Chapter 46 Sequestration Schemes Everywhere in the Taihang Mountains
Lu Sheng glanced around, smiling as he memorized each person who had mocked him, then smiled and said:
"Although this kind of tactic is a bit old, it's still a business, and making money isn't shameful."
His appearance slowly returned to normal, and he said again:
"The dignity of a king cannot be insulted. You have shown contempt for the king, and you think you can get away with it so easily?"
"Make your ancestors pay up, or you're going to die."
"Surely you don't even know what I look like?"
"Oh, you definitely don't know."
Lu Sheng stared at Huang Xiaoxian, who still maintained that angry expression.
He clicked his tongue and said, "You must be a poor bastard. Tell that big weasel to hand over everything he has. I'm going to take 70% of what's in the mountains from now on."
Huang Xiaoxian immediately retorted, "Who are you? I don't know what's wrong with you. Everyone here is a descendant of a king. Do you think you're the only one with a king behind you?"
"Shut up!" Kong Sheng slapped Huang Xiaoxian across the face, took a deep breath, and said to Lu Sheng in a humble tone:
"We apologize, Sect Master. It was our fault. We sincerely apologize to you. This fellow is at your disposal."
Lu Sheng waved his finger: "No, no, no, it's not just about this weasel anymore. The dignity of a king cannot be insulted."
"Right now, contact all your beast kings and tell them to pay up honestly."
"Being able to consume the Transformation Fruit and be sent to human society, and even having resources provided to break free of shackles, I think you should be considered quite favored."
"No one leaves without paying."
"Oh, except for the monkeys over there. Say hello to the old monkey for me."
Yuan Feng cupped his hands in greeting and retreated to a corner, not wanting to get involved any further.
Lu Sheng had been to their Songshan Mountain to hunt, and his family's "Ape King" (a nickname for a male character) would get a terrible headache just thinking about it.
There's no need to show off in situations like this.
Indeed, learning about human knowledge is useful; etiquette is an important thing.
Kong Sheng's face turned ashen. He simply couldn't imagine that a human expert at the Beast King level would be so shameless as to threaten the king behind them with their lives.
He spoke again, "The kings made a peace treaty with the human race, and you were one of the witnesses. Are you now going to break that treaty?"
"This will inevitably cause our land to bleed again. I hope you will reconsider."
As they spoke, many human financial groups gathered around and tried to dissuade them, saying, "Sect Leader Lu, let it go. Don't bother with a junior. Let's keep the peace."
Lu Sheng scoffed, "You think you can presume to value peace?"
"Stop pretending. It's because I'm strong enough. If I were a useless dog, I might have someone assassinate me as soon as I went downstairs."
"Pay up, hand over all the local specialties from your own territory, or you can try to escape."
Lu Sheng sneered, "Let's see if you can run faster or I can kill you faster."
Some of the organizers were sweating profusely and continued to dissuade him, saying, "Mr. Lu, it's best to be lenient when possible. Please leave."
"Stop what? Enough nonsense. Do you think I, the number one expert in Kyushu and the leader of the Hokuto Shinken sect, am someone that just some Tom, Dick, or Harry can easily provoke, insult, and beat me up, and then nothing happens?"
Lu Sheng tilted his head slightly, looking at the organizers: "Say one more word, and I'll take care of you all."
"How about we have a contest? Will you destroy my Hokuto Shinken sect first, or will I raze your stronghold to the ground?"
The organizers dared not say anything more; they couldn't afford to offend them.
"Time is limited, hurry up and call for help. They're all decent-looking, surely they can make a phone call too."
Lu Sheng moved a stool, sat down by the door, and said leisurely:
"If the price I pay doesn't satisfy me, I'll bear the consequences."
"Of course you can find your backers to help you deal with me, but you wouldn't be so stupid as to break ties at a time like this, would you?"
"Do you think it'll be faster for me to kill you all, or for them to team up against me?"
"Just send the stuff over first. Once you're safe, come and cause me trouble. I'm a very magnanimous person."
Lu Sheng's words sent chills down the spines of everyone present.
Kong Sheng's face stiffened, and he dared not utter another word of rebuttal. He slowly said, "I will immediately ask my clansmen to send gifts to apologize to you."
"That's a good boy." Lu Sheng laughed.
The other beast princes and their descendants all yielded to Kong Sheng and bowed their heads one after another.
Where can we learn from the mistakes of the Wolf King?
Many radical beast kings hated Lu Sheng to the core, but were powerless to do anything about it.
What can these beast princes and their descendants do?
Desperately?
Do not make jokes.
It is precisely because they are the descendants of the Beast King that they understand even more how powerful that stage is.
How big is the difference between a top-tier Beast King and a beginner Beast King?
Lu Sheng is someone even the most powerful beast kings choose to join forces with; he is someone they absolutely cannot afford to provoke.
The group of beast princes and their grandsons looked at Huang Xiaoxian as if they wanted to kill him.
Soon, the Beast King spoke to Lu Sheng through a communicator. His face was icy, and he spoke with suppressed anger:
"Lord of Taihang Mountain, don't go too far."
"That weasel offended you. You can kill it or torture it as you please, but give us back our descendants."
The king behind the weasel is just a newly crowned king.
The descendants of these veteran beast kings, such as Yuan Feng and Kong Sheng, will undoubtedly achieve great things in the future.
Even if you wipe out the entire weasel family, it still wouldn't compare to their descendants.
"What's the rush? Who said we wouldn't pay it back? You little brats have no sense of propriety, and you can't blame me for that?"
Lu Sheng calmly said, "Give me two tons of fruit as a snack first. An apology should be sincere."
"I recently tore myself two more times without realizing it. I don't think you guys can keep up with me."
"Don't give me any of that agreement. You yourselves said that a king cannot be humiliated."
"If you're going to tell me to be magnanimous, then I'll send people to your territory tomorrow to stake out and harvest your produce. Will you step in to stop them?"
The figure opposite was very agitated, but still managed to suppress his temper and said, "I can compensate you, but you're asking for too much."
Lu Sheng: "Alright, then forget about it. I'll take them back to the Taihang Mountains, and we'll redeem them slowly once we've gathered them all."
After saying that, he turned off the communicator.
How could he let such a great opportunity slip by?
Every little bit helps; if the opponent gets angry, that's a good opportunity to launch another attack.
Too many people eat meat.
Instead of wasting so many resources on some nobodies, it's better to use them on him.
When the alien evolvers appear in the future, he can step up and take the lead.
"Let's go back to the Taihang Mountains and have a cup of tea first."
With a wave of his hand, Lu Sheng immediately grabbed most of the beast princes who had come to the banquet, tied them together with divine chains, and took them away.
This action immediately alarmed both the human and demon realms.
The demon race rallied to condemn Lu Sheng.
The human group split into two camps. One group praised Lu Sheng for doing a good job, having long disliked those arrogant and domineering individuals. The other group voiced their opposition, believing that Lu Sheng was undermining cooperation between humans and demons and destroying peace.
