Wang Yang nodded and said calmly:
"That's right, it's Wang!"
Lin Zhennan was utterly shocked when he heard Wang Yang admit it.
The many bodyguards and guards in the courtyard were also astonished.
After all, Wang Yang's reputation in the martial arts world was simply too great.
Not to mention Lin Zhennan, even ordinary bodyguards like them had long heard of Wang Yang's great name.
"Is he Alliance Leader Wang?"
"She really is as young as the rumors say!"
"No wonder he's surrounded by so many beauties, it's him!"
"I've heard that Alliance Leader Wang is a great hero. Why is he here at the Lin family? Could it be that he's also after that fictitious peerless sword manual?"
"Or is it that Alliance Leader Wang's arrival is to help us?"
"..."
Immediately, the crowd began to discuss the matter.
At this moment, Lin Zhennan calmed down a little.
Then, he quickly stepped aside and made a respectful gesture towards Wang Yang and the others.
"So it's Alliance Leader Wang who has graced us with his presence. We apologize for not welcoming you sooner!"
"Quickly! Please come inside and take a seat!"
Wang Yang smiled calmly and, without any ceremony, led Zhao Min and the other beauties into the hall.
After they were seated, Madam Wang immediately ordered her servants to serve tea to Wang Yang and the others.
At this moment, Lin Zhennan looked at Wang Yang with slight unease and asked:
"Alliance Leader Wang, may I ask what brings you to my Lin family this time?"
Wang Yang smiled slightly and, without beating around the bush, replied directly, "Naturally, it's for that peerless sword manual!"
Upon hearing Wang Yang's words, Lin Zhennan's expression changed drastically, and he quickly said:
"To be honest, my Lin family does not have that so-called peerless sword manual at all."
"I wonder who spread this rumor."
"Nowadays, so many martial arts practitioners have come to Fuzhou City, all coveting that fictitious sword manual!"
"It has made my Lin family extremely nervous and on edge."
At this point, Lin Zhennan sighed helplessly.
Without waiting for Wang Yang to say anything, he quickly added:
"The leader of the Alliance, Suwen Wang, is benevolent and righteous, and he is dedicated to righting wrongs in the martial arts world."
"I, Lin, humbly request Leader Wang to help my Lin family overcome the current crisis!"
After saying this, Lin Zhennan quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Wang Yang.
Wang Yang noticed this and smiled slightly.
Thinking about it, Lin Zhennan is indeed shrewd.
He only said he came for the sword manual; he hasn't said anything else yet.
Lin Zhennan's speech elevated him to a moral high ground.
If he came here to steal the peerless sword manual, I would really feel embarrassed to make a move.
Of course, Wang Yang's purpose was not to seek out any sword manual.
Just as Lin Zhennan had hoped, he did so to quell the dispute.
After a moment of hesitation, Wang Yang recovered and smiled, saying:
"Chief镖师 Lin, please rest assured, I have come here to settle this matter!"
Upon hearing what Wang Yang said, Lin Zhennan was overjoyed.
At first, he felt utterly hopeless.
After all, with the Lin family's limited manpower, they simply couldn't stop so many martial arts practitioners.
Moreover, trying to explain at this point that the Lin family doesn't have the so-called peerless sword manual would only make things worse, and no one would believe it.
He originally thought that the Lin family was likely doomed this time.
Who would have thought that at this critical juncture, Wang Yang would actually lead his men to the Lin family's residence.
After a moment's thought, Lin Zhennan quickly recovered and looked at Wang Yang with gratitude, saying:
"Thank you so much, Alliance Leader Wang, for your righteous help!"
"On behalf of the Lin family, I express my gratitude."
As he spoke, Lin Zhennan bowed deeply to Wang Yang again.
Lin Zhennan was also very familiar with the rumors surrounding Wang Yang.
Whether it was defeating the Yuan army in Xiangyang or thwarting the Ming army in Tahu City, he killed many martial arts masters of the Ming Dynasty.
All of this demonstrates that Wang Yang's strength is extraordinary!
In Lin Zhennan's view, with Wang Yang's involvement, the outside world of martial arts figures would definitely be deterred.
Just as Lin Zhennan was lost in thought, Wang Yang turned his gaze and looked at him:
"Chief镖头 Lin, I can help your Lin family deal with the current crisis."
"However, I do have a legitimate reason for doing so."
"Alright then, your Fuwei Escort Agency will join our Martial Arts Alliance from this day forward."
"As a member of the Martial Arts Alliance, it is only right for me, as the leader, to help you!"
Upon hearing what Wang Yang said, Lin Zhennan nodded in agreement without hesitation:
"good!"
"From this day forward, my Fuwei Escort Agency joins the Martial Arts Alliance."
"We will follow the lead of Alliance Leader Wang in everything!"
Seeing that Lin Zhennan was so cooperative, Wang Yang smiled with satisfaction.
At this moment, Lin Zhennan suddenly remembered something and quickly looked at Madam Wang, who was standing beside him, and said:
"Wife, quickly go and bring Ping'er out!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Wang paused for a moment, then understood and hurriedly left.
"Ping'er?"
Wang Yang muttered something under his breath.
Others might not know who Ping'er was, but he knew it all too well—it was none other than Lin Zhennan's son, Lin Pingzhi.
A short while later, Madam Wang led a young boy into the hall.
Seeing this, Lin Zhennan quickly spoke up:
"Alliance Leader Wang, this is my son, Lin Pingzhi!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhennan quickly looked at Lin Pingzhi and urged him:
"Ping'er, why aren't you coming forward to pay your respects to Alliance Leader Wang?"
On the way here, Madam Wang told Lin Pingzhi that Wang Yang, the leader of the martial arts alliance, had come to the Lin family.
Lin Pingzhi was naturally familiar with Wang Yang.
Although he had never met him, he already held Wang Yang in high esteem.
Especially when I think of Wang Yang's carefree and unrestrained spirit in indulging in the martial world while upholding the greater good of the nation, I admire him even more!
"Pingzhi greets Alliance Leader Wang!"
Upon entering, Lin Pingzhi excitedly greeted Wang Yang.
Wang Yang smiled calmly, then looked at Lin Zhennan and asked:
"Chief镖师 Lin, what do you mean by this?"
Lin Zhennan pursed his lips, and without keeping them in suspense, said directly:
"Leader Wang, I would like my son to follow you and learn from you to broaden his horizons."
"Of course, I did this in the hope that with the protection of Alliance Leader Wang, my son would not suffer any misfortune."
"We hope that Alliance Leader Wang will grant our request!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhennan stared intently at Wang Yang, his eyes full of pleading!
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi was startled.
He had long wanted to venture out and make his way in the world, but Lin Zhennan and his wife had always refused.
Nowadays, if he had the opportunity to travel the world with a big shot like Wang Yang, it would be something he would be eager to do.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Pingzhi also looked at Wang Yang, his eyes full of expectation.
"Um?"
After hearing what Lin Zhennan said, Wang Yang glanced at him and looked thoughtful.
He didn't dislike Lin Pingzhi at all.
In the novel *The Smiling, Proud Wanderer*, he was born into a wealthy merchant family and was pampered from a young age, unaware of the dangers of the world.
Though not highly skilled in martial arts, she is kind, chivalrous, pure, proud, beautiful, and filial.
