Just as the five families were about to leave, they heard this strange voice and instinctively stopped, turning to look in the direction it came from.

They saw the crowd ahead parting to the sides.

There, sitting in a corner, was a man with short, slightly dark skin. After carefully looking at him, they realized they didn’t recognize him.

But they didn’t dare to be careless, because Liang Cunxiao was standing right next to him.

This detail was noticed by the members of the five families.

Who was Liang Cunxiao? He was a true formidable general within the military.

In ancient times, there was Chen Qingzhi, whose presence caused thousands of troops to scatter. In modern times, there was Liang Cunxiao, a heroic figure whose presence commanded respect and fear.

But now, he was actually standing beside that person. Who exactly was he?

How dare he sit in front of Liang Cunxiao?

” who are you? What are you doing here?!”

“You’re here to pay your respects to my son. As his father, shouldn’t I stand up and say a few words? If I neglect the guests, I’ll look ungrateful.”

“Son!”

The faces of Qin Yinglong, Gu Peng, and the others turned extremely ugly.

They all knew what happened in Yanjing back then.

The beautiful Qin Yingyue had ran away from Yanjing with Lin Jingzhan.

After so many years, they all thought that Lin Jingzhan had died in battle or had settled down to become an ordinary person.

However, they never thought that the man who had turned Yanjing upside down back then would really return.

Lin Jingzhan got up from his chair and walked towards Qin Yinglong and the others.

However, with every step he took, their hearts trembled.

This was especially true for Qin Yanfu and Qin Yanling. They had already mastered the combat method of exerting strength in their dantian. They immediately sensed that the pressure emitted from Lin Jingzhan’s body had already reached a level that made them shudder.

“Lin Jingzhan, it’s really you!”

“Why? Are you surprised to see me? We’ re friends after all. Did you really want me to die outside?”

“So what if you’re back? The Qin family has fallen this far because of you. The

Qin family will never forgive you!”

“Back then, all of you were beaten up so badly by me that you couldn’t even lift your heads. It wasn’t until I left that you managed to regain a foothold in Yanjing.”

“But after so many years, your son is still as disappointing as you were back then. He was beaten up by my son until he lost his temper. Now that my son is gone, you brought people and sprung out from the cracks. If I hadn’t come back, you all would have tried to bully Yingyue.”

“This was all your fault back then. You have to repay this debt!”

“Heh…”

Lin Jingzhan smiled. “Whether it was back in Yanjing or when I was overseas all these years, no one dared to come to me to collect old debts.”

Lin Jingzhan patted Qin Yinglong’s shoulder. He did not use much strength, but he still forcefully pressed him down.

The latter instantly knelt on the ground with a muffled sound!

“Dad!”

“Let go of my master!”

The bodyguards behind Qin Yinglong rushed forward, but at that moment, the sound of metal clicking filled the air.

Four black pistols were cocked, aimed at the heads of the Qin family members.

Song Jinmin, looking impatient, scratched his ear. “Do you really think just because this is Huaxia, we wouldn’t dare to kill?”

A chilling aura instantly enveloped the Qin family, making their legs weak with fear.

Only then did they understand why even someone as strong as Liang Cunxiao stood by this man’s side.

“Alright, that’s enough. Let’s not go overboard,” Lu Beichen said. Lin Jingzhan made a gesture, and Song Jinmin and the others bolstered their guns and stepped aside.

Even so, Qin Yinglong didn’t dare move. His back was soaked with cold sweat.

Lin Jingzhan turned his head, his gaze sweeping over the four families.

“No matter what, we’ve known each other for twenty or thirty years. Coming here to send off my son with such an attitude is inappropriate, don’t you think?”

Lin Jingzhan made a gesture of invitation. “Shouldn’t you at least bow before leaving?”

Instinctively, Gu Peng and the others swallowed hard.

They had come today intending to humiliate Lin Yi, ensuring he wouldn’t rest in peace even in death. But they hadn’t expected Lin Jingzhan, an unexpected and formidable presence, to return.

The tense atmosphere was in a deadlock. Lin Jingzhan stood on the spot casually, but it made the people of the four great families feel uncomfortable.

In the end, Gu Peng said, “Take a bow before you leave. It’s also a sign of respect for the dead.”

Zhao Mo and the others did not understand what was going on. They were filled with questions. They badly wanted to know who this person called Lin Jingzhan was. Why was he so bold?

“Come on, don’t dawdle.”

The four families stood in two rows and bowed to Lin Yi’s body.

Qin Han and the other two stood at the side and were secretly dumbfounded.

Who was Lin Yi’s father?

His subordinates dared to draw their guns in such a setting?

That was crazy impressive.

“Now that’s more like the style of a big family. Otherwise, it would be uncivilized,” Lin Jingzhan said.

“This is no longer your concern. Take your people and leave. Remember, I’m still alive.”

The members of the five families had varied expressions. They had arrived with great fanfare, but now they left with their heads down. Now, even the bright sunlight outside felt harsh to them.

Lin Jingzhan lowered his head slightly and walked over to Liu Hong. “Continue with the remaining proceedings. Finish by noon; it wouldn’t be good to go over time.”

Liu Hong nodded, also awed by Lin Jingzhan’s presence.

It was fortunate to encounter him here. If they had met on Tilia Island, such a person would be like an ancient monstrous flood. How could the Central Guard Brigade ever oppose him?

Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, Liu Hong regained his focus and started the next crucial part of the ceremony: the farewell to the deceased.

Everyone spontaneously stood in a row, surrounding the two corpses.

The tears and sadness that she had previously stopped immediately surged forward again when they saw Lin Yi in the glass cabin.

It was quiet. Li Chuhan held back her tears and leaned against the wall like an old man in his twilight years. She walked out slowly before dissapearing from everyone’s sight. Even Qiao Xin didn’t notice her leaving.

Dong dong dong!

Huge sorrow enveloped the entire farewell hall. The sound of crying overpowered all, including the barely audible heartbeat.

In the glass coffin, Lin Yi’s fingers moved slightly, but no one noticed this small detail.

He felt that he had entered a strange world. His surroundings were pitch-black, but a speck of light had appeared in his chest and was spreading throughout his body at a visible speed.

“Am I dead…” Lin Yi muttered to himself in the strange world.

[Yes.]

What answered him was the familiar system.

“Phew…” Lin Yi laughed bitterly, “I really didn’t expect to die in such a way, but I think it’s worth it. I’ve known you for more than two years, and you’ve turned me from a poor loser to a rich man. Although I usually scold you, I’m still very grateful to you.”

Lin Yi originally thought that the system would say a few warm words to him at this time, but he didn’t expect it to give him another answer.
