Strange. Who's Stephen?
Jia Liang didn't know. But taking it as an insult, he growled back, "Keh! Surrender? Never. Give a good ti if you dare!"
That defiance made Bubai smile.
"Hey, hey, not surrendering, right? Oh~ so brave. Admire. Admire!"
Before Jia Liang could snap back, his neck was forcefully twisted to the side.
Their eyes t, and a tiny pipe breathed out a puff of pale smoke right into Jia Liang's distorted face!
"Kek- Kek- Soft Beauty Powder?! You-"
The effects were almost instantaneous, and the bull's struggles weakened.
Drugs don't discriminate between genders.
Soft Beauty Powder can soften even the bones of the foundation-realm Xiao Hong, let alone this dog.
Once another dose of muscle relaxants were added, the changed roles have basically solidified.
But just to be safe...
A handy dandy mid-grade dantian sealing talisman was slapped right onto the loser's navel, and an iron chain looped around him!
Soon, the completely bundled-up fish plopped down on the cold, hard ground.
"Let , go!" Jia Liang thrashed like a fish on a hook.
The chains creaked hard, but his struggles were too weak to break free.
The slyly-smiling Bubai crossed his arms and looked down at the fish on the chopping board. "I'll let you go if you surrender. How?"
The fish lying sideways spat phlegm on the fisherman's boots. "Kek. You. Wish!"
"Aiya, what a tough bone..."
Really tough indeed. Even bashing him in the head multiple tis couldn't knock him out!
Beefy brutes like this really are the most annoying to take down.
If it weren't for his worries of accidentally dealing a fatal crit, this would have been a whole lot easier!
This brute with a brain probably understood this. Hence why he dared to be so shaless.
This brute must be thinking he can't do anything to him, and that he'll eventually break free to make a coback.
Gotta llow out that fluke ntality.
Seeing the smiling tiger squat down to untie the pouch from his waist, Jia Liang went stiff and snarled, "What are you doing?"
"What am I doing?" Grinning, Bubai lightly tossed the pouch in his hands up and down.
"Well, you said you're never going to surrender, right? I respect that bravery! It's just that… I wonder how long it'll take for you to eat your words. Hehehe…"
Since Qi refiners can't refine storage pouches, they were all unlocked. So…
Bubai pried open the pouch. When he peeked inside, his eyes lit up.
"Whew~ a rich little boy, aren't ya! Oooh, but what a ss you've got here. Tsk. Tsk."
Plucking out a spirit stone, Bubai weighed it in hand and gave the bound Jia Liang a kind smile.
"Since you're so dead set on not surrendering, feel free to stay there and watch help you... tidy up your items one by one. No need to thank ."
Bubai then unceremoniously pocketed the spirit stone into his own pouch, making the eyes of the fish bulge in anger.
"You—you rat! How dare you?! Openly stealing from , do you think I'll let you off! Put that back or see what happens!"
Cutting off a person's cultivation resources was really worse than beating them up.
Just look. It was like this brute was injected with chicken blood and can't wait to peck the egg thief to death.
But is the thief scared? Haha.
"Oooh, so scary~ Hey, hey, I really want to see what you'll do. Hehehe…"
Bubai grinned and fished out a random small treasure chest. "Wow~ What's this?"
Jia Liang's face changed and struggled even harder than before. "No! That's the magic beast core I bought to worship my father! You can't take that!"
"Oh really? Then... thank you very much."
"You—you little—!"
anwhile, in a private box…
Standing with a folding fan clasped behind his back, a young noble's hawk-like eyes were trained on the farce down below.
"So... that's the beggar you told about? Just a seventh-level Qi refinent trash, is he?"
Standing beside him was a well-dressed young man quaking in his shoes.
If Bubai was here, he would recognize this guy to be none other than the arrogant dandy who ca to brush his face outside the coliseum!
But now, this dandy lost all traces of arrogance under the questioning of the young noble, and he ekly stamred, "Th-that… big brother… He might be hiding a bit of strength, but… it's really no big deal…"
"No big deal?" The young noble shut him up with a single, icy glance.
"The first round, you can push it off to luck and sneaky tricks. But that wolf from the Jia Clan is not so stray dog."
"To call the one that beat him like a child 'no big deal'… do you take us all for blind fools?"
The dandy's head dipped so low it almost stuck to his chest.
Seeing his useless younger brother shrinking like a coward again, the young noble's eyes flashed with unhappiness, but in the end, it was replaced by a sigh.
The young noble's folded fan beckoned, and a eunuch stepped closer and bowed deeply.
"Young Lord Wu, according to our clan's sources, that young bird is soone brought back by Elder Ma through the backdoor almost half a year ago…"
"Supposedly, he's only ant to be a furnace for one of the elder's nad disciples, but aside from that... there's little else that's noteworthy."
