Chapter 953: Chapter 953: Consolation Money

"Damn, why isn’t Jiunan here yet? Once he arrives, I’ll have you all kneel and apologize to me!"

Although Shen Ao was a bit confused now, he still couldn’t quite believe that a mere twenty-five-year-old youth could be the one who defeated Wu Shanshui and Di Shi.

The current number one on the Martial Arts Overlord List?

If this person gets stubborn, there’s really no salvation.

Hearing Jiunan’s name, Yang Qi smiled. Back during the South Pill Sect incident, he had defeated Jiunan with a single sword strike, and at that time, he hadn’t yet absorbed the Dragon Bone’s energy.

Now, in front of him, what does Jiunan count for?

"Hehe, Jiunan, right? Tong Wu, release him for now, let’s wait for Jiunan to arrive."

Yang Qi chuckled and said, "Everyone, enjoy your meal and don’t let a pest spoil the mood."

Shen Ao’s face turned ugly, but he endured it.

Enduring for a moment, he was determined to get revenge and let everyone know his prowess.

Quickly enough, Jiunan arrived.

"Lord Jiunan, this kid is impersonating the number one on the Martial Arts Overlord List. You mustn’t let him go. He even claims to have defeated Lord Di Shi. Ridiculous, isn’t it? He’s just twenty-five years old, even if he started cultivation in the womb, it’s impossible."

Seeing Jiunan, Shen Ao finally got excited again. He looked at Yang Qi and said, "Kid, daring to impersonate the number one on the Martial Arts Overlord List, you must be tired of living. Let me tell you, Lord Jiunan was present that day; you might fool others but not Lord Jiunan."

"Jiunan, are you going to help him?"

Yang Qi drank a cup of wine and laughed.

"Mr. Yang is teasing me."

Jiunan bowed and said, "Even Wu Shanshui and Di Shi are no match for you, I’m just ninth on the Martial Arts Overlord List, not comparable to you.

I don’t know this person; I just walked into the wrong room."

After speaking, he turned around and left.

"Lord Jiunan! Lord Jiunan!"

Shen Ao was dumbfounded.

He spent so much money and used so many connections to invite Jiunan for help, but Jiunan, upon arriving, just turned and left, completely leaving him bewildered.

"You want to die, don’t drag me into it. How dare you provoke Mr. Yang? Are you tougher than Wu Shanshui of the Sun and Moon Sect? Tougher than Di Shi of the Martial Alliance? Ridiculous, get lost!"

Jiunan kicked the retreating Shen Ao.

The pain made Shen Ao howl.

But now, the pain was the least of his concerns.

What did Jiunan’s words mean?

Did it mean Yang Qi really was the big figure?

The one who killed Wu Shanshui and defeated Di Shi.

Bang!

It felt like a thunderbolt hit him right on the head, leaving Shen Ao totally stunned.

He had been quite confident, thinking Yang Qi was definitely an imposter, even mocking Wu Youwei for his timidity. Yet now, even Jiunan confirmed it wasn’t fake.

Originally, he wasn’t afraid of the ten great families of Sea City.

After all, he was a young master of the Capital City’s Shen family.

But this guy who stormed into the Martial Alliance’s Sea City branch, killing Wu Shanshui and defeating Di Shi, was a madman unafraid of the Martial Alliance itself, and the Shen family was nothing in comparison.

It’s over!

This time it’s all over!

At this moment, Shen Ao’s face turned exceedingly pale, like bleached toilet paper, trembling all over and filled with fear.

He really offended someone he shouldn’t have offended; damn, how could this happen?

In the end, it’s just that he got too used to being arrogant every day, always doing things his way, and ended up offending someone he shouldn’t have offended.

"Mr. Yang, I failed to recognize Mount Tai standing before me. Please spare me considering the Shen family’s reputation. The magnanimous won’t hold grudges against the petty, and if you visit the Capital City, our Shen family will definitely treat you sincerely."

Shen Ao quickly changed his approach because he couldn’t afford to provoke Yang Qi and simply began to flatter him.

Yang Ruoyi was an ordinary person, knowing little about the martial arts world, so she was completely unaware of Yang Qi’s story.

Now, seeing Shen Ao’s attitude towards Yang Qi take a 180-degree turn, she was utterly astonished.

This was Shen Ao.

The young master of the Capital City’s Shen family.

Someone with quite a status in the Capital City.

Outside the Capital City, he is even more influential.

And such a person is afraid of Yang Qi?

She was just worried that she might drag Yang Qi into trouble, so she planned to leave with Shen Ao.

But now she was truly puzzled by the situation.

Clearly, Shen Ao was the one who got beaten, yet he’s the one apologizing now. This matter was too bizarre, leaving her dumbfounded.

Totally unable to understand the situation.

"Who told you to stand up?"

Yang Qi casually glanced at Shen Ao and asked, "Wu Youwei’s apology was sincere. Is this your apology? Are you trying to use the Shen family to pressure me?"

Shen Ao’s face became a bit ugly.

Nevertheless, he knelt down: "Mr. Yang, it’s better to reconcile than make enemies. Even if the Shen family is not the best, it’s still a formidable family in the Capital City, perhaps even stronger than the quasi-noble families in Sea City. I’ve apologized and knelt down, can we just let this matter go?"

"How do you think the Shen family compares to the Di family?"

Yang Qi sneered and said, "I’ve dared to confront the Di family. What are you to me? You think you can put up airs with me here? Let me tell you, if you cannot apologize with more sincerity, you’ll not leave here today.

At worst, I’ll kill one more person.

I’ll see if the Shen family has the guts to seek revenge in Sea City!"

Shen Ao trembled all over.

Indeed, this was someone who dared to confront Di Shi, what was he in comparison?

Thinking of this, Shen Ao finally deflated: "Mr. Yang, tell me, what must I do for you to be satisfied?"

Yang Qi casually glanced at Shen Ao and said, "Just listen. I’ve heard your family signed a thirty-year contract with Yang Ruoyi, and there’s still twenty-five years left.

If breached, you’d have to pay thirty billion in compensation, right?"

"No! No such thing."

Shen Ao shook his head and said, "Actually, that contract itself doesn’t have legal validity. We just took advantage of Yang Ruoyi’s lack of legal knowledge, bribed her agent, and deceived her.

I’ll immediately deal with this contract.

Miss Yang is now a free person, able to sign a contract with any entertainment company."

"You!"

Yang Ruoyi was stunned.

Shen Ao aside, deceiving her was understandable since he’s an outsider.

But Agent Liu Jie, whom she’d considered like a sister, even helped the Shen family deceive her?

"The Shen family made Yang Ruoyi famous. What about the money you’ve deceived these years?"

Yang Qi asked.

"Let’s forget about that money."

Yang Ruoyi suddenly said, "After all, it was the Shen family’s entertainment company that made me famous. Let these five years count as repaying their favor, and going forward, we owe each other nothing."

"Alright, let’s forget about the money deceived."

Yang Qi said, "However, I experienced quite the scare today — what will you offer to compensate me?"

Shen Ao cursed inwardly: Damn bastard, it was me who got scared, alright? What scare did you have? Asking for money? Who could scare you? You maniac.

But he dared not say it aloud. He smiled and said, "Rest assured, I’ll transfer a billion to you immediately for your trouble."
