Chapter 642 - 614 Wanlong Pavilion
Young Master Chu had provoked him, even wanted to kill him, and what's more, he was the son of an Elder of the Qinglong Gang, so now, Lin Tian had already harbored the intent to kill him.
Lin Tian asked, "They say Young Master Chu is not to be trifled with, but what do the other two 'untouchables' mean?"
The attendant replied, "The Holy Shield must not be broken. Here in Wolong Bay, there is a shield which our Gang Leader accidentally discovered. It's an ultimate treasure, exceptionally sturdy. No Divine Weapon can leave so much as a scratch on the shield, and thus, it was named the Holy Shield."
"Our Gang Leader once said that if anyone could break the Holy Shield, they would be rewarded with three hundred million. If they are willing to join the Qinglong Gang, they would instantly be granted the position of an Elder."
"Oh... I see. Then what does it mean that the Overlord is unbeatable?" Lin Tian asked again.
"Here in Wolong Bay, there's a man known as the King of Chu, incredibly fierce and brave. He can swing his arm with a force of eighty thousand catties of Divine Power. Since he appeared, he has fought countless warriors and has never been defeated. Often, those who fought him could not withstand even three of the King of Chu's moves and would be injured or killed, hence the saying that the Overlord is unbeatable."
Eighty thousand catties of mighty strength was still twenty thousand catties less compared to Lin Tianyi. He hasn't met Lin Tian, which is why he earned the title of King of Chu. Should he ever meet Lin Tian, Lin Tian would beat him to the point where even his mother wouldn't recognize him.
The attendant continued, "Our Gang Leader also said, if anyone could defeat the King of Chu, he would immediately have his daughter betrothed to them. The Gang Leader's daughter is a match for the Heavenly Immortal, a peerless beauty. Whoever becomes the Qinglong Gang's Imperial Son-in-law will be second to none, with thousands under his command!"
As he spoke, he laughed foolishly, as if he were deeply frustrated and infatuated with the daughter of the Qinglong Gang's Gang Leader.
"Interesting," Lin Tian muttered to himself.
Young Master Chu is not to be provoked, the Holy Shield is not to be broken, the Overlord is unbeatable.
Now, Lin Tian had already provoked Young Master Chu, turning one 'untouchable' into 'touchable.' Well then, he might as well make the other two 'touchable' as well!
Three hundred million, Lin Tian could not care less. The Qinglong Gang Leader's daughter? Lin Tian cared even less. What he was doing was to infuriate the Qinglong Gang, to completely infuriate them.
Lin Tian spoke up, "In the afternoon, take me to see the Holy Shield and the King of Chu. I want to meet them."
"Ah...!" The attendant exclaimed, staring at Lin Tian with an incredulous look as if to say: Sir, have you lost your mind?
"Ah what? Didn't you hear what I said?"
"Sir, I heard you. I'll take you there this afternoon."
..., ...
Young Master Chu was beaten up, beaten very badly, he lost half his teeth. When he was young, his father wouldn't even dare to hit him, but now he had been trampled on the face by Lin Tian's foot, and was even forced to call Lin Tian grandpa. Young Master Chu had never suffered such humiliation; he must have revenge.
Rage was already rising from within his heart. He vowed not to rest until he had torn Lin Tian to pieces.
He shouted at a bald man, "You, summon all the thugs from Wolong Bay, now."
It was the first time the bald man had seen Young Master Chu in such a predicament, and driven by intense curiosity, he ventured to ask, "Young Master, what happened to your face?"
"Smack!"
Young Master Chu slapped the bald man across the face.
This was his Nidhogg, and the bald man had no sense of tact. This kind of thing, he dared to ask.
"Damn it, are you deaf? Didn't you hear me tell you to call the thugs?"
"Heard you! I'm on it, right away."
Clutching his face, the bald man ran off.
"Remember, all of them, every single thug," Young Master Chu emphasized from behind.
Then minutes later, the bald man managed to round up over a hundred people, all of them experts either at the Condensed Mirror stage or on the verge of it.
"Young Master Chu, just say the word, who do we need to fight?" the bald man called out.
"Let's go," Young Master Chu said slyly, full of rage as he made his way toward Lin Tian's private room.
But halfway there, an underling hurriedly came up to Young Master Chu.
"Damn it, can't you wait and talk later? Can't you see I'm busy now?" Young Master Chu snapped angrily.
The underling trembled at the scolding but still mustered the courage to speak, "Young Master Chu, Prince Wang is here, he's specifically asking to see you."
"What, my second brother is here?" Young Master Chu exclaimed.
Prince Wang, named Wang Hao, was also the son of an Elder from the Qinglong Gang, with a status higher than his.
Young Master Chu clenched his fists, gazing angrily at Lin Tian's room, and said, "You're lucky, kid. I'll let you live a few minutes longer. Someone, assign a few men to watch over the people in that room. Everyone else, follow me, protect Prince Wang."
"Yes!" the crowd responded in unison.
Young Master Chu glared bitterly at the door to Lin Tian's room and departed furiously.
..., ...
After finishing the fruit platter, Lin Tian was bored out of his mind. He had waited for half an hour, yet Young Master Chu had not returned to seek revenge.
