Chapter 1169: Lack of Prestige
"What are you doing with me?" Looking at Princess Yanhong's serious eyes again, there was no joke, Lin Xuanzhong frowned highly.
However, after staring at the other party for a while, Lin Xuanzhong found that maybe the other party had suffered a lot outside during this time, and his face had completely lost the arrogance he had in Divine Sword City, but instead had the same weakness as when he first met Zhang Yulong, and that kind of demeanor really made Lin Xuanzhong ruthless.
"I want to go out into the world with you," after looking at Lin Xuanzhong for a while, Princess Yanhong gave a very straightforward answer.
That firm tone surprised Lin Xuanzhong again, as if there was another Zhang Yulong in front of him, so that Lin Xuanzhong didn't know what to say for a while, and finally because he couldn't understand Princess Yanhong's thoughts, he simply stopped talking about it, and instead lowered his head and ate his own food silently, until Feng Zhan came over and talked to him about establishing contact with the Ouyang family.
"The Ouyang family wants to know our specific situation, let us send a credible person to negotiate with us, about this matter, Lin Feng, what do you think?"
"Promise them. ”
"Don't you take any precautions?" It is indeed good to form an alliance with the Ouyang family, but this kind of willingness to be its subordinate and completely trust the other party still makes Feng Zhan feel not too cautious, in case the Ouyang family uses them as guns, the consequences are unimaginable, but listening to Lin Xuanzhong's meaning is to reach a cooperative relationship with the Ouyang family as quickly as possible, which makes Feng Zhan a little puzzled.
"Let them tell us something specific about the Shadow Order, and if they can, a general plan for how they deal with the situation. ”
"But will they believe us?" If you consider the time, Feng Zhan can accept Lin Xuanzhong's statement.
"Why don't you believe it? Surely their eyes already know the fact that we are at odds with the Shadow Order, and if they are really enemies on three sides, they will not refuse to accept our assistance. ”
"You need a credible person to negotiate with them, which do you think is better, me or Qian?" nodded, and Feng Zhan went down thoughtfully.
"This ...... Let me think about it," I hadn't thought of the question that Feng Zhan was asking now, but when Lin Xuanzhong felt that what Feng Zhan said was very reasonable, and he or Qian Ying needed to negotiate with the Shadow Family, Lin Xuanzhong suddenly thought of something that he would never forget, a few months ago, Zhou Wenfeng and Qin Chong's tragic deaths.
When he was fighting with Rao Guo in the west of the Blue Country, he sent two people to be lobbyists, but only those two terrifying human heads came back, and the shocking scene still made Lin Xuanzhong's heart tremble in retrospect, even if he was used to seeing life and death, the haze engraved in his heart was still indelible.
"This trip is a bit dangerous, Qian Ying is not cautious enough, I think I'd better go," Seeing that Lin Xuanzhong was silent, Feng Zhan thought that Lin Xuanzhong was difficult to decide, so he directly stood up as a brother, but this was exactly what Lin Xuanzhong couldn't accept.
"Let me think about it again," there may have been too many things that bothered him before, Lin Xuanzhong didn't expect that an alliance with the Ouyang family would require one of their three brothers to negotiate in person, and now this statement made it so difficult to refute that Lin Xuanzhong was directly in trouble.
"Without further ado, I'll make preparations earlier, and after I leave, you and Qian should take care of this place," Lin Xuanzhong was thinking about the question, Feng Zhan had already thought it through, in Feng Zhan's opinion, Lin Xuanzhong didn't need to waste any more time, the three of them had to have one person go, and the most suitable person was naturally him.
"Don't worry, I'll be careful," If you want to go to the Ouyang family, you have to pass through the territory of the Shadow Organization, this trip is dangerous and unpredictable, and that's all Feng Zhan can say.
Feng Zhan's righteous and awe-inspiring attitude of completely disregarding personal interests made Lin Xuanzhong understand the responsibility of being a brother, which he never had, and the reckless things he did in the army before were just his youth and ignorance, he was not as great as Feng Zhan.
"Thank you, Second Brother," Feng Zhan's words were heartfelt, and Lin Xuanzhong, who was determined to confront the Shadow Organization, could only turn all his hesitation into gratitude to Feng Zhan.
"En," and in the face of Lin Xuanzhong's sincere thanks, Feng Zhan just smiled lightly and nodded, and then slowly left Lin Xuanzhong's sight.
With the wind fighting gone, Lin Xuanzhong directly felt a little more worried that no one could resolve for him.
"You guys go out to practice, I have something to think about," After a while, he got up and glanced at Zhang Yulong and Princess Yanhong, Lin Xuanzhong's eyes revealed a bit of solemnity.
"Okay," Seeing that Lin Xuanzhong's face was wrong, Zhang Yulong didn't dare to laugh casually, and after giving Princess Yanhong a look, he went out first.
"Brother Feng, good news," a long time passed, and when it was time to eat at noon, Zhang Yulong hurriedly ran over to report a piece of good news to Lin Xuanzhong.
