C12 Compensation
"Luo, Senior Brother Luo?" When Zhou Ning saw Luo Sheng, his legs went limp, and he lost all his strength.
Although trespassing into someone else's dormitory was forbidden, the punishment was actually very small. However, trespassing and injuring the owner of the dormitory was a very serious crime.
When he thought of the serious consequences, Zhou Ning felt a chill run down his spine.
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Ning hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Luo is not what you think. Actually, this Chu Xingyun is bold enough to steal someone else's storage bag. We only came to arrest him because we found out about this, and let him confess. However, not only did he not admit it, he also spoke rudely. I lost my rationality for a moment, so I attacked him. "
" Ridiculous, he's still quibbling at a time like this! " Luo Sheng shouted, "Do you know where he got his storage bag?"
"Where did it come from?" Zhou Ning asked subconsciously.
"I gave it to him!" Luo Sheng said, "Not to mention that the storage bag was not stolen by Chu Xingyun, even if it was stolen, it would not be up to you to intervene. You even forced your way into the dormitory and injured the dormitory owner, what kind of punishment is that?"
"I, I. . . " Zhou Ning stuttered and did not know what to say. Suddenly, he saw Chu Feng out of the corner of his eye, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. He quickly said, "Chu Feng, save me. Tell Senior Brother Luo that it is not like this. "
"He is also an intruder. Although he did not hurt anyone, he cannot protect himself. How can he save you?" Luo Sheng said.
"This, Senior Brother Luo. Actually, I was just curious and came in to take a look. I didn't force my way into the dormitory. " Chu Feng hurriedly explained. "I only followed Zhou Ning in. Originally, Zhou Ning forced his way in and I stopped him. In the end, he didn't listen to his advice and went straight in. After entering, he saw the storage bag on Chu Xingyun's body and insisted that it was stolen. He attacked directly when Chu Xingyun refused to admit it. I didn't think that things would turn out like this. I was just about to stop him, but I didn't expect you to come, senior brother. This is what happened. "
Luo Sheng's face turned green when he heard Chu Feng's explanation.
He never thought that Chu Feng, who was on his side, would sell him out in the blink of an eye, and even push all the blame onto him.
This made him unable to tolerate it.
"Chu Feng, don't slander me over there. " Zhou Ning shouted angrily, "You were the one who said you wanted to come and take a look first, and you were the one who said you stole his storage bag, but now you want to bite me back. You really deserve to die!"
At this moment, Zhou Ning's hatred was soaring to the sky. He wished that he could kill Chu Feng as soon as possible. His hatred towards Chu Feng had even exceeded Chu Xingyun's.
What people hated most was not enemies, but betrayal.
Chu Feng smiled and said, "Senior Brother Zhou Ning's words are wrong. I came in to ask where the storage bag came from. He did not insist that it was stolen. I just saw that one of the outer sect disciples had a bag of holding that surprised me, so I reacted normally. "
"Besides, the door was indeed pushed open first, wasn't it? Also. . . I didn't do anything, but you did. Do you want to deny all of this? It's all your fault. I just followed you in to take a look. As for accidentally barging into the dormitory, I can only apologize. For the sake of our family, I don't think you will make things difficult for me, Xingyun. "
" So that's how it is. I was wondering why you let me open the door. It turns out that you have already thought of a way out from the very beginning. You are really crafty! " Zhou Ning shouted angrily.
"What do you mean by this, Brother Zhou? Why can't I understand it?" Chu Feng started to pretend to be stupid.
"It's actually just a small matter. " Chu Xingyun suddenly opened his mouth at this moment. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "It's just a misunderstanding. It's not a big deal. "
Zhou Ning cried with joy. He almost hugged Chu Xingyun's thigh and cried. "Well said, well said. It's a misunderstanding. Let's fight and get to know each other. It's my fault this time. Later, when we go back, I will hold a banquet to apologize. "
"There's no need to apologize. Just compensate me with some practical things. " Chu Xingyun said. "I don't want much, just a hundred Spiritual Stones. "
"More, how much?" Zhou Ning thought he had misheard.
"One hundred. " Chu Xingyun said, "Do you think it's too little? If it's too little, I'll add more. "
Luo Sheng burst into laughter. He didn't expect Chu Xingyun to deliberately trick Zhou Ning.
"Junior Chu, please spare me. I really can't take out a hundred spirit stones. Otherwise, I can accept it if it's a little less. " Zhou Ning said.
"You forced your way into the dormitory and injured me. I feel like I've suffered severe internal injuries, and you're still bargaining with me?" Chu Xingyun clutched his chest as if he was about to die. "Why don't we go to the Law Enforcement Hall?"
"I also think that the Law Enforcement Hall is more reliable. " Luo Sheng agreed.
