Qin Fei was trembling violently, not from pain, but from fear.
If he had known there was such a powerful person among them, he shouldn't have shown off like that!
"Young master...you flatter me."
Once he realized what was happening, Qin Fei immediately put on a fawning smile.
"My worthless life is not worth five hundred top-grade sea stones, not even five low-grade sea stones!"
"oh?"
Lin Feng was amused by his posture.
"So that's how it is. Then why did you ask us for five hundred top-grade sea stones earlier?"
"I'm a lowly person, I'm blind to your greatness! Please, sir, just ignore me and let me go!"
Qin Fei has no other skills, except that he is good at knowing how to read the room and understand people's expressions. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to stand on equal footing with Lü Hu at such a young age. Seeing Lin Feng amused, he immediately became even more subservient. As long as Lin Feng gave the order, he would even abandon his dignity to lick Lin Feng's shoes!
Lin Feng shook his head.
“You’re not exaggerating. I think Brother Qin’s life is worth five hundred top-grade sea stones. Not only you, but Brother Lü is also worth it, and the brothers behind you are even more worth it! Even those thugs who died outside are worth five hundred top-grade sea stones!”
"Ahem, Lin Ye, help me calculate how much these top-grade sea stones are worth?"
"Reporting to young master, the total is eighteen thousand yuan!"
Mo Ye sneered and replied.
Beside him, Shen Xiaohong did a detailed calculation and nodded in agreement: "That's right, it is indeed 18,000 sea stones."
Qin Fei and Lü Hu exchanged a glance; their intuition told them that Lin Feng might be about to stir up trouble.
"Thirty-six thousand top-grade sea stones, enough to buy your lives. Hand them over."
As expected, Lin Feng waved his hand and asked for 36,000 top-grade sea stones.
"ah?"
Qin Fei was stunned, and Lü Hu was also taken aback.
"What? You won't give it to me?"
"No, no, no, young master, you misunderstand. It's just... we're one thing, but those outside..."
Qin Fei said hesitantly.
"Yes, those outside count too."
Lin Feng's words were concise and to the point.
He couldn't be bothered to explain to the two of them.
It's just robbery, right? He can do that too, and he'll be even more ruthless than them!
Lin Feng is also very adept at double-crossing.
"Starting now, every fifteen minutes, add ten thousand pieces of top-grade sea stone. By the way, no credit or price reductions allowed."
Lin Feng's smile remained kind, but Qin Fei and Lü Hu felt as if they had seen a demon.
"Oh, did I forget to emphasize that? It's the Sea Blade Sect and the Sea Sword Sect that are giving me 36,000 top-grade sea stones each, not the other way around for a total of 36,000 top-grade sea stones. I'm emphasizing this now, so there can't be any mistake, right?"
After Lin Feng finished speaking, he said to the half-dead shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper Li, bring two more plates of beef and two jars of wine."
"I'll go!"
Ye Lingya's Adam's apple bobbed. After realizing Lin Feng's methods, he dared not be negligent in the slightest and hurriedly prepared the meat and wine on behalf of Manager Li.
"What the hell are you standing there for?!"
Despite the excruciating pain, Qin Fei slapped his subordinate with his only remaining hand and roared, "Hurry up and go back and get me the sea stone!"
As he spoke, he gave his younger brother a wink.
There's no doubt he couldn't come up with 36,000 top-grade sea stones. His position wasn't very lucrative, and Qin Fei had been tightening his belt these past few years, but he'd only managed to save a little over 5,000 top-grade sea stones at most.
Just because he didn't have it doesn't mean Zhang Haijian didn't. As long as Zhang Haijian knows about this, he won't fail to come to his rescue for the sake of the reputation of the entire Haijian Sect!
Lin Feng seemed to have known about his plan all along, but he did not step forward to stop him.
"You all go back too! Hurry up!"
Lu Hu's voice became more urgent, no longer as calm as before.
"yes!"
A short while later, two figures walked in from outside the door.
Normally, Zhang Haidao and Zhang Haijian would avoid meeting each other, because their grudges would usually be resolved by their own juniors. If they met, they would have to consider the power they had built up and avoid a good fight, which would only cause them more resentment. But now the situation was different, because of that damned young master, the two of them had come together for the first time.
"It's been years, but you're still as handsome and dashing as ever."
Zhang Haijian spoke first, his tone sarcastic and unpleasant.
"You're pretty much the same. All these years have passed, and you still talk in such an annoying way!"
Zhang Haidao had a mean and sharp-tongued appearance and a thin build, while Zhang Haijian was the complete opposite, with a bloated and greasy face that would make even a fly want to do a split if it landed on him.
"Who is this young master who is so domineering, demanding over 30,000 top-grade sea stones? Let my brother and I see for ourselves!"
Zhang Haijian stepped forward, saw Lin Feng and his group of four, and immediately sneered, thinking to himself that his young men were really useless, that they could be fooled by their attire!
Even within the Divine Soul Realm, there are varying levels of strength. He simply didn't believe that young boy was stronger than the two of them!
Zhang Haidao silently followed behind Zhang Haijian, also silently observing the four of them.
Soon, he fixed his gaze on Lin Feng. Needless to say, it was clear from the eyes of the three people around him that this young man was the leader of the team.
"This must be the young man."
Lin Feng didn't even look up, and drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.
"You're half an hour late. According to the rules, you should pay an extra 40,000 top-grade sea stones. So you were wrong earlier; it's not 36,000, but 76,000!"
"I am reminded by Mo Ye in a cold voice."
"What audacity!"
Zhang Haidao, not to be outdone, said in a deep voice, "My Haidao Sect has stood strong in this area for over a decade, and this is the first time anyone has dared to extort money from me!"
"Brother, I don't think we need to waste our breath on them. They're just a few ignorant outsiders. A good beating will make them behave!"
Zhang Haijian could no longer tolerate it and revealed his Divine Soul Realm cultivation!
boom!
As the two streams of spiritual energy descended, Mo Ye's expression turned even colder.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the spiritual power that Zhang Haidao and Zhang Haijian were so proud of instantly dissipated!
"What?!"
The two were horrified.
This young man's cultivation level was actually slightly stronger than theirs!
Mo Ye laughed disdainfully.
"It's just a pill jar; all show and no substance!"
The two men's expressions changed.
"Young Master, what should we do with these two? I think if we kill them directly and then confiscate the property of the Sea Blade Sect and the Sea Sword Sect, we'll definitely find tens of thousands of top-grade sea stones!"
The two old men exchanged a glance and almost simultaneously knelt on the ground, their voices equally loud.
"We were blind to your greatness, young master! We beg you to have mercy and spare our lives!"
"puff--!"
Ye Lingya spat out the rice wine in his mouth and stared at the two of them in disbelief.
Those two old bastards have absolutely no integrity!
Where is your pride?
Was it eaten?!
