Dragon Emperor, Martial God
Chapter 381: The Return of the Brother! A Fatal Attack!
“God, so many women…”
“Hades Tian sure knows how to play, this is simply too crazy…”
“This should be the legendary… Hades Tian’s ‘Emperor’s Harem’…”
“Hades Tian is doomed this time. No wonder he was so honest today, it was because he was caught by Ling Yun while he was in bed!”
Seeing Tang Meng revealing such gossipy news, all of the reporters instantly swarmed around him, snapping shots of him at the same time.
Without a doubt, Tian Botao’s future had been completely destroyed, along with his reputation!
Ling Yun naturally had no interest in meddling with those things, he merely gave the already fainted Hades Tian a cold look and said, “Hmph, you invited trouble on yourself!”
Ling Yun then turned away from Tian Botao and walked over to the side of the beautiful TV anchor, Fang Lingfei.
As Fang Lingfei represented the province’s TV station, she always had the best interview location and didn’t have to squeeze with the other reporters.
After glancing at the video playing in Tang Meng’s hand, her face immediately flushed red in embarrassment, and she promptly averted her gaze from it. She started to wonder why she even bothered to defend such a shameless hooligan in the first place.
“Hmph, what do you want this time?” Seeing Ling Yun walking over to her side, Fang Lingfei was embarrassed and ashamed at the same time. Subconsciously, she crossed her hands in front of her breasts and made a defensive gesture.
Ling Yun laughed cheekily and spoke to her in a secretive manner. “I have exclusive news over here, are you interested in it?”
As Fang Lingfei worked at the province’s TV station, it wasn’t the first time she had heard of such scandalous and filthy news. She wasn’t surprised after hearing about Tian Botao’s affair with nine other mistresses; she had heard of other scandals involving ten times the number of women!
Now, there were officials everywhere that abused their power to earn money through corrupt means. Without any means of spending the money, they spent it on “raising” their mistresses. There was even a high ranking official who had an affair with over a hundred mistresses at once!
Dissatisfied with the way Ling Yun looked at her, Fang Lingfei slightly turned her petite body away, avoiding Ling Yun’s gaze and saying, “Isn’t it just a corrupted official playing around with women and getting exposed by you? This sort of news is only good for gossip and can’t be considered real news!”
Hearing this, Ling Yun laughed and said, “Tian Botao’s matter definitely isn’t considered important news, but what if it’s news pertaining to the Director of the Public Security Bureau, Luo Zhong?”
After hearing what Ling Yun said, Fang Lingfei’s interest was piqued. She looked at Ling Yun as if she was deep in thought, then hurriedly asked him in a quiet voice, “Director Luo? He has already been dealt with so badly by you, what other matters could there possibly be?”
Ling Yun laughed cheekily and gestured for her to follow him, leading her over to Liang Fengyi.
“Take out the voice recording and let our pretty TV anchor listen to it…”
Ling Yun knew that letting Fang Lingfei listen this recording would be insufficient to force him down from his current position. However, it would become a thorn in his heart, and it would serve as a warning in the future should he decide to do anything funny involving Ling Yun.
Furthermore, if it was utilized well, Li Yifeng and Tang Tianhao could use it as a lead to open an investigation on Luo Zhong. The moment any problem surfaced from the investigation, Luo Zhong’s reign would be over!
A few minutes later, the recording had finished playing. Ling Yun flashed a smile at Fang Lingfei, who was currently wearing a heavy expression, and said, “So? Do you dare to release this in the news?”
Fang Lingfei was currently in a dilemma. She started to mutter to herself, “This involves a high ranking official. Before the truth regarding this matter has been revealed, people from the news don’t have the authority to report on this…”
“Furthermore, in order to publicize news like this, it would have to go through the approval of the city’s government as well as the station’s director…”
Ling Yun, of course, was oblivious to the woes of the people from the news.
The more Ling Yun heard, the colder his heart became, and his gaze slowly became one of disdain. He said sarcastically, “When I saw your overbearing look, I initially thought that you were someone of justice and morals. Seems like I was wrong to think that way…”
After saying his piece, he no longer bothered with Fang Lingfei, who was on the verge of getting angered to death by him. Instead, he shouted for Tang Meng to come over.
Barely managing to squeeze himself out of the crowd, Tang Meng walked over to Ling Yun. He wiped the sweat on his face and said, “Aiyo, the reporters were too ferocious, I almost got my phone snatched away by them…”
“Brother Yun, what’s the matter?”
Ling Yun took the phone from the hands of Liang Fengyi and placed it in Tang Meng’s hands, saying, “Let’s go and visit that b*stard Luo Zhong. We’ll go and make sure he turns into an honest man in the future!”
Fang Lingfei was under the restriction of the country’s laws and regulations and couldn’t publicize any content in the news. However, Tang Meng’s father was on the verge of collapsing. He wanted nothing more than for Luo Zhong to be utterly destroyed, so he was definitely excited.
