Chapter 212 - Chapter 212: Chapter 211: Meeting Zhang Yuan (2/2)
“Indeed, Brother Lin believes this as well…”
At that moment…
Huang Qingling, who had been listening to their conversation, was flabbergasted and exclaimed:
“I didn’t expect Yun Long to be so cunning; no wonder Lin Jing insisted on stopping me just now.”
“Yeah, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have known…” Li Qingqing also chimed in agreement.
As the conversation ended, Ning Yue spoke up to the group:
“Everyone, I’m very sorry…”
“Because of my affairs, you all have been implicated…”
Li Tangyu quickly reassured her:
“Miss Ning, you don’t have to say that, it makes us strangers. Rest assured, we will do our best to help you…”
Not long after parting, the group went their separate ways.
Lin Jing and Li Tangyu, among others, headed for the Zhang Family.
While Ning Yue returned to the Li Family…
Upon arriving at the Zhang Family, the gates were wide open.
It was bustling at the entrance with many people loitering nearby.
These people, Lin Jing supposed, had come to snoop for information.
After all…
The events that took place in the Demon Race Secret Realm were too shocking.
The Li Family, being a prominent family in Nanshan Immortal City, had nearly lost all of their high-end combat power in the Secret Realm.
Even an elder at the Golden Core Stage failed to escape.
Who wouldn’t be worried?
Everyone wanted to know what exactly happened inside the Demon Race Secret Realm.
Thus, this scene unfolded before them.
When they reached the entrance, they found a steward of the Zhang Family standing guard.
His role was to turn away those who sought to fish for news.
Upon seeing Li Tangyu and Lin Jing’s group approaching, the steward greeted them promptly.
“Young Master Li, Miss Li, Miss Huang…”
As a steward of the Zhang Family, he recognized Li Tangyu and the others.
He was just less familiar with Lin Jing.
After all, Lin Jing rarely visited the Zhang Family, doing so only once or twice before.
“We heard that Brother Zhang Yuan was injured, so we specifically came to pay him a visit.”
“I appreciate the concern, Young Master Li…”
After saying that, he instructed one of the guards at the gate:
“Yin Chuan, take Young Master Li and the others to see Young Master Yuan…”
“Yes…”
The guard named Yin Chuan responded.
“Please, follow me…”
Leading them, he began to walk towards the inner courtyard of the Zhang Family.
The group followed the guard through several courtyards and around a few bends, finally arriving at Zhang Yuan’s place.
After bringing the group over, the guard took his leave.
By then, Zhang Yuan had come out to greet them.
Seeing Zhang Yuan, they observed that his face was somewhat pale and his aura somewhat disordered.
Other than that, he seemed alright, suggesting his injuries were not severe.
“What brings you here…”
Zhang Yuan was visibly surprised to see Lin Jing and the others.
“We heard that you were injured, so we came to check on you…”
