Chapter 123: The Power Behind It
The entire Fantasy Valley was surrounded by so many clans and families.
On one hand, they were worried that Ernest Lin and Lin Ming would escape. On the other hand, they all wanted to drink some soup, therefore coming to this place.
They knew that the current Ernest Lin wasn’t a threat.
And Ernest Lin’s family was even easier to control.
The only variable now was Lin Ming!
“Hmph, br*t, stop playing tricks on us!”
A fierce voice appeared.
“I’m really respectful to everyone. There’s no such thing as playing tricks.”
Lin Ming quickly waved his hand and said.
“Finally! I’ve waited for everyone for a long time. How can I not invite all of you to sit down?”
Lin Ming spoke and once again made an inviting gesture.
“Since young friend Lin Ming has invited us in for a cup of tea, we should at least give him some face.”
Bauhinia snorted coldly and was the first to enter the Fantasy Valley.
As he entered, the people outside also followed.
“Lin Ming, you can still get out of this matter now. If you leave now, no one will stop you.”
After the middle-aged man entered the Fantasy Valley, he spoke directly.
“I’m already here, how can I leave now? Isn’t this disrespecting all of you?”
Lin Ming smiled. How could he leave now?
As long as Ernest Lin was here, he, Lin Ming, would not budge an inch.
“Lin Ming, don’t think that we don’t know anything about you. You don’t have a family, and your empire is also at the bottom of the forces!”
“You came to our empire and interfered in our empire’s affairs. If we destroy you here, your empire will have nothing to say!”
Bauhinia said coldly.
His current words were also testing Lin Ming.
“That’s right. Besides, you are only a Tier 7 Mage. There are plenty of them in our empire!”
Another voice echoed.
“If that’s the case, why are you so polite? Why don’t you just attack me directly?”
Lin Ming smiled and replied.
“I’m a Tier 7 Mage, and you’re a Tier 9 Mage. Now, do you dare to compete with me?”
Lin Ming turned his head and looked coldly at the person who had just echoed.
Lin Ming’s aura as a Tier 7 Mage actually suppressed the Tier 9 Mage, and he did not dare to speak again!
As Lin Ming’s aura erupting, everyone present understood how difficult it was to provoke Lin Ming!
What they were afraid of now was not only Lin Ming, but also the power behind Lin Ming!
Up until now, many clans and families had yet to find out the power behind Lin Ming!
As for a monster like Lin Ming, they would not believe if it was said that he had grown up to look like this.
Now that they could not investigate the power behind Lin Ming, they did not dare to act rashly.
“Everyone, don’t be so nervous. Lin Ming has already said that he’s treating us to tea. After drinking the tea, we should give Lin Ming some money for the tea, right?”
The patriarch from the Saint Cross clan spoke at this moment and broke the deadlock.
“There’s no need. I don’t care about the money you give me for tea. Furthermore, I can tell you very clearly that I’ll always be here and won’t leave.”
Lin Ming snorted coldly. Were they trying to give him benefits to make him leave?
He really didn’t care about the things these people wanting to give him.
One had to know that Lin Ming still had the highest-tier spiritual tool.
“You shameless thing! Today, we will raze your Fantasy Valley to the ground!”
As Lin Ming spoke, they knew that a peaceful negotiation was impossible.
They might as well flip the table!
“Wait!”
At this moment, Lin Ming’s voice rang out.
This Fantasy Valley was Ernest Lin’s current residence. Naturally, Lin Ming would not watch them destroy this place.
“Just now you said you weren’t going to leave, and now you’re not going to fight. What do you want?!”
Bauhinia spoke.
Although they said this, they all stopped.
Even now, they were still afraid of Lin Ming.
“Since so many clans and families came, pick one member from the number of clans and families to fight with me, and as long as I lose, I will leave this empire. What do you think?”
Lin Ming spoke.
“You really think of yourself as someone important! We have so many clans and families here. Why should we listen to your commands? We can destroy you now!”
Finally, someone became impatient.
“You guys didn’t attack me and I know the reason why. You’re afraid of the power behind me, right?”
Lin Ming sneered.
These people would not attack him even if they were to attack the Fantasy Valley. He knew the reason why.
“Otherwise, you would have attacked me a long time ago.”
“The condition I’m proposing now is very fair. Or rather, it’s a sure-win situation for you guys. This is our way out!”
After Lin Ming spoke, everyone quieted down once again.
“There are so many clans and families here. Anyone of you can fight with me. Also, in between, give me no time to rest.”
“As long as I lose, I will leave. I will do as I say.”
Lin Ming spoke.
“Why should we listen to you?!”
This questioning voice still existed.
“Don’t you all want to know the power behind me? I can tell you very clearly that as long as I want to, uprooting all of your clans and families at the same time is extremely simple.”
Lin Ming said indifferently, but this sentence caused a huge uproar!
This young man actually dared to be so arrogant!
However, he actually killed a Tier 9 Mage in Ernest Lin’s family. In addition, Lin Ming’s power could not be investigated, so they had to consider.
“You don’t believe me?”
Lin Ming sneered.
“This is only one of them.”
Lin Ming took out the token Gandulf had given him and threw it to the patriarch of the Saint Cross clan.
The patriarch of the Saint Cross clan already knew what it was from afar!
He quickly held it in his hands.
After all, his family had an elder who was also Sage Tier Mage in charge, so he naturally knew more things.
“Senior Gandulf’s token! Didn’t they say that… he doesn’t have any disciples and has always been alone? Why is the only token with you?!”
The patriarch of the Saint Cross clan was stunned for a moment, and his voice trembled as he spoke.
Now he finally understood why Lin Ming had such confidence.
And Lin Ming had just said that this was only one of them!
As far as he knew, as a Sage Tier Mage, Gandulf did not have any clans, nor did he have any disciples.
And the token was in Lin Ming’s hands. This meant too many things!
He was even starting to back out now.
“What I just said, are you willing to cooperate? This is a way out for both of us.”
Lin Ming said coldly.
“What’s the situation!”
Bauhinia strode forward and took the token. Then, his hands began to tremble.
“How about we…”
The middle-aged man was silent for a moment before he spoke.
