Chapter 1972: 1 Million Saint Pearls
"Palace Master, I know Ye Wutian is not simple, but are you really going to let him kill me?!"
Ye Wutian’s resolute attitude made Yuan Sha panic.
He kept sending voice transmissions to Yi Qian.
Yi Qian, extremely irritated, said, "I told you to wait for me! Now it’s a fine mess. If he really wants to kill you, what can I do? Stop him?!"
"You need to understand, I could intervene, but once I intervene, things will be completely different."
"Ye Wutian is definitely not my match, but behind Ye Wutian stands the Dream Saber Lord! With the Dream Saber Lord’s eccentric personality, who knows how he’ll handle this matter!"
Yuan Sha felt endless regret in his heart.
"Ye Wutian, our First Palace is willing to compensate for this matter."
Yi Qian spoke.
These words represented Yi Qian’s compromise.
This made everyone extremely surprised; they had never seen such a good-tempered Yi Qian.
"Alright, give me your Qiankun Bag, and we’ll call it even."
Ye Wutian looked as if he was easy to talk to.
Yi Qian’s expression changed.
As the Palace Master of the First Palace, his Qiankun Bag naturally contained numerous treasures.
Moreover, it was his lifetime’s savings; if he handed it over, it would be a tremendous loss, damaging both Primordial Energy and Qi God.
Yuan Sha transmitted, "Palace Master, just give him the Qiankun Bag. After this matter is over, I’ll do my best to repay you."
Yi Qian said, "Repay? You can’t repay what’s in my Qiankun Bag in your lifetime!"
In other words.
Yi Qian felt that Yuan Sha was not as important as the treasures in his Qiankun Bag.
Ye Wutian saw Yi Qian’s silence and immediately laughed, "It seems Palace Master Yi is reluctant, so there’s no need for you to be so troubled. I’ll make the decision for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Wutian suddenly raised his hand.
"Boom!"
In the sky, a terrifying Sword Energy condensed, making the entire space tremble, shaking the heavens and earth.
An extremely strong pressure bore down on Yuan Sha, more so pressing onto his heart, making Yuan Sha’s whole body incredibly heavy.
"Thud!"
Under this immense pressure.
The dignified Vice Palace Master of the First Palace, Yuan Sha, knelt before Qin Chen in front of many First Palace disciples.
The surroundings were silent.
Yuan Sha looked at Qin Chen with a face full of regret, "Qin Chen, I apologize for what happened that day in Dao Village, and I have seriously realized my mistake."
"Please, persuade your senior brother to stop, give me a chance, okay?!"
All it took was a sentence to express Yuan Sha’s bitterness and helplessness at this moment.
He was scared!
Yuan Sha was genuinely scared!
Moreover, Yi Qian’s willingness to protect him wasn’t strong, leaving Yuan Sha with no other choice.
All the dignity, status, and identity he once valued.
At this moment, he gave it all up.
In the face of life and death, he believed these were unimportant.
The First Palace disciples felt their worldview had been refreshed.
They never imagined that one day, they would see Yuan Sha kneel before someone, and the person he knelt to was a newcomer.
Yuan Sha was always strict and easily angered in the First Palace, and many First Palace disciples feared him.
Because of this, they felt an unprecedented shock at this moment.
As Yuan Sha’s proud disciple, Yue Lintao stood among the First Palace disciples, looking at Yuan Sha kneeling on the ground, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.
Qin Chen looked at Ye Wutian, "Senior brother, let’s let it go."
If it were up to Qin Chen, he might not let Yuan Sha go, but since Ye Wutian was acting on his behalf, he didn’t want Ye Wutian to bear the responsibility for him.
Ye Wutian turned to look at Qin Chen and nodded after a moment, "Since junior brother said to let it go, then we’ll listen to junior brother."
The terrifying Sword Energy above him instantly dissolved.
Only then did Yuan Sha feel relieved.
His entire body was soaked through without knowing when.
"However!"
Ye Wutian suddenly shifted his tone.
His aura, which had weakened, surged again, his sharp sword-like eyes scanning the whole scene.
"If I hear of anyone daring to bully my junior brother again, I, Ye Wutian... will not spare them!"
"No matter who it is!!!"
The shocking voice fell, echoing in the hearts of everyone present.
Qin Chen felt a deep warmth in his heart.
His choice to refuse the village chief was evidently correct.
Just for one Ye Wutian, Qin Chen felt it was worth it.
Everyone present did not dare to take his words lightly.
In the future, at Saber Saint Cliff, no one would dare oppose Qin Chen.
They didn’t want Yuan Sha’s situation to play out on them.
Most importantly, if such a thing happened again next time, Ye Wutian might not show mercy.
Ye Wutian looked at Yuan Sha, "You may escape death, but you can’t escape punishment."
"For this matter, compensate my junior brother with one million Saint Pearls, it’s not too much, is it?"
Yuan Sha’s face changed slightly.
Saint Pearls are the trading currency within Saber Saint Cliff and can purchase many cultivation resources there.
Even for a Vice Palace Master like him, one million Saint Pearls is an extremely terrifying amount.
After all, Ye Wutian once said that within Saber Saint Cliff, it takes one hundred million crystal coins to buy a single Saint Pearl.
One million Saint Pearls, how many Elemental Crystals would that require?
Absolutely unimaginable.
Many people at the scene were also astounded; one million Saint Pearls simply made their hearts race.
But Yuan Sha did not dare to say a word of refusal.
"No problem, but I can’t immediately produce that many Saint Pearls right now."
Yuan Sha gritted his teeth and said.
"I don’t care if you can bring it out or not, it’s not my concern. I want one million Saint Pearls right now, not one less."
"For each one missing, I’ll take one of your fingers."
Ye Wutian was expressionless, his usual playful demeanor seemed particularly ruthless and cold at the moment.
Yuan Sha stiffened; it wasn’t as simple as missing one or two Saint Pearls. Right now, he only had fifty thousand Saint Pearls on hand.
He still lacked fifty thousand.
If that’s the case, wouldn’t he still face certain death?
He looked pleadingly at Yi Qian, "Palace Master, lend me fifty thousand Saint Pearls."
He didn’t dare negotiate with Ye Wutian because Ye Wutian’s expression made him too afraid; he could only ask Yi Qian.
Yi Qian didn’t want to see Yuan Sha killed either; after all, Yuan Sha was his man, and if Yuan Sha was killed, it would be a disgrace to him.
Moreover, he didn’t want the situation to escalate further.
Immediately, without hesitation, he tossed fifty thousand Saint Pearls to Yuan Sha.
Once he gathered a million Saint Pearls, Yuan Sha handed them to Ye Wutian.
Ye Wutian accepted them and then, in front of everyone, passed the million Saint Pearls to Qin Chen, many eyes full of eager heat.
But when Ye Wutian’s cold gaze swept over, those eager eyes quickly extinguished, not daring to meet his gaze.
"Junior brother, let’s go."
Ye Wutian withdrew his sight, turned, and left with Qin Chen and the others.
