Chapter 2496: Brazen Robbery!
Oh my god!
Burning the Mei Family Patriarch to ashes with a single flame!
Instantly killing a Divine King, who is this guy!
...
Looking at Lin Feng, the Ancestor of Shi Family and numerous Family Heads were all stunned, they really didn’t know what to say right now. No one had anticipated that Lin Feng’s power had already reached such a terrifying level. The Mei Family Patriarch was a half-step Divine Venerable, yet he was killed in an instant, right before their eyes and burned to ash. This situation was truly too frightening for them, an unimaginable level of fear!
It was at this moment they realized one thing, which was that Lin Feng never took them seriously from the start. Thinking back to when they teamed up to push down the Holy Pill Pavilion, their expressions instantly turned extremely sour. No one expected things to evolve in this way!
Oh my god, this...this is Lin Feng!
It was Gu Tianhai’s first time seeing Lin Feng make a move, and witnessing such a scene left him completely dumbfounded. He had guessed that Lin Feng was surely exceptional, and even knew that Lin Feng’s strength should be very formidable, but he never thought Lin Feng’s strength was this formidable. Such power simply overturned all his previous perceptions. Someone so young, yet with such terrifying strength, it was unbelievably frightening!
Turning his gaze to Lin Feng, he really didn’t know how to express his feelings, but he now vaguely understood why Lin Feng was so determined to establish a Sect. With Lin Feng being this terrifying at such a young age, what level he will reach once he grows could truly be unimaginable!
At a time, Gu Tianhai found himself at a loss for words, leaving only excitement behind because Lin Feng’s strength had exceeded his expectations. The grand plan of founding a Sect could likely be expedited much sooner. Thinking about establishing a Sect in the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm in the future filled his heart with passionate excitement!
"What are you standing around for, sit down and talk!"
Lin Feng looked at the Ancestor of Shi Family and the other six Family Heads and said blandly. He had intended to suppress strongly before, to let them realize that the Holy Pill Pavilion cannot be bullied easily and make clear that not just anyone can bully the Holy Pill Pavilion—at the very least, they must have the capacity!
Now it could be seen that the intimidation was quite successful; these old fellows were now behaving themselves, and only with that could he achieve the desired result. Even if he is gone in the future, no one will dare to target the Holy Pill Pavilion.
Everyone upon hearing, sat down, but they took spots very far from Lin Feng, fearing that Lin Feng might again make a move to kill them. Only Lan Litang, who had previously come, was sat beside Lin Feng. After sitting down, no one knew what to say, making the scene awkward to the extreme.
Seeing everyone sat and silent, Lin Feng then spoke, "So tell me, after you pushed down my Holy Pill Pavilion, today I invite you to a feast, and you didn’t come, what are your intentions?"
Upon hearing, cold sweat started breaking out on their foreheads, this situation was not at all what they had envisioned, if they had known Lin Feng was such a mighty figure, even with ten guts they wouldn’t dare push down the Holy Pill Pavilion.
But presently in this situation, they have become sheep roasting on the fire, feeling immensely uncomfortable, unsure about Lin Feng’s exact intentions. If they were to speak wrongly and anger Lin Feng, it would be disastrous.
At this moment, Lan Litang was also extremely anxious. Although next to Lin Feng, cold sweat had broken out on him too. Indeed, he came to attend the feast, but he couldn’t senselessly think that Lin Feng wasn’t going to hold him accountable. After a pause for consideration, he took the initiative to say, "Pavilion Master Lin, regarding the previous matter, it was my Lan Family’s rashness, my Lan Family is willing to provide one million Yuan Stones to rectify our mistake."
Saying this, he raised his goblet and drained it in one go, though inside, his heart was pounding fiercely, he was glad he came, and he anticipated that Lin Feng was definitely here to shake them down tonight, as for to what degree he’d be shaken down, he couldn’t foresee. The Lan Family in this event was passive, and offering one million Yuan Stones might clear Lin Feng’s sights off the Lan Family.
"Master Lan is too kind, when the Holy Pill Pavilion opens someday, come by and have a drink!"
Lin Feng was straightforward and agreed, honestly, he noticed that Lan Litang was a smart person, first to come to the feast and first to take the initiative to offer compensation, making Lin Feng take a good second glance at Lan Litang.
"Of course, when the Holy Pill Pavilion opens, how could I not go, must go congratulate!" Lan Litang responded immediately, and fearing a lack of sincerity, he voluntarily drank another glass.
Seeing Lan Litang behaving like this, Lin Feng’s face revealed a smile, he nodded at Lan Litang, then turned his gaze towards the others present, making their scalps tingle immediately.
