Chapter 600: Come and Die! [Third Update]
Jing Shanqu and his group stood there, dumbfounded.
"Jing Shanqu, take your people and get out of Splendid Pill Tower immediately!" Jing Yan then looked at Jing Shanqu and ordered.
He wouldn’t employ someone like him despite his abilities.
"Jing Yan, you can’t do this!" Jing Shanqu’s face turned deathly pale.
"Oh? And why can’t I do this?" Jing Yan laughed upon hearing this response.
"You... I, I have given so much to Splendid Pill Tower, how can you dismiss me so casually? Without me, could Splendid Pill Tower have developed so quickly? Jing Yan, you can’t burn bridges like this!" Jing Shanqu was truly desperate.
Being expelled from Splendid Pill Tower would not only mean losing a significant source of Spirit Stones but would also be extremely humiliating.
"Enough! Save your breath. I’m giving you an opportunity to leave unscathed; leave Splendid Pill Tower immediately. I couldn’t care less to pursue what you’ve done; whatever resources you’ve embezzled, I won’t hold it against you. But if you refuse to see reason, don’t blame me for being ruthless!" Jing Yan had no patience for more idle talk with Jing Shanqu.
"I mean, even if you established Splendid Pill Tower, can’t you be a bit less tyrannical? Jing Shanqu has sacrificed so much over these years, and you just let him go like this? Aren’t you afraid people will talk behind your back?" A middle-aged man sitting next to Jing Shanqu raised his voice.
This man, extremely close to Jing Shanqu, was also someone Jing Shanqu had brought into Splendid Pill Tower. He could see now that if Jing Shanqu was expelled, he would surely be driven out as well.
He knew that Splendid Pill Tower was established by Jing Yan, and he knew of Jing Yan’s status in the Jing Family and his reputation in Donglin City. However, fearing for his own future, he boldly accused Jing Yan.
Jing Yan’s gaze shifted toward the speaker.
