Chapter 491

His cold words were still echoing, but everyone was petrified.

What was going on?

The floor had been destroyed, and he wanted them to pay ten times the compensation. He even warned them that if there was a next time, they would be killed without mercy.

Everyone's eyes widened, unable to say a word. If it weren't for the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion's people standing in front of the four young masters, they definitely would have thought they had heard wrong.

But clearly, that wasn't the case.

The three young masters who had just fainted, as well as the pig-faced Ning Yun, were all dumbfounded. Why was it that the one who had beaten them was fine, but the one who had been beaten had to pay ten times the compensation?

"Sir, it's the barbarian dog. It's him." Lu Guan was still in a daze. He shook his head and pointed at Zi Chen. Suddenly, he realized he was pointing at a broken finger, so he changed to another one. But before he could finish, he met the Primal Core expert's sharp gaze.

"Do you need me to repeat myself?" asked the Primal Core expert coldly, killing intent surging from his body.

The four of them trembled and didn't dare speak again.

At this moment, as the one who had beaten them, Zi Chen stepped forward. In everyone's eyes, this person would definitely be severely punished. Since the one who had been beaten had to pay ten times the compensation, then the one who had beaten them would have to be executed. Furthermore, this was the market's rule.

But as Zi Chen stepped forward, the Primal Core expert took the initiative to open a path for Zi Chen to face the four young masters.

"Remember, I'm called Tyrant Barbarian."

Zi Chen swept his gaze over the four, his expression cold for the first time. "It's best not to call barbarians dogs, because in my eyes, you're not even as good as barbarians."

"Not even as good as barbarians."

Hearing these words, the four of them felt a buzzing sound in their heads and almost fainted. Their faces were pale. They had called the barbarians dogs, but now they had been beaten by the barbarians. In other words, they were worse than dogs.

They represented the four powers, and they were the direct descendants of the four powers. If they were worse than dogs, then their own clansmen weren't better than dogs either.

After saying this, Zi Chen no longer paid any attention to the four of them. His cold gaze swept across the surroundings as he coldly said, "Don't underestimate the barbarians. The barbarian lands once made the entire Southern region tremble. In the future, the barbarian lands will naturally rise."

"If all barbarians are dogs, then what are all of you inferior to me, a barbarian?"

Zi Chen's words were resounding and powerful. Ten thousand years ago, the barbarian lands were still the Everlasting Sect's territory. The Everlasting Sect was the true ruler of the Southern Region, and they had once caused the entire Southern Region to tremble.

Zi Chen swept his gaze around, and everyone subconsciously lowered their heads. No one dared to meet Zi Chen's intimidating gaze.

Zi Chen was a barbarian, but he could beat up a young master of a major power as easily as he could beat a chicken. If someone with such strength could be called a dog, then wouldn't they be worse than dogs?

"Remember, my name is Zi Chen. Barbarian Zi Chen. Of course, you can also call me Tyrant Barbarian."

After saying this, Zi Chen strode away. Wherever he passed, the crowd subconsciously made a path for him.

Today, Zi Chen's name would definitely spread throughout the Bedlam Lands. And today, the barbarian, who was crowned as a weak laughingstock, would truly be viewed in a new light.

"That was close. Fortunately, we were a step too late. He's simply a jinx."

Back when Zi Chen had robbed eight major powers, only four of them had come looking for trouble. It wasn't that the other four hadn't come, but that they had been a step too late. At this moment, looking at Zi Chen's back, they only felt a burst of joy in their hearts.

Zi Chen had become the first person in the city to break the rules and not receive any punishment. He didn't even receive the simplest of criticism.

For daring to make a move in the city without receiving any punishment, for a time, everyone was guessing Zi Chen's identity.

On that day, when the four young masters were taken back, the Dan Yuan experts of the four major powers were furious. It was said that they had smashed several desks and roared that the Shangguan Family had gone too far.

But in less than half a day, layers upon layers of compensation had been delivered to the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion. Many yuan stones were shining brightly.

The four major powers lowered their stance and repeatedly apologized. They also promised that the same thing wouldn't happen again.

Shangguan Chuanming's anger was finally appeased.

This was the rule of the Bedlam Lands. Whoever had the bigger fist was right.

"When you were in the land of the savages, you were hunted down almost every day. You should only have memories of being hunted down and running for your life. Why do you want to protect the land of the savages?" Monk Shang asked the question in his heart as he followed Zi Chen out.

"I don't know. At that time, I was just hot-headed." Zi Chen smiled and scratched his head.

"Hot-Headed? Zi Chen always had a calm expression when he killed people. How could you be hot-headed?" Monk sneered.

"Well, I can only say that I'm nostalgic. Now that I think about it, I had many friends and confidantes in the barbarian lands. Along the way, I was able to grow so fast because of those people who hunted me endlessly. Moreover, they suffered heavy losses. There was no need to bear grudges."

"You have a good attitude." The monk walked forward.

