C40 Zhou Mingzhi
Although the citizens had scoffed at Lin Long for provoking Zhou Zhi Ming because of his womanly looks, they couldn't help but admire Lin Long's tenacity. He accepted the challenge even though he clearly knew that the other party was much stronger than them without hesitation.
Of course, those who were benevolent would see wisdom, while some people felt that Lin Long's way of doing things was extremely foolish.
Zhou Mingzhi only came to Chuxi Town on the day before the day of the competition. From this, it could be seen that he did not put his opponent, Lin Long, in his eyes at all.
Before coming to the Chuxi Town, Zhou Mingzhi first went to his father-in-law's home to pay respects to his mother-in-law. After chatting for a short period of time, he finally left the Su Family.
During this period of time, he did not go to see Su Ranran. Of course, Su Tian Hua also wanted Su Ranran to meet Zhou Mingzhi, but Zhou Mingzhi had directly rejected him.
"Your son-in-law will definitely only see Miss Su after teaching that shameless disciple Lin Long a lesson. Otherwise, how would he have the face to see Miss Su?" These were Zhou Mingzhi's exact words.
After leaving the Su Clan, Zhou Mingzhi went straight to an inn in the marketplace.
Zhou Mingzhi had been visited not long after he stayed at this hotel.
"Young master, there is someone outside who wishes to meet you. He claims to be the Fang family's patriarch, Fang Feiyang." The servant said to Zhou Mingzhi who was in the room.
"Clan head of the Fang family, Fang Feiyang? "Why did he come to see me?" Zhou Mingzhi was somewhat surprised.
Although his father's reputation in Black Wind City was very high, he was still his father's son after all. Moreover, he was still young, so even though he was talented in martial arts, he was not worthy of a family head coming to visit him.
Even though he felt it was strange, he knew that the etiquette couldn't be lacking, so Zhou Mingzhi quickly went out to greet him.
After exchanging a few pleasantries in the living room, the other party said something unexpected, "Young Master Zhou is a dragon amongst men, his future achievements are limitless, so Young Master Zhou will not make things difficult for the Lin Family's Lin Long, right?"
"What do you mean?" Zhou Mingzhi frowned.
"Haha, although Lin Long seems to be arrogant, but he is still a good person, I am afraid that the last incident was really an accident, so I have the guts to plead for Little Brother Lin, I hope that young master Zhou will stop right there, and not make things too much trouble for Lin Long." Fang Feiyang laughed.
"Elder Fang, I was forced to do so because of Ming Zhi, after all, Su Ranran is my fiancee. However, since Elder Fang has pleaded so much, I shall take a look at the situation." Zhou Mingzhi replied.
Since Fang Feiyang had personally paid a visit, if he appeared to be too unyielding, it would definitely embarrass both sides.
"Alright, alright, I hope young master Zhou can give me some face." After begging again and again, Fang Feiyang then left.
The Fang family used to be enemies with the Lin family, why did this Fang Feiyang come personally to plead for Lin Long? Could it be that the Lin Clan had given the Fang Clan some benefits? After thinking about it, Zhou Mingzhi felt that this was the only possibility.
However, he did not take this matter to heart.
However, before he could even sit down, someone came to visit again.
The ones who came this time were Zuo Han, Zuo Zuo Zuo, and Jian Lan. What was even more unexpected was that these two people were also here to plead for Lin Long, and they even brought two precious pills.
What ability did Lin Long have to make the two alchemists plead for him like that? Zhou Mingzhi's mouth twitched.
One must know that alchemists were a rare species in the whole of Chaotic Continent. It was fine even if Zuo Ha didn't say anything, but with this light blue network of people, even his father would not be able to catch up.
It was just that this kind of person came to plead on Lin Long's behalf.
However, he was the son of a great general of Black Wind City. Having been influenced by his father since he was young, he had always been determined to become an expert capable of commanding the three armies. How could such a person possibly tolerate his fiancée being humiliated behind him?
Therefore, even though his heart was wavering, Zhou Zhi Ming continued to feign ignorance.
After that was the Lin Family's Patriarch, Lin Qingshan, who personally came to plead for Lin Long. Although he was biased against the Lin Family because of Lin Long, with the previous two groups of people, Zhou Zhi Ming did not dare to give Lin Qingshan face.
Of course, he still chose to remain ambiguous towards the matter of challenging Lin Long as he had chosen to do before.
Fortunately, after Lin Qingshan, no one else came to visit and plead for Lin Long. Otherwise, Zhou Zhi Ming would really be afraid that he would be shaken.
However, the pleading of these people made him curious about Lin Long, curious about who this Lin Long was, to actually be able to make these people plead for him.
To be able to get people like Jian Lan to plead for him, this Lin Long was definitely not an ordinary person. At this time, Zhou Zhi Ming was actually anxious to fight with Lin Long as soon as possible.
Geniuses were all combats, not to mention that it had been a long time since Zhou Zhi Ming had met an opponent that he could fight with.
After leaving Zhou Zhi Ming's inn, Lin Qingshan and the butler that came with him took off their bamboo hats.
There was no sun today, so it was really strange for the two of them to be wearing such big bamboo hats.
"Master, no one noticed us along the way." At this time, the butler, Elder Liu, said.
"En, that's good." Lin Qingshan nodded.
He came to plead for Lin Long this time, without the intention of letting Lin Long know, because given Lin Long's current personality, who knows what kind of consequences would occur if he were to know that Lin Long had come to plead for him.
"Although this Zhou Zhiming seems very polite and friendly on the surface, there's a good chance that he won't show any mercy." Butler Liu said worriedly.
"I hope he can suppress his strength when the time comes." Lin Qingshan sighed.
"It's hard to say, I can only hope that young master Lin Long's luck will be better." Elder Liu was still as worried as ever. Then, he seemed to have thought of something as he continued, "If there really is danger, how about you personally make a move, Old Master?"
"No." Lin Qingshan immediately shook his head, "This kind of challenge has its own rules, I cannot break these rules just because I want to take care of myself. If that's the case, I'm afraid our Lin Family will never be able to lift up its head again in Black Wind City."
"This can only be left to fate." Elder Liu said helplessly.
They were worried for a while before they resumed their journey.
Lin Long did not know of all of this, at the moment, he was in his courtyard busy with matters regarding the Secret Arts.
