Chapter 126 - If You Want to Fight, Then Lets Fight! The Great Sage Sun and the Third Lotus Prince Nezha (1/2)
A wave of hurried footsteps echoed out. There were about a couple dozen people from the sound of the footsteps. Quite a few of them should be wielding weapons. Heavy thuds could be heard when the weapons slammed to the ground.
Qin Fen weakly shook his head as he gently chuckled. It looked like competition in this Hell City was much more intense than he imagined. Merely asking to see the two villa masters had caused the other party to muster a large number of troops.
The firm and arrogant voice of a young man slowly resonated through the hall. “Open the door, Flying Monkey! We of the Thunder Mountain Villa can be defeated, but we will never have our courage beaten out of us.”
A hint of praise more or less flashed in Qin Fen’s eyes. The man should be young from the sound of his voice, but a bit of grandeur was contained within his words.
The two sides of the door slowly opened at the same time, and Qin Fen saw two young men standing in the middle of the hall. His eyes lit up once more, while Zhang Xiangyang and his other comrades beside him whispered cries of shock, “Huh?”
The external appearances of these two men were like their names. Fire and water were two extremes, and their figures were one tall and skinny—as if a mere gust of wind could knock him over—and one short and stout— so short that if one were to press down on him during a fight using one’s body, he wouldn’t become any shorter.
“You two should be the villa masters around here, right?” Qin Fen looked at the thunder pair of fire and water with a level gaze. He didn’t even look at the devils and monsters standing on the two sides in the villa. Qin Fen took large strides into the mountain villa and cupped his hands in greeting once more. “Dragon Hall. Thirty-Six Hours.”
“Dragon Hall?”
The thunder pair of fire and water had their eyes go blank for a moment. What sect was the Dragon Hall? They had never heard of it.
“Thirty-Six Hours?”
The two young men with blank expressions suddenly had their eyes radiate with understanding. They spoke in unison. “You’re that guy who’d go chasing money in death?”
Go chasing money in death? Qin Fen was stunned for a moment before he recalled the fame he received for striving to make money. These days he had quite a bit of reputation in the Sky Battle Net.
This was especially true for the four-star level and lower. The ID Thirty-Six Hours was more famous than several of experts ranked in the top one hundred.
Qin Fen didn’t even respond, and even the two Villa Master of Thunder Mountain Villa instantly became nervous and on guard. “What have you come here for?”
Qin Fen was stunned once more. These two young men had been quite grand and imposing just now. Why did they become so cautious in the mere blink of an eye?
Then Qin Fen heard comments come from the other members of the Thunder Mountain Villa.
“So you’re that Thirty-Six Hours, eh?”
“Hiding his face. It looks like this guy’s up to no good.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. He’s just a money-sucking vampire. Be careful that you don’t catch his eye.”
“Yeah, that’s right. That’s right. I heard that every time he disappears and reappears, he will rake in crazy money. He’s been gone for quite a while before reappearing this time around.”
Qin Fen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He never thought that rumors now talked about him like a severe flood or fierce beast, something extremely dangerous, while he was gone from the network for the past few days.
“Villa Masters, I have come here to pay a visit. I wish to ask you two for a sign.”
“A sect-challenge?” The eyebrows of the two villa masters shot up at the same time. “I never thought that you’ve extended your schemes of making money all the way here to the main battle network!”
“I think that you two may have a bit of a misunderstanding.” Qin Fen took half a step back, indicating that he had no intention of doing a sect-challenge. “I didn’t come here to challenge your sect. Three days ago, the Dragon Hall I founded had its sign taken down by the Certain Victory Sect. I only came to know of this matter today, so I hurried to the Certain Victory Sect only to find out that they no longer have their sign as well. Only after asking around did I find out that the signs made their way to the Thunder Mountain Villa.”
“Ohhhhh.”
Aqua Thunder and Fiery Thunder’s expressions changed. Their precautions turned to complacency. The money-sucking vampire had actually come to ask for his sign back. This was far too great! A chance to become famous suddenly dropped down from the sky!
Currently, Thirty-Six Hours had considerable fame within the battle network. If the Thunder Mountain Villa could cheat this money-sucking vampire, the Thirty-Six Hours would become a fiery hit. Quite a few people who possessed quite a bit of hatred for Thirty-Six Hours would come here to seek shelter.
As a result, the number of members of their organization would quickly increase and expand. Once they reached a certain level in number, they wouldn’t need to be afraid of matters such as the sect-challenge! They could become a five-thousand member organization! Aside from a top-notch expert, who could defeat all five-thousand members in a sect-challenge? Even if a meteor level expert came, such a person would die from exhaustion going through all these people!
Qin Fen watched the two and their gradually changing expressions. The psychology that Squad Leader Hao had taught him quickly analyzed this, and the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art had already begun to slowly compress the moment Qin Fen received his answer.
“Thirty-Six Hours. If we give you the sign just because you want it, how can we of the Thunder Mountain Villa still have a footing on this street in the future?”
“That’s right! The Certain Victory Sect took down your Dragon Hall. We took revenge for you. This counts as a sort of favor. Yet you came here this time without bringing any gifts? Then that sign itself can be the gift.”
“Brother Aqua, why are you being like this? If Thirty-Six Hours is willing to come up with five thousand bucks to buy back his sign, I will still entertain the thought.”
“Five thousand? That’s a bit low, don’t you think? Should we be collecting a safekeeping fee?”
