Madman pointed at the White-eyed Wolf, looked at Qin Feiyang and said angrily: "Do you see that? Do you see that? This child is unteachable!"
Qin Feiyang patted Madman's shoulder and comforted him: "Although I also have the same intention, you can't force things. Look on the bright side."
"That's right."
"The emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is."
The White-eyed Wolf dug his nose.
"I became a eunuch?"
Madman was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
"Scram!"
Suddenly.
A shout sounded. Two black-clothed youths hurriedly walked over and pushed away Qin Feiyang and the others. They then walked towards the accessory store without looking back.
"Hmm?"
Qin Feiyang and the others were stunned.
What's going on?
When they came back to their senses, the two had already entered the accessory store.
"Who is so arrogant?"
Madman frowned.
Qin Feiyang, the White-eyed Wolf, and the Daifuku brothers also looked suspiciously at the accessory store.
"Do you see the word 'Heaven' on their chests?"
"That's the symbol of the Heavenly Palace."
"They are both disciples of the Heavenly Palace."
The surrounding pedestrians also came over and whispered.
Qin Feiyang and Madman looked at each other.
No wonder they were so arrogant. It turned out that they were disciples of the Heavenly Palace.
As the ruler of the Northern Continent, the disciples of the Heavenly Palace naturally had unparalleled status and power.
No matter who it was, they had to be respectful when they saw them.
"Not good."
"They are going to the accessory store of the two Highnesses!"
The Daifuku brothers' faces suddenly changed as they quickly ran towards the accessory store.
Qin Feiyang and the White-eyed Wolf looked at each other and immediately followed.
Accessory store.
All the items sold here were handmade items.
The store was not very big, but it was full of dazzling items.
Princess Huofeng was holding a jade pendant and carefully examining it. Pyrotechnic Glow was also curiously looking at the small items placed on the counter.
Other than the siblings, there were more than a dozen young men and women.
Most of them were couples.
The owner of the shop was an old man. He was dressed in plain clothes, had white hair, and was hunched over. However, he seemed to be in good spirits. He had a polite smile on his face as he kept introducing various items to the customers in the shop.
It could be said that the atmosphere in the shop was quite harmonious.
However, with the arrival of the two Heavenly Hall's disciples, the customers in the store immediately fell into a panic. One by one, they put down the items in their hands and retreated to the side. Their faces were filled with fear as they looked at the black-clothed young man and the black-clothed young man.
The shop owner's expression changed slightly when he saw the two young men. He hurriedly ran in front of them with a flattering smile on his old face.
"Hmm?"
Princess Huofeng raised her head and looked at the two of them. A hint of suspicion flashed across her eyes. Then, she lowered her head and looked at the jade pendant in her hand.
She did not recognize the symbol of the Heavenly Palace at all.
Moreover, even if they knew each other, they would not care about two mere Sky Palace's disciples.
"Old man, have you prepared the things we want?"
The two young men looked at the old man with their noses in the air, looking overbearing.
"Not … yet."
The old man stammered, his face filled with fear.
"What?"
"Not yet?"
"Do you take our words for granted?"
"We said last time that we'll only give you three months."
"Old man, we've already given you enough face by giving you three months to prepare. So, don't be so shameless."
The two of them immediately roared with hostility when they heard the old man's words.
"I know, I know …"
"But as you can see, I only have this small shop. Asking me to gather ten million Soul Stones in three months is really difficult for me."
"Why don't you give me a few more months?"
The old man looked at the two of them pleadingly.
"What?"
"You want us to give you a few more months?"
The two of them were furious when they heard that. They said in a gloomy voice, "Let me tell you, you have to give us the ten million Soul Stones today. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude and destroying your lousy shop."
Qin Feiyang and the others entered the accessory store. They walked to Princess Huofeng and Pyrotechnic Glow and asked suspiciously, "What's going on?"
"It seems like they're here to collect their debts."
Pyrotechnic Glow shook his head.
Of course, this kind of thing couldn't arouse his interest.
Besides, it was only right and proper to repay debts.
Hearing the two young men's words, the old man's expression changed. He quickly waved his hand and said, "You can't destroy it. You can't destroy it. I've already gathered more than a million Soul Stones. Why don't I give it to you first?"
"You only managed to gather more than a million Soul Stones in three months?"
"Then how long do we have to wait for the ten million?"
The two of them were full of hostility.
"Sorry, sorry …"
"It's all because I'm useless. Please give me a little more time!"
The old man was already kneeling on the ground and begging.
Princess Huofeng put down the jade pendant in her hand. She glanced at the pitiful old man, then at the two arrogant young men. She smiled faintly and said, "Old man, how much is this jade pendant?"
The old man looked at Princess Huofeng and said apologetically, "Miss, I'm sorry. Our shop only accepts Soul Stones. If you're willing, give me a hundred Soul Stones!"
Normally, transactions were done with Divine Crystals.
Using Soul Stones here seemed like the old man had no choice but to pay his debts.
"Okay."
Princess Huofeng nodded and looked at Daifuku beside her. She smiled and said, "Give him ten million Soul Stones."
"Ah?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Including the two young men.
Didn't the shop owner say that he only wanted a hundred Soul Stones? Why did he give ten million?
