Chapter 53: A Lion's Exorbitant Demand? No, This Is a Whale's Swallow!

"What did you say!"

The Turkic powerhouse Baoke was the first to be unable to sit still.

He did not expect the other party to look down on their Turkic tribe to such an extent.

"Hmph, can't you hear what I said? Is your head stuffed with donkey hair?"

Chu Feng naturally did not have a good temper either.

Daring to jump around on his turf, he would teach them how to behave in a minute!

"You brat, you're courting death!"

Feeling insulted, Baoke was about to make a move on Chu Feng immediately, but Xia Bai hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"General Baoke, please calm your anger!"

"Hmph!"

Baoke let out a cold snort, turned his head away, and said no more.

After pacifying Baoke, Xia Bai turned his head to look at Chu Feng.

"Please forgive me, General Chu. After all, General Baoke is a soldier, so his temper is inevitably a bit explosive!"

"Fine, I won't hold it against you this time. Next time, remember to keep your dog on a leash so it doesn't run around barking and annoying people!"

"You..."

Baoke's temper was instantly provoked by Chu Feng again.

Xia Bai hurriedly tried to persuade him again: "General Baoke, don't forget the Prince's instructions."

"Hmph!"

Baoke once again forcibly suppressed his anger.

He just didn't understand what there was to talk about with these Wei people.

They should just send troops to attack and force them to hand over Wu Ha.

If they didn't hand him over or if there was any harm done to Wu Ha.

Then they would slaughter the entire Anwu County to be buried with Wu Ha.

"Sigh!"

Xia Bai sighed to himself, not expecting this diplomatic mission to be so difficult.

Although the kid in front of him looked young, he was a complete rascal.

He would jump out from time to time to mess with your state of mind.

"Hehe, General Chu, could it be that you think the sincerity we offered is not enough?"

"Of course!"

Chu Feng said without hesitation, "Wu Ha is the Prince of your Wuji Tribe; his worth is surely more than just this, right?"

"Then how about we add another one million taels of silver?"

It was a negotiation, after all!

It was meant to be bargaining.

Before setting off, he had long been prepared for the other party to make an exorbitant demand.

So as long as the other party wasn't being too excessive, they were willing to accept it.

Anyway, this money was just being temporarily stored in Anwu County.

When they sent troops to attack Anwu County later, this money would naturally return to their own pockets.

As for what they said about not attacking Anwu County for ten years, that was just an empty promise that could never be fulfilled.

"Not enough!"

Chu Feng still shook his head.

"Then how much exactly does General Chu want?"

Xia Bai was too lazy to guess.

He simply let Chu Feng name his own price.

It was just that what Chu Feng said next caused even him, a scholar, to lose his composure.

"Add two zeros to the basis of what you just said!"

"What?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Not only the people on the Turkic side, but even Lu Shuwan and Zhu Kang were shocked to the point of dropping their jaws.

According to the requirements Chu Feng stated.

Adding two more zeros to the previously provided list.

It was equivalent to the Turkic side having to pay ten million taels of gold, two hundred million taels of silver, one hundred thousand head of cattle and sheep, plus a promise not to attack Anwu County for one thousand years.

"Holy crap, brother, you really dare to ask for anything!"

Zhu Kang was in a state of disarray at this moment.

He had seen exorbitant demands before, but this was the first time he had seen a whale-like swallow.

Such a price, let alone the Turkic side, even Great Wei might not be able to afford it!

"This guy is really too bad!"

Lu Shuwan muttered in her heart, then added, "But I like it!"

She had long found these foreign tribes at the border to be an eyesore.

When she was in the Capital, she often suffered from the bullying and oppression of the border people by foreign tribes after they broke through the passes.

Now, someone had finally appeared at the border who could properly deal with them.

She could not have been more delighted.

"You... you are simply going too far!"

Xia Bai was so angry at this moment that he was gasping for breath, casting aside even the cultivation of a scholar.

"You are not negotiating at all; you are just being a nuisance!"

"Hahahaha..."

"I am just being a nuisance to you, what can you do about it?"

Chu Feng slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

"You bunch of foreigners have been harassing our borders and disturbing our people for hundreds of years!"

"Causing countless families to be broken and people to be displaced."

"What I am asking from you is not even a fraction of the losses we have suffered over these years!"

"I will put it plainly today: if you can pay, take your Prince and leave! If you cannot..."

Baoke stepped forward at this moment: "And if we cannot, what will you do?"

"Heh, you won't pay?"

Chu Feng sneered, staring fixedly at Baoke, "If you don't pay, none of you will leave my territory alive today!"

"Hahahaha..."

"You won't let us leave alive? Hmph, I would like to see you try today!"

Baoke took the initiative to launch an attack on Chu Feng.

He had heard that the young man before him had beheaded three Innate experts in a single day.

Today, he wanted to experience it for himself.

"Hmph, overestimating your own capabilities!"

Facing Baoke's assault, Chu Feng did not even bother to dodge.

It just so happened that he had been practicing the divine skill of the Golden Bell Shield, and it was time to find an opponent to test it out.

"Oh no, hurry and dodge!"

Unaware of the situation, Lu Shuwan hurriedly urged Chu Feng to dodge.

Although both were experts at the Innate Late Stage, one would still be severely injured or even killed by the other if caught unprepared.

Unfortunately, Chu Feng did not take Lu Shuwan's words to heart at all.

He let Baoke's attack land on his body.

"It's over!"

Lu Shuwan's heart sank to the bottom in an instant.

She thought that Chu Feng would definitely not survive.

She then subconsciously prepared to take Zhu Kang and flee.

"Heh, did you not eat?"

"What?"

The sudden words made everyone present instantly perk up.

They saw Chu Feng standing in place as if nothing had happened.

Baoke's attack had not caused him the slightest bit of damage.

It was not even as effective as a scratch.

"This... how is this possible?"

Baoke could not believe the scene before his eyes.

He had used his full strength in that previous strike.

An opponent of the same realm would definitely die facing such a strike,

even an expert at the Innate Great Perfection.

It was impossible to be unscathed without any preparation.

"An illusion, this must be an illusion!"

Baoke erupted again.

His fierce attacks poured toward Chu Feng like a rainstorm.

Looking at Chu Feng,

he remained as composed as ever, even urging Baoke to put in more effort.

"This guy is truly hateful, making me worry for nothing!"

Lu Shuwan muttered to herself.

Chu Feng's strength far exceeded her imagination.

She was very curious about what level of strength Chu Feng actually possessed now.

A Grandmaster?

"Heh, you've been hitting for so long, now it's my turn!"

Chu Feng could not be bothered to continue entangling with the opponent.

He suddenly reached out and grabbed Baoke by the throat.

Baoke could not react in time and was lifted up by Chu Feng with one hand.

"Ah!!!!!"

A strong sense of suffocation filled Baoke's entire body.

The next moment.

Chu Feng directly crushed Baoke's neck.

The pitiful man had never imagined.

That he would actually encounter such a formidable enemy.

After Chu Feng killed Baoke in one move.

His gaze subconsciously fell upon Xia Bai and the others.
