Chapter 1429: Extortion! Yin Yang Nine Orifice Pill!

Seeing the look of fear on the Eleventh Prince’s face, Luo Feng grinned slightly; indeed, evil men are punished by their own kind.

Chixiao glanced at the completely destroyed residence, his eyes returning to the Eleventh Prince with a faint smile:

“You led your people to turn my residence into this state, and even injured others. Surely, you don’t think of leaving just like this.”

Upon hearing this, the Eleventh Prince sighed in relief and smiled apologetically, “I will take full responsibility for compensating for the damage to the residence and the injuries of the victims.”

He noticed the seemingly good relationship between Chixiao and Luo Feng, initially fearing he wouldn’t be allowed to leave so easily. Now, hearing that Chixiao only asked for compensation, eased his mind. Between life and money, he knew which was more important, and as the Eleventh Prince of Out Cloud Country, he certainly wasn’t lacking in wealth.

Luo Feng gently shook his head. In his recollection, Chixiao wasn’t someone so easily swayed. Surely, the matter wouldn’t end so simply.

“Hehe, the Eleventh Prince is indeed reasonable.”

Seeing the Eleventh Prince agree, Chixiao smiled faintly and turned to a middle-aged Fire Armour Guard, “Steward Du, calculate the total loss this time. Remember, keep the account clear; although the Eleventh Prince is agreeable, we should not take advantage of him.”

“Yes.”

The middle-aged guard nodded, surveyed the surroundings, and said, “Young master, the damage to the residence and courtyard covers five hundred meters circumference. The repair costs are estimated to be eleven thousand second-grade Yuan Stones…”

The Eleventh Prince relaxed. He had indeed worried the other party would extort an unreasonable amount. Eleven thousand second-grade Yuan Stones were but a drop in the ocean compared to a jade artifact he possessed that was worth much more.

The middle-aged guard paused, then continued, “Additionally, the main gate has been completely damaged. The material used for the gate is Yuan Sinking Wood from the endless ocean, costing sixty million second-grade Yuan Stones, including repairs and other material expenses, totaling sixty million three hundred fifty thousand second-grade Yuan Stones.”

“Sixty million!” The Eleventh Prince’s eyes widened, shocked by the sudden amount, he involuntarily licked his parched lips, “How could you possibly use Yuan Sinking Wood to build a gate!”

The middle-aged guard remained indifferent and said, “There are thirteen injured in total, eight seriously injured and five lightly injured. According to our Filariasis Residence’s usual compensation rule, each seriously injured person is compensated with five million second-grade Yuan Stones, and each lightly injured person with one million, totaling forty-one million second-grade Yuan Stones.”

Luo Feng gave a bitter smile; it seemed today that the Eleventh Prince wouldn’t leave without being stripped of his skin.

Compensating five million second-grade Yuan Stones for serious injuries and one million for light injuries would cause even a True Yuan Realm Martial Artist to flock here as guards. Moreover, apart from the initial seriously injured four Fire Armour Guards, the sides hadn’t even fought afterward. Where did thirteen injured come from? Clearly, the middle-aged guard aimed to extort a substantial amount.

Jiang Fengfeng and others clearly noticed this as well and had a look of anticipation for a good show.

The middle-aged guard looked up at the Eleventh Prince, “Altogether it’s one hundred million four hundred fifty thousand second-grade Yuan Stones. Eleventh Prince, do you find the accounts accurate?”

“One hundred million four hundred fifty thousand…”

The Eleventh Prince swallowed hard, immediately retorting, “Who would use Yuan Sinking Wood to build a gate? And there aren’t thirteen injured; Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artists don’t need such hefty compensation.”

Though a prince, he couldn’t casually hand over a billion second-grade Yuan Stones, even if he pooled his savings accumulated over the years; it would still fall short.

“Hmm?”

Chixiao’s smile froze, eyes full of murderous intent, coldly saying, “Don’t want to compensate?”

“I…”

Shivering, the Eleventh Prince dared no longer speak.

“One hundred million four hundred fifty thousand second-grade Yuan Stones; not one less. Otherwise, you won’t leave here! Wrecking my residence and hurting my people—today, even if I kill you, your father Su Shenfeng would have nothing to say.”

Chixiao’s words were icy; they were seventy percent true, thirty percent false, meant to scare the Eleventh Prince. Regardless of Su Shenfeng’s renowned heroism and goodwill with his father, he wouldn’t truly kill the Eleventh Prince.

Of course, if dissatisfied, crippling him was viable.

The Eleventh Prince dared not question Chixiao’s threat, hesitated slightly and gritted his teeth, “Fine, I’ll pay! However, I currently only have fifty million second-grade Yuan Stones on me; combined with other assets, it’s merely seventy to eighty million.”

Expressing this, the Eleventh Prince felt a pang in his heart; years of hard-earned savings gone in an instant—no one would feel good about it.

“That’s easy to handle.” Chixiao chuckled, eyeing the Eleventh Prince, “I heard last year your father Su Shenfeng’s millennium birthday, he awarded each of you siblings an Yin Yang Nine Orifice Pill. You haven’t taken this Spirity Pill yet, have you? Use it to cover the remaining Yuan Stones.”

“Yin Yang Nine Orifice Pill…” Jiang Fengfeng, beside Luo Feng, glanced with interest.

“You… how do you know I haven’t taken it!” The Eleventh Prince’s eyes widened; upon speaking, regretted instantly.

Chixiao chuckled, “No need to hide. The Yin Yang Nine Orifice Pill is our Free and Unfettered Sect’s Spiritual Medicine, how could I not know it? This Spirity Pill can divide a Martial Artist’s True Yuan into Yin and Yang, significantly enhancing True Yuan’s spirituality. If taken by a ninth level True Yuan Realm Martial Artist, it could merge nine Spirit Rotations, greatly increasing the chance of breaking through to the Yuan Sea Realm. Your True Yuan shows none of the effects of taking the Yin Yang Nine Orifice Pill, seems intended for use during your Yuan Sea Realm breakthrough.”

The Eleventh Prince’s face stiffened; Chixiao was entirely correct.

“Well then, decided yet? My patience is limited.” Chixiao waved his hand, causing the Fire Armour Guards surrounding the Eleventh Prince to step closer, eyes fierce on the prince.

“Fine, let’s do as you say!” The Eleventh Prince’s veins bulged on his forehead, turned to glare daggers at Luo Feng.

If not for Luo Feng, he wouldn’t end up in such destitution. All his assets for compensation, even the treasured Yin Yang Nine Orifice Pill meant for his Yuan Sea Realm breakthrough, were handed over.

Facing the Eleventh Prince’s gaze, Luo Feng felt somewhat speechless; what’s this got to do with him?

“All Yuan Stones and assets are inside.”

Tossing a storage ring to Chixiao, the Eleventh Prince fetched a walnut-sized jade box from beside him.

With a twitching eye, he tossed it with resolve, “This is the Yin Yang Nine Orifice Pill! Now, may I leave?”

Chixiao accepted the items, inspected them briefly, and smiled, “The Eleventh Prince is certainly a man of his word, admirable. You may step aside.”

“Yes.”

The Fire Armour Guards blocking the Eleventh Prince’s path smiled as they cleared the way.

“Hmph!”

The Eleventh Prince snorted coldly, turned with a grim expression, and walked away, steps heavy.
