Dragon Emperor, Martial God

Chapter 653: The Two-Faced Ling Yun

Zhao Pengfei’s face turned ghastly white, and sweat fell continuously down his dark, swollen face!

Even if everything wasn’t the truth, the fact that these four youths were good fighters were real. Despite fighting twenty men with only three people, they got out completely unscathed and terrorized all of his people. There was also someone who was so strong that he didn’t even have to make a move. Even though they were such terrifying people, he had never heard of them. Where exactly did they come from?

With one look at their movements and charisma, anyone would have known that these four people weren’t from Green Dragon. They definitely weren’t normal either. Even though they dressed casually, every piece of clothing was branded!

Furthermore, Ling Yun had treated Xu Bingyan and Yanzi’s injuries in an instant. It seemed like they had never been hurt. Was this really something a regular person could do?

Zhao Pengfei glared so hard that his eyes widened, then turned to look at Xu Bingyan. He wondered when she met such amazing people. In the past, he bullied her several times. Other than a big fatso who didn’t know better and attempted to defend her, there wasn’t a single person who ever lent her a hand!

However, Xu Bingyan didn’t even spare Zhao Pengfei a glance. Until the very end, her eyes remained fixed on Ling Yun. Biting her lower lip lightly, she felt conflicted. She couldn’t understand Ling Yun at all.

Xu Bingyan still remembered things clearly. At the start of the year, Zhao Pengfei brought men over to make trouble. They stirred up a mess in the Speedy Internet Cafe. At the time, Ling Yun was beaten to a pulp. At the time, Ling Yun could only use his arms to block his face, curling up into a ball and taking a huge beating. However, he didn’t even lift a finger today. He only said a few words to resolve her biggest problem!

This was a huge contrast to the past him!

Xu Bingyan remembered the night it happened. Ling Yun couldn’t go back to school because he was beaten up so badly that he didn’t even look human. At the same time, he refused to go to the hospital. Xu Bingyan could only take Ling Yun home, putting hot compresses on him. He was still a fatso then, and his huge lumps of flesh were black and bruised. Anyone would be horrified by those injuries, and even looking at them made her heart jump. She really pitied him…

“I’m going to die soon… I’ll die soon…”

On that night, amidst his pain, Ling Yun said things like that continuously. At first, Xu Bingyan thought that he was muttering nonsense because he was beaten up so badly that he was losing consciousness. Afterwards, she found out that he was sleep talking.

From that, Xu Bingyan understood one thing—Ling Yun was very lonely.

That night, Ling Yun slept in her bed. She slept in her pajamas by his side, cuddling Ling Yun in her arms like an older sister. She took care of him like a godmother. Wiping off his sweat and covering him up with a blanket, she comforted him quietly. For some reason, her heart throbbed with pain.

Of course, Ling Yun didn’t know that. Perhaps the past Ling Yun knew about it, but the current Ling Yun definitely didn’t know.

After that happened, Xu Bingyan’s care and concern for Ling Yun was akin to an older sister or a mother. When their gazes met, there was also something unspoken within them. However, it was never broken.

The current Ling Yun had lost weight and become handsome. He was so strong that it was simply unbelievable. His excellence was shocking, while his charisma was overwhelming. His presence commanded the skies. However, with the new him, that old Ling Yun was gone.

Looking into Ling Yun’s eyes, there wasn’t that unspoken thing anymore. When his clinic opened, she went to visit as he greeted her cheerily.

When something happened, he came and resolved the problem easily. With nothing more than a few words, he offered her nothing but his gentle concern. However, inside Ling Yun’s eyes, the passionate young man was gone. There was only a look that conveyed calm peace that flowed like water. When he looked at her, it seemed like he was looking at a stranger.

Xu Bingyan even believed that if she hadn’t used his pay as an excuse to look for him, Ling Yun would have completely forgotten about her. It was as if everything that had happened between them was nothing more than a reflection on the water. It passed like a dream, as if it never happened.

