Chapter 86: Threat

~8 min read 1,546 words

"True disciple?"

Zhu Dafu was stunned when he heard the words from outside the room, and his heart was a little heavy: "I'm afraid the visitor is not good!"

However, he was not prepared to keep the other party out; some things could not be avoided, so he said:

"Ask that senior brother to come in!"

"Okay, shopkeeper."

Soon, the clerk of the Tianfu shop brought a person and pushed the door in.

Zhu Dafu saw the visitor, although he didn't know him, he still stood up and greeted him with a smile, asking: "I don't know how to address you, senior brother?"

Faced with Zhu Dafu's smiling face, the other party just kept a straight face and responded coldly:

"Zhao Yuanji."

Zhu Dafu didn't mind Zhao Yuanji's coldness and still smiled: "So it's Senior Brother Zhao? I don't know what you are looking for, senior brother?"

Zhao Yuanji didn't answer this time, but inadvertently glanced at the clerk of the Tianfu shop next to him.

Zhu Dafu understood in his heart when he saw this and directly ordered:

"Ziyu, you go down first!"

Hearing Zhu Dafu's order, Ziyu said respectfully:

"Yes, shopkeeper."

Then he left the room and closed the door by the way.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuanji's expression softened slightly, he took a step, walked to the main seat of the room, and sat down on his own.

Seeing Zhao Yuanji so domineering, Zhu Dafu's eyes were gloomy for a moment, knowing that the visitor was not good, so he restrained his smile, walked to the side and sat down, and said lightly: "Senior Brother Zhao, just say what you have to say! Although Junior Brother may not be able to help."

Since the other party didn't give face, Zhu Dafu didn't pretend either.

Anyway, if he offended him, he offended him; with the large array covering the Xuantian Sect, would the other party dare to take action directly? Looking at Zhu Dafu's change, Zhao Yuanji showed dissatisfaction in his eyes and said:

"Is this your attitude toward senior brother?"

Noticing Zhao Yuanji's dissatisfaction, Zhu Dafu didn't care at all and directly retorted:

"Is this your attitude toward junior brother?"

"Bang! You are presumptuous!"

Zhao Yuanji heard Zhu Dafu's words, directly slapped the table in a rage, and directly slapped the table and everything on the table into powder.

But Zhu Dafu didn't even blink his eyes and sneered: "Senior brother doesn't have to play this set, just say what you have to say, my table is not cheap, it's worth 300 high-grade spirit stones, and I will trouble senior brother to settle the bill later."

Seeing that Zhu Dafu was not afraid at all, Zhao Yuanji looked at him deeply, and finally narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.

The next moment, Zhao Yuanji laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Junior Brother Zhu has good courage, senior brother is just joking with you."

Zhu Dafu didn't answer, just looked at Zhao Yuanji coldly.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuanji spoke again:

"Senior brother came here this time to help Junior Brother Zhu solve his worries."

"Junior Brother Zhu is only in the Purple Mansion Realm now, senior brother is afraid that you won't be able to grasp the huge benefits of the Tianfu shop, so I want to help you, Junior Brother, and buy shares in the Tianfu shop. I don't know what Junior Brother Zhu's intention is?"

When mentioning the three words Purple Mansion Realm, Zhao Yuanji emphasized his accent without any cover, and the potential threat was undisguised.

Zhao Yuanji is not stupid, it's okay to show off his power, if he really threatens Zhu Dafu on the surface, in case Zhu Dafu records it and sends it to the Law Enforcement Hall.

Even with his status, he would not be able to avoid a punishment.

After speaking, Zhao Yuanji tested again: "Of course, if there are others behind the Tianfu shop, Junior Brother Zhu can say so if you can't make the decision, you can let me, senior brother, find someone who can make the decision to talk."

Seeing that Zhao Yuanji finally stated the purpose of this trip, Zhu Dafu didn't want to beat around the bush with him and directly refused:

"Senior Brother Zhao, don't worry about the Tianfu shop. If Senior Brother Zhao has nothing else to do, then I won't entertain you anymore, Junior Brother."

