Words:1800Update:23/01/08 19:21:05
Currently, in a luxurious villa in the Fantasy Realm.
Dong!
An exquisite glass was smashed on the ground, shattering on the spot.
And the owner of the glass cup was Chris. At this time, the injuries on his body were more or less healed, because the family's internal healing pills were pretty good.
The problem was that his physical injuries had healed, but his mental injuries hadn't healed at all.
Because he had been beaten up by Xia Ping in front of the mission hall, and in front of everyone at that, he had become the laughing stock of the family. He was ridiculed by the other direct family members.
One had to know that Barty was just a clown for him to amuse himself. But now, Barty had beaten him and his lackeys up, humiliating him.
It could be said that he even had the intention to wipe out Xia Ping's entire family.
"Damn that Barty! That bastard! He actually managed to turn things around and even won the bet."
Chris roared angrily. He was furious to the extreme.
Originally, when he heard about the bet between Xia Ping and Jacob, he was overjoyed. He thought that Barty was dead for sure. After this, he would definitely become a pauper. He might even drop from his position as a noble and become an ant-like commoner.
When that time came, he could take revenge however he wanted. He could crush Barty to death however he wanted.
But before Chris could be happy for a few days, he found out that the kid had actually turned things around. He had swindled Jacob out of tens of billions in one go. He had even made Jacob go bankrupt and suffer heavy losses, turning him into a madman.
When he thought about how that clown-like figure from back then had skyrocketed to become a person above all others, and how he would have to look up to him in the future and bow and scrape to him, he couldn't help but feel angry.
"Boss, we can't let that Barty continue to run wild."
One of the lackeys on the side shouted, "That bastard had a fortuitous encounter and advanced to the Returning Truth Realm. He became so arrogant that he even beat up someone as honorable as you, boss, without giving you any face.
Now, he has obtained tens of billions and all the wealth of Jacob, a Thunder Retribution Realm powerhouse. This is no less than a heaven-shaking fortuitous encounter. From now on, he will be able to pay it all back. "
"That's right. That's a lot of money. It's billions! Even the most beloved heir of the Lehnster Family wouldn't have that much money."
"If he used this money to buy all kinds of pills and spirit herbs, he would be able to advance to the Thunder Tribulation realm and become an elder of our Illusion race. If you use it to buy magic treasures, you will be able to arm yourself to the teeth. "
"Damn it! That Barty is really going to turn things around. From now on, we might not even be able to call him Lord Barty anymore. He's high and mighty, and we're no longer on the same level."
Many of Barty's lackeys were envious, jealous, and hateful. Before, they had ignored Barty, but in the blink of an eye, they were no longer worthy of him. They were no longer on the same level.
They were green with jealousy over Barty's adventures.
"Shut up. A clown like you wants to soar into the sky and ride on my head from now on? Don't even dream about it."
Barty gritted his teeth.
"But we can't do anything to him. He's now the most popular person in the Lawrence family. Maybe he's even been recognized by the head of the Lawrence family. His rise is inevitable."
Some of the lackeys were helpless.
"Rise? What a joke. He'd have to be alive to do that. "
Barty clenched his fists with a murderous aura. Many of the lackeys could feel the terrifying murderous intent on Barty's body. It was simply chilling. Barty was like a demon right now.
… …
On the other hand, in Barty's home in Lawrence City.
"Barty, congratulations. You've now become a celebrity in the Illusion race."
Elder Emma looked at Xia Ping with a complicated expression. She had never thought something like this would happen.
After completing the year-end mission and swindling billions of universe dollars, Xia Ping had already become the most popular person in the Lawrence family. Many elders and children of the family wanted to get to know Barty and build a good relationship.
Most importantly, this group of people had their eyes on Xia Ping's wealth and wanted a share of it. They all harbored malicious intentions.
However, Xia Ping rejected all of their efforts. He refused to answer any calls.
Thinking of this, she remembered about Jacob. She couldn't help but remind him, "But I'm afraid it's not a good thing to offend Jacob like this. He might take revenge."
Although Jacob was now a pauper, even a broken ship had three nails. Plus, he was a Thunder Retribution Realm powerhouse. It was a relatively simple matter for him to accumulate wealth quickly.
Moreover, a crazy Thunder Retribution Realm powerhouse was incomparably terrifying. They could do anything. Any junior would feel like sitting on pins and needles when faced with a Thunder Retribution Realm powerhouse.
"What a joke. Do you think that Jacob won't take revenge if I give up that contract?"
Xia Ping asked in return.
"This!"
Elder Emma was stunned for a moment. That was indeed the case. Jacob was famous for seeking revenge for the smallest grievance. If Barty had lost this bet, he would definitely have been hit while he was down and humiliated to the extreme.
Even if Barty gave up the bet, Jacob probably wouldn't feel the slightest bit of gratitude. He might even think that Barty was weak and easy to bully. People were just like that.
"It's just a small matter. Did you do what I asked you to do?"
Xia Ping looked at Emma.
"You want to become a treasury guard? I see. I've already reported this to the family head, Sophia. The family head knows about what you've done recently and is very interested in you. He wants to meet you. "
Emma said in a low voice.
"Meet him?"
Xia Ping frowned.
He was still a little afraid of meeting the Immortal Sage in the Illusion race. After all, he wasn't a member of the Illusion race. Some of his flaws might be seen through.
If possible, he hoped to keep a low profile and quietly steal the treasures from the Illusion race's treasury.
"What? Are you not willing? Don't you know how great of an honor it is for the family head to summon you? If the family head appreciates you, you won't get any benefits. Just a little bit of information and you'll be able to enjoy it for the rest of your life. "
Emma was very discontented when she saw Xia Ping's expression. Normally, a member of the Lawrence family would be wild with joy when the patriarch summoned them. How could they be like this guy? He was actually frowning. This was outrageous.
"Of course not. I was just a little overjoyed and couldn't react in time. If the family head wants to see me, it's naturally my honor."
Xia Ping said in a low voice.
"Hmph. That's for the best."
Emma snorted. She didn't want to pursue this matter any further. After all, this was only a small matter. "Come with me now. The patriarch is already waiting for you at the Lawrence Family's headquarters. Don't let the patriarch wait for too long."
She waved her hand and let Xia Ping follow her to the core area of the Lawrence family headquarters.
