Chapter 140 Lin Fan attended the meeting
The two of them rushed all the way to the alliance's meeting place. When Lin Fan stopped and took a closer look, he was stunned by the scene before him.
According to common sense, an alliance meeting place like theirs that required high confidentiality and low-key operations should be hidden in an unknown corner. However, the building before him was completely different from what he had imagined. The building was ablaze with lights, as bright as day, as if illuminating the entire night.
"Wenyu, are you sure this is the place? This place looks more like a restaurant to me!" Lin Fan turned to Zhang Wenyu beside him with a look of suspicion and asked.
"Yes, this is indeed the venue for our alliance meeting. It is also the largest and most famous Tianxianlai Restaurant in Jigui City. In fact, when I first received the relevant news, my reaction was almost exactly the same as yours. I thought this matter was really incredible. But after thinking about it carefully, I seem to understand the reason. As the saying goes, the more seemingly dangerous a place is, the safer it is. Maybe those people chose this place as the meeting place with this idea in mind." Zhang Wenyu answered Lin Fan's questions in an orderly manner.
"Oh, I see... Since I'm already here, forget about it and just go in and take a look." After a little thought, Lin Fan stopped dwelling on it and walked towards the gate without hesitation. Although he had no idea about the specific destination of his trip at this time, his strong curiosity drove him to move forward courageously.
Seeing that Lin Fan had already started walking forward, Zhang Wenyu did not dare to delay at all and hurriedly followed him in two steps. Soon, the two of them arrived at the door of a private room together.
"This is the agreed location, let's go in."
After entering the room, Lin Fan slowly turned his head and glanced cautiously at everyone around him. He saw that this originally unremarkable small private room was actually occupied by four people. What was even more eye-catching was that there was another person standing next to each of these four people. Their respectful attitude made them look as if they were the subordinates or servants of these people.
At this moment, Zhang Wenyu smiled, clasped his hands together, and politely said to the four people sitting upright in front of him, "I'm so sorry, everyone, we're a little late and have kept you waiting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man sitting in the middle seat waved his hand and laughed heartily: "Haha, it's okay, it's okay. We just arrived early. There's no need to be so formal. But, Alliance Leader Zhang, the person next to you looks unfamiliar. I wonder if you could introduce him to us?" As he spoke, his eyes fell directly on Lin Fan, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Wenyu quickly turned sideways, pointed at Lin Fan, and introduced him to everyone, "Patriarch Lin is absolutely right. This is none other than my good friend, Lin Fan. And to be honest, he's more than just my friend. In fact, he's one of the founding fathers of the Cultivators' Alliance. Over the years, his contributions to the Cultivators' Alliance have been no less significant than mine."
After hearing this, everyone present was slightly startled, and then expressions of admiration appeared on their faces. The middle-aged uncle known as the head of the Lin family was even more smiling, and said enthusiastically: "I see, so that's how it is. My apologies! Since Brother Lin is also a member of the Cultivation Alliance, then he is naturally one of us. Welcome! Come on, please take your seats!"
After receiving the invitation, Lin Fan and Zhang Wenyu smiled at each other, then walked towards their seats and sat down steadily.
At this moment, the young man who had been sitting quietly on the far left of the private room suddenly spoke up, "Alright, alright, now that everyone's here, let's not waste time on those pleasantries. I think it's better to get straight to the point. What do you all think?"
Hearing this, the others nodded in agreement, and thus an important discussion began.
Tonight, the five major forces in Jigui City gathered together, and the only purpose of their gathering here was to discuss the response strategy for the grand birthday banquet that City Lord Liu was about to hold.
"I wonder if you have any unique insights or ideas about this?" The head of the Lin family asked first.
Before he finished speaking, another person couldn't wait to take over the conversation: "In my opinion, that old man will definitely use all his tricks and all kinds of excuses to make us..."
Just like that, everyone spoke one after another and expressed their opinions. The whole conference room was suddenly filled with a tense and heated atmosphere. This heated discussion lasted for a long time, during which various opinions collided with each other and sparks flew. Finally, after a heated debate, the meeting finally ended successfully.
The six people in the private room, including Lin Fan, had all expressed their thoughts and formulated corresponding strategies for different situations. There was no doubt that this meeting was a huge success and everyone got the results they expected.
However, just as the meeting was drawing to a close, the young man who had been quite lively earlier suddenly spoke up to ask them to stay, "Brother Lin, Brother Zhang, it's a rare opportunity for us all to get together today. How about staying and having a drink together?"
Faced with such a warm invitation, Lin Fan and Zhang Wenyu exchanged a glance and simultaneously declined politely, "I'm so sorry, brother. We appreciate your kindness, but we both have important matters to attend to, so we can't stay longer. Let's meet again another day."
After saying that, the two of them hurriedly bowed and said goodbye to everyone, then turned around and quickly left the Tianxianlai Restaurant, leaving only two figures gradually moving away behind them.
"All you have to do next is quietly wait for the grand banquet to arrive. During this time, you have plenty of time to return to Jigui City and embark on a new journey of exploration. Although the owner of this city may not be a kind person, this does not in any way affect its charm and make it a place well worth visiting. Besides, in my opinion, with the short time you spent this afternoon, you certainly haven't explored it to its full potential!"
After hearing this, Lin Fan nodded without hesitation and said, "That's right. Since you suggest so, then of course I will have fun here to my heart's content."
Afterwards, Zhang Wenyu introduced to Lin Fan all the fun things in Jigui City, and Lin Fan listened very carefully. The two of them talked as they walked, and finally returned to the door of the Cultivation Alliance.
After greeting each other at the door of the Alliance, they left. Lin Fan went to rest, while Zhang Wenyu continued to deal with the affairs of the alliance.