"Nothing noteworthy... is that so?"
There was no change in the young noble's expression, but those eyes weren't convinced at all.
"Go. Send so of our down-line to touch his bottom line and see what we can find."
"By your command."
The eunuch bowed and back out from the room.
Seeing this, the dandy's face lit up, emboldened. "Big Brother, that—"
"Khan'er. How many tis have I taught you not to provoke others without reason?"
"Yes, yes, I know…" Wu Khan's eyes rolled and seized the chance to solidify his stand.
"But this ti, I really did it for big brother's good! I saw the cauldron by that beggar's side and thought it would be a perfect sacrifice to worship brother!"
"Oh?" The young noble shot his younger brother a withering look.
Wu Khan licked his dry lips. "Big brother, rember that foundation stage palace lady under Elder Ma? Since she appeared out here, she must have lost favor and is now up for grabs…"
"Big brother, this is a once-in-a-decade opportunity! You must seize this chance!"
"Hmm?" The young noble's eyebrow arched with mild interest.
"Indeed, jewels like her aren't often found outside those walls. If I get my hands on her… hmm, should be enough to advance a small realm."
After weighting the benefits in his mind, he shot his little brother a cool, sidelong glance.
"After I'm done sowing my seed in her, you can have your fun. But don't let there be a next ti."
"Yes, yes sir!" Wu Khan rapidly bobbed his head and eagerly seized the chance to fawn all over his brother.
"Hehe. Khan'er is so lucky to have the best brother in the world!"
"That guy can never compared to a brilliant hero like big brother because the na Wu Chaofeng will one day make every genius on the Earth and Heaven lists tremble!"
Wu Chaofeng waved off the flattery with a hint of boredom, his attention already pulled back to the scene outside the window.
His eyes flashed when he observed the disheveled-looking beggar boldly looting the defeated wolf's storage pouch.
Huh. Sobody who catches that crazy lion's eyes is definitely not simple. Just what else is he hiding?
...
"Hey, hey, do you surrender? No? Great!"
Seeing another spirit stone disappearing into the thief's pouch, the helpless brute twisted and struggled so hard that his veins were bulging.
"You rat! I won't let you off! My cousin won't let you off! The entire Jia clan won't let you off!"
"Uh-huh. Sure, sure… So terrifying~"
Bubai didn't take the threat too seriously.
The elders above weren't blind.
It's this idiot that's unwilling to surrender. What's that go to do with him?
There was no off-stage boundary in this death-fight arena.
He already made a great concession by not outright unaliving this obnoxious guy, and surely, a little fee wasn't too much.
As for whether his actions will offend soone? Sure.
But is Bubai afraid? Haha. Grow up. Who cares.
This Jia Liang's status was there, but when push ca to shove...
If he doesn't escalate this squabble between juniors to a feud involving lives, even if certain elders were angry, they will still give face to the elders standing behind himself.
Plus... as long as he is still business partners with Jia Shizi—the one who certainly has the stronger fist, will the rest of the Jia Clan bother to offend the big for the small?
"Kek! Think anyone will save a scum with zero balls like you? Just wait and see! If you don't kill now, I'll make you spit everything back out later!"
Oh rlin, sobody was getting quite noisy.
So, Bubai specially picked out a surprise from the pouch.
"Well, well, who does this red silk treasure belong to? Your sister-in-law? Tsk, tsk, young people are so indecent nowadays..."
Grinning, Bubai balled up the delicate undies and stuffed it into the captive's foul mouth, even giving him a pat as if humoring a child. "Now, be good and surrender."
"Mmmph!!!" A man can die but shouldn't be humiliated!
The outraged man spat out the silken gag and struggled against the chains with renewed fury.
"I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"
The chant of hate repeated over and over.
Bubai nodded along to the music. "Yes, yes, you'll miss . I'll miss you too after all these generous gifts you've given ."
He wasn't kidding about the generous part.
These pampered second-generation of those blood sucking clans were really loaded!
This Qi-refinent grandson actually had a mid-grade pouch filled with all sorts of thingymabobbers—from talisman to pills, and best of all, a pile of spirit stones!
Sure, it wasn't as much as the glory Bubai glimpsed in a certain money bag's pouch, but it was enough to make the average foundation cultivator's eyes turn red!
Now, this oh-so-delicious fortune was becoming his one-by-one!
Even though Bubai adopted this asured "inventory check" pace to test upstair's reactions, he already pocketed over ten spirit stones!
Not to ntion all the other donations – talisman, pills, alongside other treasures!
rlin's beard! This round was profit! Pure profit!
But just when Bubai fished out another spirit stone…
"Enough!"
