"Elder Bu, when do you think we should hold the duel between Yangming and Bu Chengjiang?" Ling Dong asked the Bu Family's Grand Elder, Bu Yuanqing, as he laid out the plan.
However, Bu Yuanqing, the elders of the Bu Family, and Bu Chengjiang, the successor whom the elders favored, did not react to Ling Dong's ultimatum. Instead, they were all staring at Ling Dong with their eyes wide open.
Their eyes were filled with a small mountain of shiny mid-grade Reiki!
It was not that they had never seen a mid-grade Reiki before, but the wealth of 10,000 pieces of mid-grade Reiki was too terrifying. Not only did the Bu Clan members widen their eyes, but even the guests who were watching the ceremony also widened their eyes, revealing a fanatical expression.
"Ten thousand Middle-grade Spiritual Crystals were given to Yang Ming just like that …" Bu Yuanqing murmured with a shocked and complicated expression.
As the Bu Family's Grand Elder and the person in charge of the Bu Family, Bu Yuanqing knew the Bu Family's income and assets too well! With the Bu Family's strength, they did not have the qualifications or ability to occupy the Reiki mine. They could only earn Reiki by opening shops related to herbs, pills, formations, and talismans.
Moreover, with the Bu Family's strength, they were only engaged in the most basic of all trades. It was difficult for them to get involved in high-end goods. Therefore, the Bu Family's total net profit was only 80,000 to 90,000 pieces of low-grade Reiki.
It was 80,000 to 90,000 pieces of low-grade Reiki, which was equivalent to 800 to 900 pieces of mid-grade Reiki. Ling Dong casually gave away 10,000 pieces of mid-grade Reiki to his brother for cultivation.
That was an amount that the entire Bu Family could not earn even if they worked hard for ten years. Moreover, the Bu Family's total assets were only this amount, and that was under the condition that they had a lot of real estate!
However, Bu Yangming had obtained such a huge amount of wealth so easily. It was hard not to be shocked.
Looking at the mountain of mid-grade Reiki, which was equivalent to ten years of the Bu Family's net income, Bu Yuanqing's mind had been in a dilemma ever since Ling Dong threw out the extremely valuable Precious Weapon of Heaven and Earth and the two high-grade Precious Weapons of Heaven and Earth. Finally, there was an outcome!
From the looks of it, there were only benefits to giving up on Bu Chengjiang. As long as Bu Yangming ascended to the position and became the Young Patriarch, the astonishing wealth would belong to the Family.
"Elder Bu, what's wrong with you guys? Why are you in a daze? When do you think the final battle between Yangming and Bu Chengjiang will be held? Give me a definite answer! "
Seeing that Bu Yuanqing and the others did not respond, Ling Dong urged them again. At the same time, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly and he said, "However, I hope that you can give Yang Ming three or four days. I have to teach him a few Secret Skills. I will definitely help him win and prove his strength!"
Ling Dong's continuous urging had awakened the Bu Family from their shock. Everyone, including Bu Yuanqing and Bu Chengjiang, understood the implication of Ling Dong's words.
In any case, Ling Dong would try his best to let Bu Yangming win in the final Battle of Strength between Bu Yangming and Bu Chengjiang. Normally, most people wouldn't believe their threats.
However, after Ling Dong's series of gifts of the highest grade Precious Weapons of Heaven and Earth, elixirs, and mid-grade Reiki, which was equivalent to the entire Bu Family's assets, all the guests of the Bu Family realized one thing!
As long as Ling Dong wanted, as long as Ling Dong was willing, he could let Bu Yangming defeat Bu Chengjiang in the final Battle. The difference of three stages in cultivation could be completely made up.
In other words, under normal circumstances, no matter how hard Bu Chengjiang worked, he would only be defeated by Bu Yangming.
The battle had not yet started, but the outcome had already been decided!
Many guests at the scene had this strange thought in their minds at the same time. However, more of them were greedy and fanatical. Some warriors might not be able to obtain 10,000 mid-grade Reiki even after decades of hard work. Looking at Ling Dong pouring out a mountain of mid-grade Reiki without any hesitation, many people's eyes gradually turned red!
When their eyes turned red, their hearts turned black.
The moment their greedy eyes gradually revealed their intentions, the four Star Realm Wu De of True Gang Sect who came with Ling Dong released their Qi and murderous Qi without hesitation, faintly protecting the mountain of mid-grade Reiki.
However, sometimes greed could make people lose themselves. Dozens of pairs of eyes looked at each other with the intention of joining forces.
Just as the chaotic battle was about to break out, Ling Dong's eyelids suddenly lifted as his Spirit's eyes abruptly opened. His Spirit's eyes instantly overlapped with a pair of eyes that were as bright as the stars in the sky. A terrifying gaze that could shoot straight into one's Spirit instantly swept out.
The moment this terrifying gaze filled with killing intent was shot out, the temperature in the hall seemed to have dropped by more than ten degrees, causing everyone to shiver. As for the cultivators who were swept by Ling Dong's terrifying gaze, their hearts began to beat wildly. The moment extreme fear surged into their hearts, the redness in their eyes began to fade!
