Chapter 2596 Prelude to War
Chapter 2596 Prelude to War
"This kid is even greedier than me."
Upon hearing the conditions Qin Fei offered, even Liang Xia couldn't help but twitch her brow.
It's important to understand that 100,000 medicinal herbs is an absolute fortune; any power would feel the pinch if they had to offer that.
How dare Qin Fei speak to Liu Min like that?
"One hundred thousand medicinal herbs?"
"Do you know what all these medicinal herbs represent?" Liu Min asked.
"What does it represent?" Qin Fei asked, adopting a humble and eager-to-learn expression.
"This means that a top-tier power can operate for two years, and it also means that it can cultivate a powerful assistant. You want to take 100,000 spiritual herbs from me without doing anything? Don't you think that's ridiculous?" Liu Min said with a sneer.
"I don't think so!" Qin Fei shook his head: "What I need right now is a spiritual elixir?"
"What I want is your Liu family's attitude. You won't even give me the elixir, so why should I believe you genuinely want to reconcile with me?"
"I certainly wouldn't believe something just based on casual conversation."
"Hehe, believe it or not, but there definitely isn't a single spiritual herb." Liu Min had just been tricked by Liang Xia into giving him ten thousand spiritual herbs, and now Qin Fei was making an outrageous demand. How could he possibly let Qin Fei have his way?
"Then what else is there to say?"
"Go back to where you came from," Qin Fei said to Liu Min.
“Young man, I hope you remember what you said to me today. It’s not that my Liu family wants to be your enemy, but that you deliberately want to stand against us,” Liu Min said slowly.
"I told you, the Liu family can do whatever they want. I don't trust you, and I don't trust the character of the Liu family," Qin Fei said.
"Yes, yes, yes, that's very well said!"
Suddenly, Liu Min raised his hand and clapped his hands several times. On the surface, he was smiling at Qin Fei, but in reality, the coldness in his eyes was already evident.
As the head of the Liu family, he hadn't been this angry in many, many years. He had already made it clear that he wanted to reconcile with Qin Fei, but he didn't expect that Qin Fei, this ant, would still refuse and even think that he had a conspiracy.
If that's the case, then why is he wasting his breath talking to Qin Fei?
As a top-tier power, does the Liu family really need to beg for mercy from Qin Fei?
Since Qin Fei is unwilling to reconcile, then he can only wait to die!
"I've delivered the message to you. How you choose is up to you."
"and many more."
Seeing that Liu Min seemed to be about to leave, Qin Fei quickly called out to him.
Upon hearing this, Liu Min subconsciously looked up at Qin Fei.
"Actually, you can negotiate the price with me. You don't have 100,000 spiritual herbs, but you should at least have 10,000, right?" Qin Fei said in a low voice.
Upon hearing the familiar phrase "ten thousand spiritual herbs," Liu Min almost couldn't suppress the urge to kill.
Liang Xia had already tricked him out of 10,000 spiritual herbs, and now Qin Fei was trying to use the same trick again.
Does he have "I'm easy to fool" written all over his face?
"I've said it before, I don't have a single spiritual herb right now. If you want to make peace, then make peace. But if you insist on going against the Liu family, then I can show you the methods of the Liu family!" Liu Min replied firmly.
"Then may I ask what your motivation is for wanting to reconcile?" Qin Fei asked.
"For example, are you afraid of my master, or perhaps afraid of my...potential?"
“I only believe that it’s better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. You’re a talented young man, and if possible, my Liu family would certainly be more willing to be your friend. But as it stands, you don’t seem to have that intention,” Liu Min said, shaking his head.
"Your Liu family targeted me before, and even almost killed me. Of course I don't believe you want to be friends with me. But since we've already come this far, I might as well be friends with your Liu family."
Qin Fei paused deliberately at this point, then tilted his head and said, "They say that mutual help is the mark of true friends. I'm a little short on cash right now and don't have any suitable spiritual herbs. Since you want to be my friend, could you lend me 100,000 spiritual herbs first?"
"When I obtain the miraculous medicine in the future, I will definitely do it immediately..."
boom!
Before Qin Fei could finish speaking, Liu Min instantly unleashed an astonishing killing intent.
He realized that Qin Fei had tricked him.
He's rambling on and on, but his ultimate goal is still to get the elixir.
Did the Liu family's miraculous medicine just fall from the sky?
Does Liu Min really look like a fool?
"Liu Min, what do you want to do?"
Liu Min desperately wanted to kill Qin Fei, but before he could make a move, Liang Xia appeared in front of Qin Fei and blocked all of Liu Min's killing intent.
"Liang Xia, I don't care if your Divine Martial Sect doesn't want revenge, but I must take this kid away today!" Liu Min said sternly.
“I personally captured him. You probably can’t take him away before you’ve squeezed every last drop of value out of him,” Liang Xia replied directly.
"It seems you value him more than your entire Divine Martial Sect."
"From this moment on, I give your Divine Martial Sect one hour. If you do not hand him over after one hour, I will lead my Liu family's iron army to massacre the Divine Martial Sect!" Liu Min issued a final ultimatum to the Divine Martial Sect.
After saying this, Liu Min didn't pursue the matter further and turned to leave the Divine Martial Sect's residence.
He came with good intentions, but he never expected to be tricked by Qin Fei, such an insignificant person. What surprised him even more was that Liang Xia was determined to protect Qin Fei, leaving him no chance to make a move.
Since the Divine Martial Sect is going to do this, the Liu family doesn't mind going to war with them!
He gave Liang Xia an hour to consider. On one side were ants, and on the other were the lives and safety of countless disciples of the Divine Martial Sect. He simply didn't believe that Liang Xia would dare to act recklessly.
"Start the timer now!"
"In one hour, the Liu family will massacre the Divine Martial Sect!"
"All members of the Liu family, assemble!"
A tremendous sound began to echo throughout the city, instantly causing a huge uproar.
No one expected that the Liu family and the Divine Martial Sect, two behemoths, would actually go to war. What happened between the two families?
"What's going on?"
Inside the Li family's residence, Li Yan and the rest of the Li family also heard Liu Min's voice. For a moment, they looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.
If these two behemoths were to go to war, the consequences would be catastrophic. The entire city would likely suffer heavy casualties, including everyone present who would be at risk of death.
After all, they currently lack the protection of top-tier experts, and if war breaks out, the aftershocks of the battle could kill them.
"Young Master, we probably need to hurry and get out of the city. We can't stay here any longer," Li Yan's protector said hastily.
He knew that with his current cultivation level, he was no match for the aftershocks of a higher-level battle, so for safety's sake, they definitely had to leave the city.
"Okay, pack everything and leave the city right away!"
Although Li Yan doesn't yet know why the Liu family and the Divine Martial Sect are at war, the Liu family's words indicate that these two behemoths may actually engage in a fierce battle.
For the safety of their people, they had no choice but to retreat.
