Chapter 172 - 32: The Art of Wisdom
After Hou Sixian confirmed Lin Yuan’s identity, he felt completely at ease.
He no longer had any concern about Lin Yuan’s sudden appearance affecting the situation, but instead had infinite confidence to deal with the crisis of the Pei family.
Because in his memory, even the Pei family’s old ancestor Gu Sheng, who was at the peak of Condensed Essence, did not possess such terrifying strength as Lin Yuan.
And Lin Yuan had a close relationship with Xie Wanxin, naturally making him close to the Pei family.
In this struggle between the two families, the moment Lin Yuan appeared, the scales of victory had already tilted.
Whichever side Lin Yuan stood with, that side would be the final winner.
"Elder Hou." Lin Yuan recalled the sudden battle between Hou Sixian and Yang Diancang, furrowing his brow as he asked, "This area is basically the Hou family’s heartland, yet there are such experts launching surprise attacks. Has the situation deteriorated to such a degree?"
He still wanted to salvage the Pei family’s situation but did not want to expose himself to the eerie ghost’s attention. If the Pei family was already doomed, his intervention would be meaningless, and it would be better to find another place to hide himself.
With his current strength, he barely had some self-protection ability. At worst, he would go to the upper city and start anew.
Upon hearing this, Hou Sixian immediately understood that Lin Yuan seemed to have little intelligence on the situation. He shook his head and said: "It’s not like that. The Pei family has arranged countermeasures in various places but did not anticipate the joint forces of the West River Alliance and the Hong family."
"What situation brought this person here?" Lin Yuan asked, puzzled.
