Swallowing the Stars: Realm of Control

Chapter 82 Account

Luo Feng put all of that batch of Qi Sand into his spatial treasure bottle. This batch was definitely worth close to 700,000, and with the 100,000 he had won, it came to more than 800,000, enough for him to break through to the Bone Forging Realm.

By then, we will be even stronger.

Having accepted the Qi Sand, Luo Feng glanced around the room, his gaze settling on Jian Zi: "What just happened? Envoy, how did you get beaten up like this?"

Before anyone else could speak, Mu Su realized what was happening:

"Brother, this guy just went into a qi deviation and became possessed. He kept attacking himself, and we couldn't stop him."

"Yes, yes, that's right, we couldn't stop them no matter what. Iron Willow Guard, am I right?" Makino winked at Iron Willow.

Tie Liu felt a chill run down his spine. He had previously thought that Xingchen was an honest man, but now it seemed that he was simply a rogue.

That's completely backwards.

But he didn't dare say anything more, only saying with a regretful expression, "That's right, it seems that something possessed the envoy just now, and then he uncontrollably harmed himself."

Luo Feng looked at the miners with a blank expression.

Even the most naive miners understood, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we all saw it just now."

Jian Zi's face twitched again, and he couldn't hold back the mouthful of blood, so he immediately spat it out.

rogue!

He's an absolute scoundrel!

Is this something a human would say? Nobody would believe it if they heard it.

Luo Feng didn't need the Five Peaks Sect's trust; what he wanted was to swallow those hundreds of thousands of Qi Sands in front of Tie Liu, which were impossible to confiscate and give to Dongmu County.

At that time, I'm afraid Yan Dongmu will force himself on me.

After this incident, Yan Dongmu probably hates himself to the core.

Luo Feng certainly didn't intend to go back. Now that he had the Qi Sand, there was no need to send it back.

"Oh dear, where did your spatial bottle go?" Luo Feng tossed the spatial bottle back and said with a surprised look.

Jianzu almost vomited blood again. He retrieved the treasure bottle and hurriedly went to Tieliu's side.

"Iron Willow Guard, please escort me back. I may have been possessed by an evil spirit just now." He was worried that the star might kill him on the way.

"Alright, now that the ore has been mined enough, it's time to head back." Tie Liu nodded slightly, then looked at Luo Feng, as if to ask for his opinion.

Luo Feng looked towards the mine: "There should still be a little ore inside. As the person in charge, I haven't obtained much Qi Sand. Why don't you leave the rest to me?"

Kill the Sword Master?

Unless Luo Feng has lost his mind.

Making an enemy and killing someone are two different things.

Now that they've become enemies, the guys they send shouldn't be too strong, or rather, the Five Peaks Sect won't go to such lengths to investigate him, which gives him some breathing room.

If he is killed, it will offend the Five Peaks Sect. They will then launch a large-scale search for him, and he will have no chance of escape.

The reason for staying here is simply to make it easier to leave.

Once Tie Liu and Jian Zuo returned, Luo Feng was also going to slip away.

In any case, given their established identities and reputation for hatred, the Five Peaks Sect wouldn't consider itself a low-key rise to power.

"Alright then." Tie Liu nodded. "I'll head back to report now. Take care."

Tie Liu wasn't stupid; he understood the implication: from now on, they could only meet again in the martial world.

He gave a slight bow and was about to leave.

"Did you forget something?" Luo Feng said softly, glancing at Mu Ye.

Mu Ye immediately smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the Sword Master only has 500,000 Qi Sand left in his spatial bottle. If Dongmu County takes one million of that, it feels a bit inappropriate."

Luo Feng nodded, that's exactly what he meant.

Tie Liu is a smart man; it all depends on his comprehension.

Tie Liu felt bitter inside.

Looking at it this way, it seems that the star hasn't forgotten him... Since he's about to leave, giving him his life seems like the least he can do to save face.

