Chapter 645 617: The Sweaty Blood Treasure Horse
Lin Tian produced the Diamond Token, proving he had a fortune of no less than a hundred billion, leaving those who had just mocked him red-faced with shame. A hundred billion, several times the value of their own net worth, caused the color to drain from the faces of many, and a few of the older ones simply couldn't bear it and promptly left.
Even Liu Yuntian's face showed a trace of a different color, for although he had not ridiculed Lin Tian just now, the appearance of the Diamond Token had certainly sent a jolt through him.
The Diamond Token represented a hundred billion in assets. His father had the power to possess a Diamond Token, but he didn't have that capacity, at least not yet.
Furthermore, Lin Tian looked extremely young, and in his eyes, a tenacity shone through. Liu Yuntian concluded that Lin Tian was not someone to provoke. It was better not to offend such an individual.
Liu Yuntian now sounded a retreat, flashed a smile at Lin Tian, and quietly walked away.
The crowd, overwhelmed with shame, could no longer stay and scattered away in defeat.
Soon, only three brutes who were selling the little girl, Lin Tian, and a servant remained.
Lin Tian handed his bank card to the brutes, who now treated him with the utmost respect and received it with both hands.
After a successful card swipe, the girl belonged to Lin Tian.
The girl's clothes were tattered, and after having been groped by those men, her private parts were all exposed—an utter temptation.
Lin Tian suppressed his carnal desires and took off his coat to drape it over the little girl.
At first, the little girl was scared, but gradually she realized that Lin Tian was different from those who had wanted to buy her. Lin Tian seemed to value something other than her body.
Lin Tian took the little girl's hand and led her outside, then, stuffed a wad of cash into her hand.
"Little sister, your father has sold you, so don't go back. Take this money, go to Wu'an City, and look for Shen Mengyi at Tianyi Pharma. I'll talk to her in a while and she'll arrange a job for you, to help you survive."
"This...!"
The little girl hesitated before enthusiastically nodding and saying, "You're a good person."
"I'm a good person?" It felt truly good to be praised.
Then, the little girl got into a taxi. If nothing unexpected happened, she would meet Shen Mengyi by tonight and start a comparatively stable life from there.
Saving the little girl, Lin Tian suddenly felt so proud, especially proud.
Immediately after that, he and the servant made their way back to Wanlong Pavilion, but now the place was bustling with excitement: a crowd was rushing in one direction.
"What's this for?" Lin Tian muttered.
The attendant hurried to find out and quickly came back with an answer.
The attendant said, "Young Master Wang has also arrived at Wolong Bay. He has presented a Ferghana horse to Young Master Chu, and everyone is rushing over eagerly to see the Ferghana horse."
"Young Master Wang, the Ferghana horse?" Lin Tian muttered.
"Young Master Wang, named Wang Hao, is also a son of an Elder of the Qinglong Gang. He loves horses the most and has the best relationship with Young Master Chu."
Young Master Wang, Wang Hao, the son of an Elder of the Qinglong Gang.
Ha ha ha ha...!
Hearing this news, Lin Tian could hardly contain his glee.
He had come to Wolong Bay to provoke the Qinglong Gang. Originally thinking of killing Young Master Chu and angering an Elder of the Qinglong Gang—he knew the Qinglong Gang would surely be furious. But who would have thought that the son of another Elder had also arrived? If Lin Tian could take them all down together, the rage of two Elders would definitely be interesting.
"Lead the way."
The attendant walked ahead, and Lin Tian, brimming with excitement, followed quickly.
The throng moved densely, with nearly two to three hundred people surrounding the area, attracting nearly all the wealthy who had come to Wolong Bay.
In the middle of the crowd stood two young men, one was the Young Master Chu who had just been beaten by Lin Tian, and the other was Young Master Wang, Wang Hao.
Alongside the two men stood a large horse, nearly as tall as a man, its body a fiery red. The sweat that dripped from it was the color of blood, and so it was called an esteemed horse.
The esteemed horses were introduced from the Xiongnu and mated with the local horses by Emperor Wu of Han, greatly enhancing the cavalry strength of the Han Dynasty.
Now, esteemed horses were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, and a purebred was virtually impossible to find. However, even a horse with a mere trace of the esteemed bloodline was considered a treasure.
Young Master Wang caressed his beloved horse and then handed the reins to Young Master Chu.
Thereafter, Young Master Wang shouted to everyone, "Young Master Chu and I are as close as brothers, like bosom friends who appreciate each other's worth. Today, I am gifting my beloved horse to Young Master Chu as a token of my affection."
"Thank you, Brother Wang," Young Master Chu said, bowing respectfully and lovingly stroking the esteemed horse.
Youth Master Chu was somewhat knowledgeable about horses, but not nearly as much as Young Master Wang. Nonetheless, anyone with even a slight understanding of horses would fall in love with riding an esteemed horse, even if they didn't initially care for horses.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the esteemed horse, coveting it. In society at that time, the esteemed horses were truly priceless, and sought after with great wealth.
"Young Master Wang is generous. To simply give away an esteemed horse – I am impressed!"
"Young Master Wang's love for his horse is evident, to be able to give the esteemed horse to Young Master Chu, that really shows the deep bond between you two brothers!"
"Your bond is even closer than that of blood brothers."
"I am envious and admiring!"
...,....
The crowd praised him one after another, and Young Master Wang was quite pleased with himself. His gift of the horse was to forge a good relationship with Young Master Chu, and clearly, he had achieved his purpose.
Youth Master Chu was also overjoyed. The esteemed horse, this was indeed a coveted horse. To ride it even once in his lifetime would make his death worthwhile.
Lin Tian also squeezed through the crowd to take a look. He had to admit, this esteemed horse was a rare sight, making even him somewhat tempted.
He truly wanted to lead the esteemed horse home, with his junior wife sitting in front, and his senior wife behind, taking them for a ride.
Riding the esteemed horse would be so much more stylish than driving a car.
At this thought, a song came to mind for Lin Tian.
"Let us keep each other company in this bustling world, and live a life of freedom and ease!"
"Riding horses at full speed, we share in the prosperity of this worldly life!"
"We sing over wine, voicing the joy in our hearts!"
"Living passionately, seizing the prime of our youth!"
Ride!
Thinking this, Lin Tian couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
He quickly shook his head, bringing himself back to reality.
He knew he could not possibly take the esteemed horse away. Such a treasure, in the hands of his enemies, was something Lin Tian absolutely could not allow.
Lin Tian devised a plan in his heart. He was determined to kill both Young Master Chu and Young Master Wang, and moreover, to kill the esteemed horse as well.
And Lin Tian wanted them to kill the esteemed horse with their own hands. Just thinking about the grimaces Young Master Chu and Young Master Wang would make while killing the esteemed horse excited him.
If his enemies were unhappy, he was very happy.
