The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 24
Ling Mu Yun luckily held onto Ling Han's weakness, so he naturally would not give up easily. He continued aggressively, "Alchemist is the most respected and most dignified profession in the entire Rain Country, yet not only do you not stand up to greet my master upon his arrival, you did not stand up to greet my master, but also keep sitting? How arrogant are you?
Kneel down quickly and beg your Lord for punishment!"
Ling Dong Xing frowned slightly. Alchemists were indeed extremely rare and held a high status in the Rain Country. For example, even though this Ma Da Jun was only at the ninth layer of the Body Refining Level, as he was a Yellow Class intermediate-level alchemist, he was, even a strong warrior of the Element Gathering Level like himself and Ling Zhong Kuan had to show him some face and satisfy Ma Da Jun's ego.
Now that Ling Zhong Kuan and his grandson had taken advantage of this point to attack Ling Han, he really might face some problems.
Clenching his fists, Ling Dong Xing said, "Alchemist Ma, many apologies. If my son has done anything to offend you, I hereby apologize on his behalf. As a forgiving and generous person, please do not humble yourself to the same degree as my son."
Ma Da Jun did not even notice Ling Han. He only found out what was going on after hearing Ling Mu Yun's reprimand, so he couldn't control his increasing dissatisfaction and said, "Ling Clan Head, you are truly amazing. You invited me to dinner, so I offered you respect by coming here. Yet you actually let your son humiliate me? Grunting, what kind of logic is this?"
"Ling Han, get on your knees now!" Ling Mu Yun smiled coldly. He knew very well that/it was an alchemy pill was one of the most important sources of income for the clan, so even if Ling Dong Xing was unwilling, it was not, he had no choice but to acknowledge the matter and pressure Ling Han to do as he was told.
'Forced to kneel by his own parents, Ling Han would definitely be very depressed and very sad, right? Ahahaha!"
"Alchemist Ma-" Ling Dong Xing tried again to advise Ma Da Jun to have everything go.
Ma Da Jun simply raised his hand to stop Ling Dong Xing from continuing to speak. He did not even look at Ling Han and just said casually, "Let your son kneel before me to explain."
"Penet!"
Ling Dong Xing slammed his hand hard onto the table and said, "Alchemist Ma, please, I don't know what benefits you received from the Cheng Clan to help them create trouble for our Ling Clan. But don't you dare go far. You really want my son, Ling Dong Xing, to kneel? Getting lost!"
"How dare you!" Ling Zhong Kuan immediately shouted loudly, Ling Dong Xing, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to bring destruction to the clan? The clan is not just your own! As someone who doesn't care about the big picture, what right do you have to continue holding the position of Clan Head of the Ling Clan? "
Ling Dong Xing's gaze turned heavy, and he said, "Who among them here doesn't care about the big picture? Since I considered the fact that we have the same Ling surname, there are some things that I did not bring out into the open, yet you all bully my son in this way. Do you really think I, Ling Dong Xing, am dead?"
"Enough, if you're going to get involved in a family quarrel, then argue you're at home. I'm a very busy person" Ma Da Jun interrupted. "Hurry for this boy to kneel before me to apologize."
"Ma Da Jun, who are you asking to kneel?" Ling Han finally opened his mouth as he asked calmly.
Oh, yes, Jun?
At first, Ling Zhong and Ling Mu Yun were both shocked, secretly thinking that Ling Han actually dared to actually summon Alchemist Ma directly by his name. But soon, they looked extremely happy - Ling Han was actually offending Ma Da Jun right now! Ling Dong Xing and his son must have finished!
'Haha, I know this boy will bring destruction to his father.'
"Based on trash, to actually call my master by his name directly, how dare you!" Ling Mu Yun immediately shouted. He must definitely seize the great opportunity to flatter Ma Da Jun.
However, he had yet to see that Ma Da Jun's expression quickly turned ugly. He even immediately stood up from his seat.
This voice—how could Ma Da Jun forget this voice?
