Rely on him?
Was this still relying on him? This was a joke from start to finish, a clown performing in front of the entire nation.
It was laughable that such a person who did not even have the qualifications to challenge him, these noble family leaders and big shots from all walks of life still worshipped him like a god. They actually knelt and kowtowed in this twenty-first century, in this era that had abolished old customs, worshipping a clown. In front of the entire nation, they kowtowed to worship a clown. They were more laughable than Qing Mang. Qing Mang was merely arrogant and overestimated himself. But what about them?
They were stupid to the extreme.
“Miss Tang?” Luo Chen sneered.
“Ah?” Tang Jing woke from her shock.
“One is in heaven, one is on earth. Now who is in heaven?”
“Who is on earth?” Tang Jing’s face immediately flushed red with shame, burning hot, even her earlobes and chest turned red.
She could not answer this question.
And she was also hit by a tide of regret.
This was bad, she was finished this time.
You must know, previously the Director of the Security Bureau had personally spoken to her. How could the Director of the Security Bureau not know about the grudge between Luo Chen and the Security Bureau?
So he sent her to reconcile with Luo Chen.
This was a mission. Tang Jing had become one of the deputy directors at such a young age precisely because of her exceptional methods and repeated meritorious achievements. But this time, not only did she fail to complete the mission, she had also offended Luo Chen completely.
One could imagine, after returning to the Security Bureau, how the Director would hold her accountable. Tang Jing let out a bitter laugh. She looked at Luo Chen, then looked at Qing Mang lying on the ground. She regretted to the extreme.
Why back then, whether in Goryeo or after returning to the country, had she not stood on Luo Chen’s side.
But there were far more people at the scene who regretted more than her.
Li Tianyou, Lan Feihu, Old Hong the head of the Hong family, and the other heads of the five noble families were dumbstruck at this moment.
“Didn’t your five great families plan to openly swallow up my Luo Wuji’s assets?”
“Didn’t you openly plan to go against me, Luo Wuji?”
“Didn’t you, Li Tianyou, plan to forcibly seize this Imperial Hall today?” Luo Chen spoke softly, but every sentence was enough to make these people’s bodies start trembling.
“What are you still standing there for?”
“Come.” Luo Chen snorted coldly.
Come? Dare they?
The person before them was the number one person in China. He had never been shaken.
Throughout the entire country, who dared to match him? Just with them, even if given a thousand years they could not shake him in the slightest.
“Lu Jianguo?”
“Yu Xinghe.” Luo Chen spoke leisurely, shifting his gaze to these two people.
If the most regretful people present were anyone, then it was none other than these two. Because originally they had been on Luo Chen’s side. To a certain extent, they could already be considered Luo Chen’s people.
But they had actually betrayed Luo Chen for a clown, for a joke.
“I saved you, Yu Xinghe.” The moment Luo Chen said this, Yu Xinghe was so frightened he directly knelt on the ground.
“Mr Luo, please listen to my explanation, the matter is actually…”
“No need, there is nothing to explain.” Luo Chen interrupted Yu Xinghe’s words.
“And Lu Jianguo, I saved your entire family.” Lu Jianguo’s face was deathly pale, his whole body shuddered, and he directly knelt on the ground.
“Is this how you repay your debt of gratitude?”
“Mr Luo, Jianguo knows his mistake, please, please give Jianguo another chance…”
“Really, even being an ox or a horse would do, Jianguo only begs for this chance.”
“Mr Luo, I, Yu Xinghe, was blinded by lard. I also beg you to give me another chance.”
“Chance?” Luo Chen snorted coldly again.
“You go ask this number one person in China for a chance.” Luo Chen coldly pointed to Qing Mang on the ground.
But this time, Qing Mang seemed to be humiliated. His head, which had been hanging low, directly raised up. He glared at Luo Chen and spoke.
“Luo Wuji, a gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. Although I, Qing Mang, have lost, I still have dignity.”
“Dignity?”
“You, Qing Mang, mention dignity to me, are you kidding me?” Luo Chen now truly looked at Qing Mang with a smile.
“Hmph, my Qingcheng Mountain lineage is at least a righteous and prestigious sect. Naturally we cannot be humiliated.” Qing Mang spoke with great righteousness, as if even if he lost, he would lose with backbone.
“Fine, dignity?” Luo Chen shook his head.
“Nanchan, tell him what dignity is.” The moment Luo Chen said this, everyone was stunned.
Who was Luo Chen talking to?
But the next moment, everyone once again saw circles of colourful Buddhist light spreading one after another in the sky.
Colourful auspicious clouds came from the distance, and then a figure like a living Buddha slowly came from the sky. With every step a lotus bloomed, every step had a pure white lotus blossom open. This scene made everyone terrified.
Even the entire sky above Dragon Capital was covered by these colourful auspicious clouds. People who came nearby to watch the excitement directly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
This was a living Buddha descending to earth. This time it should not be wrong, right?
After all, just now Qing Mang had dark clouds filling the sky. Compared to the colourful auspicious clouds filling the sky, it was truly unworthy of the stage.
And Qing Mang’s expression suddenly changed. Asian international giant Zen Master Nanchan?
Why had he come too?
But this seemingly sacred and peaceful Zen Master Nanchan walked up to Luo Chen, then directly knelt down to Luo Chen.
“Nanchan greets Master.”
What? Greet Master?
Qing Mang suddenly shuddered.
That Luo Chen could defeat an international giant was already shocking enough for Qing Mang. Now the international giant Zen Master Nanchan actually called Luo Chen Master?
But the next scene made Qing Mang look even worse.
They saw Zen Master Nanchan point through the air. Immediately a huge image appeared in the sky, like an extremely huge projection.
“Senior spare my life, senior spare my life.” Qing Mang was begging Zen Master Nanchan for mercy.
“I can spare you, kneel.” Zen Master Nanchan stood with hands behind his back above Infinite City.
Then Qing Mang knelt. To save his life, Qing Mang knelt down.
Everyone looked at the scene in the sky in disbelief. Even people in the distance used their phones to record it.
This scene was precisely when Qing Mang encountered Zen Master Nanchan in Infinite City and was beaten, then Qing Mang begged for mercy to save his life. Only now it was being replayed.
“Dignity?”
“Do you know who this person you feared, who you begged for mercy from, is?” Luo Chen pointed at Zen Master Nanchan.
“Just a dog of mine.”
These words not only stunned Qing Mang, but also stunned everyone present.
But looking at that image, it did not seem fake. Moreover, at this moment Luo Chen would not be bored enough to create a fake image to deceive them. Look again at Zen Master Nanchan kneeling before Luo Chen, his expression extremely respectful. Everyone was already too shocked to speak.
“I know you are still somewhat unconvinced when I say you are not worthy to challenge me.”
“But you are not even as good as a dog of mine, and you challenge me?”
“Is it laughable?”
“And you lot, the person you worship like a god is not even as good as a dog of mine. You actually planned to rely on him to provoke me?”
