199: The strong take direct action, the weak can only protest
“Alright, Aunt Zhou, there’s no need to say more. I’m not interested in the Zodiac Society, and I never intended to join.
Don’t forget, I only agreed to become the Deputy Hall Master of the War God Hall, and all actions of my Ling Tian Independent Regiment are decided by me,” Lin Ling said.
As soon as he spoke, Dragon Lord immediately looked at Ren She with some concern.
These old guys had worked together for a lifetime; they understood each other almost as well as they understood themselves.
Ren She, that old fellow, had never been easy to deal with.
With Lin Ling being so arrogant, that old fellow was probably going to make a big deal out of it.
Indeed, as soon as Lin Ling finished speaking, Ren She spoke again.
“Hmph! So arrogant at such a young age? But how can a young person not be a little arrogant? Your personality fits my taste perfectly. I have a granddaughter who is 28 this year… ”
“Cough cough cough… Your granddaughter’s children are already in elementary school… ”
Dragon Lord coughed dryly, interrupting Ren She’s words.
The others were all stunned.
Ren She, that old fellow, was just spouting nonsense, so why did the mood change so suddenly?
“What are you coughing for? I’m talking about my great-granddaughter. That little girl is nine years old, not much younger than Lin Ling. At most ten years… ”
Ren She said grumpily, his somewhat sinister eyes now filled with admiration.
The old fellow’s intentions were so obvious, they could be heard all the way in the Southern Hemisphere.
“Don’t you have any shame? Don’t talk about those unrealistic things. Get to the point. If you scare my great-grandson, I’ll cripple you,” Dragon Lord said fiercely.
“You think I’m scared of you? Come on, if you’re my brother, hit me!” Ren She rolled up his sleeves and struck a fighting pose.
Looking at the two red-faced, thick-necked old men, Lin Ling suddenly felt a headache.
Ren She’s sudden change in attitude towards him was indeed somewhat unexpected.
Just then, Zhou Weiyun finally couldn’t stand it anymore and stood up, saying, “Seniors, let’s get down to business. You can go outside and fight later, and I’ll be your referee.”
“Hmph!”
“Hmph!”
The two snorted coldly at the same time and simultaneously turned their heads away.
“Lin Ling, next we’re going to talk about the Newcomer Tournament. This event is completely meaningless to you.
No newcomer from any country can pose a threat to you, but if you want to get more resources, you must find an opportunity to show your strength to the whole world.
The rules of this world have never changed: only those with hard fists have the right to speak!
Only by beating those idiots into submission will they not dare to play tricks on you,” Zhou Weiyun said to Lin Ling.
“Aunt Zhou, don’t worry, I already have the ability to protect myself, and it’s time to show my strength. This time at Devil Island, I will let everyone understand what Dragon Country’s power is,” Lin Ling replied with a smile.
“Good, Auntie awaits your good news!” Zhou Weiyun said with eyes full of admiration, “Now that everything is handled, let’s go back to the base. We’ll rest today and depart for Devil Island tomorrow.”
Speaking of Devil Island, Lin Ling’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Five Devil Island admission tickets immediately appeared in his hand.
“Aunt Zhou, look what I got?” Lin Ling said.
Zhou Weiyun looked at the admission tickets in his hand in disbelief and said, “Where did you get these? There are five of them! Now your Ling Tian Independent Regiment can all go.”
Lin Ling nodded and said with a smile, “Actually, we only need nine. I have some opportunities; entering secret realm instances can be done without an admission ticket.”
As soon as he said this, everyone present began to look at each other.
“What does it mean to enter a secret realm instance without an admission ticket?”
“Does that mean you can enter and exit whenever you want?”
“That’s too heaven-defying! How much money would that save?”
A series of exclamations immediately erupted from the crowd.
Many people looked at Lin Ling as if they were looking at a divine being.
No wonder they said this young man was synonymous with miracles.
How many more incredible things did he possess?
Zhou Weiyun also had a joyful expression. “Lin Ling, this extra ticket won’t be usable next year if it’s not used this year. What do you plan to do with it?”
“I haven’t thought about it yet,” Lin Ling said truthfully.
Suddenly, an elder walked over from the side, somewhat excitedly.
“Excuse me, young friend, can you sell this admission ticket to me?” The speaker was none other than Bai Chongyue, the head of the Bai family.
