Chapter 1287 Are You Satisfied Now?
"If you attack the Reincarnation Bureau now, you will inevitably suffer a frenzied backlash from its Qi Luck."
"Although Liangjie Tang can consume some of the Reincarnation Bureau's strength, it will inevitably be wiped out under the backlash of Qi Luck."
Su Su, fearing I wouldn't believe her, added, "Li Po, trust me, I am a Qi Luck ghost spirit. I won't be wrong."
I had heard clearly from Feng Ruoxing about how the Reincarnation Bureau had suffered losses at Su Su's hands; it was indeed a means of killing with Qi Luck.
Moreover, how could a sect like the Reincarnation Bureau, which had continued for hundreds of years, have no foundation?
However, my hand was already raised. Could I put it down so easily?
What I didn't expect was that Zhu Zining provided me with a way out at just the right moment: "Li Po, can we talk?"
I readily lowered my hand and smiled, "Sure! What do you want to talk about?"
Before Zhu Zining could speak, Su Su anxiously said, "Her luck has been affected by me. She will make frequent mistakes. Take the opportunity to suppress her Qi Luck."
Zhu Zining said, "Li Po, our coming to Liangjie Tang was indeed for the sake of the public good. However, your Liangjie Tang has repeatedly refused to cooperate..."
My face darkened. "Zhu Zining, I'll say it one last time."
"Don't talk to me about public or private interests. Your Reincarnation Bureau is just like Liangjie Tang. In the end, it's just a Jianghu organization. It doesn't deserve to be called a public entity, nor is it qualified to represent the Jianghu."
"The so-called cooperation is just a matter of whose wrist is stronger!"
"If you keep trying to act righteous in front of me, then there's nothing to talk about between us."
Just now, I had almost fought with the Reincarnation Bureau because I was overwhelmed with anger.
After I calmed down, I realized that now was not the time to directly confront the Reincarnation Bureau.
Although Ling and Zang Tianji had mobilized their forces, they were only deterring Zhu Zining. Otherwise, the two sides would have already clashed.
Both Zhu Zining and I were clear that this battle would not break out. It was just a matter of who could gain an advantage.
Zhu Zining suppressed her anger and said, "Alright! Then let's talk about personal grudges."
"So far, the people of your Liangjie Tang are unharmed, but my Reincarnation Bureau has lost an elder, four protectors, and dozens of disciples. You've already gained the advantage. How about we both take a step back, shake hands, and make peace?"
"Absolutely not!" I said coldly, "Are you saying that I'm not allowed to retaliate when your Reincarnation Bureau comes to provoke me?"
"Your people deserved to die. You must also compensate me for my losses. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving."
As I spoke, the black clouds in the sky suddenly lowered several meters with my voice, and a strong sense of suffocation suddenly pressed down on both sides.
The people of our Liangjie Tang returned to normal after a brief palpitation.
The Reincarnation Bureau's forces, however, all turned pale.
Zhu Zining gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, I can compensate you for the losses of Liangjie Tang!"
I said lightly, "I'm not talking about money! Although we, Liangjie Tang, are not rich, I can still afford the small amount of money to repair houses."
"I want you to compensate with lives!"
"For every place of Liangjie Tang that you damage, you must pay with one life."
"I don't want too much, five people!"
I held out five fingers and said, "Leave five lives, and you can leave. You choose who to kill."
Zhu Zining's face turned green. "Li Po, do you really want to push the Reincarnation Bureau to the point of no return?"
Before I could speak, I saw someone quickly walk to Zhu Zining's side and whisper something while covering their mouth. Zhu Zining's expression changed several times before she gritted her teeth and said, "I can give you the people. Let us leave."
Chen Shuyu quickly transmitted her voice to me from behind: "That person said that the Witch Xu An'an is leading the four evil monks to attack the secret realm of the Reincarnation Bureau, and they can't hold on over there."
I was secretly shocked: Xu An'an's attack was too timely!
No! This wasn't a coincidence. Rather, the Reincarnation Bureau was affected by Su Su's Qi Luck. All the misfortune was happening at once.
I said lightly, "You didn't agree just now, but you agree now? It's too late. Now I want ten people."
"Remember, it's not you giving me people, but me watching you kill!"
"You..." Zhu Zining trembled with anger.
I waved my hand and said, "I see that Saintess Zhu hasn't thought it through. It's not too late for us to talk after you've thought it over."
"Come! Serve tea to our guests. Don't let people say that we Liangjie Tang have lost our manners."
I then added, "Saintess Zhu, you must remember clearly that if you delay too long, I might have to raise the price."
Zhu Zining said sharply, "Alright, I'll give you ten people. Someone, go down and choose the people yourselves."
The Reincarnation Bureau's high-level members looked at Zhu Zining in stunned silence. Someone pleaded, "Saintess, you can't do this! You will lose the hearts of the people!"
Zhu Zining immediately pointed at him, "He counts as one. As for the others, do you want to go down and choose people yourselves, or do you want to sacrifice yourselves for the Reincarnation Bureau? Choose!"
The remaining high-level members dared not say more and quickly returned, each bringing back one or two disciples with ashen faces.
Zhu Zining simply waved her hand, and many high-level members simultaneously killed the disciples on the spot. Zhu Zining coldly looked at me and said, "This time, are you satisfied?"
