The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth - Chapter 280
280. The Arrival of the Immortals
Zhao Zhou and other immortals had deliberately restrained their immortal aura, looking no different from ordinary people.
Moreover, these immortals had long advised the Lin family not to be too ostentatious and to treat them as ordinary people.
However, the visit of immortals was a big deal, and the Lin family would not miss this great opportunity.
So, as soon as Zhao Zhou and other immortals arrived, the person in charge of reception confirmed their identities and then raised his voice, shouting, “The immortals are here!”
This shout was effective, and most of the guests at the banquet knew about it.
However, Lin, who was performing the three-bite pig act, didn’t care. After all, there were always surprising things at banquets, which were commonplace.
He was an old hand, long accustomed to such scenes.
In his view, when these people started making a fuss, it must be because some big shot had arrived. Someone would say, “It’s him, that big shot is here,” or something like that.
When they started whispering, it must be because some detestable person had arrived, and they would say, “That scoundrel is here,” or something like that.
The appearance of the immortals naturally caused a strong reaction, and now the banquet suddenly became noisy. Lin Nuo knew what was going on.
But he didn’t care. In his view, big shots were nothing more than ants, not worth his attention.
Mainly, he was now choking on the three-bite pig, and Li Ruo’er and Xia Hanmo hurriedly patted him to make him spit it out, which was quite a struggle for him.
Back to Zhao Zhou and the other immortals, they had already entered the banquet.
“Welcome, immortals, to the grand celebration of the Lin family. Your presence is truly a great honor for us!”
Lin Yuan personally greeted them, courteously, as if he were hosting the son of the emperor.
“Apologies, Lord Lin, there were some matters in Zifeng Valley that needed handling, which delayed us a bit. Lord Lin, didn’t we agree in the letter beforehand not to be too high-profile? Treat us as ordinary people, your warm hospitality really makes us feel out of place.”
Facing everyone’s gaze, Zhao Zhou felt a bit embarrassed, always feeling like some high-ranking official, attending too ostentatiously. If word got back to Zifeng Valley, he would surely be ridiculed by other immortals.
However, Lin Yuan continued to smile and said:
“Ah, esteemed immortals, please don’t be so polite. You are noble immortals and should be treated with the highest respect. It is also an honor for our Lin family. Please allow me to introduce my children…”
Lin Yuan took the opportunity to introduce his children to the immortals, and the children also greeted the immortals in turn.
The most excited among them was Lin Qian. After all, becoming an immortal is the wish of every cultivator. Being able to face the immortals of Zifeng Valley in person was a great honor.
“Greetings, immortals! My name is Lin Qian, the sixth daughter of the Lin family. I am currently cultivating in Hunfeng Sect and have reached the fifth stage of the Spirit Realm. I hope to enter the path of immortality in the future, to uphold justice, slay demons, and bring peace to the world! I humbly ask for your guidance, immortals, I would be immensely grateful!”
Lin Qian greeted the immortals excitedly, expressing her grand ambitions with fervor and determination.
“Greetings, Miss Lin. You are talented and intelligent. If you continue to work hard in your cultivation, you will surely enter the path of immortality in the future.”
Zhao Zhou responded politely. He could roughly tell if someone could become an immortal, and Lin Qian was not suitable.
As for talent and strength, in the past, Zhao Zhou would have considered her mediocre.
But after encountering Lin Nuo, he dared not make a hasty judgment.
After all, Lin Nuo was only at the third stage of the Spirit Realm, yet his achievements were extraordinary, and he had even saved Zifeng Valley. How could Zhao Zhou dare to make a rash judgment?
Moreover, this was the Lin family’s place, so he spoke politely.
“Lord Lin, where are our seats?”
“Please follow me, immortals.”
Lin Yuan smiled and led Zhao Zhou and the other immortals to their seats.
They sat together with Su Kexin, who was delighted to see them arrive.
“Masters, you are here!”
“Apologies, Kexin, we were delayed by some matters.”
“No problem, no problem, it’s great that you could come. Please, have a seat! Masters, the dishes here are delicious, please try them.”
“Ha, then we must try them.”
Zhao Zhou and the others laughed and sat down, and Su Kexin quickly poured them tea.
Then Zhao Zhou waved to stop Su Kexin:
“No need to pour, Kexin, I’ll do it myself.”
With that, Zhao Zhou poured himself a cup of wine and asked:
“By the way, Kexin, where is young brother Lin Nuo? Lord Lin introduced his children earlier, but I didn’t see him, and he wasn’t at the Lin family’s table. Isn’t he sitting with you?”
“I am here on behalf of the immortals, so I shouldn’t be sitting with Senior Brother. He, well, he is sitting with the servants.”
Su Kexin pointed to a seat in the corner. The corner was remote, the position was poor, and it was indeed hard to notice.
“He is the young master of the Lin family, why is he sitting with the servants?”
“Senior, you don’t understand~”
Su Kexin became proud, “Although Senior Brother is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, even if he has made numerous great achievements, he is not arrogant. He is willing to be close to the common people. Even though he is the young master of the Lin family, he does not have the airs of a young master. Even at the grand celebration of the Lin family, he is willing to sit with the servants.”
“Oh? No wonder he is so admirable. Despite being in a high position and making numerous great achievements, he has not forgotten his original intention. Such a mindset is truly worthy of our respect.”

Zhao Zhou immediately raised his wine glass and stood up, “I must toast to Brother Lin Nuo.”
The people of the Lin family wanted to raise their wine glasses to toast the immortals, but they all ran to Lin Nuo’s seat.
Lin Nuo failed the challenge of eating three pig heads in one go, choked for a while, and finally caught his breath. Next time, he should find a smaller pig head, or he might die young.
“Brother Lin Nuo.”
Lin Nuo heard a familiar voice and looked over.
What? This ghost immortal also came to join the feast of fish and meat, how degenerate.
“Hmm? Why did you come to this shabby place?”
“Haha, Brother Lin Nuo, you are really funny. Of course, we came to attend the banquet.”
“Are you all right? Immortals should go to the heavenly palace for a banquet. What virtue and ability does the Lin family have to let you come to the banquet?”
While everyone was politely praising the Lin family, only Lin Nuo did not give the Lin family face and kept talking about its shortcomings.
Originally, he wanted to come quietly, eat the banquet, and then leave, but many people came to trouble him midway, so he didn’t need to be low-key with them.
Zhao Zhou laughed:
“Haha, if it weren’t for Brother Lin Nuo, we wouldn’t have come. This trip is quite an eye-opener, and it is indeed a good outing.”
“As long as you are happy, go back and eat, don’t mention me.”
“Brother Lin Nuo, how about a toast?”
“Another toast?”
Lin Nuo was directly puzzled. He was hiding in the corner, and people kept coming to toast him.
“Fine.”
Lin Nuo casually clinked glasses with Zhao Zhou and the other immortals and drank the wine.
“Go back to where you came from, don’t disturb me.”
“Okay, then we won’t disturb Brother Lin Nuo’s meal.”
Zhao Zhou drank it all in one go and then returned to his seat.
The people of the Lin family were dumbfounded again.
This immortal took the initiative to toast him, what’s going on?!
