Chapter 1359: Chapter 1339: Utter Humiliation!
Zhou Shiguan let out a heavy breath, feeling relieved now that this issue was resolved; the dissatisfaction in his heart diminished quite a bit.
But still, he was extremely unhappy!
Who wouldn’t feel annoyed being "bullied" continuously in just two days?
First, he witnessed Ye Huan’s impressive background; the Cyan Dragon Corporation and its subsidiary industries completely crumbled, with asset losses reaching a staggering 950 billion. Countless other funds were frozen.
The funding sources of the Cyan Dragon Association were mostly wiped out by just one phone call from Ye Huan!
Then, in the middle of the night, while expecting a stunning beauty to show up, Ye Huan arranged for ten old sows instead, and he was even humiliated by them!
Zhou Shiguan suffered immense psychological damage, and to this day, remnants of this trauma lingered in his mind!
Then, just now, when he tried to avenge Ye Huan, he ended up fleeing in disgrace after Ye Huan showcased his Divine Level abilities!
Zhou Shiguan was utterly frustrated, with tears glistening in his eyes. Bitterly, he lit a cigar with a snap, unable to comprehend how Ye Huan could be this insanely powerful!
"Boss, what on earth happened? It’s too unbelievable. How could Ye Huan defeat Huang Lin?!"
"Wasn’t Huang Lin said to be a top-tier genius even in the deep mountains of southwest Huaxia? Didn’t he enjoy top-level Ancient Martial Arts resources far superior to Ye Huan’s?"
"Why, when Ye Huan was at such a disadvantage, could he completely overpower Huang Lin?"
"It’s practically defying the heavens, I just can’t imagine it!"
The cars full of Cyan Dragon Association thugs erupted with incredulous questions!
Even though an hour had passed since the battle, their hearts were still shaken, deeply shocked by the outcome!
Their words were filled with astonishment throughout!
"I don’t know either; that kid Ye Huan is too damn strange!" Zhou Shiguan lamented sorrowfully. "Every time it seems he’s on the brink of a crisis, about to die, he manages to turn things around at the last moment and slap everyone who looks down on him in the face!"
"Boss, could it be that Huang Lin tricked you and isn’t actually a genius but just a regular Ancient Martial Artist from the deep mountains?" someone skeptically suggested.
Many nodded in agreement, as they couldn’t fathom otherwise how Ye Huan could defeat a top-notch genius from the Ancient Martial Arts deep mountains!
It’s simply beyond reason!
Zhou Shiguan waved his hand and firmly denied, "That’s impossible. Had Huang Lin been the only one from the deep mountains to contact me, I might doubt his identity. But don’t forget, besides Huang Lin, I have many other ’friends’ from the deep mountains."
"They personally told me that Huang Lin advanced to an Initial-Tier Divine King in his thirties, considered above second-tier and almost reaching first-tier genius level in the southwest deep mountains, enjoying top-tier Ancient Martial Arts resources of the Huang Family, which are beyond doubt."
"The only explanation is that Ye Huan’s monstrous talents far exceed our imagination, reaching a level beyond our understanding!"
Zhou Shiguan blew out a puff of smoke, crossing his legs. "Our Cyan Dragon Association has been low-key for many years, and just as we were about to make a flashy reappearance, we antagonized this kind of supernatural monster. I can only say, our luck is just terribly unfortunate!"
"Ugh—"
The Cyan Dragon Association thugs fell into silence, forced to admit their bad luck and feeling utterly awkward.
Previously, they claimed that Ye Huan wouldn’t last three minutes against Huang Lin.
And now?
It wasn’t Ye Huan who failed to last three minutes; it was Huang Lin!
Huang Lin was utterly defeated!
The extraordinary power Ye Huan displayed slapped them all squarely in the face!
What defines a monster?
This is what defines a monster!
The genius from the Endless Deep Mountains, in his hands, was left only to be humiliated!
The Cyan Dragon Association’s thugs were left feeling extremely shocked and embarrassed, harboring a deep sense of envy, jealousy, and hatred toward Ye Huan!
Why was he blessed with such skill, reaching the pinnacle of the world at a young age and possessing terrifyingly supreme Ancient Martial Arts abilities, while they were stuck as mere thugs in the Cyan Dragon Association?
