Chapter 379: Leaving
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
As far as Bei Feng was concerned, he only needed to finish his part of the deal. As for the marriage alliance between the two families and what Wang Hong and the rest felt, it was none of his concern.
The further he went on his cultivation, the more he understood one point.
There was no right or wrong in the world, only the weak and the strong. If there was really something that was wrong, it was that one side was too weak!
A weakling did not even have any rights to choose in front of someone who held power. Nobody be blamed for this. They could only blame themselves for being too weak!
The atmosphere on the scene was completely silent. All the lofty Xiantian Lords were behaving like primary school students on the first day of school. Nobody dared to speak, and were only looking around timidly.
“I wonder what kind of luck the Wang Clan had accumulated, to actually manage to make the acquaintance of a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert! They’ve really hugged onto a super-thick thigh this time!”
“Dammit, how come such good stuff never happens to me?”
The group of Xiantian Lords complained in their hearts. The way they looked at Wang Yuyan was filled with envy.
“Ah?”
Wang Yuyan’s eyes were wide open with shock. She had never imagined that Bei Feng was actually such a powerful figure!
Back when she’d met him at the Yarlung Zangbo grand canyon, she remembered that while Bei Feng had been strong, it was nowhere near the point where it would cause others to despair!
It had merely been three years since, but now, Bei Feng only needed to stand there, and even the high and mighty elders did not dare to say anything.
A hopeful gleam finally appeared in Wang Yudie’s eyes. No matter the circumstances, it was true that she was finally free now, and did not need to marry someone that she didn’t like.
“Think about it properly, this is the last favor I will do for you. I can give your Wang Clan resources to cultivate with, or help you groom 50 Xiantian Lords. I can even eliminate all your enemies for you, or gift you with mystical martial techniques!” Bei Feng stated calmly, every single one of his words causing the Xiantian experts present to drool with desire.
At this moment, every single elder in the Wang Clan were practically screaming internally, “Accept it! Accept it!”
Wang Yong finally could not bear it, as he stepped out and said, “We choose 50 Xiantian Lords!”
This matter concerned the interests of the Wang Clan, and was simply too important leave the decision to a little girl!
If they had 50 Xiantian Lords, what level of power would their Wang Clan reach?
As for resources and martial techniques, Wang Yong instead did not view them as highly. The way he saw it, resources and martial techniques were not as practical as gaining 50 Xiantian Lords with the current state of the Heaven and Earth Ling Qi.
That was the way Wang Hong thought as well. However, he was able to contain himself more.
“Shut your mouth! Did I allow you to speak?”
Bei Feng furrowed his brows with annoyance and sent a backhand slap at Wang Yong as though he was swatting a fly away.
“Pa!”
Everyone only felt a powerful blood and Qi energy appear as their eyes blurred. Before they knew what happened, Wang Yong had been sent flying backwards, smashing heavily into the decorative man-made mountain in the yard. He lay there groaning, unable to get up despite struggling for a long time.
“Si!”
Everyone sucked in a cold breath of air together. With just a casual slap, Bei Feng had beaten a peak mid stage Xiantian Lord half to death!
“Don’t be afraid, take your time to consider.”
Bei Feng was not in a hurry as he waited silently for Wang Yuyan to make her choice.
To Bei Feng, the Wang Clan was only something that Wang Yuyan was affiliated to. Him being nice to her did not mean that he needed to be nice to the entire Wang Clan as well.
The entire yard had fallen into a deep silence. Nobody dared to open their mouths in case they got slapped as well.
Originally, a few of the elders of the Wang Clan were preparing to speak out as. But after seeing Wang Yong’ miserable state, they all thought better of it. Luckily, someone had stood out to test the waters for them…
Wang Yuyan thought for a long moment before she asked with some uncertainty, “If I choose the martial technique, can it be taught to others as well?”
“It can’t. If you choose the martial technique, but it can only be learned by you alone. If I find out that anyone apart from you are practicing the martial technique I gave you, I will trample the Wang Clan into the ground,” Bei Feng said in a chilly tone. There wasn’t the slightest hint of joking in his voice.
The Dao couldn’t be transmitted lightly!
“In that case, I’ll choose to have 50 Xiantian Lords.”
Wang Yuyan parted her mouth and said as she came to a decision.
