Nine-Colored Lotus

Chapter 22 Why is the Dragon Head Here?!

Lin Family Villa.

"Long Lin, this is not something you can handle. After careful consideration, I've decided to have you take Tian Ai and leave. Here is two hundred million, enough for you to live the rest of your lives. I only hope you will take good care of my daughter."

Lin Langsheng entrusted him with a sigh, then took out a bank card and handed it to Ye Long Lin, his eyes filled with defiance.

"They want to make an example of my Lin family, but my Lin family is not to be trifled with. The Lin family's several retainers and Haoran should be here by now. We have to bite off a piece of them even if we die!"

Lin Haoran.

He was his younger brother's son, and also his nephew.

After his third brother's family died in a car accident, his guardianship fell to him.

And Lin Haoran did not disappoint him, getting into a key university in Nan Province.

However, in his freshman year, he resolutely joined the army, earning many merits, and was now a captain!

Thinking about it, with Lin Haoran present, they wouldn't dare to act rashly.

"It's just a Gu family. Uncle, you don't need to worry."

A sharp voice suddenly sounded, and a young man in military uniform strode in through the doorway.

"Sister, Uncle, Aunt, I'm back. No one dares to touch the Lin family."

Having reached the rank of captain at such a young age, he seemed to be quite capable in the army.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." Lin Langsheng smiled.

After a brief reunion, Lin Haoran's eyes fell on Ye Long Lin, and he said coldly, "Are you the good-for-nothing who brought trouble to the Lin family?"

Ye Long Lin frowned, "Are you also so disrespectful to superiors in the army?"

Disrespectful to superiors?

Hearing this, Lin Haoran burst into laughter: "Hahaha, you mean to say that you are also a soldier, and your rank is even higher than mine? How laughable, truly laughable!"

"I, Lin Haoran, joined the army at nineteen and have been serving for six years. I am now a King-level expert in the Nan Province Military Region, with countless merits earned with my life, for which I gained today's honor. And you? As far as I know, your father was a prison guard, and you have just returned from overseas military service without any military rank. You dare to speak so arrogantly?"

After the last sentence, a powerful aura emanated from him, as if intending to make Ye Long Lin kneel before him.

However, Ye Long Lin stood firm, unmoving.

Lin Haoran raised his eyebrows. It seemed he wasn't a complete waste, at least he could withstand his pressure.

"The ignorant are fearless," Ye Long Lin shook his head slightly, not intending to say more.

Just then, a roar came from the main entrance, and everyone in the villa changed their expressions, like startled birds.

"Ye Family retainer Zhao Rong, comes to claim your life!"

A thunderous explosion echoed in everyone's ears.

Chu Xiulan's body softened, and she slumped onto the sofa, her eyes dazed. "It's over, it's truly over this time. The King of Hell has arrived..."

For the Lin family, this was completely a dimensional strike, they were not on the same plane at all.

With Zhao Rong's appearance, a sense of oppression washed over them.

Zhao Rong scanned the surroundings and sneered, "The Lin family in small Xingcheng dares to disrespect the Ye family. Who gave you the guts?"

Lin Haoran looked at Zhao Rong, his eyes narrowed. "What? Does the Ye family dare to attack a meritorious family? Do you know the consequences of attacking me?"

After all, he was a captain, a legitimate military rank, and protected!

Zhao Rong's gaze fell on Lin Haoran's shoulder, and he let out a cold laugh, slapping him across the face. "What are you, a mere captain dares to stand in front of me? Let alone a mere captain like you, I've killed many generals as well."

Lin Haoran was sent flying by Zhao Rong's slap, his head hitting the wall, cracking it!

One could see the immense power!

Killing intent surged in Lin Haoran's eyes, and he clenched his fists. "Naturally, I am no match for you, but I... I did not come back alone!"

"Oh?"

"It seems you've invited help. I'd like to see who this esteemed person is? Could it be the number one person in charge of the Nan Province Military?"

Zhao Rong's playful smile carried a hint of mockery.

"It's me."

A voice came from behind Zhao Rong at this moment.

He looked about the same age as Lin Haoran, but wore a camouflage uniform that didn't seem particularly outstanding.

He sneered, "The number one person in charge of the Nan Province Military is not even fit to carry our Dragon Head's shoes!"

The moment these words were spoken, everyone was astonished.

Those who didn't understand felt he was boasting. Was there really someone more powerful than the number one person in charge of the Nan Province Military?

"The Ye family, you say? Let me tell you, the Lin family is protected by my Dragon Pavilion. If your Ye family has any issues, you can have your family head personally visit the Dragon Pavilion to pay his respects to the Dragon Head!"

"You don't need to know my name, you just need to know that my codename is Crimson Dragon, the Deputy General of the Dragon God Guard Crimson Dragon Army."

Dragon Pavilion? Dragon Head? Dragon God Guard? Crimson Dragon Army?

Everyone present, except for Zhao Rong whose pupils contracted, looked confused. They had no idea what these were.

Lin Haoran, however, noticed that Ye Long Lin had his back to everyone since Crimson Dragon appeared.

Crimson Dragon stood in front of Ye Rong, hands clasped behind his back, and said in a calm tone, "You seem to know about the Dragon Pavilion?"

Zhao Rong swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "I... I know."

The Ye family in the capital was a magnate-level existence. It was impossible not to know about the Dragon Pavilion. Even the Ye family had opportunities to study at the Dragon Pavilion every year, but it was only for advanced studies.

Zhao Rong never imagined that he would one day face the Dragon Pavilion!

The Dragon Head of the Dragon Pavilion was one of the decision-makers of the highest department!

"Then tell me, how should this matter be handled today?"

Zhao Rong took a deep breath, suppressing the fear in his heart. "Your Excellency Crimson Dragon, you are merely a deputy general of the Crimson Dragon Army. You should also know the identities of the top three figures in our Ye family. Today, I can refrain from making trouble for the Lin family, but there is one person I must take with me. Our clan's thirteenth young master is still in his hands."

Crimson Dragon fell silent for a moment, then nodded. "Agreed."

He had fulfilled his promise to Lin Haoran by avoiding offending the Ye family and protecting the Lin family. As for other matters, they were of no concern to him.

Lin Haoran revealed a cold smile, his gaze falling on Ye Long Lin, who had his back to everyone. "Ye Long Lin, do you think you can get away with hiding? Get out here!"

Ye Long Lin sighed and slowly stood up.

Crimson Dragon looked up curiously, and at a single glance, a chill ran through his entire body!

"This... this... why is the Dragon Head here!!!!"

"I'm a damn show-off in front of the Dragon Head?!"

"Damn it! Lin Haoran, you idiot, with the Dragon Head sitting here, let alone the Ye family, even if the entire Ye family came out, they wouldn't be able to harm the Lin family one bit! This is over!"
