Chapter 100: Checking in at the Danxi Palace, Obtaining the Bloodline of the Ancient Tu-Floating Tribe
The end of this battle came quicker than most had anticipated. Moreover, before Lin Yan took action, hardly anyone would have imagined he would resort to such methods.
Therefore, when they saw Song Qing, who had disappeared without a trace, the onlookers' gazes towards Lin Yan became much more wary.
"Brother Lin Yan, turns out you're quite ruthless."
"Quite a contrast from your usual demeanor."
Even Xia Zhilan felt somewhat surprised. Her delicate face showed a hint of bewilderment. She hadn't expected the seemingly harmless youth from before to reveal such terror when pushed.
"Hehe, little girl, you don't understand."
"Auntie Su should teach you how to read men."
"Men like Lin Yan are the most dangerous kind. Although he usually seems harmless, it's just a façade. When he really strikes, he's much more vicious than those who constantly brag about their ruthlessness. Those people aren't fit to shine his shoes."
Su Xuan chuckled, explaining to Xia Zhilan.
"Auntie Su, did you already see through Brother Lin Yan's true nature?" Xia Zhilan couldn't help but ask Su Xuan.
Su Xuan smiled in response, "How can someone worthy of Master Yan's attention be ordinary? If he really were as harmless as he appeared, he wouldn't have survived until now. After all, this world is a survival of the fittest."
Xia Zhilan nodded, only partially understanding. She found the young man in front of her even more intriguing.
Meanwhile, Lin Yan quickly turned his gaze to the two supervisors.
He smiled and said, "Gentlemen, am I eligible for that final spot now?"
The two supervisors couldn't help but twitch their mouths. Although Lin Yan was smiling, after what had just happened, they knew he wasn't an easy person to deal with. Despite his current demeanor, if he went berserk again, who knows, he might grab them by their necks and plan to burn them alive.
Thinking this, the two supervisors couldn't afford to offend Lin Yan. They quickly responded, "Of course, Mr. Lin Yan, you are qualified. We are very assured to give you the final spot."
Lin Yan smiled and didn't say anything more.
He soon noticed that Su Xuan had prepared a carriage and was ready to depart. Lin Yan followed suit and boarded the carriage.
Along the way, Xia Zhilan introduced another companion to Lin Yan.
This person was named Liu Yi. He was also participating in the battle for the Danxi Palace this time. However, compared to the previous Song Qing, Liu Yi appeared much more amiable when facing Lin Yan.
"Brother Lin Yan, Brother Lin Dong, nice to meet you both. I am Liu Yi."
After Xia Zhilan's introduction, Liu Yi quickly greeted Lin Yan and Lin Dong.
Then, Liu Yi turned his gaze to Lin Yan and said, "Brother Lin Yan, your methods earlier truly opened my eyes. With you guaranteeing this battle at the Danxi Palace, it's a huge relief for me!"
He expressed his admiration for Lin Yan without reservation.
"Hehe, Brother Liu Yi is joking. Perhaps, when the time comes, you'll win against Miss Zhilan and Miss Xia, leaving me with no chance to make a move."
Lin Yan smiled back at Liu Yi.
He was always like this—respectful to those who respected him.
Liu Yi responded, "Then I'll rely on Brother Lin Yan's good words."
With a smile, Liu Yi gestured his respect towards Lin Yan.
Then, bidding farewell to Lin Yan, he boarded another carriage.
After all, with so many people going to the Danxi Palace this time, and with the wealth of the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, they had hired several carriages for a comfortable journey.
Lin Yan, Su Xuan, Lin Dong, and Xia Zhilan boarded the carriage and chatted along the way.
"Brother Lin Yan, I have to thank you for resolving the trouble for me today. If it weren't for your proper handling, Sister wouldn't have been able to come down so easily earlier."
Su Xuan first expressed her gratitude to Lin Yan. After all, Lin Yan had given her face in dealing with Song Qing's incident. So privately, Su Xuan wanted to express her gratitude to Lin Yan.
"Sister Su, there's no need to be like this. It's all part of the job."
Lin Yan responded with a faint smile.
Then, he changed the subject and continued chatting with the two women.
The atmosphere of their conversation was very harmonious, and Lin Yan was quite talkative. So before long, bursts of laughter could be heard in the carriage.
Of course, Lin Dong in the carriage couldn't help but feel a bit dumbfounded.
Looking at Lin Yan laughing and chatting with Su Xuan and Xia Zhilan, Lin Dong's head felt a bit dizzy.
When did Brother Lin Yan's relationship with these two beauties become so good?
"Brother Liu Yi, this Lin Yan seems quite something."
"Not only is his strength extraordinary, but he also knows how to please women quite well."
"I've never seen Miss Su and Miss Xia being so close to another man before."
In another carriage, a servant of Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh at the bursts of laughter coming from the front carriage. After all, Su Xuan and Xia Zhilan were like two beautiful flowers in the Yan City. Countless people had tried to win them over over the years, but no one had succeeded. Now seeing Lin Yan being so intimate with them, as someone from Yan City, he couldn't help but feel a bit sour.
"Brother Lin Yan is indeed formidable."
"However, his affairs are not something we can discuss."
"In the future, let's talk less about this kind of thing."
Liu Yi shook his head lightly, warning the servant.
Although he hadn't known Lin Yan for long, Liu Yi could see that this person was not ordinary and would definitely achieve great things in the future.
In any case, Liu Yi couldn't possibly win over the two flowers of the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce. So, whatever the final outcome between Lin Yan and the two women, it had nothing to do with him.
He just needed to maintain a good relationship with Lin Yan.
It must be said that Liu Yi was very insightful.
And this was also one of the main reasons why his family could thrive in Yan City for so long.
In the carriage, Lin Yan and the two women continued chatting.
Under their casual conversation, time passed quickly.
Lin Yan was originally still chatting.
But as he spoke, the system's voice suddenly rang out.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, Host, for completing the check-in at the Danxi Palace in Yan City!]
[Obtained Bloodline: Ancient Tu-Floating Tribe]
Hearing this sudden announcement, even Lin Yan couldn't help but be stunned.
His heart trembled, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The bloodline of the Ancient Tu-Floating Tribe?
Could even such a thing be obtained through a check-in?
