At this moment, everyone was shocked beyond words.
Even the rhinoceros chief, who had finally stopped bleeding, vomited two more mouthfuls of blood.
What is going on? Why is even the dignified Lord of Nutao City, Long Bai, so respectful to this young man?
If they heard correctly, City Lord Long Bai actually called the other party "Senior Benefactor"...
He also kowtowed three times in a row.
This is even more respectful than meeting your biological father.
The Barbarian Bull Chief's hand trembled, and the giant axe fell to the ground with a bang.
He looked at Niu Kui viciously, wishing he could strangle him to death immediately.
Niu Kui's face turned green at this moment. He could never have imagined that Ye Chen's strength was so unfathomable.
Even the city lord, whom he respected the most, knelt down when he saw this man.
When he thought about how he had dared to provoke the other party at Weiwei Auction House, his whole body couldn't stop shaking.
I am so lucky to be alive till now...
"Welcome to the City Lord..."
The mammoth chief didn't know what to say, so he had to kneel down first and put his entire face on the ground.
Seeing this, the other three tribes followed suit and knelt on the ground.
But Long Bai turned a deaf ear to everyone's reactions. How could he, being a meticulous person, not see that there was something fishy going on?
Then he looked at Ye Chen cautiously and said, "Senior Benefactor, did any of these people offend you?"
But Ye Chen asked calmly: "Do you know me? Why do you call me benefactor?"
Long Bai kowtowed again, then said respectfully: "As a figure like a god, you naturally disdain a small figure like me, but I dare not forget your kindness forever. Before, I had a battle with Feng Wan at Longfeng Slope. If you hadn't rescued me, I would have been framed by Feng Wan. I will never forget your kindness!"
"Oh, so that person is you."
Ye Chen then remembered that incident and said, "I was just passing by casually and didn't mean to save you, so you don't have to thank me."
Long Bai quickly shook his head and kowtowed three more times, saying, "Senior Benefactor, you possess the demeanor of a great master, and would disdain to accept favors from mortals like us. However, I dare not forget this for a single moment. I only pray that if Senior Benefactor can ever use me in any way in the future, I will do my utmost to serve you without hesitation."
"Okay, get up."
Ye Chen didn't want to listen to his nagging.
"Thank you, Senior!"
Long Bai then stood up cautiously, pointed at the surrounding area, and asked again: "Senior Benefactor, may I ask, why are you with these people?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's heart was in their throat.
Ye Chen just smiled faintly and said, "You have to ask them yourself... Oh, right, they just wanted to take my life."
Long Bai's eyes darkened, and murderous aura instantly filled the entire place.
The Barbarian Bull Chief quickly knelt down and said, "City Lord, calm down. This was all Allen's idea. It has nothing to do with us!"
“That’s right!”
The mammoth leader also hummed: "This is all Allen's idea. We just want to make money, but Allen wants to kill people."
Long Bai instantly locked onto Allen.
Alan suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave.
He shook his head like a rattle and said, "City Lord, please listen to my explanation..."
Long Bai interrupted coldly, "You should explain to the senior and see if he will forgive you."
Allen knelt on his knees and said, "Senior Ye Chen, please, for the sake of my father, forgive me this time..."
"Just now you kept denying Prince Zak, but now you admit he's your child?"
Ye Chen sneered and said, "Don't say you are Prince Zak's son. Even if you are Prince Zak himself, if you dare to provoke me, I will kill you without hesitation!"
Allen's face turned pale as paper when he heard this.
He originally thought that Ye Chen was his father's subordinate, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't even take Prince Zak seriously.
Seeing this, Long Bai slashed with his sword, and Allen died on the spot.
Seeing Alan's tragic death, everyone from the three tribes present trembled all over and their teeth chattered.
Long Bai looked at everyone and said to Ye Chen respectfully again: "My benefactor, these are all my clansmen from the city. It is my fault that I failed to discipline them properly. I hope that the senior will punish me..."
Ye Chen looked at Long Bai with a smile.
The latter instantly felt the pressure as heavy as a mountain, with sweat dripping from his forehead.
He instantly understood that Ye Chen had seen through his intention.
However, these three tribes are the backbone of his city. If they are all killed, the strength of his Nutao City will be greatly damaged.
If we can save one or two, that would naturally be the best.
After a moment, Ye Chen finally spoke: "Well, each clan will pay 10 million spirit stones as a life-saving money, and the matter will be dropped."
Long Bai breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the opponent was too powerful. Every move he made made him feel like he was falling into the abyss.
He then said gratefully, "Thank you very much for not killing me, Senior... Why don't you thank me, Senior, for being my benefactor?"
The latter sentence was said to the three surrounding tribes.
Upon hearing this, everyone knelt down and expressed their gratitude to Ye Chen.
Although these 10 million spirit stones would almost empty the assets of their three clans, it was obvious that saving their lives was the most important thing.
Long Bai said, "Ten million spirit stones is not a small amount for the three clans. I asked them to prepare it as soon as possible and invite the benefactor to stay at my house for a few days so that I can show my filial piety."
"That's not necessary."
Ye Chen jumped onto the dragon's back and said calmly, "I will come to get it after a while. If anyone can't hand it over..."
Upon hearing this, the three clan leaders waved their hands repeatedly, saying "I dare not" and swore to the sky.
Then he greeted Jasmine, who had a silly look on her face at the moment, and said:
"Leave."
Immediately, the old dragon roared again and carried Ye Chen towards the sky.
Looking at the young figure standing on the dragon's head, Long Bai couldn't help but sigh, "This is a true hermit..."
The three clan leaders looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
They really saved their lives today.
After Ye Chen's figure completely disappeared in the horizon, Long Bai looked at Jasmine. Just now, the benefactor had actually taken the initiative to greet her. It was obvious that the relationship between the two was extraordinary.
He then looked at everyone and said coldly, "From now on, all taxes and fees will be waived for Weiwei Auction House. If I find out that anyone dares to collect protection money there again..."
Feeling the city lord's cold gaze, Niu Kui quickly knelt down and said, "Even if you give me a hundred lives, I won't dare to do it again. Moreover, I will bring people to stay there permanently for free to protect it."
Jasmine was stunned and couldn't help sighing in her heart.
It turned out that she was the piece of fat meat that everyone wanted to take a bite of, but just because of Ye Chen's greeting, she no longer had to worry about being bullied from then on.
