~8 min read 1,545 words

"Lin Feng, do you dare to kill a member of my Liu family?"

Liu Shi'an's old face was extremely gloomy; moral pressure didn't work, and Lin Feng was simply too lawless.

Lin Feng's expression was calm as a stagnant pool, and he said coldly, "Old thing, wasn't it you who said I was ungrateful?"

"I, as Clan Leader, am simply following your request and showing it to you!"

The crowd was stunned.

It seemed that was indeed the case.

From beginning to end, it had been the Liu family that was aggressive.

They had used morality to oppress the Lin family, which was suffocating.

But times had changed; the Lin family was no longer the Lin family that could be slaughtered at will.

"So what if I don't talk about morality? What can you do to my Lin family?"

Lin Feng mocked contemptuously, and these words made the eyes of the Lin family members light up.

That's right, so what if they were ungrateful?

So what if the world reviled them?

Justice lies in the hearts of the people, and power does not fear rumors!

The Lin family only needed to be strong; why fear the malicious slander of others?

What could that hurt?

What was the use of saving face? Could face bring development to the Lin family?

Every member of the Lin family was like a dragon; once their strength became the best in Leiling Province, the rumors would naturally cease.

Everyone would keep their mouths shut and not dare to speak recklessly.

For a moment, Liu Shi'an could not hold his old face together.

He had come in person today, yet he couldn't even persuade the Lin family; he had truly underestimated Lin Feng.

"Lin Hai, Lin Zhengshang, why don't you two hurry up and persuade him?" Liu Shi'an said hurriedly.

If he couldn't deal with Lin Feng, he would turn his guns elsewhere.

Lin Hai let out a cold snort and said, "Elder Liu, since my Lin family is already ungrateful, we naturally have to put on a show."

"Otherwise, wouldn't others say that my Lin family's reputation is unearned?"

Once these words were spoken, Shen Ao couldn't hold back his laughter.

That was truly well said!

The Lin family members suppressed their laughter, their shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

"Presumptuous! This is simply outrageous!"

Liu Shi'an gritted his old teeth and thumped his cane heavily.

At this moment, Liu Xun was already unable to hold on.

"Ancestor... save me!" Liu Xun's eyes rolled back, and he looked like he was about to pass out.

Liu Shi'an was completely defeated; he pleaded aggrievedly, "Let him go, my Liu family will leave immediately, this matter will not be mentioned again, and from now on, our two families will sever ties."

Hearing this, Lin Feng finally let go of Liu Xun.

"Elder Liu, you were the ones who said to sever ties, don't you ever forget that!"

Lin Feng said coldly, and by this time, Liu Shi'an's expression had turned gloomy to the extreme.

He said nothing and turned to leave.

Seeing this, the group of people became anxious.

"You still owe us our Spirit Stones!"

"Don't go, the matter wasn't accomplished, so the Spirit Stones should be returned, right?"

"If you don't hand over the Spirit Stones, you aren't leaving!"

The group of people who had been swindled by the Liu family blocked the path, not letting Liu Shi'an and Liu Xun leave.

The Lin family members stood with their hands on their hips, quietly watching the show.

"Give it to them!" Liu Shi'an said coldly.

The one losing face today wasn't the Lin family, but their Liu family.

They had come to threaten them and failed, completely severed their friendship, and were even lectured by Lin Feng.

It was shameful to even speak of it!

"Ancestor... the Spirit Stones... there aren't enough Spirit Stones..."

Liu Xun's voice trembled; he had never expected this matter to turn out like this.

"How could there not be enough?" Liu Shi'an was stunned.

"We collected a total of 700,000 Spirit Stones, and I gave 400,000 to Liu Yao."

Liu Xun had thought this matter was a sure thing, so he had let him spend it boldly.

Who could have expected a slip-up?

"What?!"

Liu Shi'an was shocked; the Spirit Stones had been given to Liu Yao, and he feared that the boy had gone off to indulge in debauchery somewhere.

With such a massive deficit, what could the Liu family use to cover it?

"Return the Spirit Stones! If you don't return them, don't blame us for being impolite!"