They’re all young; why is there such a disparity?
"Boss, what do we do next?" A thug, frustrated and with a sinister expression, asked, "Ye Huan destroyed our businesses, humiliated you with those sows—this can’t just end like this!"
"What else can we do!"
"Send you guys to beat up Ye Huan?"
Zhou Shiguan glared around, noticing everyone lowering their heads in fear, and cursed them as a useless bunch shamefully. "If you don’t have the guts to stand up for me, then shut up with the clever talk!"
The thugs blushed in shame. They really didn’t have the guts. Trying to mess with Ye Huan would be like courting death.
However, someone tentatively suggested, "Don’t you know a lot of friends from the deep mountains whose Ancient Martial Arts skills and talents surpass Huang Lin’s? If you could get them involved, Ye Huan would surely meet his demise, and we could avenge ourselves!"
"I’d love to, but there’s no way. The Great Contest among the hundred clans in the southwest deep mountains is about to begin, and they don’t have the time!"
Zhou Shiguan replied irritably, "Alright, don’t worry your heads over this anymore. I’ll consult with ’The Master’ for advice on this issue!"
The term "The Master" from Zhou Shiguan’s mouth caused some people in the vehicle to change their expressions.
These were seasoned members of the Cyan Dragon Association who knew there was someone even more formidable than Zhou Shiguan behind the scenes.
Under normal circumstances, Zhou Shiguan wouldn’t contact him.
Unless he truly encountered a problem that the entire effort of the Cyan Dragon Association couldn’t solve!
Clearly, the current situation fit this condition perfectly!
Even if the entire Cyan Dragon Association moved, they couldn’t handle Ye Huan!
...
"Damn you, Zhou Shiguan, I’m irreconcilable with you!"
In the southwest of Huaxia, deep within a forest.
Huang Lin rushed towards the Endless Deep Mountains, his eyes full of anger and resentment towards Zhou Shiguan!
He never expected that Zhou Shiguan would secretly record his indulgent moments!
It was clear that from the moment they met, Zhou Shiguan planned to trap him!
And likely, it wasn’t just him; some other Ancient Martial Artists from antiquated families who indulged with Zhou Shiguan likely were secretly recorded too!
The more Huang Lin thought about it, the angrier he became. He pulled out his phone and dialed a number, "Jian Bi, did you know that Zhou Shiguan secretly records us indulging with women and uses it as his trump card to force us to do things for him?"
"I’ve known for quite some time." Jian Bi’s voice was unexpectedly calm, as though he really knew all along and didn’t care.
"Damn it, you knew? And yet you enticed me to come out of the mountains with you to indulge with Zhou Shiguan?!" Huang Lin was furious, cursing immediately, "You set me up, I’m going to kill you!"
Jian Bi’s voice remained indifferent, "Huang Lin, to gain something, you must pay the price. This is a principle even children understand. You can’t hope to continuously take from Zhou Shiguan’s offerings without giving anything back."
"Whatever Zhou Shiguan asks you to do won’t be too challenging. He doesn’t want to truly fall out with us; otherwise, he would suffer greatly too."
"If that’s the case, whatever he asks for is manageable, just do it. Improve the relationship, and next time, the women he arranges for us will be even more attractive, even more enticing."
The principle was clear, but Huang Lin just wanted to enjoy without any strings attached. He didn’t want to do things.
Especially after being humiliated by Zhou Shiguan, he didn’t want to help him!
But he had no choice. If he didn’t do it, they’d fall out. Huang Lin couldn’t afford the price of a fallout!
Huang Lin could only hang up the phone, filled with a sense of sorrow, returning to the southwest deep mountains!
He felt that this time leaving the mountains was a complete loss!
Originally hoping to release his inner loneliness, instead, he was humiliated by pigs and beaten to a pulp in front of hundreds of people by an outsider Ancient Martial Artist, losing all dignity!
The inner restlessness wasn’t released, and now his heart was filled with a fire of discontent!
It’s really frustrating!
Huang Lin wanted revenge, he wanted to take revenge on Ye Huan!
But reason told him that confronting Ye Huan now would just result in another beating!
At that moment, he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.
When he took it out, the caller was: Patriarch of the Huang Family, Huang Lin’s father—Huang Huifeng!
