"Is there really no room for negotiation?" Ling Yang's face darkened when he saw that everyone was looking at him. It was as if everyone was waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
He did not regret what he had said. They could only blame themselves for having too few people. He did not expect these guys to be so united and actually gang up on them.
"No, this is the result of your own choice, so I only want the result!" Teng Fei said calmly.
Everyone should take responsibility for their words and actions. Even though he didn't go to the inn, he didn't know if Ling Yang had really said those words.
But just now, not only did Ling Yang admit to what he had said, he even repeated what he had said.
This meant that they did not wrongly accuse him.
As for his companions, they had agreed to the bet, so they naturally had to take responsibility for their own choices.
"Do we have a choice? You forced us to come here, and you forced us to make the bet! "Zhou Lei said angrily.
"So what? What's important is that you agreed to the bet, right? "Teng Fei sneered.
"You …"
"Zhou Lei!" Zhou Lei wanted to retort, but he was stopped by Li Yun.
Actually, as Teng Fei said, regardless of whether they were forced, they had already made the bet. This was something they had admitted to.
Now that they had lost the bet, according to the agreement, they should honor their promise.
"Since we have lost, we are willing to kneel and apologize!" Li Yun said.
Although he felt helpless, he did not have the courage to go back on his promise in front of so many people.
This was because he was sure that if they did not honor their promise, Teng Fei would definitely lead everyone here to kill them.
Although it was a little embarrassing to kneel and apologize, he had to do it. It was better to be embarrassed than to lose his life.
"If that's the case, then you should kneel and apologize to everyone here!" Teng Fei said.
"Do you know who we are?"
"Ling Yang! Shut up! We lost the bet, kneel! "Seeing that Ling Yang was actually going to expose his identity, Li Yun was shocked and shouted again.
"I won't kneel, I just want to remind them. Although you have more people and we can't beat you, we admit defeat.
However, I still have to remind you that if I kneel here today, I can guarantee that even the Cheng Clan will not be able to save you! "Ling Yang said to Teng Fei.
"Is that so? If that's the case, then shouldn't I act like I'm afraid? "Teng Fei didn't take Ling Yang's words seriously and instead mocked him.
"Whether you're afraid or not is up to you. I'm just reminding you. If you let us go, it can be considered as accumulating good karma for yourselves. Otherwise, when the time comes, you can only follow your master and walk the path of death! "Ling Yang threatened.
"Haha, it seems like you won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. Even at a time like this, you still want to threaten us.
Do you think that the people of Yungui City are scared? Let me tell you, either you die here today, or you kneel down and apologize. Stop putting on an act, or else I won't have the patience to listen to your nonsense! "Teng Fei gave an ultimatum.
"Kneel! Apologize! Kneel! Apologize! "The crowd shouted once again.
"You better not regret this!" Ling Yang's face turned the color of pig liver. These guys really didn't give him any face.
"Kneel!" Lu Yi did not want to hear any more nonsense from this guy and immediately stopped him.
"Kneel!" The crowd shouted again.
In the distance!
"Master, it seems like these people's identities are not simple. There is obviously a force behind them, and this force doesn't seem to be friendly with the Cheng Clan!" Hearing Ling Yang's words, Zhou Heng immediately frowned.
Previously, he had no way of confirming Ling Yang's identity. After all, there were so many people going in and out of the city every day. Even if there was an identity verification system, it was not difficult for those who were skilled to hide their identity.
Most importantly, the identity verification system they set up was mainly to prevent a large number of experts from entering the city.
Therefore, for a small number of people with ulterior motives to enter the city, there was still a way.
Moreover, in such a large city, it was obviously impossible to screen out all the people who were hostile to the Cheng Clan in advance.
Just like Li Yun and the others, they originally intended to hide their background and power.
Moreover, before this, they did not show any hostility towards the Cheng Clan. It was not difficult for them to enter the city with the excuse of passing by. Even if they wanted to guard against them, it was actually very difficult.
However, Ling Yang's words had clearly exposed their hostility towards the Cheng Clan. In such a situation, as the city lord, he naturally had to be on guard against them. He even had to capture them.
"Since these people came prepared, there is no need to be anxious. After this matter is over, send some people to follow them." Cheng Yu said.
Previously, someone had intruded into the Cheng Clan. Now, there were people who wanted to harm the Cheng Clan. It was most likely related to Wang Chao.