Seeing Zhu Dafu so unappreciative and refusing to say anything, Zhao Yuanji snorted coldly: "Humph, since that's the case, then Junior Brother Zhu should take care of yourself!"

After speaking, Zhao Yuanji was about to leave, but didn't expect to be called by Zhu Dafu again: "Senior Brother Zhao, the small shop is a small business, damaged things still need to be paid for."

This time, Zhao Yuanji was not as furious as expected.

He just looked at Zhu Dafu coldly, then left 300 high-grade spirit stones and left the Tianfu shop without saying a word.

After Zhao Yuanji left, Zhu Dafu sat paralyzed on the seat behind him, his back full of cold sweat.

Zhao Yuanji is a Deity Transformation Realm cultivator, and he is just a small Purple Mansion Realm now.

Confronting a Deity Transformation Realm cultivator, even in the Xuantian Sect, protected by the Xuantian Sect's sect rules, the psychological pressure Zhu Dafu endured was also huge.

In case Zhao Yuanji really took action regardless of everything, even if he was punished by the Xuantian Sect afterward, he wouldn't be able to be saved!

But he couldn't give in; once he gave in, there would be endless trouble. Since he was going to offend the other party anyway, it was better to be straightforward and bet that the other party wouldn't dare to risk his life and take action within the Xuantian Sect.

After recovering, Zhu Dafu looked at the table that had turned into powder and muttered to himself: "It seems that it's better not to leave the sect in the short term!"

On the other side.

After Zhao Yuanji left the Tianfu shop, Li Xue, who had been waiting outside the door, immediately greeted him and asked:

"Senior Brother Zhao, how is it?"

Zhao Yuanji didn't answer directly, and after taking Li Xue away from the market, he ordered: "From today on, send someone to watch Zhu Dafu for me. Once he leaves the sect, tell me immediately!"

"This?"

Hearing Zhao Yuanji's words, Li Xue didn't agree immediately. After hesitating for a moment, Li Xue still persuaded:

"Senior Brother Zhao, for a Zhu Dafu, we don't have to take such a big risk and violate the Xuantian Sect's sect rules!"

Zhao Yuanji scanned Li Xue indifferently and said coldly: "Li Xue, you just need to obey my orders, you don't need to worry about other things. Who said I was going to violate the sect rules? Hmm?"

At the end, Zhao Yuanji's powerful aura directly pressed on Li Xue.

Li Xue was pressed with cold sweat and couldn't breathe, and kept saying in his mouth:

"Yes, yes, yes, senior brother taught me right, Li Xue knows."

Although he said so, Li Xue was cursing in his heart.

He regretted it immensely now; when he was a handyman disciple, he shouldn't have signed a service contract with Zhao Yuanji on a whim for cultivation resources like others.

If it weren't for the fact that the contract period hadn't expired, he would have left long ago. Once Zhao Yuanji really violated the sect rules, he would be jointly and severally liable.

Seeing Li Xue give in, Zhao Yuanji withdrew his aura, snorted coldly, and took Li Xue to his cave dwelling.

Although Li Xue was bound by the contract and could not betray him, Li Xue was still a disciple of the Xuantian Sect after all, and he didn't dare to take action against Li Xue directly within the Xuantian Sect.

And even if there was a contract, it could only make Li Xue and others not reveal any of his things and do things that did not truly betray the sect.

After all, when everyone joined the Xuantian Sect, they all made a Dao oath not to betray the sect.

But violating some sect rules does not mean betraying the sect.

Just like a person violating part of the national law does not mean that this person has betrayed this country.

The Xuantian Sect is a fairy sect, naturally knowing that people have seven emotions and six desires, and the Dao heart needs to be tempered by oneself, not by the sect forcibly binding and shaping.

With so many disciples under the sect, fighting between each other is inevitable, but appropriate fighting is more conducive to the growth of disciples.

If you forcibly suppress everything by the Dao oath, it will only be counterproductive and bind the upper limit of the disciples, which is not what the Xuantian Sect wants to see.

Therefore, as long as you don't truly betray the sect, other things are constrained and punished by the Xuantian Sect through the formulated sect rules.

Otherwise, if everything relied on the sect's Dao oath to cut it all at once, then the sect rules would have no meaning.
