Urban Supreme Wild Son-in-Law War God-Chapter 735 - Licking Dog Does Not Depend on Age
Others may not know the identities of these two women, but he was only too aware, the bald man dared not talk back, yet he attributed all of this to Ye Ling.
The bald man glared viciously at Ye Ling, and thought contemptuously, "Hmph! A waste, a rookie who just joined the Ten Absolutes Sect, I could crush you with one finger!"
However, the bald man wasn't foolish. Although he wished he could grind Ye Ling to dust, he kept a stoic facade and looked down on Ye Ling with disdain, as if he were looking at an ant.
Ye Ling glanced at the bald man indifferently, his eyes narrowing into slits.
In this world, there will always be some people who never understand the need to keep a low profile, who never comprehend what humility and kindness mean.
The bald man was merely an ordinary half-step Saint at best and yet he dared to bark and shout at Ye Ling – Ye Ling just couldn't be bothered with him.
He couldn't help but lament internally; it seemed bootlickers came in all ages and strengths, and he had seen too many of the likes of this bald bootlicker.
Both Xia Qing and Xia Xue had gentle personalities, not liking to cause trouble nor to stir up disputes.
However, the bald man kept provoking without end, and Xia Qing and Xia Xue couldn't bear it anymore, hence the outburst.
Seeing the situation getting awkward, Brother Hu intervened to smooth things over, looking at Ye Ling with a hint of curiosity shining in his eyes, "Number One, what level of task did you complete?"
Ye Ling simply said, "Wait until we settle up, and you'll know."
Brother Hu, upon hearing Ye Ling's words, felt a flicker of disappointment in the depths of his eyes, thinking, could it be a C-level task?
But he soon let it go, after all, the rewards for a C-level task were quite substantial. How could Ye Ling, a young disciple of but twenty-five or twenty-six years, possibly achieve a B-level task?
"Haha!" The bald man couldn't help but burst into uproarious laughter.
"Number One, you're still young. If you want to learn the art of assassination, you can come to me. Maybe I'll teach you if I'm in a good mood someday," said the bald man with a smile.
Hearing the bald man's words, Ye Ling just smiled lightly and stayed silent.
Brother Hu also shot a displeased glance at the bald man, a flicker of annoyance shining in his eyes.
He ran a nightclub called "Night Colors," which made a profit of about a hundred thousand or so Energy Stones a month, and his main income came from the commissions he earned from settling everyone's task completions.
The bald man's arrogant words were a blunt strike to Ye Ling's dignity, so how could he not be annoyed?
However, he couldn't very well lose his temper. Fortunately, they had arrived at the Ten Absolutes Sect, so there was no need to put up with the bald man's nonsense anymore.
"Alright, let's go settle up. After we finish the task, we can chat more, how about that?" Brother Hu said cheerfully.
Ye Ling nodded, "Sure!"
Soon the four of them got out of the car and headed towards the base of the Ten Absolutes Sect.
No sooner had they entered than they heard a voice full of scorn, which made no attempt to disguise itself: "Yo, it's only been a day, and you're already here to turn in the task?"
This voice was filled with mockery, and from the tone, it seemed as if, in his eyes, the performance of Ye Ling and his party amounted to nothing but utter trash.
Upon hearing the voice, Brother Hu immediately frowned and turned his head to look toward the source of the voice.
"Hmph, Li Feng, you better watch your mouth!"
Li Feng had always been at odds with Brother Hu. Whenever they met, it was a clash of wills, but Brother Hu had always endured, for this was the territory of the Ten Absolutes Sect.
Now, Li Feng had repeatedly challenged Brother Hu's authority, and Brother Hu could no longer contain his anger. With a cold snort, he shouted sternly, "You'd better mind your language!"
"Hmph!"
Li Feng cast a glance at Brother Hu and taunted again, "Heh, Brother Hu, the newbies you've been bringing lately aren't up to much, are they?"
Li Feng's words were akin to a blatant humiliation of Ye Ling and his companions, delivered in front of so many people, which caused their faces to lose face and turn exceedingly dark.
Brother Hu, too, was gnashing his teeth, glaring at Li Feng with eyes full of rage, "Li Feng, don't you push it too far. If you dare to slander my friends here, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Wow, Brother Hu, you're really defending these four pieces of trash? I'd like to see just how you're going to be rude. Could it be that you want to hit me?" Li Feng said with a cold laugh.
Upon hearing this, Brother Hu became furiously enraged and was about to step forward to get physical with Li Feng, but Ye Ling stopped him.
"Brother Hu, forget it!" Ye Ling said indifferently.
"This bastard Li Feng is going too far. I can't let him insult you like this."
"Don't worry, I've noted this account today and will claim it back from him sooner or later," Brother Hu said, clenching his fists.
"Forget it, Brother Hu. We're here to submit our task, not to stoop to the level of a jumping clown like him," Ye Ling said, patting Brother Hu on the shoulder, his tone very calm.
"Right!"
Brother Hu nodded heavily and took a deep breath, "Let's go, I'll take you to submit the task."
Ye Ling nodded and then followed Brother Hu.
Seeing that Ye Ling was no longer arguing with him, a trace of disdain flashed in Li Feng's eyes.
He didn't believe that here, this Ye Ling could turn the world upside down.
Following that, Ye Ling and Brother Hu walked into the grand hall of the Ten Absolutes Sect under the watchful eyes of many.
"Hello, I'm here to submit my task!" Ye Ling took out his points card and handed it to the staff member.
The staff member glanced at Ye Ling's points card and his eyeballs nearly popped out.
"What! You actually completed an A-rank task!" the staff member exclaimed excitedly.
An A-rank task was an incredibly difficult task. In the entire Ten Absolutes Sect, those who could complete such a task could be counted on one hand!
Yet Ye Ling, who had only just joined as a newcomer, had completed an A-rank task!
This simply astonished everyone!
"What!" Li Feng was also taken aback and his face turned instantly pale.
Li Feng hadn't expected Ye Ling to be so formidable and to have completed an A-rank task, something that had never happened before!
This meant that the newcomer brought by Brother Hu was more capable than he was!
With that thought, Li Feng suddenly felt as if he had lost all his face! ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Although Li Feng was a spoiled young master, he was not stupid. He knew very well that he and Brother Hu were not on the same level, and if the struggle continued, he would definitely be the one to suffer.
Li Feng's mind raced, his face revealing an embarrassed expression, and without daring to delay another moment, he left in a dejected manner.
Xia Qing and Xia Xue had mentally prepared themselves, but upon hearing the staff member say that Ye Ling had actually completed an A-rank task, they still felt somewhat shocked.
