Chapter 685: Chapter 684: Group Kneeling_1

Yan Ling glanced at everyone present. Those who had previously disparaged and mocked her quickly lowered their heads in fear.

Some of them were so frightened that their legs were trembling.

In Sicily, there was an unwritten rule: you might survive if you crossed Mr. Barrett, but if you crossed the Underground Emperor, not only would you lose your life, but your entire family would be doomed.

Was it still possible for them to kneel and beg for mercy?

Louis was also a bit weak at the knees.

But if he backed down, his plan to establish a big name for himself in Sicily would be completely ruined!

What the hell should he do?

How could he have the best of both worlds?

Yan Ling’s gaze was fixed on Louis, capturing every struggling expression he had.

Louis happened to raise his head and met her cold eyes, which scared him so much that he fell on his knees on the spot.

Seeing the prime culprit kneel, those who had offended Yan Ling no longer dared to stand, and they all knelt down as well.

In a short time, a large number of people were kneeling on the ground, causing the scene to become eerily quiet!

Yan Ling was satisfied with this result and was about to greet the Underground Emperor on the other end of the phone.

Surprisingly, the Underground Emperor lost patience first.

"Whoever the fuck can’t look straight, if you don’t speak up, I will have you chopped up directly!"

Yan Ling:...

The crowd:...

Louis was the first to react, immediately standing up in rage.

"Mr. Barrett, you’ve seen it. This kid clearly doesn’t know your father. He must have used some means to get your father’s phone number. He must be dealt with immediately," he insisted.

When the crowd heard they had been deceived, they all stood up in anger, ready to fight with Yan Ling.

Barrett, with a gloomy face, watched this noisy scene without uttering a word.

Louis was somewhat anxious, "Kid, if you refuse to apologize, you will be seen as an enemy of both the Underground Emperor and Mr. Barrett, and you will become the enemy of the entire Underground Kingdom!"

Louis looked at Barrett expectantly, hoping he would help him save face.

But Barrett was unusually quiet.

It’s not that his temper had suddenly improved, but because the phone line was still open.

Two hours ago, he had enraged his father by openly coming out of the closet, almost sending his father to meet his maker.

If it wasn’t for that, he wouldn’t have invited Louis over in the middle of the night.

He kept quiet now, fearing that if his father heard his voice, he would become furious.

"Mr. Barrett, please say something. Are you going to let this nobody insult you and the entire Underground Kingdom?"

"Yeah, young Mr. Barrett, you are to succeed the position of the Underground Emperor. If you can’t even handle a nobody, how can our brothers submit to you in the future?"

"Yeah, kill him!"

The surrounding people who had lost face due to Yan Ling were all standing on Louis’s side, urging Barrett to retaliate.

Upon hearing the encouragement of those around him, Barrett forgot his status and ordered on the spot.

"Get them! Skin them alive, chop them into pieces, and feed their flesh to the dogs!"

Seeing a group of people rushing up to deal with Yan Ling, Louis was secretly delighted.

Great! That damn kid is certainly doomed now!

But faced with such a terrifying situation, Yan Ling remained undisturbed. She coolly spoke to the person on the other end of the phone: "It’s been three years, old man. You can’t even recognize my voice anymore?"

"Clank!" There was the sound of a metal object falling on the other end of the phone, sounding quite loud.

Then came the quivering and excited voice of the Underground Emperor, "Wesley? Is that you, Wesley? Thank God, thank Satan, I finally found you!"

"Long time no see, your temper has grown!" Yan Ling said casually.

The Underground Emperor immediately apologized awkwardly: "No, no, I didn’t mean to blow up at you. Barrett, you son of a bitch, are you trying to kill me? You couldn’t find someone I asked for, and now that you’ve found them, you almost offended them. It seems I’ve been too lenient on you. Apologize to Wesley right now! If you can’t appease him, don’t bother coming back!"

The roar from the Underground Emperor scared Barrett so much that his legs started shaking.

As the saying goes, every dog has its day. Barrett was arrogant, but he was even more afraid of his father.

"Wesley, don’t bother with this beast. If you want to scold him, beat him, or even kill him, it’s all fine," said the Underground Emperor.

Barrett was petrified on the spot.

These were the words of his own father?

What did he mean by not caring even if he killed him?

He was his own flesh and blood.

Was he not even valued as much as an outsider?

Looking at the alarmingly furious expression of Barrett, Yan Ling suddenly felt pity for him.

She also didn’t expect the Underground Emperor to be so indifferent towards his own son.

There was a saying that even a cruel animal would not eat its own offspring, but she was wondering how Barrett had angered his father to the point that his very life didn’t matter.

The name Wesley was permanently etched into Barrett’s memory.

He was not just the Divine Doctor his father had been asking him to find!

He was also the mastermind who killed his beloved!

Thinking of this, Barrett’s rage escalated to a new level.

His old grudge combined with this new hate, made him wish he could kill the man right then and there.

"So, you’re Wesley? Good, I’ve been looking for you all along! Today we will settle both old and new scores. Tell me, why did you destroy the orchid which I had been cultivating for years?"

Now, Barrett was on the verge of losing his sanity, completely forgetting that the call was still ongoing and also dismissing his father’s warning.

Yan Ling raised her brow.

So, Barrett’s murderous gaze was all for an orchid.

"I did that to save your father’s life. Or do you think that the life of the orchid holds more value than your father’s?"

Yan Ling said this deliberately for the Underground Emperor to hear.

But Barrett, failing to control his temper, retort angrily, "Don’t think that saving my father at that time gives you the right to be so arrogant! It was merely a coincidence that you saved my father then. He might see you as some Divine Doctor but in my eyes, you’re just a con artist."

A con artist?

Yan Ling narrowed her eyes, a cold intent gathering in them.

"What, not convinced? Father, I’ve already hired a more skilled Divine Doctor to treat you, rest assured..."

The phone was on speaker, Barrett hadn’t even finished his sentence when an angry voice interrupted him from the other end.

"You son of a bitch, are you treating my words as farts? Apologize to Wesley now, or be ready to pick the remains of your man-servant!"

"Father, he’s not a man-servant, he’s my lover!" Barrett retorted.

The Underground Emperor’s fury spiked up after hearing this, "You dare to bring that up again, believe it or not, I can have him killed right now!"

At once, Barrett was frightened.

His father might not really kill him, his own son.

But as for others, he could definitely pull the trigger!

For the sake of his lover, Barrett had to compromise, unwillingly and begrudgingly, he said to Yan Ling, "I’m sorry!"

Yan Ling raised her eyebrow, "What?"

"Are you doing it on purpose?" Barrett widened his eyes, wishing he could devour her.

"I didn’t hear that, could you please repeat?" Yan Ling remained unmoved, fiddling with her ear.

Despite his seething rage, Barrett had no choice but to continue apologizing, "I’m sorry!"

Yan Ling once again fiddled with her ear.

His voice was truly deafening!

Publicly humiliated, Barrett just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, so he turned to leave.

"Hang on!"

A light voice came from behind, making Barrett stop in his tracks.

"What do you want to do now?"

Yan Ling laughed lightly, "I just remembered, someone made a bet with me. Since I have proved that I know the Underground Emperor, should the bet be settled now?"

At her words, Louis abruptly turned pale.

He never expected that Yan Ling not only knew the Underground Emperor but had also saved his life.

But to eat shit, that was definitely something he couldn’t do!

Left without options, Louis could only pin his hopes on Barrett.

"Mr. Barrett, I am the one you invited specifically to treat the Underground Emperor. Are you going to stand by and let me be humiliated?"
