"Yin Baikang has many children and grandchildren. Do you think he would fork out two hundred million high-grade spirit stones for a commoner's grandson?" Yan Ji shook his head. "The kidnapper's asking price is too high. He's demanding an exorbitant price!"
"Who told Yin Baikang's Tianxia Chamber of Commerce to be so rich? If we don't demand an exorbitant price from him, who should we target?" Shu Xin covered her mouth and laughed. "This isn't a question of how much a grandson is worth. The key is that with so many children and grandchildren watching him, Yin Baikang has no choice but to pay."
The few of them thought of Yin Baikang, a famous old stallion in the cultivation world, and couldn't help but laugh … Pu Taidong suddenly waved his hand. "I think! We shouldn't be the only ones who know about this. Since we want to watch the show, let's make it bigger. Let the entire cultivation world see if Yin Baikang, that old fox, is willing to fork out this sum of money. Whenever I think of this old fox scheming against others, I get annoyed. I have to publicize it for him. "
"That's not a good idea!" Huo Zongming hesitated. "When the time comes, my Dayan Nation will become the target of public criticism. Yin Baikang will inevitably come looking for me to punish me."
"You worry too much. When the time comes, you can just push the blame away and deny it. Just say that the news might be from the kidnappers … This is a bit of a mouthful. Kidnappers appearing in the cultivation world? Just say that it was spread by the kidnappers. I guarantee that Yin Baikang won't be able to confirm that it was you. " Pu Taidong waved his hand at the few of them. "The deadline given by the kidnappers is three days. Everyone, hurry up and spread the news. Otherwise, you won't be able to make it in time."
"Hehe!" The few of them laughed in unison. Huo Zongming also smiled and nodded.
In Bi Wan Nation's embassy, Furong and Wen Qing couldn't hold it in any longer and ran out to go shopping. Yue Qianchou didn't stop them. He believed that as long as they didn't cause any trouble, no one would be able to tell that Furong was a cultivator after taking the Aura Concealing Pill.
Yue Qianchou was still lying on the swing with his eyes closed. The Tianxia Chamber of Commerce mentioned in the jade archive in his hand had piqued his interest. The World Chamber of Commerce was an organization that specialized in doing business in the Cultivation World. Its headquarters was located in Tuan Country, which was similar to the Hundred Flowers Valley in the Cultivation World of China. It was the largest trading place in the Cultivation World of various countries.
However, it was different from the Hundred Flowers Valley. Not only did it have a fixed business, but it also traded with other countries. It could also be said that they would do whatever it took to make money. Lu Wanqian had been to Cornucopia a few times. Cornucopia was the headquarters of the World Commerce Association. The jade archive recorded the unusually flourishing trade scene in Cornucopia. It was far livelier than the one in the Hundred Flowers Valley.
Here, the Cultivation World of various countries was not like the Cultivation World of China, which was secluded and did not interact with the outside world. They traded freely, and the Cornucopia was the place where they traded the most.
Coincidentally, this World Commerce Chamber belonged to Yin Baikang, so some people said that he was the richest person in the entire cultivation world.
"Yin Baikang, the richest man in the Cultivation World!" Yue Qianchou smacked his lips twice. He felt like drooling. He couldn't help but think of all the ways to make money from his previous life. He had already made up his mind. After he settled the matters here, he would definitely go to the most prosperous Cornucopia in the Cultivation World.
While he was lying on the swing, drooling, he didn't know that his actions had already become the biggest scandal in the Cultivation World under the influence of some people with ulterior motives … Yin Baikang, the grandson of a late-stage Divine Transformation expert, had been kidnapped. The kidnappers demanded two hundred million high-grade spirit stones as ransom.
Even Jing Yuankong, who was flying at high speed in the sky, would not have thought that someone would use the method of communication to spread the news in the jade archive he had on him to the various countries. Even the location to hand over the spirit stones was clearly stated.
On top of Cornucopia's God of Wealth Peak, Yin Baikang suddenly and inexplicably received many messages from his old friends. They were all asking about his grandson's kidnapping and the ransom demanded by the kidnappers. Yin Baikang was completely confused by the questions. He only knew that something had happened to his grandson. Whether or not he had been kidnapped, he didn't know either. He had even mentally prepared himself for the worst.
At the same time, even if everyone was asking the truth, how could others have known about it before the kidnappers had even demanded ransom from him? Was there such a thing as a kidnapper?
On top of God of Wealth Peak, a black-robed Yin Baikang stood alone under a pine tree. He looked at the billowing sea of clouds in front of him with a gloomy expression. After a while, he turned his head and saw a black dot flying towards him at high speed. In the blink of an eye, the black dot landed in front of him and bowed. It was his second disciple, Jing Yuankong.
"Yuankong, you're back so soon. Did you find out anything?" Yin Baikang's expression relaxed a little as he asked.
Jing Yuankong paused for a moment. He didn't know what to say about this matter. Yin Baikang immediately felt that something was wrong. He asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"
"Master, Wufeng, he … he's been kidnapped. Kidnapped …" Jing Yuankong suddenly felt that the word 'kidnapper' was a little funny. To think that there would be kidnappers in the cultivation world. However, he still braced himself and said, "The kidnappers demanded two hundred million high-grade spirit stones as ransom."
