Chapter 460: What a Pity
It happened so fast that before Li Yunyang could stop it, the young man was killed by the skinny businessman. The young man's words did not make Li Yunyang angry, but he admired the young man a little.
At a time when everyone was betraying their dead family members for profit, using them as bargaining chips to seek benefits from Li Yunyang, the young man stood up and denounced their dirty behavior, which was really commendable.
Even if the young man's words were to obstruct what Li Yunyang did, but seeing that there was such a nobleman who dared to speak the truth in his territory, Li Yunyang was very happy, and even had the intention of cultivating him.
It's a pity that before Li Yunyang could express his appreciation for him, he was killed. It was really that the businessman's figure was too thin, and standing behind the young man, it was completely covered, so that Li Yunyang couldn't see his movements.
Moreover, that thin businessman, after killing the young man, actually put on an appearance of helping Li Yunyang to ask him for a reward, which is simply self-defeating!
Li Yunyang laughed, laughing loudly, but the laughter was full of chills, he has never been a good person, but he will never allow others to do evil in his name!
The thin businessman thought that Li Yunyang didn't know that he had an antagonistic relationship with the young man's family. Seeing that the young man scolded Li Yunyang this time, the thin businessman thought that the young man would definitely be severely punished by Li Yunyang.
However, the thin businessman expected that Li Yunyang was a first-time lord after all, and it was unlikely that he would directly kill people in the aristocratic circle, and most of them would teach him a lesson, so forget it.
And the thin businessman, in order to achieve his goal, actually ruthlessly ended up with a dagger and killed the young man, and even invited Li Yunyang to take credit, wanting to put the murderous hat on his head.
The thin businessman felt that Li Yunyang was young after all, and the city government was not deep, and judging from the future policy of the town announced today, most of them were benevolent lords, and to put it mildly, they were rotten and good people. Even if he killed that young man, even if Li Yunyang knew his thoughts, he would not do anything to him.
But now Li Yunyang suddenly laughed, and the chill in the laughter was oozing, which made the thin businessman a little worried, but he still thought that this might be Li Yunyang's bluff.
After all, how could a little white face who relied on women to take the throne dare to kill people casually in his territory, he would definitely be afraid of arousing public anger and not ending well.
Thinking like this, the thin businessman was no longer afraid of Li Yunyang's laughter, but he didn't speak, just lowered his head, pretended to be respectful on his face, and waited for his answer.
Li Yunyang looked at this thin businessman with interest, he really couldn't imagine how Sjerdeken had governed the town of Pavas in the past.
The upper-class people in these territories are actually a group of profit-seeking and flattering villains, and they are all so bold that they even dare not take Li Yunyang in their eyes, they are waiting for him to deal with the thin businessmen, and then decide whether to attack the enemies of their respective families.
"Good! good! very good!"
Li Yunyang laughed for a while, and said three good words in a row, but his voice became colder and colder, he looked at the thin businessman with a pale face, nodded lightly and said: "Indeed, you killed a nobleman who dared to tell the truth, I should reward you!"
Li Yunyang specially bit the word nobleman very hard, you must know that in the Xingyao Empire, there is an abyssal gap between commoners and nobles, even the richest businessmen in the empire have to bend down and salute when they meet with a small nobleman.
Even over the years, more and more businessmen have gone to the imperial capital to donate a noble title without a territory, making the name of the nobleman less valuable.
But the young man was a third-generation nobleman in the town of Parvas, and according to the law, if he killed someone, he could be exonerated by paying between 10,000 and 100,000 gold coins. But if he is killed, the murderer will be punished by the Nine Clans!
Because the aristocracy represents the power class of the empire and belongs to the sacrosanct party, if anyone dares to murder the nobles, it is a challenge to the power class of the entire empire!
Although the thin merchant thought of this at that time, because of the special situation they were in at this time, he decided that Li Yunyang would definitely not allow different voices if he wanted to cover up the matter of the infernal creatures attacking Parvas.
For the sake of the family's development, the thin merchant immediately planned to give it a go, as long as the bet was won, their family would definitely be able to become the richest merchant family in the town of Pavas in the future.
However, what the thin businessman never expected was that Li Yunyang's thoughts were different from those greedy and pedantic aristocrats, and he had a certain bottom line no matter how he was a person or what he did.
Therefore, the thin businessman gambled on this game, but even the lives of his entire family were lost, he was frightened into a cold sweat, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Li Yunyang and begged for mercy: "Lord Lord, I really saw that he was infected with passive hell creatures, and for the sake of your safety, I killed him!"
Although the thin businessman was afraid, he was not stupid, he knew that he couldn't admit that he murdered the young man just now for profit, but he said that in order to protect Li Yunyang's safety, he would kill the killer.
