Dragon Emperor, Martial God Chapter 379

Chapter 379 - You Cannot Afford!

“Purely rumors…”

When Luo Zhong, the Director of Qingshui City’s Public Security Bureau, became the target of over a thousand angry people in front of the hundreds of reporters with microphones and cameras as well as his subordinates, he knew that he had lost! This was especially so when he repeated ‘purely rumors’ with a dry throat!

This was a straightforward, swift, and complete loss for him!

Ever since Wednesday, when Luo Zhong managed to shake off his strong competitor, Tang Tianhao, it could be said that everything he wanted and wished for went his way. This was especially true for the series of planned attacks to destroy Ling Yun. Every blow was struck fiercely on Ling Yun’s vitals!

Over the past four days, Luo Zhong had been caught smiling in his dreams, and even the water from the fountain tasted sweet. The only thing he didn’t do was say to the mirror: You’re the most handsome Director of the Public Security Bureau!

He had been awaiting Ling Yun’s return. Once Ling Yun returned, and once he managed to arrest Ling Yun, he would personally charge Ling Yun with the various crimes. Once that was done, Ling Yun would be doomed, along with his opposition!

Ling Yun’s two mansions, his tens of millions in the bank, the glory of uncovering so many major crimes, and the good graces of Beijing’s Sun Family… everything would belong to Luo Zhong!

Luo Zhong wished for the stars and moon, and eventually, Ling Yun returned just like he wished. However, he would never have expected Ling Yun’s return to be his death date!

It had been less than an hour since Luo Zhong met Ling Yun. However, this short hour had turned into the darkest hour of his entire life!

Ling Yun kept scolding him and cursing at him, but there was nothing he could do to fight for his dignity and pride. All he could do was act indifferent and give an awkward smile as he had to look serious while settling all of Ling Yun’s problems.

The trap Luo Zhong had for Ling Yun, as well as all of the crimes he planned on charging him with, had turned into bitter fruit in the blink of an eye. Moreover, he had to pick these bitter fruits down one after another and swallow them!

In just a short hour, Ling Yun was able to remove the mask of Luo Zhong and turn him into a corrupted director who framed the innocent, distorted the truth, and suppressed others with his authority!

Ling Yun attained a complete victory, but this wasn’t the end!

Ling Yun patted lightly on Luo Zhong’s shoulder. This time, he really didn’t use any energy, but it was enough to scare the hell out of Luo Zhong.

“Come here! Didn’t you say that the source of my wealth is unknown and suspicious? I’ll let you personally witness where my wealth came from!”

Ling Yun smiled faintly at Luo Zhong, but this time, he lowered his head and transmitted the message only to Luo Zhong. Therefore, Luo Zhong was the only one who could hear that.

Ling Yun walked to Tian Botao, who was left in his red underwear, and he stared at him and asked, “Hades Tian, what did you say about your remaining mansion? My memory isn’t very good, and I didn’t hear it properly. Can you repeat it once more in front of everyone…”

Tian Botao witnessed how well Ling Yun handled the Director of the Public Security Bureau, so why would he waste any time on spouting rubbish?

He hurriedly replied, “I said that I’ve already made the decision to gift this remaining mansion to you. This will be compensation to you for tearing down your house. Regardless of what you do to the mansion, I will have nothing to do with it!”

Ling Yun pretended not to hear it and got Tian Botao to repeat it once more with his loudest voice. He wanted to ensure that all the reporters and common folk on the scene could hear what he said. After that, he turned back to Luo Zhong and shrugged his shoulders. “B*stard, did you hear that? He said he is giving me the remaining mansion for me to do anything I want with. Do you think this is appropriate?”

Luo Zhong was barely able to stand straight as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva awkwardly. He nodded as he said, “Of course, of course! He should definitely compensate you… This is very appropriate…”

Ling Yun stared at Luo Zhong like he was a clown and finally nodded and said to him, “Since a b*stard like Luo Zhong says it’s appropriate, I shall accept Hades Tian’s mansion!”

After saying that, Ling Yun still felt unsatisfied as he smiled at Luo Zhong once more. “B*stard, you’re the person of the highest status here, so you have to be my witness…”

Luo Zhong revealed an awkward smile as his heart was suffering. This young man was basically the reincarnation of a devil, and he realized he should never have offended him from the start. This was simply no different from seeking death for himself.

Ling Yun shouted at Tang Meng and got him to find paper and pen. However, he could smell a fragrance near him. When he turned his head to take a look, he saw that Long Wu had already prepared the pen and paper for him.

Long Wu handed the pen and paper to Ling Yun as she said in a sexy manner, “Here!”

Ling Yun was pleased, and he chuckled. “Eh? Just look at my bad memory! I actually forget that there is still a great lawyer like you here. This is great! Why don’t you help me draft this contract? I really don’t want this Tian guy to go back on his words…”

Naturally, Ling Yun wasn’t afraid that Tian Botao wouldn’t admit what he said. What Ling Yun was doing now was solely meant to humiliate Luo Zhong. He wanted to accept Tian Botao’s mansion in front of Luo Zhong. This would feel even better than slapping him in the face!

