âWhat? Night-Luminescent Pearls? ThisâŠâ
âQin Qiuyue had Night-Luminescent Pearls in her home? And she had ten of them? How could this be possibleâŠâ
âThatâs right, since Qin Qiuyue had so many Night-Luminescent Pearls at home, even if she took just one out to sell, wouldnât she be able to get anything she wanted? Why would she choose to suffer like this?â
âSigh, speaking of which, Ling Yun is getting out of hand lately. In order to take Hades Tianâs money, he even said something so ridiculousâŠâ
With a word from Ling Yun, a commotion even larger than the quaking ground before was caused. Everyone thought that Ling Yun was overstepping his bounds and asking for too much. Thinking that he had the upper-hand, he must have thought that he could get a lump-sum out of it!
Behind him, Long Kun heard the same words as the others, but he simply nodded thoughtfully, as though it was something completely understandable.
On the other hand, Tang Meng frowned deeply, thinking to himself,
Brother Yun, you were way too vicious this time. You even came up with such a ridiculous story about her having dozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls? Thatâs going too farâŠ
Liang Fengyi, hearing Ling Yun say that he had dozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls stored at home for marrying his bride in future, unwittingly began to blush violently and quietly let out a disgruntled noise.
Fang Lingfei heard the conversations of the people nearby very clearly. Confused, she said in a disbelieving tone, âLing Yun, just by saying that, anyone would know youâre clearly just trying to exploit them. Since your own house is already in ruins and is nothing but flat ground now, even if you said that there were thousands of Night-Luminescent Pearls in there, nobody would be able to refute that!â
Ling Yun shook his head solemnly as he said, âThatâs your word against mine. Since young, mother has always taught me to be an honest man. I donât lie. I only had dozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls at home, not a thousandâŠâ
With his response, Fang Lingfei was left speechless. Angrily, she stomped her feet with as much force as she could. Not knowing why she suddenly felt a wave of anger overcome her, Ling Yun still refused to back down from his position. She once thought that he was a hero that was unafraid of facing all sorts of evil that threatened to pressure him, but it turned out that he was only a ruffian that extorted another personâs wealth. Fang Lingfei felt very disappointed and upset, she was really upset!
But at this moment, Ling Yun reminded her gently, âDonât be so hard on your body, what would we do if you sprained your leg?â
Infuriated by Ling Yun, she grumbled, âLing Yun, you said that you had dozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls at home. What proof do you have? As long as you can prove it, weâll believe you!â
Ling Yun laughed dryly as he replied, âOh? If I can prove it, then youâll apologize to me? Why donât you prepare yourself to marry me instead and become my wife?â
âYou!â Fang Lingfei was so angered by Ling Yun that her entire face turned bright red. Suddenly, she turned her disappointed and angry gaze towards Liang Fengyi, who was nearby, and she let out a disgruntled squeal at her.
Only Liang Fengyi could understand the meaning of that gaze, as when she was on the way here, Liang Fengyi had already told Fang Lingfei about Ling Yunâs actions, which made Fang Lingfei curious about him and made her have great expectations about his personality.
Once they arrived, all of Fang Lingfeiâs expectations about Ling Yun were met and completely overcome. Along the way, she even quietly gave Liang Fengyi a thumbs up. Right now, she was filled with nothing but disappointment and loathing.
So what if he was handsome? It wouldnât bring food to the table. Fang Lingfei worked at the TV station; she saw so many handsome actors every single day!
Just counting the handsome men that chased after Fang Lingfei every day, they could already form their own fan clubâŠ
The onlookers nearby didnât believe that Ling Yun could prove his words either. One after the other, they said, âThatâs right, Ling Yun, if you can prove that you had Night-Luminescent Pearls at home, weâll believe you. If you canât, then youâd better give up. Youâve demolished two of Hades Tianâs mansions already. Even if he gave you a mansion, itâs still a worthy trade!â
Ling Yun smiled in a carefree manner as he bowed to the citizens nearby while clasping his fists. âTo my dearest neighbors, since weâve gotten this far, then Iâd better prove to everyone that Iâm not trying to extort Hades Tian, take a good look hereâŠâ
Finishing his words, Ling Yun pretended to search his body as he revealed what was in his hands. Out of nowhere, there were two Night-Luminescent Pearls in his hands!
The surfaces were pure white and crystal-clear. The pristine and sparkling Night-Luminescent Pearls, under the bright noon sun, shone brilliantly and immediately drew the attention of everyone in the area!
Ling Yun said coldly, âIf it werenât because I thought it would be fun to sneakily take out two of these Night-Luminescent Pearls from my own home, they would have been completely destroyed by Hades Tian and his garbage subordinates!â
âAll of you here are my judges. Tell me if this is really the Night-Luminescent Pearl or just some worthless marble? Am I really just trying to extort Hades Tian and Gou Lianshan?â
At this time, all of the onlookersâ attention was completely captured by the Night-Luminescent Pearls that were in Ling Yunâs hands. They were so shocked that they couldnât say a single word. Who would even be able to refute Ling Yunâs question?
âThis⊠This is really the Night-Luminescent Pearl⊠How could it be so large?â
âDear god⊠To think that Qiuyue has been lying low all these years, she had such treasures lying around at homeâŠâ
âI was wondering why Ling Yunâs family suddenly bought two large mansions out of nowhere, so itâs because they had Night-Luminescent Pearls at homeâŠâ
âThatâs right, itâs no wonder Ling Yun was so angry when his run-down house was demolished. It was because such amazing treasures all turned into dust. If I were in his position, I would have fought him to the death!â
âItâs a pity that only two are left, Hades Tian really went too far. Not to mention three mansions, even if you were to sell him away, it wouldnât be enough to compensate for thatâŠâ
Once he showed two Night-Luminescent Pearls, everyone immediately believed Ling Yunâs words. All of their faces were a mix of shock, greed, surprise, and regret. Pushing one another to get a better look, the circle shrunk considerably in size. All of them were fighting to take a look at the Night-Luminescent Pearls in Ling Yunâs hands!
