Hearing Ye Luo’s words, Zhang Daqian only felt an urge to vomit blood. Damn, two billion US dollars, wasn’t that nearly a trillion yuan?
If that wasn’t a lot, then what was? Besides, this was what he had worked for over a decade to accumulate.
However, Zhang Daqian dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction on his face. Looking at Ye Luo with a troubled expression, he said,
"Young Master Ye, although I have that much in assets, I can only co up with a maximum of fifty billion US dollars in cash. The rest is tied up in real estate and so funds overseas that are difficult to retrieve."
"I don’t care. I must see two hundred billion US dollars within an hour, otherwise I don’t know what will beco of the two of you."
Ye Luo snorted coldly, causing Zhang Daqian’s complexion to turn pale as he was filled with urgency.
"I can give you a suggestion. If you don’t have that much money, Mr. Li surely does, right? Transfer all of your real estate to Mr. Li. That way, you’ll have the money to compensate ."
The words from Ye Luo made Zhang Daqian’s face look a bit unsightly, while Li Tiancheng’s eyes glead with light.
Eventually, Zhang Daqian, bearing the pain, had to transfer most of his properties and casinos to Li Tiancheng. He finally scraped together the two hundred billion US dollars to give to Ye Luo, and just like that, his power in Macau dwindled to nearly nothing.
Falling from grace and plunging into the Mortal Realm was indeed a bitter pill to swallow, but Zhang Daqian had no choice but to bear it in silence.
Seeing an additional two hundred billion US dollars in his bank account, a smile appeared on the corner of Ye Luo’s mouth.
"Not bad, you can get lost now!"
Ye Luo said indifferently to Zhang Daqian and Zhang Huai, who hastily left the place in a disheveled state.
"Thank you, Young Master Ye. This ti, I made a huge profit!" Li Tiancheng looked at Ye Luo with a grateful expression. Now, there was no one left in Macau who could stand against him.
"No need for thanks. You’re one of my people now."
Ye Luo shook his head, then turned his gaze to Duan Ningyu: "I’m preparing to leave Macau. You all should get ready too; all mbers of the Five Elents Sect are to relocate to Zhonghai. Staying here no longer makes sense."
"But if we do that, once the Seven Stars Pavilion discovers us, I’m afraid..." Duan Ningyu said with so worry.
"If you keep hiding in fear like this, you will never grow stronger. What is there to worry about? If we are discovered, we’ll just fight it out."
Ye Luo spoke with a forceful and domineering tone.
"Understood," Duan Ningyu nodded.
anwhile, Zhi Gang boarded a ship and departed Macau, his eyes flashing with cold anger.
"Don’t worry, Elders. I, Zhi Gang, will surely avenge you."
An hour later, Ye Luo also left Macau, heading for Zhonghai. On this trip, he was accompanied by Luo Ji. As for Huo Ji, he asked her to stay in Macau and later travel to Zhonghai with the mbers of the Five Elents Sect.
After a long absence, Ye Luo planned to return to Zhonghai to check on things, especially since Ling Qingya and the others had already returned there.
Following several hours of flight, Ye Luo and Luo Ji arrived at Zhonghai Airport.
The mont Ye Luo walked out of the airport, he spotted two familiar faces.
It was the Nie sisters, Nie Wenyu and Nie Wenling, who he hadn’t seen in a long ti. The sisters, holding their luggage, seed ready to leave.
"Where are you two beauties planning to go?"
Ye Luo approached the two won and suddenly spoke up. The sisters, who hadn’t noticed Ye Luo, were startled by the abrupt voice.
"Who is it, you..."
Nie Wenling was about to lash out with a burst of profanities, but before she could finish her verbal assault, she caught sight of Ye Luo.
The expression on her face froze, and the curses she was about to hurl were forcibly swallowed back.
"Ye Luo, it’s you!"
Nie Wenling recovered, her face lighting up with excitent at seeing Ye Luo.
"Wow, long ti no see!"
Nie Wenling hugged Ye Luo directly, making him feel a bit embarrassed. This girl was rather enthusiastic and unrestrained.
Nie Wenyu also caught sight of Ye Luo at this mont, her beautiful eyes flashing with a complicated and peculiar expression.
"Where are you guys planning to go?"
After Nie Wenling let go of Ye Luo, the latter looked at the two won and suddenly asked.
"We were just about to..."
Nie Wenling was about to reveal their plans when Nie Wenyu promptly interrupted her.
"We’re just thinking of going out for so fun," Nie Wenyu said sowhat shyly.
"Oh, then you guys go ahead, I wish you a fun ti," Ye Luo said with a smile.
"We’re not going anymore."
Nie Wenling said abruptly.
"Not going? Why?" Ye Luo looked puzzled.
"Well, it’s nothing, we just suddenly felt that it’s not that fun to go out. Since we haven’t seen each other for a while and you’re back, we should catch up properly, don’t you think, sister?"
Nie Wenling said with a smile, her gaze turning toward Nie Wenyu, who nodded in agreent.
"Alright then," Ye Luo didn’t quite understand the sisters’ thoughts and didn’t dwell on it.
"By the way, congratulations to you, you’ve now beco a great hero of Huaxia, having defeated those people from the Island Country and avenged us fiercely. Many people in our school now see you as an idol," Nie Wenling said to Ye Luo, her face full of smiles and her eyes showing a hint of admiration.
"What great hero, idol, these are all but empty titles. I just couldn’t stand those people," Ye Luo said, shaking his head with a laugh.
"Speaking of which, we haven’t seen each other for a long ti, let’s go have a al together," Nie Wenling suggested outright.
"Sure," Ye Luo nodded.
"Kid, it seems your luck with the ladies is quite strong. These two girls might also have a thing for you too, sisters both, not bad, not bad!"
The exceedingly lewd words of Ao Long once again echoed in Ye Luo’s mind, making him have the urge to block it out. This old lascivious dragon was even more shaless and lecherous than he was.
Wait, where was I being lecherous or shaless?
"By the way, who is this?"
At that mont, Nie Wenyu noticed the person standing behind Ye Luo with snow-white long hair, dressed in a unique outfit, with an outstanding and incredibly beautiful appearance, and an ethereal deanor like that of a deity, Luo Ji. Nie Wenyu’s expression involuntarily stiffened.
"Wow, what a beautiful woman!"
Nie Wenling exclaid in admiration upon seeing Luo Ji. Although she thought herself pretty, she felt a significant gap when compared to Luo Ji.
"Oh, this is a friend of mine, Luo Ji."
"Luo Ji, these two are also my friends, Nie Wenyu and Nie Wenling," Ye Luo introduced.
"Are all your friends such beautiful won?"
Nie Wenling looked at Ye Luo with eyes carrying a hint of grievance, causing Ye Luo to feel sowhat embarrassed. This girl couldn’t possibly have really fallen for him, could she?