He asked the attendant, "Young Master Chu couldn't truly be afraid of me, could he? Why hasn't he come to seek his revenge?"
To hear this, the attendant looked at Lin Tian in disbelief. It was his first time encountering someone like Lin Tian. Others wouldn't dare to provoke Young Master Chu, but Lin Tian, on the contrary, was hoping for trouble from Young Master Chu. Was this man right in the head?
The attendant answered, "Young Master Chu has always been a tyrant. Logically speaking, he should have come back for revenge. Why he hasn't come now, I have no idea. How about I go out and make some inquiries for you?"
Lin Tian said, "Never mind, let's go out together."
It was now afternoon, and the number of visitors was gradually increasing. Wolong Bay became more bustling, imbued with an air of lavishness everywhere.
People who wallowed in that atmosphere for long enough, even the most exceptional ones, would become listless, depraved, losing their passion and fighting spirit.
Lin Tian did not immediately seek out Young Master Chu. He seldom had the chance to visit Wolong Bay, so Lin Tian decided to look around to see just how crazy this place could be.
"Take me to the most entertaining, most thrilling place," Lin Tian told the server.
The server replied, "If you're talking about the most fun place in Wolong Bay, that would be Wanlong Pavilion."
"Wanlong Pavilion, what kind of place is it, what do they do?" Lin Tian asked.
"Wanlong Pavilion is where the crowd throngs the most. To put it directly, it's like a supermarket or a pawn shop. There, you can buy the sharpest weapons, delicacies rarely seen in the world, jewels that cost a fortune, and you can also purchase beauties, slave warriors, of course, you can even buy the life of your enemy, as long as you can afford the price. Here, you can have anything you want."
"Such chaos, even beauties and slave warriors are available for purchase," Lin Tian thought to himself.
"Let's go, take me there to see."
The server led the way and soon, they saw a gate made of gold. Diamonds, jade, and other jewels were inlaid on it. The extravagance of a single door was enough to hint at the high expenses one could expect at Wanlong Pavilion.
As they approached the entrance, a staff member with an electronic device stopped Lin Tian.
The server quickly explained to Lin Tian, "The cost of consuming at Wanlong Pavilion is extremely high and not affordable for ordinary people. To prevent people from coming in just to look around, our gang leader has mandated that anyone who wants to enter Wanlong Pavilion must show proof of wealth. Usually, those with a net worth below forty million are not allowed to enter Wanlong Pavilion."
People with less than forty million were not allowed to enter. Ninety-nine percent of people could not earn forty million in their lifetime. Wanlong Pavilion really was established for the top-tier wealthy.
"Proof of wealth, would a bank card work?" asked Lin Tian.
"Yes, it would."
Lin Tian took out his "largest" bank card, not knowing exactly how much money it contained, but this card was directly linked to Tianyi Pharma. As much as Tianyi Pharma earned, that's how much money would be on Lin Tian's card.
Lin Tian handed the bank card to the staff member, who, seeing Lin Tian's attire, smirked contemptuously, thinking he wouldn't be worth a thousand yuan, and disdainfully swiped the card.
"Country bumpkin, trying to enter a place like this," the staff member thought with a sigh, unconsciously looking down at the screen.
The screen displayed a long string of dense numbers, a really long and numerous series of digits.
So much money?
The staff member took a deep breath, thinking he was seeing things, wiped his eyes, and looked again more carefully.
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million, ten million, billion, ten billion, hundred billion, trillion."
Getting to the trillion mark, her mouth agape and eyes wide, her pupils dilated as if she had spotted a prehistoric monster.
To be precise, there were a total of fourteen digits: 1,887,564,372,697.78!
With so much money, it was difficult to even read the figure in one breath. More than eighteen hundred billion, a staggering eighteen hundred billion.
So rich, so damn rich!
She stared at Lin Tian in panic, her face emblazoned with two big characters.
Shock! Shock! Shock!
A billionaire dressed in clothes not worth a thousand yuan, and what was more ridiculous, the shoes Lin Tian wore were street stall goods, definitely not in the triple digits.
This is what you call low-profile.
Today, she finally understood a saying.
Do not judge by appearances, the sea cannot be measured in bushels!
She stared blankly at Lin Tian, completely forgetting her job at hand, her eyes wide, fixating on Lin Tian to the point where it made him feel uncomfortable.
The server beside her was puzzled, wondering what was going on. Why was she spacing out? Could it be that Lin Tian didn't have enough money?
The server stepped forward, took an inadvertent glance at the screen, and was taken aback, his body trembling.
He tried to read the numbers on the screen.
"One hundred eighty-seven million..."
"No, that's not right, not right."
"One billion eight hundred seventy-five million..."
"No, not that either, still wrong."
"One hundred eighty billion eight thousand...!"
"Incorrect, still missing a digit."
"1,887,564,372,697.78 yuan!"
Finally, the server managed to articulate the number, nearly losing his mind by the end of it.
He slowly lifted his gaze to Lin Tian, his admiration reaching an all-time high.
More than eighteen hundred billion.
Super rich, absolutely super rich, the tycoon of tycoons.
What do you think?
