Strange as it was, the man leading the group was not the one who had initially fought with Long Yi over the Elf, but the wealthy man who had later joined forces to bid for the God Chasers against Long Yi.
"It’s quite surprising, I thought you preferred to solve problems with money," Long Yi said with a smile.
"A problem that can be solved with money is generally not a problem. However, it’s quite clear that you are not the kind of person whose problems can be resolved with money," the wealthy man said.
"So, do you intend to resolve this through force?" Long Yi asked.
"We are all civilized people, so it would be better to resolve this in a civilized manner. I guess you are also soone of stature from a great Empire, and it might not be too good for you if sothing unpleasant happens while you and your wife are alone outside," the wealthy man said.
"Since you’ve guessed that I’m soone of stature from a great Empire, aren’t you afraid that I will seek revenge after you block my way like this?" Long Yi’s face still bore a smile, and he appeared completely unconcerned by the Mages eying him fiercely.
"Unless you are from one of the two great Empires, I’m really not afraid of anyone else. And even if you are from one of the two great Empires, it won’t be that easy for you to find after you return," the wealthy man said with a big laugh, and the other wealthy n around him also laughed. After all, this was their turf. It would be one thing if it were mighty armies of the two great Empires, but you’re just a businessman, what’s so impressive about that?
"Well then, it seems that we cannot resolve this matter amicably today, right?"
With that, Long Yi took out the Crystal Stone from his private space, the red energy within it trembling violently. The red energy fluctuations were not out of fear, but out of excitent! Because it felt the Divine Status! That was God! The Master!
"Hand over the Crystal Stone, and we’ll give you one billion. That should compensate for so of your loss. Although it’s not much, it’s sufficient compared to your life, right?" the leading wealthy man said.
"At first glance, what you’re saying seems to make sense. Unfortunately, I’m not interested in your proposal." As he spoke, Long Yi raised the Crystal Stone high in his hand, ready to smash it down.
"Wait a minute! What are you doing!" the wealthy man asked anxiously.
"Are you joking, can’t even see what I’m doing? Of course, I’m going to smash this Crystal Stone," Long Yi said with a smile.
"If you smash the Crystal Stone, the energy inside will be released!" the wealthy man shouted.
"I know, but since it seems like you weren’t planning to let take it, why should I waste my ti here?"
"The energy release could be fatal!" the wealthy man bellowed.
"That’s none of my business!"
Bang!
The Crystal Stone was smashed heavily to the ground, and the red light flashed and disappeared, with nothing happening. Miraculously, the crystal fragnts that were originally on the ground also slowly turned into powder and scattered with the wind, leaving no trace.
Everyone was stunned.
At first, so were worried about feeling discomfort, but soon, only one thought remained in everyone’s mind.
Fifty billion, just like that, smashed!
An entire fifty billion! Smashed without a second thought!
Their eyes bulged as they all stared at Long Yi. Long Yi spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a smile, "Well, what you wanted is no longer in my possession, so what’s the point of continuing to surround ?"
The group of wealthy n looked at each other, Long Yi’s move was just too decisive. He left no room for anyone to react, just smashed it!
"Was that real?" one of the wealthy n asked in a low voice.
"Nonsense, of course, it’s real. Do you think he could replicate sothing like that in a short amount of ti?" another wealthy man said, his heartbeat still not settled.
To be honest, although Long Yi was the one who smashed the Crystal Stone, the other wealthy n felt a palpable sense of shock. It was a whole fifty billion! Fifty billion that hadn’t even ward up in his private space!
The leader of the wealthy n’s eyes twitched, he snorted coldly, and turned to leave. Seeing that the object of their desire was smashed, obviously, there was no need for them to stay. And with their leader gone, the rest naturally had no reason to stay. Long Yi laughed. This move, they probably never saw coming. In fact, at that mont, the God Chasers had already entered his spiritual world. Long Yi’s powerful Divine Status attracted it, making it completely submissive to him.
"Smashing fifty billion with a wave of the hand feels so good," Long Yi said, looking at his hands.
"Next ti, I want to try it too," Ai Lin said with a laugh.
"Good! Next ti you do the smashing!" Long Yi laughed heartily.
"Then, I regret to inform you that if you don’t return my property to , there won’t be a ’next ti’ for you," a voice ca; it was the middle-aged man who had competed with Long Yi for the Elf before.
"Hey, is it an old rule on your planet that whoever is poorer must resort to robbing in the end?" Long Yi mocked.
