Chapter 452: Let go

Seeing Zhang Qiling's shocked expression, Sun Yingyue said.

"Don't worry, Old Jia knows his limits when he starts fighting."

Zhang Qiling heard this and quickly waved her hands, saying.

"I didn't mean it that way."

"Sigh, you really don't know how strong Lin Yang is."

By this point, Zhang Qiling was still speaking up for Lin Yang.

Sun Yingyue said, somewhat dissatisfied.

"Ling'er, you've always been sharp in Modu, so how did you end up in Jinling?"

"You've been completely duped by a guy."

"Duped completely?"

Zhang Qiling asked, half-disbelieving.

"Do you think I've been completely duped by Lin Yang?"

"Or isn't it?"

Sun Yingyue retorted.

Without letting Zhang Qiling speak, she pointed at the Maybach and said.

"This Maybach was also a gift from you to him, right?"

"Also, we saw you transfer money to him to settle the bill."

"This guy is just sponging off you, you know?"

"As your best friend, I'm going to scold you awake!"

"Modu has so many rich second-gen chasing you, yet you refused them all, but here in Jinling you ended up being deceived!"

Zhang Qiling was also amused, laughing hysterically as she looked at her best friend and said.

"You've misunderstood!"

"This guy isn't a sponge, and he won't sponge off me either."

"He's also excellent—even my older brother ended up losing to him."

Hearing Zhang Qiling say that, Sun Yingyue looked at her suspiciously.

"Is what you're saying true? Has your older brother even met him?"

"Exactly, I came to Jinling after hearing my older brother talk about him."

"The person you mentioned who shone at the exchange conference and slaughtered the Fusang people is also him."

Sun Yingyue still doubtful, said to Zhang Qiling.

"Then you just gave him money?"

Upon hearing that, Zhang Qiling momentarily didn't know what to say.

"Could it be that I have to tell the truth, but that would hurt too much."

Seeing Zhang Qiling silent, Sun Yingyue let out a cute huff and said.

"This is hard to explain now."

He had just finished speaking when Lin Yang walked over.

He looked at Zhang Qiling and slowly spoke.

"I've already held back; he's just too weak."

Sun Yingyue heard this and was stunned.

She immediately turned her gaze toward the riverbank.

Then she saw Jia Pingzhen with his eyes closed, lying on the ground.

Seeing her husband lying on the ground, Sun Yingyue shouted.

"Old Jia!"

Seeing Sun Yingyue rush over, Zhang Qiling immediately extended her hand toward Lin Yang.

"Pay me back!"

She put one hand on her hips, spoke with a hint of anger.

"I gave you the money, and this is how you handle it?"

"You know you're supposed to use money to get things done?"

Hearing Zhang Qiling's words, Lin Yang picked his nose and said to her.

"I've already held back; he's just too weak—I only threw one punch."

Seeing Lin Yang's nonchalant expression, Zhang Qiling said through gritted teeth.

"I don't care; I just want you to pay me back!"

"Right now, return all the money to me!"

As she demanded money from Lin Yang, Sun Yingyue shouted.

"Ling'er, Old Jia fainted—hurry and send him to the hospital!"

Looking at the anxious Sun Yingyue, Zhang Qiling said to Lin Yang.

"Why aren't you hurrying to save him?"

Lin Yang slowly walked over, looking at the anxious Sun Yingyue.

"Don't panic, he just fainted from an external force."

Saying that, he squatted down and pressed a pressure point on him.

Jia Pingzhen let out a muffled groan and woke up.

He woke up, gasping heavily.

Then he raised his head, looking at Lin Yang in disbelief.

This guy is truly terrifying.

Just now, he walked over to me leisurely, then slowly raised his hand.

Before I could even resist, I lost consciousness.

He had only felt such overwhelming power from his family's elders.

He stood up, glanced at Lin Yang, and raised his hand with some reluctance.

"Before, I underestimated you; you're really strong, and Ling'er wasn't lying."

Zhang Qiling, hearing that, looked proudly at Sun Yingyue and said.

"Yingyue, I didn't lie to you, right?"

Sun Yingyue pouted, linking her arm with Jia Pingzhen's without speaking.

Jia Pingzhen said to Lin Yang.

"I admit you're formidable, but you're still not worthy of Ling'er."

"If you want to be with her, it's not just about strength; you also need a background that doesn't lose to his family!"

Just as Jia Pingzhen was about to launch into a long speech, Lin Yang turned and walked away.

He had no obligation to listen to their nonsense here.

Seeing Lin Yang about to leave, Jia Pingzhen shouted.

"I know you're unwilling to accept this, but that's the reality."

"Unless your power can surpass the Zhang family!"

Lin Yang stopped, looking at Jia Pingzhen.

"You rich young masters are just frogs in a well, always thinking your family is strong."

"Having said that, he got in the car and drove off."

Seeing Lin Yang leave, Jia Pingzhen shook his head and said to Zhang Qiling.

"Ling'er, this person has no scheming at all; I really don't think highly of you two."

"Don't forget, someone has declared they want to marry you."

"Do you think this guy named Lin Yang could be a match for that person?"

Upon mentioning that person, Zhang Qiling's pretty face slightly changed color.

Then, she said somewhat angrily.

"It's obvious there's nothing between me and Lin Yang, yet you insist we're getting married."

"Moreover, that guy in front of Lin Yang can only get beaten!"

Sun Yingyue asked Zhang Qiling in surprise.

"Do you really think so highly of this guy?"

Zhang Qiling said: "It's not whether I think highly of him; he really is that strong!"

Having said that, she turned and left.

Lin Yang returned home; with a thought, a jade pendant automatically appeared in his sachet.

This jade pendant was bought together with the sachet; it's also a treasure.

Looking at the jade pendant, Lin Yang smiled slightly.

"I didn't expect to still be able to see the legendary spiritual jade."

He smiled slightly, activated the Gathering Spirit Array, and placed the spirit stone on the array's focal point.

Now, the Gathering Spirit Array is fully activated; the spiritual energy purity in the room is very high.

It allows him, who has entered the Jié dān stage, to cultivate with twice the results for half the effort.

Moreover, the mountain-protecting grand array is fully activated.

He is confident that even if a late-stage Jié dān cultivator comes, he can slay them!

Just as he was about to cultivate, a knocking sounded at the door.

Lin Yang waved his hand, and the gate swung open.

"Come in."

The person who entered was none other than Sun Yingyue.

Seeing it was Sun Yingyue, Lin Yang was somewhat surprised.

"Anything up?"

Sun Yingyue looked at Lin Yang and got straight to the point.

"I came to find you because I hope you and Ling'er break up."

"You two are not from the same world."

"She is the princess of the Zhang family in Modu, and the young master of the Peng family, one of the royal families of Yanjing, has already declared he wants to marry her."

"If you stay with her, the one who will end up hurt is you."

"Let go; our social stratum is not something you can enter."