Since Ling Dong had thrown out such an astronomical amount of Reiki for ordinary warriors, he had already considered this situation.
"Yangming, what are you waiting for? These Reiki are for your future cultivation. Quickly take it!" Ling Dong urged Bu Yangming. The latter was stunned and immediately took the mountain of mid-grade Reiki.
After such an eye-catching pile of mid-grade Reiki was taken away, the people in the hall turned their attention back to the matter. Ling Dong's gaze also fell on Bu Yuanqing. "Elder Bu, what do you think?"
"This … Young Master Ling has spoken. The time of the final battle can be postponed a few days later, but … but …" Bu Yuanqing stuttered. It was quite difficult for him to change his stance in front of so many people.
However, if Bu Chengjiang, whom they supported, was defeated by Bu Yangming in the final battle a few days later, it would be even more humiliating!
Therefore, Bu Yuanqing was in a dilemma at this time. He did not know how to smooth things over.
However, at this time, a shocking accident occurred.
"No … Great Elder, I … I don't want to fight. I can't defeat Yangming. I admit defeat. I admit defeat!" Bu Chengjiang, who had been scared out of his wits by Ling Dong's Godly Soul Attack, suddenly lost the courage to continue after witnessing Ling Dong's awe-inspiring power and the vague threat!
However, everyone knew that Bu Chengjiang's sudden loss of courage had something to do with Ling Dong's previous attack and the subsequent threat.
"You! Shame on you! "
"Slap!"
Bu Yuanqing and the Bu Family Patriarch's faces darkened when they heard that Bu Chengjiang had taken the initiative to admit defeat in front of so many people. Great Elder Bu, who had slapped Bu Yuanqing, began to tremble with his hand.
This was so shameful that it was as if he had thrown away all his face. What little concealment he had left had been completely torn apart. Of course, this situation also had something to do with the Bu Clan Patriarchs.
It was their fault for coveting the clan's power and supporting a puppet who was not good in other aspects except for his cultivation base. Now, they were scared out of their wits by Ling Dong's awe-inspiring power.
Bu Chengjiang, who had been slapped, did not defend himself. He only covered his face with his hands and looked like he was about to cry. He finally understood that if he really angered this Master Ling in front of him, it would be a piece of cake for him to take his life.
If he really died, the Elders in the clan might not dare to ask for an explanation on his behalf. That was why he had such an idea.
Who said that he was stupid?
"Uh … This is difficult. Since the other party has admitted defeat, doesn't that mean my brother Yangming has won before the fight? Elder Bu, don't you think so? "Ling Dong was amused by Bu Chengjiang's straightforward attitude. Ling Dong suddenly realized that Bu Chengjiang was not stupid.
"This … this … Since Chengjiang has admitted defeat, it means that Yangming has won …" Bu Yuanqing was extremely upset when he said this result. It was not scary to be slapped in the face by others, but to be slapped in the face by one's own people, anyone who had been slapped would know the feeling!
Ling Dong, however, did not let Bu Yuanqing go. "Elder Bu, since Yangming has won, it means that Yangming's strength is far superior to Bu Chengjiang's. According to the agreement between Sect Leader Shi and you, the position of Young Clan Leader will belong to Yangming!"
Hearing Ling Dong's judgment, Bu Yangming smiled bitterly and admired him. Brother Ling was too awesome. As the person involved, he did not even throw a punch. With just a few glances and a few things, Brother Ling had won the position of Young Clan Leader for him. Awesome, this was just too awesome!
While feeling happy, Bu Yangming looked at the Elders of the Bu Clan on the opposite side with a pensive look on his face.
The guests who were watching the ceremony were all amazed. Some of them even secretly gave Ling Dong a thumbs up. Ling Dong's method was amazing. Without using a knife or a spear, he had won the position of Young Clan Leader in the time it took to drink a cup of tea. They could only admire him!
Hearing Ling Dong's inquiry, Bu Yuanqing was extremely depressed. He had planned to do a good job and do Ling Dong a favor. He did not expect that before he could do that, the position of Young Clan Leader had already been taken away.
However, it was not too late now!
With a thick face, Bu Yuanqing cupped his hands and said, "Indeed, Yangming should be the Young Clan Leader. Young Master Ling, today is the auspicious day. Since all the friends of the Bu Clan are here, why don't we hold the ceremony for Yangming to be promoted to Young Clan Leader? What do you think? "
"Okay, that's what I meant."
When Ling Dong was about to clap his hands and agree, a voice of objection came from behind Ling Dong. "No, I object!"
When everyone saw who it was, they were stunned. The voice of objection actually came from Bu Yangming, who had just been confirmed as the Young Clan Leader.
"Brother Ling, Elders, I don't want to be the Young Clan Leader, and I don't want to be the Young Clan Leader. You should choose someone else!" Bu Yangming said loudly.
"Ah?" When Ling Dong heard this, he was greatly surprised. On the other hand, the old faces of Bu Yuanqing and Great Elder Bu suddenly became as black as the bottom of a pot.
The expressions of the guests who were watching the ceremony in the hall also became unusually interesting at this moment!
