The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 982: Chapter 982: The Sudden Invitation

The commotion here quickly drew Yan Xinrou out from the kitchen where she was making dinner.

She stood at the door with a spatula in hand, asking, ”What’s going on? Did you bring home a Husky? Are they wrecking the place?”

Nan Qiu didn’t know what a Husky was, but from Yan Xinrou’s expression, it was definitely not a good thing.

Lin Tian chuckled awkwardly, ”Mom, she’s not a Husky. That was just a pure accident.”

Yan Xinrou pointed her spatula at Lin Tian and said, ”There’s a lot of valuable things in this house, so be careful. And haven’t you seen me busy in the kitchen? Hurry up and come help me.”

”Oh, okay.” Lin Tian nodded quickly, put on his slippers, and dashed over. When Lin Tian reached Yan Xinrou, she stretched out and grabbed him by the ear, mumbling under her breath.

Nan Qiu was momentarily stunned by the scene. What’s going on here? That woman just subdued Lin Tian in one move; her skills must be top-notch! The Celestial Dragon Continent really is... How does that saying go? Full of hidden talents!

After Lin Tian entered the kitchen, dinner preparations evidently sped up a lot, and soon a lavish dinner was set on the living room table. At the center of the table were several dishes with a blackish hue, all creations of Yan Xinrou, placed conspicuously to ensure someone would eat them.

Liou Qingcheng had also returned from school, and Lin Tian introduced her to the new bodyguard.

Unexpectedly, Liou Qingcheng accepted it begrudgingly.

During dinner, Nan Qiu was noticeably reserved, as this was her first time visiting someone’s house. The Liou family members were quite hospitable, for she was the bodyguard protecting the Liou family’s little princess. The most enthusiastic was Yan Xinrou, who kept serving food into Nan Qiu’s bowl, especially from the central dishes, the most.

Seeing this, Lin Tian and Liou Zhengming both stifled their laughter. After this meal, Nan Qiu might never dare to dine at the Liou family’s table again!

Liou Qingcheng was mercilessly disdainful: ”Mom, you’re serving your dishes to the guest. Are you trying to poison her?”

”Oh, my daughter is jealous. Here, have this piece of fish.” Yan Xinrou placed a piece of black fish into Liou Qingcheng’s bowl and said, ”Try it, this is my latest creation that I named Charred Carp.”

”That name is really fitting...”

...

According to Liou Qingcheng, Xiaocheng Medical College students have already returned to school today, leaving only those teachers who lost bets to stay on campus, and Xv Zhina also stayed, no longer arrogant, almost fully occupied with classes, diligently studying every day, showing a desperate determination.

Lin Tian’s mind immediately conjured up the image of that skinny girl holding a medical book.

With Xiaocheng Medical College’s affairs concluding, what struck Lin Tian the most was the fate of Liu Mang and his son, and Li Li. Though in their eyes, they were just clowns, not worth dealing with, they still jumped up only to meet their end, dying without clarity.

In the days that followed, Nan Qiu practiced running her Inner Strength according to Lin Tian’s guidance, achieving some progress.

As for Lin Tian, he remained occupied. Together with Bai Shishi, he went to the City Central Hospital to check on Bai Tianlong’s condition.

The father-in-law’s condition was unchanged, looking sullen and unhappy, but he showed some delight upon seeing Lin Tian. He looked at Lin Tian and Bai Shishi and said, ”Regardless of when you two get married, it’d be best if you quickly give me a grandchild. Before I die, I’d be content to hold a grandchild.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Shishi started to cry, complaining, ”Dad, what are you talking about? We’re both so busy, you still need to help us with the kids.”

”Hehehe, sure, I’ll help with the kids.”

When talking about children, Bai Tianlong became much more cheerful, though it was only temporary, as he would soon revert to his usual self.

For this type of mental illness, Lin Tian was also at a loss, only able to try some rehabilitation methods.

That day, Lin Tian suddenly received a call from an unknown number, and upon answering, the person on the other end cheerfully said, ”Brother Cannon King, when do you have time to visit my Alliance again?”

Lin Tian hesitated, somewhat unsure, and asked, ”Is this, Sixth Elder?”

He was fairly familiar with this little old man’s voice, which sounded hearty and without malice. But in the family Alliance, where could the good ones be? If it weren’t for having valuable items, he wouldn’t curry favor with me.

”Hehe, it’s me. You still haven’t answered my question, when do you have time to visit again?” Sixth Elder chuckled.

”Uh...” Lin Tian pondered for a while, unable to figure out why this little old man suddenly invited him; doesn’t he know that I’m Lin Tian? That I was the one who heavily injured the Great Elder too?

”Sixth Elder, we’re old acquaintances, so let’s not beat around the bush. Your invitation, is it because of the pill formula? Or because of your brother?” Lin Tian asked.

This time, Sixth Elder also pondered for a while then said, ”Actually, both. Mainly, my brother wants to meet you.”

”Ha, just because your brother wants to meet me, I have to go? Who does he think he is? If he wants to meet me, let him come to me himself.” Lin Tian said, ”Don’t think I don’t know what that old geezer is up to, trying to catch me like a sitting duck? I think he’s the duck!”

”Brother Cannon King, oh, no, Brother Lin Tian, you really misunderstood. We sincerely invite you over. Think about it, you and my brother fought to a draw, and it’s only been two months. He was quite injured, and most importantly, the steel rod piercing his belly is near the Sea of Qi. Although it didn’t damage the foundation, recovery will take another two months. With your skills, without my brother, is there anyone who can stop you?”

Lin Tian mocked, ”Without the Great Elder, there are still so many old monsters in your Alliance. Do you think I can trust you?”

”Hehe, rest assured about that. Those old monsters in the Alliance aren’t going to emerge so easily, even if they do, I bet many of them would be because of your pill formulas and Heart Method. Now, who among the ancient martial arts families doesn’t want to befriend you? They might want to harm you, but don’t know how many would be unhappy about that.” Sixth Elder laughed.

Lin Tian pondered deeply, realizing that little old man’s words made sense. Some people wanted him dead, but more wanted to gain favor with him; how could they let him die so easily?

”Alright! Tomorrow, I will pay a visit to your Luoyan Dock, hoping you won’t let me down.” Lin Tian said.

”Naturally.” Sixth Elder chuckled.
