"What law?"

"The law of offering rewards."

What is its full name?

Yan Dingyun frowned and said calmly:

"The Second Codex of the New Edition of the Spirit Master's Compendium of Rewards".

"Yes, that's the law of bounties for spirit masters. It has nothing to do with the demon race, right? My Feng family is a demon race! May I ask if the Spirit Pivot Pavilion has any bounty laws targeting the demon race? Or is there any law in it that applies to this situation?"

Yan Dingyun's lips twitched. Damn it... we've fallen for their trap!

He was speechless for a moment, and to be honest, he had a million things he wanted to say back.

But he couldn't be too absolute; he knew that this wind chime wasn't short of money.

After all... I just took advantage of the starter three recently.

He could easily declare in front of the world that he would no longer accept the bounty and would not hand over the Ten Mile Ghost Nightmare, because that was not what he wanted.

Then he said in a deep voice:

"Regarding this matter, the Ling Shu Pavilion will hold a meeting after this commendation ceremony to make a decision, and we will give you a reply at that time."

He couldn't possibly agree to the wind chime's request on the spot, otherwise that regulation would be invalidated.

He was thinking of secretly giving some money afterward to settle the matter.

But upon closer reflection, Fengling could have easily discussed these things privately; why did she have to bring them into the open...

They're just here to cause trouble!

Why is he picking a fight? Did the Ling Shu Pavilion offend him?

They've really messed with him! Back at the border, Yan Dingyun really wanted to kill him. Although he didn't cause any serious harm, Fengling still remembers that.

Yan Dingyun suddenly had a bad feeling; he felt that this was just the beginning!

The wind chime smiled:

"Alright, no objections, the commendation ceremony can begin."

Yan Dingyun opened her mouth, but her lines were stolen by the wind chime again, and she felt a surge of anger.

After calming myself down again, I decided to let it go.

At least we can get to the point now.

He then followed up on Feng Ling's words and said in a deep voice:

"On May 1st, in the battle of the capital, the Huaxia spirit masters fought against the ninth-tier demon king, Shili Guiyan. The Lei family provided long-range fire support and assisted in clearing the field, reducing a large number of casualties and damage to public property. After deliberation by the Ling Shu Pavilion, they are awarded a third-class merit. The reward includes the return of the missile manufacturing costs, 1 billion spirit coins, a certain amount of research materials, and several research licenses. Considering their merit, this can offset their previous mistake, the misunderstanding is cleared up, and the Lei family is released from surveillance. However, the fine will not be refunded."

"Yay!"

The Lei family members were also watching the live stream and were overjoyed.

The checkup is over, I can finally go out for a massage... wait, I mean, I can finally walk with my head held high.

People were quite surprised when they heard this:

"Is the reward for a third-class merit really that generous? One billion! How much does a first-class merit get?"

"Who received the first-class merit? The Ruo family or the Feng family?"
