"Alright, I'm not here to watch you argue."
Qian Xunfeng waved his hand and said with a faint smile, "I hope your clan can give us reasonable compensation, otherwise today will be the day the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan perishes."
Upon hearing this, the elders, who had originally been flushed with anger, looked at the surrounding Spirit Hall army and immediately turned pale. They were clearly in the wrong in this matter.
Now that Spirit Hall had come knocking, it was only reasonable, and other forces couldn't say anything.
However, seeing such a lavish lineup made their heads ache. Anyone with eyes could tell that without a significant payout this time, there would be no peaceful resolution.
Thinking of this, the six elders glared at Yu Yuanzhen in unison and said coldly, "This is all your son's doing."
"I wonder what compensation Spirit Hall desires. Our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will do our utmost to make amends."
After all, now was not the time for questioning. The First Elder suppressed the anger in his heart, as they had to resolve the current situation first.
"I am not some great villain."
Qian Xunfeng revealed a benevolent smile.
"However, 15% of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's territory will be ceded to Spirit Hall's jurisdiction, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will have no right to restrict its development."
"What! Ceding land!"
Upon hearing Qian Xunfeng's words, the First Elder immediately became anxious. This was their ancestral land; how could it be so easily ceded to outsiders?
"Hey, don't rush. This is just the first condition."
Qian Xunfeng cleared his throat and finally stated the remaining conditions.
"Also, five hundred million golden soul coins and fifty percent of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family's assets will all belong to Spirit Hall."
"What! Isn't this taking our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family's life?"
Yu Yuanzhen's expression was somewhat grim as he looked at Qian Xunfeng, who was considerably younger than him, and spoke with a sense of humiliation.
His Soul Rings appeared, clearly intending to use his status as a Title Douluo to pressure them into reducing the compensation.
There was no other way.
It was simply too much. If they paid, the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family would probably have to go beg for food, and their family didn't even have enough money.
"How can a Saintess take away my family's millennium-old industry? Your Excellency is being too overbearing. I want to discuss this with your Pope."
Qian Xunfeng had only recently ascended to the position of Pope and had not yet invited the Three Upper Sects to re-rank, so the news had naturally not reached their ears.
"I am the new Pope of the Pope's Hall, Qian Xunfeng."
As soon as Qian Xunfeng finished speaking, he summoned the Whip of Punishment, and the six black and three red Soul Ring configuration exuded a shocking pressure.
"What, Sect Master Yu, do you want to test the strength of me, the new Pope?"
As he spoke, the whip in his hand burst into raging flames.
To Qian Xunfeng, what kind of presence did the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family even have? In the original work, they were purely background characters.
A family of useless people, unable to produce two Title Douluo, yet they acted so arrogantly every day.
"Your Holiness, the Pope, can you, for the sake of the Three Upper Sects, reduce the compensation? Our family truly cannot produce five hundred million golden soul coins."
Looking at Qian Xunfeng's Soul Rings, Yu Yuanzhen immediately wilted.
"Sect Master Yu, I am not discussing; I am informing you. If the compensation is not delivered today, tomorrow there will no longer be a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family."
Thinking that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family didn't have that much money, Qian Xunfeng humanely stroked his chin.
"Considering your clan's difficulties, and I am not an evil person, how about giving the Nine Crowns of the True Dragon to our Spirit Hall? That can be counted as one hundred and fifty million golden soul coins."
"You!"
These words made Yu Yuanzhen, who already had a fire burning within him, flush red as he looked at the smirking Qian Xunfeng.
"What? Does Sect Master Yu want to have a sparring match with me?"
"Hmph, that's exactly what I intended!"
Yu Yuanzhen panted like an ox upon hearing Qian Xunfeng's disdainful tone, clearly greatly angered by him.
"Martial Soul True Body."
As a bolt of lightning flashed, arcs of electricity flickered around Yu Yuanzhen's body, and his form gradually began to expand.
Deep blue scales gradually covered Yu Yuanzhen's body, and his original four limbs transformed into four thick dragon claws.
With a dragon roar, nine Soul Rings flickered around Yu Yuanzhen, and a powerful dragon's might intimidated the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"Tsk tsk tsk, then I will certainly enjoy sparring with Sect Master Yu."
Qian Xunfeng clicked his tongue, and the divine fire on the Whip of Judgment in his hand became even more restless.
"Fourth Soul Skill, Guardian Angel's Blessing, Seraphim's Grace, Cherubim's Protection."
As soon as the words fell, Qian Xunfeng's aura instantly surged. After three amplification Soul Skills, Qian Xunfeng's overall attributes were now enhanced by six hundred percent.
Qian Xunfeng felt the Whip of Judgment in his hand was extremely eager, and he couldn't help but brandish the whip.
"Second Soul Skill, Angelic Judgment!"
A crimson long whip, with lightning speed, directly struck Yu Yuanzhen, who had transformed into a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
Just one whip strike embedded Yu Yuanzhen into the ground.
"Bone Binding Flame!"
The crimson flames on the Whip of Judgment gradually turned into an eerie purple.
"Sect Master Yu, I haven't even seen your clan's high-level moves yet, and you're already down."
Looking at Yu Yuanzhen, who was like a dead dog, Qian Xunfeng showed no sign of stopping. Another whip strike landed, and blood marks appeared on Yu Yuanzhen's body.
The Bone Binding Flame continuously burned Yu Yuanzhen's body, making him suffer unbearable pain.
Qian Xunfeng whipped him for nearly ten minutes before stopping, feeling strange in his heart. Why didn't this old guy make a sound after being beaten for so long?
"Sect Master Yu, are you still not admitting defeat?"
After a while, Yu Yuanzhen trembled, and with an extremely faint voice, slowly said, "I... I admit defeat!"
What did he mean by not admitting defeat? It was clearly Qian Xunfeng who was having too much fun and didn't give him any chance to speak.
"We admit defeat. Please, Your Holiness, the Pope, come with us to the treasury."
The First Elder wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, turned to Yu Luomian, who was watching the show, and said, "Yu Luomian, you go draft the contract for the transfer of family assets. I'll take His Holiness, the Pope, to get the money."
Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's Family Treasury.
Qian Xunfeng, who had completely plundered the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, was in an excellent mood.
"That's a total of two hundred million golden soul coins. I, the Pope, will count the Nine Crowns of the True Dragon as one hundred and fifty million golden soul coins. As for the remaining one hundred and fifty million, gentlemen, don't forget to pay it back."
After his Soul Masters finished counting the resources, Qian Xunfeng nodded in satisfaction, speaking to the surrounding elders of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan with a half-smile.
These Nine Crowns of the True Dragon came just in time. One must know that several Title Douluo in their Spirit Hall didn't even have a single Soul Bone on them.
Golden Crocodile Elder's Soul Bones were also not fully equipped. Qian Xunfeng had no use for these Soul Bones, so he planned to use them to enhance the strength of Spirit Hall's Title Douluo.
"In that case, I, the Pope, shall depart. The personnel stationed at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will arrive in a few days. The elders must entertain them well."
Seeing that there was no more to be gained from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Qian Xunfeng saw no need to linger and returned with his Soul Saint legion.
"Your Majesty, the Pope, please take care."
Only after Qian Xunfeng had gone far did the First Elder's expression gradually darken.
"Convene a family meeting. Prepare to expel Yu Xiaogang, this scourge, from the family register."
