"Ling … Ling Yun … Which … Which Ling Yun?"
Long Tianjiao fell to the ground. The side of his face that wasn't swollen from Ling Yun's slap was pale as a sheet. He raised his head with difficulty and asked in disbelief.
Ling Yun was surprised to see Long Tianjiao so frightened after hearing his name. Was his current name really that scary? Ling Yun thought to himself, Is my current name really that scary?
Long Tianjiao must have heard of his name somewhere. A name popped up in Ling Yun's mind — Long Tianyu!
On the night of Xue Meining's birthday, Ling Yun had pretended to be a pig to eat the tiger. He had trampled on Li Youmin from the Li Family, Long Tianyu from the Long Family, and Hu Shaobai from the Miracle Physician Valley. His heaven-defying performance had shocked everyone, including the three nouveau riches. It was impossible for Long Tianyu not to report this matter to the elders in his family.
That should be the reason … Ling Yun thought to himself.
In fact, Ling Yun was really wrong!
The Long Family was huge and had a deep foundation. Even though it was known as the first secular family in Huaxia, its foundation was even more profound than many ancient families and hidden sects!
Because the Long Family was so huge, there were many direct descendants and collateral descendants. Even though they were all of the same seniority, there were still those who were born of the first wife and those who were born of the second wife.
The various branches within the clan were also divided into many factions. Between the factions, for the sake of their own interests and resources, there had always been open and veiled strife, mutual strife, and disputes between the factions had never ceased.
Even though Long Tianyu and Long Tianjiao were both from the "Tian" generation and were cousins, Long Tianyu was the son of a concubine while Long Tianjiao was the son of a legitimate wife. Even though they both belonged to the Long Family, they belonged to different factions!
It could be seen from this point that Long Tianyu wanted to propose marriage to Xue Meining more than a month ago, but Long Tianjiao asked his family to set a marriage agreement with Xue Meining.
The difference was as clear as the lice on the monk's head.
Miracle Doctor Xue might have been the number one Miracle Doctor in Huaxia and an expert at Xiantian Realm Level One, but he was no longer a caretaker. He lived in seclusion in Qingshui City for the rest of his life. His only son, Xue Chengye, inherited his legacy, but he was only doing business with his medical skills and Miracle Doctor Xue's connections.
When it came to Xue Meining's generation, Xue Meining was the only girl left. As long as Xue Meining got married in the future, all of the Xue family's assets would naturally fall into the hands of others.
But what about Lin Menghan? Although the Lin Family didn't have a single Ancient Martial Artist, they had three generals. Lin Menghan's grandfather was a famous general in the Huaxia Army and was once the commander-in-chief of the military.
Lin Menghan's father was the commander of a certain army in China. As for her uncle, he was one rank higher than her father!
The Lin Family's status in China was obvious. It could be said that Lin Menghan was the real third generation of the military!
If Long Tianjiao could marry Lin Menghan, the Long Family would definitely receive the support of the Lin Family. That would be like adding wings to a tiger. The Long Family's position in the Huaxia World would be impregnable!
The Long Family was good at planning and balance. That was why they could stand tall in the forest of all the big families in Huaxia. They controlled the center of Huaxia for thousands of years without falling!
Miracle Doctor Xue might be able to use his magical medical skills to cure hundreds or thousands of people, but there were tens of thousands of tigers and wolves in an army!
The influence of the Xue Family couldn't be compared to the Lin Family. Similarly, Long Tianyu's position in the Long Family couldn't be compared to Long Tianjiao's!
Within the Long Family, Long Tianyu and Long Tianjiao belonged to different factions. Even within the same faction, there was competition between brothers, let alone different factions.
After Long Tianyu returned to the Long Family in Beijing, he reported to the elders above him. However, he reported to the elders of his own faction. Given his status, he couldn't come into contact with the core members of the Long Family.
On the other hand, the secret order that Long Tianjiao received was from the core members of the Long Family. It had nothing to do with Long Tianyu!
"If you meet Ling Yun, try your best to be on good terms with him. Don't offend him!"
Of course, there was a deeper reason behind it, but Long Tianjiao had no right to ask. He only had to follow the family's secret order.
Ling Yun didn't understand the Long Family. Of course, he didn't know the complicated relationship within. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw Long Tianjiao's stunned expression. "Which Ling Yun could it be? It's me, Ling Yun! There might be many people named Ling Yun in Huaxia, but there aren't many who could beat you up so badly in just two moves, right? "
Long Tianjiao was defeated by Ling Yun in both the battlefield and in love. Ling Yun wouldn't be courteous to him and would say whatever he wanted to say.
Indeed, there weren't many of them. Even if there were, they probably wouldn't dare to touch Long Tianjiao after knowing his identity.
Long Tianjiao was tongue-tied. He looked at Ling Yun with a pale face for a long time. Suddenly, his face turned ashen, and he hung his head dejectedly.
The Long Family told Long Tianjiao to be on good terms with them and not to offend them. Of course, this person couldn't be an ordinary person. There were even fewer people who could beat a Xiantian Realm Level One expert like him to the point where he couldn't even retaliate!
If this Ling Yun in front of him wasn't the person in the family's secret order to be on good terms with him, who could it be?
