Chapter 975 Disrespectful Attitude
Baisu turned around and left. Master Guo just glanced at Ren Nanbei coldly and then followed Baisu with his son, Guo Tiantong,
A vicious look appeared on Ren Nanbei’s face. He exchanged looks with the n behind him.
“Deputy Master Ren, I’m afraid that the Hall Master is going to show her prestige to us!”
The man next to Ren Nanbei was wearing a maroon-colored cotton-padded jacket. His outfit wasn’t as luxurious as Ren Nanbei’s, and he had a bitter expression on his face. However, he appeared to be in high spirits. It could tell from his gloomy face that he was not easy to deal with.
Looking at the backs of Baisu, Master Guo and his son, who were far away, the man said in a chill voice.
This man was the Deputy Hall Master of the Branch Hall in Jing Prefecture, Jin Rubing. He was extrely scheming, and his thods were ruthless.
“I know that, but if she does sothing like killing a leader before going into battle, the faith of the troops will be shaken.”
After all, Ren Nanbei was more vicious than Lin ngya, and he had much more experience in muddling in the underworld in contrast to the Hall Master.
Regardless of whether Lin ngya would punish his n or make trouble for him, she would be at a disadvantage.
For the Hall Master, whom Ren Nanbei had never t, the girl from the Enforcent Team had just made a terrible mistake.
Lin ngya sat in the main hall of the inn, with her eyes slightly closed.
It was a sunny day today. The pedestrians outside were in a hurry, but no one took a look at the inside of this inconspicuous inn,
Shortly after, a slender figure in white quietly arrived at the main hall. She just nodded at Lin ngya and then stood behind her.
Then, Master Guo arrived with his son.
“Hall Master, I am Guo Mao. Glad to see you.”
“Hall Master, I am Guo Tiantong. It’s my honor to et you.”
Lin ngya put on a faint smile. She was very kind to her old friend.
“Master Guo, I haven’t seen you for a while. How is everything going with you?”
Lin ngya had always rembered how Guo Mao took care of her and protected her along the trade road back then.
Actually, Guo Mao was also a person with a story. Back then, he had concealed his identity and willingly beca a leader of a trade caravan because he had no other choices.
Sanjue Hall could tolerate his pasts, clear his past grievances, and give him the opportunity to start over.
Guo Mao had already beco a big shot in his place, and Sanjue Hall was his strong backing.
Therefore, Guo Mao’s appreciation for Sanjue Hall was naturally much deeper than that of the other Deputy Hall masters who joined Sanjue Hall later.
“Thank you for your caring, Hall Master. Everything is going well. To my surprise, after a few months of separation, you are totally different.”
Back then, Master Guo had a guess that Lin ngya must have an extraordinary identity. However, he didn’t expect that she was the person in charge of Sanjue Hall behind the scene.
Frankly, he was not short-sighted or stubbornly thought that won were inferior to n.
In particular, Lin ngya had established Sanjue Hall, which was the most powerful organization across three countries on her own. From this, it could be seen that her thods and sches were extraordinary.
Others firmly believed that Lin ngya was just a puppet, who had made the achievents by relying on a few of her capable subordinates.
Guo Mao, in contrast, had always thought that it was the Hall Master’s ability that enabled her to control those elites.
Honestly, he was not capable of that.
“Mr. Guo, you have improved a lot these years. I heard that you had finally found your son. Congratulations! This is a gift for you two.”
Lin ngya took a rectangular brocade box from Baisu’s hand. It was more than an arm long. When she opened the lock, they saw a machete and a short sword inside.
“Hall Master, how did you manage to obtain them?”
Guo Mao was a little excited. He was a tough man, but at this mont, he looked like a young man who was inexperienced. He was no longer mature and steady.
Guo Tiantong had a doubtful expression on his face. He had rarely seen his father reveal such a look.
With trembling hands, Guo Mao took out the machete from the brocade box and held it tightly to his chest.
“What happened 20 years ago had passed with the wind. Master Guo, you don’t need to put it in mind anymore because those people are either aged or dead. Nowadays, the belongings of the Guo family have been returned to you. From now on, you are only Guo Mao, who has nothing to do with the past.”
The reason Lin ngya said this was to persuade Master Guo to let go of the grudges held in his heart.
Guo Mao wiped the wet corners of his eyes and nodded hard at Lin ngya.
It was not until today that his grudges in the past finally ca to an end.
Putting the machete back into the brocade box, Guo Mao managed to calm down and then lowered his voice to say.
“Hall Master, for your information, those guys are aggressive, and they ca here with no good intentions. Just now, they discussed buying so gifts for you, so Tiantong and I could get rid of them. They probably will take the opportunity to make difficulties for and Tiantong later, so I’m afraid that it is inconvenient for us to say so things.”
Of course, Lin ngya knew that with such a gift, Guo Mao and Guo Tiantong, the father and son, had been completely loyal to her.
