His face was gloomy, and his eyes flickered. He was about to deny it, but Fang Yuan had already seen through his plan.
"Don't try to cover it up, it's useless. The spirit spring is drying up, and the production of Yuan stone will definitely decrease. You Bai clan covered it up well, and used your treasury or trade to make up for this shortcoming. But there are definitely traces of this, and as long as someone keeps investigating, they will be able to find out, "Fang Yuan said calmly.
Bai Feng clenched his fists, and glared fiercely at Fang Yuan, wishing he could skin him alive.
Seeing his elder's expression, even the stupidest person would know the truth.
"Spirit spring, our clan's spirit spring is drying up?" Bai Lian was scared out of her wits, and fell on the chair.
Bai Zhan Lie pursed his lips, and fell into silence.
The others also did not speak, and were both shocked and terrified. The atmosphere in the secret room was extremely oppressive.
"Hehehe." Fang Yuan laughed lightly, "Your Bai clan is really in danger. The spirit spring is drying up, and if you can't find a new spirit spring, even the strongest clan will fall apart. Now that you obtained the White Bones inheritance, the surrounding forces are all jealous. Say, if I spread this secret information, what will happen? "
"No!" Bai Lian's face paled, and she hurriedly said.
The others also thought of the severity of the situation, and their expressions became extremely serious.
Now that Bai clan obtained the White Bones inheritance, their strength increased, and they gained this advantage, the surrounding great clans were all watching covetously, and with hidden fear.
If the news of the spirit spring was leaked, Bai clan would be exposed, and become a paper tiger, and the surrounding forces would definitely make a move!
They definitely did not want to see Bai clan survive this crisis, obtain the White Bones inheritance, and increase their strength, surpassing them.
Therefore, they must keep this information secret!
Everyone from Bai clan was awakened by Fang Yuan, and they all understood. Bai Zhan Lie and the others stared at Fang Yuan with even more ferocity, and their killing intent boiled.
"Want to kill me?" Fang Yuan laughed coldly, and shook his finger, "Since I met you alone, I naturally made full preparations. To be honest, if you didn't come to find me, I would have gone to find you. "
These words were not without reason. Everyone had no choice but to suppress their killing intent and retract the ominous glint in their eyes.
"Alright, let's get down to business." The corners of Fang Yuan's lips curled up as he adjusted his sitting posture.
He pressed his hand down and said, "Sit down, let's talk."
"Talk about what? What's there to talk about with you? Humph! "Bai Feng's face was as gloomy as water, but even though he said that, he still sat down.
The others hesitated for a moment before sitting down as well.
The tense scene of swords drawn and bows drawn suddenly eased a little.
"Of course it's about the hush money. Was it easy for me to lead you here? Wasting my time and energy, of course you have to compensate me! Yuan stone, I want Yuan stone. Give me three million Yuan stone, and I promise you that I won't tell anyone about this. "
Fang Yuan's words made everyone jump again.
"How dare you threaten us!"
"You killed two of our young clan leaders. How dare you ask for the Yuan stone?!"
"Fangzheng, don't go too far. If worst comes to worst, I'll risk my life and die with you!! "
Everyone roared in unison.
"Hahaha." Fang Yuan threw his head back and laughed. He stood up and stared at everyone with his fierce eyes.
"That's right, I'm threatening you! If you don't agree, I'll leak this news. What, you want to die with me? Humph, believe it or not, even if I die, this news will still be leaked. At that time, you'll be the sinners of the clan. Because you didn't agree to my request, the clan will be attacked by other forces! "
"You, you, you …" Elder Bai Feng was so angry that he pointed at Fang Yuan but couldn't say a word.
The others glared angrily and gritted their teeth, but they didn't make a move.
"You what you?" Fang Yuan sneered at Bai Feng, his tone full of disdain, "What can you do to me? Kill me? I have the Redbud Token, try and touch me. I know you're all good men and not afraid of death. But the clan is the most important. If your family, your friends, die, it's all because of you! "
Everyone from Bai clan clenched their fists and froze in place.
"Ah — —!" Bai Zhan Lie suddenly raised his head and roared. He raised his fist and punched down.
Under his angry punch, the entire table was smashed and the dishes scattered all over the floor.
He hated it!
His grandfather Bai Zhan Wen died because of Fang and Bai. This enmity was irreconcilable!
Because of this, he joined the pursuit team, ran around, and finally found the murderer.
But, the enemy was clearly in front of him, but he couldn't make a move! Fang Yuan was clearly in front of him, but he couldn't take revenge!
Not only could he not take revenge, he had to be threatened by Fang Yuan.
The anger in his chest burned fiercely, forming a sea of fire that burned his heart and lungs. But he couldn't make a move. If he did, the consequences would be unthinkable. His own life was a small matter, but the entire clan would suffer because of this!!
"Don't be angry. Actually, I am also a victim in this entire matter. "Fang Yuan's tone softened as he sighed.
