Chapter 159 (Edited) Don’t Leave Hatred Until Tomorrow
"Your Tiandao League is now powerful and wealthy, so it's not too much to give an extra 100,000, 300,000 a year. By the way, I'd like to remind you that I represent the Li family today, and what I say also represents the Li family."
Ji Chen tapped the table lightly, "Is this protection money?"
"If you think it's protection money, then it's protection money." Li Yueen said indifferently.
"Oh!" Ji Chen nodded and smiled easily, "That is to say, if I pay this money, I won't be suppressed by other clans or forces anymore. If I have any problems in the future, I can also ask your Li clan to solve them."
"No, no, no!" Li Yueen sneered and said, "This 300,000 is what you should pay to our Li clan. As for whether other clans collect it or not, that is their business. How much they want to collect has nothing to do with my Li clan."
Zhang Shengxiao next to him also said, "How much you pay to the Li clan is your business, but my Zhang clan cannot pay less, also 300,000, and pay on time every year. You annexed the Dahe Gang, this is what you should pay."
Ji Chen turned his head to look at Xi Yuequan, "Then what about the Ximen clan? I didn't touch the Tiejianmen. What's the meaning of the Ximen clan coming to me?"
Ximen Yuequan said, "Although you didn't touch the Tiejianmen, the Tiejianmen's business was damaged because of you. You have to compensate for this loss, so the Ximen clan can't pay less, 300,000."
"That's 900,000!" Ji Chen smiled and tapped the armrest of the chair gently.
As soon as Qian Ping saw Ji Chen's action, he knew that he had the intention to kill.
900,000, this does not include the Mo clan's money, this is the rhythm of forcing the Tiandao League to death. Moreover, the four clans appeared together and put pressure on them together, which was also a warning to them not to think about resistance, and the consequences were not something they could bear.
Qian Ping was a little worried. He was afraid that Ji Chen would choose to take action. With the current strength of the Tiandao League, it had no ability to fight any clan, let alone the four clans together.
The Mo clan had already been offended to death. The most important thing now was to stabilize the other three clans so that they could concentrate on dealing with the pressure from the Mo clan.
Although 900,000 taels of silver was a lot, it could still be taken out by plundering. At least it could get through this year.
So Qian Ping kept winking at Ji Chen, hoping that he would hold back.
Ji Chen finally stopped knocking, as if he had made a decision.
"Since you have finished your demands, let me tell you my conditions."
"From today on, the Heaven Sword Alliance will no longer pay a penny to any of you. On the contrary, you will pay 500,000 protection fees to the Heaven Sword Alliance every year."
When he said this, everyone in the room looked at him in astonishment.
Is this guy crazy?
Qian Ping was also stunned. He also felt that Ji Chen was crazy. You said you would not pay the money, but you asked for money from the clan, 500,000 taels every year.
No, you are crazy!
Zhang Shengxiao sneered disdainfully: "Ji, you are looking for death!"
Li Yueen narrowed her eyes slightly, and her face was also full of disdain.
"Chief Ji, let me remind you to think twice before you act. Be careful of your words. Don't think you are invincible just because you have killed two Nine Heavens strongmen. I am not afraid to tell you that my Li family has a presence beyond the Nine Heavens. Killing you is like killing a dog."
"Letting you control the land of chaos is a sign of respect for you. Don't be shameless. You are a dog. Since you are a dog, you should understand loyalty and rules. Otherwise, we don't mind changing a dog."
Ji Chen chuckled and reached out to touch the single sword next to him.
"Just because of what you said, I think the Li family has no need to exist."
"Hmph! Arrogant!" Li Yueen snorted coldly, with a look of disdain, "I really don't know whether to say that you are a young man with a reckless attitude or that you are shallow-minded. A thousand-year-old family like the Li family is not something that a peasant like you can shake."
"I will relay your words today to the Li family without missing a word, and now I have changed my mind. The fee has increased to 400,000. I will give you half a month to prepare, and I will collect it in half a month."
After saying that, Li Yueen was ready to go out. He didn't want to continue talking nonsense with this peasant, so he directly issued an ultimatum.
"Don't bother you to come back in half a month!" Ji Chen said lightly, "In half a month, I will go to the Li family in person to talk to them. As for you, I don't like you, so you can go to hell!"
As soon as the words fell, the sound of the knife whistled, and a bright knife light illuminated the entire hall.
Pojun unsheathed, split Huashan with force, and the knife whistled like a dragon's roar.
This knife was extremely shocking, and the murderous intent was overwhelming.
Li Yueen was horrified. He only had the cultivation of the eighth heaven. He could not resist this knife at all.
He dared to come to the Heavenly Sword Alliance because he was the steward of the Li clan. Who knew that Ji Bochang would dare to attack him and was not afraid of the clan behind him.
The knife light fell and cut off the long sword in Li Yueen's hand without any suspense, and his body was split in half.
Killing point +8000
Ji Chen's eyes flashed a line of prompts.
At this moment, the whole hall was silent, and everyone was shocked. No one thought that Ji Chen would actually draw a knife to kill people.
Even Qian Ping did not expect that the reason he kept winking at Ji Chen was that he hoped that he could hold back for a while, so that there would be peace and no need to offend several clans at the same time.
Zhang Shengxiao and Ximen Yuequan next to him were also shocked. They did not expect Ji Chen to dare to kill people from the clan.
The Mo family was fine, after all, the Mo family was in trouble now.
But the Li clan was different. The Li clan had an existence beyond the innate. How dare they draw a knife?
This guy is really a madman. He starts hacking people when he disagrees with something, without caring about the consequences at all.
The two of them were a little apprehensive. After all, their cultivation was at the eighth level. If Ji Chen really didn't care about anything, they would die here.
Zhang Shengxiao said hurriedly: "Chief Ji, the grudge between you and the Li family is your own business. I won't get involved. I'll take my leave first."
"I'll take my leave first!" Ximen Yuequan also said.
The two turned around and walked out of the hall, wanting to leave this place.
"Did I let you leave?"
Ji Chen's voice sounded.
The two stopped, their faces somewhat ugly, and looked back at Ji Chen, "What do you mean, do we need your consent to leave?"
Ji Chen flicked the broken saber, "What do you think my Tiandao League is? You can come and go as you please."
"I don't like being threatened, and I don't like to leave hatred until tomorrow."
The two people's faces changed, and Zhang Shengxiao warned: "Ji, you have offended the Mo family and the Li family. If you offend us again, there will be no place for you in the entire chaos. You don't want your Tiandao League to collapse overnight just after its establishment!"
Ji Chen sneered, "If I let you go today, will your two families let me go? There is no room for easing between us, so, go to hell!"
After the words fell, the knife light lit up, and the unparalleled knife energy slashed towards the two people.
The terrifying murderous intent permeated, and the overwhelming pressure swept the entire hall.
