Demon Dragon Mad God-Chapter 976 - 688

"Understood!"

Lin Feng gently nodded, but internally, he was indifferent. He wouldn’t be staying here for long and would soon find a way to leave.

"To become a citizen of our Divine Martial Kingdom, you must understand our laws. Otherwise, if you breach the law in the future, you’re bound to face a dead end!" City Lord Bai said slowly.

Lin Feng nodded once more.

Then, with a flip of his hand, City Lord Bai produced an iron plate and a thick book.

"This is an identity card and the Divine Martial Kingdom Law Record!"

City Lord Bai introduced, "The identity card is an essential item for all citizens of the Divine Martial Kingdom. Without it, you can hardly move a step. And this Law Record details the laws of our country in full."

"Thank you, City Lord!"

Lin Feng thought the other party would present him with these two items, so he expressed his gratitude.

However, City Lord Bai revealed a slight smile in his eyes and said, "These two items need to be purchased. The price is fifty million upper grade spirit stones!"

"Fifty million?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly. This person actually demanded fifty million upper grade spirit stones — wasn’t this blatant extortion?

An iron identity plate and a Divine Martial Kingdom Law Record, both worthless objects, yet they demanded fifty million upper grade spirit stones!

These two things wouldn’t even be worth one piece of an upper grade spirit stone!

Lin Feng initially thought this City Lord wasn’t bad, as a dignified City Lord personally issued him an identity card, but it turned out to be nothing like that!

"City Lord Bai, are you serious with fifty million upper grade spirit stones?" Lin Feng’s face darkened, and he laughed coldly.

"What? You think it’s expensive?"

City Lord Bai chuckled lightly and said, "This City Lord never cheats people. Every outsider is quoted the same price. If you think it’s too expensive, you may leave!" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Seeing this, Lin Feng was filled with doubt. Would the other party really be so generous as to let him leave easily?

As if reading Lin Feng’s doubts, City Lord Bai said, "This City Lord won’t stop you, but don’t blame me for not informing you. Without an identity card, you’ll find it hard to move in Divine Martial Kingdom, let alone in Yangwu City!"

The City Lord’s words were still relatively gentle, but the threat in them was unmistakable.

He was openly telling Lin Feng, if you don’t buy my identity card, don’t expect to survive in Yangwu City in the future.

However, Lin Feng wasn’t intimidated. Strong as he was, he feared no one.

"Sorry, I don’t have any spirit stones! Goodbye!"

With that, Lin Feng turned and walked out of the hall, striding swiftly towards the City Lord Mansion’s exit.

Without an identity card, he couldn’t move freely?

Adhere to the Divine Martial Kingdom’s laws?

Lin Feng scoffed at the thought. He wouldn’t be staying here long. Who needed an identity card!

With his strength, who in all of Yangwu City could restrain him!

Watching Lin Feng’s departing figure, the faint smile on City Lord Bai’s lips widened. He believed Lin Feng would return and obediently hand over the spirit stones when the time came.

In the Divine Martial Kingdom, spirit stones were extremely scarce, especially the higher-grade upper spirit stones.

But some outsiders were incredibly wealthy, and City Lord Bai always managed to extract large amounts of spirit stones from them.

City Lord Bai saw that Lin Feng was only at the True Xuan Realm Ninth Layer. He assumed Lin Feng’s spirit stones were limited, thus he asked for fifty million upper grade spirit stones. If Lin Feng were at the Martial King Realm, he would have asked for one hundred million upper grade spirit stones.

After all, the higher the cultivation of a martial artist, the wealthier they’ll be.

For City Lord Bai, fifty million upper grade spirit stones was an enormous fortune.

His entire City Lord Mansion wouldn’t earn fifty million upper grade spirit stones in several years.

But he never imagined that fifty million upper grade spirit stones were a trivial amount to Lin Feng.

Yet, Lin Feng wouldn’t allow even one to be extorted without a fight.

In fact, given City Lord Bai’s power and influence, he could have taken them by force, but the laws of the Divine Martial Kingdom strictly forbid robbing outsiders of their wealth.

This law was enacted personally by Emperor Divine Martial, even City Lord Bai dared not violate it.

Thus, in pursuit of spirit stones, City Lord Bai resorted to extortion.

Lin Feng strode away and soon stepped out of the City Lord Mansion.

Reaching the street outside, Lin Feng pondered briefly before wandering down the street, planning to find an inn to settle down.

He wanted to fully recover from his injuries and successfully merge the remaining spirit vortexes to then break through to the Martial King Realm.

Shortly after, Lin Feng found a rather grand inn.

"Shopkeeper, give me a high room!" Lin Feng said to the shopkeeper at the counter upon entering the inn.

"Please show your identity card!" The shopkeeper, a slightly chubby elder, smiled at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng’s brow furrowed upon hearing this. Even staying at an inn required an identity card?

"Without an identity card, can’t I stay?" Lin Feng asked in a deep voice.

"Of course, the country’s laws clearly stipulate that lodging requires identity verification!" The shopkeeper replied.

Lin Feng sighed and turned to leave the inn.

Damn it!

Wanting to stay somewhere required identity verification, yet this so-called Divine Martial Kingdom’s management was excessively strict!

Lin Feng didn’t want to cause trouble, he just wanted a place to cultivate peacefully, as his time was running out.

Without further thought, Lin Feng prepared to leave Yangwu City altogether. The world outside was vast enough for him to roam freely.

Reaching the city gate, Lin Feng was thoroughly enraged, for he was stopped yet again!

Damn it, even leaving the city required identity card verification!

"Without an identity card, you’re forbidden from leaving the city!" A squad of city gate soldiers blocked Lin Feng’s way, looking unfriendly.

"Get out of the way!" Lin Feng’s face turned icy, and he was completely losing patience.
