Chapter 548: Chapter 548: Turned Away at the Door
“What’s up, anything else?”
“Brother, I still advise you, Mr. Jin is not soone you can provoke. If there’s no relation, it’s best not to ss with him; otherwise, when trouble cos, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to leave the town.”
“Heh, thanks for the heads-up, big bro. Don’t worry, I know my limits.”
“Alright, if you need anything, contact in ti.”
“Alright, big bro, I won’t bother you any longer then. I’ll leave it at that.”
After bidding farewell to the hunter, Lin Yi left the yard with Hei Lang.
...
“Hei Lang, did you hear that?”
“Hehe, of course, I heard it. What ‘legend’, a kitchen knife repellin’ eighteen n, he’s never seen . I could take on fifty by myself with ease.”
“This ti, we might really have to rely on you. You rember the place he ntioned just now, right?”
“I rember it, big brother. You an we head straight to that estate now?”
“Exactly, directly to the estate. Since it’s like this, we’ll find him directly, and I believe, all the mysteries should unravel.”
“Alright, I got it.”
Hei Lang just nodded. Although he knew that heading there might not yield any results, he only needed to do as Lin Yi commanded.
Before, it was because he hadn’t inquired about this matter, but now that he knew, he realized the place was not hard to find at all.
Lin Yi walked in the direction the hunter had indicated and, before long, saw a very large estate appear before him.
There was even a large archway in front of the estate.
It was rare to see such grand households in the town.
“Big brother, this is damn impressive.”
Even Hei Lang, who was worldly, had never seen such a majestic archway.
It was inscribed with the golden characters “Jin Mansion.”
“Seems like we’ve got the right place this ti.”
“Big brother, I feel that if we rush in recklessly, we may not be able to et him in person.”
“Who knows, let’s try and see.”
Hei Lang was helpless, feeling they were facing an insurmountable barrier. Eventually, the two of them continued walking forward.
No sooner had they stepped under the archway than two n in black descended from above, blocking Lin Yi’s path.
“Stop, what are you doing?”
The two n spoke with a harsh tone.
“Oh, it’s like this. Please announce that we have sothing important for Mr. Jin to handle.”
“Sothing important for Mr. Jin? Have you made an appointnt with him beforehand?”
“An appointnt has been made.”
“Made an appointnt? What is your na?”
“Lin Yi.”
“Wait a mont.”
Lin Yi thought that he could simply say a few words and fool the n.
But to his surprise, after he finished speaking, one of them pulled out a tablet and began to carefully check the nas of the visitors.
“I’ve looked all around here, and there’s no Lin Yi, you must be lying to . Tell , what is your real purpose?”
“Sorry about that, I must’ve rembered wrong. Right now, I really have urgent matters, I’d like to et Mr. Jin, so please announce my arrival.”
“I told you, without an appointnt, no one can see Mr. Jin. If you know what’s good for you, leave this place quickly.”
“How can you talk to my big brother like that, are you seeking death?”
Hei Lang, who had been standing behind, couldn’t stand it any longer, took a couple of steps forward, and stood in front of Lin Yi.
“What do you an, brother? Looking to have a go?”
The two were tasked with guarding the entrance to the estate, so naturally, they were not afraid of Hei Lang.
“Co on, let’s give it a try if it’s not too much trouble.”
“Enough, no fighting.”
Suddenly, Lin Yi shouted, and Hei Lang reluctantly stepped back.
Yet his fists were clenched tight, ready to launch an attack at any mont.
“Big brother, is there really no room for negotiation? We truly have very important matters with Mr. Jin.”
“I’ve told you, Mr. Jin isn’t soone you can just see whenever you want. Leave this place quickly and pretend nothing happened today.”
“Alright, I understand. Well then, we’ll leave.”
Lin Yi had just arrived, only to be turned away.
However, he should have been very clear in his mind.
To et such a significant figure was probably not as simple as he had imagined.
“Big brother, are we really going to just walk away? Aren’t we going to try to force our way in?”
“How do you think their martial arts compare?”
“This…”
Hei Lang hesitated upon being asked this question, as if he really didn’t know how to answer.
To be honest, without having fought with the two, he could only make a rough guess based on their steps and posture.
“Both are light on their feet, and when they move, you can feel that they have practiced Qinggong. If so, they must be skilled fighters. But if I were to make a move, I’m not sure they’d be a match for .”
“Are you confident you can beat them both?”
“Big brother, that shouldn’t be a problem. Should we go back then?”
“No, I was just wondering if you are confident you could take them. So what if a few more like them jumped out, could you still handle it?”
Hei Lang didn’t know how to respond, his mind quickly trying to figure out how to extricate themselves from this.
“Besides, did you take a careful look? On the left, there seems to be traps set up.”
“What? Traps?”
Hei Lang had been focusing only on the two n in front of him and hadn’t noticed whether there were any traps around.
However, with this reminder, he started to grasp the situation.
“Are you saying you noticed sothing earlier?”
“Yes, I’ve been watching. There must be traps around, and if they’re activated, neither of us will be able to escape, no matter how high your martial arts skills are. We’ll fall right into their net.”