“You are?”
Lin Ling saw his white hair and polite demeanor, so he also asked respectfully.
However, the white daoist robe worn by the old man in front of him looked somewhat familiar.
“Hahaha… I am Bai Chongyue, the head of the Kyoto Bai family, and my daoist name is Baishan. You can call me Old Brother Bai,” Bai Chongyue said with a smile.
“Old Brother Bai, you and Bai Zhi are?” A strange image suddenly appeared in Lin Ling’s mind.
“Little Ye is also my grandson. I came here this time precisely to buy a Devil Island admission ticket for him.”
Bai Chongyue said with a beaming smile.
But the flesh on Lin Ling’s face couldn’t help but twitch. Damn it, you’re calling me brother, how would your grandson feel when he sees me?
“Bai Zhi, oh Bai Zhi, you can’t blame me for this. I didn’t deliberately take advantage of you; your grandfather insisted on calling me brother. Next time we meet, your grandfather will make you call me Grandpa Lin, so don’t cry.”
A demonic smile quietly appeared on Lin Ling’s face, and he directly said to Bai Chongyue, “Okay, Old Brother Bai, I’ll sell this admission ticket to you. As for the price, the market price will do.”
Before long, Lin Ling’s account received a transfer notification of 5 billion.
Lin Ling was slightly surprised. He had inquired, and although Devil Island admission tickets were precious, they were only about 3 billion each on the market.
“This Old Man Bai is interesting.”
Lin Ling thought to himself, but didn’t say much, only that his goodwill towards Bai Chongyue had increased significantly.
Just as the group was about to leave, Jiang Shan Yi’s expression suddenly changed dramatically.
“Hall Master, Old Zhong sent a message that the Nezha squad, responsible for guarding the Devil Island instance, was attacked. Captain Meng Ze died in battle, and the other four were seriously injured,” Jiang Shan Yi said.
As soon as this was said, everyone’s expressions darkened.
Dragon Lord’s body surged with killing intent. “Who did it?”
“Two elite squads from India sent us a distress signal from a neighboring country. After Meng Ze led his team to the scene, they were ambushed by the two Indian elite squads working together.
The surviving team members said they saw Europeans, and this organized and premeditated ambush might involve America-Alliance,” Jiang Shan Yi said with a heavy expression.
“Shameless!” Dragon Lord immediately roared in anger, “Are those murderous bastards still on Devil Island?”
Jiang Shan Yi gave a wry smile, “Although they killed Meng Ze, we also killed three of them. The rest have fled back to their country. According to international treaties, in disputes occurring in public areas, once one party returns to their country, they cannot be pursued into the other party’s territory.”
“Damn it, I’m going to wipe out those Indians right now! That country is as annoying as those dog-faced Japanese; they have no idea of their own strength!” Ren She stood up, ready to charge out.
“Old Snake, you’re already old; it’s time to let the young people get some exercise. Besides, considering your identity, if you make a move, the world will descend into chaos,” Dragon Lord said, his gaze falling on Lin Ling.
He had just said to find an opportunity to show his strength, and now the opportunity had arrived.
Ren She suddenly looked at Lin Ling: “Kid, do you dare to go to India and kill people?”
A sharp glint immediately appeared in Lin Ling’s eyes. “Why wouldn’t I dare?”
“Hahaha… Good, good, good! You have guts, but you also belong to the War God Hall, so going would easily draw criticism,” Ren She said.
Lin Ling’s lips curled slightly. “Criticism? Whoever dares to criticize me, I’ll go kill them and let them speak with their strength.”
“That would affect our Dragon Country’s international image,” Zhou Weiyun said with some concern.
“Image?” Lin Ling’s face showed a cold smile. “Then I’ll withdraw from the War God Hall. The strong don’t need reasons; only the weak protest!”
As soon as he said this, the breathing of all the big shots present became rapid.
“Ling Tian personnel!” Lin Ling suddenly roared.
“Here!”
“Here!”
Everyone responded loudly.
A bronze mask appeared in Lin Ling’s hand, and he put it on his face, his lips slightly curved as he said:
“My fish got lost while passing through India. We’re going to find the fish now. If we can’t find it, tonight the Ganges River will run red with blood!”
