When they heard Luo Liang's words.
The Lin family's higher-ups didn't say anything. Obviously, they all knew the law.
"That's why. The stone temple is my personal property. "
Luo Liang had a mocking look on his face.
"I'm willing to give you half of the benefits and let you be my henchmen to hunt down the Greedy Snake. It's reasonable!"
Standing on the high ground of the law, he mocked them mercilessly.
Charity?
Be his henchmen?
The Lin family's higher-ups couldn't hide the anger and shame in their hearts. Their faces were gloomy as they glared at him.
"Luo Liang!"
Lin Qingshu's expression was gloomy. The way he addressed him had already changed.
"In terms of the law, you're right. But in the galactic society, the winner is king. The unspoken rules are more important than the law. "
The law was just the rules of the game set by the upper echelons.
If the law was fair and effective, there wouldn't be so many disputes in the galaxy, and there wouldn't be so many grievances in the world.
Luo Liang agreed with Lin Qingshu's words.
However, what he really relied on was not the law. He also held the power of the heavens and had a bunch of trump cards in his hands.
"Hmph! If we announce the news of the stone temple to the outside world, Heavenly Cloud Manor will become the target of public criticism! "
Lin Qingshu sneered.
This was a very obvious threat.
Luo Liang knew that the Lin family wouldn't announce the news of the stone temple to the public. There was no benefit in doing so. Apart from offending Heavenly Cloud Manor, there was no benefit.
The smartest thing to do was to find someone powerful to cooperate with, such as Hydra's Greedy Snake and other giants.
To this.
Luo Liang had the corresponding preparations.
In two days at most, he would be able to obtain Zhao Lingling's Fourth Grade talisman and open the stone temple's opportunity. He would be invincible.
The stone temple was a fire pit.
If the Lin family announced the news, in two days, at most, some powerful Cerulean local superpowers would be attracted. It might not even be enough to fill the pit.
Even so, Luo Liang still had to warn the Lin family.
He only wanted to get rid of the hidden enemies in one fell swoop. He didn't want to provoke so many powerhouses for no reason.
"If the news about the stone temple is made public in the near future, I'm afraid that it will be too late. The Lin family of Tiandu City will be removed from Cerulean! "
Luo Liang's expression was calm, but his tone was cold.
This was the first time that Luo Liang had spoken a threat since the meeting between the two sides.
Hearing this, the Lin family felt an inexplicable chill.
However, after being slightly stunned, they all sneered.
"Luo Liang, you don't have to bluff."
Lin Zhenguang sneered.
The Lin family was a great family that had taken root in the Sky Capital. Even if the seven great families wanted to destroy them, it would not be that easy.
As for the extraterrestrial character behind Luo Liang, Greedy Snake had analyzed it and found that it wasn't particularly powerful.
It was extremely difficult for extraterrestrial characters to interfere and influence the major forces on their home planet.
"Once the news is made public, even the seven aristocratic families may not be able to withstand the pressure."
"The Lin family won't do that. It will do more harm than good. But because of your arrogance, you forced us to join Hydra and Greedy Snake. "
Lin Zhenguang sneered.
The Lin family had the advantage of information. As the local tyrant, they could find many powerful forces and giants to cooperate.
Lin Qingshu frowned slightly. The doubts in his heart still couldn't be solved.
Luo Liang's action of forcing them to join other powerful forces was obviously more harmful than beneficial for Tianyun Manor.
Wasn't it better to cooperate with the Lin family?
"Things have come to this, we have nothing to talk about."
Luo Liang stood up with a faint smile on his face.
Before leaving.
He warned again: "If the news is made public, there will be no Lin family in Cerulean."
Luo Liang said with a firm tone and walked out of the banquet hall.
The Lin family didn't send anyone to see him off.
Before. They were very polite to Luo Liang. They respected the extraterrestrial people behind him and the benefits of the stone temple.
Now that they had shed all pretense of cordiality, of course they wouldn't be nice.
"Why do I feel that Luo Liang's threats are full of confidence?"
Several senior members of the Lin family looked at each other. One of the elders muttered.
Luo Liang went to the banquet alone and showed inhuman courage. He seemed to be arrogant and played with the Lin family.
From the beginning to the end, he was indifferent and comfortable, as if he didn't care about the Lin family's choice at all.
What he said just now was the only threat.
"Do you think Luo Liang has something on the Lin family?"
Lin Zhenguang was a little uneasy.
The Lin family was a big local tyrant family in Tiandu City. In the process of their rise, they had engaged in many illegal activities.
Smuggling, evil forces, tax evasion and so on.
Lin Qingshu shook his head: "On this planet, and even in the interstellar, how many forces have risen without doing anything?"