When the both of them were about to go and find Luo Zhong, both Liang Fengyi and Long Wu stood up and came to Ling Yun’s side, saying at the same time, “I’ll go with you…”
Ling Yun turned around and looked at the two ladies in front of him before turning towards Liang Fengyi and saying, “If you could go, I wouldn’t have asked Tang Meng to come over. I think it’s best for you to stay put here, just in case that b*stard finds another opportunity to take revenge on you!”
Seeing Ling Yun’s concern for her, the most fragile corner of Liang Fengyi’s heart was moved for a moment. She no longer insisted on tagging along and only nodded silently at Ling Yun’s words.
So long as Li Yifeng was able to overcome his current predicament, Luo Zhong would definitely have to step down. Ling Yun knew that once Luo Zhong stepped down, he would be unable to do anything to Green Dragon. Therefore, he silently agreed to Long Wu tagging along.
Just when the trio started making their way over, Ling Yun suddenly halted his steps. He directed his gaze beyond the crowd and said with a smile, “Zhang Ling is here!”
“Eh, Tie Xiaohu seems to have arrived too! This brat turned up pretty quickly…”
“Excuse me, everyone, excuse me…” Amidst the huge crowd, Zhang Ling emerged, promptly walking over to Ling Yun.
The moment she received Liang Fengyi’s call, she was over the moon. She immediately left her house and flagged a cab to rush over.
“Give me a while…” After saying that to Tang Meng, Ling Yun hurriedly walked over to the crowd and gently paved a way forward. Soon, he arrived in front of Zhang Ling.
Zhang Ling, who was frantically squeezing her way forward, suddenly found herself in the embrace of someone. Momentarily stunned, she promptly lifted her head to identify the person, only to see Ling Yun’s handsome and dashing face flashing a heartfelt smile at her.
“Ling Yun, you… where did you run off to, I was worried sick…” Ignoring everyone else in the surroundings, Zhang Ling opened up her arms and returned Ling Yun’s embrace. She pushed her own petite and soft body against Ling Yun’s, warm tears flowing uncontrollably down her face.
In the past week, even though Zhang Ling forced herself to attend classes, her worry and concern for Ling Yun were no less than that of Xue Meining and Yao Rou.
Feeling Zhang Ling’s warm body in his embrace, a sweet and tender feeling arose in his heart. With an aching heart, he said, “Alright, stop crying, can’t you see that I’m back in one piece?”
Just when he was about to wipe the tears off Zhang Ling’s face with his hands, he realized that his entire hand was covered in dirt. Seeing this, he shook his head and said, “Alright, my entire body is dirty. Any more and you will dirty your own shirt. Your little aunt is in there, I’ll take you to her…”
At this moment, Zhang Ling no longer cared about whether Ling Yun’s body was dirty or not. She was only afraid that the moment she let go of him, he would disappear once more. In the midst of her sobbing, she said, “When did you… come back? Why didn’t you… call me the moment you came back?”
Ling Yun immediately told her that his phone had run out of battery and was currently charging. Seeing that Zhang Ling had no intention of releasing her grip, Ling Yun swept her off her feet and carried her in his arms, walking over to the center of the scene where Liang Fengyi was.
Seeing Ling Yun carrying Zhang Ling over, Liang Fengyi had mixed feelings about it. With a slight twitch of her lips, she let out a sigh silently in her heart.
After placing Zhang Ling down, Ling Yun smiled and said, “You can talk to your little aunt first. After I have finished settling some stuff, we’ll leave this place and talk more somewhere else.”
“En…” Even though Zhang Ling agreed obediently, her hand couldn’t bear to let go of Ling Yun’s hand. After addressing Liang Fengyi, she turned around to look at Tang Meng.
“Tang Meng, you, why are you suddenly alright now?” Zhang Ling asked, shocked.
After Tang Meng had sustained heavy injuries and was taken to the hospital, Zhang Ling had visited him a few times and naturally knew how severe his injuries were.
Tang Meng laughed cheekily and rubbed his bald head before proudly saying, “With Brother Yun here, those small injuries were considered nothing!”
“Hmph, then why did you not bother to give me a call the moment Ling Yun came back? What do you mean by that?” Zhang Ling angrily replied, upset at Tang Meng’s lack of loyalty.
“Hehe, it was too late last night. Ever since I met Brother Yun, I have been extremely busy…”
Tang Meng knew that he had overlooked Zhang Ling, so he could only look for an excuse to save himself.
However, deep down, Tang Meng thought, You didn’t even tell me that you had something going on with Brother Yun. If I had known, I would have notified you with a text long ago.
Beyond the crowd, the sound of screeching car brakes rang out, attracting the attention of everyone there. A young man with a body that stood nearly two meters tall and resembled that of an iron pillar stepped out of the car. It was Tie Xiaohu!
“Brother Yun!” Tie Xiaohu shouted in a moment of excitement. As Tie Xiaohu had a tall stature, he was able to spot Ling Yun beyond the crowd.
Not bothering to wipe off the sweat on his body, the moment he stepped out of the car, he madly dashed into the crowd, towards Ling Yun. Tie Xiaohu was different from Zhang Ling. With a body that huge and powerful, the people in the crowd were frightened and automatically paved the way for him.