"What's the matter?"
"Brother Feng, there are a large number of people who want to take refuge in us outside, and there is also an eighth-order martial cultivator, and they are all waiting to see you. ”
"Eighth-Order Martial Cultivator!" With a silent recitation, Lin Xuanzhong stopped the dishes and chopsticks, a little excited in his heart, but he couldn't be happy.
"There is not only one eighth-order martial cultivator, but also several seventh-order martial cultivators, they all came to join us. ”
"Let's go and have a look," Seeing Zhang Yulong so excited, he nodded, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't continue to eat with peace of mind.
"I'll take you there," On the other side, Zhang Yulong still maintained the excitement he had when he came, and directly led Lin Xuanzhong outside.
"Who is the person in charge here, why don't you show up yet?" Before Lin Xuanzhong could get closer, a flying voice in the crowd came from afar, causing Lin Xuanzhong to frown.
"It's me," Immediately after, when the people surrounding the eighth-order martial cultivator glanced at each other, and then looked at Lin Xuanzhong, Lin Xuanzhong, who was still walking, replied directly.
"Are you really the person in charge here?" Following the direction from which the voice came, those newcomer martial cultivators looked at Lin Xuanzhong one after another, and one of them even questioned Lin Xuanzhong directly. Because compared to those high-level martial cultivators who received them before, Lin Xuanzhong's temperament and strength were not outstanding.
"Welcome to everyone," that person questioned in front of so many people, which undoubtedly damaged Lin Xuanzhong's face, and after frowning again, Lin Xuanzhong, who was a little dissatisfied, could only reluctantly greet generously.
"A few friends came from afar, please go to the living room first, "The next time, Qian Ying, who was not far away, saw Lin Xuanzhong's difficulties and immediately helped.
"Who are you?" But the person who asked before didn't buy it, and also questioned Qian Ying's identity.
"Under Qian Ying, he is the sworn brother of Lin Commander," Qian Ying was a little embarrassed when asked by the other party, but in order to attract people for Lin Xuanzhong, he still smiled and introduced himself to those people.
"A few please," including those eighth-order martial cultivators, those people all looked domineering, under the strange gaze of those people around them, it made Lin Xuanzhong feel that the prestige he had established here was not enough at all, and the reason for this may be that he had not shown his true strength in front of everyone, so that he could not be convinced by everyone, this situation was somewhat similar to the fact that he was promoted to general by Zhao Wu at the beginning, but now Lin Xuanzhong did not feel the need to show his true strength to these people.
When Lin Xuanzhong became more and more dissatisfied with the attitude of those people, Zhang Yulong on the side also felt a little bad, and it seemed that things were not developing in the direction he expected.
"Wait, since you are the head of the crowd, you must have something extraordinary, I sincerely come to your refuge, I just hope that your Excellency is a convincing person, I wonder if your Excellency can give me an eye-opener?" Just when Zhang Yulong felt that the big thing was not good, the person who spoke just now made a serious request to Lin Xuanzhong with a straight face.
The other party's request was reasonable, after all, anywhere in the Northern Regions, he spoke with strength, and Lin Xuanzhong originally wanted to satisfy the other party, but after seeing that many people around him showed that kind of expectation with the same gaze, the sudden rebellious psychology made him decide not to do that.
"If a few people are sincere in joining the alliance, Lin will naturally welcome it, if it is just a formality, please feel free," under the disbelieving eyes of those people, Lin Xuanzhong's resistance to them became stronger and stronger, maybe showing his skills was just a trivial matter, but his self-esteem and will did not allow him to do that, especially for those who did not believe in him.
"Could it be that this is Your Excellency's hospitality?" Lin Xuanzhong's refusal directly caused the other party's dissatisfaction, and the person who asked the person just now questioned Lin Xuanzhong's personality in front of everyone. In this way, Lin Xuanzhong's prestige was damaged again.
"Lin is busy with affairs, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, please forgive a few people, "It's good that like-minded people want to join them, but the strength of the people who come is too strong doesn't seem to be good, Lin Xuanzhong finds it difficult to accept the eighth-order martial arts cultivation with his prestige."
"Farewell," those people came from afar, but the host had such a posture, not to mention that he had no strength, and he had such an arrogant attitude, which made the people who came to see if Lin Xuanzhong was worthy of their refuge directly dispelled the idea of taking refuge in Lin Xuanzhong. Seven or eight people, including those eighth-order martial cultivators, said they would leave, and they had no intention of staying.
When Zhang Yulong was thinking about why Lin Xuanzhong didn't show his hands to those people, and he thought it was very simple to do that, Qian Ying walked up to Lin Xuanzhong's side, "Third brother, why don't I go and talk to them?"
Qian Ying meant to help Lin Xuanzhong stop those people, because in Qian Ying's opinion, Lin Xuanzhong's attitude towards those people just now was indeed a bit arrogant and not stable enough.
