Li Zerui and Zhu Hongsheng’s faces became extremely unsightly.
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow.
"Unwilling is fine too, I can just take apart a few parts from you as a punishment."
Zhou Yu’s gaze swept over the two, apparently considering which parts to take.
The two shivered violently in fear.
Li Zerui was the first to buckle under the pressure, and he gritted his teeth.
Zhou Yu smiled faintly.
"At least you know the times, so tell me, how much are you willing to pay?"
Li Zerui’s face looked terrible, his body trembled, he hesitated for a moment, then named a figure.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu raised his eyebrow, a dangerous curve forming at the corner of his mouth.
"Are you sure you’re only worth that much?"
Li Zerui was frightened by Zhou Yu’s expression and hurriedly changed his offer.
"No no, five... eighty million!"
Zhou Yu stared at Li Zerui, smiling faintly.
"It seems the young master of Tianniao Commerce isn’t as valuable as I thought."
"If it’s eighty million, then killing you wouldn’t cause the Tianniao Commerce too much trouble, would it?"
Upon hearing this, Li Zerui almost cried out.
With a grief-stricken face, he roared,
"Zhou Yu, don’t be too excessive, I’m not currently in control of the commerce, I can only mobilize up to five billion a year from the commerce, and more than half the year has already passed, eighty million is already my limit."
Upon hearing this, a gleam flashed across Zhou Yu’s eyes.
"Five billion, that’s quite a substantial amount."
"Then it’s five billion."
"You have ten minutes, I want to see this money, or else, bear the consequences."
Li Zerui’s face froze, then filled with grief and indignation.
"If you disagree, I can send you on your way right now."
Zhou Yu stepped forward, his imposing aura instantly bearing down on Li Zerui.
Li Zerui’s breath caught, and he couldn’t speak anymore.
He only felt enveloped by a will of death, perhaps in the next moment, with a wave of Zhou Yu’s hand, he would have to say goodbye to this world.
"Don’t... don’t... I agree!"
Li Zerui said with difficulty.
Zhou Yu then withdrew his aura.
"Watch the time, you only have ten minutes."
Saying this, Zhou Yu no longer paid attention to Li Zerui and turned his head to Zhu Hongsheng.
Seeing what had happened to Li Zerui, Zhu Hongsheng, despite his immense anger, wisely chose to bow his head.
"I’ll raise the money immediately, five billion transferred to you."
Zhou Yu nodded in satisfaction.
"Good, I like people who are straightforward like you."
After saying this, Zhou Yu handed them a card number, then stood aside leisurely waiting.
Meanwhile, the Bai Family members nearby were stunned.
Half an hour ago, they were still worrying about their future and panicked about being discovered by the Zhu Family and the Tianniao Commerce, these large forces.
Who could have expected that half an hour later, these giants’ young masters would be subdued under Zhou Yu, paying him to spare their lives?
Bai Yulou stared at Zhou Yu, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
When he first met Zhou Yu in Yancheng, he couldn’t seem to place him properly.
But now, Zhou Yu’s excellence far exceeded his expectations.
His vast Bai Family didn’t even have a young descendant who could compare to Zhou Yu.
This left him momentarily not knowing whether to feel sad or happy.
Similarly, Bai Yutong’s beautiful eyes also kept sneaking glances at Zhou Yu.
Initially, she thought Zhou Yu was arrogant and ignorant of the extent of the sky and the earth.
But having witnessed the scene just now, she became full of curiosity about this young man who was about her age.
Bai Yutong approached Bai Yulou and asked quietly,
"Dad, did you say he is Luoluo’s fiancé?"
Bai Yulou glanced at his daughter, sighed, and nodded.
"Yutong, from now on, he will be your brother-in-law."
Bai Yulou’s words seemed to remind his daughter not to harbor other thoughts.
But Bai Yutong obviously didn’t quite understand his meaning, as her gaze towards Zhou Yu grew even more curious.
Meanwhile, no one noticed that Bai Qishan’s body, which had previously been vibrant with vitality, was beginning to gradually fade away.
Three months ago, the Life-Extending Elixir he had taken had already been depleted by his exertions moments ago; now, his eyes sunk back, his skin dried up, and his vitality dissipated little by little.
Yet, there was no sign of sorrow in his eyes, rather they were filled with relief.
At least, before his death, he knew the Bai Family had a reliable young man to depend on.
He faced death without regrets.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
Li Zerui and Zhu Hongsheng transferred five billion into Zhou Yu’s account in succession.
After confirming the transaction, Zhou Yu said faintly,
Filled with rage but daring not to show it, the two men quickly got up and escaped in a disgraceful manner.
Zhou Yu turned to look at the Bai Family members and said with a faint smile,
"Everyone, the crisis is now over."
"There’s no need to be so tense anymore, we can leave this place boldly."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yulou shook his head.
"I’m afraid it’s not that simple."
"Having faced such a defeat, the Tianniao Commerce and the Zhu Family, after suffering such a huge loss, will surely seek revenge after they return."
Zhou Yu smiled faintly.
"What’s there to fear."
"Still the same saying, soldiers will block, water will cover the soil."
"With Old Master Bai holding fort..."
Before Zhou Yu could finish,
The body of Bai Qishan fell rigidly to the ground.
The voices of the Bai Family members instantly melded into a chorus as they rushed frantically toward Bai Qishan!
