Chapter 155: Chapter 16 Compensation
“Shut up!”
Ling Buyang slapped Xu Xin across the face, causing him to spin around several times.
This was the greatest blunder of his life, which he had barely managed to conceal. Now you ask him to announce it in public, do you want to kill me?
“Lord, I just couldn't stand him speaking to you like that…”
Xu Xin looked utterly confused.
How did helping to speak end up with getting hit?
“If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!”
With a cold sneer, Ling Buyang steadied his emotions and then looked at the fat man before him, “Since you could accompany Young Master Zhang in the trial, you must be a person of some status, surely not someone who would recklessly spread unverified and evidence-lacking information! By then, not only would damaging my reputation be a trifling matter, but causing my Mo Dao lineage to lose face wouldn't be very nice, would it?”
True to form as a seasoned Fate Master, he knew he was in a disadvantaged position and immediately shifted the topic to the Mo Dao lineage.
The implication was simple, the things you are saying are unfounded and once you speak them, you will offend this power. I am a small character so it doesn't matter, but offending a faction of the Mandate will surely lead to a crazy backlash, even if you are from a noble family, you might not end well.
Realizing his intent, Sun Qiang gave a slight smile, lifted his eyelid, and didn't reply, but his tone carried a hint of scorn, “You are awesome!”
Unexpectedly, after hearing such words, Ling Buyang trembled with anger, his teeth clenched, “I not only represent the Mo Dao lineage but am also a Fate Master of Heaven Mandate Hall…”
Sun Qiang nodded, “You exploded!”
Ling Buyang's face flushed, and it took him a long while to exhale, “Fine, I admit this matter was handled without proper investigation on my part! However, whether Zhang Xuan is the master, whether the trial was happening, that's just one side of the story, I will still investigate…”
Sun Qiang nodded, “Feel free to investigate. As long as you do, I will keep saying how awesome you are!”
“You!”
Ling Buyang, “Can't we avoid being so vulgar, always saying these things?”
“Of course we can!”
Sun Qiang, “You are true to your name.”
The world grew dark before him, and Ling Buyang clutched his forehead, “I apologize, I was misled by others today…”
Hearing their conversation, Xu Xin couldn't help himself, what does being misled by others imply? If he follows that reasoning, wouldn't that ruin him? After all, the news about the Mandate Chaos Master was passed by him.
Thinking this, he hastily said, “Lord Ling, he's been praising you all this time, it shows he is feeling guilty, why admit your mistake…”
“Praising me?”
Ling Buyang almost spat out blood.
“Yes, that fat man has actually been praising you all this time… awesome!” Liu Tianzheng also chimed in urgently.
They had all heard, the other party kept saying “exploded” and “awesome” – though it sounded vulgar, it was indeed praise, wasn't it! How did it end up causing anger?
Was his temperament so volatile?
“All of you shut up!”
Ling Buyang felt his scalp go numb as these two guys chatted, and he felt like dying.
What the other said was not an adjective, but a damn noun!
Knowing he couldn't voice this, Ling Buyang gritted his teeth, suppressed his inner fury, and clasped his hands in a salute, “Sir, my actions today were rash, I take my leave!”
After speaking, he gestured with a grand wave, “Let's go!”
If before he had thought about using Zhang Xuan as a token for his promotion, now he wouldn't dare even if he were killed.
The fat man before him had no bottom line, if he dared to continue babbling, he would definitely spread the matter causing a huge scandal.
“Rash? Just a rash and that's it?”
This time, before Sun Qiang could even speak, Zhang Xuan suddenly intervened, his eyes cold, “You hurt my disciples, forced them to kneel, you think you can just leave and that's the end of it?”
“What do you mean, Young Master Zhang?”
Ling Buyang stopped and frowned.
“Apologize to them!”
Zhang Xuan pointed at the three disciples in front of him.
“Are you joking, Young Master Zhang?”
Ling Buyang's eyes narrowed, “I am a formal Fate Master, a high and mighty figure, while they are but a group of students with hardly any cultivation! Apologize to them, is it fitting?”
“Teacher, it's not necessary, we haven't been greatly hurt…”
“Yeah, it's not necessary…”
Not expecting their teacher to be so enraged, Yu Xiaoyu and the others were touched but also knew that if it really happened, it would completely offend the other party, so they hurriedly spoke to dissuade him.
Not only these three, but also Yu Longqing and Lu Mingrong stood stunned.
Lord Ling from the Heaven Mandate Hall personally intervened, they thought this man was inescapable doom, they kindly ran to tip him off, only hoping to let him escape, they never imagined the opponent would be so fierce… not only unharmed but also intending to make him apologize!
How was that accomplished?
What exactly did Sun Qiang say to him?
“Whether it's necessary or not isn't for you to decide!”
Zhang Xuan's voice wasn't loud, yet it carried an unmatched dominance and strength, “If you make a mistake, you must apologize, that's the rule and an eternal truth!”
“You…”
Ling Buyang was about to explode with anger, but he also knew that before clarifying the opponent's real identity, it was temporarily inconvenient to be adversarial, so he took a deep breath, “I was misled by others, I made a decision without thorough investigation and hurt your students, I am willing to make amends!”
