Chapter 825: Give a Discount
Chapter 825: Give a Discount
Evil Dragon was startled and his eyes widened, "Who?"
"You have already heard!" Feng Ling said lightly.
"Feng Wanli, is it the Black Dragon Sect’s Feng Wanli?" Evil Dragon asked with a trembling voice.
Feng Ling gave him a sideways look, "Who else?"
In Mianluo Country, Feng Wanli’s name still carried considerable weight. The news of his incident was tightly sealed, and only a few people within the Black Dragon Sect knew about it, so his influence lingered.
Evil Dragon looked at Feng Ling in surprise, "Then, you are the Saintess of the Black Dragon Sect?"
"That’s right!" Feng Ling nodded.
She had just finished speaking when the iron gate at the doorway suddenly emitted a sound of metal twisting!
Following that, the sturdy gate was forcibly broken open!
Two figures in black flashed by and instantly appeared behind Feng Ling, "Miss, are you alright?"
"I’m fine." Feng Ling said calmly.
"Evil Dragon and your Black Dragon Sect have always kept to our own waters. Why are you treating me this way?" As soon as Evil Dragon saw those two in black, he knew that people from the Black Dragon Sect had really come!
Their signature attire said it all.
However, he still felt somewhat unreconciled and hurriedly asked.
"You still don’t know where you have erred?"
Feng Ling sneered and pointed at the brawny man in black, Ah Guang, "Otherwise, why don’t you ask him?"
"Boss, that woman really does owe us a hundred and fifty thousand!"
Ah Guang, seeing the situation change, didn’t want to become the scapegoat and quickly defended himself.
Evil Dragon understood what was happening, squinted his eyes without paying him any heed, and turned to look at Feng Ling, "Just because of a strange woman, you want me to die without a burial place?"
"Don’t make it sound so grave. You have accumulated quite a fortune over these years. Four hundred million is hardly bone-breaking for you," Feng Ling scoffed.
Yet, Evil Dragon shook his head, "You are wrong. Every year, I have to hand over half of my income to Buddha Master, and after deducting the expenses for my brothers, my assets are only that much!"
Ling Feng was startled and turned to look at Feng Ling, "Who is Buddha Master?"
"We’ll talk about that later."
Feng Ling didn’t answer him but looked at Evil Dragon with a laugh, "Are you crying poor now? Is that supposed to be fun?"
"..."
Evil Dragon fell silent, lowered his head to think for a moment, then looked up and said to Feng Ling, "The cash from my several casinos totals over a hundred million, plus there are a few tens of million worth of gold bars in the safe. Altogether, that should make up two billion. The rest..."
Before he could finish, Ling Feng quickly interrupted, "No need, I don’t want the rest. You just need to deal with this Ah Guang for me!"
"Hmm?"
Evil Dragon was taken aback, "Why?"
"Because this guy isn’t human!"
Ling Feng sneered coldly.
Ever since the young man said that as long as it wasn’t his own life, others’ lives weren’t worth anything, Ling Feng had already developed a strong desire to kill him!
Four hundred million was indeed tempting, but Ling Feng was not greedy for wealth. It was better to accept a good situation and give Evil Dragon a chance to breathe than to force him into a desperate situation!
Ling Feng felt that being new here, even though he had the support of the Black Dragon Sect, he didn’t want to stir up the stagnant waters of Guo City all at once, especially since his most important task was the mission!
After brief consideration, Evil Dragon snapped his fingers, "Take Ah Guang away!"
"Yes!"
Four burly men rushed forward and swiftly pinned down Ah Guang!
When Ah Guang heard Ling Feng speak just now, he didn’t take it seriously, convinced that his boss wouldn’t betray him since he had faithfully followed him.
But now, looking at the situation, he realized he had overestimated his worth in his boss’s eyes.
So Ah Guang quickly began to cry and beg for mercy, "Boss, don’t kill me, spare me!"
Evil Dragon knew that betraying his own man to save two billion was not a good look, so in front of his men, he stood up and harshly slapped Ah Guang, "It’s not because of what Mr. Ling said that I’m killing you, but because you’ve done something wrong!"
"Ah? What did I do wrong?"
Ah Guang, dazed from the slap, asked with his face covered in confusion.
"Your mistake was that you shouldn’t bully the weak, you shouldn’t have tried to kill all the guests when the gate was dropped. I, Evil Dragon, might be involved in the underworld, but I won’t kill the innocent indiscriminately; I always talk sense!"
"Well said!"
Evil Dragon spoke with righteous indignation, and some of the gamblers started clapping and cheering upon hearing this.
Ling Feng watched with an expressionless face, but he sneered inwardly.
Indeed, in front of money, brotherly affection really isn’t worth mentioning!
Ah Guang’s face turned ashen, realizing he had been thoroughly betrayed, and acknowledging the slim chance of survival, he hung his head and said, "Boss, I know I’m wrong, I’ll accept whatever punishment you give me!"
"Good, rest assured, I’ll take good care of your family!"
Evil Dragon nodded and signaled his men with his eyes, and the four of them immediately dragged Ah Guang to the back!
A moment later, a scream was heard.
Evil Dragon looked back at Ling Feng, "Later on, the two billion in cash and gold bars will be delivered to Black Dragon Sect’s hotel!"
"No problem, I trust you won’t go back on your word," Ling Feng said indifferently.
Just then, a person with a box still oozing blood came forward to them.
Ling Feng glanced at it and could see, despite the bloodstains, that it was Ah Guang’s head inside, and he nodded in satisfaction.
Evil Dragon looked at Feng Ling, "Is Mr. Ling, Miss Feng’s boyfriend?"
Feng Ling’s face turned red, she was about to deny it, but then she quickly nodded after a moment of thought, "That’s right!"
"Good, very good!"
Evil Dragon nodded and, without another glance at Ling Feng, turned to address the gamblers in the casino, "My apologies, but I ask everyone to cash in their chips now; the casino is closed for business today!"
All the liquid assets were being sent away, so naturally, the casino couldn’t operate.
The gamblers, though they weren’t finished playing and some had become desperate from their losses, didn’t dare to utter a word of protest, and resigned themselves to their bad luck!
The casino was bustling with noise as Feng Ling and Ling Feng left the place together.
It was now midnight, and there was hardly anyone on the streets, with just a few tourists rushing by, much quieter than before.
Walking down the street, members of the Black Dragon Sect followed at a distance, keeping an alert eye around to prevent any ambush.
But Ling Feng was not at all nervous, holding Feng Ling’s hand as he walked and asked, "What you said just now, were you serious?"
"What?"
Feng Ling turned her head to look at him, asking with confusion.
"When Evil Dragon asked if I was your boyfriend, you readily admitted it!" Ling Feng said.
Feng Ling: "..."
After flushing red, she immediately explained, "That was because I didn’t want to expose your identity, afraid he would come after Ling Corporation later on!"
"Oh, I see!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng let out a small sigh.
At this, Feng Ling became nervous and hurriedly said, "You, don’t get me wrong, actually, actually..."
