Chapter 204: The Bandit Encounters Zhou Tong, Suffering Without Words
“Truly, Heaven assists me.”
The shopkeeper trembled with excitement; he immediately recognized the extraordinary nature of the Senior Apprentice Sister.
The Yin-Yang Body, one of the strongest physiques in eternity, if he could snatch that bloodline, he could ascend in an instant!
In an instant, his greedy heart was fully exposed.
Zhou Tong’s expression instantly darkened as he stood in front of the Senior Apprentice Sister.
“Heh heh…”
The shopkeeper revealed a hypocritical smile; once they entered his shop, it was like a cooked duck, and there was no possibility of escape.
“Today’s business is over. You all get lost; I will entertain my esteemed guests now.”
The shopkeeper eagerly said, his eyes locked onto Zhou Tong and the others.
Seeing this scene, the others not only did not get angry, but instead looked at them with pity.
Needless to say, Zhou Tong and the others had become prey at his mercy.
Once the others had left, several native guards swiftly blocked the back door.
“Esteemed guests, do you have anything you want?”
The shopkeeper once again displayed a kind smile; since Zhou Tong and the others had already become captured fish, he no longer needed to rush into using bandit’s tactics.
In his eyes, the Yin-Yang Body would sooner or later become the meat in his mouth.
“Divine Blood, do you have it?”
Zhou Tong fearlessly asked, even showing a hint of an evil smile.
“Yes!”
The shopkeeper immediately produced a glowing orb that fell down.
Seeing this, Zhou Tong did not reach out to take it but instead lightly scanned it with his spiritual power.
It was indeed Divine Blood!
This bloodline was also extraordinary, able to greatly develop spiritual power, making it just right to gift to the Little Demoness later.
“I’ll take it!”
“One hundred thousand Spirit Light Coins, not a single one less!”
The shopkeeper’s expression changed drastically, revealing his claws.
“Go on!”
Zhou Tong chuckled lightly and handed over enough currency to the other party.
“Impossible!”
The shopkeeper’s expression instantly shattered; he had clearly offered an outrageous price, yet the other side remained unfazed.
Logically, there was absolutely no way anyone could accumulate that many Spirit Light Coins on the first floor.
“This must be the total of all of them!”
The shopkeeper thought to himself and immediately changed his words: “Sorry, the price has gone up; now it’s two hundred thousand Spirit Light Coins!”
“Seeking death!”
An elder from the Blood God Sect’s eyes widened in fury, ready to strike, but was stopped by Zhou Tong.
“Young Master Zhou need not stop; the other party is unafraid, and this situation is unresolvable. My Blood God Sect is willing to sacrifice our lives to slay this aberration in return for your great kindness!”
Hearing this, Zhou Tong’s heart trembled slightly.
These guys from the Blood God Sect were indeed a bit impulsive, but they were truly a clear-headed existence, which made him feel a bit more favorable towards them.
“Relax, you don’t need to sacrifice your lives.”
Zhou Tong said with a light smile, then looked at the shopkeeper and said, “Then we don’t want it!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the other party immediately revealed a fierce expression.
“You have to take it!”
“We haven’t even touched that orb of bloodline.”
“So what? Your spiritual power has already touched it, so you must buy it!”
As his words fell, the guards in the shop charged forward, ready to attack at any sign of disagreement.
“Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit; at this point, I won’t beat around the bush anymore. Hand over the bloodline of the Yin-Yang Body, and I will let you leave!”
“Dream on!”
Chu Ran was nearly furious to the point of exploding.
“How dare you call yourself a businessman? You’re clearly a bandit who’s murdering and pillaging; are you not afraid of facing consequences?”
To his surprise, the other party was first taken aback, then burst into wild laughter.
“Consequences? Who can impose consequences on me!”
The shopkeeper sneered, “Is there a rule here against killing and plundering? There isn’t!”
“Whoever can immunize themselves against the punishment of the laws can do whatever they want; this is the only rule here!”
Zhou Tong’s eyes instantly lit up.
“I love the rules here!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the shopkeeper was momentarily stunned.
“Kid, are you dumbfounded? If you don’t want to die, you better behave; I can control everything here!”
The shopkeeper threatened, but Zhou Tong waved his hand.
“We won’t discuss this transaction for now; I have something much more interesting in my hands that you will definitely want to buy.”
“Could it be more precious than the Yin-Yang Body?” The shopkeeper frowned.
“Perhaps it is to you.”
“What is it?”
“Your life!”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was first taken aback, then laughed even more crazily, his eyes full of mockery and ridicule.
“Then I want to ask, how much do you want to sell my life for?”
Zhou Tong looked around, pointing at the shopkeeper, “Everything in this shop belongs to me now, except for you!”
The atmosphere instantly became dead silent.
After a moment, the shopkeeper narrowed his eyes, as if he had touched a bottom line.
“Kid, I have given you opportunities time and again, yet you keep provoking me; do you not know how to write the word ‘death’?”
“You think I’m joking with you?” Zhou Tong also put away his smile, “It’s best to stop while you’re ahead; this price is already very fair!”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper could no longer bear it!
“Kill them!”
With the order given, the guards all struck at the same time, rushing toward everyone with astonishing killing intent.
“Life-Balance Dominion!”
“Bang!!”
A light imprint shot out, and those people all exploded, their life force merging into Zhou Tong’s body, perfectly offsetting the backlash of the laws with the Authority of Water.
“Impossible!”
The shopkeeper looked like he had seen a ghost; he still wanted to say something when he was pinned to the wall by a sword.
At this moment, his face was devoid of arrogance and instead filled with fear.
Because he saw another sword appear in Zhou Tong’s hand, this time aimed at his head.
The other party really dared to kill him!
“Don’t act rashly; I am an individual protected by the laws; if you kill me, you will face even greater punishment!”
“So what?”
Zhou Tong was utterly unconcerned as he prepared to strike again.
“Stop, stop, stop… I surrender! I am willing to trade everything in my store for my life!”
The shopkeeper finally panicked; as someone protected by the laws, if killed by an outsider, his soul would endure immeasurable torture.
“Sorry, your life has increased in price; besides that, you must pay me an additional ten million Spirit Light Coins!”
Zhou Tong revealed a devilish smile, causing the other party to feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
“I have it; in my personal cabinet, there are twenty million Spirit Light Coins!”
In an instant, everyone was left breathless.
This was a complete windfall!
“Sorry, that Spirit Light Coin is now my property as well; you must take out an additional ten million, or else you know the consequences!”
Zhou Tong sneered, determined to drag the other party down to hell.
“You… you really dare to kill me? I am the master of the Bloodline Market; you cannot act so recklessly!”
At this moment, the shopkeeper’s despair and fear reached their peak, yet he still held a shred of hope.
“What… is there a rule here against slaughtering the master of the market? There shouldn’t be, right?”
As his words fell, a terrifying aura descended, crashing into the shopkeeper.
With a snap!
The shopkeeper was torn apart into a spray of blood!
