Chapter 295: Actually, I was a victim too


    Trantor: ChibiGeneral Editor: ChibiGeneral


    Bai Feng’s expression was gloomy and his gaze kept on shing. He was thinking of denying this but


    Fang Yuan saw through his n.


    “Don’t even try to cover it, it’s no use. As the spirit spring continues to dry up, the primeval stones


    produced will also decrease sharply. Bai n has been concealing it well, you have either used your


    remaining stock in the storage or traded to fill up this gap. But this will definitely leave traces, as long as


    someone carefully investigates it, they will find out.” Fang Yuan was calm andfortable.


    Bai Feng tightly clenched his fists, ring at Fang Yuan like he wanted to swallow him alive.


    Looking at the appearance of this elder, even a stupid person would realize the truth.


    “Our n’s spirit spring is drying?” Bai Lian was dazed, leaning on her chair listlessly.


    Bai Zhan Lie bit his lips, going silent.


    The others also did not speak, they were astonished and terrified. The atmosphere in the secret room


    turned extremely oppressive.

    “Hehehe.” Fang Yuan chuckled, “Your Bai n is really in danger. Even a stronger n will copse if


    their spirit spring dries up and they don’t find a new spirit spring. Now, you have obtained Bai Gu


    inheritance, the forces around you are all coveting it; tell me, what will happen if I spread this secret


    information?”


    “No!” Bai Lian lost color in her face and immediately interjected.


    The others also thought of the seriousness of the matter and their expressions turned grave.


    Now, Bai n had obtained Bai Gu inheritance, their strength rose due to the benefits gained from


    Fang Yuan’s discovery. The few neighbouringrge ns were staring at them covetously, but also


    held their guard.


    If the news of the spirit spring drying up was exposed, Bai n would lose their deterrence and be


    a paper tiger; the surrounding forces were sure to make their move!


    Those forces would never want to see Bai n survive this ordeal and because of the Bai Gu


    inheritance, rise in power and suppress them.


    Hence, this information had to be guarded!


    Bai n’s gang were startled awake by Fang Yuan, gaining some understanding of the situation. Bai


    Zhan Lie and others fixed their gazes at Fang Yuan, their eyes shining even more fiercely and emitted


    killing intent.


    “Want to kill me?” Fang Yuan sneered and shook his finger, “Since I am meeting with you alone, I have


    naturally made thorough preparations. In truth, if you hadn’te to find me, I would have gone to find


    you.”


    These were not senseless words. The Bai nsmen had no choice but to restrain their killing intent and


    retract the ominous glint in their eyes.


    “Alright, let’s get down to business now.” The corner of Fang Yuan’s lips slightly curled up as he


    adjusted his sitting posture.


    He pointed his hands down and said: “Take a seat and let’s discuss it.”


    “Discuss what, what’s there to talk about with you? Hmph!” Bai Feng’s expression was gloomy, but


    despite saying so, he still sat down.


    The remaining nsmen hesitated for a while before sitting down.


    The tense situation immediately eased a little.


    “Of course we are going to discuss the fees to keep me silent. Was it easy for me to lead you here?


    Wasting my time and energy, you shouldpensate me! Primeval stones, I want primeval stones.


    Give me three million primeval stones and I can promise you I won’t reveal this information.”


    The Bai nsmen immediately stood up again when they heard Fang Yuan.


    “You dare to threaten us!”


    “You killed our two young n leaders, and dare to demand primeval stones?!”


    “Fang Zheng, don’t go too far. At worst, I will stake my old life and take you down with me!!”


    The group roared and growled in anger.


    “Hahaha.” Fang Yuan threw his head back andughed. He then stood up and a cold light blossomed


    in his dark eyes as he looked at the group.


    “That’s right, I am threatening you! You don’t agree? Then I will simply leak this information. What did


    you say, you want to die together with me? Hmph, even if I die, this information will be leaked to the


    world. At that time, you will be the sinners of the n; because you didn’t agree to my request,


    your n will be besieged by the surrounding forces!”


    “You, you, you…” Elder Bai Feng was angered to his limit as he speechlessly pointed at Fang Yuan.


    The other nsmen also red at Fang Yuan with furious eyes while gritting their teeth, but no one


    moved.


    “You what?” Fang Yuan sneered at Bai Feng, his tone full of disdain, “What can you do to me? Kill me?


    I have a purple thorn token, do you dare to try it? I know you are all courageous, not afraid of death.


    But your n is the most important. If your family and friends die, it will be all because of you!”


    The Bai nsmen clenched their fists, standing stunned on the spot.


    “Ahh—!” Bai Zhan Lie suddenly raised his head and shouted, he then lifted his fist and smashed it


    down.


    Due to his furious punch, the whole banquet table was smashed and the dishes crashed to the ground.


    He felt deep hatred!


    His grandfather Bai Zhan Wen had died because of Fang and Bai. This hatred was irreconcble!


    Because of this, he joined the pursuit group, constantly running about, now that he finally found the


    killer…


    The enemy was clearly in front of him, but he could not do anything! Fang Yuan was clearly within his


    reach, but he could not exact revenge!


    Not only could he not exact revenge, he still had to endure Fang Yuan’s threat.


    His chest burned with anger, an anger that threatened to burn the sky and was already burning his


    heart. But he could not move, he did not dare to imagine the consequences if he moved. His life was a


    minor thing, but the whole n might face a cmity because of him!!


    “No need to get angry. Actually, in this whole event, I was also a victim.” Fang Yuan’s tone rxed and


    said with a sigh.


