School flower's personal master

Chapter 12295

If they could really make a move at will, how could the arrogant Tianjun families possibly take the initiative to negotiate peace with others?

Not to mention offering to voluntarily reduce prices.

Liu Fengshan said quietly, "Lin Yi, you'd better think this through. Throughout history, no one who has been an enemy of the Tianjun family has ever had a good ending."

"No need for Young Master Liu to worry, I have thought it through very clearly."

Lin Yi's lips curled up: "However, Young Master Liu, you should think about what the Tianjun family will think of you if you go back like this."

Liu Fengshan's eyes flashed: "What do you mean?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Let me analyze it for you. It's not a good time for the Tianjun Family to get involved personally right now, otherwise you wouldn't be here today."

"It seems that Yuan Chu has told you quite a bit about my Tianjun."

Liu Fengshan snorted but did not refute.

After all, there's no point in trying to refute it.

Lin Yi continued, "If the Tianjun aristocratic family forces their way in and can crush me directly, that would be fine. But if they can't crush me in a short time and we get into a stalemate, or even suffer some in silence."

After a pause, Lin Yi chuckled and asked, "Young Master Liu, what do you think the Tianjun aristocratic family will think of you then?"

These few simple words made Liu Fengshan break out in a cold sweat.

Occupying the position of the Grand Administrator of Tianjun, the Liu family's status in Tianjun is actually quite similar to that of Lin Yi.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

If you don't reveal any flaws, that's fine. But once you do, all sorts of open and covert attacks will inevitably come swarming in.

At that time, it might not shake the entire Liu family, but Liu Fengshan would definitely not be any better off.

The Yuan family serves as a cautionary tale.

Because of the mishap in Nanjun last time, the Yuan family's status in Tianjun has been greatly damaged. Otherwise, Liu Fengshan would not have jumped out to compete with Yuan Chu for the limelight.

This time, however, it was Liu Fengshan's turn to be roasted over the fire.

After a moment of contemplation, Liu Fengshan said in a deep voice, "No matter what, we can forget about getting 500,000 coins a year. No one can extort the Tianjun family like this. There has never been one before, and there will never be one in the future!"

Lin Yi laughed: "Are you trying to bargain with me here?"

Liu Fengshan's face remained expressionless, and he did not utter a word.

Lin Yi casually said, "You don't need to worry about it. As long as you report my request, they will naturally agree. There's no need for you to make things difficult."

"What a loud tone!"

Liu Fengshan outwardly scoffed, but inwardly he still felt a degree of agreement.

Lin Yi's rise to the position of governor of three prefectures has made him a figure of immense value in the eyes of the powerful families of Tianjun.

Especially at this critical juncture, if the Tianjun aristocratic family were to forcibly intervene, the cost would be far too high and the risk far too great.

In comparison, giving Lin Yi 500,000 Dao resources might seem like extortion, but it's actually a lower-cost option.

Lin Yi's offer was not just empty talk; it was clearly the result of careful calculation.

It was right on the edge of the Tianjun family's bottom line.

Otherwise, if he had offered a million dollars a year, Liu Fengshan would have turned around and left without saying a word.

However, while the Tianjun family might reluctantly agree to Lin Yi's offer, Liu Fengshan would be in deep trouble when he returned home.

It's easy to guess what sarcastic remarks Yuan Chu and his gang will make then.

Liu Fengshan's eyes narrowed: "If you want 500,000 Dao, then show me the ability to do 500,000 Dao. If you think you can just talk your way out of nothing, then I can only say that you're overthinking it."

Lin Yi laughed and said, "Young Master Liu, do you want to have a competition with me? Sure, I'll play along. It'll be a good opportunity to see what kind of second-generation Tianjun is made of."

"..."

Seeing him get up to leave the field, Liu Fengshan's eyelids twitched, and he quickly said, "I never said I would fight you."

Lin Yi looked at him in surprise: "Is Young Master Liu afraid?"

Liu Fengshan sneered: "For someone in a position of power to resort to violence at the drop of a hat is a bad habit of the common folk and will never be respectable."

"How about this, we each send one of our men, and we'll decide the winner in one round."

"Let's wager 500,000 Dao resources per year. If I lose, you get 500,000."

"But if I win, the condition remains the same: 100,000 questions per year."

Everyone present turned their heads in surprise upon hearing this.

In their view, this offer was incredibly generous; even if they lost, they could still receive 100,000 yuan every year for free.

All I can say is that Lin Yi is truly lucky!

Lin Yi smiled slightly: "It's a deal."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chai Xun, who was standing next to him, immediately stood up.

I only brought him along this time, so I naturally took the lead.

Besides, he had been holding back his anger ever since he walked in, and he had long disliked these people.

Seeing this, Liu Fengshan chuckled and said, "Old Feng, play along with him."

An old servant carrying a sword silently walked out from behind him.

Everyone looked at each other.

This person was able to come out with Liu Fengshan, so he must not be an ordinary person. Moreover, true masters are always unassuming, and the more ordinary-looking someone is, the less they should be underestimated.

Everyone naturally understands this basic principle.

The problem is, aren't you just too unremarkable in appearance?

Just based on the image of the old servant carrying a sword, at least half of the people present would dare to step forward.

The key issue is that the aura he exudes is only moderately strong, at best just average.

In contrast, Chai Xun...

Everyone had clearly seen what happened at the main gate earlier.

Even if they didn't know about the major events that had recently occurred in Zhongjun, or the inside story, they could at least tell that this Chai Xun was definitely a true master.

Starting with top-tier combat power!

The crowd spontaneously made way, leaving only Chai Xun and the old servant with the sword facing each other in the middle of the room.

Chai Xun frowned and looked at Liu Fengshan: "Did you send a useless old man to stage an accident? You're not going to deny it after the fight is over, are you?"

Liu Fengshan ignored him.

No matter how strong Chai Xun's aura was, in his eyes, he was ultimately just a servant.

Liu Fengshan glanced at Lin Yi: "Lin Yi, your ability to manage your subordinates as the chief administrator of the three prefectures seems to be not very good. You can't even distinguish between the basic hierarchy of people. If you have the opportunity to come to Tianjun in the future, I will teach you."

Lin Yi smiled enigmatically: "I didn't realize that Young Master Liu was such a kind-hearted person."

Chai Xun spat in the arena: "What a damn show-off."

As he spoke, his aura suddenly exploded with full force, his spearhead aimed directly at Liu Fengshan.

Everyone in the room felt their eyelids twitch uncontrollably.

They couldn't feel it so clearly from the distance at the main gate.

Those who were there in person immediately turned pale, and those with slightly weaker strength collapsed to the ground, trembling.

They were just caught in the crossfire of nepotism.

Liu Fengshan was the first to be hit, but he remained unmoved and continued drinking.

They completely disregarded the impact of this aura.

At the critical moment, the old servant carrying the sword suddenly stood in front of him, blocking all the impact of the aura.

A slender figure, less than 1.6 meters tall, stood blocking the way like a towering mountain. (End of Chapter)
