Chapter 589: Blood-dyed Relics
Against so many guards, the girl’s cousin immediately turned pale. Ah Niu’s heart sank. He had never seen so many experts back in his family clan, and each and everyone of them far exceeded him in strength. He could feel the pressure.
“What do you want to do?”
Ah Yu held her breath as her heart began to beat rapidly. Were they going to plunder them for their wealth? Was there still any law here?
“Hur Hur, do not worry. These guards may look a bit fierce, but they are not planning on doing anything to you. Just now, we already closed our deal. A hundred low-ranking relics and sending you to my Li Fire Sect as a Miscellaneous Chores disciple. These people are here to escort you to my Li Fire Sect. I am a man of my word.”
The long-faced man did not dare murder someone within Heaven Martial City, and to answer to the public and to be on the side of reason, he was indeed going to send Ah Niu and Ah Yu to the Li Fire Sect.
However, once they reach the Li Fire Sect, it would no longer be up to this pair of siblings. It would be wishful thinking for them to think that they would live peacefully as Miscellaneous Chores disciples in the Li Fire Sect, for the moment they entered, they were very likely to be tortured to death.
And for the Li Fire Sect causing someone’s death, that was no different from stepping on an ant, so who would care?
Ah Yu, who had also came to this realization, turned tragically pale.
“Don’t… Don’t pull me in… This has nothing to do with me!” Ah Yu’s cousin, who was standing beside her, suddenly jolted from his beautiful dream. He sensed that once the long-faced man lost all decorum with them, he would be silenced. Killing two was no different from killing three.
It is all that idiot, Jiang Yidao’s fault. If not for him, he could still survive, but now… he was probably doomed!
Upon seeing this scene, Yi Yun sneered, “You finally cannot hold it in anymore?”
He had long since expected things to turn into such a situation. In fact, he was waiting for this to happen. From the moment the long-faced man insulted Lin Xintong, Yi Yun had already wanted to settle scores.
“From what you just said, are you treating my Li Fire Sect as a tortoise? I can endure this? You cannot expect me to watch on helplessly as someone behave atrociously within my Li Fire Sect’s territory, and then remain indifferent, right?” As the long-faced man spoke, the strong warriors silently surrounded Yi Yun and company.
This situation made Ah Niu and Ah Yu panic and feel angry.
The long-faced man standing in the middle smiled and looked extremely calm and confident. He formed a sharp contrast with Ah Yu and company’s unease.
“You violated the trading rules, and tried to sell one item to two parties. I did not hold it to you, and will even fulfill my side of the deal. I will send you to the Li Fire Sect, which is already extremely generous. As for you…”
The long-faced man looked towards Yi Yun, and an overpowering sense of greed flashed in his eyes, “You Southern Sea savage dared to make a mess inside my shop. The use of force is prohibited in Heaven Martial City, but, if someone causes trouble, such as…”
As the long-faced man spoke, he suddenly punched out, the force from his fist smashing into a shelf, causing it to explode. The things inside scattered onto the ground.
The herbs within were all damaged.
“Ze Ze! Take a look. You were unhappy that this pair of siblings sold the mysterious rock to us and thus wanted to cause trouble with my Li Fire Sect, and destroyed things inside my shop…”
“When the Li Fire Sect does business, we value the principle of how amiability attracts riches, but if someone causes trouble, we will definitely act. An arrogant savage like you daring to come to my Li Fire Sect to destroy things, even if I accidentally kill you, Heaven Martial City’s Lord Zhang would understand. However… disrupting the calm of Heaven Martial City still requires me to treat Lord Zhang to tea, so as to amend my misdoings.”
His words sounded indifferent, but Ah Yu and company could tell that the long-faced man was hinting that he knew the person in charge of Heaven Martial City, and that there was some friendship between them.
