Chapter 399, Let Me Take Care of the Loong Family For You
by SilavinTranslator: Silavin
Lu Fan’s interruption of Loong Erhu’s words left the latter stunned.
After a moment of silence, he asked, “What do you mean by that?”
Lu Fan spoke directly. “All this nonsense about resource disputes between your Loong Family and the Ye Family is a waste of time. Don’t waste time explaining it to me. We both know that your Loong Family just wants these resources and is looking for an excuse to take them. I didn’t come to the Western Border to argue with you, I came to handle actual business rather than rattle my mouth. So, I’ll be direct. The resources currently in the Ye Family’s possession – your Loong Family can forget about them. They won’t end up in your hands.”
“In fact, the resources your Loong Family previously seized from the Ye Family, you’ll return them all with interest. As for how much, that depends on what my Senior Sister, or rather Ye Wuxian, wants.”
Speaking thus far, Lu Fan turned to Ye Wuxian and said. “Senior Sister, I told you before, whatever resources from the Loong Family catch your eye, just tell me, okay? Since the Loong Family members are all here now, why don’t you notify them to prepare the resource transfer agreements? In a few days, I’ll accompany you to collect them.”
“Well…” Ye Wuxian was taken aback, completely not expecting Lu Fan’s domineering words.
Originally, the Loong Family had come to demand resources from the Ye Family, but Lu Fan had suddenly reversed the situation and was now asking what resources they wanted from the Loong Family.
The roles of plunderer and plundered had completely switched.
Earlier, Lu Fan had indeed told Ye Wuxian that since he was here, he had no intention of letting things end peacefully with the Huang and Loong Families, and certainly would not stop at just helping the Ye Family reclaim their stolen resources.
For Lu Fan, for every resource these two Ancient Noble Families took, they should return ten!
If Ye Wuxian agreed, Lu Fan would even eliminate both great Ancient Noble Families and incorporate their resources into the Ye Family!
At the time, Ye Wuxian had thought Lu Fan was joking with her and had not taken it seriously. But now, Lu Fan dared to say such things in front of the Loong Family. He was clearly not joking. He really intended to do exactly what he said!
Ye Wuxian had no doubt that if she expressed a desire for the Huang and Loong families, Lu Fan would cheerfully say, ‘Well, that makes things simpler’, and then start killing, beating the two great Ancient Noble Families until they obediently surrendered all their resources before fleeing in disgrace from the Western Border.
Seeing Ye Wuxian momentarily speechless, Lu Fan knew his Senior Sister had not considered what she wanted from the Loong Family.
He shook his head helplessly, thinking that since his Senior Sister had not thought about this issue, he would give her more time.
Besides, since not all Loong Family members were here, this matter could not be settled immediately.
So, Lu Fan added, “It’s fine if you haven’t decided yet, take your time to think about it. Whenever you decide, that’s when I’ll let those from the Loong Family leave. If you really can’t decide at the end of the day what you want from the Loong Family, then I’ll make the decision. Though, that would mean eliminating the Loong Family for you. Either way, you can take your time choosing what you want from them.”
After Lu Fan finished speaking, Loong Erhu and the others finally could not hold back and burst into laughter.
In their eyes, Lu Fan’s words made him look no different from an idiot.
Especially Loong Erhu, who had originally thought that since Lu Fan could wound Loong Xing, he must be someone extremely strong.
He had come this time to force the Ye Family to hand over resources, thinking Lu Fan would likely step forward to negotiate with him.
Instead, Lu Fan had completely ignored the usual protocol; not only laying everything bare but even making outrageous claims about making the Loong Family pay!
Since he was only a Second Profession Player, how could he possibly make an Ancient Noble Family like the Loong Family pay any price!? Did he really think that defeating Loong Xing meant he could disregard the Loong Family?
Their Loong Family had five Fourth Profession Players, and Loong Xing was merely the weakest among them.
To them, they were willing to admit that this Dragon Tamer certainly had some skills since he could defeat Loong Xing. However, wanting to challenge the Loong Family was simply overestimating himself.
Lu Fan’s earlier words sounded like an enormous joke to Loong Erhu, making him laugh uncontrollably.
Not just him, but Loong Xing and the others reacted similarly.
Lu Fan watched these laughing people with interest and asked. “What do you find so funny?”
“Haha, sorry, Little Brother, you’re too good at joking, I just really couldn’t help myself.” Loong Erhu rubbed his forehead, finally managing to calm down. I really didn’t expect that for my visit to the Ye Family, I’d meet someone as interesting as you. According to you, our Loong Family forcibly seized the Ye Family’s resources?”
Lu Fan smiled and nodded, saying. “Wasn’t that the case?”
“Hehe, if you say so.” Loong Xing shrugged, looking at Lu Fan like he was watching a comedy play out. “So what if our Loong Family did seize the Ye Family’s resources? Are you going to make the decision and have our Loong Family return it a hundredfold?”
Lu Fan nodded and said. “That’s exactly what I was thinking. Since your Loong Family mentions returning it a hundredfold, that’s good enough. Senior Sister, you don’t need to worry about what resources to take from the Loong Family as compensation. If I remember correctly, the Loong Family took nearly twenty Map Resources from the Ye Family, while the Loong Family’s total resources are only about three hundred. Since that’s the case, I’ll just take down the Loong Family for you and have all their resources transferred to the Ye Family.”
Ye Wuxian looked at Loong Erhu’s increasingly amused expression, then at Lu Fan’s completely solemn expression. She could not help but laugh, nodding. “Alright, I’ll follow your lead.”
She knew that right now, Loong Erhu probably had no idea what their Loong Family was about to face.
Seeing Ye Wuxian and Lu Fan acting so serious, having already decided to take down the Loong Family, Loong Xing lost his patience for further discussion with Lu Fan.
He stood up, golden light enveloping his body, already prepared for battle.
“Enough! Brat, I’m done talking!” Loong Erhu began applying Buffs one after another, rapidly increasing his Defence and Attributes.
In an instant, he was radiating golden light, with the illusionary image of a golden bell protecting him, making him appear invincible.
“The Huang Family will arrive soon, and I don’t want to discuss ownership of Ye Family resources with you at the same time as the Huang Family. I think I need to teach you a lesson first, to let you know that we didn’t come here to joke around with you!”
After a pause, Loong Erhu crossed his arms and sneered. “Since you’re younger, I’ll let you use three Skills first. If you can hurt me with three Skills, I’ll consider it your victory, and I’ll immediately leave. After three Skills, if you can’t hurt me, don’t blame me for bullying someone younger than me!”
