"Be more high-profile?"
Hearing Zhang Ying's words, Lin Chen was stunned for a moment.
Throughout the years, although Long Yuling was the eldest daughter of the Long family, she had always been extremely low-key in her conduct.
Why would she call him now, specifically instructing him to be more high-profile?
"Something happened in Zhe Province. Given the Long family's current status in Zhe Province, who else could cause trouble for the Long family?"
Immediately after, Lin Chen fell into deep thought.
Now that the experts of the Liu family had been eliminated by him, the He family had surrendered to him, and all their assets had been acquired by Ru Shuang Group.
Under these circumstances, who else could make the Long family stumble?
Even if forces from neighboring provinces arrived at the Long family, how could they, possessing the qualifications and strength to destroy the Long family, not know about his relationship with the Long family?
It was absolutely impossible for them to offend him and the Long family at this time!
"Could it be that something happened within the Long family?"
Suddenly, Zhang Ying thought of a possibility and asked Lin Chen.
Given the Long family's current standing in Zhe Province, and even in the entire southwest region, only internal problems would make Long Yuling so tense!
"Yes, it should be."
Hearing Zhang Ying's analysis, Lin Chen nodded, his expression full of certainty.
Indeed, after much consideration, this was the only plausible explanation!
Long Yuling had mentioned before that the Long family headquarters in Kyoto was dissatisfied with the current development of the Long family in Zhe Province. Could it be that they were taking this opportunity to settle scores?
Otherwise, why would Long Yuling have instructed him to be specifically high-profile?
"I understand. In that case, Senior Sister, it's perfect that I've come out of seclusion. Let's pack up immediately and head back to Zhe Province."
Lin Chen then looked at Zhang Ying and suggested.
Long Yuling had been kind to him, the Long family had treated him well, and coupled with the relationship with his martial aunt, he could not possibly abandon the Long family.
"Yes, okay, I'll go and prepare now."
Seeing Lin Chen's expression, although Zhang Ying felt a little jealous, she still nodded in agreement.
However, since they were all cultivators, there was nothing much to pack. In less than ten minutes, everything was ready.
"By the way, since Miss Long asked us to be high-profile, why not bring Wu Long and Wu Hu along?"
"They are from the Huang family, and I can take them to meet Father!"
"Based on the timing, Father should also be close to coming out of seclusion."
Suddenly, Zhang Ying seemed to recall something and suggested to Lin Chen.
The Wu Long and Wu Hu brothers had now taken over the entire Lie Huo Sect, and these two treated Lin Chen as an elder brother!
Taking them along this time would surely have a great deterrent effect on those Long family members!
"Yes, that's good too."
Hearing Zhang Ying's words, Lin Chen nodded and agreed.
Upon receiving Lin Chen's affirmative reply, Zhang Ying immediately took out her phone and called the Wu Long and Wu Hu brothers.
As soon as they heard that they were going to Zhe Province with Lin Chen, the two brothers agreed without a second thought.
Not long after, the group met at the airport, bought their tickets, and boarded the plane to Zhe Province.
"Sorry, Boss. There's no first-class left, so please make do with economy class!"
On the plane, Wu Long said apologetically to Lin Chen beside him.
Given the financial strength of the current Lie Huo Group, even chartering a plane would be no problem. However, Lin Chen was in a hurry and naturally did not have time to arrange it.
"It's fine. First-class or economy class, we'll land at the same time. It's no big deal."
Hearing Wu Long apologize to him about this matter, Lin Chen couldn't help but smile wryly.
In the eyes of these two brothers, was he such an unreasonable person?
Moreover, ever since he started cultivating, he had never sought luxurious enjoyment.
"Hey? Are you, Lin Chen?"
However, just as Lin Chen was about to say something else to Wu Long, a startled cry suddenly came from beside him.
Turning his head, he saw a woman dressed in heavy makeup looking at him dumbfounded, her eyes filled with surprise.
"Uh, I'm sorry, my eyesight might be poor. May I ask who you are?"
Seeing the woman's surprised expression, Lin Chen was a bit confused.
In his opinion, he didn't know the woman in front of him!
But she could directly call out his name, which was indeed astonishing.
It was important to know that after he broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, his memory had become photographic.
Anyone he had seen, he would absolutely never forget.
But the woman in front of him gave him a very unfamiliar feeling, as if he had never met her!
But if he hadn't met her, how could she have called out his name directly?
"Oh my! You really are Lin Chen?"
"I'm Xie Fang! Your high school classmate, we were desk mates in the first year!"
The woman in front of him was extremely excited and introduced herself.
"What? Xie Fang?"
Hearing this name, Lin Chen was stunned, and a rather embarrassing memory immediately surfaced in his mind.
When he first started high school, his family was poor, so he was frail and didn't wear good clothes. He was often ostracized.
And his desk mate in the first year of high school, Xie Fang, had caused him quite a bit of trouble!
But now, so many years had passed, and at that time, they were just in a naive and ignorant age, so Lin Chen hadn't taken it to heart.
He was quite happy to see an old classmate now.
"How is it? You don't recognize me, do you?"
Seeing Lin Chen's shocked expression, Xie Fang was very satisfied.
"Uh... Yes, you've really changed completely!"
Hearing Xie Fang's words, Lin Chen was stunned and replied.
In Lin Chen's memory, Xie Fang wasn't good-looking back then, and more importantly, she was the most famous flat-chested girl in the entire class.
But looking at the woman in front of him now, she could be described as magnificent!
Now that she told him she was the same person, it was no wonder Lin Chen didn't believe it!
However, Lin Chen, being a cultivator, after a subtle observation, he keenly noticed that the woman in front of him had undergone cosmetic surgery!
Even her face had been operated on, so it was no wonder he didn't recognize her.
"Hehehe, people always change."
"Hey? This beautiful lady, can I switch seats with you? I'm in first-class over there, and we're old classmates meeting, I'd like to chat."
Xie Fang then turned her gaze to Zhang Ying, who was sitting next to Lin Chen, and asked.
