Ling Zhen's home, Moon on the Sea Manor!
"What did you say?" A bald fatty glared at Ling Zhen as he spat out each word forcefully. ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ Little ↓ ↓ Speak.
"Xiao Xiao, she, she really isn't in Lingnan now. She, she really, really left the country!" Ling Zhen's heart pounded violently under the gaze of the bald fatty. He swallowed his saliva and spoke carefully.
"Left the country? Really? "The bald fatty stood up and stood in front of Ling Zhen with a cold smile on his face.
"Yes, yes!" Ling Zhen hurriedly stood up. His heart tightened as he replied.
"How dare you lie to me? Do you have a death wish?" The bald fatty roared. Then, he kicked Ling Zhen away.
Ling Zhen's body slammed into the wall with a loud bang. When he landed on the ground, he knocked over a huge flower vase that was far away from the wall. The vase fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
"Cough, cough!"
Ling Zhen struggled to get up. He supported his upper body with his hands and smiled bitterly at the bald fatty. "Third Young Master Ma, why are you doing this?"
"Why?" The bald fatty sneered. "Do you really think that I don't know anything?"
"Before yesterday, Ling Xiaoxiao was always at home. Now that I'm here, you're telling me that she left the country?"
"Are you treating me like a fool?"
"I, I didn't!" Ling Zhen coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood. He lay there and said weakly, "Xiaoxiao left last night. She left in a hurry, so …"
"That's enough, Ling Zhen. You don't have to lie!" The bald fatty walked over and squatted down. He grabbed Ling Zhen by the back of his neck and lifted him up. He sneered. "Speak. Where did you hide Ling Xiaoxiao? "
"I've been busy for the past two years. That's why I didn't look for you!"
"And you're quite capable too. You actually hid Ling Xiaoxiao so well that my people couldn't find her no matter how hard they tried. Even this time, my men didn't find her. Ling Xiaoxiao disappeared! "
"Not bad. You're quite capable, aren't you?"
"But now, I'm finally done with my business. I'm not going to waste any more words with you. I'm here personally to ask you for him, and you're still not willing to give me face? "
"I'll give you one last chance. Where is Ling Xiaoxiao?"
"Xiao Xiao, she … she really left the country!" Ling Zhen's eyes flashed with a hint of panic as he forced himself to speak.
"Really? Looks like I really need to use some methods to make you tell me the truth! " The bald fatty laughed sinisterly. Then, he tightened his grip on the back of Ling Zhen's head, causing Ling Zhen's breathing to quicken. His face turned purple.
"I'm giving you face, but you don't want it. Don't blame me for killing you!" The bald fatty laughed sinisterly.
Ling Zhen smiled bitterly and closed his eyes in resignation.
Right at this moment!
Outside the door, a black-clothed old man walked in.
"Ma Dongkun, Ling Zhen is Lord Qi Bei Feng's man. Do you dare to kill him?" The black-clothed old man said indifferently.
"Oh?" The bald fatty raised his eyebrows and laughed coldly. "If he's Lord Qi's man, I wouldn't even dare to lay a finger on him. But do you think I don't know?"
"He's just one of Lord Qi's many servants. Usually, he's just running errands for Lord Qi and collecting information. Do you really think Lord Qi cares about him that much? "
"You have to look at the owner before beating a dog!" The black-clothed old man said indifferently. "No matter what, Ling Zhen is Lord Qi's man. If you dare to kill him, you'll be embarrassing Lord Qi. Perhaps Lord Qi won't say anything, but his men will definitely tear you to pieces and use you to claim credit! "
"Huang Zhi, stop trying to scare me. Do you think I'll fall for that? " The bald fatty laughed coldly. However, his eyes still revealed a tinge of seriousness as he released Ling Zhen.
After Ling Zhen was released, he knelt there and couldn't stand up. He lowered his head and his pale face revealed a tinge of joy.
He knew that Third Young Master Ma was coming today, so he specially informed the black-clothed old man to come. Now that the black-clothed old man was finally here, Third Young Master Ma was indeed worried and didn't dare to kill him.
"Ma Dongkun, I don't want to go against you!" The black-clothed old man looked at the bald fatty and sighed. "But I have no choice. Ling Zhen and I are on good terms, so I can only apologize to you!"
"You're on good terms? Bah! "The bald fatty laughed coldly." Who doesn't know that you, Huang Zhi, are famous for being greedy? You have friends? Don't joke around. I'm afraid that Ling Zhen paid a huge price for you to be here, right? "
"That's none of your business!" The black-clothed old man said indifferently.
"I can't be bothered!" The bald fatty said coldly. "Anyway, you'd better get out of my way today. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"No!" The black-clothed old man said indifferently.
"You!" The bald fatty's eyes were burning with anger, but he didn't dare to act recklessly.
Although the black-clothed old man was greedy, his strength was undeniable. At the very least, the bald fatty was definitely no match for him. If he acted recklessly, he would only be humiliating himself.
There was a moment of silence!
The bald fatty suddenly opened his mouth and said seriously to the black-clothed old man, "Huang Zhi, how about we make a deal?"
"Speak!" The black-clothed old man said indifferently.
"As long as you promise that you won't interfere in this matter, I can lend you the manual of Six Joint Fist. How about that?" The bald fatty said in a deep voice.
"Six Joint Fist?" The black-clothed old man's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Give me a word. Yes or no?" The bald fatty raised his voice.
"If you really keep your promise, yes!" The black-clothed old man nodded slowly.
"Don't worry. I, Third Young Master Ma, always keep my word. How about you come to my place tomorrow?" The bald fatty said.
"Alright!" The black-clothed old man nodded.
At this moment, Ling Zhen, who was at the side, was stunned!
In order to invite the black-clothed old man, as the bald fatty had said, he had spent a huge sum of money to invite the black-clothed old man over. However, he didn't expect the black-clothed old man to go back on his word right in front of him. There wasn't the slightest bit of trust to speak of.
The bald fatty seemed to have noticed the astonishment in Ling Zhen's eyes. He shook his head and smiled, "Alright, you don't have to be surprised. Let's not talk about how he is!"
"Moreover, I'm afraid you really don't know how we cultivators look at ordinary people like you!"
"In our eyes, ordinary people like you are not much different from ants. Why do we need to talk about trust and promises with you?"
"There's no need for that!"
"We are people from two different worlds, do you understand?"
"Ants, people from two different worlds!" Ling Zhen's face instantly revealed a bitter smile.
Previously, he had always felt that cultivators were full of arrogance and disdain for ordinary people. However, at this moment, he truly felt the status of ordinary people like himself!
Lowly like ants!
So that was it!
"Alright, consider yourself lucky today. I'll let you live for now. However, I'll be back in two days. At that time, if I don't see Ling Xiaoxiao, I'll kill you with my own hands!" The bald fatty smirked as he patted Ling Zhen's face.
"I'm leaving!"
The bald fatty turned and left.
The black-clothed old man glanced at Ling Zhen indifferently and left as well.
"Two days!"
