Upon hearing Chu Mo's words, the burly man's face lit up with joy.

After hesitating for a moment, he scratched his head sheepishly and chuckled sheepishly:

"Young master, if you really want this tiger cat, just give me eight thousand top-grade spirit stones."

Chu Mo was surprised; he had never seen anyone in business proactively lower prices.

You should know that losing two thousand top-grade spirit stones is equivalent to losing two hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones, which is no small sum.

Take the Qingcang Immortal Sect as an example. It is already considered to have abundant resources, and the treatment of its disciples is the best among the surrounding sects.

However, each core disciple can only receive two to three hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones per year.

As if sensing his confusion, the man quickly expressed his gratitude:

"If it weren't for your intervention, young master, this spirit beast would have been forcibly sold off cheaply, or even stolen away."

"By then, let alone eight thousand," I'm afraid we won't even get a thousand.

"If I hadn't desperately needed these spirit stones to buy a life-saving elixir for my daughter, I should have received even fewer."

As he spoke, the burly man's face turned red, and he was filled with shame.

Chu Mo laughed heartily, took out ten thousand top-grade spirit stones from his spatial ring, floated them in front of the man, and politely said:

"You don't need to be so polite, I appreciate your kindness, but my actions have nothing to do with you, the amount is what it should be."

After saying that, he picked up the iron cage and turned to leave with the two women.

"Wang Qiang, thank you, young master!"

The burly man whispered gratefully to himself; he desperately needed these spirit stones now.

He didn't dare ask the other person's name, nor did he dare to reveal his own.

They were worried that if others overheard, it would create trouble for each other.

After bowing respectfully to Chu Mo's retreating figure, he quickly turned and left.

Soon, the once bustling street returned to calm.

After a while.

A middle-aged woman with a panicked expression suddenly led a group of cultivators to rush over.

Upon seeing the mangled corpse on the ground, the beautiful woman turned deathly pale and rushed forward, screaming in panic:

"Master, Zhou'er, please don't scare me. What will I do after you die?"

The middle-aged woman cried her heart out, while the guards behind her looked horrified.

They had only heard that a guard had gone home to report that the young master had been bullied and that the head of the family had already gone there.

How could the patriarch and the young master both be dead in such a short time?

Just then.

Everyone present felt their bodies stiffen and find it difficult to move.

A terrifying pressure, as large as a mountain, instantly enveloped the area within a hundred miles.

It was as if a savage beast was coldly staring at the crowd, ready to devour them.

Those with higher cultivation levels hurriedly strained their eyes to look up.

A terrifying figure, exuding an aura of malevolence, was seen descending rapidly from the sky.

It was an old man with a cold face, bloodshot eyes, and a terrifying killing intent emanating from him.

That furious gaze, seemingly emanating from the deepest hell, immediately caused everyone around to lower their eyes and dare not look directly at him.

They had a gut feeling that if they dared to look at them a few more times, the other party would tear them to pieces.

The middle-aged woman who was crying also noticed this scene.

However, when she saw the cold, old man, she seemed to find her anchor, and rushed towards him with a mournful cry:

"Uncle, why are you only arriving now? Your elder brother and nephew have both been murdered!"

"They died such a terrible death! You must avenge them, grind their bones to dust, and exterminate their entire family!"

As she continued speaking, the middle-aged woman's originally beautiful and delicate face became grotesque, like a vengeful ghost.

She was just an ordinary woman, but she caught Lu Quan's eye because of her outstanding looks.

From then on, she lived a life of tyranny and dominance. Now that she has lost her husband and son, who can she rely on in the future?

Looking at the indifferent old man in front of her, she felt a little more at ease.

This is the master's own younger brother.

From now on, perhaps only this younger brother-in-law will be able to rely on.

Otherwise, wouldn't the enemies the Lu family had offended before tear her apart?

Thinking of this, she tightened her grip on the old man's arm.

Her peach blossom eyes revealed a pitiful, shy, and delicate appearance.

Lu Yan glanced at her coldly, pulled his arm away from her grasp, his expression cold and disgusted.

But in the end, I held back.

Although she wasn't his brother's first wife, she was still his sister-in-law.

Let's put aside the monk's feelings for the Buddha's sake.

"Tell me the whole story clearly, without missing a single detail," Lu Yan said, barely suppressing his anger.

The middle-aged woman suddenly looked uneasy, stole a glance at him, and hurriedly said:

"Well, I'm not really sure either. I just heard from the maid that Zhou'er was being bullied and that the master had left in a hurry."

"I wasn't comfortable with it, so I brought my people along, and this is what happened when we got here."

"Uncle, you must catch the murderer and avenge Master and Zhou'er."

At this point, the middle-aged woman couldn't help but burst into tears, heartbroken and sorrowful.

"What's the use of crying? Quickly arrange for someone to properly collect and bury my brother's body."

Lu Yan finally couldn't contain his frustration and yelled at her.

After saying that, he looked up to the sky and roared:

"Listen up, people of Fenglei City! Anyone who knows the truth, rush to the scene and report to me immediately. Anyone who dares to conceal it will have the entire city wiped out!"

The explosive and violent sound waves were like a world-destroying divine thunder descending from the heavens, shaking the entire city.

This caused babies to cry and adults to tremble, and the city, which had just regained its peace, began to descend into chaos again.
