"Someone has come to visit me? And three of them?"

At this moment, Xiao Lin had ten thousand questions popping up in his mind.

After coming to the Central Plains, he didn't recall making friends with anyone. At most, he could be considered to have a bit of a relationship with the Falling Star Pavilion side.

But after he helped the Falling Star Pavilion improve and repair the Great Falling Star Formation, he had already left the Southern Region territory of the Central Plains long ago, so it was impossible for those people to come all this way looking for him!

Aside from that, the only other person he had a relationship with was the headmaster of the Jia Nan Academy, Mang Tianchi.

However, before parting ways back then, the other party had said that he would return to his clan to enter secluded cultivation to prepare for breaking through to Ban Sheng.

So it was clearly impossible for him to suddenly end his cultivation and come looking for him now. Furthermore, this time it was actually three people looking for him all at once!

Then it was even more impossible to be Mang Tianchi.

"Who is looking for me, and for what matter?"

After failing to sort out the clues, Xiao Lin simply spoke up directly to inquire.

"This, honored guest, this lowly one does not know either, they only said they came to visit you for an important matter..."

Xiao Lin's inquiry clearly made the innkeeper feel put on the spot.

Thinking about it, it made sense; those who could come looking for Xiao Lin would definitely not be simple characters!

How could characters like that explain everything clearly to an innkeeper?

Xiao Lin: "..."

Inside the room, Xiao Lin fell into a silence.

At the very beginning, Xiao Lin had suspected whether it was Huang Quan Zun Zhe of the Yellow Spring Pavilion using his own connections to find strong experts to deal with him.

One must know, this was not impossible.

After all, though the overall strength of the Yellow Spring Pavilion was just ordinary in Xiao Lin's eyes. 

For them to be able to stand tall in the Central Plains for so many years, saying that it didn't have some involvements with other forces was clearly impossible!

This was also the reason why when Xiao Lin stormed the Yellow Spring Pavilion earlier, he didn't choose to directly annihilate the Yellow Spring Pavilion. 

Because, God knows if the Yellow Spring Pavilion had entangled relationships with any other forces.

If things went wrong, Xiao Lin might destroy the Yellow Spring Pavilion today, and tomorrow some old monster who had once received favors from the Yellow Spring Pavilion would appear, running over to seek revenge on him.

After all, he was only a Nine-Star Dou Zun right now, not a Nine-Star Dou Sheng!

If he reached the realm of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, perhaps he could begin to have absolutely no taboos, but right now it was clearly still not possible.

This pool of water in the Central Plains was very deep indeed!

It is said that the Jianghu is not just about fighting and killing, but also about the ways of the world and human relationships.

Xiao Lin still understood this principle.

He was not like those brainless protagonists in certain novels, directly rushing up recklessly without leaving a single way out for themselves. They did that because they had the protagonist aura, but as for this kind of aura, Xiao Lin never felt that he had it!

Therefore, in doing things, what Xiao Lin always sought was a single word, "stability"!

However, Xiao Lin only suspected the other party was a helper invited by the Yellow Spring Pavilion at the very beginning, and subsequently dismissed this guess.

No matter what, the other party had shown their attitude by using the words "to visit", which clearly meant they didn't come with hostility. If there was really hostility, how could it be a visit, and even troubling the innkeeper to pass the message?

They would probably have already fought their way in by this moment!

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin was also a little more at ease.

At least, when he went to meet these three people next, he didn't need to fear that they would directly fight each other.

"Honored guest..."

Xiao Lin's silence clearly made the innkeeper outside the door a little worried.

He was afraid that his rash interruption had made Xiao Lin angry.

"Creak"

Just as the innkeeper was letting his imagination run wild, Xiao Lin had already pushed open the room door and walked out.

"Manager, take me to see them."

This sentence from Xiao Lin was already equivalent to stating his attitude.

"Yes! Honored guest, I will arrange it right away!"

Only until this moment did the innkeeper finally let out a sigh of relief.

Subsequently, the innkeeper brought Xiao Lin to a small courtyard. Here, three middle-aged men were sitting upright with their eyes closed. After bringing Xiao Lin here, the innkeeper left directly.

