Chapter 1311: Chapter 1310: Scared Silly Inside the private room, everyone seemed extremely excited. However, amidst their excitement, the Jewelry King, Master Salong, and He Xiaohai felt that the voice sounded somewhat familiar. All three of them were taken aback. Haven’t they never met ’Master Lin’? Why did they find ’Master Lin’s’ voice familiar? At that moment, Xiao Ya and the others quickly said, "I’ll go open the door, everyone get ready to welcome ’Master Lin’." "Mmm." Soon, Xiao Ya went to open the door. After she opened the door, Xiao Ya quickly bowed her head. "Xiao Ya has seen ’Master Lin’!" All other people inside the private room also bowed and spoke towards the door: "The Jewelry King has seen ’Master Lin’!" "Salong has seen ’Master Lin’!" "Wu Ming has seen ’Master Lin’!" ... "He Sihai along with his son He Xiaohai, has seen ’Master Lin’!" "..." All of them bowed their heads, and none dared to look up at ’Master Lin’ right away. Lin Dong frowned slightly and said, "What is this, I’m not an emperor. It’s like treating me as if an emperor has arrived." Lin Dong didn’t like this set, and he directly expressed it. At this time, everyone also quickly looked up. Upon looking up, they clearly saw ’Master Lin’s’ face! As Wu Ming, He Sihai, and others had previously seen Lin Dong, their expressions were not surprising. However, the Jewelry King, Master Salong, and He Xiaohai were completely dumbfounded. They were utterly shocked! He Xiaohai was so frightened that he began screaming. "Ah... Ah... How is it you?!!" Upon hearing his son’s screams, He Sihai immediately frowned and scolded, "Xiaohai, who allowed you to speak!" Frightened out of his wit, He Xiaohai quickly shut his mouth, trembling violently. He never imagined that this friend of Gu Lingfei, who he had mocked at the Jewelry Exhibition Dinner, would be ’Master Lin’! He remembered that Gu Lingfei and Tang Han had advised him to be polite to him, yet he didn’t listen at all. Back then, Gu Lingfei and Tang Han told him that if he wasn’t polite to this person, his dad would beat him up. Previously, He Xiaohai thought Gu Lingfei and Tang Han were out of their minds to say such a thing. Now, it seems that the one out of his mind was himself! Mom, I actually offended ’Master Lin’! At this moment, He Sihai also perceived something was off, and he quickly asked: "Xiaohai, do you know ’Master Lin’?" "I, I..." He Xiaohai was about to cry, quickly recounting what happened at the Jewelry Banquet earlier. After listening, He Sihai became furious, "You unfilial son, how dare you be rude to ’Master Lin’!" "I’ll beat you to death!" He Xiaohai was indeed beaten by his dad, He Sihai. He Sihai showed no mercy, delivering a violent beating. His beating left him with a swollen face and a bruised nose. Lin Dong watched this scene and shook his head, saying, "He Sihai, that’s enough. Your kid isn’t smart to begin with, don’t end up beating him silly." "Yes, yes, yes!" He Sihai quickly stopped, then glared at He Xiaohai and said, "You unfilial son, aren’t you kneeling down to apologize to ’Master Lin’?" Without another word, He Xiaohai hurriedly moved towards Lin Dong and with a ’thud’, he was about to kneel and apologize. Lin Dong gently flicked his sleeve, and an invisible wave of air held him up. At the same time, Lin Dong scoffed and said, "A man’s knees are precious, don’t kneel easily before others!" He Xiaohai was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded vigorously. "Yes, Master Lin!" "Master Lin, I was wrong about what happened before." Lin Dong shook his head lightly, not holding it against him. It was just a little kid, after all, who had already been scolded by his father; if Lin Dong had pursued the matter further, he would have seemed uncompassionate. With a "thud," a loud kneeling noise suddenly rang out at that moment. "Lin... Master Lin! Previously, I was blind-sighted and did not know you were Master Lin, I beg for your forgiveness, please forgive me!" The person who knelt was none other than the Jewelry King, Dong Tiancheng. Another "thud" followed, as yet another kneeling sound was heard. That was indeed the Master Salong, who was beside the Jewelry King, Dong Tiancheng. Master Salong too knelt before Lin Dong, performing the highest ritual known to their order. "Amen, I have actually offended a god. Here and now, Salong begs for divine forgiveness!" Seeing the actions of Jewelry King Dong Tiancheng and Master Salong, Xiao Ya, Wu Ming, He Sihai, and the others were all completely dumbfounded. Unable to resist, He Sihai asked, "Boss Dong, Master Salong, what have you done?" "Have you, like my son, also offended Master Lin?" Jewelry King Dong Tiancheng nodded, his face grim as he said, "Did you not see that Master Salong had injuries when he came in earlier?" "You even asked what happened to him, and I mentioned he fell." "Actually, he wasn’t hurt from a fall, but from being struck by Master Lin." "Of course, at that time, we had no idea he was Master Lin. If we had known, even if we had a hundred times the courage, we wouldn’t have dared to do what we did!" Jewelry King Dong Tiancheng then recounted everything that had occurred before the start of the Jewelry Exhibition Dinner, involving Lin Dong, Gu Lingfei, and Tang Han. After listening to his story, Xiao Ya couldn’t help but angrily say: "Dong Tiancheng, you have a lot of nerve, to actually think of forcibly buying Master Lin’s things! Are you seeking death?" Dong Tiancheng lay prostrate on the ground, trembling fiercely. Master Salong was even preparing to kill himself. "I have offended a god, and if the god does not wish to forgive me, I am willing to die as atonement!" Seeing this, Dong Tiancheng hastily pleaded, "Master Lin, spare our lives, please spare Master Salong and me." "We truly did not know you were Master Lin; we were simply desperate for that ’Spiritual Device’, and thus we acted against your companion." Lin Dong said indifferently: "Sparing your lives is possible!" "However, while the capital punishment can be avoided, lesser punishments cannot!" "Previously, whichever hand Master Azan used to strike my friend, cut off that hand!" Hearing this, Master Salong was overjoyed and without any hesitation, he gathered a blade made of energy in his left hand. He then heavily sliced his right hand. "Puff!!" The right hand was directly chopped off and fell to the ground. In order not to dirty the private room and disturb Master Lin’s mood, he quickly sealed the bleeding veins. At the same time, he said, "Master Lin, the arm has been chopped! Thank you for your forgiveness, Master Lin!" Whoosh! Seeing this scene, even He Xiaohai was dumbstruck! This... this was too terrifying. Fortunately, he had only been verbally imprudent a few moments ago and hadn’t physically provoked Master Lin. Otherwise, his fate might have been like that of Master Salong.
