As the school bell began to ring, the high school students who had been waiting impatiently in their classrooms rushed out immediately towards the corridors. It was as if they were afraid that they would not be able to get a good seat. Their gaze swept across the school compound as they searched for Ling Yun.
One could say that this had been the most intolerable lesson out of their entire schooling life. How they wished that their class would end sooner!
For the first half of the lesson, they had their ears perked up as they listened to the rhythmic conversation between Ling Yun and Tie Xiaohu.
“Surrender?”
“No!”
“Surrender?”
“No!”
The students then tried to imagine the possible scenarios, which made it easier as they waited for the time to pass.
However, for the last ten minutes, all they could hear were occasional screams or complete silence, making it seem as if Ling Yun and Tie Xiaohu had left the scene. Sometimes, it was even quieter than the lessons that were taking place inside the classrooms. This sent them into a state of panic.
Now that they had finally made it to the end of the lesson, they obviously would rush out to see what on earth is going on.
“Damn! Ling Yun is just too amazing, he threw Tie Xiaohu onto the backboard!”
“Woah, what on earth is Ling Yun doing? Practicing his basketball shots?!”
“That’s just unbelievable, how many fascinating scenes did we miss?”
“Damn it, I should’ve just skipped this lesson! It’s not as if I was paying attention anyway! Ugh!”
“Hahahaha, Tie Xiaohu, the best fighter in Qingshui High, thrown onto the backboard by Ling Yun. That’s so embarrassing, I’m cackling!”
The corridors of the two school blocks in Qingshui High were packed with people. The students were shocked, hysterical, discussing among themselves in disbelief. All sorts of things were happening!
Ning Lingyu slowly walked out of her classroom. She did not manage to catch the scene where Ling Yun was ‘shooting his shot’, but she did let out a chuckle when she saw Tie Xiaohu swaying in the wind as he hung on the backboard.
This brother of mine, why is he always flinging people everywhere!
Her beautiful and dreamy face widened into a smile. It was more radiant than the first ray of sun in the morning, more eye-catching than the roses blooming throughout the school compound. The boys from Grade 12 Class 1 were all dazzled by her absolute beauty!
However, no one dared to tease and disrespect Ning Lingyu to her face anymore. Now, everyone looked at Ning Lingyu with an inexplicable respect in their gaze.
Ling Yun was her brother. The very same person who was a fat useless piece of junk had become the deserving war god in the eyes of every single student in Qingshui High. He was now the most spectacular and amazing person to exist in Qingshui High!
Who would dare to offend Ning Lingyu?
Ning Lingyu was all smiles as she headed downstairs towards Ling Yun. Without a doubt, she was about to have lunch with Ling Yun.
“Figure out a way to get down yourself once you’re done resting!”
Ling Yun could not help but find it hilarious as he looked at Tie Xiaohu hanging off the backboard, before casually uttering those words. He then leaped over the railing and headed towards the members of the Green Dragon Gang.
The members of the Green Dragon Gang had been utterly defeated. Seven of them had their legs broken whereas most of them had swollen faces and broken noses. Tu Gang was in the worst condition out of all of them as he was hit by the baseball bats of his very own people.
The reason why they were still hanging around the school compound was to see how Ling Yun was going to handle Tie Xiaohu. If they abandoned Tie Xiaohu after seeing how Ling Yun tore him to shreds, the penitentiary of the Green Dragon Gang would never let them off!
The Green Dragon Gang was truly the Green Dragon Gang, savage and cruel. Even though seven of them had broken legs and one of them had sustained severe injuries, no one called for an ambulance or asked for anyone else to escort them to the hospital.
Soon enough, Ling Yun came face to face with the members of the Green Dragon Gang. His lips curl into a mesmerizing smile as he said, “Among the members of the Green Dragon Gang, apart from Tie Xiaohu, who else has the highest authority here?”
Right now, Tu Gang was groaning in pain on the ground and had become completely useless. Naturally, Ling Yun was not going to listen to what he has to say.
A scrawny-looking teenager with a height of 1.76 meters got up and asked, “What else do you want?”
Ling Yun chuckled and raised his chin as he asked, “What is your name?”
“Ding Guanghui,” the scrawny teenager replied coldly.
Ling Yun’s smile morphed into a solemn expression as he said, “Alright, Ding Guanghui. Your members brought more than 30 people to my school, picked a fight with me and wasted so many of our students’ time. How are we going to settle this score?”
Ding Guanghui, along with everyone behind him, was sent into a daze after hearing what Ling Yun said. What? Settling score? Did he not bash them up enough already? What else was there to settle?
Confused, Ding Guanghui furrowed his brows and asked, “You have already beaten us up this badly, six to seven of us have broken legs and Tu Gang is severely injured, what score is there to settle?”
Ling Yun quickly shook his head and clarified, “Watch your tongue. I admit that I was the one who broke their legs, but you guys were the one who beat up Tu Gang, that had nothing to do with me!”
A weird expression appeared on the faces of the Green Dragon Gang members as they thought to themselves.
Tu Gang’s injuries had nothing to do with him?
However, people could deny that what Ling Yun said is the truth. Indeed, it was the Green Dragon Gang members who had injured Tu Gang, thus they were unable to retort. Now that Ling Yun had the upper hand and the Green Dragon Gang members were all injured, what other choice did they have apart from agreeing with him?
Seeing that the members of the Green Dragon Gang were completely puzzled, Ling Yun gave them a gentle reminder, “Your people interrupted our classes and wasted so much of my energy taking you down. Shouldn’t there be some form of compensation?”
