“You… How dare you slap me…?”

Ding Xiadong was shocked by what had just happened to him. Even before he became a demigod, no one in their right mind would dare to slap him.

“Our… Our faction leader has just been slapped by Chen Xiaobei… Oh my god… Is that an illusion?”

All 5,000 people around them were left totally dumbfounded. It was just half a minute ago that Ding Xiadong announced he was going to kill Chen Xiaobei. And now, he did not even dare to defend himself right after Chen Xiaobei slapped him. All he did was to merely stand there like a statue. It was obvious from his actions that he just humiliated the entire faction.

“You! Ding Xiadong, ordered your grand elder to bring a hundred men to attempt and kill me at Dragon City! Out of sheer kindness, I let all 100 of your disciples to live to see tomorrow! And I even spared your grand elder, Han Wuchang’s life! Is this how you repay my kindness?! By killing me?! Be grateful that I’m only punishing you by just slapping you!”

“But… But…”

“No buts! Tell me. Should I slap you or not?! Or should I give you a different form of punishment?! I will make sure that you die a gruesome death!”

“Si… No! No! No! Mr. Chen! You did the right thing! I’m at fault here! I deserve the slap! Totally deserve it!”

Upon hearing that, all 5,000 people were taken aback. They found it hard to believe that their faction leader was a total coward in front of Chen Xiaobei. What they did not know was that Elder Luo was backing Chen Xiaobei up. Killing Ding Xiadong would be as easy as snapping a finger! Thus, that was why Ding Xiadong was so afraid of Chen Xiaobei.

“It looks like you don’t want to die yet!” said Chen Xiaobei with his eyes squinted.

“Of course not! I don’t want to die! Mr. Chen, please don’t mess around with me anymore. Please…” Ding Xiadong pleaded fearfully.

“Pay me 100,000 Spiritual Stones right now if you don’t want to die! Then all past bygones between us will be considered void. If not, be prepared to face the consequences!”

“What… 100… 100,000?!”

“All you needed to do was just to pay me 10,000 Spiritual Stones at first, but since you refuse to pay me, I have changed my mind! Now, I insist on 100,000 Spiritual Stones! Pay or prepare to die!”

“Mr. Chen! Please have mercy… 100,000 Spiritual Stones is an tremendous amount of wealth! I don’t have that many Spiritual Stones with me!”

“Okay! End of discussion then!”

Chen Xiaobei then shrugged his shoulder and took out his cellphone.

“Mr… Mr. Chen… Who are you calling?!”

“I’m calling those that can kill you.” said Chen Xiaobei nonchalantly, his tone composed.

Actually, he was just putting up an act. He knew that Elder Luo would never showcase his strength in front of others. Seeing that Ding Xiadong was still drenched in fear, Chen Xiaobei knew that a simple act as such would be able to make him succumb to his demands.

“No! Mr. Chen! Please don’t make the call! I… I will pay you the Spiritual Stones…”

It seemed as though Ding Xiadong valued his life more than anything else in this world. Seeing that it was impossible to bargain with Chen Xiaobei, he had finally decided to pay Chen Xiaobei 100,000 Spiritual Stones. He would not dare challenge Chen Xiaobei’s patience anymore.

“You have three minutes to bring me the Spiritual Stones!” said Chen Xiaobei after he kept his cellphone away.

“Yes… Yes… Yes… I will do it now…”

Ding Xiadong immediately led a group of his trusted disciples to carry 100,000 Spiritual Stones to Chen Xiaobei. He had always thought that he would not have the pay Chen Xiaobei the Spiritual Stones if he managed to kill him. Unfortunately, his master plan backfired. And now, he had to pay ten times the original amount! Not long after, a hundred boxes of Spiritual Stones were brought to Chen Xiaobei.

It was pretty obvious that these 100,000 Spiritual Stones were everything that Ding Xiadong owned. He would need another tens of thousands of years to cover the lost that he made today. And he had no one to blame but himself.

“Alright. Let’s forget about all the past conflicts we’ve had with each other. Also, I welcome you to come and seek your revenge! But you’d better then be sure to prepare another100,000 Spiritual Stones to buy your life back when you lose to me again!”

“No more… I would never dare to do so anymore…”

“See ya!”

Chen Xiaobei then swung his hand, stepped on the Somersault Cloud and left the place. Everyone including Ding Xiadong and all the other 5,000 disciples were still left in a state of bewilderment even after Chen Xiaobei left a while back.

“Initially, I was left with only 20,000 Spiritual Stones! With now, the addition of the 20,000 Spiritual Stones that I received from Kunlun Faction and the 100,000 Spiritual Stones that I received from Xingxiu Faction! I now have 140,000 Spiritual Stones! In other words, I can use the Blood God Deity Killing Painting for four times and will still have a remainder 20,000 Spiritual Stones!”

“Next, I need to head back to Northern Wilderness Starfield! I have to cure Wenren Muyue’s illness and begin my training as soon as possible after that! As for this place here on earth, I will have to wait for Gordon to dig out more info about the Prince-tier Dark Neutron before I head back here. I’m pretty sure that both Kunlun Faction and Mount Shu Faction will seek revenge from me the next time I come back here! And don’t forget about Lu Bu and Ji Xiong! I really need to improve my cultivation ASAP!”

“Lastly, regarding Emperor Qin’s tomb, Li Xiang still hasn’t updated me… Of course, it’s still important to me. All the factions that has something do with the Orochi Scales will have to prepare fully before they can act upon it! For now, all I can do is to only wait.”

It seems like Chen Xiaobei had everything planned perfectly for now. Once he returned to the old address of Bei Xuan Faction, he then triggered his Returning Bracelet to travel back to the starfield that his family just moved into. They had basically already gotten used to the lifestyle over there. Jing Fei had been constantly bringing them daily supplies and even the First Love Peach orchard was there as well.

The only problem that they were facing right now was…

Internet!

As for the electricity, Jing Fei had bought them a couple of generators. It was an easy problem to solve. However when it came to the internet, Jing Fei did not know what to do about it. And this problem had affected Old Wang the most. He felt like his life was meaningless when he could not lay his hands on Mobile Legend. The moment Chen Xiaobei came back to Bei Xuan Faction, Old Wang voiced out his concerns to him.

“Alright. No need to worry! Let me make some calls to a few people…”

Chen Xiaobei then whipped out his cellphone and called Ning Yuchen. He had always been Chen Xiaobei’s guide ever since he arrived at Northern Wilderness Starfield. He had taught him all that he needed to know so far and that was why Chen Xiaobei knew that he had called the right person.

But!

Chen Xiaobei’s face changed when Ning Yuchen picked up his call.
