Overriding the Heaven

"Leader, these guys don't know what's good for them. Why don't we just kill them?"    

Lin Pengchao and the others felt that it was funny and funny at the same time. After they started working in the Gu Mei City Lord's Mansion, it had been a long time since they had encountered something so fun.    

"What? You're from the Gu Mei City Lord's Mansion?"    

After finding out that Chu Yan and the others were from the Gu Mei City Lord's Mansion, no matter if it was the Zheng Family or the Xu Family, all of their expressions changed!    

This was because in the Immortal World, although the Xu Family and the Zheng Family had some strength, they were usually allied with each other.    

It was precisely because of this that they had come together to take revenge for the Fourth Young Master.    

However, they were most afraid of a power like the City Lord's Mansion!    

The reason was very simple. Now that the immortal world had established a new imperial power, the City Lord's Mansion undoubtedly represented the power of the imperial power.    

The Zheng Family and the Xu Family were able to preserve themselves in the previous war in the Immortal World. It was already very good to be able to preserve themselves. They were practically on the verge of death, so they didn't have the spare strength to fight with the City Lord's Mansion, and they didn't even dare to fight with the City Lord's Mansion!    

In addition, the other party had already admitted that they were the elites of the Gu Mei City Lord's Mansion, which made them even more afraid!    

This meant that the people in front of them all had a considerable status in the Gu Mei City's City Lord Mansion.    

They were not existences that they could provoke!    

"Spare my life! Please spare my life.... We didn't know at all that damnable fellow had provoked you. If I knew this would happen earlier, I would have just let him die!"    

"That's right, that's right. That bastard actually caused such a great disaster for us. We really can't get rid of our hatred even if we kill him!"    

"I want to eat his flesh and drink his blood!"    

"How hateful. What Fourth Young Master? He's simply a beast!"    

They immediately started cursing the Zheng Clan's Fourth Young Master.    

Wasn't that right?    

They had really screwed them over this time!    

If they died, they wouldn't let the Fourth Young Master off even if they turned into a ghost!    

"Spare you? Sure."    

Chu Yan said with a smile, "Ask your family to send someone over to ransom you. As for how much money you need to take you away, let your family figure it out for themselves! They think that you are like pearls and treasures, so you are expensive. They think that your lives are as cheap as grass, and a single strand of hair can be exchanged for them... It's just that I don't lack a single blade of grass. If I really take a blade of grass, I'm afraid I will really kill them immediately."    

These words made them not dare to even breathe too loudly.    

However, the fact that Chu Yan was willing to give them a chance to spend money to buy their lives was already very unexpected. They did not dare to ask for anything and quickly sent people back to report to the family that they needed to pay the ransom as soon as possible.    

When they heard this news, all of the families were stunned!    

"What? He is someone from the Gu Mei City Lord's Mansion? Furthermore, he can even control the elites of the Gu Mei City's Mayor's Mansion... Oh my god! What kind of person did that beast provoke?!"    

"Does he want us all to die!?"    

"Damn it, the Zheng Family has to take responsibility for this matter!"    

"I don't want to offend the Mayor's Mansion in Gu Mei City!"    

These clans were all cursing!    

Wasn't it?    

Everyone knew how the Castellan of Gu Mei City rose to power!    

All of them were ruthless people, ruthless characters. If they really offended the Gu Mei City's City Lord's Mansion, then they definitely wouldn't have a good ending!    

The Zheng Family was trying to harm them!    

Therefore, they all sent people to plead on behalf of the Zheng Clan, indicating that it was a misunderstanding!    

However, Chu Yan, who had expected this, had already asked Lin Pengchao and Wu Linzheng to stop them outside.    

"Who the hell cares if you are from the Zhao Family, Wang Family, Lee Family, or Zheng Family... If you want to redeem someone, you can bring the money over. Hand over the ransom and then bring the people to leave! Otherwise, don't even think about it!"    

"Isn't that so? This time, it was you guys who took the initiative to provoke us. Now that we have given you a chance to spend your money to buy your life, you guys seem to be very unwilling to give it up? Very well then. We'll kill a few of them first and let you guys see that we're serious. We're not joking with you guys!"    

"Or perhaps, we should send someone to report this to the city lord? We are going on a mission for the city lord. If you guys obstruct us like this, the city lord will definitely be very angry when he finds out about this."    

"Kekeke... If the City Lord is really angry, then it won't be as simple as spending money. I remember that there are still some territories in your families that are very attractive."    

Facing the obstruction of Lin Pengchao and the others, as well as the threat between the lines, these families simply suffered in silence, unable to speak!    

However, it was worthy of mentioning that the deterrence from Lin Pengchao and the others was very accurate. These family's forces were extremely afraid of Gu Mei City's City Lord!    

Because dealing with Chu Yan right now was just a matter of paying. However, not only did the city lord of Gu Mei City have to pay the money, but he also had to give him territory. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to fill the appetite of the city lord!    

In the end, although there was nothing they could do, they could only obediently send over a shocking ransom!    

Among them, the Zheng Family took the majority.    

After all, if it wasn't for that idiot, the Zheng Family, how could they have come to this point and almost offended the City Lord of Gu Mei City? This was really too dangerous!    

Now, they were only paying the money, yet it was already very easy on the Zheng family!    

The Zheng family also did not say anything. They directly paid the money, or else they would have to pay the money and offend these family allies. That would be a double loss.    

Chu Yan took a look at the astonishing wealth in his hands and smiled, saying, "You guys have done a good job this time. This is for you!"    

With that, Chu Yan gave a portion to Lin Pengchao and the others.    

As for how Lin Pengchao and the others would split it up, that was their own business.    

Seeing this, Lin Pengchao and the others were naturally overjoyed and thanked Chu Yan profusely!    

It was all because of this wealth, and it was all because of Chu Yan. Since they had offended Chu Yan earlier, it would be too late for them to apologize, so what did it matter if they did something for Chu Yan?    

Who would have thought that Chu Yan would be this generous and directly give them a portion?    

Although it was only a portion of it, the wealth that these families had accumulated was really not small, and it was enough for them to improve for a while.    

Chu Yan smiled and did not say a word.    

The reason why he gave a part to Zhang Ziyu, Lu Shishi, and the others was because of Chu Yan's habit. If there was a mistake, he would be punished, but if there was a meritorious service, he would be rewarded!    

Secondly, they had indeed done some things.    

And the second reason was to bribe the people's hearts!    

This mission was quite important to Chu Yan. He did not want anything to go wrong.    

Actually, what Chu Yan did was far more than that. Although he gave a portion of the things to Lin Pengchao and the others and let them divide it up amongst themselves, he had already observed what Lu Shishi, Zhang Ziyu, and the others needed and intentionally divided it like this. Therefore, when the things reached their hands, they actually already had their own owners.
