The Ling Family's Collapse

345

Shen Yan fumbled in his hand for the small bottle, no bigger than a thumb, which emitted a dark, eerie glow.

The lips touched.

He said those words so casually.

Sikong Jue, who was fully prepared to bid on the so-called Divine Stone, was instantly stunned.

He subconsciously looked at Ling Du.

An earphone was plugged into his ear.

Ling Du, who was secretly watching the video, looked up in bewilderment.

They seemed not to have realized what was going on.

What exactly did that Purplebeard from the Heavenly Human Realm on the stage say?

Ling Ye, inside another building outside the venue, made the same expression.

Ling Ye was also wearing an earphone.

He watched the video while simultaneously viewing a live stream camera within the Auction Hall.

They were keeping a close eye on Auction.

When he heard what Purplebeard said.

Suddenly at a loss, she looked up and stared blankly at the live stream screen.

"What... what was he saying just now?"

"What's the next item to be auctioned?!"

Qing Juechen, who had initially looked displeased, couldn't help but feel schadenfreude.

"Your family's third young master's video, version 2.0 HD!"

As they were talking.

Qing Juechen couldn't help but glance at Ling Ye's phone.

"Yours is a blurry video, right? We're selling the high-definition version now!"

Ling Ye: "..."

Sikong Mei: "..."

Lin Jingzhe twitched the corner of his mouth.

Really!

This Auction by the Bearded Pirate Group.

It wasn't about selling anything at all.

It's purely to gather these people here.

Then give them a good, disgusting experience!

No.

The way this Bearded Pirate Group behaves is like that of a bunch of immature children!

I do things entirely based on my own whims.

Without considering any consequences!

... It's as if they came specifically to make enemies!

Ling Ye's lips trembled violently.

Just then.

He was listening to the conversation between Ling Chu, Elder Xu, and Yu Jin through the earphone he was wearing in one ear.

It reached his ears with perfect clarity.

"After succeeding, they left evidence at the scene, claiming it was the work of the Bearded Pirates!"

"Anyway, the Bearded Pirates have done so many despicable things, one more won't make a difference!"

"Yes, yes, yes, just say it was the Bearded Pirates who did it!"

"Or, we can capture a lot more Sequence Martial Artist and then pin it all on the Bearded Pirates!"

"Anyway, Jiangcheng is chaotic enough right now... even the Domain Demons have entered the city, so no one will care if a few Sequence Martial Artist die!"

Ling Ye shuddered violently.

He looked at the live stream in front of him with a horrified expression.

As Martial Artist at the Heavenly Being High Realm.

Ling Ye could naturally tell that the video was genuine.

It wasn't forged using any special Sequence.

It was filmed on location!

So, Ling Chu and the other two really did say those words!

So, these past two days...

The people kidnapped by the Bearded Pirate Group...

This video!

That would completely reverse the reputation of the Bearded Pirate Group!

Even after this video was released...

The Auction not continue.

It turned into a whitewashing event for the Bearded Pirate Group.

When the time comes, the blame will be dumped on the Ling Family.

The Ling Family was utterly disgraced.

In the adult world.

The enemy wants to deal with the Ling Family.

No concrete evidence is needed; an excuse is enough!

This video is the perfect excuse!

Although Ling Chu kept a low profile, he rarely appeared in public.

But he was the son of the head of the family, the Third Young Master of the Ling Family.

He was even groomed by the family head Ling Chengyue, as his Heir!

Every word and action represents the Ling Family!

Damn it!

Ling Ye couldn't help but curse aloud.

It's unclear whether they're cursing the Bearded Pirates or Ling Chu!

"They're also going to sell videos!!"

"The Bearded Pirates clearly signed Contract with us, how dare they?!"

Ling Ye couldn't help but fly into a rage.

He wished he could rush into the Auction and crush those damned Pirates.

Qing Juechen's gloating voice rang out again.

"Why don't you take a good look at that Contract?"

"Didn't the Contract say it was a blurry video?"

"This is version 2.0 (HD)."

"It's not the same video."

Just now.

To ensure that the Bearded Pirate Group do not violate the Sequence Contract.

After Ling Du signed the Contract with Purplebeard.

He even made sure to show off the Contract.

Ling Ye's body trembled.

He looked at Sikong Mei with a pleading expression.

Even Sikong Mei's old face froze in shock.

Even she was truly surprised that these Bearded Pirates could pull off such a bizarre stunt!

... Does Pirate mean you can be shameless?!

And that Purplebeard!

A dignified Heavenly Being Transcendent would actually do such a shameless thing in public!

Is he really Heavenly Being?

Just as Ling Ye was gripped by impotent rage...

Purplebeard's incredibly irritating voice rang out again.

"Of course, this high-definition video doesn't require Abyss Potions."

"A Twelfth-Tier Energy Source will be the starting bid."

"Each bid increase must be no less than one Twelfth-Tier Energy Source."

"Now everyone can start bidding."

Ling Ye, Ling Du, and the other Martial Artists from the Ling Family couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

It's fine as long as we don't use Abyss Potions...

But soon...

Their hearts were in their throats once again.

The barrier of Abyss Potions is gone.

Wouldn't that mean everyone...?

Everyone can participate in the bidding now!?

Especially Ling Du and Ling Ye.

They had all seen the follow-up content of the video.

I know how serious this is!

... And Ling Chengxin, who had already been cleaved into dust by the backlash of the Sequence Contract.

I never imagined this until my death.

Because of his death, the video that was originally promised to be quietly bought back for a dozen or so Twelfth-Tier Energy Sources was lost.

It's unbelievable that things have escalated to this point!

It is common knowledge that a rift has developed between them and the Qing Family, with whom they are about to form a marriage alliance.

They also paid with a bottle of Abyss Potion.

They even want to participate in the auction and win back this damn video!

Ling Chu was far away in the capital of the Xia Kingdom.

It's also being done via live video streaming.

I'm keeping a close eye on this Auction.

But at this moment.

Ling Chu was lying upside down on the bed, with her buttocks facing the sky.

Only in this way.

He would only be able to look slightly normal when the camera was switched to his buttocks from time to time.

"My True Self, just give in to me!"

"Just let me out and give me a body, and I can completely wipe out those Bearded Pirates!"

"Right, I need that Sequence Slayer's Puppet Body!"

"Who are you talking to! I am the True Self! I'm not letting you out!"

"I am the True Self! I am the True Self!"

"We are all the True Self!"

"Pah! That woman named Ling Chu Chu is not the True Self!"

"Speaking of which, I, Ling Chu, am a true man, how could I possibly have a woman's personality..."

"Shut up, all of you!"

Ling Chu couldn't help but roar out in anger.

"Those Bearded Pirates actually dared to use this video as evidence!"

"Aren't you afraid I'll expose their secrets?!"

"That Goldbeard, that Silverbeard... they must be Golden Wing and Silver Wing from Tianhuang Martial Arts University!"

"Are all those people in Jiangcheng blind?! Can't they see that?!"

"Hehehe... Are you True Self? Who would dare offend the Principal of Tianhuang Martial Arts University? Even if they figured it out, they wouldn't dare say anything..."

"Of course, someone has to be the first to step forward, like me! Give me the Slaughterer Sequence! I'll be the one to take the lead! That Goldbeard seems to be Slayer too, I'm going to go and meet him!"

"By consuming his Slaughterer Sequence, one might obtain the legendary Sequence..."
