Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 847 848: Reduced to Slavery

Now Emperor Star is in distress, with two great elders defecting from the academy simultaneously, causing the morale at Emperor Star Academy to plummet. This is no different from a betrayal during a battle between two armies, and such people are the most detestable.

Such people must be executed by Emperor Star.

But now with Zai Qiu's intervention, how difficult it is to slay these two!

"Today, they can betray Emperor Star Academy; tomorrow they can betray your Heaven Slayer Academy just as easily. Have you really thought this through?" Di Cang's voice was imposing, shaking hearts, but Zai Qiu merely sneered, "I have naturally considered it thoroughly!"

With these words spoken, the five elders and two elders finally felt a weight lifted from their hearts, for they knew all too well that if Heaven Slayer Academy rejected them, they would surely die today.

Therefore, they both stepped forward, cupping their fists toward Zai Qiu, "Many thanks for Vice Chancellor Zai's kindness in taking us in!"

"Don't thank me too early!" Zai Qiu glanced at them and then two pills appeared in his hand, which he tossed to them, saying, "I must consider Di Cang's words seriously. If you can betray Emperor Star, naturally you can also betray me, Zai Qiu. So take these pills!"

After he spoke, Zai Qiu waved his hand, throwing the two pills to them, making their expressions not very good, as even a fool would understand what these pills meant.

"This..."

"Unwilling?" Zai Qiu's eyes emitted a cold air.

"Not at all!" The two elders of Emperor Star Academy spoke, "It's just..."

"There's no 'just.' If you're unwilling, then do as you please!" Zai Qiu's gaze grew even colder as he continued, "To tell you the truth, this is a Blood Soul Pill. After taking it, without my timely antidote, within a month, your bloodline will explode and you'll die. After taking it, you will be slaves of Zai Qiu!"

"Slaves of Zai Qiu?" Hearing this, the two elders were dumbfounded, as they had been elders at Emperor Star Academy, key pillars with high stature and authority. Yet now, joining Heaven Slayer Academy, they are only fit to be slaves to Zai Qiu?

Unimaginable, how is this not an unbearable shame?

However, what choice is there? Facing them now is only one path. If they don't swallow the pills, Zai Qiu won't protect them, and thus, they must face the consequences at Emperor Star.

"Serves them right!" The great elder snorted, "Such despicable traitors deserve to be dealt with in this manner!"

"Exactly, our Emperor Star Academy has stood in the Ancient Martial Realm for a thousand years. Such parasites are better off gone!" The other elders echoed, as if they were ashamed of them.

At this moment, the Demon Monarch's pupils looked at Zai Qiu, smiling, "Vice Chancellor Zai has quite the means, congratulations on acquiring two more obedient slaves!"

With these words, the expressions of the five elders and two elders worsened, but there was only one path for them now—to take the pill in hand. So, they both threw the pills into their mouths.

Zai Qiu sneered, "This is this month's antidote. The antidote only lasts for a month; come to me next month to get another!"

After speaking, Zai Qiu threw a white pill to each of them, which they caught and swallowed.

...

Elsewhere, at the stone gambling ground.

At this moment, near Xiao Tianyu, the ground was piled with suitcases, numbered in the thousands, stacked like mountains. It's hardly surprising; ten billion in cash is an unimaginably large sum.

Especially for Yuanfeng of the Qianhe, every time he saw these suitcases, he felt heartache. This was the money of his Qianhe Clan, yet now, it was being handed over to Xiao Tianyu.

Thinking of this, Yuanfeng wished to tear apart the middle-aged man managing the stone gambling ground. Why provoke this small ancestor? Now it's snagged, not only does the Top Grade raw stone have to be given away, but ten billion also has to be compensated.

Compensating ten billion is one thing, but then he has to ask if Xiao Tianyu is satisfied.

Seeing the suitcases stacked on the vacant ground, the surrounding crowd was all dumbfounded. Did the Qianhe Clan Leader really compensate ten billion? Are we sure this is not a mistake? We just want to ask if those suitcases are filled with money and not waste paper?

Although they thought this, everyone understood it was definitely money. They were perplexed, however, by why Yuanfeng of Qianhe was so fearful of that youth. What exactly was that youth's identity?

Was he truly a Saint Child from some academy? This was already the boldest thought among them, and they didn't dare think further.

"With all this cash, surely you won't make me carry it box by box back home, will you?" At this moment, Xiao Tianyu spoke lightly, and Yuanfeng of Qianhe showed a servile smile, "Of course, we will deliver it to your door, Xiao Shao, rest assured!"

With that, Yuanfeng of Qianhe turned to Qianhe Fei', "You fat pig, why are you still here, go find a few trucks and haul this money to Emperor Star Academy!"

"What, Emperor Star Academy?" With these words, everyone present was incredibly alarmed. Coupling this with Yuanfeng of Qianhe calling him Xiao Shao repeatedly, wow~ inside the crowd's hearts were incomparably stirred with towering waves.

For someone to be feared by Yuanfeng of Qianhe like this, and with the surname Xiao, so young, perhaps at Emperor Star Academy, there's only one legendary figure that matches!

"Oh my god, he... he couldn't be the legendary chairman of Emperor Star Academy, Xiao Tianyu, could he!"

"My goodness, my heart almost leaped into my throat!"

"So, standing before us was the legendary Xiao Tianyu. This time going home, I'll have something to brag about!"

"I was just standing next to him. If I'd known sooner, I'd have taken out my phone for a picture to show off back home!"

"..."

After the shock, many around exhibited a hint of admiration. They were also young men in their twenties; why was he the legendary figure, while they could only work construction?

This can't even be compared.

Both men, such differences are too vast.

Looking back, no wonder he could execute Clan Leader Wu Yunhao with one sword. The Wu Clan's demise isn't undeserved, insulting Xiao Tianyu's woman. How many lives do you have?

Speechless.

This moment, Qianhe Fei' also expressed bewilderment; how could he be Xiao Tianyu? My goodness, I was just sparring with Xiao Tianyu? No wonder, just his aura could pin me to the ground; it seems there was a reason for it.

Thinking back to how Qianhe Fei' acted impressive before Xiao Tianyu, but now, it was like showing off a knife before Guan Gong.

This boasting not only got struck by lightning, but not being killed shows his ancestors were protecting him.

"Refund the principal tenfold?" Earlier, that middle-aged man at the stone gambling ground was utterly shocked. He even felt it was his greatest fortune that Xiao Tianyu didn't kill him. Now, how dare he embezzle the Top Grade raw stone of Xiao Tianyu's goddess? It's like lighting a lamp in the toilet.

"Boss, boss..." At this moment, Guan Zhongyuan, Qiu Qianren, and Ximen Chuixue came running over in enthusiasm, with Guan Zhongyuan holding several ancient books in his hand.