Among the nine Prominent Families, the Qian Family Patriarch hesitated for a moment upon seeing the others silent, finally deciding to stand up and voluntarily said, "Pavilion Master Lin, my Qian Family apologizes for our previous actions, we are also willing to provide one million Yuan Stones to express our apology."
The Qian Family Patriarch knew clearly that today’s matter wouldn’t end smoothly, without genuine sincerity shown, there was no way they’d leave here, so he also quoted the value set by Lan Litang. Thinking, if Lan Litang could offer one million Yuan Stones, it should be feasible for him as well since the various families were basically similar.
But he overlooked one thing, which was that Lan Litang had come voluntarily tonight and handled the situation well, so while Lan Litang could offer one million Yuan Stones, that was simply not possible for the Qian Family.
"One million Yuan Stones?" Lin Feng listened to the Qian Family Patriarch and immediately laughed, looking at him as if he were a fool before coldly tossing a number at him that made the Qian Family Patriarch shiver: "Ten million Yuan Stones!"
"What!" The Qian Family Patriarch upon hearing this from Lin Feng immediately panicked, ten million Yuan Stones was no small number for the Qian Family, many years were needed to make such an amount, and having to pay this kind of price just for pushing the Holy Pill Pavilion down made him truly unable to accept it. He looked at Lin Feng angrily and said, "Pavilion Master Lin, I admit what we did before was wrong, but you can’t do this, isn’t this brazen robbery!"
"Indeed, I am brazenly robbing!" Lin Feng looked at the Qian Family Patriarch coldly and said, pointing to the Shadow Stones on the table, he continued, "Can you compare to Master Lan, he is uniquely the only one among you to have attended the feast, he can pay one million Yuan Stones, and you want only to pay one million Yuan Stones? Do you think the Shadow Stones on the table aren’t worth that price? No problem, if you don’t pay up, I can broadcast those two pieces of yours, let all of Ling City see the grandeur of the Qian Family."
The Qian Family Patriarch who wanted to argue further instantly shriveled upon hearing this from Lin Feng, no matter the cost, he couldn’t let the Qian Family’s matters be broadcasted, if that really happened, he would be the first to die. Thinking this, he disregarded any pride and quickly said to Lin Feng, "Pavilion Master Lin, please don’t, I’ll pay, I’ll provide ten million Yuan Stones!"
Though unwilling, the Qian Family Patriarch understood one thing, Lin Feng was absolutely someone they couldn’t afford to provoke. If others obtained those Shadow Stones, it would be suicide, but in Lin Feng’s possession, they were murder instruments, frustratingly maddening him to death now. If not for the City Lord requiring them to push down the Holy Pill Pavilion, Qian Family wouldn’t have gotten Lin Feng’s attention, now it’s truly pushing the Qian Family into ruin!
"My Zhao Family is willing to provide ten million Yuan Stones!"
"My Tang Family is willing to provide ten million Yuan Stones!"
...
With the Qian Family Patriarch as a precedent, the other five Family Heads also expressed willingness to provide ten million Yuan Stones each, despite their hearts bleeding, facing Lin Feng’s dominance they had no courage to resist. This was someone capable of instantly killing a half-step Divine Venerable, any misstep and they wouldn’t even know how they’d die. It could be said, Lin Feng in this Ling City was practically a god, whatever Lin Feng commanded, they had no choice but to comply!
Additionally, what concerned them the most were the Shadow Stones on the table, they absolutely mustn’t be broadcast, if they truly were, the sky in Ling City would be overturned...
The Ancestor of Shi Family at last, watching everyone express themselves felt stuck too, his situation was different because he previously threatened Lin Feng, hesitating, he finally tentatively said, "Pavilion Master Lin, my Shi Family is willing to provide twelve million Yuan Stones."
Once these words left his mouth, his heart grew even more anxious, unsure if Lin Feng would agree, thinking just over one sentence from him led to paying two million additional Yuan Stones, his heart was bleeding...
"Agreed." Lin Feng looked at the Ancestor of Shi Family and said blandly, his conduct was satisfactory, recognizing where the mistake lay and allowing forgiveness.
Glancing at Gu Tianhai who had become completely flabbergasted at this point, Lin Feng directly addressed him, "Did you note what these Family Heads said down, go collect the Yuan Stones from each family tomorrow, we need them for the reconstruction of the Holy Pill Pavilion!"
"Understood..." Gu Tianhai just then regained his senses, responding simply, but looking at Lin Feng his heart was filled with reverence, Lin Feng’s methods were exceedingly strong, though indeed the best approach, after tonight, surely no one in Ling City would dare target the Holy Pill Pavilion again!
The numerous Family Heads upon hearing, nearly spat blood, but in this moment dared not utter a word, only bowing heads pondering how to solve this issue within their families, it certainly wasn’t a trivial sum, there could be internal upheaval within the family...
