King Kong stared at Ximen Chuifeng's departing figure, feeling uneasy.
"You scoundrel, Ximen Chuifeng! Don't let me see you in a bad situation! Otherwise, I'll settle all old scores with you!"
King Kong wasn't stupid; he realized he'd been tricked. But the situation was too embarrassing, so he had no choice but to admit it, otherwise he'd lose even more face.
Xiao Tian was secretly delighted, but he hadn't gone far when he was stopped by people from the Bodhi Group.
" Senior Dugu, on the young lady's orders, this hundred yuan is returned to you."
Beneath the Ultraman mask, Xiao Tian raised an eyebrow. Sure enough, the Bodhi Group had guessed his identity.
The Evolver were not far away were greatly alarmed. They had excellent hearing and could clearly hear how the Bodhi Group addressed Xiao Tian.
"Isn't he Ximen Chuifeng? Why is he called Dugu?"
"Hmph! I knew all along that Ximen Chuifeng was an alias! It seems the Bodhi Group and this Dugu guy know each other."
King Kong was about to return to his own camp, his powerful hearing forced him to turn his gaze towards the Bodhi Group.
" Senior Dugu, the young lady has instructed that this money must be returned to you." A guard from the Bodhi Family said solemnly and resolutely.
"Hmph!" Xiao Tian feigned displeasure, pushing away the guard's outstretched hand, and said angrily, "Who do you think I am! You think you can get rid of me with just a hundred bucks!"
The guard was dumbfounded.
Many people within the Bodhi Group who witnessed the transaction were also stunned.
Jiang Zhexian suddenly had a bad feeling.
" Senior Dugu, what nonsense are you spouting? All you gave me back then was a hundred-yuan bill, just this one!"
Jiang Zhexian Heavenly Immortal, strolled before Xiao Tian, her beautiful face now clouded with frost.
"Nonsense!" Xiao Tian snorted coldly, turned around and glanced at the other Evolver, the Ancient God Biological Gene Group, the Alien Research Group that arrived later, Chu Feng and others, pointed at Jiang Zhexian and said to everyone, "Gentlemen, I hereby hope that you can stand up for me!"
The Evolver reacted in various ways, their gossipy nature Awakening in response to this unexpected event.
" Senior Dugu! What do you mean by this?" Jiang Zhexian coldly.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Tian said irritably, "Back then, I discovered a spiritual ginseng, but unfortunately, your group found it. You said you wanted to trade it and offered me a satisfactory price. Who knew that the transaction would take an unexpected turn? Your advanced large-scale firearms locked onto me, threatening me to hand over the spiritual ginseng. I couldn't bear to see the surrounding flowers and plants buried along with it, so I had no choice but to accept it."
"Who would have thought that you would actually want me to pay for your lost time?"
"That's a bank card with a limit of 500 million! Good heavens! And now you've suddenly come up with this idea to humiliate me by paying back the money! What are you up to!" Xiao Tian's expression was one of grief and indignation, his tone filled with extreme anger.
The Evolver were skeptical, but many joined in the commotion, demanding that the Bodhi Group give Xiao Tian justice.
"Using high-tech weapons to threaten people! This is outrageous! Return the money to Senior Dugu immediately!" The Alien Research Group couldn't help but shout.
These two groups were already at odds, and naturally they wouldn't let this opportunity pass by to put the Bodhi Group in a difficult position.
The Bodhi Group was immediately ridiculed by everyone, Jiang Zhexian almost vomited blood. She was so angry that she almost washed her hairpin off.
Her original intention was simply to return the money to annoy this Senior Dugu, but who would have thought that something like this would happen.
"Miss Jiang! So many of our Evolver brothers are here! You're not going to threaten me with your family's weapons, are you? Everyone has a temper! Even if I'm half-dead from your high-tech heavy weapons bombardment, I'll fight you to the bitter end! I believe justice will prevail!" Xiao Tian roared indignantly.
"Well said! Your Excellency Dugu, our Alien Research Group supports you! If the Jiang Family dares to launch large-scale thermal weapons, then we will launch them too, and blow them up!"
The leader of the Alien Research Group, who was not afraid of causing trouble, roared.
"Thank you, brother!" Xiao Tian clasped his hands in thanks towards the Alien Research Group.
" Senior Dugu! Don't go too far!" Jiang Zhexian was filled with regret.
"I'm being unreasonable? Little girl! Who's really being unreasonable here! Your group has no martial ethics, bullying a 73-year-old man like me! My hard-earned money! This trip to Kunlun was intended to gather some spiritual materials for my grandson to refine Foundation Establishment Spirit Liquid, but I never expected that the travel expenses my daughter-in-law gave me would be completely swindled away by you! How am I supposed to go back and explain this to my daughter-in-law, my son, and my grandson!"
As he spoke, Xiao Tian became more and more immersed in his role, looking up at the sky and crying bitterly. Even the heavens were moved, and dark clouds gathered, bringing a light drizzle.
"This is an extraordinary phenomenon! Even the heavens cannot tolerate it! Bodhi Group! I urge you to be kind!" roared Evolver with an overflowing sense of justice.
" Bodhi Group! Pay back the money now!"
Chu Feng and Zhou Quan exchanged a glance as they looked at the impressive scene around them.
" Fengzi, this Senior Dugu is truly extraordinary."
"It's none of our business, so let's observe and talk less," Chu Feng murmured, though inwardly he deeply admired that Senior Dugu.
