Following Lin Xiao, two more coffins were thrown onto the ground, and Ye Chen and the others entered the banquet hall.
Without exception, these two coffins also had a large, bright red character "He" pasted on them.
The previously boisterous banquet hall fell into silence.
Zhou Yuanhe, with a stern expression, put down his wine glass and stared fixedly at Lin Xiao, who had just entered.
"Today is a joyous occasion, the fourth anniversary of the Tianxia Association. Who dares to be so presumptuous!"
Not only Zhou Yuanhe, but the heads of the other two families also stood up simultaneously, glaring with undisguised killing intent in their eyes.
"I."
Lin Xiao walked to the center of the banquet, his hands behind his back. "Lin Xiao."
Lin Xiao?
His surname is Lin?!
The utterly silent banquet hall instantly erupted into noise.
The Lin family! Besides the Lin family themselves, no one else was more familiar with them.
"Lin? Is it that Lin family? Is there anyone left from the Lin family?"
"That's impossible..."
Everything they had now was built on the ashes of the former Lin family. Yet, all of them had been involved in that matter back then. All seventy-two members of the Lin family, without exception, had been personally sent to their graves by their hands.
And now, someone surnamed Lin appears?
Zhou Yuanhe, unfazed by Lin Xiao's appearance, turned to a white-haired old man beside him. The old man's hair had a look that seemed to have stepped out of an ancient costume drama.
"Please, Elder Bai."
Zhou Yuanhe said with great respect.
This Elder Bai was the consultant of their Tianxia Association. A consultant, in reality, was their guardian. A renowned martial arts master of the current era!
It was precisely because of Elder Bai's presence that these members of the Tianxia Association had been able to lord over for so many years, never worrying about retaliation for their actions.
Anyone who foolishly came to seek death was dealt with by Elder Bai.
"Hmm."
Elder Bai, clad in a blue robe, had his hands behind his back, exuding an air of an otherworldly expert – if he hadn't been playfully flirting with a young woman beside him just moments ago, his hands not being entirely honest.
He looked at Lin Xiao in the center of the banquet, stroked his beard, and said with a condescending air, "Youngster, you still have a chance to leave now. Otherwise, don't blame this old man for bullying the young."
He scrutinized Lin Xiao for a while. Being able to carry such a large coffin meant this young man was not simple. After observing for a long time, he detected nothing that required his caution from Lin Xiao.
However, since he could carry such a large coffin, he must have some skill, at least considerable strength.
"Elder Bai is making his move."
"With Elder Bai here, this Lin family bastard is doomed!"
"Of course. Who is Elder Bai? This Lin family brat probably has never seen someone as formidable as Elder Bai in his life!"
"Hahaha..."
The unrestrained laughter from the surroundings abruptly ceased as Elder Bai walked up to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao placed his hand on Elder Bai's chest. He had no intention of wasting his breath on Elder Bai and decisively slapped his chest.
With that single move, Elder Bai stared at Lin Xiao in disbelief, his hand immediately clutching his chest.
Immediately after, a mouthful of fresh blood spurted from his mouth, and he collapsed onto the ground.
