Hold It In, Don't Laugh!

"Dou Zong!"

When Xiao Lin unleashed his Dou Qi without reservation, this term immediately popped into everyone's minds.

At first, these Dou Emperor- level power leaders were still wondering, where did another Dou Zong come from at the Jia Nan Academy?

But soon, they thought of something.

"Are you the Dou Zong who came to the Black-Corner Region a few months ago and then joined Jia Nan Academy?"

Remembering something, Ban Lao couldn't help but ask.

"What, you have a problem with that?"

Upon hearing Ban Lao mention it, Xiao Lin couldn't help but glance at him and asked indifferently.

Xiao Lin's question and his gaze instantly made Ban Lao's face turn pale.

"I wouldn't dare. I simply didn't expect Jia Nan Academy to send you here. Please forgive me."

Facing a Dou Zong, Ban Lao would naturally choose to lower his stance!

Not only Ban Lao, but also the other leaders of the various Dou Emperor- level forces present, after realizing who Xiao Lin was, all put away their earlier expressions of dissatisfaction.

Although it wasn't First Elder Su Qian and the two mysterious Grand Elder from the Jia Nan Academy who came, they were still Dou Zong. What could they possibly complain about?

Meanwhile, after Xiao Lin revealed his strength as Dou Zong, the leaders of the Dou Emperor- level forces present were overjoyed.

Because this proves how much importance Jia Nan Academy attaches to this matter, doesn't it?

In this way, their resources won't have been wasted.

It's perfectly normal that they didn't immediately recognize Xiao Lin.

After all, when Xiao Lin first arrived in the Black-Corner Region, he only made a move at the entrance of the Black-Corner Region, and later it was said that he killed a Dou Huang expert.

Apart from that, Xiao Lin never stayed in the Black-Corner Region for more than a day before joining Jia Nan Academy.

These Dou Emperor- level power leaders naturally had no chance to come into contact with Xiao Lin.

But they knew all of these things.

However, they did not expect that Jia Nan Academy would be so bold as to send this mysterious Dou Zong on such an important mission so soon after he joined.

Clearly, this mysterious Dou Zong is highly regarded within the Jia Nan Academy!

After these thoughts popped into their minds, the leaders of these Dou Emperor- level forces dared not neglect Xiao Lin even more.

"Elder Lin, no, Senior Lin, we have been negligent. Please take a seat. We swear that such a thing will never happen again!"

As the host, Fan Lao, the sect leader of the Blood Sect, quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

At the same time, he led Xiao Lin back to his original spot, giving Xiao Lin the host's place.

Seeing this, Xiao Lin sat down without any hesitation.

As the only Dou Zong present, he is qualified to sit here!

Seeing that Xiao Lin had no intention of pursuing the matter further, both Fan Lao, the host, and the other leaders of the Dou Emperor- level forces breathed a sigh of relief.

As for Fan Lao, he quickly found a seat nearby.

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

After everyone was seated, and seeing that they were all looking at him, Xiao Lin spoke expressionlessly.

After Xiao Lin revealed his strength and began to inquire, the leaders of these Dou Emperor- level forces naturally dared not be negligent.

In the end, it was the host Fan Lao, who answered Xiao Lin's question on behalf of everyone else.

"Senior Lin, you only need to come with me for one look to know the answer to this."

Fan Lao did not rush to explain.

After all, some things are better left unsaid; it's better to let the person involved see them for themselves than to say anything more.

"Really?"

Upon hearing Fan Lao's words, Xiao Lin feigned a puzzled expression.

However, he already had a guess in his heart what Fan Lao was going to take him to see.

"Yes, Senior Lin, please follow me."

He hadn't been sitting down long, and hadn't even warmed the chair yet, when Fan Lao stood up again.

Seeing this, Xiao Lin also stood up.

Since even Dou Zong like Xiao Lin stood up, the other Dou Emperor- level power leaders present naturally dared not remain seated.

"Then lead the way."

Xiao Lin said calmly.

Nodding, Fan Lao took the lead, guiding Xiao Lin and the other Dou Emperor- level power leaders towards their Blood Sect's medicinal herb storehouse.

Soon, the group entered the Blood Sect's medicinal herb storehouse.

Because various medicinal herbs have been stored here for a long time, Xiao Lin and his group smelled a fragrance as soon as they stepped inside.

Even though nothing is left here now, the scent of medicine still lingers in the air.

Anyone with a normal nose can smell it once they enter this place.

"Sect Leader Fan, where is this place? Why did you bring me here?"

"If you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way, "Xiao Lin asked, still feigning a confused expression.

Upon hearing Xiao Lin's question, Fan Lao was clearly reminded of unpleasant memories, and his expression turned rather grim.

However, he still answered Xiao Lin's question respectfully.

"Senior Lin, this place was originally our Blood Sect's medicinal herb storehouse!"

At this point, Fan Lao paused and took a deep breath.

At the same time, Fan Lao's words also made the faces of the other Dou Emperor- level power leaders who had come along turn extremely ugly.

After all, they had experienced what the Blood Sect had gone through!

As for Xiao Lin, the mastermind behind the scenes, he could only suppress the urge to laugh as he watched the incredibly interesting expressions on the faces of the various Dou Emperor- level power leaders.

Don't laugh!

Xiao Lin repeatedly reminded himself of this, while also making his face even more serious.

He was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold back his laughter!

However, Xiao Lin's stern expression clearly caused Fan Lao, who had suddenly come to his senses, to misunderstand.

He thought he had angered Xiao Lin by only saying half of what he meant.

"I'm sorry, Senior Lin. My emotions were a little agitated after entering this place. I didn't mean to keep you hanging on, so please forgive me."

As he spoke, Fan Lao bowed deeply to Xiao Lin in a somewhat fearful manner, apologizing profusely.

"It's alright. Just tell me why you brought me here."

What could Xiao Lin do in this situation?

I guess I'll just have to keep pretending to be confused.

"Phew~"

Seeing that Xiao Lin didn't seem to blame him, Fan Lao let out a sigh of relief and quickly pulled his wandering thoughts back.

"Senior Lin, as you can see, our Blood Sect's medicinal herb warehouse has been completely looted by some unknown bastard. Moreover, in addition to our Blood Sect, the medicinal herb warehouses of the other sects and forces present here have also been looted!"

This is why so many like-minded people have gathered in our Blood Sect today.

As Fan Lao finished speaking, the other Dou Emperor- level power leaders present also nodded.

"So what does this have to do with the Jia Nan Academy?"

Glancing at the expressions of Fan Lao and the others, Xiao Lin pretended not to know and continued to ask in return.