    “Just think of it, Bai Gu inheritance was originally mine, but your Bai n stole it from me. Your Bai n


    chased after me and Bai Ning Bing, we were forced to kill Bai Hua and Bai Sheng to make it easier to


    escape. Later, I suffered serious injuries andnded on Zi You mountain, having close encounter with


    death all along the way. Do you think it was easy for me?”


    “Your Bai n’s power is huge and I can’t afford to offend it. I could only curl up in Shang n city, but


    you still won’t let me go. Tell me, what should I do? I am not someone who is unreasonable, three


    million primeval stones, that is the lowest I will go. I am very sincere, I have told this secret to only a


    few people and haven’t spread it outside. I also intentionally sent the Tie nsman outside in


    consideration for your Bai n.”


    Fang Yuan’s expression was very sincere.


    “Three million primeval stones, you are demanding an exorbitant price!”


    “Fang Zheng, let’s be fair, how did our Bai n treat you! We treated you nicely with food and


    aodation, but what came out of it? You repaid our kindness with enmity!”


    “Our n’s two young n leaders died in your hands, elder Bai Zhan Wen also died because of you.


    Many of our expert nsmen also died or got seriously handicapped while protecting you on your


    travels around Bai Gu mountain!”


    The Bai n’s group all had different expressions; some were extremely angry, some were sneering


    and some were crying, but they all had a simrity — their deep hatred towards Fang Yuan!


    Fang Yuan’s expression changed, he gave a cold smile: “It seems you are still not aware of the


    situation, I tried to give you face, but you don’t want it? Very well.”


    Fang Yuan stood up and turned to leave.


    Bai nsmen immediately fell into panic.


    “Wait, wait a moment.” Bai Feng was desperate as he sidestepped and blocked Fang Yuan.


    “I will tell you honestly, I am going to go sell this information now. I believe Shang n’s Feng Yu Manor


    will give a good price for it. Can you guess how much they are going to pay me?” Fang Yuan smiled


    sinisterly.


    “Fang Zheng, don’t go too far!” Bai Zhan Lie roared and quickly walked towards Fang Yuan and stared


    at him dead on.


    Fang Yuan nonchntly said: “You want to attack me? You want to put your n in danger?”


    Bai Zhan Lie’s inner fire was stumped, as he stood stunned.


    p!


    Fang Yuan took this chance and pped. He was very strong and with just a little strength, he sent the


    energetic Bai Zhan Lie retreating five to six steps.


    “What do you think you are doing?!” Bai nsmen immediately red up and surrounded Fang Yuan.


    “Do you all want to be the sinners of your n?” Fang Yuan snorted, his words were like ice,


    dousing the Bai nsmen’s surging anger.


    “You unappreciative scum.” Fang Yuan pointed at Bai Zhan Lie, “If I don’t teach you a lesson, do you


    really think you are the Heavenly Emperor?”


    Fang Yuan showed no restraint in berating Bai Zhan Lie in front of the Bai nsmen.


    He next looked at everyone: “You are all idiots! If I wanted Bai n to face a cmity, it just takes one


    sentence from me! A wise man sumbs to circumstances , you still can’t see the situation clearly?


    Make a move if you want. Come, even if I die, having your Bai n apany me in death won’t be


    so bad.”


    Fang Yuan waspletely surrounded, but his attitude was still unbridled.


    Instead it was Bai nsmen, who were bigger in numbers, that had to give in while gritting their teeth


    and clenching their fists.


    Bai Zhan Lie held his swollen face, his eyes bloodshot. This humiliation almost caused the anger in his


    his heart to burst up to the nine heavens. The veins in his forehead bulged out as he tried his best to


    maintain the final sliver of reason left in his mind.


    The n was their weak spot; Fang Yuan targeted this and also showed an attitude that was unafraid


    of death, causing Bai n fall into a hopeless situation where they could only tolerate Fang Yuan.


    “I will give you thirty breaths of time to consider.” Fang Yuan continued.


    The group of Bai nsmen immediately fell into a struggle.


    They did not want to lower their heads to Fang Yuan, this murderer. However, if they did not lower their


    heads, their n would be in danger.


    They were at a loss and all of them looked towards elder Bai Feng.


    Bai Feng’s clenched fists slowly loosened before he again clenched them and unclenched after a while.


    This continued again and again, showing the struggle in his heart.


    Thirty breaths of time passed by, but Fang Yuan looked like he had forgotten it.


    Bai Feng was impatient, but he only opened his mouth after five minutes, breaking the silence.


    “Three million… is too much. We can’t agree to this. Moreover, we don’t have that much money on us!”


    His voice was hoarse like a guy who was about to die of thirst in desert.


    He listlessly loosened his hands, having no more strength to clench them again.


    For the n, he had no choice but to give priority to the overall situation. Despite wishing he could cut


    Fang Yuan into pieces, he chose to lower his head for the moment.


    The other Bai nsmen also felt their hearts relieved after hearing his words. Their killing intent


    towards Fang Yuan sank into the shadows, bing thicker and deeper.


    Fang Yuanughed: “The three million does not need to be paid in full, just take it slowly, for now hand


    over five hundred thousand.”


    “Five hundred thousand? Why would we carry so many primeval stones with us?!” Bai Feng refuted.


    Fang Yuan’s brows raised: “You can borrow from loan sharks, pawn your belongings or even sell Gu


    worms… no matter what you do, I need five hundred thousand primeval stones within a day. Moreover,


    I do not want to see any of Bai n’s people staying in Shang n city!”
