C157 Compensation
Then, Leng Xiu said to Gu Yuan, "Gu Yuan, since the two families have agreed, let them go today. Don't worry, I, Leng Family, will be responsible for collecting these 400 high grade spirit stones.
This was a test to test Gu Yuan's attitude towards their Leng Family.
After all, four hundred high grade spirit stones was not a small amount in any force.
Leng Family was one of the Four Great Families. If that was the case, Gu Yuan was still willing to hand this matter over to Leng Family. This meant that for Gu Yuan, Leng Family was still something he could trust.
If he refused, it meant that because of what happened before, Gu Yuan's attitude towards Leng Family had changed. This was what Leng Xiu didn't want to see.
Hearing Leng Xiu's suggestion, Gu Yuan nodded and said, "Then I'll be troubling you."
Leng Xiu let out a sigh of relief again and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
It could be said that, in the events that happened today, Leng Family was the only thing that benefited the Four Great Clans.
Not only did he praise Gu Yuan, a young man with a terrifying potential, but he also did not lose anything.
Leng Xiu couldn't help but be unhappy.
Seeing that things had already settled down, Liu Yilong and Zhao Chuan knew that it was useless to say anything now.
The two of them greeted Leng Xiu briefly, then left with their subordinates in dejection.
As for the people from the Qin Family, they stood in place without daring to move.
They had seen the battle before and Gu Yuan's display of power after he defeated the Liu and Zhao Family's joint attack. They had even seen the two families suffering damage. In their eyes, Gu Yuan was more terrifying than a demon.
Qin Bo had fainted right from the start of the battle due to his injuries. However, due to Gu Yuan's deterrence, no one from the Qin Family dared to take care of him.
At this moment, Qin Bo was still lying there alone.
Gu Yuan arrived in front of Qin Bo. Without caring if Qin Bo was severely injured or not, Gu Yuan directly kicked him.
The kick was very forceful. Qin Bo groaned in pain and opened his eyes.
The moment he woke up, he saw Gu Yuan, who was standing in front of him.
"You, why aren't you dead yet!" Obviously, even in his dreams, Qin Bo was looking forward to Gu Yuan's death.
At this time, Leng Xiu also walked over. Hearing Qin Bo's words, he couldn't help but feel sad for Qin Family.
They already knew that the domineering nature of Qin Family would harm them sooner or later, but they never thought that it would happen so quickly.
Qin Family... I'm afraid it's the end.
Since Qin Family had already reached its end, Leng Xiu was too lazy to plead for them anymore, so he just stood to the side and watched coldly from the side.
Bang!
With another kick, he used even more force this time and directly kicked Qin Bo away.
Gu Yuan said, "You're not dead yet, so why am I not dead? Not only am I not dead, I'm also alive and well!"
Qin Bo looked at Gu Yuan, and the hatred in his eyes seemed to have become real. Standing at the back, each and every one of them bowed their heads like a quail from the Qin Family people as they roared: "Are you just going to watch him insult me?! "Hurry up and attack, teach this brat a lesson!"
Hearing Qin Bo's words, not only did no one from Qin Family come forward to help, they were all so frightened that they trembled.
One of the Qin Family people hesitated for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to walk out. He said to Qin Bo who was lying on the ground with his eyes almost popping out: "Qin Bo, let's give up. We can't afford to offend him."
"What did you say!?" You piece of trash, say it again if you dare! " The moment Qin Bo heard this, he roared furiously.1
The person from Qin Family seemed to have been scared by Qin Bo's angry roar, his face immediately turned red, and seemed to be angry, his voice was no longer as timid as before, but instead spoke confidently to Qin Bo: "Just now when you were unconscious, you did not see, this Gu …"
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Yuan as if he didn't know how to address him.
Leng Xiu shook his head and sighed. He continued, "Qin Bo, for the sake of the four great families at the same time, I'll let you die today."
"The Liu and Zhao Family were already defeated by Brother Gu and are willing to compensate with 200 high grade spirit stones. Didn't you notice?"
He pointed to Gu Yuan and said, "He has already broken through. Right now, he should be at the Zongshi realm."
Seeing Qin Bo finally notice the development of the situation due to his words, Leng Xiu spoke once again. He said a truth that Qin Bo did not want to know no matter what.
"Also, he just broke through during the battle. Regarding this point, you can ask the people from your Qin Family, they have all seen it with their own eyes."
Qin Bo was shocked to the point that he became numb. The monstrous hatred in his eyes disappeared as he turned his head to look in the direction of the Qin Family people.
What he obtained was a deathly silence.
Although no one from the Qin Family spoke, Qin Bo tragically discovered that all of the Qin Family s no longer had any hatred in their eyes as they looked at Gu Yuan. All that remained was a strong sense of fear.
This was an emotion that had never appeared in the eyes of anyone in the Qin Family before, yet now, it had appeared.
Qin Bo slowly closed his eyes. There was a bit of moisture at the corner of his eyes and he could not help but sigh sorrowfully in his heart. "The Qin Family is finished."
Seeing that Qin Bo seemed to have fallen into despair and his face was ashen, Gu Yuan said, "I can let you go, but like the Liu and Zhao families, you need to give 200 high grade spirit stones as compensation, and in addition to the 90 spirit stones you owe, a total of 290."
Hearing Gu Yuan's words, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said: "It's better that you kill us. If it's a few days ago, our Qin Family might still be able to take it out, but right now, our Qin Family can't even take out 50 high grade spirit stones."
"What?! This is impossible!" Leng Xiu, who was standing at the side, exclaimed in surprise, at the same time, he advised, "Qin Bo, since our four families have always been on good terms with each other, I advise you to settle this matter peacefully. Don't destroy the family foundation for something you don't have!"
These words were heavy, but they were also true.
Leng Xiu believed, based on his understanding, if he did not get the spirit stones as compensation, Gu Yuan would never let this go, and he might even take action to eliminate Qin Family.
Qin Bo shook his head and said, "I know what's important, but we really can't take it out."
Seeing that Leng Xiu still had a face of disbelief, a trace of killing intent appeared in Gu Yuan's eyes.
Qin Bo knew that if he did not give them a satisfactory answer, then perhaps he and the rest of his people would really die here today. It might even implicate the entire family, so he had to explain: "After the True Fire Command Token is destroyed, the Patriarch was afraid that the enemy would receive news to retaliate, so he exhausted most of his family's wealth. I don't know where he bought a high-grade treasure, but I heard that it was also of the fire attribute, and it was compatible with my Qin Family, the Burning Heaven Arts."
Hearing Qin Bo's words, Leng Xiu's face showed a hint of understanding.
