Long Zheng Yang had thought that after calling out Tian Ya's name, Ling Chen would at least be moved. However, all Long Zheng Yang could feel from Ling Chen was an icy coldness, and not a trace of emotion. His heart sank … indeed, he had been harmed by the Long family to such an extent, and only felt hatred towards the Long family. How could he have any feelings for them? Long Zheng Yang hurriedly walked forwards as he hurriedly said, "Alright, Ling Tian, Ling Tian, can you listen to me for a bit?"
Ling Chen stopped walking, but did not turn around as he calmly replied, "I don't like to waste time on people I don't care about. I'll give you 30 seconds."
People he didn't care about … Long Zheng Yang bitterly laughed. Who could he blame for being treated like this by his own son? It was all karma, and he had only himself to blame. In this sort of situation, he was unable to say the words he had prepared, and could only bitterly say, "You hate Long Tian Yun to the bones, and I'm sure that you've already found out that he was the one who caused the Isloka Virus, so you hate him even more. I know that you won't be able to forgive him. However, in terms of blood relations, after all … after all … as such, you can punish him however you want, but please don't kill him! "
"That's all?" Hearing Long Zheng Yang's words, Ling Chen's expression remained indifferent, as if he hadn't heard anything at all.
"Thump." The sound of something hitting the ground sounded out from behind Ling Chen. He subconsciously turned around, and saw Long Zheng Yang kneeling on the ground, a pleading look in his eyes.
"You!" Ling Chen's heart jumped, and he instinctively leapt to the side, avoiding where Long Zheng Yang was kneeling. Long Zheng Yang was the current leader of the Long family, and the most powerful person in Hua Xia. He held the most power and authority in Hua Xia, and countless people would kneel to such a person. However, apart from his parents, no one had the right to make him kneel to anyone. His status and dignity did not allow him to kneel to anyone other than his parents.
But now, he knelt down, for his son Long Tianyun, and for his son and himself to repent and atone for his sins. This was something that Ling Chen could never have imagined. At the same time, it made him feel a bit of fear in his heart. Although he had long since disregarded him, in terms of blood relations, he was still his biological father. For his father to kneel in front of him … in terms of human relations, he would be struck by lightning.
A pained expression appeared on Long Zheng Yang's face as he said, "I never thought that apart from my parents, the first person I would kneel to would be my son … it's actually you. However, I deserve to kneel. Long Tianyun made all the mistakes, and I, as his father, cannot escape the blame. I am kneeling on his behalf. Although I can't beg for your forgiveness even if I kneel a thousand times, I beg you to spare his life no matter what. "" That's right. You are right. Although he is evil beyond redemption, everyone knows that he is the successor of the Long Family. If he dies, the impact on society will be immeasurable. Hua Xia's political scene will also be greatly impacted, and the Long Family's reputation will also suffer an unprecedented blow … "
"Promise me three things, and I promise not to kill Long Tianyun! In fact, I won't even make trouble for him! "Ling Chen's breathing was a bit ragged, and he did his best to speak calmly.
Long Zheng Yang raised his head, a look of excitement and joy on his face, "Alright! As long as I can make it up to you, no matter what you want, I'll do my best to fulfill it for you. "
"The first thing is to immediately stand up. I don't need you to kneel!" Ling Chen quickly said as he turned his head. Every second that Long Zheng Yang knelt on the ground made Ling Chen feel even worse.
Long Zheng Yang stared in shock, then slowly stood up, silently looking at Ling Chen's back.
Hearing Long Zheng Yang stand up, Ling Chen let out a sigh of relief, then calmly said, "The second thing is that I want you to acknowledge to all of Hua Xia's players that Ling Tian City is the central city of Hua Xia's players!"
Before, the central city of Hua Xia's players was the Yan Huang Alliance. The Yan Huang Alliance was the one who made decisions on behalf of all of Hua Xia's players. Whenever there was an international war, it was the Yan Huang Alliance that organised it. Ling Chen's request was to take back the Yan Huang Alliance's pride and glory.
"Alright, no problem!" Long Zheng Yang replied without any hesitation. In actuality, as Ling Tian City became more and more powerful, it far surpassed the Yan Huang Alliance in all aspects. The Yan Huang Alliance's' central city 'had long since lost its luster. Even if the Yan Huang Alliance didn't acknowledge it, the 'central city' of Hua Xia's players was Ling Tian City, and not the Yan Huang Alliance.
"The third thing," Ling Chen paused, then slightly raised his head as a strange light flashed in his eyes, "Within an hour, tell Long Tian Yun to come see me in Ling Tian City … oh, forget it, I've changed my mind. Tell him to wait for me at the Yan Huang Alliance's headquarters in 15 minutes. I have some things to say to him. After that, the grievances between us should more or less be written off. In the future, let alone killing him, even if you beg me to kill him, I won't do it. "
Long Zheng Yang stared blankly for a while before saying in disbelief, "Just … that's it?"
He thought that with his hatred towards Long Tian Yun, the three things Long Tian Yun mentioned must be more difficult than reaching the sky. However, he didn't expect that the three things were actually easier than the previous one. It was so easy that he felt it was unreal.
"If you're not satisfied, I'll find an opportunity to kill him and be done with it!" Ling Chen coldly harrumphed.
"No, it's just that this result is much better than what I wanted." Long Zheng Yang slowly shook his head, feeling as if a massive boulder had been lifted from his heart. He believed that since Ling Chen had said these things, he definitely wouldn't go back on his word. Out of the three things he had asked for, the first two didn't even need to be mentioned, and the third was just a meeting in the virtual world. There was no need to worry about him harming Long Tian Yun at all. He realised that it was definitely because he had knelt down … before coming here, he knew that with Ling Chen's hatred towards the Long family, especially Long Tian Yun, normal begging wouldn't work. The only way was to use the most intense and impactful method to shake Ling Chen's heart. As such, in order to protect Long Tian Yun's life, he had chosen to use his status as China's highest official and father to kneel to Ling Chen.
