Chapter 367: 367

Feeling terrified and hopeless, Song Zhe stammered in a quivering voice .

What he said, however, was so ridiculous that the others smiled wryly .

The fact was that Lin Xun just gave Song Zhe and his cousin a good beating! It was very unlikely that he would regret it now merely because of a few threatening words .

Having regained his composure and thought for a moment, Lin Xun was about to speak when Shi Yu came striding along, with a scowl on his face, “Lin Xun, leave it with me . ”

Then he bent down in front of Song Zhe and gave him a slightly pitying look, “You could have stayed out of this, if you had not been so stupid as to stand up for Song Chonghe . “

“Childe Shi——!”

Shi Yu’s overt hostility was totally unexpected, making Song Zhe overwhelmed by anger and astonishment

“Don’t get mad at me . Actually, I feel great sympathy for you . Tell me, your fiancee is called Jin Rong, isn’t she?”

Shi Yu asked softly .

Song Zhe got startled for a moment, and then he asked in annoyance, “What do you mean?”

The others felt confused too .

His finger pointing at Song Chonghe who stood several meters away, Shi Yu continued, “A few days ago, this guy confided a secret at a dinner party . He said he had screwed your fiancee Jin Rong . ”

Song Zhe’s fiancee cheated on Song Zhe and went to bed with his own cousin Song Chonghe? The words left everyone dumbfounded and they thought how malicious the lie was!

Song Zhe glared angrily as if about to explode, “Stop defaming my fiancee, you bloody fucking idiot!” he roared, on the verge of flaring up .

Just at this moment, Shi Yu uttered some words quietly in his ears . Then he patted Song Zhe on his shoulder with pity, “Keep your eyes open . ”

To people’s amazement, after hearing what Shi Yu murmured to him, Song Zhe suddenly went out of his mind and completely froze, as if struck by a flash of lightning .

“Don’t believe him, Song Zhe! He was a liar! I would never do such things to you!”

In the distance, Song Chonghe bellowed .

“I…”

Song Zhe put on a dubious face, however .

It seemed that what Shi Yu said secretly was so convincing that Song Zhe started to doubt Song Chonghe .

People were shocked to realize that the “lie” Shi Yu told could be true, which meant that Song Chonghe was a despicable person who cuckolded his own cousin!

How contemptible that was! How could he treat his cousin in that way!

And the irony was that the poor cuckold was the first to speak up for Song Chonghe .

Considering all of this, Song Zhe was indeed a miserable fool .

“Shi Yu, you will pay for this!”

Burning with anger, Song Chonghe spat out blood and let out a harsh growl .

Having been beaten up by Lin Xun, he was even involved in such nasty scandal . He felt so humiliated and if the scandal got about, he would definitely be spat at by everyone!

As for Song Zhe, people could tell from his gloomy, depressed look that he was in great agony .

“Hmm, interesting . ”

Shi Yu replied with a sardonic laugh, saying drily, “You think I will be intimidated by your threat? If you were Song Yi, I may have scruples about offending you . But you and Song Zhe? Who do you think you are? “

“You—”

The face of Song Chonghe became livid and distorted with fury .

“Cut the crap . You are welcome to take revenge on me anytime you like . ”

Shi Yu continued coldly .

These two cousins did infuriate him because they kept provoking Lin Xun throughout the feast .

If he just stood by and allowed Lin Xun to be humiliated, he could not say that he was a friend of Lin Xun!

Besides, he acted in this way to take blame for everything . He hoped that the Song family would hold grudge against him, rather than Lin Xun, since Lin Xun was in a difficult situation now .

“Great! Great! I will never forget what happened today!”

With gritted teeth, Song Chonghe struggled to rise with his last strength and cast a resentful glance at Shi Yu and Lin Xun .

He had suffered great humiliation today and he didn’t want to stay here for any additional insult . He had no choice but to leave with Song Zhe .

“You can also take revenge on me anytime you like . ”

At this moment, a beautiful and pleasant voice rang in the air . It was Bai Lingshi, the lady who was like a perfectly sedate onlooker amid all the quarrel and uproar . Now her words surprised all the attendees, including Lin Xun and Shi Yu, as they wondered why she intervened in this matter .

To be frank, she might probably become an enemy of the Song family for doing so!

Even Song Chonghe and Song Zhe couldn’t believe their eyes .

“Nothing would have happened but for me . So I don’t think I can just stay out of it . ”

Bai Lingshi still looked calm and aloof when she continued, “What’s more, this is a gathering of the Bloodthirsty Camp . I should side with the camp trainees when they have a clash with others . ”

Her brief explanation did make sense, but many people still entertained the thought that she could have other motives .

The two cousins, who had been embarrassed by Shi Yu because of his overt hostility, were totally stunned when they heard what Bai said . They felt crushed by her supportive attitude towards Shi Yu .

The most surprising thing happened when Zhao Yin said calmly to Song Chonghe and his cousin, “It was you who behaved improperly in the first place . If you insist on seeking revenge, count me in . ”

All of a sudden, Song Chonghe and Song Zhe collapsed . They panicked and became so frustrated that they had no idea what to do .