Then, Ling Yun rubbed his index and middle fingers together, imitating the action of someone counting money.
“Ah?!”
“What? This…”
All of the Green Dragon Gang members were petrified. After so many fights throughout the years, their blades have tasted the blood of their enemies, the fights would always end in someone’s death. Never have they ever heard someone requesting money after a fight!
Startled, Ding Guanghui looked at Ling Yun as he asked, “What? You still want money?”
Ling Yun nodded his head ever so seriously and replied, “In case you guys have forgotten, before the fight even began, I asked if you guys brought enough cash. Did you think that I was just joking about that?”
Right after those words left his mouth, Ling Yun started getting impatient. “Come on, start counting your money, I want as much as you have. I still have to go for lunch, I don’t have time to waste meddling around with you guys!”
The Green Dragon Gang members looked as if they had seen a ghost. None of them have met someone as shameless as Ling Yun.
This guy seems like a deserving martial arts master, why would he do something this immoral?
Tang Meng and Cao Shanshan were the closest to them and thus were able to hear every single word they said. They had an ‘I knew this was going to happen’ look on their faces as they thought to themselves that their lunch was probably settled for today.
Tu Gang had just experienced the exact same scenario recently and clearly knew what Ling Yun was after. He tried his best to flip over and clenched his teeth. “Brothers, don’t hesitate. As long as we don’t pay him, we won’t be able to leave this place. I have 12 thousand dollars here with me, you guys come up with a little more and hand it all to him!”
As he utters those words, Tu Gang used his trembling left hand to dig out his wallet and handed it to a gangster beside him.
The 12 thousand dollars were intended for treating these 30 over people to a celebration after they had successfully beat up Ling Yun and regained their dignity. Little did they know that the money would go to Ling Yun once again.
Everyone who worked with gangsters knew that one has to give in when he is on someone else’s turf. Knowing that they had no other choice, the members began digging around their wallets for money. The 30-odd people manage to gather 18 thousand dollars, combined with the 12 thousand dollars from Tu Gang, came to a sum of 30 thousand dollars. Ding Guanghui received the money and quickly handed the 30 thousand dollars over to Ling Yun.
Ling Yun was elated as he received the 30 thousand dollars. He then casually said to Ding Guanghui, “Alright, seeing as you people have so much sincerity, I will let you guys go for now. I would like you all to convey two messages to Brother Kun on my behalf.”
“Firstly, I’ll look for him to have a proper conversation about settling the scores and proper compensation as soon as I have the time to talk; Secondly, from this day onwards, Tie Xiaohu works for me and will have nothing to do with the Green Dragon Gang, understand?”
The students of Qingshui High were no longer scared by then and had already crowded around. They all took a deep breath when they heard that Ling Yun was going to look for Brother Kun from the Green Dragon Gang to ‘talk about’ compensation.
However, they were still afraid of the Green Dragon Gang and thus only dared to listen and not make any comments. Ultimately, they were not as capable as Ling Yun.
What the Green Dragon Gang members had a problem with was the second thing that Ling Yun mentioned.
Tie Xiaohu having to work for Ling Yun? Who is he to make that decision? Tie Xiaohu is the prospective successor to the Green Dragon Gang!
In their minds, based on Tie Xiaohu’s loyalty to Brother Kun, he definitely would not jump ship and start working for someone else. In addition, the people from the penitentiary will definitely hunt him down no matter where he goes if he really decided to betray the Green Dragon Gang.
Ding Guanghui wanted to say something but Ling Yun had already turned around and left with their money, he had zero intentions to continue meddling with them.
Embarrassing! Truly embarrassing! It had been so many years since the Green Dragon Gang had been established and this was the very first time they had been humiliated!
Ding Guanghui glared fiercely at Tu Gang who was still on the ground as he thought to himself.
Why on earth did you have to offend such a shameless demon out of everyone? High school student? My ass! As if a high school student would be this strong!
Based solely on Ling Yun’s performance during the fight, even the entire Green Dragon Gang along with Brother Kun’s personal bodyguards may not be have been able to take him down. What kind of high school student was this?
Ding Guanghui looked at Tie Xiaohu who was still hanging off the backboard faraway. He really wanted to go over and help him down before leaving together but he suddenly remembered what Ling Yun said. In the end, he still did not have the courage to step forward.
“How freaking unlucky can we get!” Ding Guanghui’s face turned ashen as he spat on the ground. He turned around and said to his friends, “Bring them along, let’s go!”
However, right at this moment, a police siren wailed through the school’s main road as three police cars sped towards them.
The Green Dragon Gang members were used to fighting, thus no matter whether they win or lose, they would not call the police, but this was a school!
Some of the teachers witnessed the Green Dragon Gang stirring up trouble before lessons had even begun and informed the principal regarding this matter. After over 20 minutes of hesitation, the principal finally decided to hand this matter over to the police.
His hesitation was understandable because the principal of Qingshui High was considered a figure of significant influence in Qingshui City. Thus, he had to take into account the Green Dragon Gang’s power and influence before making that decision.
The police sirens pierce through the air as the police cars quickly arrived at the scene where the crowd was. A dashing female police officer was the first one to get off the police car.
The students of Qingshui High all turn around simultaneously. By the time they got a good look at the female police officer, everyone could not help but hold their breaths.
The person who had just arrived was not just anyone, it was the beauty who looked just like a fairy who had just descended from the heavens – Lin Menghan!