Obviously, Wang Chao was now paying attention to the Cheng Clan. It was indeed troubled times. He had to understand more about the situation.
"Based on the current situation, if they want to survive, they will definitely have to kneel down and apologize. However, if they really kneel down and apologize, I am afraid that they will not have the face to continue staying in the city.
I think it is very likely that they will leave Yungui City. I think it might be better for us to directly capture them and interrogate them directly Zhou Heng said.
"As the lord of a city, have you not considered the consequences of doing so? Right now, because they insulted everyone in the city, they are here to suppress them.
Although that person did not directly insult our Cheng Clan, from his words, we can hear his dissatisfaction with the Cheng Clan.
If they were taken away by our Cheng Clan while they were in the city, what would others think?
Would they think that our Cheng Clan is intolerant? Others only said such a sentence and we took them away.
Does that mean that our Cheng Clan is too strong and doesn't even have the right to speak? Once they say something bad about the Cheng Clan, our Cheng Clan will come out to deal with them. What would others think of our Cheng Clan?
In the future, who would dare to speak the truth in the Cheng Clan? "Cheng Yu said with dissatisfaction.
"Patriarch is right, it was this subordinate who did not consider it thoroughly and almost ruined the Cheng Clan's reputation" Zhou Heng reacted and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He felt that he had indeed been thoughtless.
If Ling Yang had only said a few words and the Cheng Clan had brought people to capture them, it would indeed cause panic in the city.
If they did not dare to speak easily in the city, then in the future, no one would dare to come to the various cities of the Cheng Clan.
He knew that the Patriarch had always hoped to develop the Cheng Clan and attract more people to the various cities.
If he was allowed to do this, and the city ended up declining, then his sin would be too great.
"It's good that you understand. Since these people came to the Cheng Clan for another purpose, not only do you have to let them out of the city, you also can't let these people kill them.
If they really die here, how are we going to capture them? "Cheng Yu said.
"Patriarch is right, this subordinate understands" Zhou Heng felt the pressure that the Patriarch gave him and immediately felt his entire body turn cold.
At this moment, Ling Yang, Li Yun and a dozen others finally chose to compromise and kneeled down in front of everyone present.
There was no other way, they had too few people. No matter how dissatisfied they were, they didn't dare to really provoke these people and fight again.
If they really had this kind of strength, they wouldn't have lost the battle just now.
"Apologize. Apologize. "Although they had knelt down, these people didn't say anything. The people present started to jeer again.
"Apologize. Apologize. "
Ling Yang lowered his head, but everyone could still see the anger on his face. They could also see the great resistance in their hearts.
However, no one cared about this, as long as these people knelt down and apologized.
"Right. I can't." Ling Yang said while gnashing his teeth.
"Louder, so many of us didn't hear it" Someone outside the stage shouted.
"I'm sorry" Ling Yang's face was filled with anger as he raised his head and said loudly.
"What about you guys?" Lu Yi shouted at Li Yun and the others.
"I'm sorry" Li Yun and the others also had ashen faces as they said loudly.
This was undoubtedly an extreme humiliation for them. They felt that they had never been so embarrassed in their lives.
However, people under the eaves had no choice but to lower their heads.
"That's it?" Lu Yi continued.
"We have already apologized, what else do you want?" Ling Yang said angrily.
"Is this the attitude of an apology? You are now taking responsibility for what you said! "Lu Yi shouted.
"You … you are ruthless, you will regret it!" Ling Yang said while gnashing his teeth.
"Cut the crap. If you are not willing to apologize, we can just fight again. However, this time I will not be lenient! "Lu Yi said disdainfully.
"Alright! I admit it! I, Ling Yang, will take responsibility for what I did. I apologize to everyone in Yungui City for what I said before. I'm sorry! Is this okay? "Ling Yang endured the humiliation. Of course, he knew that he couldn't fight anymore.
If that was the case, then what was the point of him kneeling now?
"That's more like it!" Lu Yi smiled in satisfaction.
"Then can we leave now?" Ling Yang asked.
"Compared to you guys, I care more about promises. Since you have already knelt down and apologized to everyone in the city, I will naturally not make things difficult for you.
However, I hope you will be smarter in the future. If it was someone else, you will not have the chance to turn over a new leaf next time. "Teng Fei said calmly.
"Hmph! Let's go! "Ling Yang left with a pale face.
