111: Chapter 111 Mobile Decoy Post
Wang Yan swallowed hard.
Given the current situation, even if he were any stupider, he would have guessed that this student he once insulted at will had probably become some powerful figure.
"No... impossible..."
"This must be fake..."
Wang Yan suddenly shivered, then roared with a facade of bravado.
"Lin Mo! Stop putting on an act!"
"So what if you got lucky and found a powerful backer? Weren't you still just a dog who used to carry my shoes?"
"Now that your wings have grown strong, you dare to come looking for trouble with me?!"
"Do you believe that I—"
Chu Tianye took a step forward.
"Insolent."
With just those two words, Wang Yan subconsciously took a step back.
Chu Tianye glanced at Wang Yan with a look that was like he was looking at a dead man.
"Wang Yan, is it? It seems you still haven't grasped the situation."
"In the defense of Jiang City two days ago, Lin Mo single-handedly repelled a Fifth-Order Beast King and saved the entire Jiang City."
"Now in the whole of Jiang City, there is not a single person who doesn't know Lin Mo's name."
"The entire Great Xia is singing Lin Mo's praises—Great Xia's number one genius, the Guardian Deity of Jiang City."
"What kind of thing are you that he would go out of his way to trouble you?"
Wang Yan's brain buzzed.
"Impossible... this is impossible..."
He shook his head, his face filled with disbelief.
"You're just a White Trait Awakener, how could you possibly repel a fifth-order beast, let alone a Fifth-Order Beast King?"
"Heh, there's no need to make up such lies to scare me. I know exactly how much you're worth..."
"Noisy."
Chu Tianye gave a casual wave of his hand.
Wang Yan was sent flying, crashing into the wall, half of his face swelling up high.
He habitually prepared to roar, but after seeing Chu Tianye's eyes, he chickened out.
The taste of blood filled his mouth, and half of his face burned with pain.
Wang Yan stared at Lin Mo for a long time.
Then, he suddenly laughed.
"Heh... hahaha..."
He laughed until tears almost came out:
"Lin Mo, oh Lin Mo, you've really done it."
"Your wings are strong now, and you've found such a big tree to take shelter under."
"What, coming to see me now, do you want to take revenge on me?"
He struggled to climb up, leaning against the wall:
"Heh, how the tables have turned. I didn't expect that the timid boy from back then would also have his day!"
Lin Mo finally spoke.
"Teacher Wang."
"Do you know why I would waste my time to come see you?"
"Be... because of what..."
"Because I want to give myself... no, give this body's past an explanation!"
Wang Yan's expression changed instantly.
"You... what do you want to do..."
"Nothing much!" Lin Mo stood up, looking down at him from above.
"I just want to settle some old scores with you."
Wang Yan's heart skipped a beat.
"What... what old scores..."
Lin Mo looked at him quietly, not saying a word.
But it was this kind of silence that made Wang Yan even more uneasy.
"You..." Wang Yan swallowed hard, "What do you want to say..."
Lin Mo finally spoke:
"Teacher Wang, you haven't forgotten what you did yourself, have you?"
Wang Yan's face changed instantly.
Of course he remembered.
How could he ever forget.
A year ago, he saw Lin Mo's sister, Lin Xi, for the first time.
That woman...
That woman was truly breathtakingly beautiful.
At that time, he had developed designs on her.
But Lin Xi completely ignored him.
So he turned his attention to Lin Mo.
At that time, Lin Mo was just a green boy who had just entered school, weak and incompetent, someone anyone could bully.
Later, it just so happened to be the time for the freshman internship experience, so he used Lin Mo's internship post allocation to threaten Lin Xi, trying to make her submit to him.
But that bitch Lin Xi would rather let Lin Mo die than give in.
So he became fly into a rage out of humiliation and deliberately assigned Lin Mo to the Mobile Bait Post.
That post was a death trap.
For every mission, the survival rate was less than ten percent.
He wanted to kill Lin Mo and be done with it.
Anyway, no one would care if a powerless loser died.
But he never expected that Lin Mo not only didn't die but also found a powerful backer!
"No..."
Wang Yan's voice began to tremble.
"Teacher Wang, your memory isn't very good."
"Do you need me to help you remember?"
"For example, how did you threaten my sister?"
"And how did you throw me into the Mobile Bait Post?"
His voice was very calm, as if he were stating something that had nothing to do with him.
But in Wang Yan's ears, it sounded like a death warrant from the King of Hell.
"No... it wasn't..."
Wang Yan shook his head, and sweat began to bead on his forehead.
"That... that was all a misunderstanding..."
"Misunderstanding?"
Lin Mo gave a light chuckle.
"Teacher Wang, I remember that's not what you said back then."
Wang Yan's face turned deathly pale instantly.
"I... I..."
He wanted to defend himself, but the words were stuck in his throat.
"It seems you haven't forgotten."
Lin Mo stood up and walked slowly toward Wang Yan.
Every step felt like it was treading on Wang Yan's heart.
"When you sent me to the Mobile Bait Post, did you ever think there would be a day like today?"
"You truly wanted me to die, Teacher Wang."
"No... Lin Mo..."
Wang Yan felt a bone-chilling cold.
"I was wrong..."
"I really know I was wrong..."
He fell to his knees with a thud.
"I shouldn't have had designs on your sister..."
"I shouldn't have framed you..."
"I beg you... give me a break..."
"I'll kowtow to you..."
"Thud, thud, thud."
His head hit the concrete floor, making a loud banging sound.
In the eyes Lin Mo used to look down at him, there was no anger, no satisfaction.
Only indifference, complete and utter indifference.
"Let you go?"
Lin Mo spoke.
"Sure."
Wang Yan's eyes lit up instantly.
"Really?!"
He looked up, snot and tears smeared all over his face, looking incredibly pathetic.
Lin Mo nodded.
"Our Jiang City happens to be short of people right now, especially in the Mobile Bait Post. I think you're quite suited for this position."
"You should still have some memory of this post, right?"
"It's just the right time for you to experience it too."
Wang Yan's face turned deathly pale instantly.
"No..."
He shook his head, tears and snot flowing down together.
"Don't..."
"Lin Mo... I beg you..."
He crawled forward on his knees a few steps, grabbing Lin Mo's trouser leg.
"I beg you... give me a break..."
"I'll never dare to do it again..."
Responding to him was Lin Mo's calm voice.
"Teacher Wang, I didn't come here today to hear you beg for mercy."
"But to tell you that the tables indeed turn."
"Everything now is what you deserve."
Wang Yan completely broke down.
"Don't... don't..."
"Lin Mo! I'll be your dog! I'll work like an ox or a horse for you!"
"Don't send me to the Mobile Bait Post..."
"People will die... they really will die..."
Lin Mo gave him one last look, then turned and left indifferently.
Chu Tianye followed closely behind.
"Send him away first thing tomorrow morning."
"Don't let him dirty Lin Mo's eyes."
The cell door closed.
The light disappeared.
Wang Yan slumped on the ground, his eyes empty.
The boy who once carried his shoes.
The loser he could trample at will.
Now he didn't even have the qualification to look up to him.
And all of this was caused by himself.
If back then, he hadn't had designs on Lin Xi.
Maybe...
No!
There are no maybes.
It's all too late.