Even now, the thin businessman was still full of lies and quibbled in front of him, which made the smile on Li Yunyang's face even greater, and he sneered and said, "Oh, for my safety? Then I really have to thank you." ”
"Don't dare, doing things for adults is a blessing in the future. The thin businessman made it clear that he wanted to drag Li Yunyang into the water, as long as he insisted that he killed people for Li Yunyang, he might be able to escape with his life.
After all, judging from his statement, it seems that he is still in charge, and if Li Yunyang kills him, he will have a reputation of being loyal and treacherous.
Ordinary big people cherish their feathers very much, and the thin businessman thinks that Li Yunyang is the same, he will definitely not do anything that may damage his reputation for the sake of a young nobleman he has never known.
The thin businessman knew that although his approach was shameless and likely to anger Li Yunyang, he also had a chance to live, which was better than doing nothing.
More than a hundred nobles and merchants in the backyard were waiting for Li Yunyang's decision, and once he was the slightest bit soft on the skinny merchants, the daggers hidden in their sleeves would stab into the chests of the family's enemies.
Anyway, someone has already taken the lead in doing this, and if there are a few more, they will not lose their lives because of this, and the law does not blame the public, this is the case.
Li Yunyang looked at these nobles and businessmen, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the seemingly rich town of Parvas was actually a place to hide filth and dirt, and most of the entire upper class were such despicable and shameless guys.
It's just that although Li Yunyang is sighing in his heart, he still has a smile on his face, the kind of smile that is full of coldness and makes people daunting, he looked at the thin businessman kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "Is it a blessing? Since it is a blessing to do things for me, then it is not a great honor to die for me!"
"Huh!"
Before the words fell, Li Yunyang pulled out the long sword on his waist and cut off the head of the thin businessman with a sword, so that he didn't even have a chance to react, and a smooth head without a few hairs on his head fell from his neck.
The knife fell in his hand, and under the head, everyone didn't see how Li Yunyang made a move, but they were all puzzled, why Li Yunyang didn't even deny it, and directly killed the thin businessman.
You must know that if this matter spreads, it will definitely affect Li Yunyang's reputation, even if he is avenging the nobleman who died in vain, but the businessman he killed is under the banner of doing things for Li Yunyang.
When the matter spreads, Li Yunyang will inevitably fall into the notoriety of being a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey!
The nobles and businessmen who were still hesitating whether to make a move, they were all puzzled, how could Li Yunyang dare to kill the merchant directly.
Isn't he afraid that someone will be dissatisfied with him because of this, and then spread the news of the attack on the small town of Parvas, by the creatures of hell?
Anyway, whether Pavas will be rich or barren in the future will not affect the lives of these nobles and merchants, and it is a big deal that they will contribute a sum of money to live in other territories.
But Li Yunyang is the lord of Pavas Town, if there are any bad changes in his territory, then he will definitely be affected the most, and he will suffer the most losses.
The nobles and businessmen couldn't figure out why Li Yunyang dared to do this? Wasn't he afraid of offending the nobles and wealthy merchants in the town?
"It's a shame that a loyal citizen was infected by a creature of hell and forced me to kill him, damn creature of hell, if given the chance, I would make them pay an unbearable price!"
Just when everyone was wondering where Li Yunyang's confidence to kill that businessman came from, Li Yunyang pretended to be sad and sighed and said: "In order to prevent the tragedy from happening, you had better take a good look at any of you if any of you are stained with blood, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties caused by the creatures of hell again." ”
Everyone was stupid, what was Li Yunyang playing? If there was no problem with their comprehension ability, Li Yunyang's words were clearly encouraging them to fight each other and do something to the people of their enemy family!
Could it be that Li Yunyang just killed the skinny businessman because of his own anger, and he didn't really want to clean up the upper family in Pavas Town?
"Die, you goddamn hellish creature!"
The nobles and merchants hesitated for a while, and finally someone couldn't help it, and a nobleman with a full face of flesh roared with a short sword and stabbed a merchant's child.
Seeing the short sword attacking, the merchant's child was so frightened that his legs were weak, but his father was not around, and he couldn't shout for help if he wanted to.
Seeing that the nobleman's sword was about to reach his chest, the merchant's child closed his eyes in tears.
But after waiting for a long time, the merchant's child, finding that he was still alive, opened his eyes cautiously, and saw only that the nobleman who had just killed him was lying in front of him in a different place at this moment.
Li Yunyang withdrew the flying sword and snorted coldly: "Oh, what a pity, another loyal nobleman has been infected by a damn hell creature, which has caused Parvas to suffer another loss from Yan Zòng. ”
