Jiang Chen unleashed the Yin Ling Jue, and in an instant, the Spiritual Energy within a ten-mile radius converged towards him. The Spiritual Energy swirled like mist and threads, and Jiang Chen opened his mouth to swallow it whole, drawing the energy directly into his abdomen.
It could be said that in less than a minute, all the Spiritual Energy that Li Yunye had accumulated over decades through the Gathering Spirit Formation was consumed by Jiang Chen. At this moment, the air was devoid of Spiritual Energy, becoming dry and barren.
"You... how did you do that?" Li Yunye was utterly dumbfounded. His formation required Spiritual Energy to activate, and now Jiang Chen had swallowed it all in one go. How could he possibly activate the formation now?
Li Yunye felt like crying without tears; even a prominent elder of Hongmen found himself at a loss.
"Stop thinking about your little formation. It may kill a thousand enemies but will harm yourself eight hundred in return, not to mention it’s completely useless against me," Jiang Chen said, causing Li Yunye's face to flush with embarrassment.
"W-we from Hongmen are willing to offer you one billion dollars," Li Yunye suddenly proposed. At this point, if he still believed he could defeat Jiang Chen, he must have been out of his mind.
"One billion isn't enough anymore," Jiang Chen replied with a smile.
"Then... how much do you want?" Li Yunye furrowed his brow slightly.
"How much do you think your life and your disciple's life are worth?" Jiang Chen asked with a grin.
"Life is certainly priceless," Li Yunye responded.
"Since it's priceless, I won't ask for much more—one hundred million dollars. How does that sound?" Jiang Chen stated.
"What? One hundred million dollars? That's impossible! You're really asking for too much," Li Yunye exclaimed hastily.
One hundred million dollars was an astronomical sum for both Hongmen and the Robert Family.
"I'm not asking for it all at once. How about this: ten million dollars a year? If you agree, I’ll wipe the slate clean between us and Hongmen. If not, today you die, and your disciple dies too. I will destroy Hongmen," Jiang Chen said flatly.
His calm tone was aggressive; meanwhile, White had nearly shrunk his head into his neck. The imposing demeanor he had shown before Jiang Chen had vanished completely.
"I agree," Li Yunye finally sighed in resignation. He didn’t think Jiang Chen was joking; if Jiang Chen dared to kill Yan Xiaotian, he would certainly dare to kill him as well.
"Good. Jon, come here; from now on, you will collect Hongmen's annual payments on my behalf," Jiang Chen instructed.
Jon Delson nodded eagerly.
"Now that this matter is settled, let’s go," Jiang Chen said.
"Mr. Jiang, please wait!" Li Yunye called out cautiously from behind as Jiang Chen had taken only a few steps.
"Li Yunye, your cultivation has reached a bottleneck in martial arts. If you want to advance further, don’t think about it for three years. After three years, we’ll see what opportunities and fortunes await you," Jiang Chen continued walking without stopping. By the time he finished speaking, he had already left the villa.
Li Yunye was left in shock; Jiang Chen seemed to have insight into his thoughts and knew what he wanted to ask. However, hearing Jiang Chen's answer only deepened his confusion.
"Mr. Jiang, why wait three years?" Li Yunye shouted after him.
"You're getting on in years; focus on living for another three years first," Jiang Chen's voice echoed from a distance. By the time Li Yunye chased after him, Jiang Chen had already gotten into his car and driven away.
"I can definitely live for another three years, but will I truly have an opportunity and fortune to help me break through my bottleneck after that?" Li Yunye murmured to himself.
