Chapter 259: Chapter 168: Turning Against Each Other
"Fellow Daoist, we are willing to sign a Spirit Contract. The resources borrowed today will be returned with interest in the future!"
The final statent ca from Qin Feng, who spoke solemnly, and the other nine Foundation Establishnt Cultivators also revealed expressions of bitterness as they spoke.
So, after all this, they’re here to borrow Spirit Stones and resources to get through tough tis.
"Brother Lin, does this surnad Qin have a problem with his head? He actually thinks this is such a sweet deal!"
Old Hu secretly transmitted his voice, and all six of them weren’t fools.
Help the opponent get through tough tis?
Especially Lin Chang’an, the mastermind behind all this, who inwardly sneered.
Reap what you sow.
However, if they actually let the other side get through this, leveraging this reputation, they might indeed turn the tables.
After all, being able to honestly deliver the resources even after being plotted against in tandem would naturally attract many people.
"Friend Qin, it’s not that we don’t want to help, but you knew when you ca to our Market earlier that we have significant trade dealings with these rchants.
How could there be so many resources, and with such a major incident, we are being very cautious as well."
Lin Chang’an’s seemingly indifferent tone was actually secretly mocking the despicable acts behind them.
And Old Hu and the others nodded in agreent.
"Indeed, these people had ulterior motives before, and we’ve suffered quite a bit."
"Fellow Daoists, why not try seeking help from other Markets?"
Even Yun Yao coldly said, "We have no ties with you all, and you even secretly tried to poach people from our Market. I don’t need to explain the specifics, do I?"
After Yun Yao, the late-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, spoke coldly, her cold gaze swept over everyone, as if saying, the deeds you’ve done behind the scenes have already been exposed by this group.
At this point, not kicking them while they’re down is already comndable, and yet they still hope for help?
How is that possible!
"Fellow Daoists!"
The faces of Qin Feng and his group turned extrely unpleasant. Being so humiliated, few could endure it, especially as they had staked everything they owned.
Each one was like a desperate person walking the edge of a cliff.
One of the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, with bloodshot eyes, said fiercely, "Patriarch Qin, if you ask , since they don’t want us to have it easy, they shouldn’t expect to have it easy either."
"Right, there’s no way these coincidences happened unless these people were behind the setup of this incident."
With bloodshot eyes and faces full of anger, it was clear they were pushed to a dead end.
Yet, facing such threats, even Old Jia revealed a hint of killing intent.
Old Hu even cursed outright, "That Qin, I knew you weren’t here for anything good, but rather to extort , right?"
"Old Hu should actually thank you all. This group obviously has their sights on us, but you ca with bad intentions, greedy to poach our people, and ended up reaping what you sowed."
Old Hu’s words, though crude, had truth in them. After this incident, many in Celestial Profound City believed that the sche initially targeted the East District Black Market.
But the West District Black Market inadvertently got involved, making many secretly proclaim the East District Market’s six luckier.
Lin Chang’an and others revealed hints of coldness.
The Foundation Establishnt Cultivators from the West District had eyes filled with a hint of desperate madness, while leading Qin Feng hurriedly adopted a deanor of negotiating calmly.
Yet this scene was painfully clear in Lin Chang’an’s eyes.
Just playing good cop, bad cop.
"Fellow Daoists, we ca to gather resources to get through tough tis. Do not act rashly."
"Fellow Daoist Qin, it wasn’t us being impulsive. It’s just how could this incident be such a coincidence."
"Exactly, this incident is too coincidental."
Through playing good cop and bad cop, it clearly emanated a sense of threat.
The ten Foundation Establishnt Cultivators from the West District had all put their entire wealth on the line. If they truly lost everything, they definitely would not make things easy for the East District.
"Look, Old Lin, didn’t you see? This group got greedy and fell into the trap, and yet they’re blaming us."
Old Hu was imdiately furious. How dare they threaten him!
Yet the next mont, before Old Hu could react, a flash of cold light and a gleam of cyan light arrived in an instant.
"Old Lin!"
Old Hu’s eyes widened, but Yun Yao, holding the Cold Spear, didn’t give the opponent a chance to threaten. A gun shadow emitting cold air directly attacked.
"Not good!"
Qin Feng and the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators were astonished and hurriedly activated their Mana Shields. They hadn’t expected the opponent to strike without any agreent.
This left them utterly unprepared.
Lin Chang’an’s Cyan Scale Sword, along with Yun Yao’s actions, showed almost no hesitation.
With a thunderous crash!
The wall of the Black Market’s pavilion shattered, and the figures of Foundation Establishnt Cultivators were sent flying. Simultaneously, the cultivators inside the Black Market exclaid in astonishnt.
"Not good, soone is causing trouble in the Market!"
"Who has such guts?"
"Look, the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators from the West District are causing a ruckus here."
Although the Black Market was less crowded during the day, there were still many cultivators who stayed far away to watch the spectacle unfold.
Amidst the ruins, accompanied by a series of coughs, Qin Feng’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the scene before him.
"How... how could this be!"
The power behind that strike, Qin Feng’s gaze turned fearful. While others might not recognize it, he certainly could. This was Top-Grade Spiritual Artifacts!
And two of them!
For a late-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator to possess one was already remarkable, but for soone surnad Lin to also have one, it seed terribly unfair.
The two Foundation Establishnt Cultivators who had been disrespectful earlier were now lying on the ground in disarray, their eyes filled with fear.
The other newly established Foundation Establishnt Cultivators were in shock and looked on in terror at the scene unfolding before them.
As for their previous anger, it had long dissipated.
Under the spreading chill, a flood dragon slowly descended and transford into a Cold Spear in Yun Yao’s grasp.
