Chapter 1246: Chapter 711: They Are Not Convinced
Ling Yu, although in pain, had never expected this scene to unfold.
His face was full of shock as he continued to stare foolishly at everything before him.
So, was this intentional?
Had he been deliberately hiding his abilities?
And showing weakness on purpose?
Tsk, he truly was cunning.
It was all because he had let his guard down too much.
If he hadnât let his guard down, none of this would have happened.
But even if he hadnât, he was already exhausted.
Besides, he was just about to knock the other party out.
So even if he was vigilant, there was nothing he could do.
Thinking of this, Ling Yuâs expression was complicated, but he said nothing.
Baldy was the first to object, reacting strongly.
"Dream on, kid. Thereâs no way heâll acknowledge you as big brother. If he does, whatâs to become of us brothers then?"
"Itâs awkward for us too. After all, we are his brothers, yet he acknowledges you as big brotherâwhere does that leave us?"
"Have you even considered us? He is not a lone individual; heâs part of our team, so we share the honors and the burdens!"
The others didnât discuss these words.
How could they dare?
It was better not to complicate matters further.
Whatever they thought, they kept to themselves.
If it really came down to it, theyâd just have to leave; no need to stay here and watch the drama.
Just then, Qin Yuan hooked up the corner of his lips and slowly said,
"This matter between me and Ling Yu has nothing to do with you, so donât lump yourselves together with us."
"Besides, Iâm asking Ling Yu to be my follower, not any of you. Why such a big reaction?"
"If you really oppose him being my follower, then let him continue fighting me. Defeat me, and he wonât have to be my follower anymore."
Qin Yuanâs tone was entirely provocative.
He looked down at Ling Yu from on high.
Such was the demeanor of a king.
It was because he had won, which made him so imposing.
Hearing this, Baldyâs face turned strange, his reaction even stronger.
"Cut out the taunting, I will never agree to him acknowledging you as big brother."
"If he is to have a big brother, that would be us, not youâgot that?"
"Besides, he hasnât conceded defeat yet; he can still stand up, so youâre being premature with your conclusions!"
After saying this, Baldy immediately looked at Ling Yu.
He raised his eyebrows, a gesture that spoke louder than words.
It was a clear signal for Ling Yu to stand up immediately.
Ling Yu, of course, saw the look.
He struggled to get up.
But the pain was too unbearable, so he didnât stand.
After a while, Black Bear quickly said,
"Ling Yu, donât just lie there; get up quickly. Are you out of strength? If you are..."
"We can help you stand, you just need to keep fighting this kid. We wonât just stand by..."
"and watch you call this kid big brother. After all, we are your big brothers. If you acknowledge him, where do we stand?"
Mountain Brother also nodded, "Exactly, as long as weâre here to watch over, we wonât let him take advantage of you!"
This kid just wants an advantage, huh?
He even wants to be Ling Yuâs big brother?
What was he thinking?
His skin couldnât possibly be any thicker.
They wouldnât allow it.
Besides, they had really thought Ling Yu would KO this kid outright.
They hadnât expected Ling Yu to be KOâd by this kid instead.
It was completely beyond their expectations.
And shocking too.
But now that it had happened, they couldnât possibly admit it.
How could they? If they admitted it, they would lose all their dignity.
At this moment, there was not a hint of anger on Qin Yuanâs face; his tone remained calm.
"It seems you really wonât let him acknowledge me as big brother. Havenât I already said this is a matter between him and me?"
"Since itâs between us, we should handle it. You guys shouldnât get involved."
"If you really do want to get involved, then how about this? There are three of you, right?"
Qin Yuan didnât continue.
But his words had already piqued their curiosity.
Their faces were all filled with curiosity.
Baldy was somewhat impulsive, immediately saying,
"What is it? Just say it. Why are you acting like a mute, saying only half the story?"
The most annoying thing was mutes like that.
If youâre capable, say it all. What does saying half even mean?
This kid couldnât possibly be messing with them on purpose.
If that was the case, they wouldnât let him off easily.
Qin Yuan, unoffended, then slowly continued,
"Well, you three should each take a turn fighting me. If you all beat me, I will become your follower, but if I win against all of you."
"Then you will have to become my followers. Can you accept that? If you can, then youâd better start acting quickly."
"If you canât accept it, then Ling Yu must call me big brother."
Qin Yuan spoke earnestly, not feeling there was anything inappropriate in his wordsâhow could there be? It was perfectly reasonable.