"Think about it, Bai Gu inheritance was originally mine, but it was snatched away by your Bai clan. Your Bai clan chased after me and Bai Ning Bing, we were forced to kill Bai Hua and Bai Sheng in order to escape. Afterwards, I was heavily injured and fell on Zi You mountain, narrowly escaping death. Do you think it's easy for me? "
"Your Bai clan is powerful, I can't afford to offend you. I could only hide in Shang clan city, but you still didn't let me go. Tell me, what can I do? I am not an unreasonable person, three million Yuan stone, no less. I am very sincere, this secret is only known by a few people, it has not been leaked. For the sake of your Bai clan, I even sent the Tie clan's people away. "
Fang Yuan's expression was sincere.
"Three million Yuan stone, you really know how to extort!"
"Fangzheng, in all honesty, how has our Bai clan treated you! We treated you well, but what's the result? You repaid our kindness with enmity! "
"My clan's two young clan leaders died in your hands, my clan's elder Bai Zhan Wen died because of you. And many of our clansmen, in order to protect you on Bai Gu mountain, we lost many experts, and many are heavily injured! "
Bai clan's people all had different expressions. Some were furious, some were sneering, some were crying, but they all had one similarity, that was deep hatred towards Fang Yuan!
Fang Yuan's expression changed as he sneered: "It seems you still don't understand the situation, I gave you face, but you don't want it? Very good. "
Fang Yuan stood up and was about to leave.
Bai clan panicked.
"Wait a moment." Bai Feng anxiously took a step forward and blocked Fang Yuan.
"I will tell you the truth, I am going to sell this information now. I believe that Shang clan city's Wind Rain Manor will have a good price. What kind of price do you think they will give me? "Fang Yuan laughed sinisterly.
"Fangzheng, don't go too far!" Bai Zhan Lie roared as he quickly walked in front of Fang Yuan, glaring fiercely.
Fang Yuan said lightly: "You want to fight? You want to put your clan in danger? "
Bai Zhan Lie's aura was greatly affected, his gaze dazed.
Slap!
Fang Yuan used this chance to slap him. He used a lot of strength, with just a little bit of force, he made the hot-blooded Bai Zhan Lie retreat six steps.
"What do you want?!" Bai clan's people were enraged, surrounding him.
"You want to become the sinners of your clans?" Fang Yuan snorted, his words were like ice, extinguishing most of the Bai clan's impulses.
"You don't know what's good for you." Fang Yuan pointed at Bai Zhan Lie, "If I don't teach you a lesson, you will really think you are the king."
Fang Yuan mercilessly scolded Bai Zhan Lie in front of the Bai clan's people.
Then, he looked at the crowd: "You are all idiots! I want your Bai clan to suffer with just a few words from me! A wise man submits to circumstances, can't you see the current situation clearly? If you want to fight, then fight. Come, even if I die here, having your Bai clan accompany me in death is already good enough. "
Fang Yuan was heavily surrounded, but his attitude was still very arrogant.
Instead, the Bai clan's people who had the advantage in numbers gave up, gritting their teeth and clenching their fists helplessly.
Bai Zhan Lie covered his swollen face, his eyes red and bloodshot. This humiliation made the anger in his heart burn to the nine heavens. He tried his best to maintain the last bit of reason in his mind, the veins on his head popping.
The clan was their Achilles' heel. Fang Yuan grasped this point, and displayed an imposing manner that was not afraid of death, causing the Bai clan to be at a loss, allowing Fang Yuan to do as he pleased.
"I will give you thirty breaths of time to consider." Fang Yuan said again.
The Bai clan's people instantly fell into a dilemma.
They really did not want to lower their heads to the murderer, Fang Yuan. However, if they did not lower their heads, the clan would be in danger.
Everyone was confused, and could not help but focus their gaze on Elder Bai Feng's body.
Bai Feng's fists were tightly clenched, then slowly loosened, then immediately tightened again, then loosened his five fingers after a moment.
This repeated cycle revealed the conflict in his heart.
Thirty breaths of time had long passed, but Fang Yuan seemed to have forgotten about it.
Bai Feng's temperament was impatient. After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, he finally opened his mouth and broke the long silence.
"Three million … is too much, we cannot agree to this condition of yours. What's more, we do not have that much money on us! "His voice was extremely hoarse, like an unlucky person dying of thirst in the desert.
After saying this, his fists loosened, no longer having the strength to clench them.
For the clan, he had no choice but to prioritize the overall situation. Even if he wanted to cut Fang Yuan into eight pieces, he still chose to temporarily lower his head.
When the others heard Bai Feng's words, they all relaxed, and their boiling killing intent towards Fang Yuan settled down, becoming even deeper and thicker.
Fang Yuan smiled: "Three million, I'm not asking you to pay it all in one go. Take your time, pay five hundred thousand this time. "
"Five hundred thousand? How can we carry so many Yuan stone with us?! "Bai Feng shouted.
