Chapter 382 Resolving the Aftermath
Chapter 382 Resolving the Aftermath
Long Jingyun really thought he was going to die, but in the end Lu Yang actually let him go.
He felt like he had survived a disaster.
At this moment, Lu Yang's words sounded like a royal decree to him. He dared not disobey and hurriedly nodded and bowed, saying, "Lu Yang... no... Master, from now on, whatever you ask me to do, I will do without hesitation. Even if you want me to sleep with you..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yang's expression changed drastically, and he quickly interrupted, "Shut up!"
"Now you just need to sit still and not resist me in any way!"
Long Jingyun obediently followed Lu Yang's instructions, quickly sitting cross-legged and relaxing her mind, daring not to resist in the slightest.
Lu Yang immediately began to draw rapidly in the air with his fingers, and a servant mark quickly appeared, flashing with a gray light.
Seeing this, Lu Yang waved his hand and said, "Go!"
The servant mark immediately came to life, disappearing directly into Long Jingyun's brow.
Long Jingyun froze, immediately sensing with horror that something was branded directly onto his soul. If he ever showed any resistance or rebellion towards Lu Yang, a single thought from the other party would be enough to annihilate him, leaving him with no place to bury his body.
Long Jingyun had never witnessed such terrifying methods before, and he completely gave up any thought of taking revenge on Lu Yang.
He even felt a strange sense of relief, because at that crucial moment, he had actually begged for mercy and become the other party's servant; otherwise, he would probably be a cold corpse by now.
Although he had become the other party's servant, with his life and death controlled by the other party, he was also a smart man. He knew that Lu Yang must have a reason for not killing him, and that there was something he needed Lu Yang to do for the other party.
He couldn't help but secretly resolve that he would definitely help the other party in the future and truly do what a servant should do.
Having witnessed Lu Yang's terrifying ability to imprint servant marks on people, he could easily guess that the other party was probably not as simple as he had imagined.
You could even say that the other party could be a powerful ally, and as long as he does his job well, he'll be well-fed if the other party leaves him even slightly behind.
Immediately, he knelt down and asked Lu Yang obsequiously, "Master, what are your orders now?"
Lu Yang was surprised that Long Jingyun had adapted to his servant status so quickly, and could even call his master so fluently. A satisfied look appeared on his lips.
He nodded and said, "You're very smart. As long as you help me with my affairs in the future, you'll definitely reap the rewards!"
He immediately lowered his voice and whispered, "I just killed Cui Yonghe, and this matter is bound to be leaked. I just want to delay the Cui family's discovery. Now you know what to do, right?"
Long Jingyun immediately assured him confidently, "Master, this is actually easy to handle. I just need to make everyone present shut up!"
"I have plenty of ways to deal with them, and they wouldn't dare tell a word!"
"As for the Cui family, I only need to go there personally and tell them that Cui Yonghe tried to awaken his bull-headed bird bloodline using the Phoenix Spirit Herb in the Phoenix Secret Realm, but accidentally failed, causing his bloodline to explode, leading to him going into a qi deviation and dying directly in the Phoenix Secret Realm!"
Lu Yang naturally believed that Long Jingyun had the ability to shut up the other young masters and noblemen from the capital. After all, these young masters and noblemen all followed him and Cui Yonghe. Now that Cui Yonghe was gone, Long Jingyun was their real boss.
He naturally had ways to make them shut up obediently, so that they wouldn't reveal a single thing about what happened today. Instead, they would agree with him and help him lie.
As for other sect disciples and aristocratic family scions, they were even easier to deal with.
He immediately stood up, walked to the remaining five young masters and noblemen, and whispered a few words to them. After looking at Lu Yang, the young masters and noblemen all nodded in agreement.
To get their blood oath, Long Jingyun immediately said to them, "Since you've all agreed, then now you should all kill these sect disciples and aristocratic scions!"
The young masters and noblemen's eyes turned cold, and then, like tigers among sheep, they charged directly into the group of sect disciples and aristocratic scions not far from them.
The martial arts skills of these sect disciples and aristocratic scions were no match for them. When they attacked together, these people had little chance to resist. They could only let out some screams before they all fell into pools of blood, dead beyond any hope of survival.
Lu Yang was somewhat surprised to see this.
Unexpectedly, Long Jingyun was so ruthless. In order to silence these sect disciples and aristocratic scions, he actually ordered those young masters and noblemen to kill them outright.
He did not object at all; on the contrary, he felt that the other party's actions were indeed a permanent solution.
These sect disciples and aristocratic scions numbered twenty or thirty. Although their martial arts skills were not very high, they were still highly likely to easily leak the news of Cui Yonghe's murder.
Now that they are dead, that possibility is completely eliminated.
When Wang Xiaoman saw that Long Jingyun had those young masters and noblemen kill twenty or thirty sect disciples and aristocratic scions to silence them, she frowned slightly. However, she understood the other party's intention in doing so.
To prevent the truth of today's events from leaking out, she immediately gave a strict order to all the Wang family members behind her: "Listen up, all of you! You are not allowed to divulge a single word of what happened today. Pretend you've never met Cui Yonghe, understand?"
"Otherwise, we'll deal with you directly according to the Wang family rules, and your immediate family members will suffer as well!"
Upon hearing this, the Wang family members' expressions changed. They knew the seriousness of Wang Xiaoman's words; if they leaked it, their parents and other direct relatives would be truly implicated.
How could they possibly disregard the lives of their immediate family members and risk their lives by leaking such a thing?
Besides, Lu Yang had saved their lives, so they could never repay kindness with enmity!
They solemnly assured each other, "Sister Xiaoman, don't worry, we know nothing about what happened today, and we don't know any Cui Yonghe..."
Seeing that everyone in the Wang family looked very serious, Wang Xiaoman felt much more at ease.
Just then, Lu Yang's gaze suddenly turned to a spot about two or three hundred meters behind him, a mocking smile appearing on his lips. He said, "I say, you've been watching this show for so long, isn't it time you showed up?"
