Chapter 6022: It’s Compensation, Not Theft
Thus, Chu Feng decided on the spur to make an exception and meddle a bit more. He would go further to bear all the hatred for this matter.
“Those who obtained the empty token from the palace earlier, hand it over,” Chu Feng commanded the Ancient Era’s juniors.
Sof the Ancient Era’s juniors gestured with their eyes, while others sent a voice transmission. All of them were pointing toward the three red-cloaked men.
The three red-cloaked were scared out of their wits. They knew that they were in a terrible position, so none of them tried to argue their way out. They quickly reached into their Cosmos Sacks to take out the empty tokens before handing them to Chu Feng.
The other two red-cloaked men also dropped their veils, but Chu Feng couldn’t discern their appearance as their faces were too swollen. Their lives were not in danger, but the injuries were severe. They had to limp around, a sign that their souls had been injured.
Qin Xuan was the culprit behind that.
Even though the three red-cloaked men were the masterminds behind this incident, the only ones who dared to make a move on them were Chu Feng and Qin Xuan.
From the start to the end, Yuwen Yanri had refrained from making a move.
It was not because he feared vengeance from the Ancient Era’s juniors, but that he didn’t think that there was a need for him to step in at all.
“Young hero Chu Feng, we were foolish,” the plump red-cloaked man said with a fawning smile as he handed the empty tokens over.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe average-sized red-cloaked man also tried to smile fawningly, but he looked ridiculous after having lost sof his teeth. “We’re truly sorry.”
The short red-cloaked man under Chu Feng’s foot didn’t say a word, but he silently handed over the empty tokens too.
All in all, the three of them handed over 36 empty tokens. That was the number of empty tokens available in that palace.
“Do you know your mistakes now?” Chu Feng asked.
“It’s a misunderstanding!” the two red-cloaked men replied with lowered heads.
Chu Feng had seen too many of such people. The red-cloaked men had surrendered, and they just wanted this matter to blow over now.
The present-era cultivators felt exhilarated seeing that.
Seeing the red-cloaked men acting like subservient dogs before Chu Feng excited them more than they teaching the Ancient Era’s juniors a lesson themselves. Indeed, the only law in the world of cultivation was martial prowess.
“You know deep down whether it’s a misunderstanding or not. If you think that you’re wrong, the least you can do is to hand over all your treasures as compensation,” Chu Feng said as he eyed the Ancient Era’s juniors.
The Ancient Era’s juniors were horrified.
“Young hero Chu Feng, are you... stealing from us right now?” the plump red-cloaked man asked with a crack in his expression.
“Steal? What do you mean by steal? This is compensation!” Chu Feng said.
“Young hero Chu Feng, you have already beaten us up. Shouldn’t we call it quits with that?” the average-sized red-cloaked man spoke with a bitter and indignant tone.
“Your grudge might have been resolved, but that doesn’t justify your actions. What you did was an eyesore to me. I happen to be in a good mood, and I don’t want to have to go too far either, so I’m giving you a chance to make up for it. Why? Do you not want the chance?”
Killing intent flared from Chu Feng. It was a threat and a warning.
“We want it, we want it!”
The plump red-cloaked man dared not argue anymore, and he took the initiative to hand over his Cosmos Sack.
The others did the stoo.
Even the Ancient Era’s juniors, who didn’t oppress the present-era cultivators, handed over their Cosmos Sacks too. However, Chu Feng returned their Cosmos Sacks with a wave of his hand, saying, “You people don’t need to do it.”
Chu Feng was so thorough in distincting grudges that sof the Ancient Era’s juniors were won over by him, though that was limited to those who had their Cosmos Sacks given back.
Those who had their Cosmos Sacks taken away winced in pain from losing their fortune.
Soon, all the oppressors had handed over their Cosmos Sacks, except for one—the short red-cloaked man lying under Chu Feng’s feet.
“What’s wrong? You don’t want the chance?” Chu Feng questioned.
The short red-cloaked man quietly handed over his Cosmos Sack.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChu Feng inspected the content of his Cosmos Sack, only to burst into laughter right after. Something was conspicuously absent from his Cosmos Sack.
“Where’s that God Armament ax you brought out earlier? Does that not count as a treasure?”
The short red-cloaked man’s heart skipped a beat. “Young hero Chu Feng, I can’t hand over that God Armament! That is...”
Before he could finish, Chu Feng asked, “Is your life or your treasure more important?”
The short red-cloaked man took out his God Armament ax with a flick of his wrist and handed it over.
Chu Feng accepted the item. He turned to the crowd and said, “I probably should remind you what I want isn’t just your Cosmos Sack but all the treasures you have. Don’t play tricks with me, unless you think that your concealment means are superior to the formations here.”
Those who had hidden their treasures quickly handed everything over. They knew that Chu Feng wasn’t bragging. His ability to unravel the barriers around the stone pillars with great ease was evidence of his observation prowess.
The treasures Chu Feng received this twere much more valuable. He had received three God Armaments from them, so he naturally revealed a satisfied smile.
He didn’t share these treasures with the other present-era cultivators, not just because he didn’t want to implicate them, but also because he was bearing huge risks by doing this. There was no reason for him to share his gains with others.
Chu Feng turned to the Ancient Era’s juniors once more and said, “I could have silenced all of you today.”
The faces of the Ancient Era’s juniors turned ghastly pale. This was what they were the most afraid of.
“But what you have done does not justifykilling you; I shall not break my principles here. I wouldn’t have stolen your possessions if you hadn’t provoked us first. I know that sof you will not accept this outcome, but that’s fine with me. You’re free to cafterif you feel indignant.
“However, let it be known that I have gone easy on you this time. It doesn’t matter towho your parents, master, sect, or clan are; I will not show mercy a second time. Scram!”
Chu Feng spoke with a peaceful voice, but his final word was overflowing with murderous intent. That sent a shiver down the spines of the Ancient Era’s juniors. They hurriedly escaped via the ‘Depart’ spirit formation gate.
Even the Ancient Era’s juniors, who weren’t targets of vengeance, fled too.
Chu Feng didn’t stop them, for he had no reason to do that.