The result was thousands of times better than what he had expected.
"I know that you can't forgive him, and he doesn't have the right to be forgiven by you. However, I thank you on behalf of him and myself for sparing his life. I promise that he won't do anything to harm you or your friends in the future. "
Ling Chen still didn't turn around. "Remember, you only have 15 minutes. If I don't see Long Tian Yun at the Yan Huang Alliance's headquarters in 15 minutes, then I'll pretend that I never said anything. If there's nothing else, then I won't keep you company. Chief Long is in a high position, and I'm sure you don't have much time to waste on a national fugitive like me. "
Long Zheng Yang's expression became bitter as he weakly breathed, "Alright, it's time for me to go. However, there's something I need to tell you. When you were young, I wanted you to know that your mother had died when you were born. But, that is only a lie, your birth mother is still in this world. "
Ling Chen: "… …"
"The Long family has wronged you, and I've made countless mistakes. However, your mother didn't do anything wrong … before you were born, all of the doctors said that if she gave birth to you, her life would be in danger. She had a high status, and her life was more important than anyone else's. Almost no one wanted to see her risk her life to give birth to you. However, despite her gentle personality, she was incredibly unyielding, and insisted on giving birth to you no matter what. Afterwards, you were born, and on the day you were born, she almost died. If it wasn't for the fact that my Long family had a secret technique that no one knows about, she would have died on the day you were born. Although she managed to keep her life, in the next 3 years, she couldn't even get out of bed to walk. Her body was left with an illness that she couldn't get rid of. Even now, whenever it rains or at dusk, her lower limbs will ache unbearably. This sort of torture has lasted for more than 20 years. "
Ling Chen's chest heaved up and down.
"After you were born, you never saw her. It wasn't because she abandoned you, but because of a reason that normal people can't understand, she had no choice but to separate from you. The further the better, otherwise, she could lose her life at any moment."
"What's the reason?" Ling Chen suddenly interjected at this moment.
Long Zheng Yang gave him a deep look, and said helplessly, "You'll definitely find this reason laughable. This is because when you were born, a senior with special abilities said that your fate was extremely inauspicious. Moreover, it was so inauspicious that it had never been seen or heard of before. Your mother's body still contains the aura of inauspiciousness that you left behind. If she was too close to you, she would be affected by your aura and grow, which could take her life. As such, she had to stay as far away from you as possible, until 10 years later, when the aura of inauspiciousness completely dissipated. " Speaking to there, Long Zheng Yang bitterly laughed, "I know that you'll feel that what I've said is laughable and stupid. You're the leader of the Long family, and yet you believe in this sort of so-called fate and aura. However, the person who said these things has extraordinary qualifications and authority, and he has never lied before. For her life, I don't dare to take any risks. "
Ling Chen was speechless for a long time, but his gaze uncontrollably trembled.
Back then, in the Mystic Moon world's Lava Purgatory, he had met the Heaven's Secrets Sect's Sect Master, Daoist Tian Qing. Under Xiao Feng Chen's encouragement, Daoist Tian Qing had read Long Zheng Yang's fortune. However, Daoist Tian Qing's expression had greatly changed, and his forehead had become covered with sweat. His face had become incredibly pale, and he had said that he could no longer read his fortune. Although Long Zheng Yang hadn't pursued the matter, with his intelligence, he could tell that Daoist Tian Qing had definitely seen something, but wasn't willing to tell him.
Afterwards, after Su 'Er had become the Heaven's Secrets Sect's Sect Master, he had jokingly asked Su' Er to read his fate. Of course, Su 'Er wouldn't refuse, and her reaction had been exactly the same as Daoist Tian Qing's. Afterwards, under Long Zheng Yang's insistence, Su 'Er, who wasn't good at lying, had said the words "Inauspicious Fate".
At that time, Long Zheng Yang had simply laughed it off. Su 'Er had also forced a smile, and said that there was no need to take it seriously.
And now, Long Zheng Yang had said the words "Inauspicious Fate". Moreover, it seemed that when he had been born, some mysterious person had read his fate.
"Although your mother left you after that, she still worried about you day and night. Her body, which should have recovered in three to four years, took eight to nine years to recover. She and I have been bitterly waiting for ten years to quickly arrive so that you and your mother can reunite. However, we did not expect that when you were about to turn ten years old, you … After she received the news, she fell seriously ill. From then on, she hated me and the Long family to the bone. Even her temperament changed greatly. I heard that from then on, no one has ever seen her smile again. She did everything she could to revive her family, and forcefully formed an alliance with the Southern Continent. I knew that she did this to deal with the Long family. I felt guilty towards her, and couldn't stop her. Otherwise, how could I have allowed an alliance that could threaten the Long family to continue to exist? The reason why she hated me and the Long family so much is because of the love that mothers have for their children. I can't say that I treated you coldly back then because I had my own difficulties. After all, I was the root of your troubles. However, your mother wasn't wrong. If she knew that you were still alive, I don't know how happy she would be. "
"Her name is … Gu Qing Han."
Ling Chen's breathing paused for a long time. He raised his head and deeply breathed in as he coldly said, "Tell Long Tian Yun to immediately wait for me at the Yan Huang Alliance's headquarters … I only have one chance!"
After speaking, Ling Chen didn't stay and quickly left.
