Chapter 367 How Many People In This World Are As Miserable As You?

Terrified and helpless, Song Zhe’s voice trembled. “Lin...Lin Xun, are you not afraid of retaliation from our Song Family?”

Wasn’t that a stupid question?

Everyone couldn’t help but laugh. Lin Xun has already beat you two up. Why would he regret it?

Lin Xun had quelled his rage. After a thought, he was about to say something when Shi Yu strode toward him. He looked cold as he said, “Lin Xun, leave the rest for me to take care of.”

He crouched down in front of Song Zhe, his eyes filled with pity. “The matter didn’t concern you, but you had to come forward to stand up for Song Chonghe…why did you bring this upon yourself?”

“Third Young Master Shi—you—!”

Song Zhe had never thought that Shi Yu’s attitude would change and that he would become so rude.

“Don’t get angry, I actually sympathize with you. Let me ask you, is your fiancée called Jin Rong?” asked Shi Yu.

Song Zhe fumed, “What are you trying to say?”

Everyone else in the hall was just as confused.

Shi Yu pointed to Song Chonghe. “He accidentally blurted at a banquet a few days ago that he slept with your fiancée Jin Rong.”

Everyone was stunned. Shi Yu’s words were too vicious. He said that Song Zhe’s fiancée had cheated on Song Zhe with his cousin Song Chonghe!

Song Zhe was so angry that his eyes almost popped out. “How dare you spew venomous slander?!”

Seeing Song Zhe on the verge of going berserk, Shi Yu patted him on the shoulder and whispered pitifully, “You better look out for yourself.”

To everyone’s surprise, Song Zhe stood rooted to the spot like he had lost his soul. It was unknown what Shi Yu had said to him.

“Song Zhe, don’t listen to his slander! He’s lying to you! Why would I do such a thing?” Song Chonghe screamed in the distance.

“I…” Song Zhe’s face morphed indefinitely.

When everyone saw his reaction, they began to feel suspicious just like Song Zhe was.

Could what Shi Yu said be true? Song Chonghe is so despicable that he played with Song Zhe’s fiancée?

He’s despicable! Song Zhe is his cousin, how could he do that?

They found it most upsetting that Song Zhe was the first one to stand up for Song Chonghe. Song Zhe was indeed one of the most pitiful people in the world.

“Shi Yu, I’m not finished with you!” Song Chonghe was so enraged that he coughed up blood as he roared.

He felt too humiliated. Lin Xun had violently beaten him up and now he encountered another shameful situation. If this incident spread out, how could he lift his head up again?

On the other hand, Song Zhe’s expression was extremely overcast. He wasn’t himself anymore and seemed like he was suffering from torture inside.

“Hoho.”

Suddenly, Shi Yu smiled coldly. “Who cares? Do you think I would be afraid of you? If Song Yi is here, it might be different but you two…are considered nothing.”

“You—” Song Chonghe’s face contorted with rage.

“You don’t need to say more. I welcome your retaliation any time in the future,” Shi Yu uttered coldly.

He was completely enraged. Song Chonghe and Song Zhe had repeatedly provoked his friend Lin Xun since the banquet began. If he didn’t do anything for Lin Xun, he wouldn’t be a good friend.

He said that to lessen the pressure on Lin Xun and to prevent the Song Clan from directing all the hatred on Lin Xun because he knew that Lin Xun’s present situation wasn’t too good.

“Good! Very Good! I will remember this!”

Song Chonghe gnashed his teeth. It was unknown where he got the strength from but he struggled to his feet and swept a malicious glance over Shi Yu and Lin Xun before he stormed off with Song Zhe.

He had to leave after suffering such humiliation. If they stayed any longer, they would be humiliated even more.

“Count me in on this matter too.”

It was at that moment that Bai Lingxi, who had remained quiet all this time, suddenly spoke out aloud. Her voice was as clear and pleasant as the sounds of nature.

It stunned everyone in the hall, including Lin Xun and Shi Yu. Why would Bai Lingxi interfere at such a time?

She could offend the Song Clan by doing so!

Song Chonghe’s and Song Zhe’s faces twisted in shock and disbelief.

Bai Lingxi’s expression remained calm and detached as she continued, “This incident started because of me. I can’t stay out of it and do nothing.”

“What’s more, this is a gathering between students of Blood Kill Camp. Since a dispute has happened, I should stand on the Blood Kill Camp’s side.”

After her comments, many people came to their senses. They somehow felt that Bai Lingxi’s purpose for doing so wasn’t as simple as she had said.

Song Chonghe and Song Zhe were completely stupefied by Bai Lingxi’s words. They had already found Shi Yu’s resolute attitude unbearable, but now even Bai Lingxi wasn’t on their side. They couldn’t help but feel like they were crumbling apart.

However, everyone was most shocked when Zhao Yin also spoke out. “You two are indeed at fault in this matter. If you want to retaliate against someone in the future, count me in too.” His voice was indifferent and calm.

Song Chonghe and Song Zhe were about to collapse. They panicked and their minds felt jumbled, not knowing what to do.

