Chapter 55 - 53: Even a Dog Wouldn’t Go to the Exchange Meeting

Chapter 55: Chapter 53: Even a Dog Wouldn’t Go to the Exchange Meeting

After all, no Ghost Skill can truly achieve invincible effects.

Having a ghost endure under the sun for ten minutes is sufficient.

Ten minutes can accomplish many things.

The air is filled with the smell of fresh blood.

Fu Wansan and the others fell silent at this moment.

Li San is dead. They are a bit happy, and a bit sad as well.

After all, behind Li San is the Li Family.

If the Li Family learns about this, they will definitely seek revenge.

"Hey, hey, hey... Why aren’t any of you talking? You are the main characters today; I’m just involved as a bodyguard," Mo Lin complained to Fu Wansan and the others.

That’s right...

Mo Lin’s role today is a bodyguard.

With Li San dead, the Li Family will seek revenge on Mo Lin, but their main targets will be Fu Wansan and those people.

"Li San’s death is everyone’s responsibility," Mo Lin said again.

Fu Wansan quickly nodded, "Yes, we are all responsible; I will take care of the aftermath."

Zhuang Ruo also quickly nodded, "Yes, yes ... we are all responsible for this matter, and we will handle any subsequent troubles well."

Everyone must be of one mind at this point.

Li San had to die, or else it would be them who perish.

Fu Wansan and the others should be thankful to Mo Lin.

A death has occurred, which is a big deal, but with Fu Wansan’s means, they can make Li San disappear even more thoroughly.

"You don’t need to be afraid or panic; if the Li Family really dares to retaliate, I will handle it."

Mo Lin’s words were like a sedative, giving Fu Wansan and the others a tremendous sense of security.

"Brother Mo, those words are too polite."

"We are all in the same boat; we are all responsible for this, and we will help you," Zhuang Ruo followed up.

Anyway, they are already irreconcilable with the Li Family; the priority is now to maintain a good relationship with Mo Lin.

Fu Wansan called in his trusted aides to tidy up the place and perform some aftercare.

As for the news of Li San’s death, keeping it under wraps forever is impossible, but it can be concealed for a month or perhaps longer.

"Aren’t you afraid of Li San’s revenge?" Hongyan Xun asked directly.

"Not afraid, if they bother me, I don’t mind returning the favor," Mo Lin wasn’t afraid of the Li Family.

After all, Mo Lin wasn’t in the wrong in today’s affair.

There seems to be Netherworld’s Nether Fire within the Li Family; if they dare to cause trouble for Mo Lin, he doesn’t mind seizing the Netherworld’s Nether Fire.

"Alright."

Hongyan Xun acknowledged Mo Lin’s strength.

After all, Mo Lin’s ability is evident; not fearing the Li Family is reasonable.

After resolving Li San’s matter, Mo Lin hailed a taxi and went home.

Yun Chuan Ghost-Controlling Master chat group.

Lin Xi: "Anyone going to the exchange meeting tomorrow?"

Feng Mingyu: "Hasn’t Mo Lin agreed to accompany you?"

Lin Xi: "I just wanted to ask if there’s anyone else willing to go to the exchange meeting together."

Yun Lin: "Don’t ask, besides Mo Lin, no one would want to go with you."

Feng Mingyu: "Exactly, only Mo Lin is willing to go with you."

Lin Xi: "(⊙_⊙)?"

Zhao Fei: "Exchange meeting, even dogs wouldn’t attend."

Mo Lin: "Why say that?"

Feng Mingyu: "Our Ghost-Controlling Society has no status at the exchange meeting; perhaps won’t even find a table."

Zhao Fei: "I attended once last year; felt utterly invisible, having no status at all."

Lin Xi: "I don’t care, I’m going just to get a meal."

Lin Xi: "@Mo Lin, you promised to go to the exchange meeting with me, don’t sneak away!"

Mo Lin: "I won’t; I’ll join you tomorrow."

Lin Xi: "Having a companion is good; even if embarrassed, it’s shame shared by two."

Feng Mingyu: "୧(๑•̀◡•́๑)૭"

Yun Lin: "You’ll find out just how embarrassing it is after attending, embarrassing enough to dig a three-bedroom apartment with your feet."

Feng Mingyu: "Seriously... I’ve attended once too, super awkward."

Lin Xi: "What’s so awkward?"

Yun Lin: "You’ll understand when you go with Mo Lin tomorrow."

Mo Lin lay on the bed, chatting with the group about the exchange meeting.

Mo Lin was a bit excited about the food prepared by the state banquet chef.

Lin Xi: "@Mo Lin, send me your location; I’ll drive over to pick you up tomorrow."

Mo Lin: "Okay."

.....

The next day.

Mo Lin wears a black outer garment, paired with a white inner shirt.

A blue long sword hangs at his waist.

Mo Lin agrees to attend the exchange meeting with Lin Xi.

"Vroom..."

The sound of an engine roaring is heard; looking in its direction, a Ferrari sports car drives straight over.

The Ferrari stops at the entrance.

A woman steps down slowly.

The woman lifts her black sunglasses, waves at Mo Lin; "Hop in."

Her hair was pulled up high with neat bangs, and her face was delicate, dressed in black leather pants.

The outfit was very cool.

She chewed gum in her mouth.

Lin Xi glanced at Mo Lin and teased, "You look quite handsome."

"Hmm... I know." Mo Lin responded calmly.

"..." Lin Xi was speechless; Mo Lin’s reply left her unsure of what to say, so she started the car.

It took just about twenty minutes to reach the destination.

The destination was Wanhai Grand Hotel.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Lin Xi visibly grew excited.

"Wanhai Grand Hotel, a high-end restaurant; let me take you in," Lin Xi led Mo Lin into the Wanhai Grand Hotel.

Suddenly, Lin Xi spotted another group of people; her expression changed immediately.

Not far away were six individuals dressed in black suits, looking very formal.

These were people from the Purple Dragon Association.

A few days ago, Lin Xi had conflict with members of the Purple Dragon Association, so she didn’t like them.

"Lin Xi, you’re here too?" A man in a black suit greeted Lin Xi.

This man was named Shi Fei.

Shi Fei was with the Purple Dragon Association.

Recently, due to a ghost-catching task, Shi Fei had conflicts with Lin Xi.

Shi Fei glanced at Mo Lin standing behind Lin Xi, "You’re bringing a newbie too?"

"None of your business." Lin Xi didn’t want to engage Shi Fei, so she led Mo Lin inside.

Shi Fei’s group followed them into the hotel.

Lin Xi glanced around the hotel setting, a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

Prepared dishes were placed around, along with some desserts.

It’s like a buffet.

But none of this was what she wanted.

She came expecting dishes prepared by a state banquet chef.

"Wasn’t there supposed to be a state banquet chef?" Lin Xi remarked.

"The state banquet chef is on the second floor," Shi Fei sneered.

Lin Xi looked up and indeed saw a second floor; she intended to take Mo Lin up.

Seeing Lin Xi’s action, Shi Fei mocked her, "What are you doing? You want to go to the second floor?"

"Mind your business," Lin Xi frowned and retorted.

"I’m just kindly reminding you, you can’t go to the second floor."

Shi Fei sarcastically mocked Lin Xi as if she were a child.

"We people have no status; we’re confined to the first floor, not qualified for the second."

Shi Fei repeated, "The Purple Dragon Association and Ghost-Controlling Society people have no influence here; we might not even have seats today."

"I don’t believe it." Lin Xi didn’t trust Shi Fei’s words.

She quickly opened her phone to inquire in the Ghost-Controlling Master chat group.
