"Old man ning, why are you wasting your breath on him? just tie him up and throw him to those snakes!" At this time, the head of the Cheng family, who had already packed up the unconscious elders of the Yao family, interrupted.
"Yes, we shouldn't talk nonsense with him. Let's go and find those snakes!" After master ning finished speaking, he directly picked up master Yao and prepared to leave.
At this time, the Yao family's head butler saw that the situation was not right and had already gathered many clansmen to block the main courtyard's entrance. Seeing that they were about to leave, the Yao family's head butler mustered his courage and shouted,""Let go of the master!"
"Yo! There really are people who aren't afraid of death!" Seeing this, the head of the Cheng family laughed happily. Then, he walked step by step towards the head butler of the Yao family. Seeing this, the head butler of the Yao family was so scared that he retreated.
"Don't Dodge! Aren't you very courageous?" The head of the Cheng family teased.
"I ... I ..." The Yao family's head butler was so nervous that his forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he stuttered. Most importantly, these people were the family Masters of the eight divine regions, and his own family master was in their hands. He couldn't afford to offend any of them!
"If you know what's good for you, move! Otherwise, I'll tie you up as well!" The head of the Cheng family threatened, but the head butler didn't dare to back down in front of the head of the Yao family. Otherwise, if the head of the Cheng family was safe and sound, he would be the one in trouble!
At this moment, the Yao family's head butler was extremely regretful. Why did he have to step out? Great, now it's too late to stop! He really regretted it so much that his intestines turned green!
However, the head of the Yao family didn't know what was going on in the head Butler's mind. Seeing the head Butler's unyielding expression, he was deeply gratified. Unfortunately, the head Butler's strength was too low and couldn't save him at all!
This fact made the head of the Yao family both anxious and angry. After thinking for a long time, he finally said,""Let me go, and I'll pay you, okay?"
"Alright! Of course! However, given your past record, we really don't believe in your credibility. So, pay us our reward first, and then we'll let you go!" The master of the ning family smiled. Their main goal was money. Unless they had no other choice, why would they send the head of the Yao family back?
"That's right! Pay the reward first. Otherwise, what if I let you go and you go back on your word? We don't want to waste our time!" The head of the Cheng clan agreed.
When the other patriarchs heard these words, they all nodded their heads. In truth, they had already discussed this through voice transmission earlier. If this still couldn't make the Yao clan's old man submit, then they really could only send the Yao clan's patriarch back. Otherwise, wouldn't the Yao clan's old man look down on the seven families even more in the future?
"If you don't let me go, how am I supposed to get your reward?" Hearing the words of the two people, the head of the Yao family was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"That's your problem!" The head of the Cheng clan laughed.
"If you don't let me go, I can't get my reward. I'm the only one who can open the treasure vault!" The head of the Yao family said after taking a few deep breaths.
"Like this?" The Cheng clan's patriarch pretended to think, while the Yao clan's patriarch hurriedly nodded and looked at them with anticipation.
However, the master of the ning family, who saw through his thoughts, said,""Even if that's the case, I can't let you go first. In my opinion, you should still authorize your Yao family's most loyal steward to get your reward!"
"That's a good idea!" The head of the Cheng clan nodded in agreement.
"Alright then!" Now that things had come to this, there was no point in saying anything more. The head of the Yao family also understood that these people would not let him go until they saw the rabbit. If he didn't bleed, they would definitely not let him go.
"Head butler, come closer," The head of the Yao clan said.
Hearing his family head's words, the head butler, who was trembling with fear, walked forward. The Yao family head whispered a few words to him, and the head butler nodded. Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by the Cheng family head."Wait! If you don't show us the list of remuneration we asked for, do you know how much remuneration we'll give you?"
After saying this, the head of the Cheng clan directly handed a few thin pieces of paper to the head butler of the Yao clan and added,""If the items on the list aren't there, items of equivalent value are fine too. In short, the required value on the list must not be less!"
"I got it!" Great Butler Yao quickly nodded. He didn't even dare to look at those pieces of paper and ran away as if he had seen a ghost!
After the head butler left, the head of the ning family and the head of the Yao family stared at each other. The head of the Cheng family couldn't help but mumble,""Old man Yao! If only you had been so happy earlier, you would have obediently paid the reward only after such a scene happened, sigh! I really don't know what to say to you! You're really losing more than you gain by doing this!"
