Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son-Chapter 862: Beast Clans’ Leaders

Drap... Drap... Drap...

"Move!"

"Don't block the way!"

The people in the market district moved aside; they saw the group of people from the dragon clan running in a hurry. Furthermore, all of them were wearing warrior robes and were fully armed, which confused the onlookers.

They saw a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman leisurely walking behind the people, and they recognized the two as the head guards of the dragon clan, Long Jishan and Long Yingwu.

As they saw the group from the dragon clan, especially Long Jishan and Long Yingwu, the people began to whisper and question their purpose in bringing so many warriors with them.

A while later, people from the dragon clan lined up on two sides in front of a herb shop, making the people in the area even more curious about their purpose.

"Hahaha!" A loud laugh broke out from inside the herb shop, startling everyone present. Zhang Fei [5] led Feng Wushen out from inside, with Ning Zhuan'er hiding behind the male phoenix. "I had guessed that one of the two clans would come to me, but I didn't expect that your dragon clan would send so many people to welcome me."

The onlookers immediately recognized Feng Wushen and Ning Zhuan'er from their attire, but they could not recognize Zhang Fei [5]. They inwardly wondered when they realized that his cultivation was too low to face the people from the dragon clan, who had all reached the Seven Divine Realm. Not to mention, Long Jishan and Long Yingwu are elders of the dragon clan.

"Are you Zhang Fei [5]?" Long Jishan asked.

"I am." Zhang Fei [5] calmly replied. "What do you guys want from me?"

Long Jishan informed him directly. "Follow us to meet our patriarch."

"I refuse." Zhang Fei [5]'s refusal caused people to gasp. "I still have many other matters, so I don't have time for your patriarch."

"You—"

"If you think you can use force on me, you should reconsider." Zhang Fei [5] immediately unleashed his killing intent to the maximum, forcing the guards of the dragon clan to fall to their knees. Even Long Jishan and Long Yingwu subconsciously took a few steps back, and the trembling of their bodies was clearly visible to the eyes of the audience. "I came to this realm not to look for trouble, but you came to pressure me. If you want to fight with me, I will fulfill your wishes."

Swoosh... Swoosh... Swoosh...

In a few moments, ten people appeared in the sky above them, and they came after they sensed Zhang Fei [5]'s killing intent, two of whom were Feng Qingmeng and Zhu Lingyao. Their arrival forced the onlookers to flee from the scene, but many of them were watching the situation from a distance.

Zhang Fei [5] did not falter or withdraw his killing intent in the presence of the ten patriarchs and matriarchs of the ten beast clans. He crossed his hands behind his waist, looked at them one by one, and listened to Mei report their strength. All of them had reached the 5-Moon Divine Ascendant Realm, except for Zhu Lingyao, who had reached the 1-Moon Divine Ascension Realm.

"Brother Wushen, please take Zhuan'er away and bring her to the phoenix clan." Feng Wushen nodded and took Ning Zhuan'er away with him directly. Zhang Fei [5] then spoke to them. "I was aware that my actions would provoke you guys, but I did this to protect myself. I was enjoying my time with my two friends, but these people from the dragon clan suddenly came to me, and they wanted to use force on me."

"Did you order them to force this kid, Long Aotian?" Feng Qingmeng asked the patriarch of the dragon clan.

"No." Long Aotian immediately denied it. "I've received reports about this kid, but I haven't made any decisions about him, and I think Long Qichao sent them to him."

"I don't care who among you sent these people, but I don't like it when people try to pressure me, especially when there's nothing wrong between us." Long Aotian and the others frowned when they heard that, and the dragon clan's patriarch tried to dispel Zhang Fei [5]'s killing intent but ended up failing. "Old man, I'm not as weak as you think, and you can go down if you want to free them."

"Hahaha." One of them suddenly burst out laughing. "Old Long, this kid has big guts, and his cultivation does not show his true strength, especially since his killing intent is stronger than old generations like us."

"I agree with Dai Baihu." An old man with a black shell on his back joined in. "Despite this kid's low cultivation, I can't accurately assess his true strength because of his overwhelming killing intent."

A golden-haired woman wearing a golden dress suddenly slid down, landing before Zhang Fei [5]. She propped her chin and looked at him with a faint smile. "I like you, kid. You're still young, and your cultivation is still in the ten mortal realms, but you can stand tall in our presence. Would you like to join my Golden Crow clan?"

"Hey, kid! Don't join her, and you can join my white tiger clan instead." Dai Baihu said those words as he landed on the ground.