Lin Xun alone would not constitute a threat . Despite his powerful fighting capacity, he was as small as an ant before the sheer immensity of the Song family .

But things were different when Shi Yu, Bai Lingshi and Zhao Yin also got involved .

The Keystone Business behind Shi Yu could rival the Song family . Besides, as the son of the Fortune God Shi, Shi Yu had extremely high status in his family . Thus, Song Chonghe was not sure whether he could manage to get back at Shi Yu someday .

And Bai Lingshi, the granddaughter of the legendary Jinghai Marquis in the empire, was also a close relative of many royal members . She was a lady of high distinction . Song Chonghe didn’t have the guts to make her angry .

The last one was Zhao Yin . His surname, Zhao, explicitly demonstrated his identity as a real royal member . More importantly, his great grandfather Bowang Marquis was the clan cousin of the emperor .

With the three important figures standing firmly on the side of Lin Xun, no wonder Song Chonghe and Song Zhe had completely lost their head .

Song Zhe felt even worse . What did he get? He got a good beating, a clan cousin who screwed his fiancee, and finally, three powerful enemies, namely Shi Yu, Bai Lingshi and Zhao Yu .

His life was a tragedy!

Song Zhe and Song Chonghe staggered out of the Smiles of Beauties as if in a trance . Both of them were descendants of an eminent family, but now they were reduced to such miserable state . How pathetic!

…

All the tension and stillness dispersed when the Song cousins left .

As Lin Xun resumed his seat, Shi Yu asked the maids to serve another feast and offered a toast to the attendees . In this way, he livened up the mood . It seemed that there were not any conflicts or unpleasant frictions just now .

In fact, the moment Shi, Bai and Zhao chose to side with Lin Xun, the problem was resolved and no more accident was likely to occur .

After all, the Song family was unlikely to make a complete break with these aristocratic descendants and especially with their powerful families for the sake of two clan members, however annoyed they were .

Such was the invisible power of long-established clans . It could be felt in every minute detail, and wielded tremendous influence .

By contrast, Lin Xun seemed more aggressive and straightforward when he directly returned blows for insults .

His rule was to teach whoever dared to infuriate him a good lesson, and he didn’t care who that guy was .

“Lin Xun, it delighted me to see you strike them hard! But you were not apprehensive about the consequence at all?”

The fatty, Ye Qi, asked curiously .

The rest were interested in his answer as well .

Lin Xun smiled and said with a shrug, “Even if I felt apprehensive, I would not allow them to ride roughshod over me . “

Most attendees were not satisfied with the answer, but they found Lin Xun’s act understandable when they considered how Shi Yu treated the Song cousins after Lin Xun was offended . They supposed that Lin Xun did that in the belief that Shi Yu would help him .

However, only Shi Yu and Ning Meng knew that Lin Xun would not consider too much when he decided to take actions .

They were clear about it when they were still in the Bloodthirsty Camp .

“Your current fighting capacity is enough to secure you a good ranking in the Nation Test . Why did you miss the test?”

Bai Lingshi asked unexpectedly .

Dressed in a white gown, she was a beautiful, elegant lady who was in the limelight because of her look and her status . The minute she started to talk, everyone concentrated on her .

A few attendees exchanged meaningful looks .

Indeed, Bai Lingshi directly sat next to Lin Xun after she entered the hall, which could be regarded as a sheer coincidence at that moment though .

Then she meddled in the strife between Lin Xun and the Song cousins . Though she provided a reasonable explanation, people still believed that there was more to the story .

And now she was even asking Lin Xun what happened to him before . Naturally, there would be speculation about their relationship .

But for the huge gap of status between Lin Xun and Bai, people would have doubt whether she came to the feast just for him .

Nobody noticed a slight frown on Zhao Yin’s face, accompanied by a dangerous glint passing fleetingly across his eyes .

Bai’s question was also out of Lin Xun’s expectation . He was a little surprised and then said with regret, “It was only after the Nation Test that I reached the Sea Spirit Realm . Before that, it was hard for me to perform well in the test . ”

After hearing this, people came to understand .

Suddenly, Ning Meng shouted in astonishment, “Oh god! You mean that you just reached the Sea Spirit Realm about twenty days ago and now you are able to beat Song Chonghe and Song Zhe so easily?”

His words made everyone realize how awfully mighty Lin Xun was if he was telling the truth! His fighting capacity far surpassed that of those who had just reached the Sea Spirit Realm! They looked at Lin Xun in awe as they thought .

But Lin Xuefeng, who sat beside Lin Xun, was not as astounded as the others . Anyway, he saw how Lin Xun rose to the next level with his own eyes, not to mention the extraordinary scene when Lin Xun broke through .

Therefore, he appeared calm while others were deeply impressed by the power of Lin Xun .

Just then, a sweet but icy voice of a woman came from outside the hall, saying, “Who is Lin Xun! Get over here!”