Long Wu rolled her eyes as she grunted, “Tsk!”

However, she was still very serious when she came up with the contract. At this moment, Ling Yun got Long Wu to hold on for a while as he said to Tian Botao, “Hades Tian, I feel like compensating me with your mansion after destroying my house is the right thing to do. After all, returning what you owe is only right and proper…”

Tian Botao wiped the sweat off his head as he nodded. “That is true, that is true…”

Ling Yun continued, “But I’m telling you that my courtyard is worth so much that all three of your mansions aren’t capable of compensating me for that!”

“Eh…”

“What?”

“This…”

Tian Botao was incomparably shocked. In fact, he looked even more shocked than if he heard that the sun came up from the west. He was completely dumbfounded!

He wasn’t the only one because everyone on the scene, excluding Tang Meng and Dugu Mo, were also shocked!

A mere courtyard spanning over two hundred meters was worth so much? Ling Yun tore down two mansions and obtained the third one, and all of this wasn’t enough?

Liang Fengyi was stunned, Long Wu was stunned, and even Fang Lingfei, who represented all the media reporters, was stunned. Luo Zhong couldn’t believe what he heard. Hundreds of policemen, hundreds of Green Dragon disciples, as well as thousands of common people, couldn’t believe what they heard!

“This… Isn’t Ling Yun going a little overboard?”

“Indeed, even though Hades Tian was in the wrong, Ling Yun actually demolished two of his mansions… Currently, he even gifted him the last one… This should be enough…”

“This kid is really greedy, eh?”

“Ai… This isn’t good…”

When the common folk saw how unforgiving Ling Yun was, they started to think that Ling Yun was going overboard. They started whispering amongst themselves.

After Liang Fengyi’s shock, she turned back to look at Ling Yun. Traces of disappointment flashed across her eyes as she too felt that Ling Yun was going overboard.

Long Wu frowned slightly as she lifted her head to stare at Ling Yun with suspicious eyes. She appeared as though she had never seen anyone like Ling Yun before.

Tian Botao’s expression turned ugly as he replied, “Ling Yun, you…”

Even though he dared not complete the sentence ‘you are going overboard’, his expression made it clear that even he couldn’t agree to such conditions.

Luo Zhong, on the other hand, was actually rather pleased. He thought that Ling Yun got over his own head after cursing at him and now made a mistake by saying that. He wanted to see how Ling Yun could still turn this around!

Beautiful reporter, Fang Lingfei, actually looked slightly furious as she questioned Ling Yun directly, “Ling Yun, I doubt your courtyard is worth as much as one mansion, right? It seems a little ridiculous…”

“You’ve already torn down two of his mansions and obtained the third one as compensation, so how could you say that? Aren’t you extorting him?”

Fang Lingfei was indeed a professional reporter. Everything she said was fired at Ling Yun in quick-fire succession. After asking all of that, she even handed Ling Yun the microphone out of habit.

Ling Yun sized Fang Lingfei up which made Fang Lingfei really uncomfortable. She felt that Ling Yun’s stares were extremely sharp and contained a lecherous air. This made her felt disgusted by Ling Yun, and she couldn’t help but frown and grunt lightly.

Ling Yun smiled casually as he replied, “Yes, if we are to discuss value… My courtyard definitely cannot be compared to the worth of Hades Tian’s three mansions…”

Ling Yun’s voice was amplified by Fang Lingfei’s microphone. When everyone heard that Ling Yun admitted this point, they were curious to hear how Ling Yun was going to continue his explanation.

Ling Yun continued, “However, I want to ask, where is everything from inside my house? Hades Tian and Gou Lianshan, did you guys shift my belongings out before you razed the place? Or did you destroy everything together with the house?”

Tian Botao kept quiet, and Gou Lianshan remained speechless. Who would bother with the items inside their broken house? Moreover, why would anyone bother shifting the items away when they went to destroy the house?

One couldn’t possibly claim that the items in the house and the medicine in the clinic were worth more than the house, right?

Fang Lingfei instantly asked a question on behalf of everyone, “Ling Yun, I understand your intention, but since the house looks so run-down, I doubt the items in the house will cost as much as the total value of the furniture smashed in the two mansions, right?”

Ling Yun glanced coldly at Fang Lingfei as he said, “Can you stop looking down on me?”

Fang Lingfei was a public figure and someone who had been respected wherever she went. When was the last time someone said something like that to her? Even a person of good temper like her could no longer tolerate it as she replied, “Ling Yun, even though everything you did earlier is right, you are simply a person without any decency. Everything you say is a curse to someone else. Did you even go to school?”

Ling Yun was casually admiring how Fang Lingfei got angry as her breasts started trembling in front of him. He couldn’t even be bothered to answer Fang Lingfei’s question as he replied, “How do you know that I have nothing of value inside my house?”

“I’ve hidden over ten very big Night-Luminescent Pearls at home, and my mother told me that those are priceless treasures. They were meant to be for my future wife and for my sister’s marriage. However, everything has been destroyed, so how should I be compensated for this?”