Thinking about it like this, Xu Bingyan’s eyes began to turn blurry. It felt like she was drunk, and her heart pounded wildly. Her ears rang loudly. Everything Abing said and did to Zhao Pengfei passed by her like air. She saw none of it. She only snapped back to her senses when an ear-piercing car-braking sound was heard.

Sixth Bro Hu had brought his men there in four luxury cars. In an instant, more than twenty angry, wolf-like men appeared with strong killing intent.

“Who is it? Who’s the one that dares to fight one of my brothers? Are you tired of living?”

Sixth Bro Hu’s tiny figure appeared from the car. He naturally carried a vicious aura about him, and his charisma was piercing as he grunted continuously. Leading the pack from the front, he walked toward the crowd decisively.

Once the spectators saw a real member of Green Dragon appear, they moved aside immediately, clearing a path for him to walk through. They opened a huge path. This was Green Dragon’s charisma!

“Erm…”

However, once Sixth Bro Hu walked into the crowd, he spotted Tie Xiaohu immediately. He was standing like a steel tower by the entrance of the internet cafe. Seeing that, he was absolutely stunned.

“Boss?” Sixth Bro Hu’s eyes rolled wildly as he blurted out loudly!

Some of his disciples, who followed behind him, also recognized Tie Xiaohu as Green Dragon’s Boss. In an instant, they lowered the metal bats in their hands as they stood there, shocked.

After a series of shocks, Sixth Bro Hu pulled himself upright without hesitation. Then, he bowed three times respectfully to Tie Xiaohu. He said agitatedly, “Boss, so you’ve come here personally? Who dares to find trouble with Green Dragon? I’ll bring more men over right away!”

Sixth Bro Hu thought that anything that warranted the Green Dragon Boss’s presence must be a conflict between gangs. To be the first one here to help, it was definitely his luck. If that was the case, he would be able to live a better life.

“Sixth… Sixth Bro… it… it’s me…”

Zhao Pengfei saw that Sixth Bro Hu had finally arrived, and with lots of men too. At first, he was absolutely elated. However, as the scene before him unfolded, his excitement, which had risen to his throat, shot straight back down. It felt like a rock had tumbled down from thousands of meters in the air, leaving him thoroughly shocked!

Boss? Sixth Bro was calling him boss? But Green Dragon only had one boss! This was something Zhao Pengfei knew for a fact. His face wasn’t black anymore, it had turned green!

He was so scared that he turned green!

Sixth Bro Hu finally noticed Zhao Pengfei on the ground. He turned to look at him, then he stared at Tie Xiaohu again. His heart jumped. It was over. Was Zhao Pengfei beaten up by the boss?

Tie Xiaohu didn’t leave Sixth Bro Hu guessing. He said in a low voice, “I was the one who beat him up, and there’s still around twenty of them lying in there, but I’m not Green Dragon’s Boss anymore. The new boss of Green Dragon is him!”

With that, Tie Xiaohu returned to Ling Yun’s side. He left the rest to Abing.

Once Sixth Bro Hu heard that the boss was the one who beat Zhao Pengfei up, his heart trembled violently. Both of his legs quivered violently, and he nearly fell to the ground in shock!

“Zhao Pengfei, my a**. Have you eaten too much sh*t? How dare you offend Green Dragon’s Boss!”

Even though Sixth Bro Hu was afraid, he dared not fall to the ground. He walked straight ahead to Zhao Pengfei’s side. Lifting his foot up, he used all of his power to thrust his leg forward!

Zhao Pengfei was stomped on so hard that he cried out in pain continuously. He felt like he had finally met his end on earth!

After stomping on Zhao Pengfei, he started breathing heavily. Walking in front of Abing quickly, he bowed respectfully three times and said politely, “Green Dragon’s Human Sect. I’m Sixth Bro Hu from Wisdom faction. It’s my honor to meet the new boss!”

