“It’s just a door. How much does it cost if I give you a new one?” A man spoke without concern.
Feng Jiu’s lips curved up as she heard his remark. “Not much. All of you three clans will compensate me for one million gold coins each!”
At this, those men gasped. “It’s a robbery! A million gold coins each? Even if your door is inlaid with gold, it wouldn’t have cost so much!”
“What you said is wrong. One million gold coins is really inexpensive. “Feng Jiu walked slowly, her eyes flitted over them. “This door is not worth a lot, but my face is precious. You have offended me by clamouring, kicking and slamming my door. Do you know what is the price of offending a strong exponent?”
With this, the mighty pressure on her body struck out in a flash and enveloped those thirty odd people, making them fall to their knees with a plop and their faces pale and terrified.
“By offending a strong exponent, I can put all of you to death!”
With ferocity in her cold voice, she paused her step and took a glance at them. “So, this one million is not just for this door, rather, it’s for buying your lives.”
“If you think it’s too much and you’re unwilling, that’s all right. So long as I give the command, your blood will be spilled immediately. If you die, this one million won’t matter.”
Her voice was soft but it spread to the bottom of their hearts like the twelfth month’s icy wind, making them s.h.i.+ver unconsciously. At this moment, they regretted it to death.
If they knew it early on, they wouldn’t have clamoured and slammed the door. Now, since Feng Jiu appeared, instead of gaining an advantage, they ended worse off. A million gold coins, that’s a lot of money to them!
“Du Fan, collect their money. If you don’t get all the money before sunset, there’s no need for these people to be alive.” Feng Jiu told Du Fan.
“Yes.” Du Fan answered.
“Leng Shuang, come with me!” She spoke and kept walking forward while Leng Shuang followed quietly behind.
When she arrived at the Heavenly Pill Tower, Leng Hua and others saw Feng Jiu and welcomed her. “Master!”
On the top floor, Fire Phoenix turned into a small bird, clapped its wings and flew to Feng Jiu’s shoulder. “Master, you are back!”
“I’m back.” She whispered and looked at the crowd with a smile. “This year, I’ve made you worried.”
“Master, as long as you’re back and return to us safely, we’re all relieved.”
“Yes, Master. It’s great that you’re back.” The crowd gathered around her, smiling.
At this time, a figure in white came out from a corner of the first floor. Seeing the crowd around Feng Jiu, she hung her head and hesitated a bit, then finally came over.
“Bai Qingcheng pays respect to Master. ” She saluted respectfully to Feng Jiu.
Feng Jiu’s eyes flickered at her sight. After a quick glance at her, Feng Jiu said, “Raise your head.”
“Yes.” She answered, looking up at her.
With just a glance, Feng Jiu knew that Bai Qingcheng’s sharp edge had been reined in and the arrogance she used to have when they met in the Heavenly Sun Sect had already gone. She was a lot more pleasing to the eye now.
“Go back to work!” She spoke slowly, gesturing to her to withdraw.
