Thinking that his offer worked, Lin Linyi immediately hugged this only chance of his.
"A- all of my wealth! There is at least a few hundreds of gold!! Take all of it!"
"Whoa!"
"F- a few hundreds! Not copper but gold coin!"
"Holy s**t! As expected of the Lin Family, even a person like him has a big wealth under him."
Many cried out in surprise, as something like a few hundreds of gold coin was akin to a dream for mere commoners here.
Having one gold coin? That was great as you can spend almost a month in leisure without working.
Having ten gold coins? Forget about having a leisure life, became a merchant was a good choice for a commoner.
Having a hundred gold coins? It was enough to make someone live in leisure for his whole life. But if someone was ambitious enough, one could go to a better place, bigger city, for the better chance to become rich.
And proclamation of having a few hundreds of gold coin was beyond the imagination of these commoners. But even so, their expression was not good.
Why? Because they understood that those amounts of money were all dirty money - there were stains of their fellow unfortunate commoner, the killed commoner, the sold commoner, and many more.
But even so, some of the commoners had greed on their face, showing their ugly side.
It was human nature, there was nothing right and nothing wrong.
Many wished that Liao Yun would refuse such an offer because it was a money full of their fellow commoners, the innocent people who were exploited by dirty scum like Lin Linyi, like the Lin Family.
But some also wished that Liao Yun would accept the offer since making a trouble for Lin Linyi was equal to slapping the Lin Family in the face. Even though Liao Yun was strong, very strong, going against the gigantic family like the Lin Family was akin to stand in front of the hell's gate.
Both sides were not wrong, but they couldn't dictate Liao Yun's decision.
Even though the surroundings had a various expression, Liao Yun was still indifferent as her eyes stared directly into Lin Linyi's eyes, as if she didn't care about anything else.
"Ye- yeah, a few hundreds of gold coin." But seeing the unmoved Liao Yun, Lin Linyi grew nervous. "Ah, there is also some asset, fixed asset, at least a hundred gold coins! I will give it to you too! Along with everything in that brothel, I will give it to you please! Just let me go! Spare this lowly one life! A big expert like you don't have to care about this lowly one, and I can assure you that the Lin Family will not chase after you!"
Lin Linyi grew desperate in his pleading, but Fu Tao's eyebrows twitched as he was focused on a certain word.
"""What? Brothel?"""
[What kind of person that would present a brothel toward a woman?] Even though Fu Tao had the urge to cry, he didn't do anything since he knew that Liao Yun didn't know anything about the brothel, not to mention the relationship between a man and a woman.
"Do- don't worry! This brothel has a good revenue! A gold coin revenue a day! How about it? It is big, right? You don't have to worry about it! You don't have to pay anything because all of the worker there are all slaves! They work for free! See? All of it is a goldmine! So, just release me, please! I don't want to do anything here!"
"Yo- you can do anything with those slaves, whether you want to kill them, or sell them as a toy, all up to yo- "
Pa!
With her indifferent expression, Liao Yun just slapped Lin Linyi's cheek. "Shut your crap."
Pa!
"You are too noisy."
Pa!
"Your face is ugly."
Pa!
"Disturbing my mood."
Pa!
"I don't care about your money."
Pa!
"I will just rob your place later."
Pa!
"Lin Family? S**t Family, you mean?"
Pa!
"Easy peasy."
Pa!
"I will take care of them later."
Pa!
"But you,"
Pa!
"I will screw you."
Pa!
"Up and down."
Pa!
Liao Yun didn't continue her slapping since the ugly man in front of her was ugly beyond words. Of course, all thanked to her slap.
With each spa, many exclaimed, many were surprised, but a slight smile crept on their face.
The tyrant was being humiliated.
Even so, no one would blatantly encourage that act since no one wanted their family implicated in this matter.
There were eyes everywhere and anywhere, even the thickest wall couldn't hide the corpse's stench.
But even so, they never moved their gaze from the swollen Lin Linyi, everyone was dazzled by that figure, the biggest figure among all of them.
Lin Linyi's face was all swollen along with blood smeared all over. His eyes couldn't be seen anymore, not to mention any other facial feature. His face was much more hideous than a Fierce Beast. No one was comfortable when they saw the hideous face, but no one took their eyes off from Lin Linyi.
They were all gladdened, thankful, and gloating of the misfortune befallen at Lin Linyi.
As part of the Lin Family, Lin Linyi was known as a tyrant, the death messenger of the Lin Huangshu. Going against Lin Linyi didn't only mean going against the Lin Family's authority, but also risking to offend Lin Huangshu.
As the youngest Young Master of the Lin Family, Lin Huangshu had the worst reputation if compared with his brothers.
The First Young Master was well-known in the military. Even though he himself was not in the Black Iron City for some time, his achievement was the pride of the city.
The Second Young Master was akin to a wind, there was no any news about him, as if he never existed. Many speculated that he was killed and the Lin Family tried to hide this fact, since it was a blemish for the Lin Family's reputation.
The Third Young Master was the pampered son because he was born from Lin Pinghan's main wife. He grew spoiled and became a good-for-nothing. Playing in a brothel once every day, and no one from the Lin Family dared to reprimand him.
The Fourth Young Miss was similar to the Second Young Master, but the rumours about her were various. From the most beautiful woman in the Black Iron City, a crippled woman, taken by some mysterious expert, an assassin, and even Viscount Hammer was eyeing her.
And the Youngest Young Master, Lin Huangshu was known with many things. Debauchery, random killing on the street, forcefully took any beautiful woman, and many more. And all of them was bad rumours, as many had fallen in his evil claw.
Hence, no one felt weird when Lin Linyi was eyeing for Old Man's granddaughter.
Many might have to be careful about the Lin Family, but Liao Yun was not one of them. After clenching her fist, she uppercut on Lin Linyi's stomach. It was a clean blow, and Lin Linyi's body was thrown upward, somersaulted far above the surrounding's building, and fell at no one knew where.
But there was one thing that many was sure. Lin Linyi was finished. Even if he did not die, he was not far from it.
Putting her fist on her waist, Liao Yun humphed toward the direction where Lin Linyi fell.
"Don't be proud, little Yun. Let's go." Mingyue rolled her eyes when she saw Liao Yun's expression. She was too prideful and content of what she had done.
Ever since Liao Yun started her slapping exercise, Mingyue had asked Xiao Wu to go in the middle of the crowd, toward Liao Yun and her useless sidekick.
"Go? Where?" Liao Yun didn't expect that Mingyue would urge her to leave. She just savoured the earlier fight, and she wanted to enjoy it for some more.
She felt that Mingyue was no different from a party-pooper.
Mingyue just shrugged her shoulders and said, "Fetching little Qi before we hunt for some Fierce Beast, of course. You don't want to? Fine, let's return-"
As if flipping one hand, Liao Yun grumpy mood disappeared and she was elated by that reminder.
Fighting some wimp or a bunch of Fierce Beast, which one was better? Of course, the Fierce Beast. Only Liao Yun would choose such an answer.
"Go! Let's go!" With a wide grin, Liao Yun strode the street at the direction of Gu Wen's inn, with Mingyue and Xiao Wu right behind her.
And again, Fu Tao was left alone.
"… " Fu Tao was not thick-skinned enough, thus he chased after them in no time.
