Tell Me, Are You Scared?
Ouyang Ling is a woman of her word; if she says she'll give guidance for another day, she will never simply leave.
After the final day of instruction, Ouyang Ling suggested, "Our Ouyang Lineage is leaving tomorrow. Wouldn't it be reasonable to hold a farewell banquet for us?"
With a sorrowful expression, Zhao Xing, the Setting Sun Sect, said, "Master Ouyang, it's not that we don't want to hold a farewell banquet, it's just that we don't have a chef."
Ouyang Ling expressed her understanding of the difficulties faced by the Setting Sun Sect and offered a solution.
"We've been teaching you weapon refiners for the past few days, so let's end this as a thank-you banquet... Let the weapon refiners cook. Don't worry, no matter how bad your cooking is, the Ouyang Lineage won't mind. After all, it's about friendship..."
That evening, the weapon refiners from the Setting Sun Sect personally cooked the meal. These weapon refiners had only ever worked with spiritual tools; they had never worked with cooking utensils before.
The resulting concoctions, let alone the taste, are so unrecognizable that you can hardly tell what the raw materials are just by looking at them.
But the Ouyang Lineage meant what they said; if they said they didn't care, they really didn't care!
That evening, Ouyang Ming offered a toast to the Setting Sun Sect members in place of some unknown substance!
The farewell banquet... the Ouyang Lineage ate with great relish, while many members of the Setting Sun Sect contemplated suicide on the spot...
Both host and guests had a wonderful time!
The next day, not many people from the Ouyang Lineage left. Apart from the Setting Sun Sect Zhao Xing and the Grand Elder, no one else from the Setting Sun Sect came.
Zhao Xing wiped away his tears and escorted the Ouyang Lineage to the gate of the Setting Sun Sect. He was about to say a few words to persuade them to stay when the Grand Elder of the Setting Sun Sect covered his mouth.
Sect Master! You're so foolish!
If you say those polite words to persuade them to stay, what if the Ouyang Lineage actually does decide to stay? What do you suggest?
Yesterday, a bunch of elders said that tomorrow only one of the Ouyang Lineage and the others can remain!
If you keep the Ouyang Lineage here, our Setting Sun Sect will have to divide up the belongings...
Are the Ouyang Lineage here to give us, the Setting Sun Sect, some kind of pointers?
Others might offer advice for money, Ouyang Lineage's advice is about life and death!
Look at our weapon refiners, they haven't even improved... they've been given so much pointers they're practically forgetting how to refine weapons...
Our Setting Sun Sect only owes your Vast Heaven Sect a little money. Killing someone is just a matter of life and death. If you want to destroy our Setting Sun Sect, you can just do it. There's no need to torture people like this.
Ma Liang remained in a daze until he left the Setting Sun Sect's mountain gate.
Is this still the Setting Sun Sect I know?
Is it really appropriate for you to call Setting Sun Sect a deadbeat now?
Ma Liang didn't know if Setting Sun Sect was considered a deadbeat; Ma Liang only knew that if it were him, he wouldn't have lasted until the next day. He would have paid back the money that very night while eating braised pork knuckle!
Junior Sister Ouyang is terrifyingly powerful!
Then, without stopping, Ma Liang took Ouyang Ling to the second house, the Yu Lineage!
The Yu Lineage is a bit complicated, Yu Lineage they have some kinship ties with Elder Yu Yuyu the Azure Wood Palace of the Vast Heaven Sect.
It's just that many generations have passed, and the kinship may have become very weak.
The Yu Lineage had borrowed resources from the Vast Heaven Sect multiple times before and never returned them. Elder Yu even paid out of his own pocket to cover the losses the first few times, but the Yu Lineage was shameless and kept borrowing from them. Because of Elder Yu's relationship with the sect, it was not easy to refuse them.
After a while, Elder Yu got angry. Ma Liang had asked Elder Yu what to do, Elder Yu said not to worry about his face, just do what needs to be done!
