I was just collecting them casually, how did the disciples become emperors?

Seeing that he was sincere in his words, the head manager gave him another reminder.

Ximen Feixue thanked the shopkeeper again and said, "I'll keep your reminder in mind. I'll be there on time in three days to see how things develop. I've troubled you for so long today, so I'll take my leave now."

After returning to Tongtian Peak, Ximen Feixue told Ye Xinghe everything he saw and heard in Longzang Pavilion.

After hearing this, Ye Xinghe's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said to Ximen Feixue, "Disciple, you did well this time. Since they set up this trap, we will go meet them in three days."

Three days later, the sun shone through the dense branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows.

Ye Xinghe brought Zhao Changsheng and Ximen Feixue to the vicinity of Qingfeng Pavilion early. They moved as fast as lightning and hid on a big tree with lush branches and leaves, watching the movements in the pavilion from a high vantage point.

Sure enough, not long after, people from Longzang Pavilion hurried over carrying a box.

The box was sealed with layers of restrictions, and one could feel the extraordinaryness of the things inside, but it was far inferior to the treasure that the system gave Ye Xinghe.

The thing in here must be the Chaos Spirit Pearl.

Everyone in Longzang Pavilion looked nervous, their eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly as they carefully placed the box on the stone table in the pavilion.

Then they dispersed and hid behind the surrounding grass and trees, apparently waiting for the other party to the transaction.

Not long after, the figures of the two parties in the transaction gradually appeared outside Qingfeng Pavilion.

I saw a group of people walking from the east. They were wearing robes similar to those worn by disciples of Tongtian Peak, but the texture and workmanship of the robes were a bit rough, obviously counterfeit.

Behind him followed several ferocious-looking followers, each of them exuding a ruffian air.

The big man swaggered into Qingfeng Pavilion and took a look at the box on the stone table.

Upon seeing this, the head shopkeeper of Longzang Pavilion hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Brother, are you the envoy sent by Master Ye Xinghe of Tongtian Peak? Today is the agreed time for the transaction. The items are already here. Take a look..."

The large man casually sat on a stone bench, crossed his legs, and said, "Boss, although this Chaos Spirit Pearl is a good thing, I have carefully considered it these past few days and feel that the price seems a bit too high."

"Master Ye Feng has instructed that if the price is unreasonable, the deal will not be done."

When the head shopkeeper heard this, his face changed slightly and he quickly said, "Brother, this price was already agreed upon before, and you've also paid a deposit. How can you change your mind at the last minute?"

"My Longzang Pavilion is reputable in this town. If you change the agreement so casually, it will be bad for Tongtian Peak's reputation if it gets out."

The big man smiled disapprovingly and said, "Boss, don't try to pressure me with Tongtian Peak. Although this Chaos Spirit Pearl is precious, its market value is uncertain right now."

"Maybe in a few days, we'll be able to find a cheaper source. Besides, our Peak Master is a well-known figure in the Holy Land. If you, the Dragon Hidden Pavilion, are sensible, you should give us a preferential price. Otherwise... humph!"

When the people from Longzang Pavilion saw this scene, they knew it was obvious that they wanted to shirk their debt!

One of the young men couldn't help but say, "How could you do this? This is business, and honesty is everything. If you didn't want to buy, you shouldn't have come to the appointment, and why would you pay a deposit? Now you're trying to cheat? No way!"

"How dare you talk back to me, you little brat? Do you know who I am? I am the confidant of Ye Xinghe, the Peak Master of Tongtian Peak. If you from Longzang Pavilion offend me, you will be killed by Tongtian Peak!"

When the big man heard this, his face suddenly darkened. He stood up suddenly and cursed at the guy.

Seeing the situation getting a bit out of control, the head shopkeeper at Longzang Pavilion quickly stepped forward, grabbed the clerk, and said with an apologetic smile, "Brother, don't be angry. We can discuss this. We can discuss the price later. But you know the value of this Chaos Spirit Pearl, so we really can't lower it too much."

When the big man saw that the people from Longzang Pavilion refused to give in, his face instantly became ferocious. He suddenly jumped up and stretched out his hand to grab the Chaos Spirit Pearl on the stone table.