"I. . . " Zhou Ning wanted to cry but had no tears. If he really reported to the Law Enforcement Hall, with Luo Sheng's support, he would definitely be crippled. Therefore, he could only settle this matter privately. Even if the price offered by Chu Xingyun was ridiculous, he could only pinch his nose and endure it.
However, he really couldn't take out a hundred Spiritual Stones.
"That, Junior Brother Chu, I really can't take out so many Spiritual Stones on me. Can you give me a few more days, or lower my request a little? I don't mind if you don't use other things to pay the debt. " Zhou Ning said with a bitter face.
"Sigh, who asked me to be so kind? Why don't you give me the jade pendant on your waist? It can cover fifty Spiritual Stones, and I'll lower my request a little. You just need to give me another thirty Spiritual Stones. " Chu Xingyun said.
"Jade pendant?" Zhou Ning was surprised. He had obtained this jade pendant by accident. His intuition told him that it was a good thing, but it did not have any Qi waves. It did not seem like something precious.
However, because of his intuition, Zhou Ning had always kept it with him. It seemed that it had slightly increased his cultivation speed, but it did not seem to be something that was better than nothing. He did not expect Chu Xingyun to want this thing.
"Maybe he also felt that it was very special at first glance, so he wanted to go over. " Zhou Ning muttered, "That's good too. He gave me something of little value. "
Thinking of this, Zhou Ning said, "Alright, we'll do as Junior Chu said. "
After saying that, Zhou Ning took off the jade pendant and took out another thirty Spiritual Stones.
However, these thirty Spiritual Stones were extremely unwilling to be given. This was almost all of his belongings. Originally, Zhou Ning planned to buy a weapon and then cultivate for two months. Now, all of it had gone down the drain.
However, he had no choice but to lower his head under the roof. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only hand it over honestly.
"Cousin, what about you?" Chu Xingyun took Zhou Ning's things and looked at Chu Feng. Although Chu Feng used Zhou Ning as a shield this time, Chu Xingyun could not let him go so easily. Although it was difficult to punish him, he had to at least make him spit something out.
"Well, we are family. I have also admitted my mistake. Let's just forget about it this time. " Chu Xingyun said.
"Hehe, you make it sound good. But he was with you, and you didn't stop him when you saw him beating up your family. Shouldn't you show some respect? " Chu Xingyun said, "This is your attitude towards your family?"
"When your family is bullied, you stand aside and watch the show. Tsk tsk, such a family is really hard to come by. " Luo Sheng sighed and said.
"Indeed, I have done something wrong. What do you want?" Chu Feng knew that he would have to bleed this time.
"I don't need much. Give me twenty Spiritual Stones. " Chu Xingyun said casually.
Chu Feng's pupils shrank. He only had twenty Spiritual Stones on him now. Chu Xingyun was going to suck him dry!
"Isn't the family being too ruthless?" Chu Feng. "How about ten Spiritual Stones?"
"That's not right. It's precisely because we're family that you should compensate a little more. If you give less, doesn't that mean you're an outsider? " Chu Xingyun said.
"What you said makes sense. You are already a family, yet you are still so petty. Don't tell me you are talking nonsense? " Luo Sheng said.
Chu Feng was speechless. He could only obediently take out twenty Spiritual Stones to save himself from disaster.
Chu Xingyun smiled when he took the Chu Xingyuns. "I'll pretend nothing happened today. Take care, both of you. "
Chu Feng and Zhou Ning didn't want to stay here any longer. When they heard this, they immediately turned around and left, disappearing without a trace.
"Junior Brother Chu is really capable. He actually managed to earn so many Spiritual Stones so easily. " After the two of them left, Luo Sheng couldn't help but praise.
He knew very well that if they really arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall, they wouldn't receive too many punishments. Even if they had to pay a huge price, there wouldn't be too many of them that would fall into Chu Xingyun's hands in the end. Therefore, Chu Xingyun had earned a lot from this transaction.
"The main thing is to rely on Senior Brother Luo. " Chu Xingyun said modestly, "Do you want to share some of the Spiritual Stones?"
Luo Sheng waved his hand. "No need. I still have a lot of Spiritual Stones on me. I'll be leaving first. If you have any trouble in the future, just come and find me. "
"I will. " Chu Xingyun nodded slightly.
"By the way, there is a voucher to enter the Fire Cave. There are two chances to enter the Fire Cave. " Luo Sheng suddenly said, "The Fire Cave is a cultivation treasure ground of Magnificent Sun Sect. There is abundant fire attribute spiritual energy inside, it is a good place for cultivation. However, because the fire attribute spiritual energy contains a great amount of destructive force, ordinary people won't be able to withstand it for long. Junior Chu, you have to be careful. "
"I will. " Chu Xingyun nodded slightly.
"Then, I will take my leave. " Luo Sheng said and left the dormitory.
