After learning how the bandits had reacted, most bounty hunters slowed their pace, wanting to know what Liba Beach intended.
After all, Liba Beach had offered the bounty to defend its reputation. Now that its reputation had been upheld, would it know when to stop?
But Feng Jun did not believe a single word of that explanation. Before robbing something, wouldn't they find out who it was meant for?
If they had robbed fifteen Spirit Stones or Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, that would have been one thing. But these were fifteen Extreme Spirit Stones! Was that something they could just casually lay their hands on?
Street punks could snatch a phone or a necklace without much pressure, but tell them to rob a bank and see whether they had the guts.
In the end, those bandits had not taken Feng Jun seriously. Or perhaps they thought he was the sort of cultivator who cared only about himself and would not stand up over matters unrelated to him.
In any case, they had never expected Liba Beach not only to step forward, but also to put up such a huge bounty. To be honest, only one of the top-ranked clans could probably afford such an extravagant display.
Even the Seven Sects and Eighteen Paths would not do something so obviously unprofitable. After all, they had merely been prospective customers who had not yet made a deal.
So Feng Jun made his stance clear and continued hunting the criminals. "Liba Beach's dignity cannot be violated. If apologies were useful, what would we need constables for?"
