The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 1010: Chapter 1010: The Heaven-Covering Net

Lin Tian sat at the head of the table, secretly amused by the expressions on everyone’s faces.

These old fools, they deserve it!

Lin Tian picked up the white porcelain wine pot and filled his earthenware cup before saying, ”I invited everyone today firstly for a drink, since many didn’t enjoy themselves yesterday. Secondly, to discuss a major issue.”

Upon hearing the second half, everyone’s eyes brightened, their gaze turning towards Lin Tian.

”Come, let’s have a toast first, and then talk while drinking.”

Helplessly, everyone had to join him for a drink.

”Everyone must be aware of the incident at the True Martial Hall a few days ago. The cause lies with me. A man without sin can still be guilty for bearing a coveted treasure. Regardless, I’m someone who holds grudges, so I want to ask everyone for a suggestion.” Lin Tian said lightly.

The group looked at each other, exchanging glances, but no one spoke.

The exceptionally quiet hall fell silent enough to hear a pin drop. Lin Tian gently tapped the table with his finger and asked, ”Does anyone have any good ideas?”

The silence remained, unbroken.

”I heard that the Wang Family has an official vying for a position recently. Does no one have any thoughts on this?”

Lin Tian’s voice wasn’t loud, yet it rang as a conspicuous signal to everyone present.

This matter was finally brought up.

None of those present were fools. Though they had been in seclusion for years, once emerging, they quickly understood the situation. The high-ranking official from the Wang Family was seen by many as a thorn in their side, though no one had mentioned it.

Why?

The reason is simple; it’s a difficult bone to chew—no, it’s more precise to say it’s a tiger with fangs.

To pull teeth from a tiger’s mouth, the most injured would be the first person to act, so nobody wants to be the one leading the charge.

”I know what everyone is worried about, it’s just the Wang Family, not a solo fight. Here, including the Alliance, there are twelve powers. Can the Wang Family really not be handled? Frankly speaking, if everyone gives a slap, the Wang Family wouldn’t be able to bear it. Isn’t that right, everyone?”

”Lin, that’s correct. But everyone can’t work for free, right?” The speaker was Xu Shoujiang, Miaoqiu’s uncle, a Golden Core master from the Xu Family.

Such a major play couldn’t be performed by Lin Tian alone, naturally, a partner was needed.

Someone wanted benefits, so Lin Tian smoothly replied, ”How about this, if everyone is willing to help, each family will receive at least one hundred Qi Increasing Elixirs and Longevity Elixirs; besides, I don’t want any of the Wang Family’s resources, they will be divided among you all.”

Wow~

This truly tempted many; one hundred of each means a total of two hundred!

Yesterday, they were calculating how many elixirs could be left after production, but the results were disappointing since sixty percent had to be handed over to Lin Tian, it was like cutting their flesh!

Now Lin Tian was willing to take much less, it’s great news, allowing many resources to be kept within their families.

Another critical point is the Wang Family’s resources, that is a massive fortune!

After a pause, Lin Tian asked again, ”How is everyone considering it? If it won’t work, I’ll find another way, no need to trouble everyone.”

This tone was exceedingly definitive, leaving those still wanting to negotiate with no room for discussion.

A joke! To annihilate the Wang Family was something they were very willing to do. Now there’s such a generous reward, only a fool would refuse.

”Count the Xu Family in.” Xu Shoujiang said.

The crowd all rolled their eyes. Who didn’t know the Xu Family and Lin Tian were in cahoots? The lady of the family had slept with him, they were part of the family, and what does leading mean?

At this moment, a hoarse voice spoke, ”The Tang Family can also contribute.”

The speaker sat in a more secluded corner, this was a Golden Core master from the Tang Family, naturally, a master of poisons, who nearly lost his life testing poisons in his youth and ultimately survived the ordeal, albeit with a ruined voice, so this elderly man rarely spoke.

”The Xv Family will join too.”

”And the Tan Family.”

”...”

Following such a trend became a sort of craze; inexplicably, everyone followed along, joining Lin Tian’s plan.

Lin Tian chuckled heartily twice, saying, ”Thank you all. Let’s first toast; hoping everything goes smoothly.”

Upon hearing about drinking, many people showed bitter expressions, but this toast was to celebrate future success, there was no escaping it.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed, with three major tables nearly empty, save for Lin Tian and Miaoqiu, everyone was drunk again and carried home by their respective family members.

Yesterday, two and a half hours produced similar effects, yet today, in just half an hour, without the fervor of yesterday’s clinking of glasses.

Clearly, quite a few people feigned drunkenness as a means of escape.

Lin Tian stifled a laugh, being able to mess with these old geezers was indeed a comfort to both body and soul!

...

On the second day, the ’Operation Annihilate Wang’ quietly began.

With eleven families, plus the family alliance, it formed a vast invisible net that could cover the entire Celestial Dragon Continent, with Kanyue City naturally among it.

Under this giant net, countless lives and deaths were controlled within.

The Wang Family used to be one of the overseers of this net, with innumerable eyes and ears, it wasn’t easy to hide things from them, and ultimately, the operation was exposed.

But what could the Wang Family do upon discovering this? How can one Wang Family compete against so many powers? Just as Lin Tian said, if everyone slaps, they could slap the Wang Family to death.

If a single family acted independently, it might be easier to handle; at worst, they could band together and drag them down, nobody would end well.

Unfortunately, this time these people were too united, causing endless troubles for the Wang Family, defense couldn’t be maintained, let alone striking offensively?

...

With ears not hearing the sounds outside, a soft bed and a tender waist.

This decadent and depraved life, many envy and covet, yet none can attain.

Lin Tian also really enjoys such a life, with the only flaw being the poor soundproofing in this room.

Miaoqiu pulled over the quilt, half-concealed over her chest.

”Comfortable?” Lin Tian propped his cheek, asking with a mischievous smile.

”Yes, you really are a pervert, aren’t you?” Miaoqiu asked.

Lin Tian’s face went dark, rolling his eyes.

”Alright alright, no more jokes.” Miaoqiu said, ”Aren’t you anxious, planning to go out and ask about the situation now?”

Lin Tian shook his head, ”No rush, I merely provided an excuse, they’ve wanted to do this for a long time, the progress will surely be faster than I imagined.”
