He frowned and said, "A gentleman has things he will and will not do. Aren't you afraid of being punished by the Fox Immortal of Thousand Absolute Mountain for your tyrannical behavior?"
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, Wang Yuba laughed, his underlings laughed, and the onlookers burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, a fox spirit? If there really is a fox spirit on Thousand Absolute Mountain, so many people wouldn't have died unjustly in Thousand Absolute Town!" Wang Yuba patted his chest and said, "If it weren't for me and my brothers protecting them, even more people would have died!"
Gu Liyan frowned, puzzled: Qianjue Town is only located at the foot of Qianjue Mountain and is protected by her father and uncle, so how could there be people who died unjustly?
Seeing that Gu Liyan remained silent, Wang Yuba sneered, "Kid, pay the protection fee and I'll spare your life. Otherwise, be careful not to end up dead in the street at night, becoming a wandering ghost!"
"Young man, just give him the money. You can't buy your life with money!"
"Exactly! As the saying goes, 'Where there's life, there's hope!' You have hands and feet, you can make more money!"

Wang Yuba waved his hand, "No need to be polite, just kill him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his underlings pulled out daggers from behind their backs and rushed towards Gu Liyan.
Gu Liyan snorted coldly, flipped his hand to reveal the jade flute, and went straight to meet the attack.
His figure was like a white lightning bolt, and the jade flute in his hand was like a shooting star streaking across the night sky. Each wave of his hand knocked a person to the ground.
In an instant, only Wang Yuba remained, standing there dumbfounded, staring at the unharmed Gu Liyan.
Glug...
Wang Yuba swallowed hard, looking at Gu Liyan with a terrified expression. "You, who exactly are you?"
Gu Liyan snorted coldly and said, "People from the mountain!"