The other patriarchs and matriarchs also followed the two, except for Long Aotian, the patriarch of the dragon clan. All of them also invited Zhang Fei [5] to join their beast clans, except for Feng Qingmeng, as he already had a close relationship with the phoenix clan.

Zhu Lingyao just stood there without saying anything, but her eyes moved up and down as she watched Zhang Fei [5] closely, and no one knew what was on her mind.

"I apologize, but I must decline your offer, seniors." Zhang Fei [5] respectfully replied, especially since they didn't look for trouble with him.

"Ahh!" The woman let out a soft cry while pressing her chest. "Your rejection broke my heart, kid. Don't you want to consider my offer first?"

Zhang Fei [5] shook his head slightly. "I prefer a free and unfettered life, so I will not join anyone. Furthermore, I wouldn't have come here if someone hadn't invited me, as this realm is too far from the Xianjin Realm."

"Oh?" The woman was slightly surprised. "Who invited you to come to this realm? By the way, I am Yan Jinwu, the matriarch of the Golden Crow Clan."

"Zhuang Qiaoming from the lower land invited him to our realm." Yan Jinwu and the others turned to Feng Qingmeng, who immediately explained to them Zhang Fei [5]'s reasons for coming to their realm. "Zhu Weiqing, Feng Shanxi, and I met Long Qichao earlier to discuss this matter. He refused to make an exception for him, but I didn't expect that he would send these guys to force him."

After hearing all that, they turned to Long Aotian, who finally decided to descend from the sky. "Kid, I'm down now, so please take back your killing intent from them."

"Sure."

"Return to our clan." Long Aotian ordered the people from his clan as soon as Zhang Fei [5] withdrew his killing intent, and they hurriedly fled from there. "How about we discuss this matter in my dragon clan?"

"No." Zhang Fei [5] refused immediately. "If you want to discuss this matter, we can do it in the Phoenix Clan."

Feng Qingmeng smiled faintly as they looked at her. "You guys don't have to look at me like that, especially since I didn't say anything. This kid has a close relationship with my princess, and my empress also likes him."

Yan Jinwu suddenly embraced Zhang Fei [5]'s shoulders. "Are you thinking of wooing the Phoenix Princess, kid?"

"Which man wouldn't fall in love with Feng Yao, Senior?" Zhang Fei [5] responded with a confident smile.

"Haha." Yan Jinwu laughed upon hearing that. "Your taste in women is too high; do you know that? Among all the young generations of our beast races, Feng Yao stands out as the most exceptional. We believe that she will surpass all the beasts in the universe in the future, and she will be our leader at that time."

Zhang Fei [5] chose not to comment on that, especially since they only knew Feng Yao according to what she wanted, and they didn't know the true her. "Let's go to the Phoenix Clan, and we'll talk there."

A while later, they had gathered in the main hall of the Phoenix Clan, and Zhang Fei [5] directly spoke to them. "All of you are mythical beasts, and you guys have more advantages than other races. Why do you have to maintain such rules? Are you guys afraid that those people will surpass your beast races? Don't you have confidence in your abilities? I know the rules in this realm have been around for a long time, but they should be able to be changed for the benefit of many people, including your younger generations, right?"

"What do you know about us beast races, kid? You are an ordinary human, so you don't know how difficult it is for us beast races to cultivate." The others agreed with Dai Baihu.

"Do you guys really think that I am an ordinary human?" They frowned at Zhang Fei [5], except for Feng Qingmeng and Zhu Lingyao. Their expressions changed to surprise as soon as he turned into his complete fox with six tails. "Presumably, your beast instincts have already dulled, and you didn't recognize my beast aura when I was in my human form."

The matriarch of the golden fox race, Huli Haohao, immediately approached Zhang Fei [5]. She walked around him and took a close look at his fox form.

"Senior, your guess is correct that I am a heavenly fox." Zhang Fei [5]'s revelation shocked Huli Haohao and the others, especially since the fox race had always lived in their circles and did not want to blend in with the other beast races, let alone help humans. He then transformed back into his human form and posed a question. "Since you've seen my beast form, you don't need to doubt my knowledge of the beast races, right? I understand how difficult it is for beasts to cultivate, but we still have many advantages over other races. Unlike you guys, I'm not afraid that they will rival or even surpass me, and I just need to work harder to prevent that."

"Why do your views conflict with those of your ancestors? Aren't you afraid they will punish you?" Huli Haohao asked him.

