Chapter 21 Pressure



Xu Youzhi took a deep breath and bowed slightly, appearing quite respectful. "Deacon Chen, this contains a hundred first-grade immortal beasts, 70% of which are high-grade first-grade immortal beasts. According to the market price, they are worth at least 40,000 immortal stones."

He knew that Deacon Chen, who had reached the Tianyan realm, was one of the top-ranked deacons in Jubaozhai.

He had already made up his mind. If they couldn't reach an agreement, he would have to give up selling it for the time being. The gap between them and such people was too great.

"The price we set at Jubaozhai is the market price. This is the price of most immortal beasts these days. Furthermore, I have a feeling your immortal beasts are of unknown origin. We are taking a risk in acquiring them."

Deacon Chen remained serious, his eyes flashing with cold confidence as he spoke.

It was as if the corpses of these immortal beasts had already become his possession.

"Then we won't sell it." Xu Youzhi took a deep breath and put away the storage bag.

"Don't sell? I tell you clearly, in Panlong City, only our Jubaozhai can accept this batch of immortal beast corpses. If you don't sell it now, the price will definitely not be this high in the future." Deacon Chen sneered.

Xu Qingying frowned slightly and said gently, "Deacon Chen, your studio has always had a good reputation. I'm afraid your actions now will damage it, right?"

"Damage your reputation? You're the only ones who want to threaten me?" Deacon Chen said with disdain, "I won't waste my time with you. If you don't sell these immortal beast carcasses to me today, the news that you, Shouquan, are carrying the corpses of a hundred first-grade immortal beasts of unknown origin will spread throughout Panlong City. Then, I, the deacon, will see whether it's our reputation that's damaged, or your things that are damaged."

Lu Qing'an had been standing behind Xu Youzhi and others. He had originally had a calm expression on his face, but when he heard this, his eyes narrowed.

This guy's meaning is very clear. They must have special means to obtain so many corpses of immortal beasts.

Once this matter spreads, it will naturally attract a lot of attention.

It's a life-threatening situation.

If he was just being cheated, Lu Qing'an wouldn't bother to take action, but this has already threatened his life!

Xu Youzhi naturally heard the threat in these words. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "You two go out first. I will talk to Deacon Chen in detail."

Xu Qingying and others looked at each other for a moment, and finally chose to believe Xu Youzhi and left the reception room one after another.

After everyone left, Xu Youzhi took out a jade slip for transmitting sound and inputted immortal energy into it.

"Brother Lin Dong, my companions and I hunted some immortal beasts and brought their carcasses to Jubaozhai, but we ran into some trouble."

Deacon Chen stared at Xu Youzhi silently until he heard the word "Lin Dong", then he frowned slightly.

He knew this Lin Dong, who was the adopted son of an elder of the Lin family.

"Which deacon is it?" A young man's voice came from the jade slip.

"Deacon Chen." Xu Youzhi said truthfully.

"Is Deacon Chen here? For my sake and my father's, could you please not bother with them?" There was a hint of earnestness in the voice transmission.

Deacon Chen frowned slightly, weighing the pros and cons for a moment before saying, "Your adoptive father and I have an average relationship. Of course, I can give you a favor and give them an extra 5,000 immortal stones."

"Okay, thank you very much."

"Youzhi, I can only help you up to this point."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Lin Dong." Xu Youzhi showed a bitter look on his face and put away the jade slip for transmitting sound.

Twenty-five thousand immortal stones is still quite a bit different from the market price!

"Deacon Chen, for the sake of Brother Lin Dong, can you pretend that we have never been here?" Xu Youzhi still hoped not to sell the corpses of these immortal beasts.

"Hmph! You really don't know what's good for you! Who is Lin Dong! Even if his father is here, he has to call me Brother Chen!" Deacon Chen thought that if he gave in a little, he could easily get the order. But after hearing Xu Youzhi's request, his face instantly darkened and he decided to use some intimidation.

Xu Youzhi's face looked extremely ugly, with a mixture of blue and white, and he seemed extremely hesitant.

Outside the reception room, a group of people also had grim expressions and were talking in low voices.

“That’s too much of a bully!”

"I don't know if Youzhi can solve it. If not, we will just have to bear the loss..."

"Hey, who made us of such low status..."

Zhen Yongfu also frowned with a stern expression, but he soon noticed that Lu Qing'an gave him a wink.

His expression changed slightly, and he understood Lu Qingan's meaning. He stepped forward to attract the attention of others, especially Xu Qingying, and said, "Everyone, if Fellow Daoist Xu can't solve it, we will have no choice but to compromise. Don't blame Fellow Daoist Xu then..."

Zhen Yongfu and his companions talked for a few words and suddenly stopped. They saw a fat middle-aged man walking quickly towards them. He was wearing the clothes of a deacon from Jubaozhai.

When Xu Qingying and others saw another deacon coming, they felt pressured again.

After this incident, they no longer have a good impression of people of these identities.

"Who among you is Xu Youzhi?" Liu Bude came in front of the crowd, glanced at them for a moment, and asked with a kind smile on his face.

Xu Qingying and others were somewhat surprised and suspicious.

"He's in there!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Bude nodded slightly at them and walked in through the door.

"What's the matter?" Deacon Chen asked coldly when he saw Liu Bude coming.

Liu Bude ranks in the middle among the deacons, which is quite a gap from his performance as a deacon who has been performing well for several years.

Liu Bude ignored Steward Chen and looked at Xu Youzhi, immediately showing a flattering smile.

"My friend, are you Xu Youzhi?"

Xu Youzhi was slightly surprised and nodded, "That's right."

"Are you going to sell the corpse of the immortal beast? Can you show it to me and I will give you a good price!" Liu Bude didn't waste any words. After receiving the message from that person, he came over like a flying star.

Not to mention such a small favor, even if the other party asked him to have a big fight with any deacon, he would agree without hesitation.

"Liu Bude! What do you mean!" Deacon Chen was furious when he heard this and shouted.

"Chen Wutian, you bully the juniors? How can you have the nerve to do that? You've been treated like a living dog all these years!" If it were in the past, Liu Bude would naturally not want to offend Chen Wutian, but now it's different.

He had just been appointed by the president as the general manager!

In other words, from that moment on, all the deacons of the Jubaozhai Guild were under his charge!

A little Chen Wutian, do you think you can rebel?

Chen Wutian looked incredulous, then his eyes blazed with anger as he said, "How dare you! I want to see who gave you the guts to speak to me like that!"

Chen Wutian was also a smart man. After he finished speaking, he had a guess. It must be Lin Dong or Lin Dong's father who asked Liu Bude to come.

Xu Youzhi looked at this scene and after a moment of distraction, he had the same thought. He couldn't help but feel grateful for Lin Dong's energy and at the same time remembered this favor.

Who would have thought that given their friendship, Lin Dong could actually do this!

When Xu Qingying and others saw this scene, their eyes widened.

There was a hint of admiration in everyone's eyes when looking at Xu Youzhi.

This is too amazing! We are both from Shouquan, but we can actually find such a supporter!

Zhen Yongfu looked at Xu Youzhi, then stole a glance at Lu Qingan.

He suspected that Liu Bude was not called by Xu Youzhi, but was his good brother!