King Kong now had a new understanding of Dugu. His face darkened as he returned to his group.
"Let's go. We'd better not make any sudden moves where this Dugu Masked Man is!"
Chen Feng also realized that this Masked Man was too much of a troublemaker; he was practically a pest.
" King Kong, we must get our revenge sometime soon."
"That's for sure." A fierce glint flashed in King Kong's eyes.
At this moment, the entire Bodhi Group witnessed firsthand the terror of real-world verbal violence.
"You masked guy! Don't push your luck! You're talking nonsense! When has our Bodhi Group ever threatened you or forcibly taken your bank card?"
Jiang Zhexian stared intently at Xiao Tian, her mood worse than ever before.
" Senior Dugu! Our Bodhi Group denies this! This hundred yuan was given to you when you asked for water! Whether you take it or not is up to you! Let's go!"
"Hmph! What a heartless corporation! They cheated me out of my bank card, and in front of so many Gouketsu and powerful figures, they only offered to pay me 100 yuan! Are you insulting all the capable individuals present?!"
Boom!
The heavens seemed to be enraged. A bolt of lightning struck the spot where the Bodhi Group was retreating, blasting a large crater where dust flew and debris splattered all over some of the Bodhi Group's guards.
Even the heavens couldn't stand it anymore! The Bodhi Group! The eldest daughter of the Jiang Family! Nothing special!
"Rumors in the Evolver World say that the eldest daughter of the Jiang Family is unparalleled in both beauty and character, surpassing all others in the world. I never expected her to be this kind of person! Bah!"
Jiang Zhexian trembled with anger, but in this situation, if her Bodhi Group were to actually return the bank card, wouldn't that confirm the fabricated story?
"Walk!"
" Bodhi Group! My lifeblood! You just wait! From now on, when you encounter prey, don't blame me for taking it!" Xiao Tian roared, filled with grief and indignation.
Jiang Zhexian stumbled as she boarded the carriage, almost staggering.
Turning her head to take a closer look at the Dugu Masked Man, Jiang Zhexian gritted her teeth, feeling both ashamed and angry, and got into the car.
"Withdraw!"
"Hmph!" Watching the departing Bodhi Group, Xiao Tian scoffed, thinking to himself, "Why did you have to come and pay me back at a time like that? Do you think I'm the kind of person who's short of a hundred bucks? You're disgusting me, I'll disgust you to death!"
"Ding! Hidden achievement completed: Turn the Tables! Achievement Points earned: 1!"
Xiao Tian felt relieved, but he knew he had to keep working hard to activate more of the Heaven-Equaling Divine Ability.
At this moment, the Alien Research Group arrived.
Team leader Long Ye walked up to Xiao Tian, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, " Your Excellency Dugu, greetings! I am Long Ye, the team leader of the Alien Research Group!"
"Young friend Long Ye! Thank you very much!"
"Not at all, we are truly ashamed; we failed to seek justice for you."
Xiao Tian waved his hand and sighed, "This money went into the Bodhi Group's pockets. Getting them to repay it is easier said than done."
" Your Excellency Dugu, rest assured, there will be other opportunities in the future. Our Alien Research Group will definitely strive to help you obtain justice!"
"Young friend Long Ye, thank you very much! I am weary and exhausted, so I will take my leave now. We shall meet again another time."
"Very well, Your Excellency Dugu, please!"
After watching Xiao Tian leave, Long Ye's assistant whispered, "Captain Long, this Your Excellency Dugu is no simple man. I know something about the character of the eldest daughter of the Jiang Family; I'm afraid the matter of that bank card is not simple."
Long Ye chuckled softly, "This matter is entirely fabricated, but it's something we'd be happy to see, as it can strike a blow against the Bodhi Group and annoy them a bit. This Your Excellency Dugu's origins are unknown, but his methods are extremely powerful. The King Kong of the Ancient God Biological Group has repeatedly suffered setbacks at his hands. There are still many reclusive masters within our Country H. This advance mission to Kunlun must be approached with caution and care."
"Yes, Captain Long."
One day later.
Having adjusted his mindset after a terrible day, Jiang Zhexian and his team have now arrived at a strange mountain.
"Young Miss, all the instruments here have malfunctioned! The magnetic field here is too chaotic!"
Jiang Zhexian frowned, took out his three-foot-long sword, and began thrusting it across the mountainside.
Clang!
"Indeed, this mountain is no ordinary place."
"This is Bronze Mountain!"
"It is indeed a Bronze Mountain. Banished Immortal, leave the main force at the foot of the mountain, and let the elites come up with us." An old man beside him said.
"Uncle, what have you noticed?"
Elder Jiang Xinyan is a highly respected elder in the Jiang Family Bodhi Group, and an important member that Jiang Zhexian had been waiting for. He joined the team half a day ago.
" My Banished Immortal, the higher this Bronze Mountain goes, the more chaotic its magnetic field becomes. It could be life-threatening for ordinary people. There might also be natural Domain or restrictions on the mountain. We must be extremely careful."
"In that case, we must act quickly. Zhao Fu, you lead the men to a safe place to set up camp. Those who are at least Middle Awakening Stage will come with us up the mountain."
Four hours later.
Chu Feng and Zhou Quan also arrived at Bronze Mountain.
"Calling out." Chu Feng clutched his chest, his brows furrowed, looking at the misty mountain peaks, when he suddenly felt something strange in his body.
