He Ate a Divine Dragon-Chapter 477 - 475

By the time they reached Jinhai City, it was already noon. Accompanying Lin Xiao were Bei Kuang and Xiao Shixiong.

After they arrived, Xiao Shixiong said respectfully, "Master, the meal has been prepared. Shall we eat first or go to the Wang Family right away?"

"Let's eat first," Lin Xiao said in a deep voice.

"As you wish."

Led by Xiao Shixiong, they headed straight for a private club where Tie Shankao was already waiting at the entrance. The grand club was usually bustling with people, but today, it was eerily silent. The reason was simple: the club belonged to Xiao Shixiong. Since Lin Xiao was making a rare appearance, Xiao Shixiong had naturally closed it to all other patrons to focus entirely on providing the best possible hospitality.

The club was spacious and built with the utmost luxury. Guided by a server, the group of four made their way to the dining room.

Once they were seated, Tie Shankao waved his hand grandly, instructing the manager to begin serving the food.

"By the way, Master," Xiao Shixiong said, "I followed your instructions from last night. Aside from that moron from the Han Family, we let everyone else go. What's more, their families all paid the ransom immediately after getting the calls!"

As he spoke, Xiao Shixiong took a check from his pocket. Lin Xiao glanced at it. It clearly read one billion.

Lin Xiao cursed with a smile, "Damn it. Including that guy from the Han family, there were only six or seven people yesterday. I told you ten million each, which would have been less than a hundred million total. What is the meaning of this? How am I supposed to explain a billion to my wife?"

Xiao Shixiong offered a fawning smile. "Master, I just thought I'd round it up to a nice, even number!"

"Round it up, my ass," Lin Xiao said. "Just write me a new check for fifty million."

That settled the matter. Xiao Shixiong couldn't say another word and quickly wrote out a new check for fifty million. Lin Xiao accepted it without ceremony and tucked it away. He had told Su Qingning that the other party would be paying compensation, so he naturally intended to give the money to her. How she decided to handle it was her business.

"Master, that piece of trash from the Han Family is still in the car. How should we deal with him?"

"We'll go to the Wang Family first. After we're done with them, we'll head straight for the Han Family!"

"As you command!"

The food and drinks arrived quickly. Lin Xiao didn't touch his chopsticks, so no one else moved.

"Go on, eat."

Only after Lin Xiao gave the order did everyone begin to eat and drink. Since they had business to attend to in the afternoon, no one drank alcohol. It wouldn't have mattered if they did, but since Lin Xiao abstained, the others followed suit.

During the meal, Lin Xiao got a call from Su Qingning. He stood up and left the private room to answer it. The moment the call connected, Su Qingning's gentle voice came through.

"Honey, have you eaten yet?"

Lin Xiao smiled. "I'm eating right now. Have you all eaten?"

"We just finished!" Su Qingning laughed.

"That's good."

"So, how are things going over there?"

"I haven't dealt with anything yet. Eating first, handling business later. It's all small stuff, so don't you worry about it," Lin Xiao said with a chuckle.

"Even if it's small stuff, you need to be careful. Jinhai City isn't Jinling City!"

"I know," Lin Xiao said softly.

"Alright, well, I'll hang up then!"

"Wait! Give me a kiss first, then you can hang up. How about it?"

"You're impossible! No way!" Su Qingning chided playfully.

Her teasing words made Lin Xiao's heart skip a beat.

"Then I'll kiss you!"

With that, Lin Xiao made a loud smooching sound into the phone. On the other end, Su Qingning's pretty face instantly flushed crimson. She didn't understand what was happening to her; they were hundreds of kilometers apart, yet her cheeks still burned.

After his kiss, Lin Xiao was about to end the call when he suddenly heard a soft smack from the other end.

A jolt went through him, his hair standing on end and his heart racing wildly. She actually blew me a kiss.

Lin Xiao wanted to go home, right now.

"Darling, I love you!"

"Me too!" Su Qingning replied with a laugh.

"Okay, I'm hanging up now!"

"Mm!"

Just as Lin Xiao was about to hang up, Su Qingning seemed to remember something. "Oh, right, honey, one more thing!"

"What is it?"

"A man named Shang Tuo knocked on our door today. He said he was a friend of Mei'er's and is a security guard at the bar now. He wanted to come in for a visit, but Jing Zhe turned him away."

Lin Xiao's brow furrowed slightly. "Mm, he is Mei'er's friend and a guard at the bar. It's fine. If he was turned away, just let it be. Don't worry about him."

"I know, I just wanted to let you know."

Lin Xiao smiled. "Be good and wait for me at home. I'll be back as soon as I'm finished here."

Su Qingning obediently agreed, and they ended the call.

The meal was soon over. When they stepped out of the clubhouse, a dense crowd of men stood at the grand entrance, all dressed in matching black suits. The scene was quite intimidating.

Surrounded by the men, Lin Xiao got into the lead car. The grand procession then headed toward the Wang Family estate.

The Wang Family was wealthy and influential, their residence the very picture of opulence. More than a dozen cars pulled up in a neat line outside their villa.

Lin Xiao glanced at the entrance. It was completely empty. Not a single person was in sight.

Seeing this, his eyes turned instantly cold. When he let Wang Jingxiu go last night, he had made it clear: if the Wang Family didn't want to suffer, they would all be kneeling at the villa's entrance to welcome his arrival. He thought that after seeing the Martial Alliance token, Wang Jingxiu would have told Wang Shicheng, and they wouldn't dare to court death. He had expected them to be kneeling obediently at the gate. But who would have thought they would treat his words as if they were nothing but hot air? Good. Very good.

"Go knock," Lin Xiao ordered Bei Kuang.

Bei Kuang let out a wide grin. This was exactly the kind of job he loved.

He got out of the car and strode toward the villa's entrance. But the old man had no intention of knocking. He was going to kick the door down.

He lifted his leg and, with a casual air, kicked the solid copper door.

BANG!!!

A deafening crash echoed over the Wang Family's villa. Accompanied by the massive sound, the sturdy gate was instantly blasted to pieces, sending debris flying everywhere.

Lin Xiao watched with envy. He was starting to miss the ninety percent of his cultivation base stored in Su Qingning's Dantian. He had no idea when that power would finally return to him.

The thunderous noise immediately alerted everyone inside the Wang Family's home. The sound of frantic footsteps instantly reached Lin Xiao's ears.

He rolled down his car window. With a slight smile, he said to Bei Kuang, "Give them a show of force first. Ask them if they admit they were wrong. If they refuse to, then just start beating them. Don't hold back, but make sure you don't kill them!"

Bei Kuang nodded, his smile turning ferocious. "Dragon Lord, rest assured. If anyone dares not admit their mistake today, I'll beat them until they do!"
