“Two conditions?” Hearing this, the crowd frowned slightly, displeased at being strong-armed by a junior, but they still asked, “What conditions? Go ahead and tell us.”
“The first condition: I want to strip this person of their right to claim the treasure.” Chu Feng pointed at Li Taiyi and said, “If someone who gravely injured my clan’s leader can still share in this treasure, then I see no reason to break this formation.”
“This…”
At that moment, the crowd exchanged glances. Chu Feng’s reasoning was sound and understandable.
“Little friend Chu Feng, I agree to this condition, but this treasure isn’t entirely under my Wuma Heavenly Clan’s control anymore, so it depends on everyone’s opinion,” the Wuma Heavenly Clan leader said.
“Lord Liangqiu Chengfeng, what do you think…” The crowd turned their eyes to Liangqiu Chengfeng.
No one wanted to offend Li Taiyi, so they hoped Liangqiu Chengfeng would decide.
“Someone who harms an ally should naturally lose their share,” Liangqiu Chengfeng said, looking at Chu Feng. “Little friend Chu Feng, rest assured… I’ll ensure you get justice on this.”
“Hmph.” Li Taiyi let out a displeased snort, his face full of anger, but he didn’t say more.
Among those present, he wasn’t even particularly afraid of Song Boqiu, but facing Liangqiu Chengfeng, he didn’t dare speak out.
Be it strength or the power backing him, Liangqiu Chengfeng was someone he couldn’t afford to cross.
“Little friend Chu Feng, what’s the second condition?” the crowd asked eagerly.
“The second condition requires all the seniors here to hand over the cultivation resources you took from those walls.” Chu Feng spoke while glancing at the surrounding walls.
“What?” Hearing this, the faces of the prominent figures darkened.
The juniors might not know what cultivation resources Chu Feng referred to, but they knew full well.
Those were rare cultivation resources, how could they possibly give them up?
“Little friend Chu Feng, I don’t understand what you’re talking about,” someone said.
“Senior, no need to play dumb. I know exactly what those cultivation resources on the walls look like,” Chu Feng replied.
He did know. Since entering this place, Chu Feng had sensed the real presence of those resources, now gone, likely taken by someone.
From the reactions of those present, Chu Feng deduced that the resources had been divided among them.
“Hmph, Chu Feng, before we came here, we agreed that whatever benefits we gained inside would depend on our own abilities.”
“There were indeed some cultivation resources here, and yes, we took them, but we earned them with our own skills. Why should we give them to you?” an old man said coldly.
“Exactly, Chu Feng… stripping Li Taiyi of his share was already giving you plenty of face. Don’t push it with unreasonable demands.”
The crowd began to criticize Chu Feng.
It was no surprise, this touched on their interests, so they wouldn’t comply easily.
“That senior just said he earned those resources with his own ability and asked why he should give them to me.”
“Here, I’d like to ask: if it weren’t for me, Chu Feng, breaking that main formation, could any of you have opened the barrier to enter this place?” Chu Feng questioned.
“Hmph, you think breaking the main formation was all your doing? Didn’t my clan’s juniors contribute too?”
“Chu Feng, you didn’t inherit your father’s exceptional talent, but you sure inherited his arrogance. Let me advise you: no one here will hold it against you today, but outside this place, no one will tolerate this flaw of yours. If you don’t repent, you’ll suffer a big loss sooner or later.”
The crowd mocked Chu Feng’s words with sneers and jeers.
“Hahaha…”
But faced with their taunts, Chu Feng didn’t get angry, instead, he burst into laughter.
Seeing Chu Feng suddenly laughing, the prominent figures were taken aback, puzzled by his reaction.
Amid their confusion, Chu Feng spoke again, “It’s not that I’m conceited, nor do I deny the efforts of my peers, but you can ask them: who was it that broke the main formation and got us here safely?”
At these words, the juniors of the clans lowered their heads, knowing full well that without Chu Feng, they wouldn’t have made it this far, let alone broken the main formation.
“Seniors, to be fair, without Chu Feng, we wouldn’t be standing here, and right now, breaking this formation still depends on him. I don’t think his request is unreasonable,” Liangqiu Lanyue said at that moment.
“My sister’s absolutely right. No offense to you seniors, but you should know in your hearts how much effort you actually put into getting here,” Liangqiu Hongyue added.
“Lord Liangqiu Chengfeng, what do you think…” The crowd turned to Liangqiu Chengfeng, hoping he’d back them up.
“Handle this among yourselves,” Liangqiu Chengfeng said.
“Little friend Chu Feng, why are you so greedy?” someone asked Chu Feng.
“Greedy?” Chu Feng smiled faintly, then said, “It’s just a condition. If you seniors think it’s not worth it, feel free to ignore me.”
“But there’s one thing I need to remind you of: this ancient ruin has been opened, and if no one claims the treasure within three days, it’ll vanish,” Chu Feng said.
“What?” Hearing this, the crowd’s expressions changed dramatically, and they looked to Liangqiu Chengfeng, asking, “Lord Liangqiu Chengfeng, is that true?”
“Indeed, or else… I wouldn’t have entrusted little friend Chu Feng to break this formation for me,” Liangqiu Chengfeng confirmed.
“This…” At that moment, the prominent figures’ faces turned exceptionally grim.
They were in agony, people of their stature had never been strong-armed by a junior before.
But what left them most powerless was that, faced with this junior’s demands, they had no choice but to comply!!!