His movements were as swift as a tiger, and he obviously wanted to snatch the Chaos Spirit Pearl away directly.

The head shopkeeper was shocked when he saw this and immediately shouted, "Stop him!"

The guards of Longzang Pavilion reacted quickly, drawing their weapons and rushing towards the big man.

The big man roared, and the long sword in his hand danced like a silver light curtain, forcing the approaching guards to retreat.

A guard seized the opportunity and attacked from the side, and the long sword in his hand stabbed at the big man's waist like a poisonous snake.

The big man noticed the movement behind him, turned around abruptly, and hit the guard's sword hard with the blade. With a loud "clang", the guard's sword was broken into two pieces.

The big man took advantage of the situation and kicked out, hitting the guard in the chest. The guard flew backwards, fell heavily to the ground, and spit out blood.

Seeing that the situation was critical, the chief manager shot blue spiritual light blades towards the big man.

The big man couldn't dodge in time and was scratched on the arm by a beam of light, and blood oozed out instantly.

He was furious, his eyes were red, he locked onto the chief shopkeeper's position and rushed towards him desperately.

The shopkeeper dodged sideways, but the big man made a feint and stabbed the shopkeeper in the abdomen with his backhand.

The head shopkeeper was unable to dodge and was stabbed by the long knife, and his clothes were stained with blood.

He covered his wound in pain, but the big man approached him and said viciously: "Remember, this is the hand of Tongtian Peak. If you dare to pursue it, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

At this critical moment, a figure rushed over like lightning.

Zhao Changsheng arrived!

He looked at the injured shopkeeper and the arrogant man with a stern gaze, and shouted angrily, "Stop being so arrogant!"

The big man turned his head and saw Zhao Changsheng, and snorted disdainfully.

"Kid, where did you come from? Get out of here now and don't meddle in other people's business, or I'll get rid of you too!"

Zhao Changsheng said loudly with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, "You keep saying that you are from Tongtian Peak, but I am a disciple of Tongtian Peak. Why don't you even recognize me? Isn't this the biggest joke in the world!"

The big man was slightly startled, then he said with a specious excuse, "How should I know you? There are so many disciples in Tongtian Peak, how can I know them all? Don't try to scare me with this, kid, if you know what's good for you, leave now, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Zhao Changsheng just thought it was ridiculous.

He always thought that his master must like quietness, otherwise there would not be only three of them in Tongtian Peak.

In order to show off his power, the big man shouted loudly, gathered his strength with both palms, and slammed the stone table beside him.

There was a loud "bang" and the solid stone table instantly turned into countless pieces of broken stone that flew everywhere, and the air was filled with smoke and dust.

The big man thought he could intimidate Zhao Changsheng with this, and a smug grin appeared on his face.

However, Zhao Changsheng simply shook his head and said loudly, "You're just bluffing. It just so happens that I recently learned the art of controlling fire, but I haven't had the chance to practice it properly. I'm curious what would happen if this fire burned someone."

Han was completely enraged by Zhao Changsheng's words. He roared and pounced on Zhao Changsheng like a mad beast.

His speed was so fast that it caused a whistling sound, and the long sword in his hand was raised high.

Zhao Changsheng was not in a hurry.

Just as the big man was about to pounce on him, he gently waved his palm, and the faint flame that was originally flickering in his palm instantly turned into a fire snake that snaked up his arm.

The fire snake precisely wrapped around the big man's hair and instantly caught fire.

The big man felt a sharp pain in his scalp and a burning smell hit his nose.

He screamed in fear and frantically tried to slap the flames above his head with his hands, but the fire grew more and more intense and could not be put out at all.

Under the scorching flames, the big man rolled on the ground in pain, completely unable to attack Zhao Changsheng anymore. He kept begging for mercy: "Please spare my life, please spare my life! Put out the fire quickly!"

When his followers saw their boss in such a miserable state, they all became confused. Some wanted to rush up to help put out the fire, but were too scared by the fire to dare to get close.

Seeing the man in such a state of disarray from the flames, Zhao Changsheng took the opportunity to step forward, pressing his sword to the man's throat. He demanded in a cold voice, "Tell me! Why are you pretending to be disciples of Tongtian Peak? Who ordered you to do this? If you tell me a lie, today will be your death!"
