Chapter 453 An Existence Not to Be Provoked
Huzi, who had just been harshly slapped across the face by his own father, covered his face and tears of pain streamed down, yet he still didn't understand what was going on.
His father adored him the most, and even if he made a mistake ordinarily, he would just be scolded a bit and that was it.
But to be hit directly, Huzi had encountered it less than five times in his twenty years, and usually when he was a child. After he grew up, because of his pride, his father never hit him.
"Dad! What are you doing!" Huzi covered his face and incredulously roared.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Huzi's father retorted, "You unfilial son, do you want to doom our whole family? Kneel, my child, you have provoked a fearsome figure indeed!"
Hearing his father's words, Huzi suddenly became dumbstruck, a chill creeping up in his heart. How powerful was the person who made his own father watch as he knelt there, leaving him unable to utter a single word?
At this moment, the other kneeling family members also arrived. As they clearly saw the group of spoiled heirs and the King of the new era, Ye Ling, they were all filled with rage.
In front of the shop, luxury cars were gathered en masse, and the crowd that had been watching the commotion had long been dispersed by someone. Inside the food stall, only Ye Ling's table remained, continuing their drinking.
Li Sheng was stunned, feeling numb. He saw his "acquaintances" outside—those were the big bosses of his classmate's company, usually so arrogant, but now behaving as docile as children.
In that moment, Li Sheng finally understood what Ye Ling represented in this international city—he represented the power to turn the clouds and rain and the might to control the world.
Screech, screech, suddenly, a cavalcade of luxurious sports cars pulled up to the curb, and the sound of doors slamming continued one after another.
Maserati, Lamborghini, and even Bugatti, a group of arrogant second-generation heirs stepped out, sneering at the people kneeling on the ground.
"Tsk tsk, someone really had the nerve to provoke Ye Shao and Mo Ge in Donghai City, I'm really speechless, Old Li."
"Hey, isn't that Uncle Li? Your kid sure has made a name for himself. You better not let my dad know about this, otherwise our companies' collaboration orders are going to go down the drain, I'm telling you."
Huzi and the others, seeing those familiar faces, were looking up to those young masters.
With a thud, a youth, overcome by fear, finally gave in and collapsed on the ground, completely dumbfounded. However, his parents quickly pulled him up and continued kneeling, tears in their eyes, but they didn't dare take their child and leave.
At this point, Ye Ling and the others stood up and everyone walked towards the outside. On their arrival, a group of people quickly bent over, "Ye Shao, Mo Shao."
"Ye Shao, Mo Shao," Huzi suddenly remembered the two legends of Donghai City, those two terrifying young men who had nearly stirred up the entire Donghai City.
"Ye Shao, the child is young and ignorant; he has offended you. Please forgive his transgression," Huzi's father hurriedly bent over and approached Ye Ling to whisper.
Ye Ling waved his hand. "Go home and teach him a lesson. If nothing else, he sure isn't lacking in the ability to stir up trouble. He'll end up ruining your family's business sooner or later."
After speaking, the crowd left. The second-generation rich entered their cars one by one, leaving the place. It was only after the crowd had gone that Huzi and the others could no longer hold on and collapsed on the ground.
Watching the departing figures, Huzi and the rest finally understood that they were the most dominant existences, powerful enough to turn the clouds and rain in Donghai City.
Inside a luxury car, Ye Ling looked at Li Sheng who was still in a daze, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, work hard and your day will come too!"
"Believe me, the opportunity has already been given to you. As long as you have the ability, I assure you, it's only a matter of time before you come into your own."
Li Sheng straightened up instantly upon hearing those words, just like when a schoolteacher praised him during his elementary school days, his heart felt as sweet as if he were eating honey.
The wedding date was drawing nearer and everyone in the manor was busy making final preparations. Thankfully, the manor was large enough to accommodate so many people for the wedding banquet.
Ye Ling lay in front of the swimming pool, looking at the few big men in the pool—Shenfeng, Li Tianhao, Ye Wudao, Ao Hongchen, Mo Xing. Damn, why did it feel so nauseating?
According to custom, the women had all returned to their own homes before the wedding, leaving only these few men in the manor. Even Zang Hua and Alice were staying at one of Shen Yuexin's villas.
Usually, it would be enchanting figures swaying in the water—such a pleasing sight. But now, there were a bunch of big men hopping around in here.
"Ah, man, there's really a difference between men and women. Tsk tsk, look at that skin—not to mention whether it's smooth or rough, it's so coarse it would probably scrape your feet raw."
Ye Ling shook his head. Just then, Shenfeng walked out and sat down beside Ye Ling with a plop, wiping the water from his face.
"Ye Ling, where did you find such a top-grade old lecher? He's not like a Golden Core Stage expert at all, but more like a bachelor dog who's over fifty and still single."
Shenfeng shook his head with a wry smile, but he got along pretty well with Li Tianhao and Mo Xing. However, their topics of conversation were a bit shameless, never straying from women.
Ye Ling pursed his lips: "I killed his disciple, and then he insisted on following me, talking some nonsense about repaying karma—just an old guy who freeloads and scams for a living."
"As for you and Ye Wudao, pretty impressive—you both actually broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, not bad, I truly didn't see that coming," Ye Ling said to Shenfeng with a sense of admiration.
Both of them had made a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage on an overseas trip, which was incredible. After all, this step was the hardest to cross.
Shenfeng lifted his head proudly: "Of course, didn't you see who we are? But Ye Ling, I have to tell you something. We stirred up some trouble in the Island Nation."
Ye Ling nodded: "So you caused some trouble, so what? Are they planning to chase after us? If they don't come, fine, but if they do, I'll break their arms and legs."
"What you don't know is, we stole a pearl from a forbidden area. Take a look," Shenfeng said as he took out a pearl from his storage ring.
The pearl was the size of a thumb, surrounded by clouds and mist, filled with spiritual energy. Just smelling it made one feel refreshed and spirited.
Ye Ling was momentarily stunned, he quickly sat up, took the pearl, and after examining it, his expression turned grave. He promptly placed it into his own storage ring.
"Hey hey hey, you scoundrel, what are you doing? I stole that, and now you're hiding it away? Give it back to me, it's a treasure!"
Shenfeng was taken aback. What a shameless Ye Ling, do you even have a face to seize what belongs to others?
Yet Ye Ling shook his head: "A treasure it may be, but you two have brought down great disaster. Keeping this thing with you would be a death curse!"
Upon hearing Ye Ling speak so seriously, Shenfeng tensed up, awkwardly chuckling: "You can't be serious?"

"Not serious? Haha, I assure you, within a month you'll be dead!"
Ye Ling's expression grew stern as a sharp light burst from his eyes.
