A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 476 Invited a Water Dragon
At Blue Ripple Lake.
All was silent.
Everyone watched on as the old man in a tangzhuang swiftly walked across the surface of the lake. Their eyes were wide open in shock as if they had seen a ghost.
After a long time, the sound of gasping filled the place.
"This...this..."
"He's walking on water, that's incredible..."
"He's actually a water dragon, isn't he?"
There were many people who had witnessed this scene within the Lin estate and they were all mind blown.
Their faces were in shock as they continued to exclaim.
Even Zhao Si and Lin Feng couldn't close their mouths because they were still in shock.
But the shock in their hearts soon became excitement and pure joy.
"HOHOHO! Si, we've spent $300 million in exchange for a water dragon. It's worth it, it's definitely worth it! HOHO!"
Lin Feng and Zhao Si smiled at one another. Their joyous laughter and the sound of the water splashing filled the entire estate. After a few moments, the old man had covered a few dozen meters of water. He made a leap and landed neatly in the pavilion.
Lin Feng and Zhao Si saw that an energetic and vigorous old man had appeared before them.
His eyes were authoritative and his expression was alert.
But because he walked on the water surface earlier, his clothes were a little wet. Droplets of water continued to roll down his robe and drip onto the floor.
Lin Feng immediately called out to his men, "Hurry and get a change of clothes for Master Yao. The weather is getting cold, I don't want him to catch a cold."
But after Lin Feng said this, Yao Bai-Sheng waved his hands about. "That's not necessary. This little bit of cold is nothing to me. Those who practice martial arts will have no problems even lying in snow with nothing on. How could this slight chill affect me at all?"
Zhao Si and Lin Feng were even more full of admiration for this old man.
Regardless of whether he was talking about walking on water or lying naked in snow, this wasn't something either of them was capable of.
They were worried earlier about whether Yao Bai-Sheng was worth $300 million, but now it seemed like it turned out to be a good deal!
"Hahaha! Walking on water and lying without anything in the snow! Master Yao, these are truly impressive words! With a water dragon like you representing Longyang Martial Arts Academy, we don't have to fear anybody at the match! Men, set the table and bring the wine! We're going to give Master Yao a good welcome feast!"
Lin Feng did not delay any further. He laughed brightly and got his servants to quickly bring in good food and wine to welcome Yao Bai-Sheng.
"Mr Lin, there's no need for these formalities. Do you have what I've asked for?" Yao Bai-Sheng was a direct man as well. They hadn't exchanged many words and he was already asking Lin Feng for payment. "Master Yao, you don't have to worry about the money. I'll transfer $300 million to you by tonight. But I want to know how confident you are about this match."
"After all, the various powers of Yanjing will be participating in this match, including some martial artists who are world famous. For example, taijiquan master Xing He, bagua master Gao TianYuan, roach-fist master Cheng Kai-Hong and more. These people are all very reputable in the Chinese martial arts scene and we shouldn't underestimate our opponents..." said Lin Feng with some worry as he kindly reminded Yao Bai-Sheng.
But Yao Bai-Sheng just snorted. "And since when were these clowns pretending to be something considered martial artists and considered masters?"
"What? Master Yao, what do you mean by that?" asked Zhao Si and Lin Feng in confusion as they were both stunned.
Yao Bai-Sheng didn't say anything. He sat on the stone stool and drank down a cup of tea before arrogantly replying, "What I mean is very simple."
"What I'm saying is that all those you have mentioned are not even worth mentioning to me! It's no exaggeration to say that these people are like porcelain vases to me and I can smash them to powder with just one punch. If the opponents at this match are these people, then Mr Lin, you can prepare for a complete victory."
Yao Bai-Sheng said these words extremely confidently and domineeringly.
Lin Feng and Zhao Si immediately started laughing heartily.
"With these words from you, Si and I are very relieved," Lin Feng continued to laugh heartily.
"By the way, Master Yao, since you're a renowned martial artist, I'm sure you know some of the great martial artists in China as well. I'm not sure if you've ever heard of a martial artist by the surname Chu from Jiangdong?"
"Jiangdong? A Chu?" Yao Bai-Sheng frowned and shook his head. "Jiangdong is a place where martial arts has completely dried up. After producing one Wu He-Rong, they've never had another great martial artist rise up in the last ten years. And who is this trash whose surname is Chu? I've never heard of him.”
Lin Feng and Zhao Si exchanged glances.
They didn't say anything, but they were both relieved.
They had nearly been fooled by that Xue Ren-Yang.
That young man was just some unknown fellow and Xue Ren-Yang had the cheek to recommend him?
Did Xue Ren-Yang take them as idiots?
They had been fooled once, and they weren't getting fooled again.
Many days ago, the Xue, Zhao and Lin families had already started discussing about who to send to this match.
At that time, the Xues highly recommended a large fellow named Tong Shan to represent the academy.
Lin Feng and Zhao Si saw that Xue Ren-Yang was pushing so hard for him and Tong Shan looked both tall and strong, so they agreed to it.
But who would have known? That Tong
Shan turned out to be useless.
Before the match even started, he had run into some thief and got stabbed half to death, and then he even escaped from Yanjing because he was too scared.
And because of this matter, Lin Feng and Zhao Si were already unhappy with the Xues. Now that Xue Ren-Yang wanted to recommend an unknown young punk, there was no way Lin Feng and Zhao Si would be agreeable.
After seeing what Master Yao was capable of, Lin Feng and Zhao Si were even more certain that they had made the right decision in chasing Ye Fan away earlier.
"That stupid old Xue Ren-Yang actually cut ties with us over a young punk? He's going to regret this when the match comes around."
Zhao Si and Lin Feng were feeling very smug now.
They didn't spend too much time with Yao Bai-Sheng and went back to get their funds together.
$300 million was a lot of money to ordinary people.
But even though the Lin and Zhao families were up and coming in Yanjing, it still took them some time to get their funds together.
Initially, they had decided that each family would contribute $100 million.
But because Xue Ren-Yang had backed out, they had no choice but to fork out an additional $50 million each.
"Master, the most we can gather in such a short time is $100 million. If you need anymore, we'll have to sell off some of our shares and assets, but even so, we'll still have to wait one or two days for the money to reach us," said the butler to Lin Feng with a worried look on his face.