"You’re blind to the obvious, and you’ve offended soone you shouldn’t have. I don’t know what planet or empire you’re from, but this isn’t your turf, and it’s not your place to call the shots! So, either you hand over the tetrahedron and leave on your own, or you’ll be tortured by us until you wish you could live or die, and in the end, you’ll still have to give the tetrahedron to !" the middle-aged man said viciously.
"How cruel." Long Yi looked around and saw that, indeed, so people had begun to surround them.
"No need to look around, they are all from the Flying Serpent rcenary Corps. Unless you two are Long Yi and Ai Lin, you won’t be able to escape today!" the middle-aged man said.
"If we were Long Yi and Ai Lin, would you still be alive right now?" Long Yi laughed.
"If you were Long Yi and Ai Lin, which item inside this auction house wouldn’t you be able to choose at will? Why bother with bidding? It’s just a pity you’re not! So today, you must leave that tetrahedron behind!"
The reason Long Yi chose not to use his real identity was to prevent certain people from becoming alert. Even if there were so fools who ca to compete with him, although they might not know what the tetrahedron was for, the re thought of so tetrahedrons not ending up in his hands was very frustrating.
"The tetrahedron must not be given to you, so if you have any ans, feel free to use them now." Long Yi was candid, for in this situation, re verbal threats were aningless. If they had the ability, it was ti to show their weapons.
The middle-aged man sneered, waved his hand, and the Flying Serpent rcenary Corps imdiately closed in.
"If you think we have no ability to fight back, you’re sorely mistaken. Since you know we co from a great empire, naturally I wouldn’t co here unprepared!"
With that, Long Yi shouted and took out two magic staves from his personal space, one for himself and one for Ai Lin.
"Floundering at death’s door!"
The mbers of the Flying Serpent rcenary Corps imdiately pounced.
Long Yi and Ai Lin’s combat abilities were much stronger than those of the rcenaries, but they still couldn’t show their full strength. Fortunately, having been experienced in roaming the world for many years, they had the necessary acting skills. They struggled in battle while charging toward the crowded areas. However, the rcenaries from the Flying Serpent rcenary Corps didn’t care about harming the innocents and continued to shoot magic relentlessly. With no other options, Long Yi and Ai Lin could only run to less populated areas.
The middle-aged man followed from a distance, his expression unpleased. He had thought that with the Flying Serpent in action, capturing Long Yi would be a matter of minutes. To his surprise, Long Yi and Ai Lin were extrely slippery, escaping the encirclent multiple tis and fleeing in different directions. Thankfully, he had already arranged things with the City Defense Army and paid a large sum of money, otherwise they would have intervened by now.
But such a situation couldn’t last too long.
Long Yi too was surprised; he had thought that after causing a stir, the City Defense would appear and he could take the chance to leave, but the City Defense showed no signs of action, which suggested they’d been bribed.
However, at this mont, Long Yi was not in a hurry to leave anymore, because he suddenly realized sothing. The adversary had been persistent about the tetrahedron, which indicated that they were either idiots obsessing over previous events, or, from the start, they had targeted the tetrahedron! Moreover, the so-called Flying Serpent rcenary Corps ant to protect the elf beauty must also have been intended for the tetrahedron from the beginning.
Long Yi rembered that during the auction, a fat tycoon said that the opposing party was purchasing the elf beauty for an ancestor who was an ancient powerhouse. But now, it seed that what he actually wanted for the ancient powerhouse was this very tetrahedron!
Why? Did soone know the significance of the tetrahedron?
"Are you thinking the sa thing I am?" Ai Lin suddenly asked Long Yi.
"The ancient powerhouse?"
"Right, I’m considering the role that ancient powerhouse plays in all of this," Ai Lin said.
"This role is not all that glorious; clearly, we should pay a visit to that person," Long Yi said.
"Exactly, maybe he also has another Divine Envoy in his hands!" Ai Lin said.
"Then we..." Long Yi was saying when he suddenly grinned.
Boom!
A magic spell struck down, and Long Yi, failing to dodge in ti, was hit squarely. He and Ai Lin collided, and their staves shattered. Several mbers of the Flying Serpent rcenary Corps rushed up and imdiately used magic to restrain the two of them.
"Perfect!" The middle-aged man waved his fist vigorously with joy.
Long Yi and Ai Lin were escorted to the middle-aged man’s front, and everyone imdiately left the city center and headed to a property in the suburbs.
In the living room, the middle-aged man spoke with the smile of a victor: "Co on, hand over the tetrahedron, and I’ll let you go."
Long Yi laughed with disdain: "Rember, never leave us alive, because if any mber of my family finds out even the slightest bit about what happened to on this planet, I guarantee, you and your family won’t be left with a single brick!"(To be continued.
