Chapter 99: Mental Damages!

Lu Tianyu's gaze was cold: "If you agree, I will spare you!"

If it were the Lu Tianyu who had not yet entered the Forbidden Abyss, he surely would have killed Zong Yu for a moment of satisfaction.

But things are different now; his thinking is incomparably mature, and he is no longer the green, callow youth he once was.

Killing Zong Yu right now would be satisfying for a moment.

But Guo Lao clearly has intentions of being moved, and to consider his granddaughter's face, he chose to let his granddaughter decide; after all, the sin of threatening his granddaughter is unforgivable.

Since the granddaughter placed the power of decision in his hands, he cannot simply kill him and be done with it.

Once killed, while Guo Lao might not say anything on the surface, he would certainly feel uncomfortable in his heart.

His grandfather would also be in an awkward position, and might even have to apologize to Guo Lao.

Furthermore, the most important point is the favor Liu Jinzi owes the Nether Three Sects.

Liu Jinzi is, after all, a master of arrays.

If he hadn't communicated with Qian Gu Nu Di this time and reversed the array at the critical moment, the Bahuang Demon-Suppressing Array would surely have been breached, and the Bahuang Star Domain would likely have become a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood by now.

This master of arrays, Liu Jinzi, is no mere figurehead; it is best not to offend such a person.

However, one cannot let Zong Yu off for nothing; making the Nether Three Sects exhaust their favor with Liu Jinzi is equivalent to removing a major hidden danger.

Guo Boxiong was startled upon hearing this, then smiled.

He thought to himself, "Kid, your shrewdness is too deep, no worse than your grandfather, that old fox."

A long-lost smile appeared on the face of Changmei Laozu.

He thought to himself, "My grandson has finally grown up."

On the side of the Nether Three Sects, however, their expressions were ugly.

How could they not know the meaning behind Lu Tianyu's words, yet at this moment, they could say nothing.

But the hatred in their hearts for Lu Tianyu reached a new height.

Whether the Bahuang Star Domain is destroyed or not is irrelevant; this brat must die!

Zong Yu bowed to Guo Lao and cupped his hands: "I agree!"

How could he not grasp at this straw, even though he knew that severing his Causality with Liu Jinzi was not good.

But staying alive is still the most important thing.

As long as he is alive, there are plenty of opportunities to regain his face; if he dies, all opportunities are gone.

However, it is impossible for him to feel grateful to Lu Tianyu.

Lu Tianyu has become the one person he wants to kill the most, a thought he never had before.

Zong Yu glared viciously at Lu Tianyu and turned to leave.

But suddenly, a cold voice rang out from behind: "Wait!"

"You have besieged my Bahuang Star Domain for a month, causing my Bahuang Star Domain severe losses; do you think you can just leave like this?"

Zong Yu turned around abruptly.

He saw that Lu Tianyu's pitch-black eyes were filled with cold light, a mocking look appearing at the corners of his mouth, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

Zong Tianling, Ming Zhentian, and the others also turned around, a bad premonition rising in their hearts simultaneously.

This kid wouldn't push his luck and use Guo Lao's reputation to suppress the Nether Three Sects, would he?

Given this kid's vengeful personality, he really might do that; this is trouble!

Zong Tianling steeled himself and stepped forward, saying coldly: "What do you want?"

He wanted to see what Lu Tianyu was planning to do.

If it were too excessive, even with Guo Lao present, he could not yield; at worst, he would fight to the death!

It is not as if the Nether Three Sects have no trump cards; it is just that using them here is not appropriate.

Lu Tianyu snorted coldly: "You Nether people besieged my Bahuang Star Domain for twenty days, leaving the people of the Bahuang Star Domain in a state of panic and causing heavy losses."

"Shouldn't you compensate my Bahuang Star Domain for some things?"

Once these words were spoken, Zong Tianling was immediately enraged: "It was you who killed the Saint Son of my Kulu Zong, provoking us first; if we didn't take action, where would the face of the Nether Three Sects be!"

"You speak of losses; our Nether Three Sects have suffered the greatest losses."

Speaking of losses, he was furious: "You killed my Diling City Lord and Saint Son, and swindled away most of my Diling Sect's spiritual vein resources."

"You attempted to incite a great war between the Nether Sect and the Xuanqing Sect, and almost succeeded."

"You schemed to kill my Diling Sect's Integration Stage elder and slew my Diling Sect's Supreme Elder, and you still talk to me about losses!"

"If there is to be compensation, you are the ones who should compensate!"

His heart was filled with raging fire.

This kid is truly too excessive, acting innocent after taking advantage!

Ming Zhentian also had an expression of rage: "Kid, that's enough, don't push your luck!"

The cultivators of the Nether Three Sects were all filled with fury, glaring viciously at Lu Tianyu.

This kid is too much!

Lu Tianyu chuckled: "Pushing my luck?"

"Ming Tianqi sent people to ambush and kill me but failed, and later came to kill me again; shouldn't I have killed him!"

"I killed Ming Tianqi, and you actually besieged my Bahuang Star Domain; if Bahuang Laozu hadn't activated the Bahuang Demon-Suppressing Array, my Bahuang Star Domain would not exist by now."

"You besieged the Bahuang Star Domain; being killed is purely what you deserve."

Cold light flickered in his eyes: "You can choose not to compensate for the losses."

"But don't blame me for having my master contact all parties to wipe out your Nether Three Sects!"

A sharp killing intent radiated from Lu Tianyu's entire body.

Raging fire surged within Zong Tianling's chest: "You!"

He wanted to lash out on the spot, but he still forced himself to suppress it.

Yet he was trembling all over from anger.

He did not doubt for a second that Gui Sheng Xie Yi possessed this ability.

With Gui Sheng Xie Yi's ability, if he simply found a few influential people to take action, the Nether Three Sects would be unable to fend them off.

Not to mention anything else, even if he just agreed to Jian Wuya and Liu Jinzi's request to treat their illnesses, whether anyone from the Nether Three Sects could escape if those two took action was another matter entirely.

Jian Wuya, Liu Jinzi, and Gui Sheng Xie Yi were all at the Void Piercing Peak Stage of cultivation; crushing them would not be a problem.

Not only him, but Ming Zhentian was also so angry that his eyes were splitting.

Including all the cultivators from the Nether Three Sects present, they were so angry that their eyes were about to pop out.

Yet under these circumstances, they were afraid they would not be able to leave, being held firmly in the palm of this sixteen-year-old boy's hand.

Lu Tianyu let out a cold snort: "Opening the Bahuang Demon-Suppressing Array for one day requires two mid-grade spirit veins; twenty days requires a total of forty."

"To prevent you from continuing to launch sneak attacks, we must keep it open for at least two more months, which requires at least one hundred and twenty mid-grade spirit veins."

"My demands are not high; as long as you bring out one Top-grade Spirit Vein as compensation, this matter will be considered settled."

"The remaining twenty will be waived."

"I haven't even asked you for the costs regarding the people who were scared to death while you besieged the Bahuang Star Domain, nor for the mental distress damages caused."

Lu Tianyu reached out his hand: "I will give you one quarter of an hour to consider; if you do not agree, the plan to annihilate the Nether Three Sects will officially begin."

As soon as these words were spoken, Zong Tianling immediately flew into a rage: "You brat, you are truly asking for the moon!"

"You think my Nether Three Sects have no one and no backing? You are wrong!"

He could no longer control himself at all and was about to explode completely.

What mental distress damages, what people scared to death?

This was purely fabricating something out of nothing and making an exorbitant demand!

This was clearly naked extortion, no different from robbing them!

How could he possibly endure this!