With a wry smile and a wave of his hand, Tie Liu conjured up a pile of Qi Sand on the ground, resigning himself to being a "helpless" good person.

"Let's go," Tie Liu said helplessly.

Tie Liu led his men, with Jian Zuo following behind in a dejected manner, and then headed back towards Dongmu County.

Watching the group depart, Makino said, "Shouldn't we be leaving too?"

Luo Feng nodded and waved his hand to accept the Qi Sand.

Later, this swordsman will also ask Yan Dongmu for a replacement, so why not just give it to him?

He looked at the miners and said, "You should still be able to find a little bit of Qi Sand in the mine. If you find it, it's yours. Don't worry, even if Yan Dongmu is furious, he won't take it out on you. He'll put the blame on me. Just say that I forced you to do it."

"Once you've earned this Qi Sand, if Dongmu County no longer wants you, then retire and return to your hometown to live a good life. From now on, you can join forces and go back on your own."

The miners looked at each other, and finally bowed to Luo Feng, saying, "Thank you, Deputy City Lord."

They only felt that Luo Feng was a good person. If it were anyone else, they would have taken every grain of Qi Sand, and there would be no room for them.

Right now, inside the mine, it's possible for each person to find four or five.

Luo Feng waved his hand, and the miners excitedly headed into the mine.

"Let's go," Luo Feng said to Mu Ye.

Makino's two bodies followed behind Luo Feng.

Their direction was not towards Dongmu County, but rather towards the depths of this desolate mountain wilderness.

Luo Feng's strength is now formidable, even approaching that of his parents. With his current abilities, he can certainly survive in this desolate wilderness.

……

Dongmu County City.

Jian Zi followed Tie Liu back here, and the expression on his face finally relaxed. He had been worried the whole way that a star would suddenly appear behind him and kill him.

Back in Dongmu County, with the city lord Yan Dongmu keeping things in check, at least that Xingchen wouldn't dare to act recklessly.

"Oh, envoy, I'm sorry to have made you suffer," Tie Liu said helplessly from inside the carriage.

"Hmph." Jian Zi snorted coldly. "I'm going to see Yan Dongmu!"

The carriage entered the city gate and headed straight for the city lord's mansion.

It took about an hour to arrive.

Jian Zi was so afraid of showing his face that he put on a hat to cover his head and face.

With Tie Liu leading the way, they quickly returned to the city lord's office.

Knowing that Tie Liu and the others were returning today, Yan Dongmu prepared wine and drinks in the main hall, which could be considered a celebration banquet for the successful mining of the Qi Sand.

At the entrance of the main hall.

"They're back, but where are Brother Xingchen and the messenger?" Yan Dongmu asked in confusion.

"Yan Dongmu." The cloaked swordsman snorted coldly, his voice filled with intense anger: "I order you, go and kill Xingchen now!"

"What's going on?" Yan Dongmu looked at Tie Liu.

Tie Liu was embarrassed and didn't know how to explain the matter. He dared not offend the Sword Inspector, so he told him everything.

It all started exactly as Luo Feng accused the inspector of corruption.

Yan Dongmu's expression changed: "How dare this Xingchen?!"

"Sword Envoy, I will definitely give you an explanation." Yan Dongmu immediately promised, his heart already sweating.

Those who come from above are not to be trifled with. No matter how outrageous they are, you can't afford to offend them, otherwise you might not only lose your position as city lord, but also your life.

He never expected that the guy who came back then was actually a Buddha!

"Hmph, explain? How are you going to explain this to me? My Qi Sand deficiency is more than enough for you to fill." Jian Zi coldly rebuked.

But he also knew that it would be difficult to get Yan Dongmu to kill Luo Feng, as Luo Feng had probably escaped to who-knows-where.

Not to mention Yan Dongmu, even he himself would find it difficult to find someone else.

Right now, the most important thing is to fill the gap in Qi Sha and extort some money from him, which will make him feel a little more at ease.

As for revenge, once the Qi Sand is in place, he will have plenty of ability to return to the Five Peaks Sect.