As soon as Monk left, a cold light flashed in Zi Chen's eyes. He didn't completely ignore what he had experienced in the barbarian lands. At least, he had always engraved the hatred of the extermination of his sect in his heart.

"I hope you're still alive." Zi Chen's eyes flashed with hatred.

With nothing to do, Zi Chen and Monk began to walk around the city. Besides waiting for the auction to start, they also planned to see if there was anything they needed in other shops.

Now that they were rich, they could buy a lot of things.

"Monk, don't you want to buy an elixir weapon? The elixir weapons here are much better than yours in terms of quality and power," Zi Chen said.

The elixir weapons they obtained in the outer regions were all refined by cultivators who had just broken through to the Inner Core realm. The quality was not high, far from being comparable to the elixir weapons here. Of course, the price of the elixir weapons here definitely matched the quality.

"My combat strength is not above the weapons." Monk shook his head.

During this period, the two of them went from shop to shop to look for essence liquid. This was a good thing that was very useful for cultivation. The more the better. Moreover, with their current wealth, they could definitely buy a lot of low-quality essence liquid.

But in the city, the quantity of essence liquid was not much. Occasionally, there would be some, but the price was outrageous. The two of them had no choice but to buy it at a high price.

Behind the two of them, Wild Wolf and the others were also following in batches. After seeing the things the two of them bought, they were all shocked.

"Damn it, how many essence stones do they have?"

"The price of a bottle of essence liquid is even more expensive than Inner Core realm. They didn't even bat an eyelid and bought it directly."

The group of Inner Core realm experts following them were all envious and jealous. Their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. The other party was just too rich.

Soon, Zi Chen and Tyrant discovered a problem. That was because no matter where the two of them went, there would be countless gazes staring at them. Those gazes were not the kind of gazes of worship and fear. Instead, they were green and seemed more like greed.

"It's them. They have more than ten million essence stones."

"Yes, and all of them are high grade essence stones."

"One token for one million and five hundred thousand. Eight of them is twelve million. No wonder they bought several shops' worth of essence liquid at such a high price. They didn't even frown."

When Zi Chen and Monk heard the whispers, they frowned slightly. Obviously, the news of the token sale had been spread by someone, but there were many false reports.

At this moment, the eyes of the crowd were greedy and naked. They couldn't wait to rob the two of them.

With ten million high grade essence stones, there was no one who wouldn't be moved. This was a real fortune. Once they got it, their future cultivation path would be smooth.

"Oh my god, they have ten million high grade essence stones." Even Wolf and the others were shocked when they heard the news.

As soon as the news spread, they, who had already made up their mind to rob the two of them, became even more determined.

"How much is this thing?" Zi Chen looked at an item and asked.

"Two thousand high grade essence stones."

"What? You clearly wrote one thousand. How did it become two thousand?" Zi Chen stared.

"Oh, sorry, the price just increased."

This was the effect of the news. Now, everyone thought the two of them were fat sheep, and wanted to kill them.

"Hey, tycoon, you're quite famous now." A clear and familiar voice sounded from behind Zi Chen.

Zi Chen was startled, and a hint of joy appeared on his face. He turned his head, but when he saw a tall woman, the joy on his face disappeared.

"Zi Chen, you don't have to be so snobbish. You don't see sister and your face changes." A dissatisfied voice sounded. Shangguan Bing stepped forward happily.

"Why are you alone? Where's Yue 'er?" Zi Chen asked.

"Sister is a little princess now. Naturally, she can't come out. I came out alone to relax. What, are you disappointed?" Shangguan Bing looked at Zi Chen with a playful smile.

"Of course not." Zi Chen smiled awkwardly.

But such a deliberate expression didn't need to be used on Shangguan Bing. She acted as if they were close friends and said, "You're famous now in the market. You beat people here, and they didn't punish you."

"If you want, you can become famous in minutes," Zi Chen said.

"But I'm not as good as you. Now, the streets and alleys are all talking about you. And your portraits are everywhere. I just came here and I already heard about you."

"Aren't you in Chaos City? What are you doing here?"

"The Chaos Battlefield is about to open. I'm going there. I want to take this opportunity to relax."

Zi Chen and Shangguan Bing talked. The monk chose to remain silent. After that, the two of them went to a few more shops. But when they saw the two of them, the prices of all the items had increased by a whole fold.

"Hehe, it seems like it's impossible to buy anything. We can only wait for the auction."

"You're a tycoon. Of course, you have to go to the auction." Shangguan Bing giggled.

The three of them didn't go around anymore. Instead, they returned to the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion. They didn't expect Shangguan Feixiong to come as well. Zi Chen went up to greet him, and then asked about Yue 'er.

Yue 'er was fine. Shangguan Feixiong signaled him not to worry.

During these few days, Zi Chen and the monk didn't go out. They were focused on waiting for the auction to open. He didn't go out of the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion, so there was no trouble.