"Kneel-to"
I said, "All right!"
Ling Mu Yun did not even manage to finish his words before seeing Ma Da Jun flying towards him like an arrow shot from a bow, raising his hand and giving him a heavy slap.
There must be some kind of mistake!
"Ma, Teacher!" Ling Mu Yun's expression practically shouted that he felt guilty. Why was he suddenly hit?
Under the gazes of the three clueless bystanders, Ma Da Jun quickly ran over to stand in front of Ling Han. Bowing, he lowered his head respectfully as if he was an obedient little henchman and said, "So the noble guest today is Young Master Han. Forgive my blindness for not managing to pay attention to Young Master Han now. "
Even though he was suffering a lot because of Ling Han, he did not know what his name was - Zhu He Xin naturally did not need to explain anything to him.
Whahuh? Whahuh?
The other three Ling Clan members all went into " petrifying" mode". Was this really the extremely arrogant, tall and mighty Alchemist Ma just a moment ago? Why did they suddenly feel like they had become a snub dog? Furthermore, why did he call Ling Han 'Young Master Han'?
Although the actual cultivation level of Ma Da Jun could not be considered very high, he was an alchemist.
And an alchemist always commanded great respect and dignity!
The other three felt as if they had been petrified. They do not believe what they see or hear at all.
"This student? How arrogant!" Said Ling Han, looking at Ling Han. His tone was very calm.
However, Ma Da Jun was shocked to death. Once again, he gave a loud slap again to Ling Mu Yun, and said, "Who do you think you are, to be truly disrespectful to Young Master Han? I don't have students like that. From now on, don't call me your master."
Ling Mu Yun immediately put on an expression of disbelief. He's been expelled? Just because of one word from Ling Han?
He remembered that Ling Han had just told him that he would never become an alchemist. Those words have really come true!
"No, sir, please don't throw me out, please give me another chance!" Ling Mu Yun pleaded solemnly, quickly throwing himself at the foot of Ma Da Jun.
He was not a martial arts genius, and had even lost the opportunity to enroll in Hu Yang Academy. Thus, becoming an alchemist was his last chance. Otherwise, he should be like his father and grandfather. The strongest he could do would only be an Element Gathering Tier, and he would have a certain status only in the extremely small and extremely remote Grey Cloud City.
"Get lost, you dare to be disrespectful to Young Master Han! I've been merciful by not killing you, and you really imagined that/that you would become an alchemist? " Ma Da Jun snorted. Even Zhu He Xin, Grandmaster Zhu, was extremely respectful towards Ling Han. If he knew that/that Ling Mu Yun actually dared to take such a stance against Ling Han, he might even rush here to kill this brat with his own hands!
And with a single word from Grandmaster Zhu, which alchemist in the entire Rain Country dared to take Ling Mu Yun as a disciple?
Ling Mu Yun could not control the pale expression on his face. He was in a daze, looking as if he had lost his soul.
"Let's go!" Ling Zhong Kuan held onto his grandson. He knew there was no point in saying anything now - it was better for them to leave before they humiliated themselves further.
"No! I am a disciple of an alchemist, I will become an alchemist in the future!" Ling Mu Yun struggled with all his might, as if he had gone mad. But Ling Zhong Kuan hugged him tightly. Those who were still left in the private room could only hear the shrieks growing further and further before finally disappearing.
In the private room, Ling Dong Xing looked startled, while Ma Da Jun was drenched in cold sweat. He did not know if he had managed to calm Ling Han's anger. He really did not dare to offend this young master.
"Just now, you are quite fierce to face my father," Ling Han said calmly, yet there was a strong dissatisfaction in his voice.
"Young Master Han, I don't know now that/that Ling Clan Head is your father. Otherwise, I would have never dared to air in front of Ling Clan Head! " He spoke with a sad expression, "I deserve to die, I am completely worthless!"
He strengthened his resolve, and actually started to slap himself repeatedly!