Yes! Old man Yao's actions had infuriated them, so they doubled the reward. Now, after paying the reward, the Yao family would probably suffer a great loss! However, they didn't sympathize with him. After all, the things he had done were really not well-liked!
The original intention of the heads of the Cheng and ning families was to attack the Yao family. Although this would deepen their enmity with the Yao family, it wouldn't be easy for top families without huge wealth to cause trouble again! Therefore, they believed that after this massive loss, the Yao family should be able to take a break for a few days!
After waiting for a long time, the Yao family's head butler, who seemed to have lost his parents, finally returned!
However, the Yao family's head steward's expression was extremely ugly, but he still carefully handed the storage ring to the ning family's master. The ning family's master scanned it with his divine sense and knew the value of the things inside. Then, he nodded in satisfaction and let the Yao family's master go.
Seeing this, the head of the Cheng family followed suit and released the Yao family elders.
After that, the few people who had received the reward didn't give the Yao family head a chance to ask them to leave. They tactfully took their leave first. If they didn't leave now, when would they?
After they left, the Yao family's head butler pulled a long face and sobbed,""Master, we don't have much money left!"
"What did you just say?" The head of the Yao family thought he had heard wrong and hurriedly asked.
"Master, we don't have much money left!" The Yao clan's head butler repeated.
"Where's the money? Don't I still have a lot of treasures in my Treasury?" The head of the Yao family asked in disbelief. Although he had lost a lot of blood during this period of time, the wealth that the Yao family had accumulated over the years could not be lost in a short time. How could they not have money?
"There were a lot of them, but they've all been given to master ning as remuneration!" The head butler of the Yao family whispered. In fact, when he was receiving the remuneration, he was also frightened. However, when he thought about how the head of the family and the elders were held hostage in the hands of others! He could only heartlessly put away the family head's many years of collection for her! When he was packing those things, his heart was also bleeding with pain!
"Damn it!" Hearing this, the head of the Yao family quickly ran to his treasure vault. When he went in to take a look, it was almost empty! There were only a few small things left in the corner.
Then, he took the access records and the list of rewards that the master of the ning family and the others had asked for. When he saw it, he became even more furious!
"Detestable! I won't just let it go like this!" The head of the Yao family roared fiercely, his voice reverberating through the empty treasury.
In fact, he had been too careless, or rather, he had been muddled with anger. He had actually forgotten to ask what the other party had asked for as a reward, and had not thought of bargaining.
It seemed that he had wanted to quickly send these people away! As a result, the blood he lost this time was a bit more! This fact made the Furious head of the Yao family unable to vent his anger, and his hatred for the two heads of the ning and Cheng families deepened!
Hmph! Sooner or later, I'm going to take care of you guys! The head of the Yao clan cursed.
Yes! At this time, he hated the other seven family heads together. However, he was not stupid enough to deal with them together. As for now, he would just let them live a few days of leisure!
With this thought, the head of the Yao family calmed down, but his heart became even darker! In the next few days, the Yao family was in a state of low pressure. The Yao family members didn't even dare to breathe loudly for fear of angering their ancestor.
On the other side, after the master of the ning family and the others returned to the inn, they immediately divided the items in the storage ring into two. Half was the reward for the seven of them, and the other half was promised to the snakes!
After distributing the rewards equally among the seven people, the master of the ning family handed over the rewards for the blue snake Clan to the master of the Cheng family for safekeeping. Then, the master of the ning family found an excuse and quietly left the inn, teleporting in the direction of the cliff.
As soon as he reached the cliff, the master of the ning family saw Cang waiting at the edge of the cliff. Then, Cang took him down to the bottom of the cliff.
Before he could express his thoughts about the world at the bottom of the cliff, he saw that Xue 'er and the others had become the chefs of the small beasts at the bottom of the cliff, making delicious food for them in all kinds of ways!
The master of the ning family was really envious, jealous, and hateful of the treatment the little beasts received! However, when he found out that these small beasts were not real beasts but elves, he widened his eyes and opened his mouth in disbelief, just like Dongfang Yue and the others!
A meat-eating elf ... The master of the ning family was horrified!
As for Leng ruoxue, who had told him the truth, she couldn't help but snicker to herself when she saw her Godfather's expression.
"Bad girl, you're actually laughing at your Godfather!" Master ning glared at Leng ruoxue as he snapped back to his senses.
"Hehe! Godfather, what's wrong with that? when Dongfang Yue and the others first heard about this, they were no better than you! So, you don't have to be shy!" Leng ruoxue coaxed.
