Dragon Emperor, Martial God Chapter 380

“What? Night-Luminescent Pearls? This…”

“Qin Qiuyue had Night-Luminescent Pearls in her home? And she had ten of them? How could this be possible…”

“That's right, since Qin Qiuyue had so many Night-Luminescent Pearls at home, even if she took just one out to sell, wouldn't she be able to get anything she wanted? Why would she choose to suffer like this?”

“Sigh, speaking of which, Ling Yun is getting out of hand lately. In order to take Hades Tian's money, he even said something so ridiculous…”

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? That's going too far…

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, “Ling Yun, just by saying that, anyone would know you're 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!”

Ling Yun shook his head solemnly as he said, “That's your word against mine. Since young, mother has always taught me to be an honest man. I don't lie. I only had dozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls at home, not a thousand…”

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 person's wealth. Fang Lingfei felt very disappointed and upset, she was really upset!

But at this moment, Ling Yun reminded her gently, “Don't be so hard on your body, what would we do if you sprained your leg?”

Infuriated by Ling Yun, she grumbled, “Ling 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, we'll believe you!”

Ling Yun laughed dryly as he replied, “Oh? If I can prove it, then you'll apologize to me? Why don't you prepare yourself to marry me instead and become my wife?”

“You!” 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 Yun's actions, which made Fang Lingfei curious about him and made her have great expectations about his personality.

Once they arrived, all of Fang Lingfei's 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 wouldn't 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 club…

The onlookers nearby didn't believe that Ling Yun could prove his words either. One after the other, they said, “That's right, Ling Yun, if you can prove that you had Night-Luminescent Pearls at home, we'll believe you. If you can't, then you'd better give up. You've demolished two of Hades Tian's mansions already. Even if he gave you a mansion, it's still a worthy trade!”

Ling Yun smiled in a carefree manner as he bowed to the citizens nearby while clasping his fists. “To my dearest neighbors, since we've gotten this far, then I'd better prove to everyone that I'm not trying to extort Hades Tian, take a good look here…”

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, “If it weren't 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!”

“All 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?”

At this time, all of the onlookers' attention was completely captured by the Night-Luminescent Pearls that were in Ling Yun's hands. They were so shocked that they couldn't say a single word. Who would even be able to refute Ling Yun's question?

“This… This is really the Night-Luminescent Pearl… How could it be so large?”

“Dear god… To think that Qiuyue has been lying low all these years, she had such treasures lying around at home…”

“I was wondering why Ling Yun's family suddenly bought two large mansions out of nowhere, so it's because they had Night-Luminescent Pearls at home…”

“That's right, it's 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!”

“It's 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 wouldn't be enough to compensate for that…”

Once he showed two Night-Luminescent Pearls, everyone immediately believed Ling Yun's 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 Yun's hands!

“It… It's beautiful… This is really the Night-Luminescent Pearl…” 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 Yun's side and opened their mouths wide, their gazes fixed on his hands.

Which woman didn't 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 Lingfei's 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.

“Hot… Hot stuff?” Seeing that Fang Lingfei had completely lost her wits, he called out for her twice before she came to her senses.

“Ah? Where are the Night-Luminescent Pearls? Where did they go?” Fang Lingfei looked up, completely entranced as she asked.

Ling Yun laughed as he said, “I've 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?”

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 Lianshan's faces turned green, while Luo Zhong was shocked out of his wits!

God, saying that Ling Yun's 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 Yun's bank accounts. Wasn't he just digging his own grave?

Ling Yun was no longer concerned about Fang Lingfei, who couldn't completely return to her senses. Turning to look at Tian Botao, who was frozen to his spot, he said darkly, “Dozens of Night-Luminescent Pearls like these were all destroyed by garbage like you. Why don't you tell me if these three mansions of yours are enough to pay me back!”

“What if my mother returns and falls sick after finding out? What if I can't find a wife in the future? What about my sister's dowry?”

“Ling Yun is right! Definitely! Make him pay!” The onlookers nearby, seeing that Ling Yun had really produced the Night-Luminescent Pearls before them and only having “the remaining two”, instantly shifted to Ling Yun's side. All of them cheered for Tian Botao's demise!

“This… I…” Tian Botao fell to the ground in a mess. His face turned a sickly yellow, his body shook uncontrollably, and his lips quivered. He couldn't 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, “Give me my Night-Luminescent Pearls back!”

“What?” 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 wouldn't let this opportunity go. Hence, he crouched down as he smirked and asked Tian Botao, “Tell me, how do you intend to pay me back?”

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!

“I'll pay… I'll do what I can to pay…” 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, “Gou Lianshan, don't think you'll get away scot-free!”

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.

“Brother Yun, this is…”

Ling Yun took the agreement slip from Tang Meng's hands. Without taking a second look, he put it away. Ling Yun saw the entire process of them setting up the agreement. Tang Meng didn't leave even a single cent for Tian Botao.

“Alright, now it's finally time to give the loser what he deserves!” 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, “All 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!”

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!
