Chapter 764

Chapter 764 The Real Deal They just helped the fake Emerentius criticize the real Emerentius. What a ridiculous situation!

The wealthy merchants who went to fetch the money had returned around this time, only to see that the supposed Emerentius was actually kneeling in front of a young man.

They were instantly dumbfounded.

What’s going on?

When they asked people around, they finally understood that such a shocking reversal had occurred in the short time they were away.

They almost fell for the deception!

Fortunately, the real Emerentius appeared.

Simultaneously, these wealthy merchants looked at the painting “Eagle on a Tree” that Emrys had drawn.

Their gazes turned fervent.

This was the real deal!

They were about to speak when Emrys raised his hand. With a shake, “Eagle on a Tree” instantly turned into debris.

“This…”

Everyone’s gaze froze.

A painting worth hundreds of millions was just destroyed like that?

Indeed, Emerentius was quite whimsical.

The onlookers were in extreme pain, as if the hundreds of thousands or even millions shattered by Emrys were their own.

Emrys, on the other hand, showed no signs of remorse. He turned his head and looked at the crew–cut man with a playful smile on his face. “One must always honor a bet. I’m ready for you to kneel and apologize!”

The crew–cut man had yet to recover from the shock he had just experienced.

He had a blank expression on his face.

minutes but also This young man not only drew “Eagle on a Tree” in less than two shattered it afterward. Clearly, he didn’t want them to profit from it.

“D*mn it! I don’t care if you’re the high and mighty Emerentius. How dare you mess with our livelihood?

I’ll make sure you leave lying on your back today!”

After coming back to his senses, the crew–cut man showed no remorse. Instead, he glared at Emrys with a fierce look.

This team was not a group of calligraphy and painting enthusiasts, nor were they fans of Emerentius.

They were simply a fraud syndicate.

They found the unkempt man because he held value that could be exploited for their benefit.

Now, someone had stepped forward to jeopardize their livelihood. Regardless of whether he was Emerentius or not, they just needed to deal with him.

Not only did the crew–cut man fail to uphold the bet, refusing to kneel and apologize to Emrys, but he also showed a fierce expression, clearly indicating that he had no intention of letting Emrys leave unscathed.

With these threatening words, seven or eight strong men from behind the man walked out almost simultaneously.

Each had a sinister expression.

Cutting off someone’s source of income was akin to murdering their parents. Now that their financial lifeline had been severed by Emrys, it was as if their entire family had been wiped out by him.

How could they let him off so easily?

Although the surrounding crowd now knew that the young man in front of them was their idol, Emerentius, seeing the formidable team on the side of the crew–cut man made them instantly intimidated.

There were a few wealthy merchants who had bodyguards with them. They saw this as an opportunity to get closer to Emerentius, so they sent their bodyguards out, intending to protect Emerentius.

However, when the bodyguards intervened, they realized that the opponents were all skilled martial arts practitioners, each proficient in boxing.

Upon reflection, it made sense. Without some real skills, how could they have dared to scam so blatantly?

This included the crew–cut man, who somehow learned kickboxing from somewhere. In three moves, he knocked down a bodyguard of a wealthy merchant, displaying extremely ruthless moves.

“Stop!”

At this moment, the unkempt man kneeling on the ground suddenly raised his head and roared, his eyes red. His cheeks were still wet with tears.

However, as soon as he spoke, the crew–cut man kicked him on the shoulder, sneering coldly, “It’s one thing to put on airs, but you really think you’re something, don’t you? If you don’t want to die, you’d better keep your mouth shut!”
