Chapter 989 - Taking Away Their Cultivation

"W-What are you guys talking about? Please tell me that you"re all joking!" Yu Yong spoke in a trembling voice after the investors for the Yu Family agreed to stop supporting them.

"Even if you meet Player Yuan, there"s no guarantee that he will work with you! In fact, I am willing to bet all of my money that he won"t!"

"That is a risk I am willing to take." David Swanson said in a calm manner.

Although he didn"t mention it, he was actually afraid of offending Yu Tian any more due to his relations.h.i.+p with Yuan.

If they continue to offend Yu Tian, there is a good chance that they will offend Yuan as well, and based on the rumors around Yuan, he is not someone they want to offend even if they have to cut all ties with the Yu Family.

Furthermore, ever since Yu Tian stopped playing music for them, their profit had drastically decreased. The Yu Family in its current state wasn"t worth investing in, and these investors were already thinking about severing ties with the Yu Family.

If Yu Rou"s birthday was even a week later, these investors would have stopped their support for the Yu Family on their own accord.

"Now that you"ve lost all of your major supports, what are you going to do, "Mother"? "Father"?" Yuan looked at them with contempt, his gaze so cold that it made the two feel as though they had been tossed into the abyss.

"Y-You won"t get away with this! All of you will regret this!" Tang Lee spoke with gritted teeth.

"Let"s go! We"re leaving!" Yu Yong stood up.

"Where do you think you"re going?" Yuan"s eyes turned golden again.

And he continued in a cold voice, "You"re done here when I say you"re down. Now, sit back down."

An immense pressure suddenly fell on Yu Yong and Tang Lee, causing them to fall into their seats.

"Don"t forget, you still owe me money. I will let you keep 50 billion since that"s how much Miss Meifeng needs to buy out of her contract, but everything else is mine."

"Hahaha! As if we"d give you any money!" Tang Lee laughed in a crazed manner.

Yuan released a deep sigh.

"I didn"t want to resort to this, but…"

He turned to look at Meixiu and spoke, "Can you make me some tea?"

The request was very sudden and unexpected, but Meixiu instantly understood what he was trying to do.

"Sure. Mother, can you help me? It"s been a while, so I forgot how to make tea." Meixiu grabbed her hand and pulled her along to make tea.

"M-Meixiu?! What is going on?!" Meifeng asked her once they left.

"Who knows." She shrugged.

Meanwhile, inside the room, Yuan turned to look at the investors and said, "I no longer have any need for you all. Go to the Cultivators" a.s.sociation and wait for me there. You"ll meet Player Yuan by the end of the day."

The investors were still doubtful of him, but they had no choice. They were clearly up against a monster— one the Yu Family had created.

"Oh, right, before you all leave, I have one more question… What about the contract?"

"What contract are you talking about?" David Swanson asked with raised eyebrows.

"The one I signed with the Yu Family."

The investors looked at each other and laughed, "We don"t know what you"re talking about! Such a contract doesn"t exist!"

Yuan smiled after hearing their words and nodded, "Then I"ll see you all later."

Naturally, the contract existed, but the investors there knew what Yuan was trying to do, so they had no choice but to forget about the contract.

Once all of the people in the room except for Yu Yong and Tang Lee left, Yuan focused his attention on them.

"What do you think I should do with the two of you?" He asked as he slowly approached them.

Yu Yong and Tang Lee wanted to run, but they were unable to move their bodies, almost as though they were chained to the chair.

"So the both of you have managed to reach the first level Spirit Warrior. You must have worked hard to acquire such a profound cultivation. It would be a shame if you were to lose it all at once…" Yuan narrowed his eyes at them with a vicious gaze.

"Y-You wouldn"t dare!" Yu Yong shouted.

"Do you really still think that I am the same person as before? If that"s the case, allow me to open your eyes!"

"No! Stop! Help me! Somebody!" Yu Yong roared when he saw Yuan"s motions.

Yuan ignored Yu Yong"s cry for help and struck him in the chest with his palm.

"Gah!" Yu Yong coughed out a mouthful of blood, and he could feel his cultivation being destroyed.

"N-N-No! NO! NO! NO! NO! HOW DARE YOU! MY CULTIVATION!"

It took a moment for reality to sink in, but when it did, Yu Yong"s face twisted in anger.

He"d spent many hours and tons of money to improve his cultivation, and for it to all disappear in an instant, it tortured his mind and heart.

"Soon, you will also know what it feels like to lose everything. I took your power first, then it will be your wealth, and lastly, I will take your entire family from you, just like what you did to me."

Yuan turned to look at the terrified Tang Lee next.

"Ple-Please! Wait! Spare me! I was wrong! Don"t hurt me! I will do anything you want! I can destroy Meifeng"s contract and hand her over to you! Please! I am still your mother!"

However, Yuan"s face turned even colder after hearing her words.

"You dare call yourself my mother after everything you have done?!"

The pressure in the room increased.

"Don"t you ever dare call yourself my mother again!" Yuan shouted as he thrusted his palm into her chest, destroying her Dantian.

"NO!!!"

Tang Lee could feel all of the spiritual energy in her body dissipate in the following moments.

Yuan took a deep breath to calm himself down after destroying Yu Yong and Tang Lee"s cultivation.
