The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth - Chapter 281



281. Everyone Reveres Hero Lin!

Lin Nuo had repeatedly attracted the attention of important figures who came to offer him drinks, shaking up the Lin family for several years.

The first two times were somewhat related to the two young ladies, but this time, it seemed unrelated.

Could it be connected to that Su Kexin somehow? The Immortal’s old father?

Lin Qian was the most confused. After all, that was the Immortal she admired, and yet, they had offered drinks to Lin Nuo, who responded curtly without any respect.

But in the end, the Immortal wasn’t angry. On the contrary, he said that it was just a normal conversation.

Could it be that even a young cultivator like him could stand on equal footing with a noble Immortal?

Lin Qian specially came over to offer a drink, respectfully saying:

“I, a humble lady, offer a cup to the Immortal Senior, and hope Immortal Senior will grant me the honor.”

However, Zhao Zhou waved his hand to refuse:

“Miss Lin, you are thoughtful, but I’m sorry, we will stop drinking here today. Please, Miss Lin, go back.”

“Dare I ask, Immortal Senior, why did you personally offer a drink to my third brother, Lin Nuo?”

Lin Qian asked, unwilling to give up.

To this question, Zhao Zhou did not refuse but replied cautiously:

“Miss Lin, your third brother possesses extraordinary strength and has done a great service to my Zifeng Valley. My offering him a drink is merely a matter of courtesy.”

“A service? May I ask what service?”

Lin Qian pressed, eager to know more.

“As for what the service is, I cannot say. He is, after all, a very remarkable young man. Miss Lin, he is someone you should take as an example—whether in terms of strength or how he handles matters, he is worthy of your learning.”

“But his Spirit Realm…”

“He is at the third stage of the Spirit Realm. If you consider his Spirit Realm alone, his strength indeed lacks a certain maturity. However, the Spirit Realm is not the only standard by which to measure a person’s true strength. This, Miss Lin, you will need to comprehend slowly.”

Zhao Zhou said with deep meaning, his words carrying a weight that Lin Qian had not fully grasped.

These profound words from the Immortal—she would have to savor them carefully.

After half a year of self-cultivation, he had a general understanding of recent major events after coming out of seclusion, but he hadn’t heard of any significant merits. Did he really miss important information?

The Lin family hadn’t recovered from their shock, one surprise after another, wave after wave, completely unable to stop.

Just the fact that an immortal toasted him already placed Lin Nuo’s status far above theirs.

“Is this child Lin Nuo really like this…”

Lin Yuan asked incredulously from the side.

“Yes, absolutely true, I have no reason to deceive you.”

Zhao Zhou responded firmly, looking at Su Kexin, who was carefully eating the delicious food, and smiled, “Master Lin, there’s one more thing. This young lady named Su Kexin is extraordinarily talented. Her father is a hero and has a friendship with me. I have regarded her as a niece. Moreover, she and Brother Lin Nuo share the sword of Dao companions, and I believe she will become a member of the Lin family in the future.”

“This…”

The Lin family was once again shocked. Oh my, this young lady is really connected to an immortal.

What is this about, the sword of Dao companions? Isn’t that used by couples among cultivators and heroes?

Is this a proposal, or is the immortal proposing?

Has Lin Nuo climbed up to an immortal?

Even so, Zhao Zhou is his elder, but Lin Nuo doesn’t show the respect a junior should have for an elder.

What is going on with Lin Nuo?

“Haha, Master Lin, I’m just saying it casually. I’m letting you know in advance about their situation. Of course, if they do get married one day, we immortals will definitely send great gifts.”

Zhao Zhou laughed heartily. In fact, he came partly to give Lin Nuo face and partly to support Su Kexin.

After all, a young man as outstanding as Lin Nuo is naturally very sought after. It is necessary to use the face of an immortal to give her a hand.

“Oh, senior, my brother and I are not that early.”

Su Kexin covered her face, immersed in this festive atmosphere. Her wish was to become a member of the Lin family and to become true Dao companions with her brother.

The Lin family’s mentality was about to collapse. Lin Nuo suddenly had so many backers, both prestigious families and immortals. This pomp, this status, is going to ascend to heaven.

What’s worse, led by Dai Sheng, the important ministers, following Luo Xiaoxue’s intention, all went to toast Lin Nuo.

In addition, generals returning from the border, who had met Lin Nuo and heard of his deeds, admired Lin Nuo’s character but dared not toast him due to power constraints.

As a result, seeing Dai Sheng and other important ministers toasting, they dared to toast as well.

Lin Nuo was still gnawing on ribs when he found a bunch of people gathering around. So many people of status came to a small servant’s seat.

Lin Nuo was puzzled:

“What are you doing? I’m just gnawing on a rib, I haven’t committed a crime, right?”

“Hero Lin, we toast to you!”

“What?”

Lin Nuo was completely confused. You people drank a few sips of horse urine and got drunk, coming to toast me?

Are you sure you’re not toasting the Lin family folks?

“Why? Give me a reason.”

“Hero Lin defended the borders, quelled internal strife, protected the homeland, and even saved the princess. He is truly a contemporary hero, and we admire him greatly.”

“? Where did these paid commenters come from? How much are you paid per comment?”

“Come, let’s toast to Hero Lin!”

Everyone raised their glasses, drank it all in one go, and then made a gesture of turning their glasses upside down to show that they had finished their drinks.

Lin Nuo: “…”

What the heck, are you all possessed? Did I toast with you?

So you all went to such great lengths to form a group just to insult me?

Lin Nuo said irritably:

“Hurry up and leave, don’t disturb my meal.”

“Alright, we won’t disturb Hero Lin.”

After toasting Lin Nuo, these people returned to their seats.

Things immediately improved.

Due to the influence of herd mentality and fear of being implicated, at first, no one dared to toast Lin Nuo, let alone show goodwill. But when the immortals, ministers, and generals all went, everyone else dared to go.

From noble mtl dot com

Then, good words about Lin Nuo gradually spread at the banquet.

After all, the other children of the Lin family hadn’t done much practical work in recent years, but they were good at oppressing people. In contrast, Lin Nuo, who was close to the servants and focused on practical work, appeared much more like a gentleman.

Xia Hanmo was overjoyed when she heard various praises about Lin Nuo. She held Lin Nuo’s hand and said excitedly:

“Nuo’er, I never expected you to be so promising.”

“What? I’m a useless person, how am I promising?”

“Oh, mother has heard it all. You don’t need to hide it anymore. Those adults, generals, and even immortals are praising you and toasting you. Such illustrious achievements can’t be hidden. Mother is proud of you, mother feels very proud.”

Xia Hanmo patted Lin Nuo’s hand and smiled with relief.

Lin Nuo retorted:

“No, they are slandering me.”

“Who slanders with praise? Nuo’er is teasing mother again. Alright, Nuo’er is modest and low-key, mother knows.”

“……”

You know nothing… They are really slandering me.
