#355 - The female boss’s face-slapping routine?
The two disciples thought they had lowered their voices, assuming no one else could hear their discussion.
But little did they know that Liang Jin and Yu Linglong's cultivation levels far surpassed theirs; every word was like a clear drumbeat, steadily falling into their ears.
Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong couldn't help but turn her head, her gaze like an arrow, shooting unkindly towards Liang Jin.
Liang Jin immediately felt a headache coming on.
He never imagined that there would be people spreading rumors about him all over Azurewave City, maliciously slandering him.
If Yu Linglong wasn't present, he would have rushed over without hesitation and taught these two ignorant disciples a good lesson, forcing them to reveal the source of the rumors.
But at this moment, with Yu Linglong right in front of him, he naturally didn't dare to act rashly.
Liang Jin quickly explained:
"Sect Leader, please believe me!"
"Since joining the sect, I have always been loyal and devoted, wholeheartedly serving the sect, working diligently, and never violating the sect rules or undermining morality in the slightest."
"The rumors they speak of are purely fabricated, clearly someone is jealous of me and maliciously concocting them to slander me."
"I implore the Sect Leader to investigate!"
He knew in his heart that if these unfounded rumors ruined his efforts to please the leader tonight, it would truly be a bitter pill to swallow.
Yu Linglong quietly gazed at Liang Jin, and after a moment, slowly spoke:
"I believe you."
"If you had truly done such disgraceful things, Elder Li would have surely reported you to me long ago."
As a superior, she was occupied with countless affairs and had no energy to constantly monitor whether her subordinates were making mistakes.
As the saying goes, the person who knows you best is often your enemy.
A superior only needs to support someone who opposes a subordinate, and once the subordinate makes a mistake, the opponent will report it to the superior at the first opportunity.
And Elder Li was Liang Jin's mortal enemy.
Liang Jin felt relieved and let out a long sigh.
Fortunately, he had been ingratiating himself with the leader all the way today, which had given her a good impression of him.
Otherwise, if these rumors had reached Yu Linglong's ears yesterday, his image in Yu Linglong's heart would have plummeted instantly.
Immediately, Liang Jin exclaimed:
"Miss is wise!"
"In my opinion, she's probably a girl who ran away from some backwater hick's wealthy family, bringing a big, muscle-bound brute who only knows how to flatter, and thinks she's rich beyond compare."
"Doesn't she even look at where she is? This is Azurewave City! A prosperous place where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold!"
… …
This series of sarcastic remarks was spoken without any pretense, clearly intended for Liang Jin and Yu Linglong to hear.
Upon hearing this, the two of them frowned and looked in the direction of the sound.
They saw a group of gorgeously dressed women standing not far away.
It was clear at a glance that these women had extraordinary identities; they were dressed in silk and satin, adorned with jewels, and exuded an extraordinary aura in their gestures.
Especially around them, a large number of servants, maids, and guards were clustered; roughly counting, there were at least forty or fifty attendants.
As soon as this group of women appeared, those with any discernment consciously dared not approach.
It turned out that this group of women had witnessed Yu Linglong's constant buying spree along the way, sweeping away almost all the stalls, and found it very ridiculous, so they spoke out in sarcasm.
"Miss, I'll go slap them a few times for you," Liang Jin said in a deep voice.
He had finally brought the leader out for a stroll, and he couldn't let her return disappointed.
Therefore, he didn't care what the identities of these women were.
Even if princesses and empresses came, he would have no fear.
Moreover, Yu Linglong, as a remnant of the previous dynasty, was determined to restore the country, so how could she put the current dynasty's princesses and empresses in her eyes.
At this moment, Liang Jin was already itching to get started, determined to vent this anger for the leader.
However, Yu Linglong raised her hand to stop Liang Jin.
She faced the group of women and slowly walked over, asking with a calm expression:
"Who are you people?"
The group of women obviously didn't expect Yu Linglong to dare to take the initiative to walk over, and couldn't help but cover their mouths and let out contemptuous laughter.
One of the wealthy women spoke:
"Little girl, you want to know who we are? Then you better listen carefully."
"This is Liu Yan, the wife of Boss Wang, the richest man in Azurewave City. Her family has as many as fifty merchant ships traveling back and forth in this sea area, constantly making money for her family. See that Sea Treasure Pavilion next to you? It's located in the most prosperous area of Azurewave City, making a lot of money every day; that's her family's shop."
"This is Wu Meng, the eldest daughter of the Wu family, a martial arts family in Dongzhou. She is a martial arts prodigy; at only twenty years old, she is already a dignified sixth-grade martial artist! Her father, Wu Guang, is even more of a renowned figure in the Dongzhou martial arts world, a fifth-grade top expert!"
"As for me, I am Zhang Cuilan, the wife of the magistrate of Azurewave City!"
This wealthy woman, who called herself Zhang Cuilan, was full of pride.
Little did she know that, in Yu Linglong's ears, their identities were nothing more than insignificant nobodies, and they even dared to laugh at her.
But Zhang Cuilan didn't plan to stop there; she pointed at the veil on Yu Linglong's face and continued to mock:
"Little girl, are you too ugly? Why are you covering your face with a veil?"
"Oh my, the material of this veil is actually high-quality silk. However, it looks like it was torn from a piece of clothing!"