Yin Baikang's face twitched as he said, "So it's true! I thought that bunch of old fools were playing a joke on me. "
"What? Master, you already know about it? "Jing Yuankong was stunned." That's impossible! When Huo Zongming's disciple received the jade archive from the kidnappers, he immediately sent it to Huo Zongming. After that, I took the jade archive and rushed back immediately … Could it be that Huo Zongming spread the news on purpose to make fun of Master? "
"No, I know Huo Zongming's character very well. He wouldn't dare to do such a thing. Looks like the person who kidnapped Wufeng intentionally spread the news. He wanted to make fun of me. Who is this person? He's so unscrupulous! "Yin Baikang thought for a moment, then stretched out his hand and asked," What's written on the jade archive? Hand it over and let me have a look. "
"Uh …" Jing Yuankong suddenly remembered that the words on the jade archive were too provocative. It really wasn't suitable for his Master to read. However, he didn't dare to refuse, so he reminded, "Master, it's best if you don't read it. What's written on it isn't pleasant to hear. In short, they're asking for two hundred million high-grade spirit stones in exchange for Wufeng's return. If they can't get the spirit stones, they'll do something detrimental to Master. "
"I'd like to see who has the guts to do something detrimental to me." Yin Baikang stretched out his hand again and said in a deep voice, "Hand it over!"
Jing Yuankong knew that he couldn't refuse anymore. When he took out the jade archive and handed it over, he was already prepared to bear the brunt of Yin Baikang's wrath.
Yin Baikang took the jade archive and infused it with his divine sense. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still greatly stimulated by what he read. "Hehe!" Sinister laughter escaped from his mouth as the jade archive in his hand soundlessly turned into dust in an instant.
A strong wind blew across the mountaintop. Gradually, not even the slightest rustling could be felt. In the blink of an eye, it was eerily quiet. Even the air seemed to have frozen. A terrifying aura slowly spread across the mountaintop. Even Jing Yuankong felt a little overwhelmed as he secretly tried to resist it.
To Jing Yuankong's surprise, he had underestimated his Master's shrewdness. His Master didn't fly into a rage. Not long after, the mountaintop returned to its original state.
"Yuankong, what do you think of this?" Yin Baikang's heart was burning with rage. However, he calmly looked at the rumbling sea of clouds and asked.
Jing Yuankong replied awkwardly, "Master, I really can't think of anyone in the cultivation world who would dare to do such a thing to you. If there's anyone, I can only think of that person in the Demon's Domain. "
"Are you talking about Bi Changchun?" Yin Baikang's pupils shrank as he turned around and asked.
Then, he shook his head and denied himself, "No, no, no. I would believe anyone. It's definitely impossible to say that it was Bi Changchun. You've seen his strength in the East Sea. His cultivation is close to that of a half-immortal. If he really wanted to come to my God of Fortune Peak and take away 200 million high-grade spirit stones, it would be as easy as pie. Who could stop him? Besides, he wouldn't stoop to such a thing. "
After a pause, he added, "I do hope that he was the one who did it. Forget 200 million high-grade spirit stones, I'd even give him a billion. Most importantly, even if I delivered myself to him, he might not even want it! He's a god! What a pity. "
"Master," Jing Yuankong frowned and said, "What do you think we should do? Are we really going to use spirit stones to ransom him? "
Yin Baikang did not reply to his disciple. Instead, he asked, "That … that kidnapper said he wanted my name to be immortalized. If I don't use spirit stones to exchange for Wufeng's return, what method do you think he'll use to make my name immortalized? "
"This … this disciple doesn't know either. Most importantly, we're in the open while they're in the dark. We don't even know who it is. There's really no way to guard against it, "Jing Yuankong said with a bitter smile. He thought to himself that if a person who could do such a thing really did something shameless, there were many ways to make his name immortalized. It was impossible to guard against it!
"Hmph!" Yin Baikang sneered, "I'll give you the spirit stones. I want to see who this person is. I want to see if he has the ability to take the spirit stones from me."
Jing Yuankong cupped his hands and said, "Master, don't worry. Leave this matter to me. I'll definitely find that person."
"No!" Yin Baikang waved his hand and said, "Since this person dares to provoke me, I'm afraid you can't handle him. I'll make a trip personally and deal with this person."
"Ah!" Jing Yuankong hurriedly persuaded, "There's no need to trouble Master. If Master is worried about me going alone, let Eldest Senior Brother go with me …"
"Say no more. I've made up my mind. This matter can only succeed. I can't let the Cultivation World laugh at me. It's safer for me to make a trip personally. You and your Senior Brother just watch over this place. "As soon as Yin Baikang finished speaking, his figure turned into a series of afterimages and disappeared into the sea of clouds …
Actually, it wasn't just Yin Baikang. Almost half of the top experts in the Cultivation World were rushing towards Dayang City. Apart from watching the show, the most important thing was to see who dared to kidnap Yin Baikang's grandson. Now that such a big thing had happened, there might be another change in the Cultivation World. The war over there was not over yet! They had to be concerned.
Although Yue Qianchou's matter was big, he only wanted to quietly make a fortune. In his calculations, he believed that Yin Baikang would not reveal such a shameful matter. However, he didn't know that not only had the matter been leaked, but the entire Cultivation World knew about it. Dayang City of Dayang Kingdom was about to become a place of great turmoil.
Wu Sihai definitely didn't know about this. If Wu Sihai knew, he wouldn't be surprised. No matter where that kid went, that place wouldn't have peace. The key was that this kid couldn't settle down and was addicted to causing trouble …