When the crowd heard that the Liu family had no Spirit Stones to return, they were immediately furious.

Why didn't they mention the risks when they were collecting the money, and now that something had gone wrong, there was nothing to return?

Among the people present, who didn't have a significant background?

If they didn't return the Spirit Stones, the Liu family would likely not survive!

Seeing this, Liu Xun and Liu Shi'an panicked; that group of people wouldn't listen to their explanations at all.

Fists and feet have no eyes, and the crowd swarmed them.

After a brutal beating, Liu Shi'an said excitedly, "Wait, my Liu family will scrape together everything we have to pay you back!"

He dragged his aged body away, his cane having been snatched by someone.

Such a tragic scene, yet it was not worth pitying.

Shen Ao sighed; if the Liu family had been a bit smarter and hadn't put on such an arrogant stance, they might have been able to maintain a superficial relationship with the Lin family.

With the Lin family's capabilities, whatever leaked through their fingers would have been enough for the Liu family to rise.

Heaven's sins can be avoided.

Self-inflicted sins, there is no living!

Seeing this, Lin Feng gave Lin Zhengshang a look.

Lin Zhengshang understood and immediately said loudly, "How much does the Liu family owe you? My Lin family will help them pay it back!"

Hearing this, the group of people were all stunned.

The Lin and Liu families had completely broken off, and now was a good opportunity to kick them while they were down; they hadn't expected the Lin family not only to refrain from kicking them but to be willing to help.

The so-called ingratitude was now seen through clearly.

"The Lin family is truly righteous."

"It's reached this point, and they're still helping the Liu family pay their debts."

"Tsk tsk, who is truly heartless and unrighteous is clear at a glance!"

The crowd sneered one after another.

To kill is to pierce the heart; the Liu family's actions today had clearly left a deep impression on everyone.

The Liu family, which was full of talk about benevolence and morality, was actually the most heartless and unrighteous.

Before long, the 400,000 Spirit Stones were repaid, and Lin Feng looked at Liu Shi'an.

"Elder Liu, the friendship between our two families is completely severed; don't come to Ziyun City again in the future. These 400,000 Spirit Stones count as repaying the kindness you showed the Lin family back then."

"May our two families never meet again!"

As these words were spoken, it was as if a thunderclap had exploded in Liu Shi'an's mind.

He smiled bitterly, filled with immense regret.

Why had he been so confused as to agree to Liu Xun's request to come and cause trouble for the Lin family!

The Lin family had completely risen and was the strongest family in Leiling Province, with even the Four Great Sects having to give them face.

Such a force, let alone offending them, one should have been scrambling to curry favor!

A perfect hand of cards had been played into a mess by the Liu family.

After this incident, the Liu family would become the biggest laughingstock in Leiling Province!

With this matter resolved, the mountain of morality was lifted from the hearts of the Lin family members.

But in Liu Xun's eyes, there was a look of venomous resentment.

"Lin family, don't think that 400,000 Spirit Stones can make me submit to you; the higher you fly now, the more miserably you will fall in the future!"

"Just wait, you'll get what's coming to you!"

Liu Xun gritted his teeth and roared in a low voice.

No sooner said than done.

A dense black cloud flew toward Ziyun City.

Looking closely, those were not clouds, but majestic Flying Boats.

On every Flying Boat stood the banner of the Haoqi Sect, and countless Haoqi Sect disciples stood upon them.

"Lin family! A bunch of bumpkins from a remote little city, you actually killed two of my Haoqi Sect's Elders!"

"Today, my Haoqi Sect has gathered ten thousand people, and we swear to flatten Ziyun City!"

A roar of fury descended.

Blue halos lit up on the Flying Boats.

Seeing this, everyone in Ziyun City fled, fearing that this battle would affect them.

But the people of the Haoqi Sect clearly had no intention of letting anyone here go.

"Lin Feng, you brat, get out here!"

The roar continued, deafening.

On a white Flying Boat, a middle-aged man with a cold expression stood still, his gaze fixed directly on Lin Feng.
