Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law-Chapter 1240: When Immortals Clash, the Commoners Suffer!

At this moment, Lin Liansheng, surrounded by the crowd, approached his son's corpse.

When he saw his son's body, he felt dizzy, almost tumbling.

Too tragic!

Really, too tragic!!

Even though he and Ai Sichun had already prepared themselves mentally on the way, they never expected their son to be in such a state.

That face was not just disfigured, there was no face at all!

It was imaginable how much pain his son suffered when he died!

"Ao Zhong!!!"

"Yes!!"

Ao Zhong immediately stepped forward, solemnly awaiting orders!

"Hasn't the local action department found the murderer yet?!" Lin Liansheng asked through gritted teeth.

"No! They instead wanted us to cooperate. I considered them useless, kicked over their table, and brought the young master out!" Ao Zhong reported truthfully.

"Useless!"

Lin Liansheng was furious: "The Jiangdong officials, just wait for an earthquake! At the very least, the action department will be crushed—what does that old bastard Baili Xi say?"

"The Baili Family has yet to make any statement. They act as if it's none of their business, keeping distance. But given their status in Jiangdong, I'm sure they've known about the young master's death for a long time. They intentionally stay out to avoid trouble." Ao Zhong said angrily.

"Stay out of it?"

Lin Liansheng laughed in anger: "Can he evade?! My son came to Jiangdong because of the Baili Family, suffered such an insult, and now he's dead here. Telling me it has nothing to do with them?! Baili Xi, that old scoundrel, dares to play tricks with me, come on, let's go to the Baili Family now!!"

"Yes!!"

A group of loyal subordinates shouted thunderously, then they boarded the several business cars Ao Zhong had prepared, along with the corpse of Lin Zekai, and rushed to the Baili Manor!

At this moment, the airport surveillance personnel, who only dared to hide far away, cautiously reported to their superiors: "Leader, the Lin Family has left. They seem aggressive as if going somewhere, but at least they didn't cause a scene at the airport."

"Understood."

Meanwhile, in the spacious leadership office at the airport's main building, the leader in charge of overseeing the entire airport hung up the phone, visibly relieved.

"Old Ma, you were right, this group is not here with good intentions, I reckon they're off to confront the Baili Family! Ah, it's been many years since such a situation arose in Jiangdong, a clash between local and Capital City families, the Baili Family won't escape unscathed this time."

On the sofa behind him sat Ma Bushan, the head of the Provincial City's action department.

With a wry smile, Ma Bushan said, "What can we do? Such matters are beyond our reach, when gods fight, the common folk suffer. Let's see how Old Master Baili handles this! As long as the Lin Family doesn't openly cause troubles for us in the action department!"

To some extent, he also counted as a subordinate disciple of Baili Xi, but such high-level matters were truly beyond his influence, helpless.

"Are you sure you don't want to send someone over to check? In case a conflict arises..." The airport leader smiled wryly.

"Conflict? The Lin Family probably won't dare yet!"

Ma Bushan shared his judgment: "If you're talking about those higher-ranking families in Capital City, I might believe it, but the Lin Family still needs to weigh their decisions. — For now, don't think too much, the Lin Family doesn't want our action department to interfere, so let's watch for further developments!"

...

Baili Family's Mountain Manor.

On that stirring uphill road, eight identical Mercedes business cars aggressively came up the mountain.

Under Bai Touying's deliberate arrangement, there was not even a single guard posted along the way, truly leaving the gate open, just waiting for the guests!

The eight business cars were not polite, directly arriving with flagrant arrogance at the manor's gate, only then did Bai Touying stand there with a group of people.

Watching the business cars stop, from the lead car, Lin Liansheng and Ai Sichun stepped out, Bai Touying feigned ignorance and greeted them with a smile: "Ah, such distinguished guests! Why did Young Master Lin visit with the lady so suddenly?"

"Are you Baili Xi's housekeeper? Cut the crap! Get Baili Xi out here to speak!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Such unrealistic acting could not deceive Lin Liansheng's eyes, he directly cursed, yelling for Baili Xi to come out.

Bai Touying's face changed, stopped pretending, and said with a forced smile: "Young Master Lin, what's got you so riled up? My master heard you were coming, even prepared tea, this isn't the way to treat guests."

"Guests?" Lin Liansheng gritted his teeth: "Is your Baili Family worthy?! Stop the pretense, get out here quickly! Otherwise, I'll barge in and trample on your threshold!"

"Who wants to trample on our threshold?"

As an elderly voice echoed, from within the manor, Baili Xi finally came out, unhurriedly and deliberately.

Beside him were all the members of the Baili Family.

After all, they were also a Capital City family coming to confront, these family members dared not be absent?

However, among these family members now, their expressions varied.

Some were clearly deterred, others indignant, but most hid quietly in the back, not daring to show their faces, fearing being seen and remembered by the Lin Family!

"Liansheng, long time no see, since you came from afar, why not come in for a cup of tea? Our Jiangdong bamboo leaf tea is still very authentic." Baili Xi, however, appeared calm and composed, came to the door, and smiled at Lin Liansheng.

"Baili Xi, stop pretending to be unaware! You know very well why I'm here!"

Lin Liansheng gave no face, angrily scolded: "I'll just ask you one thing, my son was killed in a hotel last night and up to today you haven't said a word or asked anything? Are you truly planning to stand aside?"

"What? Lin Zekai is dead?! When did this happen? Why haven't I heard a thing?"

With an exaggerated expression, Baili Xi said: "Your son, such a talented young man, how could he suddenly... die?! Who did it?"

Lin Liansheng was speechless, caught off guard by Baili Xi's barrage of questions.

Could it be he really is uninformed?!

"Baili Xi, are you deceiving us?! Something happened in your area, and you dare say you don't know?! Besides, the one who died is our young master, why are you pretending to be ignorant?!" Ao Zhong chastised angrily.

"Young fellow, calm down first." Baili Xi glanced at Ao Zhong, a mere house slave dared bark before two family heads, evident of the Lin Family's upbringing.

"If it were any other time, I might have heard, but recently I've had trouble sleeping, had servants make me some herbal medicine, sleeping till morning, so I really hadn't heard about this matter—you came at me forcefully right from the start, being a bit abrupt wouldn't you say?" Baili Xi still smiling, unprovoked.
