Chapter 375 City Gate Blackmail



While everyone was talking, the flying boat had already reached the sky above Pingyang City. Under Chen Hui's control, the flying boat landed on the ground, attracting the people queuing below to stop and watch.

"Tsk tsk tsk~ They are really a bunch of rich people. They actually use something as luxurious as a flying boat. Does anyone of you know the people there?"

“Hehe~ No matter who they are, they are almost entering the city and are still so ostentatious. I’m afraid they will bleed heavily later!”

"Hey~ Aren't those people from Gu Yi Sect? How did they get on the flying boat?"

"It's true. This old man Yu Cheng really likes to get close to people who are rich and powerful!"

…………

The team of disciples from the Shenyin Sect who were guarding the city also exchanged glances with each other, their eyes full of greed. Naturally, they would try their best to squeeze such rich people.

"Haha~ Sect Master Wang, I saw you behind me not long ago, and you were running quite fast. You're even on the list! Yes, the speed of a flying sword is naturally much faster than that of a flying boat!" Yu Cheng jumped off the flying boat and smiled to a middle-aged old man.

"Hmph~ You're just a sycophant, why are you so proud?" Sect Leader Wang snorted coldly and cursed in a low voice.

Yu Cheng seemed not to have heard Sect Master Wang's scolding, and turned to an old man and said, "Hey~ Lao Liu, you are here too? I just tasted a cup of spiritual tea, the taste was amazing! It's such a pity that you are not here!"

"Haha, the best spiritual tea and immortal fate are hard to come by. If I get them, I'm lucky, if I lose them, it's my fate." Old Liu responded with a smile.

"Old Liu, just pretend. You must have been itching to do it for a long time, right?" Yu Cheng joked.

Old Liu smiled and shook his head without responding to him.

"Hey~ Fellow Daoist, who are the people on that flying boat? Can you tell me something?" A cultivator glanced at the people from Lingxiao Sect not far away and asked in a low voice.

The others also pricked up their ears when they heard this. No one had ever seen the group of people coming on the flying boat, and they couldn't help but feel curious.

However, Yu Cheng just smiled mysteriously and did not answer his question.

"I'm talking to you. Line up or you won't be allowed into the city!" a guard shouted.

Everyone cursed under their breath when they heard this and quickly lined up.

Since the people from Lingxiao Sect were basically at the end of the line, the people from Shenyin Sect couldn't wait to blackmail the people from Lingxiao Sect, so they couldn't help but move much faster. As for the sects in front, the guards only took a look at the sect token and then checked if there was the name of that sect in the booklet. Then they blatantly asked for spirit stones, 5 middle-grade spirit stones at a price. This was really a lot for the sects in Ping'an Domain. You know, this was equivalent to 500 low-grade spirit stones. If those people had any complaints, the guards would ask them to go aside and then move on to the next sect.

In the guard's opinion, the fat sheep is still behind, so there is no time to waste with those people, just go to the back and line up again! Anyway, everyone will still have to pay the spirit stone obediently when the time comes!

Not long after, it was the turn of the people from Lingxiao Sect, and the representative sent by Lingxiao Sect was Bai Ziling. After all, apart from Li Yunxi, she had the highest status in Lingxiao Sect.

The people from the Shenyin Sect couldn't stop smiling and said to Bai Ziling, "Hey, show us... your sect tokens!"

"No." Bai Ziling said lightly.

"Which sect?"

"Lingxiao Sect." Bai Ziling remained indifferent.

Several disciples quickly looked through the sect's roster, and soon they started laughing even harder, as this meant they could extort a large sum of money.

"Elder Zhao, the name of their sect is not listed!" A disciple reported to the leading middle-aged cultivator while suppressing his excitement.

"What sect is Ling? It's not recorded in the books. It has no sect or school. According to the regulations, you are not allowed to enter before registration. Do you want to register?" Elder Zhao said with a smile.

"Then register!" Bai Ziling said nonchalantly.

"Haha, fellow Daoist, please spare me a moment to talk." Elder Zhao said.

Bai Ziling was naturally fearless and followed Elder Zhao to the side.

"Fellow Daoist, there has been no precedent for sect registration since the unified registration four years ago. This matter is indeed a bit difficult to handle. You see..." Elder Zhao said with difficulty.

"Tell me, how many spirit stones?" Bai Ziling asked indifferently.

"Haha, fellow Daoist, you are straightforward. This is the number!" Elder Zhao said as he stretched out his hand.

"5 top-grade spirit stones?" Bai Ziling asked.

Elder Zhao was stunned, and he swore to heaven that he was not so cruel. His original intention was 5 high-grade spirit stones, which was already 100 times the entrance fee of other sects. 5 top-grade spirit stones would be 10,000 times more.

Elder Zhao looked at Bai Ziling and found that she didn't seem surprised when she mentioned the five top-grade spirit stones. He gritted his teeth and explained, "Fellow Daoist, don't think too much. These spirit stones are just to help you smooth out the relationship. After all, in this era, people who do things without benefits will not be efficient!"

"Haha~ I understand, I understand. It's just 5 top-grade spirit stones, not much!" Bai Ziling said with a smile, and then reached out to touch the Qiankun Ring on his hand.

Elder Zhao was shocked again: "Could this be the legendary Qiankun Ring? No matter what, I will get the five top-grade spirit stones first. This Qiankun Ring is not something I can afford. I will tell the sect master about this later, and there will definitely be great benefits!"

Elder Zhao turned his head away when he thought of this, no longer looking at the Qiankun Ring in Bai Ziling's hand. He was afraid that he would not be able to resist taking action, so he extended his hand to Bai Ziling, ready to take the top-grade spirit stone.

However, after waiting for a long time, Bai Ziling still did not take out the top-grade spirit stone. Elder Zhao looked at Bai Ziling in confusion, only to see that Bai Ziling was wiping the Qiankun Ring in his hand with his sleeve.

Elder Zhao said in a deep voice: "What do you mean, fellow Daoist? Don't you want to declare your sect?"

Bai Ziling sneered, "I think you are crazy because of poverty. What's your status? Five top-grade spirit stones, I dare to ask for it, and you really dare to take it?"

Elder Zhao's face turned blue and green. He felt like he was being fooled for a long time. He got furious and said, "How dare you! You, an early Jindan cultivator, tease this elder. I think you are tired of living!" As he said that, he was ready to teach Bai Ziling a lesson.

However, at this moment Chen Hui came in front of him in an instant and took the initiative to slap Elder Zhao. Elder Zhao was not afraid at all and swung out a palm, which collided with Chen Hui's palm.

"Bang~" The two palms collided with a loud sound, and Elder Zhao was knocked out. The surrounding sects were shocked to see this scene. They originally thought that Lingxiao Sect would either pay the money obediently or leave in disgrace. They never thought that the result would be like this. People from Lingxiao Sect actually dared to attack the host of this exchange meeting! Do they want to be exterminated?

Elder Zhao climbed up with difficulty, and was extremely shocked. In fact, he had noticed Chen Hui, who was at the peak of the Golden Core realm, a long time ago. He was also at the peak of the Golden Core realm, and he had been in this realm for more than a hundred years. He was confident that the young man could never be his opponent. However, now he was completely defeated. This was so embarrassing!

At this moment, a majestic voice sounded: "What's going on?"

"Young Master!" The disciples of the Hidden Sect of the Gods hurriedly said respectfully.
