Chapter 32 This is outrageous!
Just kidding, the spoils were won by Dong Guanfei himself, what does that have to do with compensation?
Don't let the money from stolen antique dealers go to waste.
"I'm not in a hurry. Wait for me for fifteen minutes. I need to take care of something I'm doing."
"If Zhang Fubao agrees to a settlement, I'll give you five gold coins. Just give them to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dong Guanfei turned and left, quickly exiting the manor gate, and then waved for a rickshaw to come over from a short distance away.
Zhao Huibao kept watching his back until the rickshaw disappeared around the corner before turning back.
Wang Anyue has already put away his secret techniques of internal energy.
Dong Guanfei had deliberately raised his voice when he spoke, so his request was heard by them word for word.
Zhang Fubao's face was turning pale and then red, and both his hands were trembling slightly.
Deceiving too much!
It's so deceiving!
Five gold coins are enough to buy a small villa estate, or seventy-five "Great Essence Pills".
Just then, the remaining three silver members came over and all wanted to withdraw from the mission.
Dong Guanfei seemed too dangerous to them, and his combat power far exceeded theirs. They were unwilling to take such a big risk for a mission worth a few silver coins.
After Dong Guanfei left, they activated the hidden camera in the silver badge and filmed the scene.
Even if Zhang Fubao disagrees with their withdrawal, they can go back to the Shadow Alliance Club to appeal.
The team hadn't even officially set off yet, and the employer had already activated his Qi Circle, indicating that the mission was far beyond their capabilities.
If they run fast enough, they can even sell Dong Guanfei's exclusive intelligence to the club.
So they just said hello and left quickly.
As for the two Silver members who died, no one cares.
The Shadow Alliance Club won't interfere; they're not babysitters.
Under normal circumstances, the Shadow Alliance will not take any action unless someone provides concrete evidence to prove that the employer or employee has violated the agreement.
Of course, employers or employees can also pay a large sum of extra money to sign a more secure contract.
However, they wouldn't normally do that, because it's a really big amount of money.
This is why Zhang Fubao only recruited members below the Silver beginner and intermediate levels this time.
Zhao Guanghua patted Zhang Fubao on the shoulder and then nodded slightly to the others.
The group immediately headed towards the main entrance on the first floor of the villa.
Shortly after, they stopped in the living room on the first floor.
Before Zhao Guanghua could speak, Zhang Fubao said in a deep voice, "I've given it to you. Five gold coins are no problem. I'll leave it to Sister Huibao."
The other four people couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.
Zhao Guanghua breathed a quiet sigh of relief.
It would be best if Zhang Fubao could come to his senses.
In fact, in just a short while, Zhang Fubao did figure it out.
Wang Anyue's duty was to protect the Zhao Guanghua and Zhao Huibao sisters, and at most, to protect them when he could.
The dozen or so guards currently in the courtyard also belong to the Zhao family.
Almost all of his capable men had been sent out, otherwise he wouldn't have needed to recruit help.
Even though Zhao Huibao terminated the protection commission with Dong Guanfei in advance, Zhang Fubao was still unhappy.
Because that would allow Dong Guanfei to remain hidden in the shadows, and with his incredible marksmanship, he would be in even greater danger.
Moreover, Dong Guanfei already knew the general route of their operation. Although some specific routes would change, most of the route before reaching Fairy Child Mountain would remain the same.
Therefore, if Dong Guanfei were to ambush him before reaching the Xiantong Mountain area, it would be very difficult for him to avoid it.
After arriving at Xiantong Mountain, Zhang Fubao will meet up with several of his men and the twenty-odd newly recruited men. With Wang Anyue watching over them, they will actually be safer.
It's obvious that Dong Guanfei is also wary of Wang Anyue, otherwise he wouldn't have let Zhang Fubao off the hook for the time being.
Furthermore, since the five gold coins passed through Zhao Huibao's hands, and "Ruthless" was also recruited under her authority, the Zhao family has a certain responsibility to protect his safety.
Besides, he's already backed down so much. Killing someone is just a matter of a head falling to the ground. Being "ruthless" doesn't really mean he's at a disadvantage. Surely he won't be so relentless.
Once this incident is resolved, a powerful figure from the Zhang family will naturally step in. At that time, whether it's revenge or a genuine reconciliation, there will be a reliable outcome.
In reality, Zhang Fubao was a big businessman.
Compared to "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" style revenge, after calming down a bit, he prefers to eliminate potential threats through safer transactions.
Therefore, Dong Guanfei's offer of five gold coins as compensation actually made Zhang Fubao more willing to believe him.
For those in the antique business, it's not uncommon to be fooled by fakes and suffer huge losses.
The essence of this incident is that Zhang Fubao misjudged Dong Guanfei, so admitting defeat and staying safe is not an unacceptable thing.
The important thing is that five gold coins are not too much of a burden for him.
Zhao Guanghua nodded and slowly said, "That's for the best, my dear brother. Your family is large and your health is precious. Safety comes first. We can ask some uncles and elders to help out later."
Zhao Huibao was surprised that Dong Guanfei could extort five gold coins so easily. Her big eyes were full of astonishment.
That guy... he's really something...
Zhang Wanxin smiled and offered a way out, "I wonder how this 'Ruthless' technique was trained, what his background is, to be so powerful at such a young age. Bao'er, why don't you try to find out more about it these next few days?"
"Sister Wanxin, that guy is as hard as a rock, it's tough!"
......
At the same time, Dong Guanfei got off the bus in a residential area that resembled a Shikumen-style building.
After wandering around for a while, he put everything into his spatial storage in a secluded spot, leaving only the "Punisher No. 8" magic gun in a cloth bag.
He then walked out of the street and took a rickshaw back to Zhang's mansion.
This time, he acquired two "Demon Hunter No. 3" rifles, two "Punisher No. 8" rifles, a defense badge, two military knives, five bottles of twelve "Great Essence Pills", seven silver coins, as well as some jewelry, eagle dollars, and ammunition.
The two deceased Silver members were both in the mid-stage of the Transcendent Realm, and their mental acuity was relatively sharp, which is why they were able to react so quickly.
But in the blink of an eye, the guy with the defense badge drew his gun but failed to activate the badge in time, and could only die.
In reality, cultivators at the Transcendent Realm often lack spiritual power in the early stages and can only activate low-level magical artifacts relatively freely when they reach the peak of the middle stage.
Dong Guanfei is an exception; his mental strength is comparable to that of a normal early-stage "spiritual energy" cultivator.
Clearly, the "Secret Techniques of the Beast Clan" is anything but simple.
He has already practiced his spiritual magic today, and there may not be a safe environment for him in the next few days.
The key point is that the transformation of the body is not yet over.
With these "Great Elixir of Divine Essence", he should be able to undergo another transformation soon after this one is complete.
When he returned to the Zhang mansion, everyone else got into the four cars, while only Zhao Huibao and Zhang Wanxin waited for him in the manor courtyard.