Of course, Xiao Lin's arrival also caused these three middle-aged men to open their eyes one after another. No matter what, they were all Dou Zun powerhouses, so they were still able to sense this slight movement.

However, when Xiao Lin saw these three people, he was directly taken aback.

"Two Five-Star Dou Zun, one Six-Star Dou Zun, my goodness, which force do they come from? To actually have such a grand style!"

With just a single glance, Xiao Lin instantly saw through the Dou Qi cultivation of these three middle-aged men.

At the same time, Xiao Lin also felt infinitely puzzled about why three such unfamiliar mid-stage Dou Zun powerhouses would come looking for him.

Unfamiliar, yet holding no hostility!

Could they be here to win him over?

Xiao Lin could not help but think to himself in his heart.

"Your Excellency should be the Lin Xiao who stormed the Yellow Spring Pavilion a while ago, forcing Huang Quan Zun Zhe to subsequently announce a ten-year pavilion closure, right?"

Looking at the approaching Xiao Lin, that Six-Star Dou Zun first sized him up for a moment, and then spoke up very politely to ask.

Only, this matter he brought up was not very polite to the Yellow Spring Pavilion.

But who would care anyway?

"If another Lin Xiao didn't storm the Yellow Spring Pavilion recently, then the person you are talking about should be me, however, who might the three of you be?"

Xiao Lin nodded, not denying the matter, and then also spoke up to ask in return.

The identities of these three people were a mystery, so Xiao Lin naturally wanted to clear it up at this moment.

"Ground Line Gate—Yan Lu!"

"Mysterious Space Sect—Bei Fengyan!"

"Reflecting Treasure Mountain—Jian Xuan!"

The three of them reported their names one after another.

It was also until this very moment that Xiao Lin learned that these three people actually did not come from the same force.

"Hmm? Ground Line Gate, Mysterious Space Sect, Reflecting Treasure Mountain, how do the names of these three sects sound so familiar?"

Xiao Lin's brow furrowed slightly, feeling unfamiliar with the names of these three sects, yet at the same time feeling they sounded somewhat familiar to his ears.

Under such a situation, there was only one possibility, which was that he must have seen the names of these three sects within Battle Through the Heavens in his past life.

But it was likely that they appeared relatively rarely, which caused him to be unable to recall them for the moment.

"Then the purpose of the three of you coming to look for me today is?"

Although he couldn't recall it for the moment, since people had come to visit him in a courteous and polite manner, Xiao Lin naturally would not lose his manners either, so he also temporarily put down his thoughts regarding these three sects.

However, very quickly, the words of the three people next would make him recall immediately exactly where he had heard the names of these three sects!

"Mr. Lin Xiao, the matter goes like this, the three of us represent the forces we belong to behind us, and we wish to invite Mr. Lin Xiao to participate in the once-a-decade Spatial Trade Fair of the Central Plains one year from now!"

At this time, Jian Xuan, the Six-Star Dou Zun powerhouse from Reflecting Treasure Mountain, also stated the purpose of their coming to look for Xiao Lin.

Ever since the matter of Xiao Lin storming the Yellow Spring Pavilion spread a while ago, the leaders of these three hidden sects naturally believed that Xiao Lin was qualified enough to participate in this Spatial Trade Fair.

It had to be said, this was also one benefit of fame.

"Ground Line Gate, Mysterious Space Sect, Reflecting Treasure Mountain, so it's them! The three main organizers behind the scenes of the Spatial Trade Fair! No wonder, I felt they sounded so familiar to my ears."

Until this very moment, Xiao Lin finally understood.

Turns out after his fame spread, people came to his door to invite him to participate in the Spatial Trade Fair!

This was a solid piece of good news for the current Xiao Lin.

One must know, the lowest requirement to enter the Spatial Trade Fair was peak Dou Zong!

In addition, although the Spatial Trade Fair allowed all powerhouses above peak Dou Zong to participate, if you did not have the invitation of the three great sects, you could only enter the Spatial Trade Fair to set up a street stall at most.

The most core central trading ground was something you absolutely could not enter.

Now, the three great sects coming to invite Xiao Lin naturally felt that Xiao Lin had this qualification to enter that most core central trading ground of the Spatial Trade Fair!

For Xiao Lin, how could this not be good news?
