Chapter 56

Chapter 54 - Extortion

"Kid, our boss is Duan Tianmeng. If you don't hand over the gold coins, you're dead. If you give us ten thousand gold coins, anyone who causes you trouble in the future can be dealt with by mentioning our boss's name. You only pay ten thousand gold coins and avoid a lot of trouble, so you're actually the one who benefits."

"Haha..." Tuoba Ye laughed loudly: "I think it's better if you all give me ten thousand gold coins, and when someone causes you trouble, you mention my name, Tuoba Ye, and I'll handle it for you."

Ten thousand gold coins were not a big deal for Tuoba Ye. This time, he came out with millions of gold coins to buy some treasures from the cultivation world to enhance the strength of the Tuoba family.

According to what he knew, some relatively ordinary treasures in the cultivation world were still traded with gold coins.

A large amount of gold coins could be refined into fine gold, which was an excellent material for forging flying swords, so gold coins still had a certain market.

Therefore, before leaving home, Xia Yuxuan gave Tuoba Ye quite a few gold coins. Originally, Tuoba Ye had tens of millions of gold coins, which he had given to Tuoba Xiong.

Although Tuoba Ye had a large amount of gold coins, he did not want to make it easy for these guys.

To establish himself in Immortal Cloud Valley, he would inevitably have conflicts with these people. Since that was the case, it might be better to establish his authority, and there might be other benefits in the future.

"Kid, you're playing with me! You're dead!" The tall teenager shouted angrily: "Everyone, attack him together and make him lie in bed for ten to fifteen days. By then, his spirit herbs will die, and see how he can complete his task."

This person was quite devious. Each outer disciple had a task, which was to take care of the spirit herbs in the garden. If the spirit herbs all died, they would be punished.

Several teenagers pounced on Tuoba Ye at the same time, ready to teach him a lesson.

These teenagers had been in Immortal Cloud Valley for quite some time, and their cultivation levels were mostly at the Fifth Star Innate Martial God level. The strongest was at the Sixth Star Innate Martial God level, which was very impressive in the outside world, considering their young age.

"This Tuoba Ye is really foolish. Judging by his attire, he can definitely come up with ten thousand gold coins. If he hands over ten thousand gold coins, he will avoid a lot of trouble, and it's still a good deal."

"This new disciple is in trouble, he actually provoked Duan Tianmeng's people."

Duan Tianmeng entered Immortal Cloud Valley at the age of ten and has been there for ten years. He is already a Ninth Star Innate Martial God level powerhouse, but he has not yet broken through to the Qi Cultivation realm.

To accumulate strength, Duan Tianmeng rallied a large number of outer disciples, forming a powerful force. They bullied and extorted gold coins in Immortal Cloud Valley, buying resources to enhance their strength.

Among the outer disciples, Duan Tianmeng is definitely one of the top hundred, with great strength and a fearsome reputation. No one dared to provoke him.

Tuoba Ye also heard the disciples' discussions, but he did not care at all.

His Primordial Force cultivation was at the Seventh Star Innate Martial God level, much higher than those present.

Even without using his physical strength, he could deal with the few guys in front of him.

Four or five tall teenagers pounced on Tuoba Ye without any coordination.

Tuoba Ye dodged with a flash and quickly moved behind the Sixth Star Innate Martial God.

He did not hold back, directly using his hand as a blade to strike the weak point of the opponent, who fell without even a groan.

The remaining four teenagers, seeing their companion fall, were not afraid, thinking it was a sneak attack.

"Everyone, be careful. This guy has some strength, be on guard against his sneak attacks!"

Tuoba Ye's movements were so swift that he had already taken down the person who spoke before he finished his sentence.

The next three strong opponents could not withstand a single move from Tuoba Ye. The Sixth Star Innate Martial God was careless and fell first; otherwise, he might have held out for a few more moves.

Mainly, Tuoba Ye's speed was too fast. Although he did not use his physical strength, his physical strength was there, making his speed much faster than that of peers.

The surrounding people were delighted to see Tuoba Ye get beaten up.

But in an instant, the five teenagers surrounding Tuoba Ye were all taken down. They all stared with wide eyes and open mouths, speechless.

"A Seventh Star Innate Martial God level powerhouse, a genius!"

Tuoba Ye looked to be around twelve or thirteen years old, and to be a Seventh Star Innate Martial God at that age was considered a genius.

If the surrounding people knew Tuoba Ye's real age, they would be even more shocked.

The five teenagers who attacked, except for the Sixth Star Innate Martial God who was unconscious, the other four were in great pain, rolling on the ground. They did not dare to look at Tuoba Ye, filled with fear.

The cultivation world valued strength more than the outside world, with strength being the ultimate respect.

Since Tuoba Ye's strength far exceeded theirs, they naturally feared him.

"This is the first time, so I'll let you off. If you cause me trouble again, I won't let you off so easily," Tuoba Ye said coldly.

After saying that, he continued forward, wanting to get to his garden as soon as possible.