“A wise choice. In a few days, I’ll head over to Mount Longhu and obtain 50 Dragon Tiger Pills for your Wang Clan.”
Bei Feng nodded his head. Deep in his heart, he also heaved a sigh of relief.
Honestly, he had played a little trick in this matter as. He first listed the choices of either granting 50 Xiantian Lords, a set of martial techniques, or resources so as to give the Wang Clan the illusion of having the initiative to choose.
At the same time, he forbade anyone to speak so that Wang Yuyan’s thoughts could not be disrupted.
Everything was so that Wang Yuyan would choose from these few options. From the looks of it, his plan had went pretty well.
After seeing Bei Feng’s satisfied expression, Wang Hong shook his head slightly with pity.
‘We’d been hoodwinked out of a truly precious opportunity!’ Wang Hong secretly lamented.
It was too bad that Bei Feng’s bait had been too tempting. That was 50 Xiantian Lords, a full 40 more than the current number of experts in their clan!
By the time he reacted, it was too late. If Wang Yuyan had requested to let either her or her elder sister marry Bei Feng, or if Wang Yuyan asked to come under Bei Feng’s apprenticeship, they would have secured a truly powerful source of backing.
As long as they had the extraordinary relationship of a master and disciple, even if Wang Yuyan died a hundred years from now, Bei Feng would still protect the Wang Clan out of past sentiments.
With such a young Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert watching over them, even if their clan stagnated completely and did not progress at all, they would still be able to survive for several hundred years!
But they had already made their choice. Although it was slightly regretful, Wang Hong felt a lot better after thinking about the 50 Dragon Tiger Pills.
50 Dragon Tiger Pills could similarly allow their Wang Clan to prosper for several hundred years! It was getting increasingly difficult to break through to the Xiantian realm nowadays, but with the Dragon Tiger Pills, such a task would be simple!
Even if the Earth ran out of Heaven and Earth Ling Qi, people could still forcefully advance to the Xiantian realm as long as they had the Dragon Tiger Pills.
The Evolved Jing realm had nothing to do with Heaven and Earth Ling Qi. Instead, it had more to do with the Xiantian roots and Houtian cultivation.
As long as one had enough nourishing herbs, even if it were only decades old ginseng and similar types of herbs, it was enough. The Xiantian realm was different in that one needed the support of Heaven and Earth Ling Qi.
However, the Dragon Tiger Pills allowed one to directly leap past this stage, directly ascending to the Xiantian realm! Of course, this kind of Xiantian Lord was only considered as being at a pseudo-Xiantian realm.
They could easily defeat Evolved Jing masters, yet were not a match for experts who had relied on themselves to reach the Xiantian realm. In some cases, these pseudo-Xiantian Lords would not even be able to beat some Evolved Jing masters who had stronger foundations and better martial techniques.
However, the increase in their lifespan would not be affected at all. Even if one relied on the Dragon Tiger Pills to achieve a breakthrough, they would still have 200 years of lifespan!
“I don’t wish to hear anything about someone attempting to snatch the Dragon Tiger Pills away from Wang Yuyan. Whoever dares to try will be rewarded with death! In addition, the usage of the Dragon Tiger Pills will be decided by Wang Yuyan alone. No one is to interfere with her decision. If I find out that she was forced to do something against her will, I will similarly flatten the Wang Clan!”
Bei Feng turned his icy gaze upon the crowd. As his eyes swept over the crowd, those who harbored any ill intentions in their hearts immediately lowered their heads.
If Bei Feng had not declared his stand, conflict would have been inevitable. After all, 50 Dragon Tiger Pills was way too tempting, enough to cause countless huge powers to act against the Wang Clan!
After saying his piece, Bei Feng did not bother himself with the opinions of the crowd as he turned around and left. Mystic One and Mystic Three hurriedly followed behind him.
“We bid Esteemed Heavenly Lord a safe journey!”
All the Xiantian experts rose up and bowed deeply. At the same time, numerous loud voices joined together and echoed out to bid Bei Feng farewell.
At the same time, the Dark Jing and Evolved Jing masters outside also looked up in shock as they listened to the sudden loud voices. Could it be that a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert had arrived?
Bei Feng sighed lightly with relief as he stepped out of the Wang Clan manor. From this point on, he could be said to have fulfilled his promise to Wang Yuyan. After he passed the pills to her, he would have nothing to do with the Wang Clan anymore.
