Translator: 549690339

A revered Spirit Platform Realm cultivator, being so furious as to suffer a bout of blood-spitting, was something rather rare to witness, if not unprecedented.

Lei Yangqiu was so filled with anger that he glared daggers at Wang Shouzhe’s retreating figure, he yearned nothing more than to explode in rage. Yet he repressed his own fury, because that young man had gotten him by the throat, so to speak.

Oh, well; he thought, he would have to endure Wang Shouzhe’s antics for the time being.

Seething with rage but reduced to the point of being unable to vent his frustration on the Wang family, he redirected his wrath by throwing venomous glances at the Liu and Zhao clans.

Both the Liu and Zhao clans harbored immense resentment against Lei Yangqiu. After all, heroes from both tribes had been essentially killed by him. Even worse, after Lei Yangqiu selfishly preserved his own life by sacrificing members of their respective clans, he ended up having his ego crushed, while he was also forced to plead with the Wang family.

The scene was cast in utter silence.

Members of the Wang family stared at Wang Shouzhe with complex expressions. They too had not anticipated that today’s sequence of events would escalate to such proportions.

The Liu and Zhao clans – and the Celestial Being’s community enforcer Lei Yangqiu – none of them were pushovers! Yet, they were all suppressed by Wang Shouzhe, single-handedly.

Even the Old Ancestor didn’t dare underestimate Wang Shouzhe anymore, and he asked cautiously, “Shouzhe, how will we handle the next stages of this matter?”

Upon hearing this, all eyes from the Liu and Zhao clans, as well as from Lei Yangqiu, were drawn towards Wang Shouzhe. Who knew what other cards he still had up his sleeve?

This continuous series of predicaments left everyone knocked off their feet. “What kind of handling?” Wang Shouzhe laughed. “Everyone naturally goes their own way. Unless the Old Ancestor intends to invite them to dinner?” He was in such a good mood that he even started to joke around.

In reality, given Wang Shouzhe’s personality, he would have preferred to detain both the Liu and Zhao clans along with Lei Yangqiu.

However, that was practically impossible.

Although the Old Ancestor was a robust fighter, he wasn’t the original patriarch of the Wang family. Wang Shouzhe already felt immensely grateful for him coming to Wang family’s aid. Asking him to risk his life was out of the question.

More importantly, Da Qian ultimately had its own law.

Wang Shouzhe was not arrogant enough to ignore the Daqian Law blatantly. Private affairs were dealt with privately, while public affairs were handled publicly.

Being able to suppress Lei Yangqiu today was merely due to Wang Shouzhe leveraging the power of the Daqian Law.

Upon hearing this, the household heads of the Liu and Zhao Clan felt a strange sense of relief. They had sustained losses and lost face, but they still had homes to return to, didn’t they?

Just as they turned to leave, however, Wang Shouzhe called out, “Wait a minute.”

All members of the Liu and Zhao clans shuddered involuntarily, could another catastrophe be on the verge of befalling them? Nothing good ever happened whenever Wang Shouzhe said, “wait”.

“Firstly, although Zhao Jinda and Liu Shengze arc dead, compensation for the survivors is unavoidable,” Wang Shouzhe said solemnly.

Lei Yangqiu’s eyes brightened instantly, sensing an opportunity to prove his worth. He stepped forward, “Clan Leader Wang is absolutely right. I, as the town’s guardian, will oversee this matter. As for the total compensation, it shall amount to not less than five hundred Qian Gold, make it a thousand instead.”

Under his current circumstances, if Wang Shouzhe was determined to make life difficult for Lei Yangqiu, he would probably be stripped raw, and his clansmen would not let him off either.

Perhaps after all this was over, the Lei Clan would retaliate against Wang Shouzhe, but by then Lei Yangqiu would already be out of the picture.

When they heard “a thousand Qian Gold” for compensation, the clan leaders of the Liu and Zhao clans almost turned black with anger. Such an amount was equivalent to all the profits they’d acquired through a year of toil. But they had to ask themselves, didn’t they wipe off several households from existence? Wang Shouzhe did not confirm nor deny this, he added, “The Liu and Zhao clans caused a commotion and damaged many green stone bricks on our plaza…”

“Indeed, what Clan Leader Wang said makes perfect sense.” Lei Yangqiu immediately began to curry favor again, “I observed that at least several hundreds of green stone bricks were smashed, so let’s assume there were five hundred. Calculating at the rate of one Qian Gold per brick, that’s another five hundred Qian Gold. 1 will ensure this debt is collected. Pay it now.”

Five hundred Qian Gold!

The Liu and Zhao clans were about to go insane! Lei Yangqiu was striving to appease the Wang family, exerting so much effort to maintain his position as the town protector, but did he really have to take such drastic measures against them? One Qian Gold per brick? Why not just rob them?

Even Wang Shouzhe felt that Lei Yangqiu’s demands were a bit too excessive. “What’s with those looks?” asked Lei Yangqiu with a grave expression, “These green stone bricks arc a treasure left by our Wang family’s Old Ancestor Zhou Xuan. They’re historical artifacts that have been around for over a hundred years. They bear witness to how our Ping’an Town evolved from a savage land to its current state of prosperity. Given their historical value, the cost of one Qian Gold per brick is practically a bargain.”

“Err…”

Wang Shouzhe was stunned by this weighty proclamation. This extensive plaza had at least hundreds of thousands of green stone bricks. At one Qian Gold per brick, this plaza would be the Wang family’s most valuable possession.

Alright then, for the sake of money, Wang Shouzhe decided to spare Lei Yangqiu for the time being.

After all, watching him and the Liu and Zhao clans plunge towards a consummate break was a fairly entertaining spectacle. As for the aftermath, that would entirely depend on his performance.

Despite Lei Yangqiu’s lack of shame, he was still the town’s guardian. Under his “persuasion”, the Liu and Zhao clans had no choice but to cough up five hundred Qian Gold as compensation.

“Clan Leader Wang, what do you think of how I handled this situation…” Lei Yangqiu carefully offered the compensation..
