Chapter 249: Raising Fame

Edited by Lord Immortal
Eventually, Lin Xun sighed in his heart and suppressed the killing intent in his heart. It was indeed not a real bloody fight of life and death.
Moreover, on such an occasion, it was impossible to kill Huang Jianchen.
After the fight, Lin Xun left the platform directly. When he walked out of the arena into the busy streets of Mist City, suddenly he remembered Shie Yutang.
This battle was arranged by Shie Yutang, and the result might be out of his expectations.
What kind of expression Shie Yutang had when he witnessed Huang Jianchen admiting defeat?
But soon, Lin Xun shook his head.
No matter what Shie Yutang’s thoughts were, the fight was already over. From the moment Huang Jianchen gave up, the resentment between him and Huang Jianxiong also came to an end.
It was decided before the battle started.
However, Lin Xun also knew clearly that it was impossible to let those young persons from aristocratic families stop provoking him by just relying on a battle arrangement.
Only an idiot would believe that!
But at least in Mist City, Shie Yutang would certainly not get Lin Xun in more troubles, otherwise, they would be completely disregarding Granny Wind’s will.
Lin Xun was satisfied with this result.
When he returned home, Shue Jin was drinking. He asked casually, “Is it over?”
Lin Xun just gave a ‘huh’ to Shue Jin.
There was no need to ask the result at all as Shue Jin judged Lin Xun must have won. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to be so calm and relaxed.
Shue Jin grinned, “Since the trouble has been temporarily solved, how about drinking with me for a while?”
Lin Xun sat opposite to Shue Jin and laughed, “My pleasure.”
The star-filled night sky above was bright, and the courtyard seemed particularly quiet and nice with a breeze.
Lin Xun and Shue Jin drank and chatted without discussing the duel in the arena. Everything seemed pleasant.
Chirps laid on one side, looking at them drinking large bowls with a pitiful look while drooling.
But Lin Xu directly ignored the poor appearance of Chirps. He would not let Chirps become addicted to alcohol.
Soon after, the quiet atmosphere of the courtyard was interrupted by a knock on the door, and the excited Chu Feng rushed in like a whirlwind. His eyebrows danced as he yelled, “Great! What a pleasure! You were just like the rebirth of God of War with immense power today!”
With that, he picked up a bowl and drank it.
To his astonishment, both Shue Jin and Lin Xun were all indifferent to the victory.
“Why... Why are you so calm?”
Chu Feng didn’t understand.
“Is it worth making such a fuss about that? Come on, just drink.”
Shue Jin picked up the wine bowl and cheered at Lin.
Lin Xun also looked at Chu Feng strangely and said, “Is it really worth being so happy?”
Suddenly Chu Feng felt too constrained in his heart and could not help saying, “Isn’t it worth being happy? My brother, this fight attracted the attention of the whole Mist City! You don’t know how many big shots were in the arena today! When you won, I’m sure they’re stunned too.”
Chu Feng once again became excited and talked incessantly, “These are the moments when people pay attention to and make a name for themselves. It all belongs to you, my brother!
“I can even strike my chest to guarantee that from now on, the whole Mist City will be sensationalized by this fight, and your name, my brother, will be the focus of numerous practitioners!
“Think about it: what a great honor it is?
“Hello, are you listening to me? Would you please give me some response?”
Seeing Lin Xun and Shue Jin remain indifferent, Chu Feng immediately felt frustrated.
He even began to wonder whether he was too excited or they were too indifferent.
In fact, it was not Lin Xun who was too calm. Getting fame was the last thing he wanted. ‘The wind will destroy showy wood.’ He didn’t want to be stared at by many eyes.
For Lin Xun, glory and fame were trouble. He’d like to avoid it as much as possible.
Otherwise, he would not have used the name of Master Xun to cover up his true identity.
As for Shue Jin, this Human-Gang fight between young people was no different from a game of petty jokes. Otherwise, he would not have stayed here all the time without going to the arena to watch it.
When people pursue different things, they naturally produce different reactions.
...
However, no matter how much Lin Xun disliked it, and how indifferent Shue Jin was, the impact of this fight could not be concealed and be erased.
As Chu Feng had predicted, on that very night, the rivalry fight in the arena had swept the whole city like a storm, causing a lot of noise in the streets.
And Lin Xun’s name, like a rising star embellished in the night sky of Mist City, had become a well-known young strong man.