Even though there wasn’t an official initiation ceremony, since Tie Xiaohu had said that the new boss was Abing, Sixth Bro Hu had to acknowledge him officially. Obviously, this was a public setting. He could only offer his bow in response to this information. Once Abing took over officially, he would kneel on a single leg to acknowledge him again. This was part of Green Dragon’s rules.

The disciples Sixth Bro Hu brought along followed naturally. Each of them tossed their metal bats aside quietly and did the same.

Abing stood there without moving, his facial expression remaining the same. He naturally accepted the bows before him as he said plainly, “Sixth Bro Hu, you’re in charge of collecting Zhao Pengfei’s houses, four internet cafes, and 3.5 million yuan by tomorrow. All that is compensation for the lady here.”

“Break one of Zhao Pengfei’s ligaments on his arm and leg, then take him in. Let him reflect on himself quietly…”

Abing pointed at everyone inside the internet cafe and said, “After we leave, I want you to call the Public Security Bureau and have them take away everyone who caused trouble inside!”

“Anyway, as one of the elders in the Wisdom faction, you’ve made some lousy friends here. As one of the members and a veteran, you are to hand all of your proceeds from the gambling den to Green Dragon for three years. You will remain in charge for now. After three years, whether or not you can take your gambling den back depends on your performance.

“All of the Speedy Internet Cafe’s losses today will be borne by you. You’d better replace everything inside with new equipment. I want to see it operate as usual in one week’s time!

“Do you have any questions?”

Sixth Bro Hu was drenched in sweat. Getting to know Zhao Pengfei must have been the biggest sin of his life. If he knew that this would happen, he would have just turned his phone off. He should have asked more about the situation before making the decision to come…

He glared at Zhao Pengfei ruthlessly. Then, he swallowed with his already dry throat and said, “No problem!”

This guy, why did he have to offend Green Dragon’s Boss of all people? Of all people, he even dragged him into this mess, he must be crazy!

After Abing handled all the matters, he walked to Ling Yun’s side gradually and said quietly, “Big Brother Yun, look…”

Ling Yun said nothing, only nodding a little. He walked in front of Zhao Pengfei as he lowered his head and said, “Zhao Pengfei, it seems like you beat me up in the past. Am I wrong?”

Zhao Pengfei was instantly shocked out of his wits. He began shaking. Now that he listened to his voice, he was even more shocked. That was because Ling Yun’s appearance had changed a lot. He couldn’t recognize him at all now.

“You… You are…”

Ling Yun smiled. “I’m Ling Yun.”

Zhao Pengfei’s face turned purple instantly. His jaw dropped to its limits as he said, “You.. you’re that fat webmaster from the Speedy Internet Cafe?”

Zhao Pengfei suddenly felt like the world was coming to an end! The day he beat Ling Yun up, he felt a lot of satisfaction. He absolutely indulged in it. To date, he still engrossed himself in the feelings from that day. However, he didn’t expect karma to come back so soon.

Heavens, the two bosses of Green Dragon were clearly working on his orders. However, he happened to beat him up in the past. That…

Obviously, he was dead! If he stayed alive, it would be the greatest fortune of his life!

With a few words from Ling Yun, Tang Meng stood up from the steps. His face turned sour as he hollered, “What do you mean? D*mn, destroy all of his arms and legs. Turn him into a cripple!”

With that, he moved forward, and nobody could stop him! Tie Xiaohu and Abing naturally reacted in response. In that instant, Abing suddenly felt like he let Zhao Pengfei off too easy.

Ling Yun laughed and said, “No need…” He felt that Abing had handled the situation well.

Ling Yun stopped Tang Meng without saying another word. Instead, he tapped on a spot on Zhao Pengfei’s energy center!

He crippled Zhao Pengfei’s martial arts abilities!

“I’ll leave the rest to the three of you. I’m leaving now.”

Ling Yun said this as he pulled Xu Bingyan and Yanzi toward Tie Xiaohu’s car.
