"William, rest assured, Uncle Wang will safely rescue you. All those who insult knights and the dignity of knights will be punished." The Dragon Knight turned and leaped onto the giant dragon behind him, wielding a seven-meter-long dragon spear and charging towards Lin Zhan.
"Rescue me? Alas, Uncle Wang! Aren't you just increasing China's foreign exchange reserves? Brother Lin, please name your price. We in the British royal family have plenty of money." William was also very aggrieved. A small ransom could have resolved this, but now a large one was being delivered.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Zhen and Lin Shanhe immediately ran to Lin Hai's side and said, "Second Uncle, you must leave some alive. I plan to fund a new legion with the spoils from this big treasure."
"Yes, Second Grandfather. If this deal goes through, it will be enough for my son's dowry! Let's just butcher that big lizard. A peak Lord-level dragon is worth a lot, consider it interest. As for this mascot, we must keep it alive." Lin Zhan chimed in, cooperating with his two fathers.
The other several prospective Kings of China looked enviously at Lin Zhan's family. The most valuable hostage in the history of kidnapping was about to fall into the hands of the Lin family.
Lin Hai chuckled and said, "Don't worry, grandson. If the deal is successful, your third grandfather and I will leave it for you to marry."
"Overlord Blade!" With a shout, a fierce and domineering aura filled the heavens and earth. A phantom of a heaven-reaching battle saber appeared behind Lin Hai. With a wave of his hand, a massive saber shadow slashed towards the Dragon Knight.
The Dragon Knight's mind was disturbed by the domineering aura, and for a moment, he was unable to resist at all. The Overlord Blade struck, severely wounding the Dragon Knight and leaving him unconscious. The dragon beneath him was split in half by the saber and died on the spot.
"The Lin family's Overlord Blade always instills a sense of dread, making one unable to muster any will to resist," Sangmuha Shishi said to Leonid Ivanov beside him.
"Indeed. If your mind is captivated by the Overlord Blade, you can only watch yourself be slain with no means to resist. This is the terror of the Overlord Blade. Back then, Lin Tian, before even becoming a prospective King, could single-handedly slay twelve Lords from various races with one saber. The Lin family is truly formidable." Leonid Ivanov, as an old comrade-in-arms of the Lin family, understood this even better.
Looking at the falling dragon, Lin Zhan waved his hand, leading the members of the China team forward. "Charge, brothers! This is all money! Don't leave a single drop of blood or a piece of flesh behind. We must also get some benefits for the brothers staying at home!"
"Damn, Old Lin is always so thoughtful. Now that our three families are merged, there are over thirty mouths to feed." Ying Xuan also shouted loudly, rallying the crowd.
Little Taoist Zhang Haoming, with his childish voice, waved his small arms and said, "Several senior brothers, the senior brother is useless now, listen to me. Follow Brother Lin and there will be meat to eat. Everyone charge!" With that, he also charged forward on his short legs.
Lin Zhan summoned his three spirit pets, Little Gold, Little Black, and Little Treasure. "You three go up and eat as much as you can. This dragon is a peak Lord-level, very nutritious. Little Treasure, didn't you say you were an iron-eating beast? Dig out the crystal core from the dragon's head for me!"
Not enthusiastic about eating meat means a problem with your brain. Leng Shan also followed suit, quickly releasing two little dragon mastiffs to eat meat.
Lin Zhan flicked out the Dragon Taming Rope of Imperial Dragon Transformation, binding the Dragon Knight tightly. "Little brat, daring to show off against me after just becoming a prospective King? You're stunned now, aren't you?"
Everyone who heard Lin Zhan's words was speechless. Kid, what is your level? If it weren't for your two awe-inspiring grandfathers here, a prospective King's fart could blow you to death.
Andre Ivanov and Victor Ivanov, the two brothers, looked at their old ancestor Leonid and said, "Old Ancestor, we now understand where we lost. We didn't lose unfairly."
Leonid looked at his two grandsons with great satisfaction. "You can be taught, indeed. Tell me, why did you lose?"
Andre said with tears flowing, "Old Ancestor, your grandsons are normal people. Comparing us to that perverted monster Lin Zhan, your grandsons cannot do it."
Victor cried, "Yes, Old Ancestor. How can a Bronze fight a Gold, and a Gold start fighting a prospective King? This is not human behavior!"
"Alas, it's not your fault. You two are good grandsons." Leonid sighed. They were both grandsons, but his grandsons were not as good as others'.
Lin Zhan excitedly trotted over, carrying the Dragon Knight. "Second Grandfather, Third Grandfather, take him! You two quickly seal his cultivation. I have to return this Dragon Taming Rope to my wife. This was given to my wife by the old ancestor of Imperial Dragon Transformation."
Lin Zhan handed the Dragon Knight to Lin Shan, then turned to Andre and Victor. "Why are you two crying? If you can't handle it, come to China and join me. Or in a couple of years, I'll set up a branch there."
"Old Lin, Old Lin, Boss, everything is cleaned up. Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang scraped off a layer of the ground, saying they want to keep it for planting vegetables." After cleaning up the dragon's corpse, everyone returned and reported to Lin Zhan.
"Little Treasure, you really weren't bragging. You actually opened up the dragon's head!" Lin Zhan said, looking at the dragon's head with its skull pried open.
The prospective Kings curiously looked forward. "Holy cow, these kids are too ruthless! They didn't just scrape off a layer of ground; they dug out a pit!"
Lin Zhan turned to William and said, "William, rest assured, I will guarantee your safety. But I have to double your ransom as a meal fee. Do you have any objections?"
"Brother, what are you talking about? Are we strangers? Double it, we must double it. Otherwise, you're looking down on your brother." William said cheerfully. He had no choice; otherwise, that beast Old Lin Hei might do something else.
"Oh, you're smart, brother. You've grown fast." Lin Zhan patted William's shoulder with great satisfaction.
"Sangmuha Shishi, I can give you a better price. I'll take two high-level Lord-level crystal cores to cure the three idiot Buddhist disciples, but you have to help me contact the British royal family, explain the situation to them, and have someone influential and intelligent come to negotiate." Lin Zhan said to Sangmuha.
"Young Benefactor Lin, I am duty-bound to help with this matter, but the treatment fee is still a bit high. Can you reduce it further?" Sangmuha said to Lin Zhan with a smile.
Seeing Sangmuha's smiling face, Lin Zhan's mind was filled with a herd of virtual horses: Damn this stingy monk for being ungrateful. I must teach him a lesson.
Then, Lin Zhan also said to Sangmuha with a beaming smile, "Then, Master Sangmuha, how much are you willing to pay? Name your price, and I absolutely won't haggle."
Those who knew Lin Zhan, seeing his smiling face, also began to laugh happily: This stupid monk is going to be in trouble. Old Lin Hei is going to trap him again. Daring to haggle with Old Lin Hei is like a mouse volunteering to accompany a cat; you're risking your life for money.