"Oh dear, come and see, it really was torn from her sleeve!"
"Her clothes are so tattered, yet she's still wearing them; how embarrassing. If it were me, I would have thrown them away long ago."
"It seems you truly are a daughter from a nouveau riche family, only knowing how to be frugal. You can even use one piece of clothing for two purposes, how petty."
"Little girl, do you think the clothes in our Azurewave City are too expensive? How about we sisters give you some money to buy some decent clothes to wear?"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding women burst into laughter.
This Zhang Cuilan spoke sharply and meanly, completely unaware of what kind of person she had provoked.
Only to see a cold smile appear on Yu Linglong's lips, her eyes already filled with killing intent.
Seeing this, Liang Jin was secretly delighted, the opportunity had come again!
How to help the leader vent their anger when they are angry is a great skill.
If he just rushed up and killed all these women, although simple and crude, it would only be a bad move.
So what is a good way?
Naturally, it is to let the leader show off and slap faces to their heart's content, that is the most satisfying!
And the essence of showing off and slapping faces is none other than pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.
But even so, it can only be considered a medium strategy.
Because in this process, these so-called "villains" cannot be beaten to death with one blow from the beginning, but must be advanced step by step, with twists and turns.
This is the best strategy.

With a turn of mind, Liang Jin immediately spoke in a deep voice:
"You two, get over here!"
Although he spoke, the sound did not come from his mouth, but directly exploded in the ears of the two Huolongmen disciples who were speaking ill of Liang Jin in the distance.
This sudden sound scared the two Huolongmen disciples out of their wits.
They turned their heads in horror, only to see Liang Jin waving at them.
Although the two were so frightened that their legs were weak and they were about to wet their pants, they did not dare to stop for a moment and hurriedly ran to Liang Jin.
Liang Jin suppressed the urge to slap them a few times and whispered a few words in their ears.
The two Huolongmen disciples were shocked when they heard this.
But under Liang Jin's stern gaze, they could only obey and then left in a hurry.
And Liang Jin, just as Yu Linglong was about to lose her temper, strode to her side and said to the group of women in a deep voice:
"You few are just some down-and-out households, what qualifications do you have to talk about my young lady?"
Liang Jin's words did not make these women angry, but instead brought them more disdain.
Just like a rich man walking on the street being scolded as poor, they will not be angry, but will only feel disdain; while a poor man being scolded as poor will be angry, because it hits the sore spot.
Obviously, these women were not hit on their sore spot.
Yu Linglong was already prepared to take action, but was interrupted by Liang Jin's sudden action.
She couldn't help but stop her movements and looked at Liang Jin suspiciously:
"What are you doing?"
Liang Jin winked at her, signaling her to leave everything to him.
Although Yu Linglong was full of doubts, she still suppressed her anger and watched what would happen next.
At this time, Liu Yan, a woman named among the group, stood up and continued to mock Liang Jin and the two of them for Zhang Cuilan:
"It's really ridiculous, a small guard, who is so big, doesn't even have a bit of eyesight. It's obvious that he came from a small place and has never seen the world."
"The money my family earns in a day, you bumpkins can't earn in a lifetime! And you dare to say that we are down-and-out households?"
"Heh, it's simply laughable!"
Liu Yan was full of jewels, and it was obvious that she was extremely rich.
Liang Jin listened and sighed secretly in his heart, isn't this the brainless villain role who flaunts his wealth?
There really are such people.
That's good, everything can be done according to the routine.
So, Liang Jin said with a smile:
"So it turns out to be the richest man's wife, I heard that your family has a lot of ships, more than fifty?"
Liu Yan glanced at Liang Jin disdainfully, too lazy to pay attention to him at all.
Liang Jin continued unhurriedly:
"Then do you know who owns this port?"
Liu Yan said contemptuously:
"Who's? Could it be yours?"
"Saying you are a bumpkin, you really are ignorant."
"I'll just kindly tell you, let you broaden your horizons, the ownership of this Azurewave City port belongs to the Chamber of Commerce."
The port of Azurewave City is not privately owned, but is the property of the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce.
This Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce is the largest commercial organization in Dongzhou, with businesses all over most of Dongzhou, and can be called a behemoth in the economic field of Dongzhou.
Liang Jin smiled slightly, it seems that Liu Yan really doesn't know that the biggest boss behind the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce is Huolongmen.
Many of the business gangs in the Chamber of Commerce are actually controlled by the forces of Huolongmen.
Huolongmen secretly controls the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce to earn huge amounts of money, in order to prepare enough funds for the great cause of national restoration one day.
Liang Jin knew in his heart that he only needed to act according to the normal routine of showing off and slapping faces next, even if the routine was a bit clichéd, it would be enough to please the leader.
It's just… since the leader is female, the routine naturally needs to be slightly modified.
In particular, the aura of a female CEO must be highlighted!
Even if it's a bit exaggerated, it's worth it.
"Someone!"
Liang Jin suddenly shouted loudly.
The next moment, a Huolongmen disciple instantly appeared beside Liang Jin.
Liang Jin only heard Liang Jin instruct:
"Pass down the order, drive all the ships of this madam's family out of the port!"
"Furthermore, any ships belonging to her family, or ships that have business dealings with her family, are not allowed to dock in Azurewave Port!"