The Lin family had done bad things, and the loopholes left behind were just obvious.
"As long as the strength is strong enough, the chain of interests involved is huge. Many forces that once had a bad reputation are still as good as before, and even won legends and good reputation."
"Yes, Tianyun Manor didn't show any strong background on the planet. It's very difficult for extraterrestrial forces to interfere with the situation on this planet. "
"You want to overthrow the planet's local families? You want the Lin family to be removed? What a joke! "
After discussion.
The senior members of the Lin family didn't believe Luo Liang's threats and didn't take them to heart.
Besides.
Unless it was a last resort, they wouldn't do such a stupid thing that would do no good.
"Qianqian, don't be fooled by Luo Liang's bravado. You see, he still left with his tail between his legs."
Blue-haired youth saw Lin Qianqian's beautiful eyes looking at Luo Liang's back with nostalgia.
He suppressed his jealousy and took the opportunity to belittle.
Lin Qianqian was originally a candidate for the Lin family's beauty trap. But Luo Liang's performance just now seemed to have won the favor and admiration of this beauty.
Through the attic window.
The Lin family watched Luo Liang walk to the door of the courtyard.
"Luo Liang, you're also eating here."
A man and a woman "just happened" to pass by the Tianzi No. 6 courtyard, showing a surprised look.
"Humph! Luo Liang is a student, what kind of people can he know? "
Blue-haired youth said disdainfully.
He was humiliated and defeated by Luo Liang, plus jealousy in his heart, in front of the woman he loved, he naturally attacked with all his strength.
"Hey! Those two people look a bit familiar. "
An elder of the Lin family was surprised.
The one who greeted Luo Liang was a man and a woman.
One of them was a capable man in his thirties or forties, with a superior aura.
The other beautiful woman was in her thirties, dignified and graceful, with a noble aura.
"Isn't that the top socialite of Tiandu, Lady Wei?"
Family Head Lin Zhenguang looked over and recognized at a glance.
As the nominal head of the Lin family, he has dealt with most of the influential people of Tiandu's upper class.
This Lady Wei was the object of their Lin family's flattery.
After all, Lady Wei's brother was the leader of Tiandu, naturally suppressing local tyrants like the Lin family.
When Lin Zhenguang's eyes fell on the capable man, his face suddenly changed.
"... Secretary Jones?!"
The Lin family's higher-ups were alarmed like birds in the forest, crowded to the window and looked over.
Secretary Jones was one of the most powerful people in Planet Sky Blue's political world.
Because Boss Locke behind him had a great chance to compete for the supreme throne of Cerulean politics.
At this moment.
Secretary Jones and Lady Wei seemed to inadvertently come over and greeted Luo Liang with a smile. They were very polite.
"Maybe it's just to give face to the extraterrestrial people behind Luo Liang."
Blue-haired youth was a bit stubborn, but he didn't admit defeat.
In fact, he knew that even the head of the Lin family couldn't enjoy this kind of treatment.
At the entrance of the Tianzi No. 6 courtyard.
The next scene shocked the Lin family and even gave birth to a trace of panic.
Secretary Jones smiled and took the initiative to shake hands with Luo Liang.
In the political world, it was understandable for people with high status to shake hands with people below.
But Secretary Jones's attitude was too enthusiastic. Not only did he not have a superior attitude, but he also had a humble attitude.
On the other hand, Luo Liang's attitude was mediocre. He hesitated a little before shaking hands with Secretary Jones.
Then.
Lady Wei smiled brightly, gentle and elegant. She slightly bowed and stepped forward to shake hands with Luo Liang.
In the social circle of the upper class.
Often, men were gentlemanly and took the initiative to salute women.
When a lady took the initiative, except for the person she liked, most of the time she was facing a man of high status.
Lady Wei's situation was obviously impossible for her to like Luo Liang, a student younger than her.
"Hello, Lady Wei."
After Jones's introduction, Luo Liang shook hands with Lady Wei and said hello.
Lady Wei was the Lady In Silver Skirt he met at the manor exhibition the other day.
Luo Liang had a good impression of her.
Not only because of Lady Wei's beautiful figure and dignified aura. As an influential person, Lady In Silver Skirt expressed concern about the student who was sitting on the ground at that time.
This kind of refined beauty and noble aura made Luo Liang remind her at that time.
Well?
When Luo Liang shook hands, Lady Wei leaned a little closer, and an elegant and pleasant fragrance came.
The other party's snow-white jade hand clung to his palm, rubbing a little, giving him a smooth and tender feeling.
That feeling seemed a little intimate, faintly teasing, but it was reasonable.
This was much more natural than Lan Yuehai's finger clasping him. He couldn't be sure whether the other party was intentional or not.
