"Mister Niu, let me finish," Sikong Jue called out again.
Yue Qianchou held seven heads in his left hand and two heads in his right hand as he slowly turned around. "What do you mean?"
"To be honest, everyone in the cultivation world knows that Mister Niu likes spirit stones …" Before Sikong Jue could finish, Yue Qianchou rolled his eyes and interrupted him. "Then find a cultivator who doesn't like spirit stones for me to see."
"Mister, you misunderstood me," Sikong Jue said solemnly. "There is one thing I know. With Mister's cultivation and character, there is no need for you to lie. Since Mister said that my disciple, Nie Sheng, agreed to the 100 million bounty, then it must be true. "It sounded a little self-justifying, but it was the truth.
"Of course it's true." Yue Qianchou nodded sincerely and waited for him to continue.
Hearing this, Sikong Jue's expression twitched. He really couldn't hold it in anymore, but he had to endure it. He gritted his teeth and continued, "It's still the same thing. The World Commerce's reputation is the most important. Since my disciple agreed to the 100 million bounty, as his Master, I have to honor it."
Everyone was in an uproar again. They thought that they had a chance to get ten Limit Breaking Pills for free, and their blood was boiling. However, they were doused with a bucket of cold water. As long as one wasn't a fool, they could tell what Sikong Jue meant. He was going to take the 100 million bounty for these two heads.
Mu Lianqiu looked around unfriendly, and the uproar immediately disappeared.
"That's not very good, right?!" Yue Qianchou looked at everyone and muttered, "I just said that I would use 20 Limit Breaking Pills to ask everyone about the origins of these two people."
Keep pretending! Sikong Jue resisted the urge to flare up again. He let out a breath and said, "I believe that it is best to leave the investigation of these two people to the World Commerce."
"That's true. The World Commerce has branches in various countries, so it is indeed very suitable to do this. However … "Yue Qianchou said to everyone," I still have to ask everyone's opinion in case someone says that I'm going back on my word. What does everyone think? "
Everyone naturally hoped that Niu Youde would continue to offer the Restriction Breaking Pill as a reward. Handing over the head to Sikong Jue wouldn't give them any benefits. But who would dare to go against Sikong Jue?
He really wanted both money and face! Sikong Jue was so angry that he was laughing in his stomach.
However, it couldn't be helped. His two disciples were well-known figures in the Cultivation World. Once they showed their faces, they would definitely be recognized by a lot of people. Niu Youde had gotten 300 million from him, and 200 million of it was the deposit to join the World Chamber of Commerce. Once he found an excuse, he would really lose both the person and the money.
Furthermore, this madman dared to blatantly deceive the various countries. Was there anything he wouldn't do? Who would dare to do this without some backing? In short, the World Commerce Chamber of Commerce did not dare to do what he did. If this madman used this as an excuse to start a fight with the World Commerce Association, who knew what the result would be. We can't lose the big for the small!
Sikong Jue was rather suspicious. He didn't know if the World Commerce Chamber was right or wrong to offend this fellow, but he just felt that something was wrong.
"Everyone!" Sikong Jue cupped his hands at the surrounding cultivators and said, "This matter is not that Mr. Niu went back on his words. It's just that this ambush was targeted at our World Commerce Chamber. Our World Commerce Chamber has the responsibility to investigate who is going against us. Please give me, Sikong Jue, some face and don't make things difficult for Mr. Niu. "
Why would I be in a difficult situation? Wouldn't it have been over if I had paid earlier? Why did I have to sell my face!? Yue Qianchou also looked at everyone apologetically.
"We don't dare … We don't dare … We should … should …" The group of people had no choice but to give in. If they didn't give Sikong Jue face, someone would probably take care of them the moment they left. However, everyone more or less sensed that something was wrong, but they couldn't tell what was wrong.
Mu Lianqiu bit her lips lightly, and her face was slightly pale. Sikong Jue stared at Yue Qianchou, and there was something in his eyes … Niu Youde, everyone knows that I've already done this. What else do you have to say?
Yue Qianchou wanted to laugh, but he couldn't hold it in. Thus, he smiled calmly and said, "Since you know that I like money, then I won't put on an act anymore. Shouldn't you give me the 100 million reward first before we talk? "
Facing a Soul Formation expert, he still felt a little guilty. Right now, he believed in getting the money first. If anything happened … he was quite confident in his ability to escape.
Everyone looked at each other and was really speechless at this Niu Youde.
Sikong Jue was so angry that he couldn't say anything. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his tone and give the other party an excuse. He stared at Niu Youde in silence for a while, then he took out a storage bag from his waist and threw it over without saying anything.
Yue Qianchou's eyes lit up, and he reacted quickly by throwing the two heads in his right hand over as well. He caught the storage bag with his free hand and checked it. After realizing that the number was not bad, he put it away.
