Chapter 365: Establishing Power in Qingshui (14) To Everyone’s Satisfaction

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Everyone in the demolition office was badly frightened! It wasn’t a pretense as they were truly terrified!

To be honest, regardless of how high ranking these people were, they were all law-abiding people who followed procedures in everything they did. They resorted to making threats and promises as well as coordinating with the other departments to accomplish their demolition tasks.

However, they didn’t follow any proper procedure when they demolished Ling Yun’s house. They demolished someone else’s house in the dark!

At that time, everyone was nervous and panicking because this was no longer the legendary forceful demolition. Instead, they demolished the house without the permission of the owner when the owner wasn’t around. This was considered a stealthy demolition!

Gou Lianshan’s assistant did remind him of this matter before. He did warn him that this was against regulations and that the owner or family of the owner might come knocking on the door, causing a lot of trouble for them.

However, the words of the assistant were treated like a fart!

Qin Qiuyue wasn’t in Qingshui City, and Ling Yun had been missing since Monday. The family was only left with a helpless Ning Lingyu, but what about Gou Lianshan’s side? He could be considered to have a well-trained and powerful army with him. At the very top, he had the strong support of Xie Zhenting and Luo Zhong. Below him, he had capable hooligans. He even had the uncle and nephew combination of Tian Botao, one of which was a deputy director while the other was a captain of the enforcement officers. Why would he, Gou Lianshan, be afraid of anything?

Back when Gou Lianshan said that, he was actually acting really arrogant. He said, “It’s their fortune that they’re not here to stop me from doing this. Whoever dares to try and stop me will be crushed and trampled on by the officers like ants! We don’t even need to get our men to dirty their hands!”

In the end, Gou Lianshan and Tian Botao gave their orders, and in the blink of an eye, Ling Yun’s house was torn down. Initially, the other workers were still fearing that someone from Ling Yun’s family might cause a ruckus. However, two days passed, and everything was still peaceful for them, which was why they really believed that they were fine. Who knew that Ling Yun would appear out of nowhere this morning?

Moreover, he returned in such an aggressive and arrogant manner. He simply barged in with the intent to kill, and he casually managed to toss Gou Lianshan outside.

Gou Lianshan was a man over 80kg, yet Ling Yun was still able to toss him up as though he was carrying a basketball. How strong was Ling Yun?

Firstly, they didn’t abide by the law, and secondly, they knew they were unreasonable. Now that Ling Yun appeared in front of them threatening to kill, how could they not be scared? Everyone was trembling in fear and couldn’t find the words to describe their feelings. They no longer exuded the previously arrogant and mighty aura. In fact, two of the more cowardly men were so frightened they peed their pants!

Two of the more daring men wanted to take out their phones to call for help when they saw Gou Lianshan being thrown outside by Ling Yun. However, Ling Yun’s stare was enough to scare them so badly that their phones dropped on the ground.

Who knew that Ling Yun merely smiled at them and told them, “You want to call for help? Go ahead and call as many you can! However, please go outside or report it to the police. Don’t stay here and obstruct me! Scram, you trash!”

Ling Yun wanted to demolish the entire office!

When everyone hurried out of the office in fear, Ling Yun chuckled and threw all the files on everyone’s tables into the center. With his Fire Talisman, he burnt everything to a crisp!

Following which, he took out his Devil’s Blade and destroyed all the tables and chairs. After that, he aimed his Devil’s Blade at the wall to slice through it!

Ling Yun used slightly more force on his right hand with the blade as he circled the office. In a few seconds, he managed to slice the entire office into top and bottom halves!

“Tsk! Demolishing an office is as easy as slicing tofu! What’s so difficult about this?” Ling Yun smiled as he put away his Devil’s Blade and arrived at the entrance.

Everyone standing outside, with the exception of Dugu Mo, had no idea what Ling Yun was doing in the office. All they knew was that he set a fire and circled around the office. They had no idea what his motive was.

When Ling Yun arrived outside the office, he lifted his head to admire his own masterpiece. He chuckled in his heart before executing Dragon Fish Phantom Ability. His body flashed across the office like lightning, and he extended his palm around the wall as he flew.

Just as everyone was wondering what Ling Yun was doing, Ling Yun’s body came to a halt. Following that, they heard a terrifying ‘Kalala…’ sound!

“God! This…”

“Oh my god! The building is going to collapse!”

“F*ck! It’s going to fall, going to fall…”

“Hurry to leave this place!”

“Kalala…” The sound of the building collapsing was increasingly loud. Eventually, everyone within five hundred meters of Linjiang Road could hear the loud collapse as the entire office building fell to the ground. Smoke and dust sprung up everywhere and filled the air around them. Everyone nearby started coughing because of it!

Tang Meng was dazed at how ferocious his boss was. They hadn’t even reach Tian Botao’s house, and he actually tore down an entire office building!

After Ling Yun chased everyone in the office out, people on Linjiang Road knew that something was going to happen here. They had already hurried over, so when they saw how the office collapsed in front of their eyes, they were completely dumbfounded!

“This… What on earth is happening here?”