After Tuoba Ye left, the four injured teenagers stood up, helped their unconscious companion, and quickly left.

Actually, Tuoba Ye did not use much force, so their injuries were not serious; they were just pretending.

Tuoba Ye did not care about that; he just wanted to get to his destination as soon as possible and learn about spirit herbs.

He had worked hard to join a cultivation sect and did not want to be expelled for not taking good care of the spirit herbs.

Not long after, he encountered more trouble.

"Kid, are you new here?" He was stopped by two teenagers.

"So what if I'm new?" Tuoba Ye said coldly.

He was getting angry, having been stopped multiple times.

"This is our Brother Lu Haicheng's territory. To pass through our territory, you need to pay ten thousand gold coins."

"Another ten thousand gold coins! Do you have a lot of gold coins?" Tuoba Ye said coldly.

"Kid, we are protected by Brother Lu Haicheng, so we have plenty of gold coins."

Tuoba Ye smiled: "Fine! You each give me twenty thousand gold coins, and I won't make things difficult for you. Otherwise, I'll make you regret it."

These outer disciples actually had their own territories and acted as they pleased on their own territory, which Tuoba Ye did not expect.

Since these people liked gold coins so much, he would make them pay more.

"Kid, are you asking for death? You dare to provoke Brother Lu Haicheng!"

"If you don't hand over the gold coins, you're the one asking for death!" Tuoba Ye said coldly.

The two strong opponents blocking his way were not very powerful, but many more strong opponents quickly surrounded Tuoba Ye, clearly part of Lu Haicheng's group.

Tuoba Ye frowned: "Who is Lu Haicheng?"

"Kid, do you think you can see Brother Lu Haicheng just like that?"

"Hand over the gold coins, or prepare to be beaten!"

Some poor kids could not afford to give gold coins to the outer elders or the old disciples, so they could only be beaten.

Unfortunately, Tuoba Ye was not such a new disciple. He took the initiative.

The surrounding dozen or so strong opponents were not weak, with the strongest being at his level.

Tuoba Ye attacked the strongest opponent first. He did not hesitate to use a sneak attack.

"First Move of the Tyrant God Fist: Tyrant Lifting the Cauldron!" Tuoba Ye used his ultimate move, catching and lifting the Seventh Star Innate Martial God level strong opponent.

Tuoba Ye grabbed the opponent's pressure points, making it impossible for him to move, then threw him far away, smashing a large area of spirit herbs in the garden.

"My spirit herbs! They're ruined! The Zhu Guo finally survived, and now it's crushed!" A teenager cried out in distress.

Ordinary spirit herbs were not a big deal; they could be obtained from others.

But the Zhu Guo was difficult to cultivate, and each outer disciple had to grow one. If the Zhu Guo did not grow properly, the responsible outer disciple would face severe punishment.

"Everyone, attack together and teach him a good lesson!"

"Teach him a lesson first, then go to his garden and transplant his Zhu Guo." A teenager suggested.

"Good! Let's do it!"

Tuoba Ye was angry: "You provoked me..."

"Kid, we're teaching you a lesson!" The group got closer.

These people were cautious. They could not see through Tuoba Ye's strength, and with their strongest companion thrown away, they naturally did not dare to be careless.

If it were not for their numbers, they would not dare to continue to cause trouble for Tuoba Ye.

The Seventh Star Innate Martial God level strong opponent stood up at this moment. He did not think a new disciple could be stronger than him, attributing his defeat to a lack of vigilance.

"Attack together, cripple him!" He got up, feeling humiliated, and shouted in anger.

They were all outer disciples and could not kill each other, but they could severely injure each other. Otherwise, he would have wanted to kill Tuoba Ye.

"Attack!"

"Attack together!"

They no longer hesitated and rushed forward.

Tuoba Ye sneered and struck like lightning.

He punched continuously, as fast as lightning. Before they knew what was happening, they were flying out, destroying many of their own spirit herbs.

"My garden is ruined!" A disciple shouted.

The other teenagers finally realized that this was their territory, and they were destroying their own spirit herbs.

With a large area of the garden destroyed, they would face punishment. The main task of outer disciples was to grow spirit herbs, and the destruction of spirit herbs had serious consequences.

"He destroyed everyone's garden, kill him!"

These disciples went crazy, getting up and rushing forward.

This time, Tuoba Ye did not use his fists. He kicked each one, throwing them out again, intentionally causing more damage to the spirit herbs.

At this moment, the outer disciples finally calmed down, realizing they had encountered a strong enemy.

They did not rush forward again. If they did, more gardens would be destroyed.

"Brother Tian Tong, we've encountered a powerful new disciple. What should we do?"

"I don't have any other options. We'll have to ask Brother Lu Haicheng to send a strong force to teach that kid a lesson." Tian Tong thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to follow him, don't attack, just find out where he's staying."

A wise man does not suffer a loss. Tian Tong was not foolish and would not go looking for a beating.