Mu Lianqiu teleported in front of her master and caught the two heads before moving to the side. After taking a look and confirming that it was her junior brother, she nodded at her master with trembling lips.
Sikong Jue stared at Yue Qianchou like a hawk and said slowly, "Mister, how is my disciple, Nie Sheng? Why isn't he back yet? " He only had two guesses about Nie Sheng's outcome. Either he was killed by Niu Youde, or he was captured by Niu Youde.
"Sigh!" Yue Qianchou shook his head and let out a long sigh. He picked up the seven heads in his left hand and pulled them out with his right hand before throwing one over.
Everyone was speechless. Even though they had cultivated for a long time, they had never seen someone throwing heads like this.
Sikong Jue grabbed Nie Sheng's head with one hand, and his long hair fluttered without any wind, causing Nie Sheng's face to be clearly visible.
"Second Senior Brother!" Mu Lianqiu couldn't help but call out.
"Niu Youde, you better give me an explanation!" Sikong Jue yelled. He couldn't hold back his killing intent anymore and burst out. The entire place was filled with killing intent, which scared the surrounding people. A Soul Formation Stage expert was showing his prowess.
Yue Qianchou almost lost his footing due to the killing intent. Although he managed to stabilize himself, he felt that he couldn't breathe. His heart was gradually filled with anger!
Using your power to suppress others? I want to see whether your Early Stage Soul Formation aura is stronger, or my Netherworld Ghost Flame aura is stronger! Yue Qianchou squinted his eyes, and a horrifying aura surged out from his body, covering Sikong Jue like a raging wave.
The temperature of the entire place instantly dropped to freezing point. It was clearly a sunny day, but there was a dense fog. Coldness, despair, death, and a series of extremely negative emotions filled the place …
Sikong Jue, who was the main target of the horrifying aura, widened his eyes in horror. He actually trembled and took a step back. How could he have the energy to maintain his explosive aura? He was using all his strength to defend against the deathly aura that was devouring his life force.
Mu Lianqiu, who was too close to his master, was immediately implicated. His body trembled uncontrollably, and the two heads in his hands fell to the ground.
The most unlucky ones were the surrounding cultivators. Although they weren't at the center of the Netherworld Ghost Flame aura, it was the first time Yue Qianchou had used the aura of the ghost flame on a Soul Formation Stage cultivator. He wasn't confident, so his attack wasn't light.
The cultivators' cultivation was far inferior to Mu Lianqiu's, let alone Sikong Jue's. At the very least, no one present had the cultivation of the final stage of the Tribulation Passing Stage. How could they withstand it? All of them immediately fainted and fell to the ground. No one was spared.
The shop assistants in the row of shops had already fallen to the ground. The shopkeepers' cultivation wasn't bad, but they were all leaning on the counter for support as they looked over in fear. Niu Youde was surrounded by deathly aura as if he had just walked out from the netherworld.
Hehe! When Yue Qianchou saw that Sikong Jue was actually forced to take a step back by his aura of the ghost flame, he instantly felt confident. He snorted and said, "Sikong Jue, how dare you yell at me. Are you tired of living?"
Glancing at Sikong Jue's storage bag, he really wanted to use the Star Absorbing Technique to kill Sikong Jue and reap a sum of money. However, he held back after thinking about it.
Sikong Jue looked at the large group of cultivators that had fallen to the ground. The shock in his heart was indescribable. At least, his master definitely couldn't suppress him to this extent with just his aura. If Niu Youde wanted to kill him now, it would be as easy as flipping his hand!
So terrifying, such a terrifying aura! Just how high is this Niu Youde's cultivation? Sikong Jue calmed himself down and looked at Mu Lianqiu, who was on the verge of collapsing. He quickly said, "Mr. Niu, please don't misunderstand. I was being rude. We can talk things over. Please calm down for now. My disciple can't take your anger anymore!"
"Hmph!" Yue Qianchou snorted, and the eerie aura in the area instantly retracted into his body. The surroundings returned to being sunny under the blazing sun.
Plop. Without that terrifying aura, Mu Lianqiu slumped to the ground. His face was pale as he gasped for breath under the sunlight. The shopkeepers in the shops also softened.
At this moment, only Yue Qianchou and Sikong Jue were still standing. The latter was indeed a Soul Formation expert. With his powerful cultivation, he quickly forced out the deathly aura in his body. Under the sunlight, it dissipated like ashes. Although he had recovered, he still looked at Yue Qianchou with lingering fear. This person was too terrifying!
Yue Qianchou raised his hand and threw the six heads to Sikong Jue's feet. Then, he spread his arms and a series of groans could be heard. Gray mist rose from the bodies of the cultivators that were lying on the ground and spiraled into Yue Qianchou's body.
Afterward, the group of people slowly woke up and struggled to get up while panting. All of them looked at Yue Qianchou in fear.
