Chapter 18 - 18 Arrangements



One slap knocked him out!

No matter how tough Brother Hu was, he was just a nobody who hadn’t joined a martial arts school, with mediocre talent at best. Why would Lin Zhen fear him? Especially when he was acting so arrogantly, he was just asking to be taught a lesson.

Lin Zhen bent down and pulled out the short knife from Flying Dragon’s waist: “You saw how I wielded the knife, but what does that prove? Your crappy knife is not even suitable for killing a chicken, let alone be shown off.”

With that, he casually tossed the short knife far away.

Liu Le outside the door had been scared senseless. He didn’t expect Lin Zhen to be a martial artist and turned to run.

But who was Lin Zhen?

He was a Spiritual Mind Master!

With the boost of his psychokinesis, the short knife drew a small arc in the air and stabbed into Liu Le’s buttocks!

Not the left, not the right, but straight in the middle!

Liu Le let out a painful cry and fell to his knees, thinking how unlucky he was. The knife even had navigation system attached to it.

At this stage, if Brother Hu still didn’t realize that he’d messed with the wrong person, then he was a complete fool.

This Lin Zhen was definitely not ordinary, he must be a member of a martial arts school, otherwise he couldn’t have dealt with him so easily.

How stupid of him, Lin Zhen was clearly calm and collected, yet he chose to believe Liu Le’s one-sided words, and this bastard Liu Le had really landed him in trouble this time.

Having realized this, Brother Hu’s attitude did a complete 180-degree turn.

Instant submission!

Brother Hu was an old hand, he knew who not to mess with. These martial artists were all lawless brats. If they committed any crime, it would be dealt by within the martial world, and wasn’t subject to local police jurisdiction.

Which means, if this young man killed him on the spot, though wrong, he would not be held accountable for the time being, and since Chen Changhu didn’t know any martial artists personally, no one would stand up for him. His death would mean nothing.

Suppressing his dizzy spells, Chen Changhu got up from the ground and deeply bowed to Lin Zhen.

“I didn’t recognize the greatness in front of me. I was blind, Sir. Please don’t hold it against me.”

Lin Zhen remained silent, his eyes were filled with a stern look, making Chen Changhu feel a chill run down his spine.

Chen Changhu continued: “Sir, Liu Le, that bastard deliberately set me up. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been so blind. Give me a chance, I won’t let Liu Le and his father get away with it.”

Since Chen Changhu had taken the initiative to deal with the problem, and Lin Zhen didn’t want to tangle with the likes of Liu Le, he decided to let it go.

Having taught them a lesson, Lin Zhen didn’t feel the need to show off his power, especially to common people like them: “Alright, just be more careful in the future. The world is a dangerous place.”

“Yes, yes, Brother Lin, don’t worry, I understand.”

Lin Zhen waved his hand and Chen Changhu immediately turned to leave. He even dragged Liu Le away with him. Judging from the ferocious look in his eyes, Liu Le’s family was in for a lot of trouble.

Back in the hospital room, Lin Zhen smiled and didn’t say much about the incident. His parents didn’t ask either. Their mindset was gradually changing.

Compared with the Gregorian calendar, the greatest advancement of the God Transformation Calendar was probably the medical field. People had to fight mutated beasts, and injuries were a common occurrence. Particularly in the case of external injuries, they could practically be described as ‘curing the disease as soon as the medicine arrives’. With bone healing medicine, reduction medicine, trauma medicine, both internals and externals, coupled with anti-inflammation, Lin Liye felt much better immediately.

“Dad, as the chief doctor said, your injuries are not severe. We’ll stay here for a day, and you’ll be able to be discharged tomorrow morning. At home, you just need to rest and recover. Can you tell me now, what exactly happened?”

Seeing her son’s power and that her husband was not in any serious condition, Li Qin’s spirit lifted up considerably. She immediately said, “Let me tell you. This is what happened. This morning, when your dad was setting up his stall, four people came for food. They complained about the taste of the buns and soya milk. Your dad has been in this business for almost 20 years, and he has never cheated anyone. It’s impossible for him to make any dishonest money. What they said was simply too insulting, your dad just couldn’t take it and talked back. They got physical as a result.”

Lin Zhen nodded. These people were obviously looking for trouble intentionally, but they were not martial artists. He had seen his father’s injuries, and if a martial artist had done it, the injuries wouldn’t be so mild.

This kind of thing didn’t happen in his previous life, but it happened in this one, which meant it was influenced by his own actions.

In the past few days, he didn’t offend many people, only had a big fight with the Dragon Slayer folks. If anyone was offended, it would be Ouyang Yu and Zhang Huai.

“Did they say anything else?” Lin Zhen asked Lin Liye, a sense of guilt inside him.

“They said… let me think…”

After thinking for a moment, Lin Liye suddenly remembered: “Right, those people said that if we disagree, we could find them at the Black Swan Bar.”

Lin Zhen nodded then said to his parents: “You don’t need to worry about this. We’ll stay here tonight and go home tomorrow morning. Let’s move to the villa in the martial school given to me. It’s on Gale’s turf, the security is very strong there, absolutely safe.”

His parents’ faces lit up with joy. They had lived their lives in the civilian areas and never expected to be able to live in a standalone villa in their twilight years. If word got out in the civilian area, it would be a face-saving affair.

Lin Liye had completely forgotten about his pain and began excitedly discussing their future life with Li Qin.

Seeing his cheerful parents, Lin Zhen smiled and left the sickroom.

Being able to make his parents happy brought a sense of accomplishment to Lin Zhen’s heart. However, he would never let those who hurt his parents off the hook.

He took out his phone and dialed Zhao Liang’s number.

“Lin Zhen, what is it?” Zhao Liang answered the call.’

“Brother Zhao, there’s something I need your help with.”

“We are brothers, why so formal? Just say it.” Zhao Liang was keen on befriending Lin Zhen, who was now a key cultivation target of the martial school.

“A group of people has injured my father and specifically mentioned that they are from the Black Swan Bar. Can you help me look up the background of this bar?”

“No problem. There’s nothing in Ice City that Gale can’t find out. Wait.”

After saying this, Zhao Liang hung up the phone. He called back in less than five minutes.

“I’ve found out. The behind-the-scenes boss of Black Swan is Zhang Huai, the same Zhang Huai from Dragon Slayer, also known as the Butcher. He has a bunch of societal scum under him. They do the dirty work that martial artists can’t do. I also found out who injured your father. They are all his people.”

“It is Zhang Huai after all! It must be due to me injuring Ouyang Yu last night, lost to me, and now targeting my family. Brother Zhao, this is not over.”

“Of course it’s not over. Lin Zhen, we have the moral high ground in this. In my opinion, let’s have the police arrest the assaulters first. When Zhang Huai comes, we can then negotiate and have them pay compensation.”

Offering rewards before punishment was the best way for martial artists to resolve conflicts. Lin Zhen nodded, “Let’s do that.”
