Chapter 951: Begging for Your Forgiveness
"Elder Wei, you, you..."
"Aren't you speaking up for our Lin family?"
Lin Xingyuan, leading the Lin family members, looked at the scene before them, their expressions full of suspicion and doubt.
Lin Yanran, standing by Zhang Xiaoshan's side, held her breath, staring blankly at the profile of Zhang Xiaoshan.
"Speaking up?"
Wei Hu stood up and shouted angrily at Lin Xingyuan.
"Your Lin family has made such a grave mistake, it cannot be forgiven even with ten thousand deaths; how dare you talk about speaking up?"
"I..."
Lin Xingyuan's face turned red from the scolding.
At this moment, suddenly a group of people rushed in hurriedly from outside the door.
This group of people carried an aura of wealth and power, akin to tigers and wolves.
Though not as powerful as Wei Hu or Liang Chengdao's side, they still commanded respect.
"That's Qi Yuan, the richest man in Northern Wei..."
"That's Liu Dajiang, the water transportation tycoon..."
"That seems like the Family Head from one of Sichuan's top ten families, the Su family?"
"That one is the biggest agricultural tycoon in the Long Area..."
As the identities of these big shots were revealed one by one, the faces of the Lin family members turned increasingly pale.
With each person's identity unveiled, Lin Xingyuan's face became a shade darker.
Seventeen people in total.
Each one was at least a top magnate in an Earth-level city.
Such a large gathering of wealthy elites, when united, would even make a top family retreat; what was the Lin family compared to them?
"Why, why have they come here?"
"Did they take a wrong turn?"
"Our Lin family has never offended them before."
"Moreover, how could so many merchant magnates gather here?"
The Lin family members were bewildered, unable to comprehend the situation.
Just at this moment,
the seventeen people knelt in unison before Zhang Xiaoshan.
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, we, we are late, a thousand apologies, a thousand apologies."
After obtaining a Magic Artifact from Zhang Xiaoshan earlier at the Ten Thousand Treasure House, they did not leave immediately, choosing instead to dine together at a nearby location.
When Liang Chengdao arrived and informed them, they rushed over without delay.
They would not miss such a rare opportunity to curry favor with Zhang Xiaoshan.
As these seventeen top merchants paid their respects to Zhang Xiaoshan.
The Lin family members fell to the ground in a daze, unable to hide the astonishment in their eyes anymore.
"What the, what is happening here?"
"You, this, who is he really?"
The proud Family Head of the Lin family, top giant in the Yanxia pharmaceutical industry, Lin Xingyuan, could no longer maintain his composure, appearing as clueless as a child.
"Chairman, Chairman..."
"Who dares to touch our White Dragon Association's Chairman, seeking death."
At this moment, another group of people rushed in.
Leading them was Baldy Liu.
Behind him was a group of subordinates, forming a dense mass, blocking the over two-meter wide corridor completely.
"What, what on earth is going on?"
"It seems they are from the White Dragon Association, why are they here?"
Some guests in other private rooms had their mood spoiled, intending to rush out of their rooms to curse aloud, but upon seeing the situation in the corridor, they quickly withdrew their heads.
In this scenario, even the richest person in a province wouldn't dare to speak.
If the high officials arrived, even they would have to step back.
This was truly a competition among kings.
"Lin Xingyuan, at this moment, you still can't figure out my identity?"
As the forces gathered, Zhang Xiaoshan stepped forward, clasping his hands behind his back, his dignified gaze fixed on Lin Xingyuan, questioning coldly.
"White Dragon Association..."
"Divine Doctor?"
As series of information came together, Lin Xingyuan, not being a fool, naturally deduced Zhang Xiaoshan's identity.
"You, you are the one who wiped out the Zhang family in Yang City."
"Killed the Blood Flood Dragon Group's Vice Chairman, declared war on Qin Province's number one expert Chen Jiao, the White Dragon Association's Chairman, Zhang, Miracle Doctor Zhang..."
Upon reaching this conclusion, Lin Xingyuan staggered back several steps, losing his footing and falling to the ground, overwhelmed.
This centenarian who had witnessed countless storms and waves was now utterly disoriented.
He could no longer maintain his stature as the Family Head of the Lin family.
All his charisma drained away at this moment.
"He, he's the one who killed the Blood Flood Dragon Group's Vice Chairman, Miracle Doctor Zhang?"
With Lin Xingyuan himself so discomposed, there was no need to mention the rest of the Lin family.
At this moment, they could only feel their liver and gallbladder about to shatter, scalp tingling.
"Lin Rui, you fool, what have you done?"
"What have you done?"
Lin Xingyuan turned to his treasured grandson, furious.
Lin Rui, who had initially intended to take revenge on Zhang Xiaoshan, found his mindset falling apart at this moment.
"No, no, this can't be true, he, how can he be the White Dragon Association's Chairman?"
"He, how can he be the ruthless man who killed Jiang Ying?"
"No, I don't believe it, I don't believe it."
"Fool, the reputation of Miracle Doctor Zhang is well-known, how dare you doubt him; don't tell me you dare doubt me, Wei Hu, as well?"
Wei Hu was the first to stand up for Zhang Xiaoshan.
Firstly, Zhang Xiaoshan had saved his life.
Secondly, he believed Zhang Xiaoshan to be a Divine Realm Expert, with a master surpassing the Divine Realm behind him.
Given these two factors, he naturally showed utmost respect towards Zhang Xiaoshan.
As for Liang Chengdao, Qi Yuan, Liu Dajiang, and others, there was no need to mention.
They had received Magic Artifacts from Zhang Xiaoshan, also implanted with Divine Thought Imprints, to put it bluntly, they were already Zhang Xiaoshan's vassals.
Faced with the pressure from the big shots, Lin Rui collapsed.
"Ah, ah ah..."
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, spare me, Miracle Doctor Zhang, it was my mistake, forgive me, please forgive me."
Killing Jiang Ying, declaring war on Chen Jiao, this matter had already spread like wildfire in the upper echelons of Qin Province, the Lin family naturally understood the viciousness of the White Dragon Association's Chairman.
They never imagined that their Lin family would one day attract the wrath of such an unparalleled killer.
With the Zhang family's downfall in Yang City as a precedent, they naturally were afraid.
Coupled with Wei Hu, Liang Chengdao, and those seventeen local tycoons lending support.
At this moment, the Lin family in front of Zhang Xiaoshan was like ants, not even worthy of being compared to grasshoppers.
They were utterly beyond comparison.
The Lin family was doomed.
"You, you're the White Dragon Association's Chairman?"
"You..."
Thinking she had some relationship with Zhang Xiaoshan, Lin Yanran was still naively lost in her thoughts.
Lin Xingyuan was the first to come to his senses.
Without a moment's hesitation, he knelt before Zhang Xiaoshan.
"Chairman Zhang, we, the Lin family, were wrong."
"We beg, we beg your forgiveness."
