CHAPTER 563: CHAPTER 480: CRUSHING YOUR PRIDE_2

Chu Zhantian nodded and then looked at Lin Feng again, saying coldly, "Lin Feng, I’ll be waiting for you outside the inn. I hope you won’t turn into a hiding turtle!"

Having said that, Chu Zhantian turned and walked away. He wasn’t worried about Lin Feng cooping up inside; unless Lin Feng planned to stay permanently at the Divine Dragon Inn, which seemed unlikely given the expensive rates of even the lowest-grade rooms costing one million Low Grade Spirit Stones per night. Who could afford to keep that up indefinitely!

"Wait!"

At that moment, the shopkeeper spoke up again, casting a cold look at Chu Zhantian, "For the damage to the chairs and other items, you will compensate tenfold!"

"Tenfold compensation?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhantian’s face darkened as he angrily said, "Shopkeeper, aren’t you being too greedy? Don’t you know that I am a disciple of the Azure Dragon Sacred Sect?"

The shopkeeper, emotionless, coldly said, "It makes no difference who it is, anyone daring to cause trouble in the Divine Dragon Inn will be treated the same. Young man, you better not force me to take action!"

The shopkeeper was very firm. He didn’t demand compensation from Lin Feng because he witnessed the entire incident and knew Lin Feng was merely a normal guest at the inn while Chu Zhantian and his group were the instigators. Being a businessman in charge of the Divine Dragon Inn, he still maintained a sense of fairness.

Chu Zhantian’s face turned ashen, and gritting his teeth, he asked, "How many Spirit Stones in total do I have to compensate?"

"Ten thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones, or ten million Low Grade Spirit Stones," the shopkeeper stated plainly.

"What?"

Chu Zhantian was stunned, then infuriated, "Are you robbing me? You’re asking for ten million Low Grade Spirit Stones for a few broken chairs?"

Chu Zhantian was outraged. His mood had already been foul recently, and now the shopkeeper of the Divine Dragon Inn was demanding an exorbitant price which only fed his fury!

The main issue was that he was literally broke; having been robbed of his Storage Ring by Lin Feng during their last encounter at the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace, he was left penniless.

After recovering from his injuries, he had only managed to gather a few million Low Grade Spirit Stones over time, how could he possibly afford ten million...

Chu Zhantian truly lost his temper, never expecting even the shopkeeper of the Divine Dragon Inn to bully him.

"All these tables and chairs are made from top-quality spirit wood ’Silver Pear Tree’. You should be well aware of the prices of Silver Pear Tree. Ten million Low Grade Spirit Stones is already considering the face of a disciple of the Azure Dragon Sacred Sect!"

The shopkeeper’s expression remained cold, completely disregarding Chu Zhantian’s furious appearance, continuing, "Compensate quickly, or don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

"You...!"

Chu Zhantian wanted to explode but reason told him to endure, forcibly suppressing the rage in his heart. Chu Zhantian glanced at the shattered tables and chairs, their quality indeed seemed to be made of high-grade spirit wood.

After some thought, Chu Zhantian said with a grim face, "Five million Low Grade Spirit Stones is all I have. I hope you can give me some more consideration!"

Chu Zhantian had made up his mind to endure for the moment, thinking he could pin the cost on Lin Feng anyway since he was bound to rob Lin Feng empty.

Lin Feng had taken his Storage Ring, so naturally, he intended to recover his losses with interest.

"Ten million is my bottom line!" the shopkeeper shook his head slightly, not budging at all.

Chu Zhantian frowned, surprised at how unyielding the shopkeeper was.

"Shopkeeper, here are ten thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones!"

Just as Chu Zhantian was considering his options, a beautiful young woman in green robes stepped forward from behind him and handed a Storage Bag to the shopkeeper.

"Junior Sister Ni!" Chu Zhantian was stunned, his expression slightly awkward - the green-robed woman was indeed one of his junior sisters.

"Senior Brother Chu, don’t be polite. You’re short on funds right now, so your junior sister will cover for you!"

The green-robed woman looked earnestly at Chu Zhantian. Having long harbored affection for the talented Chu Zhantian, she didn’t miss the chance to show her support.

"Junior Sister Ni! Thank you!"

Chu Zhantian inhaled deeply and said, "Ten million Low Grade Spirit Stones, I will repay you later!"

Having said that, Chu Zhantian turned and looked at the still seated Lin Feng, shouting coldly, "I’ll be waiting outside!"

With those words, Chu Zhantian strode outside.

The fellow disciples of Chu Zhantian all cast cold glances at Lin Feng as they followed him out.

Lin Feng, feeling helpless, touched his chin. He couldn’t even eat a meal in peace without someone looking for trouble.

However, he was in the Dragon Region and Heavenly Dragon City seemed to be the territory of the Azure Dragon Sacred Sect, so he couldn’t act recklessly.

Lin Feng pondered internally about whether to go out or not. He was not afraid of Chu Zhantian and his group. However, killing them might prevent him from leaving Heavenly Dragon City or even the Dragon Region!

"Lin Feng, don’t go out. Even though you can defeat these people, we are in their domain. It’s better to endure it for now!"

Wu Sheng looked slightly solemn and spoke in a serious tone, "Let’s stay here for a few days and look for an opportunity to leave!"

Lin Feng nodded slightly. Although his own strength was enough to easily crush Chu Zhantian and his cohort, the Dragon Region was filled with countless powerhouses. If their side just called over a high-rank Heavenly Martial Master or higher as backup, the trouble would escalate!

"I’m afraid it’s unavoidable," Hong Qingxuan shook her head helplessly and softly said.

"Why?" Both Lin Feng and Wu Sheng looked puzzled.

With a slight frown, Hong Qingxuan explained, "To return to Xuan Domain from Dragon Region, we need to visit the Azure Dragon Sacred Sect."

"To the Azure Dragon Sacred Sect?"

Lin Feng’s brow furrowed, puzzled, "Are there no Cross-Domain Teleportation Arrays under other powers in the Dragon Region?"