They let go of hands.
Lady Wei was still dignified and bright, smiling and praising Luo Liang, thanking him for his reminder last time.
At this moment.
In the No. 5 and No. 6 courtyard, many people were paying attention to the handshake and conversation between Luo Liang and Jones.
In the No. 5 courtyard, some political figures were envious.
Knowing Luo Liang's unfathomable background, these people naturally wanted to make friends with him.
Jones refused most of them because he didn't want to disturb the other party.
In the end.
Jones only agreed to take Lady Wei with him.
On the one hand, Lady Wei had dealt with Luo Liang before.
Moreover, Lady Wei represented the leader of the Tiandu City, such a big political figure, it was not easy to refuse.
As for the No. 6 courtyard.
In the attic.
The Lin family's senior officials were shocked and their scalps were numb.
Thinking of Luo Liang's confident threat before he left, they only felt a chill spread from the soles of their feet to their whole body.
They were experienced and knowledgeable, and it was a basic quality for them to observe people's expressions.
From the situation at the entrance of the courtyard.
Secretary Jones and Lady Wei took the initiative to make friends with Luo Liang. Their words were polite and showed goodwill.
"Even the young masters of the seven major Cerulean families can't enjoy this kind of treatment."
"Only the young masters of the Dayuan level have this kind of power in the political world."
Lin Zhenguang, Lin Qingshu and others' eyelids twitched. They couldn't help but take a deep breath, suppressing the stormy waves in their hearts.
Not to mention the level of a planet official.
Even the leader of the Tiandu City, if he was determined to deal with the Lin family. Even if the Lin family had a good background, it would be difficult for them to resist. Even if they didn't die, they would lose a layer of skin.
After all, the Lin family had many illegal loopholes.
Once there was the intervention of a planet official, the Lin family was afraid that it would really usher in a disaster.
Luo Liang's threat was not a bluff.
He really had this kind of ability!
For a moment.
The members of the Lin Clan were alarmed and their faces were extremely grave.
Blue-haired youth's face was ashen. His lips squirmed but he couldn't say a word.
Previously, he was ruthlessly killed by Luo Liang. He was humiliated and burned with jealousy.
At this moment, when Luo Liang showed that he had the power to destroy the entire Lin family, Blue-haired youth felt as if he had fallen into an ice lake. The jealousy and resentment in his heart were all extinguished.
"Don't panic, the situation hasn't reached the point of no return."
Lin Qingshu was the first to calm down.
Although the waves in his heart had not calmed down, he had an incomparable fear of Luo Liang.
"The current situation shows that the extraterrestrial big shot behind Luo Liang is stronger than Greedy Snake expected. It may affect the decisions of the top leaders of Cerulean."
Lin Qingshu analyzed.
"But Luo Liang's threat only refers to the situation where we made the news of the stone temple public."
"It can be seen that the extraterrestrial big shot may be able to affect the top leaders of Cerulean, but they also have to pay a price and won't be used easily."
"Yes, the planet's big shot, the governor of the border, has extraordinary political significance. In the whole of Maple Leaf, there are few who can easily affect them. "
Several elders nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Liang may have this trump card in his hands.
But as long as the Lin family doesn't fall out and do something extreme, such as making the news of the stone temple public, the other party is unwilling to use political resources that can affect the planet's big shot. Because the price is too high!
"Second brother, what do we do now?"
Blue-haired youth asked.
"Whether or not we can cooperate, quickly invite Luo Liang back and ease the relationship. When he left just now, we were a little left out. "
Lin Qingshu said coldly.
"Okay, leave this matter to me."
Lin Zhenguang didn't hesitate. As the head of the family, it was more sincere for him to invite.
"And you, fourth brother!"
Lin Qingshu's eyes locked on Blue-haired youth.
"You took the initiative to attack Luo Liang. Later, you will have to bring a bramble and ask for punishment."
"Bring a bramble and ask for punishment?"
Blue-haired youth's face fell. His heart was full of grievances and shame.
His arm was broken by Luo Liang. The injury had just been bandaged and fixed, and he would have to go to the hospital later.
In the end, he, a seriously injured person, had to go and ask for punishment from the culprit?
"Not good! Luo Liang is gone. "
The head of the family, Lin Zhenguang, went downstairs to the courtyard. There was no one at the door.
Everyone was shocked. How could it be so fast?
They naturally didn't know.
Luo Liang wasn't interested in chatting with Jones and Lin Qingshu. After greeting them, he said a few words and left directly.
Agarwood Residence was surrounded by winding roads and lush forests.
In just a moment, Luo Liang disappeared from their sight.
The Lin family's hearts sank.
Because of their slow reaction, they may not even have the chance to ease the relationship and apologize.
