Chapter 22: The Riots in the Streets
Ling Tian felt very fresh.
Although he seemed like he was taking such a big risk when he spoke to Master Qin, it was actually a high-level technique! First, he used his incredible memories to stimulate the old man's love for talent! Then, he used the curiosity generated from it and slowly revealed some secrets of his, gradually grasping Master Qin in his palm. As a result, Master Qin was no longer able to pull himself out and Ling Tian managed to solve his problem over the next few years.
You should know, Master Qin only has one way out now. Although he could reveal Ling Tian's secret, he would lose a genius disciple and lose the only chance he had to shock the world. His family's life is also in grave danger. No matter how great the fall of the Ling family was, it was still an easy task for them to take care of such a small family. Moreover, if he were to betray the family he worked for, he would be a shameful traitor! The good reputation of Lord Qin who had spread throughout the land would then be destroyed in an instant, leaving behind a bad name for himself in the history books! For someone like Master Qin who valued reputation more than his life, he would rather die 10,000 times than take a risk with something like this.
If Master Qin were to keep this secret, it would mean that the benefits to him and his family would be immense! If he had such a strong backing as the Ling family, any problems he faced in this country in the future would be easily resolved! With Ling Tian's intelligence, he would definitely shock the world when his wings were given enough time to grow! At that moment, Master Qin, who was Ling Tian's first teacher, also became famous throughout the world. This was precisely the thing that Master Qin had been pursuing all his life! Now that he had the chance to fulfill it, he would hold this opportunity tightly even if it meant that his entire body would be smashed into pieces.
The conditions that Ling Tian offered were something that Master Qin was unwilling and unable to resist. Actually, that's what he wanted.
Ling Tian then thought about a very rude way to describe the situation: The adulterous couple fits together well.
After the conversation with Master Qin, Ling Tian felt very relaxed. With satisfaction, he openly brought his two servants and walked out of the main gate of the Ling mansion.
Behind him, Master Qin's face had already changed many times. Then, he scolded the vulgar that had never been scolded before in his life and kicked the bench where Ling Tian was sitting far away. After which, he stood there in a daze, with a comfortable smile on his face. Sometimes, he smiled, and sometimes, he was angry; a myriad of emotions on his face as if he was a madman.
Ling Tian, who had big eyes and rosy cheeks, wore a white robe and sang happily in the streets. He started screaming into the sky, “My friends, 1949 is here! The Chinese people have been released!”
The two servants who were behind him looked at each other strangely, sighing together, “Young time is indeed the best. Look how happy our young master is!”
When his mood was at its best, something bad would definitely ruin it! This was something Ling Tian had experienced very often.
Suddenly, a huge commotion broke out in the streets as Ling Tian could hear people shouting. There was a man who came out of the gambling house with a face full of smiles and a coin strand more than half full. It seems that his luck is pretty good.
Just as he exited the gambling house, he was knocked to the floor by a small figure and his coins were scattered all over the place. Even before he had time to scold, the little figure had already woken up and ran towards the city gate.
Behind him, the man on the floor started scolding, “F **k! Bad boy, this father will definitely skin you alive if I catch you!”
The small figure then passed by Ling Tian and Ling Tian saw it clearly. He was a seven to eight year old boy who was very thin. Her clothes were tattered with a face full of earth. His teeth were tightly gritted as he dashed towards the city gate without looking back at all.
Ling Tian was surprised at the speed of this little boy. It was obvious that this brat had never practiced martial arts before. But when he ran, his little body was perfectly controlled and he was faster than an ordinary adult. From the steam rising from the top of his head, Ling Tian knew that this boy had been running for a long time. Otherwise, why would he be drenched in sweat even in this cold weather? It seems that his determination is not too bad either. Ling Tian was curious: Why did he run away? He looked too confused; it was as if there was a hungry wolf chasing him …
As Ling Tian thought, the boy was no longer in sight, leaving behind those cursing people that the boy had hit.
After which, Ling Tian could hear dozens of people running. It seems that these people are definitely chasing after the boy, Ling Tian thought inwardly. Ling Tian looked at which direction the boy was coming from and saw the crowd dispersing and running like waves. Ling Tian frowned for a moment. Then, a thought flashed through his mind. He then walked towards the man who scolded and kicked his stomach, “Hal shame! Why are you so arrogant?”
After receiving a sudden powerful kick, the man immediately curled up on the floor like a shrimp as his face stiffened with pain. With a sharp look in his eyes, he scolded, “Tiny bastard! You seek death!”
Ling Tian then kicked him again, shameful “Hal, you dare to scold this young master?” Then Ling Tian gave him another kick.
Everyone on the street suddenly felt as if their horizons were widened. There was actually a well-dressed boy who was definitely less than 10 years old kicking a man over 20 years old! The crowd began to gather and the streets were completely jammed.
The moment the two maids saw that this gambler dared to humiliate their young master, they were truly enraged! They immediately took one step forward and removed some teeth from the gambler, “You dare to humiliate the young master? You deserve to die!” Their blows then rained down on the man.
Gamblers eventually realized that the person who kicked him was wearing luxurious clothes and looked like a child from a wealthy family. Right then and there, he knew that he had offended someone he shouldn't have done. He then began to plead with his hands wrapped around his head and his body coiled into a ball.
The people in the crowd then looked towards Ling Tian with a tinge of fear in their eyes. What family is this kid in? Why is he so domineering?
A few burly men dressed in black who were chasing after the boy suddenly saw the streets jammed. They couldn't help but get angry and shout, “You all unrelated people, step aside. There's something we have to do.” He then extended his hand and pushed those on the outer edge of the crowd to the side.
Ling Tian immediately looked up, “Who would dare to be rude?”
As the servants of Ling's house, both of them already had an overbearing and domineering habit. They then stepped out of the crowd with their hands crossed and noses raised high, “The young master of the Ling family is finishing something, who would dare to disturb him?” The arrogance they had in their tone was something that even government officials would not dare to have.
Some of the black-clothed men were then stunned and realized something was wrong. They were actually from the Ling mansion! The young master of the Ling family was truly present! They looked at each other doubtfully.
Although they were not government officials, but who in this country did not know about the Ling family? With the power that the Ling family possessed, it was naturally not something that small gangs like them could offend. Therefore, they immediately retreated.
