316: Chapter 316: Cutting Off Someone’s Livelihood 316: Chapter 316: Cutting Off Someone’s Livelihood Then, along with Yan Hedan, several men and women who came with him started shouting…

“Senior Brother Lang, your family is so rich, what’s giving us a few ten thousand Light Crystals to you?”

“Right, a few ten thousand Light Crystals aren’t Ming King Crystals, how stingy.”

“I never thought you were actually like this, you’ve really let us down, we used to respect you so much.”

“Senior Brother Lang, you were just pretending before, weren’t you?”

One cutting remark after another instantly made Lang Yisuo’s face, flushed from drinking, turn even redder.

These were comments he could never have imagined in his dreams.

Then, Yan Hedan said with an utterly heartbroken face, “Lang Yisuo, we have been classmates for three years, don’t you feel ashamed for acting this way?

It seems I can only see you as a selfish ghost from now on, let’s end our friendship.”

“Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go tell more people that Lang Yisuo is a jerk.”

Having said their piece, they prepared to turn around and leave…

Suddenly, Lang Yisuo shouted with held breath, “Wait, I can give you the Light Crystals, but stop slandering me.”

Instantly, Yan Hedan and the others showed eerie and triumphant smiles on their faces.

Yet Sikong Jing was taken aback and grimaced silently.

Yan Hedan turned back, showing again a look of immense gratitude.

“Yisuo, it seems we misunderstood you just now, you really aren’t as selfish as the rumors claim, thank you so much.”

“Just give us a hundred thousand Light Crystals, that’s not too much, right?”

After speaking, although he restrained his smile, the triumph in their eyes was simply uncontrollable.

Unfortunately, Lang Yisuo didn’t notice any of it.

In the end, Yan Hedan and the others took Lang Yisuo’s hundred thousand Light Crystals and left with a thousand thanks.

Lang Yisuo looked at Sikong Jing and sighed, “Seeing how thankful Yan Hedan and the others were, they must really need Light Crystals, I…”

“Senior Brother Lang, come with me!”

Sikong Jing had been silent until now, but at this moment, he coldly interrupted.

Without waiting to see if Lang Yisuo was willing, he directly pulled him and flashed out of the courtyard.

Soon after, the two landed on a big tree hundreds of meters away from the courtyard.

While Lang Yisuo was still puzzled, voices of Yan Hedan and the others who had just left the courtyard could be heard in the distance.

“That idiot Lang Yisuo, now we don’t have to worry about not having Light Crystals to spend anymore.”

As soon as these words came out, Lang Yisuo’s eyes widened, and his body trembled violently.

“Yes, just call Lang Yisuo a selfish ghost and he will give us gleaming Light Crystals.”

“Then, after we insincerely thank him, he’ll be as happy as an idiot.”

“Not just like an idiot, he is a big idiot…

It’s the fool’s fortune that he even managed to break through two Great Realms continuously; looking at him, he probably doesn’t even know how he did it.”

“Who cares how he broke through, even if this fool’s realm is high, it’s useless, he’s still played by us like pawns in the palm of our hand.”

Yan Hedan and the others chatted shoulder to shoulder, sounding unbelievably smug.

Finally, Yan Hedan loudly said, “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, with a hundred thousand Light Crystals we can go enjoy a few good meals in Long Night Imperial City, call a few girls, and since it’s not our own Light Crystals, it doesn’t hurt to splurge at all.”

Boom!

However, just as their words ended, a terrifying aura surged from the big tree in front of them.

Then, a figure drifted down from the tree, it was Lang Yisuo with a livid face.

In an instant, Yan Hedan and the others were stunned, taken aback.

“Yisuo, you, how are you here?” Yan Hedan’s voice trembled.

But Lang Yisuo was so angry he couldn’t speak, his finger trembled as he pointed at them, his face turning red from suppression.

