Chapter 86.1
Editor: Jodi
However, this was indeed the case.
Because immediately afterwards, he received notifications on his light brain that he had been blacklisted from the Gu Conglomerate’s Stone Gambling House, the Gu Conglomerate’s Auction Houses, as well as other places!
Yu Jun was instantly stunned on the spot, as if he’d fallen into an ice cave.
What should he do?! What should he do?!
The Gu Conglomerate really wanted to blacklist them just because of something he said!
How could a small aristocratic family like theirs possibly fight against a giant like the Gu Conglomerate?
The other side could easily crush him with a flick of a finger.
For the first time, he felt the terror that came with messing with Bai Jing.
This teenager from the slums didn’t need to do anything at all—countless people were already there to protect him.
Why did he provoke someone like this?!
He held his head, clutching his hair tightly as regret flooded his heart like a tidal wave.
Then raising his hand, he slapped himself hard across the face.
The extreme pain brought a brief moment of clarity.
Then he issued an apology statement hurriedly at the fastest possible speed.
[Stone Gambler Yu Jun: I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have insulted God Yun. Your background means nothing. I’m the trash, I’m the useless waste!]
His hands trembled as he sent three of these messages in a row, hoping Young Master Gu would spare the Yu family’s life on account of his sincere attitude.
At this moment, he wished he could kneel down in front of Bai Jing!
Everyone in the comment section was dumbfounded.
Was this really the same Yu Jun who always acted high and mighty, looking down on everyone else because of his aristocratic status?
[What’s going on, did Yu Jun’s account get hacked??]
[Whoa, Yu Jun actually apologized?!]
[Insulting God Yun, my fists are clenched.]
[Tsk, this is the first time I’ve seen someone calling themselves trash.]
[As a fan of God Yun, I feel oddly satisfied for some reason.]
Not only Yu Jun, many of the previously stubborn racists also bowed their so-called ‘noble’ heads and apologized sincerely, shocking the masses.
These anonymous, foul-mouthed aristocratic young masters had all received the same warning, no, not a warning— a notification.
A notification of the unilateral termination of cooperation, with no room for negotiation!
And it wasn’t just the Gu Conglomerate that did this.
The Du and the Lei families, two of the Empire’s four major families, also took action. They owed Bai Jing a debt of gratitude.
Bai Jing had saved Du Xingyu from the mouth of an alien beast and had freed the head of the Lei family from Yan Ji’s control, something which was practically a life-saving favor.
They had been worried about how to repay such a huge debt, so now that someone had delivered themselves right at their doorstep, they were more than happy to oblige.
So once again, everyone witnessed the terrifying influence Bai Jing wielded. Among the five major families of the Empire, the Yuan family had already been removed, which meant that it was left with only four.
And three out of the four supported Bai Jing!
As for the Tang family, they simply chose not to get involved.
No one else could command such overwhelming popularity and support. Bai Jing was the only one.
From that point on, the mocking comments about his background disappeared immediately. No one dared to provoke these powerful figures anymore.
They all understood one thing— never, ever mess with Bai Jing!
As for those aristocratic young masters who had spoken out recklessly, they were sent, forcefully, by their families to experience life in the slums for a month under the Gu Group’s orders.
There were no light brains, no starcoins, no entertainment facilities, and no contact with the outside world.
So they really found themselves in a situation where even crying out to the heavens didn’t help and the earth didn’t respond.
Then when they hid in leaking houses, dressed in coarse cloth, and fought with the crowds in the slums for nearly expired nutrient fluids, they finally realized: staying alive was such a difficult thing.