Qin Feiyang and Madman also looked at each other. When they came back to their senses, they laughed inwardly. "This woman is quite kind."
Princess Huofeng was clearly helping the old man by doing this.
Ten million Soul Stones was naturally nothing to the eldest princess of the Fire Phoenix Clan, but what was precious was her kindness.
"Miss, you can't, you can't …"
The old man came back to his senses and hurriedly looked at Princess Huofeng. He said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss, but I can't accept these Soul Stones because I don't deserve them."
"Old man, are you stupid? Someone gave you Soul Stones and you didn't want them. Why are you pretending to be virtuous? "
The two young men sneered.
The old man said angrily, "I'm not pretending to be virtuous. I'm earning money with my conscience."
"Can your conscience feed you?"
The two young men smiled disdainfully and looked at Princess Huofeng. They stretched out their hands and said, "He owes us ten million. Just give it to us!"
Princess Huofeng glanced at the two and then looked at Daifuku. "Give it to them."
"Yes."
Daifuku nodded and was about to take out the Soul Stones from his Interspatial Ring.
But at this moment.
The White-eyed Wolf jumped down from Qin Feiyang's shoulder and stopped Daifuku.
"Hmm?"
Daifuku looked at the White-eyed Wolf suspiciously.
The White-eyed Wolf didn't explain. It looked at the two young men and then at the old man.
Originally, it didn't intend to pay attention to them. But when it heard the old man say that he was earning money with his conscience, it couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Because not everyone could say something like that.
So its intuition told it that there was something wrong with this matter.
The White-eyed Wolf looked at the two young men and asked, "How did he owe you ten million Soul Stones?"
"Are you asking us?"
The two young men were stunned.
"Otherwise?"
The White-eyed Wolf picked its nose and said.
"Who are you? How dare you question us? "
"Do you know what this is?"
The two young men pointed at the word "Heaven" on their chests and shouted.
"Yes."
"It's the symbol of the Heavenly Palace!"
The White-eyed Wolf nodded.
"Then how dare you meddle in our business? If you don't want to die, scram! "
The two young men's eyes flashed with killing intent.
The White-eyed Wolf raised its eyebrows. How dare they ask it to scram? They must be tired of living!
"Actually, I'm quite curious too."
"He's just an ordinary old man. How did he owe you ten million Soul Stones?"
Qin Feiyang stood out and asked with a smile.
"There are so many nosy people nowadays."
"Okay, I'll tell you."
"Three months ago, his grandson injured us, so he has to compensate us."
"His grandson can't be found now, so of course we have to ask him for it."
The two young men sneered.
Hearing this, the old man clenched his fists as if he had something to complain about, but he didn't dare to say it.
"I see!"
Qin Feiyang suddenly understood. After thinking for a while, he asked in confusion, "But you're disciples of the Heavenly Palace, and your cultivation is quite good. Both of you are half-step Imperishable Realm. Is his grandson stronger than you?"
"Hmph!"
"His grandson is also a disciple of the Heavenly Palace."
"Of course he's no match for us with real swords and spears, but his grandson is scheming behind our backs."
The two young men snorted.
Qin Feiyang nodded in realization and said with a smile, "Then we do have to compensate."
"It's not like that …"
The old man seemed to be unable to suppress the anger in his heart and roared with a hoarse voice.
"Hmm?"
Qin Feiyang looked at the old man suspiciously.
The old man wanted to say something but stopped, looking at the two young men with fear.
Princess Huofeng frowned and said to the old man, "Old man, if you're really wronged, you can say it out and let everyone judge."
"That's right."
"Justice is in people's hearts. As long as what you say is true, I believe there will be people who will help you get an explanation."
Pyrotechnic Glow also nodded.
The old man looked at the siblings and pointed at the two young men. He gritted his teeth and said, "They're all slandering me. My grandson never attacked them. They were the ones who attacked my grandson, and my grandson seriously injured one of them."
"Hmm?"
Qin Feiyang and the others looked at each other. There really was an injustice.
"Old man, what nonsense are you talking about?"
The two young men were furious and glared at the old man.
"I'm not talking nonsense."
The old man angrily roared. Looking at Qin Feiyang and the crowd surrounding the entrance, he painfully said, "Three months ago, my grandson was training outside and inadvertently found a treasure chest. It was originally a very happy thing, but in the end, he was discovered by them and they joined forces to sneak attack my grandson …"
From the old man's explanation, Qin Feiyang and the others finally understood that it was these two people who were tempted by the wealth and sneak attacked the old man's grandson. However, the old man's grandson was very vigilant and was also a half-step Undead Realm cultivator. Therefore, even though he was heavily injured, he was still lucky enough to escape.
But the two young men were worried that the old man's grandson would take revenge on them, so they chased the old man's grandson and killed him.
After that.
The two young men didn't feel guilty. Instead, they joined forces and came to blackmail the old man.
The old man was alone and didn't have a good cultivation. Plus, the two young men threatened him, so he had to give in.
Also.
The old man went to the Sky Palace and asked the higher-ups for help.
But it was useless. The two young men insisted that the old man's grandson attacked them first, so they had to kill him.
Because there was no third person at the scene, no one could prove it. So the higher-ups of the Sky Palace ignored the old man's request.
And because there was no evidence, the two young men became more and more arrogant in their blackmail.
