The Rebirth of the Legendary King
Nothing Compared to the King
Three days later.
Ling was at Chen Company for a meeting with a client. Actually Ling always refused if Chen Qi told him to work in the company. However Ling was aware that Yuan Ming would also ask for his opinion before doing anything. So he still has to take on this responsibility.
"We will invest the building on your island. But we will not bear government taxes anymore" said a client from Shadow City.
Ling Island is on the border of Urban City and Shadow City. So it is natural that there are Shadow City people who build buildings on the island.
"good. Then you will only get 5% profit%. If you pay the tax, you'll make a 20% profit" Ling replied casually. He threw the documents he had just finished reading.
"can't. We will not pay taxes and we will get a 30% profit" the person said.
Yuan Ming glanced at Ling. He knew the person in front of him was very cunning and did not want any losses. But now he was facing Ling. It seems his cunning is useless.
"The island is on the border. That would be a lucrative stopover. The 5% benefit is already huge if you do not want to pay taxes. I know your business there is not going well. If you don't want this cooperation, I don't mind either. I'll wait for the government to confiscate your building" Ling said casually. He leaned back in the chair and looked at the client.
Yuan Ming was shocked. He does not know if the business of the man will soon go bankrupt. It was true, his cunning would be useless in front of Ling.
The client was no less surprised. He had made an as neat report as possible for his bankruptcy to be covered, but it was still visible in Ling's eyes.
"If you're not willing, we can end this meeting now" Ling said. He put the documents in front of him.
"Wait on! I agree! I agree!" tell the client quickly.
"good. You can discuss this further with Master Yuan," Ling replied. He stepped out of the room.
Yuan Ming smiled faintly. He knew Ling was no ordinary person. Even facing the person from Shadow City alone he was very relaxed. How could he have been called trash? Yuan Ming was completely inexhaustible if he recalled that rumor.

Ling's off school today. He plans to go to the island with his friends tomorrow. He also planned to invite Zhuo Xia and Yu Bin as a sign of his revenge.
He sent a message to all of them.
He looked at the mirror in his room. He looked at his face carefully. These few days he was unable to sleep due to his conversation with Zhuo Xia a few days ago.
Why did Zhuo Xia know so much about him?
If Zhuo Xia was indeed familiar with him, why would he be able to realize that this was Ling X?
He had covered it up as much as possible all this time.
If he was not a close person, why was Zhuo Xia so confident?
Especially when with Zhuo Xia, the pendant always warms up.
Was Zhuo Xia one of the memory fragments he had forgotten?
Ling rubbed his face in frustration. However he tried to remember about Zhuo Xia, he found nothing. He just got a headache.
Ling took the memory potion. He wanted to drink it immediately. But he was afraid that his body would not be able to accept the effects of the potion if it was not level nine. He should be able to wait again. He would also quickly find a potion that would strengthen him in no time.
Memory loss is really excruciating.
Ling took the phone back. He opened a special website for the Island That Cannot Be Called His Name. He read a message from the doctor about his question yesterday. Fortunately, their answers were satisfactory. So Ling's mood didn't deteriorate.
Then he typed something again in the forum. He ignored the previous incoming messages.
King: [Does anyone know about the Zhuo Family who has the symbol of the Phoenix?]
Bomb Expert: [Is the King looking for him? She is known as a cold-blooded woman due to her appearance a few months ago. After his rampage on the battlefield, he became famous. She was also made the supreme female commander of Shadow City.]
Doctor: [But still he is nothing compared to the King.]
Ling immediately took out his account after reading their replies.
Appeared on the battlefield a few months ago? Was it when he died? It was only fitting that he never knew about the Zhuo Family.
If so, shouldn't Zhuo Xia not know Ling?
He put one in and started to soak.

In the room in his villa, Zhuo Xia sat by the window. His eyes looked out. His face looks gloomy. He rarely expresses himself like this.
I'm pretty sure it was him.
For months he has been searching. When he found it, was it really not the same person? He tried as hard as he could. When he had convinced himself, why was that belief simply destroyed?
He could not have known the wrong person.
That's when the phone rings. There was one message coming in that surprised him. He smiled after reading the message.
[I'm taking you to my new island. I hope you have time.]
It was a message from Ling. His heart's anxiety slowly disappeared. It turned out that Ling was still contacting him. He even took her on vacation. He thought Ling would stay away from him after this.
Immediately, he typed a reply.
[Good. I'll go to your new island.]
After typing a reply, his phone rang again. It was a call from his mother.
"Hello, Mother," said Zhuo Xia.
"Xia, I heard that Young Master Bo has arrived in Urban City. She will meet you soon," Madam Zhuo said straight to the core.
"I won't meet him," Zhuo Xia replied coldly.
"Xia, Mom doesn't want to be like this either. I want you to forget it. He cannot possibly return," Madam Zhuo resignedly said.
"He'll be back. I'm sure of that," Zhuo Xia replied. He gripped his phone tightly.
"alright. Mom and Dad won't force you. But we can't face your grandfather again this time," Madam Zhuo said. He sounded a long breath.
"Thank you, Mommy. Mom and Dad always understood me" Zhuo Xia said. Then he decided on the call.
The door to his room was knocked. Sound from outside.
"Miss Zhuo, Young Master Bo has arrived. He has arranged your meeting schedule" said the waiter from outside.
"Sadly, how dare he set me up" Zhuo Xia sneered. He walked towards the door.
"Miss, if you don't want to meet him, Old Master will be disappointed," the maid said again as Zhuo Xia had not opened the door either.
Door opens. The waiter immediately bowed respectfully.
"Alright I'll meet him," Zhuo Xia said.
The waiter looked happy. He then said, "Okay, Miss. I will arrange all the needs ...,"
"Then I will kill him," Zhuo Xia continued cutting the servant's words.
