Chapter 195

After discussing with Lin Xiaowan, Su Lin woke up Xia Shiyu as well. Upon hearing from Lin Xiaowan that Su Lin was planning to confront the Song family, Xia Shiyu was stunned and then insisted on joining Su Lin, only to be decisively rejected by him.

If it were just a dozen or twenty people, Su Lin wouldn’t mind having Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu accompany him, but the information he received indicated the presence of over a hundred people.

Su Lin didn’t know exactly how many grandmasters and masters were among these hundred people, so he could only ask the two women to wait for news at home.

With over a hundred opponents, he wouldn’t be able to ensure their safety in every aspect. The thought of them getting hurt was unimaginable to Su Lin.

After breakfast, Su Lin drove to Zhao Yanyan’s house to pick her up. Together, they headed to the Qin family’s estate, where Qin Juyue was already waiting for them at the entrance.

The mood among the women was somewhat somber, given the uncertain outcome of Su Lin’s departure.

“Su Lin, we’ll wait for your return.”

“Su Lin, if you die, I’ll make sure the Song family joins you in the grave,” Lin Xiaowan stated flatly.

“Waiting for you to come home~!!”

“Su Lin, you haven’t taken me flying with lightness skill again yet. You’re not allowed to get hurt.”

Feeling the sincere concern of his close female friends, Su Lin smiled and nodded, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. You’re all just too pessimistic.”

Thinking about the future of this world, Su Lin actually wished to show them the harshness of society, but their strengths were too limited.

Shaking his head, “Go inside, I’ll leave once you’re in.”

Lin Xiaowan shook her head, “You go first, then we’ll go in.”

Not liking the atmosphere, which felt like a farewell before a dire battle, Su Lin shook his head and lightly tapped his foot on the ground, leaping away. In a few flashes, he disappeared from their sight.

Once Su Lin had left, Lin Xiaowan said, “Let’s go inside.”

“Yeah, Xiaowan, Su Lin will be alright, won’t he?” Zhao Yanyan asked, feeling uneasy.

Although they were aware that a significant event might happen, they didn’t expect it to occur so suddenly, leaving Lin Xiaowan, Xia Shiyu, and Zhao Yanyan unprepared mentally.

Lin Xiaowan assured, “Su Lin has never been at a disadvantage; he’ll definitely be fine.”

At this moment, Su Lin was leaping through the air with He Suxin.

He Suxin was astonished; being an ancient martial arts grandmaster who started training from a young age and had numerous precious resources at her disposal, it took her until her forties to reach the peak of grandmaster level. Yet, Su Lin was already a late-stage grandmaster at eighteen.

There’s a significant difference between the early and late stages of a grandmaster. While the young generation in the capital entering the grandmaster level wasn’t uncommon, that was due to the early use of medicinal herbs and treasures, which made early progress faster but later stages much harder. Yet, Su Lin had achieved such high levels at only eighteen.

He Suxin also noticed that Su Lin practiced an exceptional lightness skill, unseen and potent. Despite her extensive knowledge, she had never seen it before.

Now, fully exerting her lightness skill, she could barely keep up with Su Lin, who seemed to be moving effortlessly.
