Yu Beidou was busy in Yinguang City, suppressing the Blood Demon's body.
Jiang Green Sheep left Star Moon Plain with the stupid dog.
Meanwhile, in Green Sheep Town, Chongxuan Sheng flew into a towering rage over the one-use protective talisman Yu Beidou had left for Jiang Wang...
His fat finger nearly jabbed into Zhang Weiyu's face. "You think this can just be let go? Let me tell you, absolutely not! You must compensate us! Do you know how precious Yu Beidou's talisman was? Only my brother Jiang Wang, with his heaven-gifted talent and peerless gifts, was worthy of such a treasure. Would Yu Beidou ever be willing to give it to just anyone? No one's pleas will matter today. If you won't pay up, I'll go collect from Court Consultant Chen. And if Court Consultant Chen refuses, I'll take this case all the way before His Majesty!"
Zhang Weiyu knew that going to collect a debt from Court Consultant Chen... this fat man was truly capable of it.
If Zhang Weiyu did something so suicidal, he would be gambling away the prospects of his entire life. But for a scion of a top Name Gate like Chongxuan Sheng, at most, people would call him rash.
Thus, Chongxuan Sheng could wield this as a weapon, while he had no choice but to take it seriously.
This world had never been fair.
The Qi State had existed for far too long. Those hereditary dukes and ministers had, over the years, built an insurmountable gulf.
A man of ordinary birth like him had to put in several times the effort just to climb to roughly the same position, just to be able to cross swords here and now.
With a cold face, he said, "I will bear whatever responsibility is mine to bear."
