The ivory Lin Zhen was holding was from a mammoth. He took hold of it, ready for a fight.
Two martial artists near Jin Haonan had been eyeing Lin Zhen, clearly recognizing who he was.
However, Jin Haonan was presently busy stealing women and didn't have time to deal with Lin Zhen just yet.
Lin Zhen was good at predicting danger, and he could bet that Jin Haonan and his men would eventually target him.
Since a showdown was inevitable, it was better to strike first. That was a principle Lin Zhen had always believed in.
Other than this, there was another reason. The Star River Giant Beast Alliance was a super organization, and they wouldn't tolerate being bullied by underworld groups from Intermediate Cosmic Nations like the Heavenly Tower. If they did, those on top of the Alliance would definitely be displeased.
It was disgraceful how oblivious Huo Li and his men were to situations. Lin Zhen would not humiliate himself.
