The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 396: 393: Han Tianying_1

She hated Shao Ming for losing, she hated Shao Ming for not being able to defeat Yang Chen, and she also hated Yang Chen. She felt that everyone who did not comply with her wishes in this world was wrong.

To give her Spirit Stones to Yang Chen was to admit defeat and acknowledge that she, Han Lingling, had lost. This was absolutely impossible!

Yang Chen, on the other hand, seemed completely indifferent as he looked at Han Lingling. He didn’t seem surprised by her words and deliberately raised his voice: “What’s the matter, Han Lingling? When you wanted to bet with me, you were going to take both my arms. I, Yang Chen, dared to bet my arms and my dignity with you. Now that it’s just a mere five million Spirit Stones, you want to renege? Haha, is this the extent of the abilities of you people from Beishan Main City?”

As his voice fell, he deliberately let the surrounding people hear it. The sound spread, and the onlookers couldn’t help but start discussing it.

Everyone loves to watch a commotion.

As the saying goes, people enjoy watching a big scene without trouble, and that’s exactly the case here.

They didn’t think it was a big deal.

“It seems that Yang Chen and this Han Lingling did have a bet.”

“That’s pretty normal, right? If there was no stake, why would they bother fighting so hard? Shao Ming was obviously standing up for Han Lingling.”

“Yeah, Yang Chen won now, but it seems like Han Lingling is breaking her promise and doesn’t plan to give it away.”

“I heard that Han Lingling is the daughter of one of the Three Great Protectors of Beishan Main City, but she seems to have such a small amount of tolerance. Losing is losing; can’t she bear to give it away 5 million Spirit Stones?”

The crowd continued to discuss, and some people, who had been often bullied by Han Lingling, joined the gossip as they discovered that the true target of Yang Chen’s bet was actually Han Lingling. They all started spreading rumors.

Many of them had suffered from Han Lingling’s persecution.

Han Lingling was arrogant and overbearing in her daily life, bullying others too much. The various sects and branches in Beishan Main City, as well as other forces, had some people who had definitely experienced Han Lingling’s oppression. But what could they do? Han Lingling had power and influence, and they couldn’t compete with her.

They had to swallow their anger when they were bullied and take their humiliation silently.

They couldn’t afford to provoke Han Lingling, but now they had the chance to talk behind her back, and no one would miss the opportunity.

Some things accumulated over time.

When one person spoke up, others followed suit.

In an instant, half of the thousands of onlookers were accusing Han Lingling, with some even joining the accusation without knowing the whole situation, just for the thrill of it.

Han Lingling was like a rat on the street, with everyone shouting and beating at her.

This made Han Lingling so angry that smoke seemed to come out of her nostrils. Where had she ever suffered such grievances since she was a child?

Whether it was one person accusing her or a group of people, no one had dared to scold her in person since she was little, except her father.

If it had been any other time, she could have easily made whoever dared to curse her like this disappear without a place to be buried. But now, with so many people cursing her, she suddenly felt her scalp go numb. How was she supposed to kill all these people?

Just when she was about to get furious, the middle-aged man sitting next to her, who had been silent all along, slowly got up from his chair.

The moment he stood up, his aura suddenly burst out.

However, he didn’t exert any oppressive force on the onlookers, but spoke calmly: “Everyone, please calm down. I am Han Tianying, one of the Three Great Protectors of Beishan Main City!”

These words, calm and peaceful, did not give people any explosive pressure.

However, the weight of these words was considerable.

No one might recognize Han Tianying.

But the meaning of the Three Great Protectors was well known to all.

The reason Beishan Main City could hold its position as the leader of North Mountain County for a long time was precisely because of the Three Great Protectors.

Now that Han Tianying spoke as one of the Three Great Protectors, no one dared to disrespect him. In just a few breaths’ time, the whole scene became extremely quiet, and it seemed that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard clearly.

Han Tianying’s expression was calm, and when he appeared, he showed enough aura. At this moment, he calmly glanced at Yang Chen and then raised his head, slowly saying: “Lingling, give the Spirit Stones to our young friend Yang Chen!”

Han Lingling’s face changed abruptly when she heard this: “Father, how can you side with an outsider? I can never give him the Spirit Stones.”

“What? You won’t even listen to me?” Han Tianying said coldly, his voice authoritative, leaving no room for resistance.

Han Lingling trembled involuntarily at the sound and then gritted her teeth, her heart full of grievances and resentment, understanding that everything she had today was given to her by her father. Without her father’s support, she would have nothing.

She thought for a long time before finally taking out the Storage Bag containing the Spirit Stones.

Then, she held the Storage Bag and threw it directly at Yang Chen, showing her obvious dissatisfaction with this matter.

Yang Chen didn’t bother to care whether Han Lingling was satisfied or not, as long as he got the Spirit Stones. He received the Storage Bag and checked the amount inside, finding it to be exactly five million, which left him quite satisfied.

At the same time, he also took a look at Han Tianying, noting that this man was quite different from Han Lingling and was quite an unusual character.

From Han Lingling’s point of view, it wouldn’t matter much if she didn’t give him the Spirit Stones, but she had no idea that her status represented Beishan Main City, and the repercussions to other people wouldn’t be significant. Her reluctance to give up and lose today meant that Beishan Main City’s reputation would be gone tomorrow.

Han Tianying made a wise choice.

But to Yang Chen’s surprise, Han Tianying didn’t seem to intend to let the matter rest.

This reconciliation wasn’t about him, but about Han Lingling.

At this moment, Han Tianying stood with his hands behind his back and said solemnly, “And apologize to our young friend Yang Chen!”

Upon hearing this, Han Lingling’s eyes widened in disbelief, almost not believing that what she had heard was true. Her father had spoiled her since she was a child, and now he was asking her to apologize to someone, to bow to someone, especially…her enemy!

Han Lingling gritted her teeth and said, “Father, you must be joking with me, right?”

“Apologize,” Han Tianying said resolutely, without any hesitation.

Han Lingling immediately shouted, “Absolutely not! I will never apologize to him! What is my status as Han Lingling? How can I apologize to him? There’s no way!”