“Right? I thought they were the ones demolishing other buildings? Why is their own building being demolished? Hahaha, this is too funny!”

“Tsk! They deserve it for constantly being so cocky! It’s as though all of us owe them money or something! How dare they push the price so low! This is karma!”

“Who is that… Eh, everyone, look! Isn’t that Qiuyue’s son, Ling Yun? Ling Yun is back! Ling Yun is back for revenge!”

“Right, I’ve seen him before! That is really Ling Yun! How did he lose so much weight? Looking at him now, he’s probably only 85kg right?”

“How did he demolish the entire office building all by himself? How… This is way too frightening…”

The elderlies on Linjiang Road started discussing everything that was on their mind. However, over the past three days, they had been suppressed so badly by Gou Lianshan and his men. Now that Gou Lianshan’s office had collapsed and he himself was lying on the road like a dead dog, everyone felt relieved and started cursing at him.

Because of the huge commotion, almost everyone staying on Linjiang Road came out to take a look. After Li Hongmei sent Ling Yun off, she felt extremely uneasy in her heart. She constantly felt that something didn’t feel right, so when she heard the commotion, she was naturally the fastest one out of her house!

“Oh my god… This…” Li Hongmei couldn’t believe her own eyes. Ling Yun was still telling her that there would be a good show to watch. She realized that the show Ling Yun referred to was him demolishing this building!

When Ling Yun saw that his actions gathered over two to three hundred spectators, he simply swept the dust off his body and smiled at everyone before saying, “Fellow elders and folks, these guys sneaked into my place last Thursday to demolish it when I wasn’t around! I came back to seek revenge, so I hope everyone here will be my witness!”

The crowd erupted into applause and cheers.

“Alright, no problem! We haven’t been able to stand them for some time now! Great job!”

“Good job, Ling Yun! These scumbags could die, and nobody would care about them!”

“Right! They’re only paying me six hundred dollars per square meter of my four hundred square meters property. I can’t even pay for the downpayment with that amount elsewhere!”

Everyone started complimenting Ling Yun’s actions and blowing off steam.

Ling Yun extended both arms in the air to calm everyone down before turning to Gou Liancheng and his subordinates and saying, “Today, I represent the elders and friends in Linjiang Road to tell you guys something. Everyone here better listen carefully to what I have to say so that you can relay it back to your boss, Gou Liancheng. If you wish to touch any of our houses, you better fork out a price that everyone is satisfied with. Otherwise, you can forget about demolishing another house in this place!”

Ling Yun’s words were simply too beautiful, and everyone couldn’t help but cheer and clap in support of Ling Yun.

Gou Lianshan’s subordinates were all frightened pale, and they nodded vigorously. They simply couldn’t wait to get out of this place or hide in some corner.

“Also, regarding how you demolished my house without my permission… I will definitely find someone to reason it out with so that I can get the justice that I deserve! This matter isn’t over!”

After Ling Yun said that, he turned to look at Dugu Mo and Tang Meng. He lifted Gou Lianshan up single-handedly, and all of them entered the Hummer.

“Elders and folks, I believe you have been bullied by Hades Tian over the last few years, right? He and Gou Lianshan brought men to destroy my home, so I am going to destroy his villa now. Do you want to tag along to watch me do that?”

The crowd was already excited and emotional from the start, so when they heard Ling Yun wanted to find trouble with Tian Botao, how could they not tag along?

“Ling Yun, I’ll bring you there…”

“Let’s go!”

“Hehe, this Tian Botao is a really forgetful man. He has been taught a lesson by Ling Yun recently, and just a few days later, he actually dared to bring men to destroy Ling Yun’s house. Wasn’t he asking for death?”

“Ai! He really deserves it! Tian Botao has been eating for free at my shop, and I’m sure he has eaten over twenty thousand dollars worth of food. He didn’t pay a single time!”

“Go, let’s tag along to watch…”

Ling Yun ordered Tang Meng to drive his Hummer slowly so that the elderlies behind could catch up. Over a hundred of them walked to the end of the road, turned a corner, and walked towards Linjiang Garden in a majestic manner.

Ling Yun sat in the car as he lowered his head to look at the pale-faced and shivering Gou Lianshan. “Say, who instructed you to do everything? As long as you say, I can relieve you of your pain…”

“No… No one…” Gou Lianshan clenched his teeth as he struggled to speak.

When Ling Yun saw how pathetic he looked, he simply gave him a thumbs up and complimented him, saying, “Great! You have a courageous spirit. I do want to see how long you can endure this!”

All Ling Yun had was time, so Ling Yun wasn’t anxious or worried. Very soon, they arrived at the entrance of Linjiang Garden. Ling Yun ordered Dugu Mo to watch after Gou Lianshan in the car. Following which, he got Tang Meng to stop the car so that he could get out.

“F*ck! What is this? Is he crazy?”

When the bodyguards guarding the entrance of Linjiang Garden saw this, they were so frightened they didn’t know what to say.

Ling Yun smiled at the three bodyguards before asking with a smile, “Excuse me, can I ask how to get to Director Tian’s house?”