Lin Xun was a nobody. Regardless of how strong he was, he was an insignificant ant that the colossal Song Clan could easily crush to death.

But Shi Yu, Bai Lingxi, and Zhao Yin were different!

The power of Stone Cauldron Alms wasn’t in the least inferior to the Song Clan! Additionally, Shi Yu had an extremely important identity and status as he was the son of Fortune God Shi. Even if Song Chonghe were to retaliate in the future, he didn’t have much confidence he could do anything to Shi Yu.

Bai Lingxi had an even more frightening identity. Her grandfather, Marquis Jinghai, was an authority figure in the empire, and many relatives of Bai Lingxi were members of the imperial family. She had an illustrious identity.

Song Chonghe would never have the guts to touch Bai Lingxi!

As for Zhao Yin...he had the surname Zhao and was a true member of the imperial family. His great-grandfather, Marquis Bowang, was the clan brother of the current emperor!

How could Song Chonghe and Song Zhe not panic when they heard Shi Yu, Bai Lingxi and Zhao Yin all stand on Lin Xun’s side?

Song Zhe had to feel the most depressed and suffocated. Not only had he suffered a beating, but he had also learned that his fiancée had cheated on him with his cousin. And now, Shi Yu, Bai Lingxi and Zhao Yin all viewed him as an enemy…

Was there anyone more miserable than Song Zhe in this world?

Song Chonghe and Song Zhe didn’t know how to leave Precious Laughter House. As descendants of the high and mighty Song Clan, they had suffered from such a pitiful and pathetic situation.

……

As Song Chonghe and Song Zhe left the hall, the silent and tense atmosphere was instantly swept away.

Lin Xun returned to his seat and Shi Yu ordered the servants to set up the banquet again. Everyone began to toast to one another, and the lively atmosphere resumed.

Everyone seemed to have completely forgotten the unhappy incident that had just happened.

However, that incident had been resolved the moment that Shi Yu, Bai Lingxi and Zhao Yin stood forward. No more waves would be stirred up as a result of it.

After all, regardless of how furious the Song Clan would be regarding the incident, they wouldn’t dare to tear into the powerful forces and clans behind Shi Yu and the others. This was the power of one’s background. Although it was invisible, it had a significant impact on many things in the world.

Of course, the way that Lin Xun acted seemed more powerful and domineering in comparison.

I don’t care if you’re from the Song Clan! If you anger me, I won't hesitate to beat you up!

Ye Xiaoqi couldn’t help but ask, “Lin Xun, it was so satisfying when you taught them a lesson. but were you not worried at all?”

The others were also very curious.

Lin Xun shrugged his shoulders with a smile. “It’s useless to worry. I can’t let them walk all over me, right?”

The majority of people weren’t satisfied with his answer, but when they thought about Shi Yu’s attitude towards Song Chonghe and Song Zhe, they seemed relieved.

Lin Xun must have known that Shi Yu would stand up for him, right?

Among everyone in the hall, only Shi Yu and Ning Meng knew that Lin Xun wouldn’t consider that much before he acted!

The two had already experienced this when they trained together in Blood Kill Camp.

“With your current strength, you can easily pass the national exam. Why didn’t you take it this year?” Bai Lingxi suddenly asked.

She looked particularly stunning in her white dress. Moreover, her illustrious identity made her become the focus of everyone in the hall. She immediately drew all attention when she spoke.

Many people’s expressions altered subtly and their eyes glinted ruminatively.

When Bai Lingxi had arrived, she had casually sat down beside Lin Xun.

Then, she came forward and intervened in the affairs between Lin Xun and Song Chonghe and Song Zhe. The reason she gave for her interference sounded reasonable, but somehow everyone felt it wasn’t that simple.

Now that Bai Lingxi had initiated a conversation with Lin Xun, many people couldn’t help but speculate. If it weren’t for the huge difference in status and identity between Lin Xun and Bai Lingxi, many people would have wondered if Bai Lingxi attended the banquet specifically for Lin Xun.

No one noticed that Zhao Yin scrunched his eyebrows and his eyes flashed with anger for a moment.

However, Bai Lingxi’s question seemed to surprise Lin Xun. He stared blankly at her for a moment and then smiled helplessly. “I only broke through to the Spirit Sea Stage after the national exam ended. I don’t think I could have achieved a ranking in the national exam.”

Everyone suddenly looked perturbed.

Immediately, Ning Meng exclaimed strangely, “Damn it, so you’ve only been at the Spirit Sea Stage for around twenty days? Yet, you easily defeated Song Chonghe and Song Zhe?”

Everyone’s expression turned strange. If what Lin Xun said was true, he really is abnormal.

He only just broke through to the Spirit Sea Stage, but he already possesses such powers. His strength is too astonishing.

Only Lin Xuefeng was still sitting calmly beside Lin Xun. He had witnessed Lin Xun’s breakthrough, which was an extraordinary spectacle.

Therefore, compared to other people, he could remain much calmer.

While everyone was marveling at Lin Xun’s strength, a cold, charming voice suddenly rang outside the hall, “Who is Lin Xun? Come out here now!”