Many people exclaimed that there was another dazzling genius in the Southwestern Province, and the rising trend was irresistible.
Some people envied him and said that Lin Xun might have gained a great reputation from the fight, but he had offended the youngsters of major forces and was doomed to encounter a lot of pressure and trouble in the future.
Even some practitioners who were going to take part in this year’s Province Test were worried when they learned that Lin Xun had also signed up to participate.
Even the young people of aristocratic families from the Forbidden City were defeated by this fellow, so who could be his opponent in the Province Test?
In a word, there were different kinds of comments.
But the impact was far from over. This fight caused such a huge visual influence because both sides were the top figures of the younger generation in their teens, which could be called a rare peak contest.
Soon afterward, news of this fight spread to the rest of the empire.
Even on the spiritual screen of the empire’s different provinces, they began to spread this news. They found some strong fighters who had rich experience in fighting and made a long and extensive detailed analysis of it. Eventually, they unanimously praised it as a classic peak fight of the Human-Gang realm, which could serve as a model for learning.
When the news spread out, it caused quite a stir in other parts of the empire. Although it was not as impressive as in the Mist City, it invisibly made Lin Xun’s name more widely known in the empire.
...
In the western part of the Empire, the Blood Army was stationed in camps.
In a rough style tent, a laugh burst out, “Damn, Lin Xun is too insidious. Making the strongest move at the very end, that’s really my good brother!”
Ning Meng was sitting in an animal leather chair and was facing a spiritual disc that was reflecting Lin Xun’s victory over Huang Jianchen on the light screen.
At this moment, Ning Meng looked excited. He beamed with joy and drank constantly as if he was even happier than the winner Lin Xun.
Shortly afterward, a guard rushed to report, “Young Master, it’s clear that the reason for the fight is that Lin Xun destroyed the cultivation of Huang Jianchen’s brother.”
Ning Meng narrowed his eyes and sneered, “I’ve wondered why my brother became so high-profile, so it was because he was bullied!”
The guard reminded him, “Young Master, it is Lin Xun who crippled his younger brother first. No one bullied him.”
Ning Meng blindfolded and scolded, “Nonsense. What virtues do the sons of the noble families have? I know them well. How could it have happened if they hadn’t provoked my brother first?”
Speaking of this, he suddenly gave another sneer, “What’s more, what’s wrong with my brother if he wants to bully people?”
The guard laughed bitterly at that moment. This kind of unreasonable remark was so full of force that only his young master dared to say it.
“Wait and see. When I return to the Forbidden City next year, I’ll first block the gate of the Huang clan, and beat Huang Jianchen to tears, or I will not be surnamed Ning!”
Ning Meng said murderously.
The guard was worried about his young master. Since he returned from the Bloodthirsty Camp, he had become increasingly lawless. No one knew how much trouble he would cause when he returned to the Forbidden City next year.
...
In the headquarter of Keystone Business in Forbidden City, a luxurious palace that could astonish normal people, more than a dozen young girls surrounded Shi Yu. They served heartily to knead his shoulders, feet, head, and serve tea...
This luxurious life could only be enjoyed by the descendants of the Empire’s Fortune God Shi.
Shi Yu comfortably rested his head on the leg of a maid while murmuring, “Huang Jianchen is not someone important as a son of an inferior family cannot set off any storm. But Shie Yutang arranged this fight. It will be somewhat difficult to deal with if Lin offended him...”
“Master, who is Lin Xun?” A young girl asked curiously with big watery eyes.
“An interesting fellow.”
Shi Yu smiled and said leisurely, “When he comes to the Forbidden City later, you have to give him a good reception. Well, this guy seems to be a virgin. That’s not a good thing. Can a man who doesn’t know women be a real man?”
Next to Shi Yu, a group of young girls couldn’t help laughing. They all had different graces and styles.
Shi Yu suddenly became serious and said, “I remember that in a few days, Keystone Business in Mist City will hold a centennial celebration, right?”
Immediately, a young girl said quickly, “Yes, it’s more than a month later.”
Shi Yu thought for a while, “Go and tell the shopkeeper of Keystone Business in Mist City. ”Invite Lin Xun to attend the celebration according to the treatment of the chief VIP. There must be no slight neglect in this!”
The group of young girls was shocked. They realized that Lin Xun probably had an unusual relationship with their young master.