Although Elder Yu said that, Ma Liang still had to consider Elder Yu's feelings.
Therefore, the Yu Lineage is a very tough nut to crack.
They are different from the Setting Sun Sect. Relying on Elder Yu's kinship, they didn't even take Ma Liang seriously when Ma Liang came last time.
Just because we disagreed doesn't mean we're Elder Yu's men. What can you, Ma Liang, a disciple of the Vast Heaven Sect, do about it?
Do you dare touch a single hair on the head of the Yu Lineage? If you threaten or harm anyone from the Yu Lineage, do you believe that my Yu Lineage will immediately go to your Vast Heaven Sect and cry to our ancestor?
Ma Liang was kicked out immediately. If it weren't for the Elder Yu's feelings, Ma Liang would have wanted to activate the Fengdu Grand Formation.
Therefore, Ma Liang felt that the method that Junior Sister Ouyang used at the Setting Sun Sect would probably not work at the Yu Lineage... The Yu Lineage would not give them a warm welcome, would not give the Ouyang Lineage a chance to make them cry, and might even kick them out directly.
After listening to Ma Liang's introduction, Ouyang Ling's lips curled up slightly, her expression calm.
Ouyang Ling then said, "How dare the Yu Lineage act so arrogantly towards me Ouyang Ling? We don't even need to step into their Yu Lineage to get our money back."
Ma Liang was completely dumbfounded. How the hell was he supposed to take this?
However, Ma Liang chose to Watch Quietly as Things Change!
The Yu Lineage had already received news of Ma Liang and his group's arrival, but Yu Chengshu, the ninth-generation descendant of Elder Yu, the current head of the Yu Lineage, remained completely unperturbed.
Hmph! Our Yu Lineage has Elder Yu. Although Elder Yu says he doesn't care about anything anymore, can the Vast Heaven Sect really just ignore everything?
Our ancestor was an elder of your Vast Heaven Sect.
Do you dare to do anything outrageous?
Your Vast Heaven Sect might threaten other families when you're angry, but can you threaten our Yu Lineage?
If you ever threaten the Yu Lineage in the slightest, I, Yu Chengshu, will shamelessly go to the Vast Heaven Sect to complain to our ancestor.
Don't be fooled by how angry our ancestors were, wishing they could kill me. I may not care about face, but our ancestors certainly did!
If the Yu Lineage is harmed in the slightest, what will become of our ancestors' reputation?
So Yu Chengshu wasn't worried at all. The Yu Lineage their business as usual... It's not that the Yu Lineage is poor, it's that we're shameless, we just won't pay back, so what are you going to do about it!
Are you someone who dares to harm the Yu Lineage, or someone who dares to threaten the Yu Lineage?
You dare not do anything, what can you possibly do?
Not only will our Yu Lineage not repay the money, but we will also go to the Vast Heaven Sect to borrow money in a while. Although our ancestor has repeatedly said that we are not allowed to borrow money, our Yu Lineage has plenty of ways to get it.
And no matter how much we borrow, we will never pay it back!
As long as our ancestors are alive, our Yu Lineage will never be able to repay Vast Heaven Sect.
Even if our ancestor were to pass away one day, the Yu Lineage would still not pay back the debt. If the Vast Heaven Sect dares to come and collect the debt, we will tell everyone, "See... people forget you when you're gone... Our ancestor has just passed away, and the Vast Heaven Sect is already coming to collect the debt. The Vast Heaven Sect has no humanity!"
If we have no morals, no one can morally blackmail us!
Furthermore, we can morally blackmail your Vast Heaven Sect!
Yu Lineage the leadership of the utterly immoral patriarch Yu Chengshu, the Yu family remained completely unchanged by the arrival of Ma Liang and his group. On the contrary, they continued with their usual routines... in short, they refused to repay the money.
Seeing the Yu Lineage's shameless and unscrupulous behavior, Ma Liang was so angry that he bit his teeth until they bled.
