Several people looked unhappy, "Brother Bai Zhan, we have been paying tribute to you with immortal crystals every day. What's the point of betrayal? Isn't this something we both agreed to
You can't protect us right now, and since we are both paying respects, we naturally prefer the stronger one."
"Yeah, Brother Bai Zhan, you can't blame us for this."
Bai Zhan raised his eyebrows and said, "I told you that I was careless before, which led to my defeat. I am already a fighter of the Ding Shang level, and it won't take long for me to be promoted to the C level.
That human is just a newcomer, how can he be my opponent! "
Seeing that the four people were silent, Bai Zhan softened his tone, "Forget it. Considering that this is your first offense and you have been very respectful to me in the past, I will punish you by making each of you pay me a hundred immortal crystals as a tribute, and we will let this matter go."
The four of them looked slightly changed. One hundred immortal crystals were a lot, especially for them, the low-level fighters.
The monkey looked embarrassed, "Brother Bai Zhan, isn't one hundred immortal crystals a bit too much? In the past, we only gave you twenty or thirty immortal crystals as tribute, and we have already given you this month's tribute."
Bai Zhan looked at the monkey unhappily, "How dare you, a fence-sitter, betray me? I won't bother with you. I just asked you to pay some immortal crystals as a tribute, but you dare to refuse?"
"But one hundred immortal crystals are really too much. After a fight, we not only have to buy immortal medicine to heal our wounds, but we also have to consume immortal crystals to replenish our immortal energy. I really can't afford to give them as a filial gift."
"How about next month? Next month we will find a way to save more immortal crystals to honor you."
Bai Zhan was so angry that he laughed, "You guys are really awesome, if I hadn't backed you up in the arena, do you think you could have survived until now
When you lost before, those people didn't beat you to death because they saw me, Bai Zhan, as their honor. Why are you going to bite me, your old master, now that you have a new master?"
Monkey and the other four looked very unhappy. No one would be able to swallow such humiliation.
It is true that they used to be dependent on Bai Zhan, but Bai Zhan also received a lot of tributes from them.
According to the unwritten rules in the fighting arena, since Bai Zhan lost, it was reasonable for them to turn to the person who defeated Bai Zhan.
The monkey bowed to Bai Zhan seriously and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "Brother Bai Zhan, you lost. It is normal for us to rely on the strong. If you are unwilling to accept it, you can challenge Xu Xianzi. When you win, we will apologize to you."
Anger flashed in Bai Zhan's eyes. He grabbed the monkey's neck, lifted him up, and tightened his grip.
"What do you mean? Do you think I'm no match for that human?"
The monkey was hung in the air by the neck and soon he could not breathe. His face turned red, but he kept looking at Bai Zhan.
He spoke with difficulty, "We have to fight to know whether you are a match or not. You said you were careless last time. If we fight again, you should try your best, right?"
Bai Zhan stared at the monkey coldly for a long time. He exerted a little force with his knuckles and heard a crisp "click" sound. The monkey's larynx broke, and its head lost support and fell weakly to one side.
"monkey!"
The other three were shocked and angry when they saw this scene. They shouted at Bai Zhan, "Bai Zhan, have you forgotten the rules of the fighting arena? You are not allowed to hurt anyone's life!"
Bai Zhan smiled contemptuously, threw the monkey to the ground like a dead dog, and looked down at the other three people.
"You guys are not worthy of me breaking the rules. This is just a lesson for you. If you dare to be rude to me, this is the result."
The other three were all angry but dared not speak. Although the rules of the arena were not to hurt anyone's life, there were too many ways to torture people. If they used up all the immortal crystals on their bodies and went to the arena to participate in the fight with serious injuries, they would most likely die in the arena.
Seeing that the three of them kept their mouths shut and dared not say more, Bai Zhan grinned with satisfaction.
"I'll give you half a day. No matter what method you use, gather the immortal crystals I want. Tonight, I'll visit you one by one. If you don't have them, don't blame me for being ruthless."
After Bai Zhan left, the three men quickly helped the monkey up and looked at him worriedly.
"How are you, Monkey?"
The monkey coughed up some blood, touched his broken collarbone, and said stumblingly, "It's okay..."
As he spoke, he took out a small porcelain bottle, took out a pill from the bottle, looked at it with pain, and then put the pill into his mouth.
After the pill was taken, it turned into a pure medicinal power and quickly repaired the broken bones.
The monkey's complexion also turned rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He touched the broken bone again, and after confirming that the wound had healed, he looked at the other three people and said, "Let's go find Xu Xianzi."
"this… "
The other three looked apprehensive. "Although we have presented fairy crystals to Fairy Xu, she is a newcomer after all and is not familiar with the rules of the fighting arena. Will she be unwilling to help us?"
The monkey's expression remained unchanged. "Then what do you think? Do you really want to pay Bai Zhan a hundred immortal crystals as a tribute?"
The three of them fell silent.
They did have a hundred immortal crystals, but this was equivalent to most of their assets.
Who would be willing to give away so many immortal crystals to others at once
When the monkey saw this, he knew that they had the same idea as he did and was unwilling to suffer this loss for no reason.
"How about this, we go find Fairy Xu and explain the situation first. Even if she is unwilling to help us, at least she won't attack us. If she really doesn't want to intervene, we can think of another way."
When the other three heard this, they also thought that this method was feasible, so they followed the monkey and walked towards Xu Chunniang's residence.
When Xu Chunniang heard the knock on the door, she was a little surprised. Her place was remote and she would not have been able to find this place if she hadn't come here specially.
She released her spiritual sense to scan the area and found that it was Monkey and others who were knocking on the door. She raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"Come in."
Monkey and his friends pushed the door open, and when they saw Xu Chunniang standing in the yard with her hands behind her back, they were all a little nervous.
Xu Chunniang looked at the four people, and finally set her eyes on the monkey, "You guys went back, is there something wrong?"
The monkey calmed himself down, stepped forward and bowed, "Xu Xianzi, there is something I forgot to tell you before. We, the lower-level fighters, have a hard time making a living in the arena. In order to survive, we have to rely on the strong.
Before, we were dependent on Bai Zhan, the giant who was defeated by you not long ago. It was because of his protection that we were able to save our lives when we encountered opponents we could not defeat in the arena.
In exchange, we will pay him a sum of immortal crystals every month."
Xu Chunniang nodded thoughtfully, "I understand. So the person you are relying on now is me?"