At this moment, Sikong Jing also slowly drifted down from the tree, staring indifferently at Yan Hedan and the others, “If Senior Brother Lang weren’t here, how could he hear you calling him a fool?”

In an instant, Yan Hedan and his men fixed their glaring eyes on him, with murderous fury erupting.

One of them sternly interrogated, “Was it you who brought Yisuo here, you deliberately let him overhear our conversation?”

“Yes!” Sikong Jing replied indifferently.

Immediately, Yan Hedan and his men’s eyes sparked with fire.

They knew Yisuo well enough to understand that he would never eavesdrop on his own.

Unexpectedly, someone had meddled unnecessarily.

Now that they were about to lose their Ming King Crystal, one could only imagine the hatred they harbored for Sikong Jing.

Suddenly, Yisuo shouted forcefully, “Return the Ming King Crystal to me!”

Yan Hedan quickly shifted his gaze from Sikong Jing and stared intently at Yisuo, then suddenly burst into laughter, “Yisuo, we were just joking.

We didn’t really think you were foolish!”

“Return the Ming King Crystal to me!” Yisuo’s eyes were bloodshot as he bellowed.

In an instant, Yan Hedan’s expression cooled, then he shrugged and said, “What if I don’t return it?”

“You…”

Yisuo’s voice instantly choked up; he was too thin-skinned.

Seeing this, Yan Hedan mocked him further, “I won’t return it.

What can you do about it?

Dare you hit me?

Come on, hit me!”

“If you dare to hit me, I damn well dare to lie down.”

“And then I’ll say, Yisuo snatched back the Ming King Crystal he’d lent out, showing his true ruthless nature!”

With that, Yan Hedan burst into loud laughter, looking utterly confident in his control over Yisuo.

Then another man came over, pushed his face up to Yisuo, and taunted, “Hit me, come on, hit me!”

A woman spoke up, “Senior Brother Lang, you’re so selfish.

I’m scared of how bad you’ve become, Senior Brother Lang.”

Pressing his hands tightly against his chest, Yisuo stepped back in anger and distress.

Being wealthy, he had never encountered such poisonous shamelessness before and was completely at a loss.

Moreover, he feared, feared that his reputation would truly be ruined and that everyone would hate him.

Snap!

But suddenly, a crisp sound abruptly rang out.

Sikong Jing slapped the man pointing at his face hard, sending him flying.

The latter landed with a scream of pain, holding his face in disbelief.

“If Senior Brother Lang won’t hit, I will!”

After speaking, Sikong Jing’s figure swept out, booming punch after punch on the others, sending them flying.

Yan Hedan widened his eyes and fiercely said, “Martial Scripture Realm?

What trash disciple did you come from?

I’ll kill you!”

After speaking, Yan Hedan’s True Qi exploded, revealing him to be a master at the Peak of the Martial Sect Realm.

The explosive True Qi rushed towards Sikong Jing, with a difference of three Great Realms between them, almost crushing Sikong Jing as he roared again, “Kid, you dare block our fortunes and strike, I’ll cripple you.”

After saying this, he charged furiously.

Yan Hedan didn’t really hate Yisuo, as in his eyes, Yisuo was just a fool not worthy of hate.

But he deeply despised Sikong Jing, who meddled in their affairs; depriving them of their earnings was like killing their parents.

Although Yisuo might not ask for the 100,000 Ming King Crystals back, it would be harder to obtain more from him in the future.

Now that Sikong Jing had dared to strike, he had thoroughly enraged Yan Hedan.

However, just as Yan Hedan was about to close in, Sikong Jing suddenly flashed a mischievous smile.

With a quick sidestep, he moved behind Yisuo, still wearing that side-faced smile.

Yisuo, taken aback and seeing Yan Hedan lunging towards him, instinctively threw out a heavy slap…

Snap!

The crisp sound echoed, and Yan Hedan flew out like a cannonball, crashing hard into the ground.

After twitching a few times, he passed out cold.