Therefore, she had nothing to worry about in front of her followers.
“No problem. I didn’t invite you here to help argue with them. It’s unnecessary. I don’t take them seriously,” Lin ngya said.
Lin ngya curled her lips into a sneer. She had already had a plan since she got the ssage.
Moreover, although Sanjue Hall had developed rapidly, it was bound to have such a problem because of its unstable staffing base.
It was just the tip of the iceberg that had been exposed in advance, so she could use it as a warning to those who tried to provoke her dignity.
“That’s good, but don’t take it lightly, Hall Master.”
Guo Mao’s concern had its reason. Lin ngya nodded and accepted his kind reminder.
As soon as they finished speaking, there were so noises outside.
A few n walked into the inn with various gifts in their hands. However, when they saw the young woman leisurely having tea with Master Guo and his son, they had a little contempt inside.
Those who had been to the headquarters reported that the Hall Master was a woman.
But they didn’t expect that she was so young. She had a peerlessly beautiful appearance, but unfortunately, she looked so cold and proud that they had no courage to approach her.
...
“Hall Master, it’s the first ti eting you. Here are so gifts for you. I hope you will like them.”
Lin ngya did not even give a glance at the dozen colorful gift boxes placed in front of her.
She only revealed a faint smile and didn’t say anything.
The other three people were fine. Although they didn’t co with Guo Mao and Guo Tiantong, they didn’t associate with the three Deputy Hall Masters who were going to make trouble.
Ren Nanbei secretly exchanged a glance with Jin Rubing. They were aware that the Hall Master embarrassed them on purpose.
In their opinion, Lin ngya was so narrow-minded that she provoked them with such low-end ans. Then they had dirty thoughts for this female Hall Master.
For a mont, the atmosphere was a little awkward. Ren Nanbei, however, was a tactful person, and he imdiately forced a smile and said respectfully.
“Hall Master, please forgive us for not welcoming you earlier. rely, we needed to gather so many people here. That is why we have delayed welcoming you. Hall Master, if you are not happy, we’d rather be punished.”
Lin ngya was still silent, but a half-smile revealed on her face.
“Hall Master, may I know…”
Under such circumstances, even Ren Nanbei did not know what to say.
...
He had never seen a big shot Lin ngya, who did not show her respect to people at all.
“I… Of course, I won’t be angry with you.”
Lin ngya said softly. Her voice was lodious and crisp, but the faint chill covered Ren Nanbei’s heart.
“Thank you, Hall Master. You are magnanimous. You will not take it personally, of course.”
Ren Nanbei smiled obsequiously, but he felt a little scared.
It was exactly the sa scene as just now, but why did he feel that his life seed to be controlled by this woman now?
He wished that it was just an illusion.
“You’re right. In my eyes, it is not necessary to take you guys seriously. I am not a magnanimous person, but I won’t bully the weak. Do you think I am right or not?”
Lin ngya chuckled. It was not until now that Ren Nanbei could see clearly that her eyes were neither cold nor angry, but simply ignoring them.
In other words, the three of them were not even a threat in her eyes.
“As expected, she is just an arrogant woman!”
“Hall Master, you’re right. We’re just nobody under your command. We don’t deserve your attention.”
The three of them had been used to being flattered, so they were strongly discontent when they were ignored like this.
However, Lin ngya smiled brightly as if she had heard a joke.
“A nobody? I’ve never looked down upon a nobody. I an, your lives and deaths are under my control. If I want to punish you, I’ll kill you in an instant. Why do I bother to take it seriously?”
These words completely set off the discontents of Ren Nanbei and the other two people.
Jin Rubing snorted coldly, and his eyes flashed with a cold light.
“Hall Master, you over-boasted. Yes, we’re from Sanjue Hall, but we’re free. What’s more, we’ve made great contributions to the expansion of Sanjue Hall. I’m afraid that you’ll let all the mbers down if you disregard our lives so much.”
“You are free?”
Lin ngya’s expression turned serious, and she stopped smiling.
“If I am not mistaken, when you joined my Sanjue Hall, you swore that you would belong to Sanjue Hall whether you live or die! According to the rules of the Hall, the one who quits without permission will be regarded as a traitor, whoever is. He will be hunted down by the whole force of Sanjue Hall. Don’t you two rember?”
Ren Nanbei and Jin Rubing’s faces turned pale. They certainly knew this strict rule.
However, they both thought that there would be a place for them sowhere else. Especially after they had obtained enough capital from Sanjue Hall, they had already made their plans.
This ti, they were not only trying to provoke the Hall Master but also to seize more resources and the power of speech.
In this way, regardless of whether they sought refuge with another wise master or established their organization, it would be greatly beneficial to them.
So they naturally would not continue to endure when they heard Lin ngya’s straightforward words.
“Are you going to go back on your word, Hall Master? Back then, you promised that we could leave with your permission after we joined Sanjue Hall. Did you say that to deceive us?”