If it weren't for the sake of Elder Yu's reputation, Ma Liang would have loved to use the Fengdu Grand Formation to wipe out the Yu Lineage.
"Senior Brother Ma Liang, there's no need to be angry. The Yu Lineage isn't exactly shameless!"
Ouyang Ling spoke with a cold smile.
Ma Liang Liangren was stunned after hearing Ouyang Ling's words...
Junior Sister Ouyang, do you even want to listen to what you're saying? Is that even human language?
This isn't shameless? This is downright shameless, practically blatantly blatantly shameless!
I, Ma Liang, have never seen such a shameless person. If you say such shameless scoundrels aren't shameless, then here's the question... Junior Sister Ouyang, does your Ouyang Lineage have absolutely no bottom line?
So how shameless can you be?
"Senior Brother Ma Liang, don't worry. At most three days, the Yu Lineage will obediently repay all the debts, including those that Elder Yu helped them repay in the past."
Ouyang Ling spoke calmly while gnawing on a pork knuckle.
Ma Liang broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this... At this moment, although Ma Liang didn't know what Junior Sister Ouyang was up to, Ma Liang sighed with relief, thinking, "Luckily, the Ouyang Lineage is with our Vast Heaven Sect."
If the Ouyang Lineage owes our Vast Heaven Sect a debt, we'll just tear up the IOU and be done with it...
The only thing that can defeat a deadbeat is an even bigger deadbeat; the only thing that can defeat shamelessness is even more shameless!
Ma Liang also reminded Ouyang Ling.
"Junior Sister Ouyang... although Senior Brother Ma Liang isn't entirely sure what method you're planning... they are, after all, descendants of Elder Yu. Even if Elder Yu said we could act freely, you can't actually do it..."
"If you harm anyone from the Yu Lineage, not to mention what Elder Yu will say, what will people who don't know the situation think of our Vast Heaven Sect..."
"Senior Brother Ma Liang, please rest assured, I know what I'm doing. Elder Yu has always been very kind to our Artifact Refining Palace. Although these descendants of the Yu Lineage are shameless, I guarantee I will never harm the Yu Lineage in the slightest! Nor will I utter a single threatening word to Yu Lineage!"
Ma Liang felt somewhat relieved after hearing this.
Although Junior Sister Ouyang has no bottom line, what Junior Sister Ouyang says is reliable. When Junior Sister Ouyang said she would embarrass Ou Yunsheng, she really did embarrass him.
Junior Sister Ouyang said she wanted to surprise Senior Brother Xinghe, and look how surprised he was, he was practically numb with joy!
While Ma Liang was waiting, Ouyang Ling made her move.
Early one morning, the gatekeeper of the Yu Lineage yawned and pushed open Yu Lineage gate, ready to start a new day.
But the moment the Yu Lineage's gate opened, the Yu Lineage noticed something appearing above his head.
The gatekeeper slowly raised his head and looked ahead; he was so scared he almost wet his pants!
Damn... right outside the Yu Lineage's front door, there was a neat row of... corpses hanging there?
The gatekeeper almost thought he was seeing things, but upon closer inspection, there was nothing wrong... it really was a row of corpses!
The gatekeeper screamed in fright and scrambled back to the Yu Lineage...
Ma Liang stood at a distance, stunned, staring at the row of corpses hanging in Yu Lineage.
Is this really your method, Junior Sister Ouyang?
Isn't your method of debt collection a bit too harsh?
On a dark and windy night, a senior brother from the Dark Moon Palace was dispatched from his sect, only to hang himself at the Yu Lineage's doorstep after a mere disagreement?
And it wasn't just one person who was hanged... it was a whole row of them?
Isn't this a bit too much of a shock to the Yu Lineage?
Ma Liang had never even heard of such a method of debt collection, let alone seen it.
You're not going to pay me back, are you? I can't hurt you, can I?
Fine, I'll hurt myself, okay?
I'll hang myself on your doorstep under the cover of darkness... Tell me, are you scared?
