Pill Saint, Weapon Emperor, Array God, Unparalleled in the World

He had seen it coming a long time ago.

There were two young people in this team who were quite talented, but he didn't expect that they were from the Fierce Blade Sect.

That's one of the top sects in the Northern Region.

Lei Zheng cursed inwardly.

No wonder Luo Chen asked me and Miss Tang to guard the gate.

It turns out they've offended someone from a major sect.

With his knack for causing trouble, ordinary guards really couldn't keep an eye on him.

If you replace them with two ordinary guards, their mere reputations would be enough to scare people into submission.

Good job, kid.

Ning Fei nodded: "Yes, please do me the honor of informing them, Uncle."

Lei Zheng glanced at Tang Yan.

Tang Yan nodded: "I'll go and inform the family head."

After saying that, he turned around and walked into the mansion.

I didn't even glance at these people once from beginning to end.

Gu Yuanjie stared at Tang Yan's retreating figure, his teeth itching with rage.

What's with this gatekeeper girl acting so arrogantly?

Lei Zheng withdrew his gaze, looked at Ning Fei, and gave a faint smile.

"As fellow disciples of the Fierce Blade Sect, young lady's composure far surpasses that of some others."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanjie's face darkened again.

"If you hadn't refused to open the door, I wouldn't be in this situation."

Lei Zheng glanced at him disdainfully.

"You are nothing but a useless piece of trash who bullies others by relying on your power. Even if you are a disciple of the Fierce Blade Sect, I will not give you a second glance."

"You, you!"

Gu Yuanjie was so angry that his hands were trembling. He gripped the knife handle repeatedly, wishing he could chop the old man to pieces with one stroke.

But Ning Fei was standing to the side, and he didn't dare to make a move.

Ning Fei's status in the sect is higher than his, and her cultivation is stronger than his. If things really get out of hand, he won't gain any advantage.

Besides, this time I need her help.

"Junior Brother Gu, don't be impatient. We can talk about it after we see Luo Chen."

Ning Fei frowned, her tone clearly showing displeasure.

Gu Yuanjie gritted his teeth and suppressed his anger.

Another young disciple stepped forward and cupped his hands in greeting to Ning Fei.

This man had fair skin and always had a smile on his lips; he looked much more refined than Gu Yuanjie.

"Senior Sister, Junior Brother Gu has only recently joined the sect, so his temperament is naturally a bit lacking. But Luo Chen has really gone too far. It's just a small grudge between the two families, yet he's already making outrageous demands, asking for six million spirit stones. Anyone would find it hard to remain calm after being humiliated like that. Senior Sister, don't you think so?"

Gu Yuanjie was overjoyed upon hearing this.

Last night's party was worth it.

He was served good wine, good food, and good girls all night in the brothel, and sure enough, Hu Fei spoke up for him.

Gu Dingshan quickly stepped forward and bowed deeply to Ning Fei and Hu Fei.

"I implore Miss Ning and Young Master Hu to do justice for my Gu family."

Hu Fei smiled confidently.

"Patriarch Gu, rest assured, with my senior sister and I here today, no matter how arrogant Luo Chen is, he will have to give face to my Fierce Blade Sect. Your grudges with the Luo family can definitely be resolved."

He spoke with certainty.

Six million spirit stones? Are you kidding me?

When I see Luo Chen later, I'll reveal the name of the Fierce Blade Sect. I don't believe he won't give me face.

A country bumpkin from a remote town dares to challenge the Fierce Blade Sect?

Ning Fei frowned slightly, but did not say anything more.

She always felt that things weren't that simple.

Anyone who dares to ask for six million spirit stones is either crazy or truly confident.

She wanted to see what kind of person Luo Chen really was.

Lei Zheng watched this scene with a cold smile that others couldn't understand.

Although he didn't know what grudge Luo Chen had with the Gu family, the kid was definitely not one to back down from trouble.

Whether they will give the Fierce Blade Sect face is really hard to say.

I waited for quite a while.

Tang Yan went inside and never came out again, and Luo Chen was nowhere to be seen either.

Lei Zheng wondered to himself, what exactly is this kid up to?

It's only a short walk to give a heads-up, how could they just disappear without a trace?

The faces of the Gu family members were so black they looked like ink could be squeezed out.

Gu Dingshan stood with his hands behind his back at the bottom of the steps, tapping his fingers absently, the rhythm gradually increasing.

Gu Yuanjie gripped the knife handle, his knuckles cracking.

The guards behind him clenched their fists, glared, and snorted heavily.

Gu Yuanjie was feeling a surge of anger in his chest that he couldn't suppress. He opened his mouth several times, but when he thought of how Ning Fei had scolded him in public, he swallowed it back down.

He stole a glance at Ning Fei; his senior sister's face was ashen, and he didn't dare to lose his temper.

Some people can endure it, while others can't.

Hu Fei stepped forward, his face drooping.

"What does this Patriarch Luo mean? Is he deliberately leaving us hanging here?"

He was a disciple of the Fierce Blade Sect, after all.

Wherever I go, I'm treated like royalty. This is the first time I've been blocked outside a door and left to wait, not even allowed to enter.

Ning Fei looked at Lei Zheng.

"Uncle, please inform them again that if we still can't see Patriarch Luo, we'll have to go in and find him ourselves."

The words were still polite, but the tone was no longer soft.

Lei Zheng shook his head.

"Since even Miss Tang can't invite the head of the family, there's no point in me going. You can either continue waiting or go back."

Gu Dingshan couldn't hold on any longer.

As the dignified head of the Gu family, he was a prominent figure within a hundred miles. Today, he had specially invited a high-ranking disciple from the Fierce Blade Sect to oversee things, but he was treated like a dried duck, left standing at the doorway to be exposed to the wind.

How can I swallow this insult?

He suddenly looked up and roared at the gate of the Luo family compound, "Luo Chen, you are far too arrogant! How dare you refuse entry to a esteemed disciple of the Fierce Blade Sect! This is utterly outrageous!"

We finally managed to invite the people from the Fierce Blade Sect, and now we're just going back like this? What are we going to do about the six million spirit stones?

How will he explain this to the old lady when he gets back?

With dozens of members in the Gu family, could they really sell everything they own to raise these spirit stones?

Even so, we still can't raise the money!

No sooner had the words been spoken than a voice came from inside the courtyard.

"Who's barking like a dog here? Can't even let someone squat in the latrine comfortably? Do they want to eat shit?"

Then Luo Chen walked out of the doorway, with Tang Yan following behind him.

As Luo Chen walked, he straightened his cuffs, looking like he had just finished using the outhouse.

Tang Yan tried to suppress her smile, but ultimately couldn't, and her lips curled upwards slightly.

The head of this household really has no self-control; he just blurts out whatever comes to mind.

I used to think he was unfathomable, but now I think he's just a street urchin, yet he's also incredibly endearing.

Gu Dingshan was so angry that his lips trembled and his white beard shook.

He had lived most of his life, and this was the first time someone had ever called him a "barking dog" or "eating shit" to his face.

Gu Yuanjie let out a heavy snort, took a step forward, and the veins on his hand on the hilt of his sword bulged.

"Luo Chen, you finally dare to show your face. I thought you were going to be a coward for the rest of your life."

He looked at Luo Chen with a cold smile.

Although it was their first meeting, judging from the tone of his voice, there was no one else like him in the entire Great Wilderness City.

Luo Chen glanced at Gu Yuanjie.

Their gaze lingered on his face for less than a moment before shifting to Gu Dingshan beside him.

"Patriarch Gu, you've brought all six million spirit stones?"