This brat progressed in the Stellar Condensation Technique. He actually broke through the third minor realm…
Seeing Tie Xiaohu had finally arrived in one piece, he couldn’t help but reveal a smile while nodding his head. He could finally put his heart at ease.
Soon, Tie Xiaohu had made his way through the crowd. After pulling away from the policemen who were in charge of setting up the perimeter, he took big strides and arrived in front of Ling Yun, immediately giving him a bear hug!
“Brother Yun! You’re back? I’ve missed you to death! I…” Tie Xiaohu said tearfully. He was too emotional at that point and was at a loss for words.
The brotherhood between them was hard to express with words.
“How are things in the Public Security Bureau? Did anyone bully you?” Ling Yun lightly patted Tie Xiaohu and asked, smiling.
Wiping away the tears in his eyes, Tie Xiaohu replied, “Who would dare? I have been diligently practicing, I knew Brother Yun would definitely come back…”
After nodding his head, Ling Yun secretly gave Tie Xiaohu some instructions. “Boss Green Dragon is here, hurry up and go pay your respects…”
If Green Dragon was going against Ling Yun, he would definitely not ask Tie Xiaohu to do so. However, the other party had clearly unconditionally offered their help to Ling Yun. Furthermore, even Long Kun and his daughter of the Green Dragon Sect had personally come down. Naturally, Ling Yun had to let Tie Xiaohu pay his respects.
After releasing Ling Yun from his embrace, Tie Xiaohu took big strides and walked over to the front of Long Kun, paying his respects. “Uncle Dragon… I…”
Ever since Tie Xiaohu appeared, Long Kun was laughing in joy. Seeing that he came over to pay his respects, Long Kun couldn’t help but nod in approval and said, “Good lad, you have improved quite a lot! In the future, do a good job following Ling Yun, Green Dragon will depend on you next time…”
“Huh?” Tie Xiaohu was utterly confused with what Long Kun had said. What did he mean by saying to do a good job following Ling Yun and that Green Dragon would depend on him in the future?
Ling Yun, who was standing at the sides, was stunned as well. From what Boss Green Dragon had said, it seemed like he was handing over Green Dragon to him.
Long Kun promptly added on, “Alright, now’s not the time to talk. You should go ahead and follow Ling Yun to settle the rest of the matters, hurry along.”
After acknowledging Long Kun, Tie Xiaohu hurriedly returned to Ling Yun’s side. It was only at this moment that he had the opportunity to assess his surroundings. Not only did he see the numerous police officers surrounding them, but he also saw the hundreds of Green Dragon brothers on the site as well.
Those were the best fighters from Green Dragon, who Tie Xiaohu could mostly recognize.
Tie Xiaohu was stunned. In his heart, he was thinking, What was Uncle Dragon trying to do here? Is he going all out with the police? What did Brother Yun do to cause such a huge ruckus?
“How is the food in the Public Security Bureau?” Seeing Tie Xiaohu, Tang Meng, who had a close relationship with him as well, couldn’t help but tease him.
“Tsk… it’s not like I have never eaten the food in there…” Tie Xiaohu smiled and gave Tang Meng a fist. He then added on angrily, “You still dare to mock me? When I was sent in, you didn’t even bother to come visit me…”
With a flash of hatred in his eyes, Tang Meng replied, “I had it worse than you. After you were sent in, I was beaten up by Xie Junyan. I was left with a few broken bones and was hospitalized…”
“What? F*ck! Enough said, I’ll take revenge for you!” Tie Xiaohu said angrily, enraged after hearing what Tang Meng had said.
Looking at a police car that had just arrived at the scene, Ling Yun smiled and said, “It’s not too late to take revenge. Let us first find the guy that sent the order to arrest you!”
From the police car stepped out two policemen. One of them immediately ran over to Luo Zhong and handed him two sets of keys after saying a few words to him.
Instead of waiting for Ling Yun and the rest to come over to him, Luo Zhong took the keys and walked over towards Ling Yun, carrying a friendly smile on his face.
“Ling Yun, these are the keys to the two mansions. Now that the misunderstanding has been settled, we can drop the issue now!”
After saying his piece, he passed the keys over to Ling Yun and was about to give the order to his team to pack up and return.
Ling Yun casually threw the keys over to Tang Meng before lightly pressing on Luo Zhong and saying, “Director Luo, I have something else with me that you would be extremely interested in…”
Luo Zhong’s face became rigid after hearing what Ling Yun said. He forced a smile on his face and said, “Ling Yun, you see, I have already returned you the keys to the mansions and unfrozen your bank accounts. I have also set your friend free! This…”
“Hmph! You think we are finished just like that? Let Director Luo here listen to the recording…” Ling Yun said coldly, instructing Tang Meng to play the recording for Luo Zhong.
Tang Meng nodded excitedly, playing the voice recording of Gou Lianshan’s confession.
“Big nephew, stop stop stop! Please, don’t let…”
After hearing less than half a minute of it, the facial expression on Luo Zhong’s face changed drastically, revealing a face of fear and desperation.
This was the true fatal attack that Ling Yun had in store for Luo Zhong!
