Chapter 480: The Pavilion Master Displays His Power

When they saw Liu Zhenghai draw his sword on the spot, everyone jumped. They all knew he had reached the brink of an absolute rampage!

Faced with Liu Zhenghai’s utterly furious expression, the hearts of the two men on stage, Wu Qihao and Qi Wuqi, leaped in fright.

Liu Zhenghai gritted his teeth and said venomously:

"You two bastards, give me my money back, now!"

After all, he had just transferred a full seven billion. The mere thought of it made Liu Zhenghai want to spit up blood.

At that moment, he had only one thought: get the money back, and fast. Otherwise, when he returned home, if Patriarch Liu had come out of his seclusion, he would surely beat him to death!

But how could they so easily return money that was already in their pockets?

Wu Qihao remained completely silent, his expression making it clear that a refund was impossible.

Liu Zhenghai’s gaze grew colder. He had already made up his mind: no matter what, he would not let these two leave the auction hall today.

However, Qi Wuqi’s eyes suddenly darted about as an idea came to him.

He waved his hand and said magnanimously:

"Mr. Liu, I won’t let you take a loss. I will be sure to give you a satisfactory resolution. How does that sound?"

Liu Zhenghai merely snorted, ’Let’s see what this bastard has to say.’

Under the confused gazes of the crowd, Qi Wuqi said directly:

"How about this? I can create a Fengshui Array for your Liu Family and embed it into this Compass. By then, the Compass will still be considered a decent Dharma Artifact. What do you think?"

To the average person, this explanation might have been passable. However, Liu Zhenghai had been utterly humiliated in front of so many of the Capital City’s elite. How could he possibly let the matter rest?

So, Liu Zhenghai shook his head and said gravely:

"No. You must return the seven billion to me. Otherwise, I’ll kill you both!"

Clearly, Liu Zhenghai no longer had any interest in this so-called Dharma Artifact. His only goal was to recoup his losses first.

’I can settle the score with these two bastards later!’

Faced with Liu Zhenghai’s blatant threat, Wu Qihao’s face instantly turned pale with fear.

Qi Wuqi, however, just sneered, completely unafraid.

’As the great number one Magic Master of Bay Port, how could he be so easily intimidated?’

"Heh, Mr. Liu, since you’re so adamant, then there’s nothing left to discuss! In that case, don’t blame me for what happens next!"

Qi Wuqi said with immense coldness.

His attitude made it clear he was prepared to clash head-on with the Liu Family!

Besides, Qi Wuqi’s thinking was very clear. ’As long as I find a chance to escape back to Bay Port, what can the Liu Family do to me, no matter how powerful they are?’

"Heh, is that so? It seems you intend to fight it out with my Liu Family!"

Liu Zhenghai’s eyes turned ice-cold.

And at that very moment, a large crowd of Liu Family members swarmed in from outside the venue!

These Liu Family members were all dressed in suits, their gazes sharp and intense. It was obvious that none of them were to be trifled with.

With so many people from the Liu Family arriving, the atmosphere in the hall instantly grew heavy.

Everyone knew that a huge fight was about to break out at any moment!

Having summoned so many of his clansmen, Liu Zhenghai believed he had the situation under control, and a confident, domineering expression appeared on his face.

"I’ll give you two one last chance. Refund the money now, or you’ll have to face the consequences!"

Liu Zhenghai said slowly, delivering his final ultimatum.

Wu Qihao’s face was grim as he remained silent, but Qi Wuqi, standing beside him, didn’t seem particularly afraid.

He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his expression as unshakable as a mountain. ’I’ve already made up my mind,’ he thought silently, ’I’m ready to use my arts to escape at a moment’s notice.’

"It seems you two don’t know what’s good for you. You can’t blame me for what comes next!"

Liu Zhenghai’s eyes slowly narrowed. He was about to give the order. ’First, take these two down.’

Just as the two sides were about to come to blows, Kong Lianqing, having heard what was happening, rushed back in from outside!

It turned out he had stepped out to take a phone call. He never expected to return to a scene like this.

Seeing that a conflict was about to erupt, Kong Lianqing quickly made his identity known.

"What do you think you’re doing? This is the Capital City, not a place for you to act so recklessly!"

Everyone couldn’t help but turn to look at him, only then recognizing that it was Kong Lianqing.

Kong Lianqing’s gaze swept coldly over the crowd as he spoke:

"I am the Pavilion Master of the Capital City General Security Pavilion. What, does my word not count for anything here?"

At once, the restless Liu Family members had no choice but to stand down, their faces filled with resentment.

Liu Zhenghai opened his mouth, but for a long moment, no words came out.

On the Capital City’s turf, no matter how powerful the Liu Family was, how could they dare to openly challenge the Security Pavilion?

After bringing the situation under control, Kong Lianqing walked directly over to Qin Tuo.

"Mr. Qin, what just happened here?"

Kong Lianqing asked, puzzled.

Qin Tuo then told him the whole story from beginning to end.

After hearing the story, Kong Lianqing’s expression turned extremely grim.

He looked coldly at Wu Qihao on the stage and said:

"Boss Wu, do you really think you can scam people in the Capital City and just walk away?"

Wu Qihao was instantly dismayed. ’How could I be so unlucky?’ he thought. ’To actually run into the Pavilion Master of the General Security Pavilion.’

Kong Lianqing continued in a threatening tone:

"Even if you were lucky enough to escape, would you live long enough to spend that money? Did you really think the people of the Capital City are such easy targets?!"

His words landed with heavy, resonant force, leaving Wu Qihao speechless for a long moment.

Of course, Wu Qihao understood perfectly well that Kong Lianqing’s status was nothing to scoff at.

Once they were on the radar of the Pavilion Master of the General Security Pavilion, there was no way they could get away with the money!

Even Qi Wuqi looked frustrated, unsure of what to do.

Finally, after some thought, Wu Qihao could only nod helplessly.

"Alright, then. Since it has come to this, I’ll return the money to Mr. Liu!"

Then, with Kong Lianqing as a witness, he transferred the full amount back to Liu Zhenghai.

Yet even so, Liu Zhenghai was not ready to let the matter rest.

He wouldn’t forget that the entire reason he had suffered such a huge loss was because of Qin Tuo.

Now that he had his money back, he completely transferred his hatred onto Qin Tuo and the Zhu Family.

Liu Zhenghai pointed a finger in Qin Tuo’s face and shouted:

"You punk, I’ll remember what you did today!"

But Qin Tuo just shook his head with a cold laugh, completely unfazed by the threat.

Although Kong Lianqing said nothing, he shot Liu Zhenghai a faint glance, the warning in his eyes perfectly clear.
