Yang Yilong said, "Qin Qing is alive and well, currently recuperating. She is a very important person to , and I will take full responsibility. You can rest assured."
"Am I supposed to rest assured?"
Unable to hold back any longer, Lin Yue directly pointed out, "If you really wanted to treat Qin Qing, you would have contacted the major dical companies a long ti ago and drawn up a treatnt plan. But I’ve been here for three days and haven’t seen anyone from any dical companies coming in or out. Yang Yilong, have you given up on treating Qin Qing and are planning to save the money designated for hunting the extraordinary creature for your cultivation? Let tell you, even if you don’t pay for Qin Qing’s treatnt, she can treat herself. She has a right to half of the money from the hunt. Are you planning to swallow that money whole?"
"Enough." Yang Yilong suddenly yelled, causing a buzzing sound in everyone’s ears.
"Lin Yue, I have given you a lot of face already. If you keep this up, don’t bla for being rude."
Lin Yue said, "The matter between Qin Qing and you is none of my business; after all, it’s a private issue between the two of you, and I have no right to interfere. But I am involved in the deal between you and Li Yi, and you must give a clear answer. Don’t try to fudge it."
"Fine, since you want an explanation, here it is." Having said that, Yang Yilong picked up the phone and said, "Xiao Xu, go to my room and bring over the latest suitcase that arrived."
After speaking, he looked towards Lin Yue, "You want ten billion, and I can’t produce that amount at the mont, but I can give you sothing else that is worth no less than ten billion. From now on, this matter will be settled and I will have no further involvent with Li Yi’s boxing techniques."
"Don’t think I don’t understand your plan. By learning these boxing techniques, you could sell them and the profits would exceed ten billion. Either way, it’s Li Yi who loses out." Lin Yue huffed, "But rember Yang Yilong, don’t go too far when dealing with people. Today Li Yi and I are in a weaker position and will take this hidden loss, but if the situation reverses, don’t bla us for not showing any rcy."
"I’ve always believed my actions to be just; it’s you who has gone too far." Yang Yilong retorted as the item arrived, "Here’s the item, now take it and go. You’re not welco here anymore."
At that mont, the manager, Xu Ming, had taken the elevator down, holding a suitcase in his hand.
"I’ll leave when I want to. Did you think I wanted to stay here? But I need to check whether the item you’ve given is worth the money." Lin Yue imdiately took the suitcase from Xu Ming’s hand, opened it, and her expression darkened at once.
Inside the suitcase was just a piece of clothing.
"This is a garnt made from the skin of a Qiu Dragon. It’s warm in the winter, cool in the sumr, and very tough. It’s bulletproof and there are only a few like it in the whole world," Yang Yilong explained.
Lin Yue’s expression darkened imdiately, and she burst out, "Nonsense, no matter what, a piece of clothing cannot possibly be worth ten billion, even if it is made from the skin of a Qiu Dragon! This thing is nothing but an impractical luxury item, only soone idle and bored like you would bother customizing such a garnt. Li Yi has just started his cultivation journey, he needs money, resources, not a piece of clothing."
"The item has been given to you, we are even now. Miss Lin, please leave now," Yang Yilong said coldly, signaling that she could leave.
"Yang Yilong, I truly didn’t expect you to be this kind of person," Lin Yue said, now furious yet smiling. "Normally, you pretend to be decent, but when it cos to your own significant interests, you can’t control your true nature, becoming increasingly shaless without any limits. It’s just short of putting ’robbery’ right on your face..."
But before she could finish,
The next mont,
A booming sound suddenly erupted under Yang Yilong’s feet, and then his figure disappeared from the spot.
Lin Yue’s eyes suddenly narrowed as she instinctively raised her arm to defend.
A punch ca smashing towards her.
Fist Power exploded, a dull sound resonating in the training field.
Lin Yue was blown back several ters, finally managing to catch her footing, but her forearm had fractured under the impact of the punch.
"Lin Yue, I warned you before; if you keep this up, I won’t be nice," Yang Yilong now stood with his hands behind his back, a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, and a trace of white rainbow montarily seen around him. "This punch was just a lesson. Don’t push to draw the sword condensation. Now take the item and leave; this is your final warning."
Facing such humiliation, Lin Yue felt both anger and outrage. She wanted to explode but ultimately suppressed her anger forcefully.
At that mont, she understood Li Yi’s situation back then.
In a situation where one is weaker, showing weakness is the wisest choice, no wonder Li Yi dared not make any requests and had to offer his boxing techniques for free to escape unscathed.
Coming openly to negotiate and ending up in such a plight, if it were Li Yi, he would have definitely been killed already.
"Yang Yilong, from today onwards, our grudge is officially settled," Lin Yue gritted her teeth, picked up the suitcase, and walked out without looking back.
She knew that if she didn’t take the clothes with her today, she would leave empty-handed.
"Since we are already enemies, why bother giving her anything? Just kill her and save the trouble later. If you can’t do it, I will," a middle-aged man nad Yang Ye walked out from the other side as soon as Lin Yue left.
"Lin Yue is no ordinary person. Not only does she hold a significant position in the Cultivator Association, but her teacher’s status is also extraordinary. It is precisely because of this that I was willing to compromise. If it were anyone else approaching with such an attitude, I would have killed them long ago," Yang Yilong remained calm, standing with his hands behind his back, "But I never expected she would stand up for that Li Yi. It seems their relationship is quite special."
"I have always said it, control Li Yi, do not let him leave before he learns the boxing techniques. Yilong, morality is for show to outsiders, a true great achiever has to be ruthless," Yang Ye said, showing so dissatisfaction.
"Now that Lin Yue has intervened, the nature of the problem has changed. This ends the issue with the boxing techniques. She took so compensation, and she no longer has a reason to trouble . I need to devote all my ti, energy, and resources to cultivation, becoming a Cross-border is the priority," Yang Yilong stated.
Yang Ye said, "What about that Li Yi? This kid must hold a grudge against us, and he might seek revenge in the future."
"Forcibly taking soone’s boxing techniques and being resented for it is normal. If he swallows this grievance, so be it. But if he foolishly cos seeking trouble, I will take care of him," Yang Yilong spoke very calmly, yet his words conveyed strong confidence.
"That’s right, you have to be ruthless when necessary," Yang Ye nodded in agreent.
Soon.
Lin Yue, with her injury, took a car and left Yang Yilong’s residence with the suitcase.
In the car, she touched the broken bone in her arm, sweating from the pain, but then she realized sothing else.
"Indeed, Yang Yilong’s Fist Power is not refined enough, it’s passable against , but it would show its shortcomings against a true master. If it had been Li Yi who struck, my arm wouldn’t have broken, but would have been left with a crushing Fist Mark... Yang Yilong, you can enjoy practicing boxing now, but you will know that taking shortcuts will lead to big losses," Lin Yue thought.
"However, I was also at fault this ti. I overestimated myself, thinking that with my status and my teacher’s background, I could take the Guiding Skill from Yang Yilong for Li Yi. How am I going to explain this situation to Li Yi now?"
Afterward, Lin Yue felt a wave of sha.
She felt she had let Li Yi down, blaming herself for recomnding this job to him, which led to so many subsequent issues.
But soon, Lin Yue thought of another solution.
That was to obtain a Guiding Skill through another way and give it to Li Yi, fulfilling her promise that day.
"That’s the only way, but before that, I need to visit Li Yi and see how the investigative bureau is going to deal with him," Lin Yue thought.
Lin Yue took several deep breaths, calming the resentnt and anger in her heart.
Her issues with Yang Yilong can wait for another opportunity; the current priority is to ensure Li Yi is alright.