After speaking, he turned to Xu Xin, “Didn't I ask you to bring the three Destiny Plates, what are you waiting for, give them to Teacher Zhang now!”
“This…”
Lord Xu's mouth twitched, “The Destiny Plates… have already been given to him!”
Ling Buyang was also stunned, “All of them?”
Those were three Destiny Plates, worth several millions, just handed over so freely… Was he that generous?
“Yes…” Lord Xu said, dying of embarrassment.
Having just arrived for three days, and because he thought he was dealing with a Mandate Chaos Master, he had already lost over ten million Origin Currency…
Without the Destiny Plates, Ling Buyang had no choice but to look again at the young man not far from him, “Young Master Zhang, I will send a message back to the Heaven Mandate Hall right now to get it sorted, don't worry, I will not renege on a promise.”
“Is an apology really that difficult?” Zhang Xuan frowned.
Ling Buyang was also getting angry, “What if I insist on not apologizing?”
“You will apologize!”
Tired of the nonsense, Zhang Xuan took a deep breath, stepped forward, and the power at the peak of the Jade Bone Realm coursed through him, bringing him in front of the other in the blink of an eye.
The apology was just a pretext. Since it had come to blows, he had to quash his arrogance with one strike, to fully confirm his identity, otherwise, he would remain a threat.
“Courting death!”
Lord Xu didn't expect this fellow, who had no cultivation just a few days ago, to dare attack a Fate Master of such stature, and he leapt into action.
The responsibility of a Life Guardian was to protect the Fate Master. If Lord Ling got injured with him around, it would be his greatest fault—light punishment would be death, severe would be execution on the spot.
Boom!
As soon as Lord Xu made a move, his strength was revealed. His whole skeleton resonated, and the surrounding air was struck, producing a series of sonic booms.
He had reached the peak of the Jade Bone Realm, just like Zhang Xuan!
Such strength, in Baiyan City, was definitely considered at the pinnacle, even surpassing Liu Tianzheng.
“Be careful, Teacher Zhang…”
Yu Longqing and Lu Mingrong were both startled.
They knew his strength. Although it had improved rapidly, it was still far from the peak of the Jade Bone Realm.
“To make Lord Ling apologize, I'll let you know now what 'the sky's the limit' truly means!”
With a cold laugh, Lord Xu flipped his palm and swung it down towards the young man before him.
The cultivation of the peak of the Jade Bone Realm burst forth. His massive strength, like an inverted millstone or a hammer, crashed down. Before even reaching his opponent, it gave a searing sensation like tearing skin.
Facing his battle technique, Zhang Xuan didn't dodge but met it with a punch.
“This guy is finished…”
Seeing Lord Xu not holding back, Liu Tianzheng's eyes flashed.
He had fought with him two days ago, and although he had been sent flying consecutively, the other had merely relied on skills. His real strength was much weaker than him.
Therefore, he definitely couldn't match Lord Xu, and defeat was inevitable with the latter's full-force strike.
Just as he thought the other would definitely be severely injured, the imposing Lord Xu suddenly “Bang!” flew backward, blood spraying wildly while he was still in mid-air.
With no technique involved, just a direct confrontation, Lord Xu had actually lost!
“This…”
He wasn't the only one shocked; Ling Buyang's pupils also sharply contracted.
Actually, he could have stopped Lord Xu just now, but he had let him make his move to take the opportunity to gauge Zhang Xuan's strength.
Now, he finally saw it clearly.
Peak of the Jade Bone Realm, 99 horsepower!
To have such strength at barely twenty years old, his talent must be remarkable, and the power behind him feared as much.
No wonder he didn't regard him, having such capability.
“Alright, I apologize!”
Taking a deep breath, Ling Buyang slowly spoke.
Seeing his agreement, Zhang Xuan knew his goal had been achieved and did not pursue further.
Although he had reached the peak of the Jade Bone Realm, Burning New World, and could unleash even greater strength, he also knew that facing a Primordial Spirit realm expert did not guarantee a hundred percent certainty of victory.
Especially since the other's Mo Dao power had yet to be unleashed.
Ling Buyang turned to face Yu Xiaoyu, Liu Mingyue, and Hong Yi, clasping his fists in apology, “I'm sorry, the three of you, it was my rashness that insulted you. I, Ling Buyang, sincerely apologize here!”
“Just moving your mouth, huh?” Sun Qiang snorted coldly.
“Lord Xu!”
With a twitching eyelid, Ling Buyang called out.
“Yes!”
Struggling to his feet, Lord Xu walked over, took out a stack of Origin Notes from his pocket, and handed them over. Ling Buyang took them, glanced at them to confirm the amount, and handed them to Yu Xiaoyu, “This is 300,000 Origin Currency, as an expression of my earlier apology…”
“This…”
Yu Xiaoyu blinked rapidly, looking hurriedly towards her teacher nearby, seemingly waiting for his decision.
Even though she was the city lord's daughter, she had never seen so much money at once…
“Take it!”
Zhang Xuan waved his hand, his back to Ling Buyang, “Don't let it happen again, get lost!”