âIt⊠Itâs beautiful⊠This is really the Night-Luminescent PearlâŠâ Ling Yun raised the Night-Luminescent Pearls in front of Fang Lingfei. She had the best view of it and was left completely stunned in its presence as she mumbled something unintelligible.
Liang Fengyi and Long Wu saw that Ling Yun took out two Night-Luminescent Pearls without hesitation. They were completely stunned as they rushed to Ling Yunâs side and opened their mouths wide, their gazes fixed on his hands.
Which woman didnât love gems? Furthermore, it was the coveted Night-Luminescent Pearl that one might not even be able to see in their entire lifetime!
Hovering the two Night-Luminescent Pearls in front of Fang Lingfeiâs eyes, her eyeballs rolled about as she traced their movement. Then, with lightning-fast movement, Ling Yun crossed his arms and returned the Night-Luminescent Pearls into his storage ring.
âHot⊠Hot stuff?â Seeing that Fang Lingfei had completely lost her wits, he called out for her twice before she came to her senses.
âAh? Where are the Night-Luminescent Pearls? Where did they go?â Fang Lingfei looked up, completely entranced as she asked.
Ling Yun laughed as he said, âIâve put them away. Now, do you finally believe what I said? The Night-Luminescent Pearls that were in my hands, are they not a priceless asset? Am I really just trying to extort Hades Tian and Gou Lianshan?â
Ling Yun repeated what he asked earlier as if to ask Fang Lingfei once again, but his intent was for all of the onlookers to hear it.
Tian Botao and Gou Lianshanâs faces turned green, while Luo Zhong was shocked out of his wits!
God, saying that Ling Yunâs wealth came from nowhere? Not to mention the way Ling Yun raked in money, just with the two Night-Luminescent Pearls that were in his hands, even if he wanted two more mansions, it would be no problem at all!
He ridiculed himself for using this reason to seal Ling Yunâs bank accounts. Wasnât he just digging his own grave?
Ling Yun was no longer concerned about Fang Lingfei, who couldnât completely return to her senses. Turning to look at Tian Botao, who was frozen to his spot, he said darkly, âDozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls like these were all destroyed by garbage like you. Why donât you tell me if these three mansions of yours are enough to pay me back!â
âWhat if my mother returns and falls sick after finding out? What if I canât find a wife in the future? What about my sisterâs dowry?â
âLing Yun is right! Definitely! Make him pay!â The onlookers nearby, seeing that Ling Yun had really produced the Night-Luminescent Pearls before them and only having âthe remaining twoâ, instantly shifted to Ling Yunâs side. All of them cheered for Tian Botaoâs demise!
âThis⊠IâŠâ Tian Botao fell to the ground in a mess. His face turned a sickly yellow, his body shook uncontrollably, and his lips quivered. He couldnât even finish a sentence.
Out of everyone, who was the angriest? Of course it was Long Wu!
After Long Wu came to her senses after her shock of seeing the Night-Luminescent Pearls, knowing that the dozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls that originally belonged to her were all crushed to dust and only two were left, how could she not be angry?
Long Wu thrust a vicious kick at Tian Botao as she said angrily, âGive me my Night-Luminescent Pearls back!â
âWhat?â Hearing this, Ling Yun was stunned as he thought to himself,
These are my Night-Luminescent Pearls, since when did they become yours?
But this was the time to give him a vicious beating. Obviously, Ling Yun wouldnât let this opportunity go. Hence, he crouched down as he smirked and asked Tian Botao, âTell me, how do you intend to pay me back?â
When Ling Yun took out the two Night-Luminescent Pearls, Tian Botao knew that it was over for him. He had no hope. All these years he spent oppressing the people, using all possible means to extort money, all of it would be gone!
He would definitely lose his position and his money; in a single instant, he would be left with nothing at all!
âIâll pay⊠Iâll do what I can to payâŠâ Sitting on the floor, Tian Botao felt like all of the energy had drained from his body. Losing his wits, he repeated those words soullessly.
Laughing coldly as he stood up, he glanced at Gou Lianshan, who had a dark expression on his face, and said, âGou Lianshan, donât think youâll get away scot-free!â
Finishing his words, Ling Yun turned to call for Tang Meng. He told him to go settle the remaining matters together with Long Wu. Ling Yun knew that for such matters, Tang Meng would be able to handle it better than him!
After fifteen minutes or so, Tang Meng brought the agreement written by Tian Botao to Ling Yun.
âBrother Yun, this isâŠâ
Ling Yun took the agreement slip from Tang Mengâs hands. Without taking a second look, he put it away. Ling Yun saw the entire process of them setting up the agreement. Tang Meng didnât leave even a single cent for Tian Botao.
âAlright, now itâs finally time to give the loser what he deserves!â Ling Yun smiled lightly at Tang Meng as he blinked at him.
Tang Meng had impeccable chemistry with Ling Yun. Turning to Tian Botao, who was sitting on the ground, he took his phone out.
Pulling up the footage of Tian Botao fooling around with nine women, he raised it up to all of the reporters at the scene and shouted loudly, âAll of you, take a good look at this. This is footage that we got this morning, this is what Hades Tian was up to all morning!â
As Tang Meng pulled his phone out, Tian Botao, who was lying on the ground, was so scared this his entire body trembled in fear. Following that, he rolled his eyes as he fell backwards. Instantly, he passed out!
