When they saw that Lin Chen had ultimately not killed anyone, the others breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious that he had only been trying to frighten them.
Still, to be honest, Zhang Tu had gone too far. The island no longer belonged to him, yet seeing that no one else had come to manage it and that there was only the Island Lord's Palace, he had once again harbored rebellious thoughts.
Back when he took the money, he had agreed so readily. Now that he had spent it all, he wanted to occupy Xueqing Island again. It was truly shameless.
"Then we'll take the people back first, Island Lord. Are you coming back with us, or do you want to look around first?"
Chen Nan asked.
He was no longer worried about Lin Chen's safety. With Lin Chen's skills, there was probably no one on the entire island who could match him.
That was hardly surprising. Anyone capable of controlling Xueqing Island was either immensely wealthy or exceptionally capable. Here, capability referred to a combination of martial skill, financial resources, influence, and other strengths.
After all, this was an independent island. In other words, it was an independent country. Apart from the Island Lord, probably no one knew how to leave.
Clearly, Chen Nan felt that the latter suited Lin Chen's identity better.
"Let's look around. We're not far from the palace entrance, so we'll stroll around first. Don't worry, I can protect all three of them."
Lin Chen said.
"Mm-hmm. Then, Island Lord, we'll be leaving first. Goodbye."
Chen Nan said.
"Goodbye!"
Everyone waved, while Chen Nan had his men take Li Ye, who was sprawled on the street like a dead pig, back with them as well.
The pedestrians on the street gradually dispersed too.