"Tian Baitian and Tian Baixing are not my ancestors, but I would rather not discuss it with you." Zhang Fei [5]'s answer confused them. "Let's get to the point. I came to this realm at Zhuang Qiaoming's invitation, but I also have my own goals. If you allow me to open a shop on the lower land, I will also open one on this island. This way, your beast races will get the same resources as them, so you shouldn't have to be afraid of them surpassing you."

Huli Haohao and the others seemed to be thinking about it seriously, but Long Aotian was different from them, and he immediately put forward a condition to Zhang Fei [5]. "I don't mind if you want to open your shops in both places, but my dragon clan will control both of them, and we will split the profits, 50:50."

Feng Qingmeng and Zhu Lingyao massaged their foreheads, and the others sharply glared at Long Aotian due to his greed.

"Haha." Zhang Fei [5] laughed mockingly in response. "You have the audacity to ask for such a thing, huh, old man? You should be ashamed of yourself! You are so old, but you are so greedy!"

"How dare you!" Long Aotian wanted to stand up from his seat, but Ma Kuangyu immediately moved to press him down, causing his chair to shatter and him to fall to the floor. "Guah."

The incident caused the room to fall into complete silence, and people's gazes kept shifting between Zhang Fei [5] and Long Aotian, trying to understand what exactly was happening between them. 'What has this kid done? How can he pressure Old Long like this?'

'Released this old man, Old Ma.' The people's gaze suddenly fell on the pills in Zhang Fei's hands, and everyone, including Long Aotian, wanted to get them because of their high quality. "I have seen the various types and grades of pills in your dragon clan's store, and most of them are of lower quality. There are indeed some superior-grade pills there, but their small number proves that Long Qichao has difficulty concocting them, let alone concocting five pills in one furnace. Unlike him, I have successfully concocted five superior-grade pills in one furnace, as witnessed by Senior Qingmeng. Therefore, you guys don't need to doubt my ability in alchemy, and my ability is superior compared to his."

Zhu Lingyao smiled faintly as she listened to Zhang Fei [5], especially since he only attacked Long Aotian and his dragon clan. 'This kid is a vengeful man!'

"Is that true, Qingmeng?" The patriarch of the Black Tortoise Clan, Wang Guzhe, asked.

Feng Qingmeng let out a soft sigh before sharing her memories with them, except for Zhu Lingyao, especially since she had watched them. "Watch them for yourselves."

After they witnessed Zhang Fei [5]'s ability to concoct superior-grade pills in person, none of them doubted him anymore. "Are you really going to sell your pills in this realm, kid?"

"Yes." Zhang Fei [5] nodded to the patriarch of the Qilin Clan, Lei Qilin. "However, I will never sell my pills in this realm as long as the mighty Patriarch Long wants 50% of the proceeds of my hard work, and I will only sell them in other realms that are profitable for me, such as in the Xianjin Realm and the Void Heaven Realm."

Long Aotian's expression was really ugly, but they didn't pay him any attention. The patriarch of the Kun Peng Clan, Yuwen Xingzuan, directly asked Zhang Fei [5]. "What kind of pills do you have, kid? What if I buy them from you directly?"

"It's not a problem if you want to buy them from me directly, Senior." Zhang Fei [5] then placed two bottles of pills on the table. "One bottle contains five basic pills, and the price of one set is ten million blue jewels. You may feel that their price is too expensive, but I dare to guarantee that you will be satisfied with their effects. The second bottle is the Yang Purifying Pill, and the Yang Qi produced by the body will be two times stronger and purer, allowing a male cultivator to cultivate faster. You can buy it for one million blue jewels, the same price as in the Xianjin Realm. I have other pills, but I won't take them out until I can open my shop here."

"What if the effects of your pills are not as you described?" Dai Baihu asked.

Zhang Fei [5] smiled and confidently answered him. "Senior, I will return your jewels double if their effects are not as I said."

"Let me try them first." Dai Baihu immediately placed a bag containing eleven million blue jewels on the table before taking the pills. He then sat on the floor and started swallowing the pills one by one according to Zhang Fei [5]'s instructions, and the others waited while surrounding him, especially since they wanted to know their true effects.

Unlike them, Zhang Fei [5] sat leisurely on the chair with a broad smile on his face, especially since he needed many jewels to pay Ji Changlan. As long as he could convince the people in front of him, he could reap many benefits from them. 'After I get those materials from Old Ji, I will start forging earth-grade equipment, and I will immediately continue forging heaven-grade equipment if I succeed in forging a perfect one.'
