Chapter 51.2 Owe No Money (2/2)
Chapter 51.2 Owe No Money (2/2)
She Tianba thought in his heart, It must be those dumb clan lords trying to find trouble. Do they want money? There’s no money! He had already recalled all his people, so he feared none of the cultivation clans. Come at me together, if you dare!
It’s been so many days, and you have proven yourselves incapable of uniting.There’s nothing for me to worry about!
Moreover, if my clan members couldn’t settle the matter, wouldn’t they come here to report the matter? Since there was still no incoming report, She Tianba thought there was nothing to worry about.
He still thought that he had a tight grip on the overall situation. Alas, he forgot that he ordered not to be disturbed no matter what happened while he was making fun of the princess just then.
That was why he did nothing when he heard the clamor from Wang Ke’s barging into the She Clan. On the outside—all the She Clan members were beaten so badly that they could no longer move, and She Tianba had no idea. He was still oblivious of the situation even when the protestors were dividing his clan’s wealth.
She Tianba didn’t notice how the princess had already pitched in to worsen the whole sabotage.
Only two hours later—he heard a loud sound.
“Rumble!”
The dungeon’s stone door was opened all of a sudden; She Tianba jumped up to his horror.
“Clan Lord, I’m sorry. We really could not endure their whipping anymore! Clan Lord, what’s taking you so long! We’re dying already!” a She Clan member wailed from outside the stone door.
He was hoping his clan lord would go to their rescue, but She Tianba was cowardly hiding in the dungeon. The She Clan members eventually lost hope, finally revealing the dungeon’s location.
“What?” She Tianba could not believe what had happened.
“Water dungeon? So it’s hidden under the She Clan’s well! She Tianba, you really knew how to hide your hostage!” a clan lord exclaimed.
“There’s no use opening the stone door. We need to remove the soil and rocks above the dungeon. Come, let’s do it together!” There was another round of loud noises.
“Rumble! Krak!”
The water dungeon shook violently. Suddenly, the ceiling cracked open while rocks and soil fell.
“Be careful!” Wang Ke’s voice could be heard.
Rumble!
The water dungeon was exposed once the rocks stopped falling and the dust settled.
Princess Youyue was hiding by the edge of her cell so she wasn’t affected. But on the other side, She Tianba’s face was covered in dirt; his mood seemed to be extremely unpleasant.
“Whh…what?” She Tianba looked upward and saw numerous powerful cultivators.
It’s only been a short while since I entered secluded cultivation; how is it that this many people came to my place?All the highly reputed cultivators in town are here?Is the main court above filled with people?These guys must be crazy!How dare they invade the She Clan!
“Wang Ke!” She Tianba screamed when he saw Wang Ke standing at the center of the crowd.
Didn’t I already inform Zhang Shenxu so he could intercept Wang Ke?Why is he here?What did Zhang Shenxu and his men do?Are they all useless scum?
Also, what’s happening now?I thought everyone in this town hated Wang Ke to the core!Why are they all smiling at him?Have they gone nuts?
“She Tianba, you really are alive!” Wang Ke looked at She Tianba with an icy look.
“Clan Lord Wang, your wife is down there!”
“She’s safe!”
“Quick, let’s move out the debris and bring her out! ”
……………………
………………
……
Numerous cultivators eagerly started working on the rescue—
But She Tianba leaped out from the opening and looked around him.
The She Clan members were still alive, but all of them were covered in wounds and bruises. How miserable!
“Clan Lord, what took you so long!” his clan members complained in tears, their faces swollen.
“How did things turn out like this? How! Are you all sick of living?” She Tianba roared to the cultivators that surrounded him.
“You are the one that’s sick of living. She Tianba, you cheated us and took our money! We’re here to get it back!
“The debtor must pay; this is right and proper. Do you know what’s the most painful thing in the world? Being alive but without money!”
“Give us back our money!”
……………………
………………
……
All the clan lords cried out.
“Why are you asking me for money? Wang Ke should be the one responsible!” She Tianba roared back.
“I don’t owe them any money!” Wang Ke rebutted.
She Tianba was stunned since all the surrounding clan lords nodded. Indeed. He had practically finished refunding the investments for the financial products just then. Wang Ke didn’t borrow any money from the clan lords either; She Tianba was the one who borrowed it.
“Don’t you know that Wang Ke ripped me off?” She Tianba was infuriated.
But all the clan lords despised him. Are you really trying to deceive us in front of Wang Ke?
Before any of the clan lords spoke, Wang Ke shouted, “Let’s not talk about who cheated who for now. She Tianba, what has your debt with the clan lords got anything to do with me? Even if I ripped you off, it has nothing to do with the clan lords! Not to mention that I didn’t swindle your money! You are the one who owes them money, not me!”
She Tianba: “……………………!”
Wang Ke turned around and spoke to thousands of cultivators surrounding them, “Everyone! Do I, Wang Ke, owe you any money? Please tell She Tianba if I even owe a single cent to any of you!”
“Nope!” Everyone responded as one.
She Tianba: “……………………!”
Did I cultivate in seclusion for too long this time around?The entire Zhu Cultivation Town is different now! Have all these people gone insane?Wang Ke cheated so much money from them, and yet their answer is “no”?What happened while I was gone?
“My wife, come to me!” Wang Ke called Princess Youyue, who had just been rescued.
The princess remained silent, but she was already on her way to where he was.
“Your wife? Haha, she is Princess Youyue! And you have the face to say that?” She Tianba mocked as he was about to block the princess’ way.
But right after he spoke… Everyone looked at She Tianba with contempt. Even now, you’re still calling her Princess Youyue?You still want to fool us?Aren’t you seeing this woman walk toward Wang Ke?Who else would she be if not Mrs. Wang?
“Tsssshing!” A flying sword appeared in front of Wang Ke, whose hostility was already locked onto She Tianba.
“She Tianba, don’t you dare move. My flying sword shows no mercy!” Wang Ke threatened.
Same move?
“Another second-hand flying sword?” She Tianba mocked, “Why isn’t it smoking this time around?”