Long Tianjiao hung his head low. His heart was filled with hope, but his mind was alive again.
Ling Yun had a grudge against Long Tianjiao for stealing his wife and humiliating him. Did Long Tianjiao hate Ling Yun? Of course, he hated Ling Yun to the core. He wanted nothing more than to peel off Ling Yun's skin, pull out his tendons, and kick his head off like a ball!
However, he couldn't beat Ling Yun. He had no other choice but to swallow his anger!
Originally, he had asked for Ling Yun's name because he was prepared to swallow his anger and find his brothers and friends after leaving. He might even ask for the help of the Dragon Team and Heavenly Team to tear Ling Yun into a thousand pieces and regain his face!
Lin Menghan had long become Ling Yun's woman. Long Tianjiao's pride wouldn't allow him to marry her even if she couldn't marry Ling Yun. He, Long Tianjiao, had plenty of women.
However, Long Tianjiao had to get his revenge no matter what!
But now, after hearing Ling Yun's name and confirming Ling Yun's identity, Long Tianjiao didn't want to think that way anymore.
This was the first time Long Tianjiao had heard of someone who could make the core members of the Long Family issue such a secret order!
The Long Family could use half negotiation and half coercion to get Long Tianjiao and Lin Menghan engaged. But what about Ling Yun?
They could only try their best to befriend him and not offend him!
Long Tianjiao might not be able to defeat Ling Yun, but that was because Ling Yun's strength was too terrifying. That didn't mean that Long Tianjiao was an ignorant and incompetent person. He was different from Sun Xing from the Sun Family. On the contrary, he was undoubtedly one of the best among the younger generation of the Long Family.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be qualified to be the Deputy Team Leader of the Huaxia Condor Team!
One was the Lin Family, and the other was Ling Yun. Long Tianjiao knew which was more important even with his butt!
What was the Lin Family compared to a Xiantian Realm master who could beat him up? What was Lin Menghan compared to his future position in the Long Family?
Women? Long Tianjiao had played with many beauties before. He, Long Tianjiao, had slept with countless virgins!
Long Tianjiao made a prompt decision to give up Lin Menghan and please Ling Yun!
Since Lin Menghan and Ling Yun were in love, and he had to befriend Ling Yun, why not do him a favor?
Long Tianjiao suddenly realized that the slap and kick from Ling Yun were really worth it!
That was the education of the Long Family for the younger generation. Family first, interests first! In front of the interests of the family, everything could be ignored!
Long Tianjiao suddenly floated up from the ground. He lifted his hand gently and pretended to pat the dust off his body as if nothing had happened. He tidied up his clothes in an elegant manner.
Then, Long Tianjiao raised his head and looked at Ling Yun with a fawning smile on his face. The way he looked at Ling Yun was as if he was looking at his own blood brother!
Ling Yun was bewildered by Long Tianjiao's sudden change. What was with Long Tianjiao's gaze? Was he mad?
Long Tianjiao wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth and cupped his fists at Ling Yun. "I'm Long Tianjiao from the Long Family in Beijing. I've heard a lot about you, Ling Yun. I didn't expect to meet you here today. It's really a pleasure to meet you!"
Long Tianjiao's tone and eyes were extremely sincere. It was as if they had known each other for a long time and had nothing to do with what happened just now!
It could be said that Long Tianjiao's move was extremely powerful. The speed at which he changed his expression, especially after experiencing the rage and humiliation just now, made him forget everything in an instant. Even the other nouveau riches of the Long Family wouldn't be able to do this!
To put it nicely, a man knew when to bow and submit. To put it bluntly, he was unscrupulous to achieve his own goals. Not only was he ruthless to his enemies, but he was even more ruthless to himself. Only when one had reached the pinnacle of honey-tongued would one be able to do what Long Tianjiao did!
Ling Yun was a little puzzled by Long Tianjiao's words. However, Ling Yun had seen many more unbelievable scenes than this. He remained calm and smiled faintly. "Oh? So you're from the Long Family in Beijing. Let's skip the pleasantries. What's the matter? "
Ling Yun wanted to see what Long Tianjiao had up his sleeves!
Long Tianjiao turned his head slightly to look at Lin Menghan, who had already walked out of the villa. "Since Brother Ling has heard of the Long Family, I won't beat around the bush. Everything that happened today was just a beautiful misunderstanding!" Long Tianjiao said sincerely.
Ling Yun sneered in his heart.
Long Tianjiao continued, "I, Long Tianjiao, am a direct descendant of the Long Family. I'm twenty-five years old this year. Some things are beyond my control in a large family. I'm at the age of marriage, and my family has arranged a marriage for me. I have no right to resist. I believe Brother Ling can understand this."
Ling Yun only smiled slightly.
Long Tianjiao continued, "But now that I'm here, I know that the daughter of the Lin Family already has someone in her heart. She won't marry anyone else! Long Tianjiao might not be talented, but I know that a melon that is forcefully picked won't be sweet … "
Long Tianjiao suddenly broke into a smile and said to Ling Yun and Lin Menghan, who was standing next to him, "You're a good person.
"Therefore, I hereby officially announce that the engagement between Miss Lin and me is cancelled immediately. I wish the two of you a blissful and happy marriage for a hundred years, to a ripe old age!" If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for me at Qidian ().
