44: Bandung Chamber of Commerce backs down

"I got excited and forgot for a moment, hahaha!"

The few of them went to the cloud ship's Advanced restaurant, ordered a lot of expensive beast meat, and had a big feast.

Inside a meeting room on the cloud ship.

Wan Ge, a core member of the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce, said to Wan Qing, the woman who was almost decapitated earlier, "Xiao Qing, you were too impulsive in handling the issue this time. These greenhorns who have just left home won't fear you just because of your status. If I had been a step late, you would have been decapitated by him."

Wan Qing said, "At the time, I saw the clothes they were wearing and thought they were just from a small Sect called the Tianyang Sect. I didn't expect those brats to have such strong power."

"They aren't from the Tianyang Sect. They must have been hired at a high price to represent the Tianyang Sect in the Lower Profound Domain Tournament. Tianyang Sect Disciples couldn't possibly have such strength. At their age, every one of them is stronger than me; their background is definitely not simple."

"But it's a hundred thousand taels! Are we just going to give it to them for nothing?"

"Hehe! The money of my Wanlong Chamber of Commerce isn't that easy to take. Go notify Elder Zhang and have him take action!"

Wan Qing was instantly overjoyed. "Good! Elder Zhang is about to have a Breakthrough into the Heavenly Profound Realm. This time, those people will definitely pay the price."

After finishing their feast, Jiang Ye and the other two did not return to the Tianyang Sect's rest area, worried about causing them trouble. Instead, they walked around outside the large cloud ship.

At this time, Wan Qing brought their Consecrated Elder and a group of people to surround them.

Wan Qing said, "You lowly commoners! Let's see if you can still jump around this time!"

Jiang Ye said, "It seems you have many lives! One just died, and you're out here acting up again."

Shi Feng said, "Wait, those matters earlier had nothing to do with us; Guan Teng made us do it. The hundred thousand taels in banknotes are also in his hands. We don't want to cause trouble, but if you insist on forcing our hand..."

Boom!! Shi Feng suddenly erupted with the Qi of the ninth stage of the Earth Profound Realm, pressing down on them and giving them a fright. To reach such a Realm at this age, even Elder Zhang was quite shocked.

Wan Qing also started trembling slightly from fear. "Elder... Elder Zhang..."

Elder Zhang frowned. If they had fought just now, they would surely have been crippled or even killed by these people working together. Thus, he said, "Third Young Miss, since the culprit is someone else, then let's find that person."

So Wan Qing and the others left. Jiang Ye and Shi Bao both looked at Shi Feng and said, "Xiao Feng, not bad! You settled the trouble just like that and pushed it onto that guy."

"Since he took the money, we can't be the ones bearing all the danger, hehe!"

Jiang Ye laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Then we can go back and rest, and let that guy bear it himself. The Sect Master was right; as long as you have strength, anything can be negotiated. Otherwise, they wouldn't have let us off so easily just now."

Just like that, the three returned to the Tianyang Sect's rest area, while on the other side, Guan Teng's Family was about to suffer. After some back and forth, Guan Teng took out ten thousand taels in banknotes and confessed the truth.

But the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce didn't buy it, insisting that he was the instigator and demanding the Guan Family compensate for all losses, or else they would take action against them.

In the end, the Guan Family had to compromise, making up the hundred thousand taels on the spot and writing an IOU for another hundred thousand taels before the matter was settled.

Guan Teng said through gritted teeth, "Dammit! I've been played by those people."

The Guan Family Elder said, "Sigh, you fool! This is a case of being penny-wise and pound-foolish. Use your brain in the future. Is the Wanlong Chamber of Commerce's money that easy to take? Hurry up and find those people!"
