It wasn't convenient to talk in detail outside, so I had to lead them into the main hall.
Chen Yue had just finished tidying up and thoughtfully handed over three cups of tea.
"Chen Yue, you can leave now." Su Feng waved for Chen Yue to leave first. Once only the three of them were left in the hall, he spoke, "No need to beat around the bush. Tell me, what exactly do you want?"
"Oh dear, how could Young Master Su not believe me?" Qian Kai raised an eyebrow and smiled, feigning concern. "I did indeed witness Young Master Su's abilities the other day, and I was truly amazed, which is why I took the liberty of visiting you..."
"That day, Young Master Su used his Taoist arts and incantations to kill the Corpse Refining Sect disciple with great power and prestige! He even used profound spells to subdue the demonic ape! I was quite astonished at the time! I never expected that this small Renjia Town would be full of hidden talents, with such a capable person as Young Master Su!"
Qian Kai's words were true, and his description was vivid and lifelike. In the end, he even let loose and started dancing around.
The more excited he became, the more Su Feng frowned.
Such flowery words would undoubtedly sound like praise to anyone else, but only Su Feng understood that they were a blatant threat!
"Young Master Su's dashing figure is truly unforgettable! Speaking of which, if I had the chance, I would like to share a drink with Young Master Su, discuss Taoist arts, and exchange insights—"
The sinister smile on Qian Kai's face grew wider and wider.
Su Feng took a deep breath and said directly, "I hate nonsense the most. Just say what you want to say."
Qian Kai then stopped his endless "praise" of Su Feng, stretched out one hand, and rubbed three fingers back and forth, "I recently came to Renjia Town and found it extremely peaceful. I can't get any business, and I can't even find a simple house with tiled roof. It's really difficult..."
"I've heard that Young Master Su is charitable and extremely generous. I wonder if he would be willing to lend me some money? If Young Master Su ever gets into trouble in the future, I will definitely help him out without hesitation!"
After hearing Qian Kai's words, Su Feng finally understood.
Good heavens! This is blackmail!
Having witnessed the scene of his fight with the feng shui master that day, and after learning that the feng shui master was a disciple of the Corpse Refining Sect, he used this reason to blackmail him for money!
It seems the movie wasn't wrong; this guy really is despicable and shameless!
"So it's about money..." Su Feng narrowed his eyes slightly. "So how much money does Master Qian intend to ask for?"
"Hey, hey, hey, I don't want money, I want sponsorship! It's different, it's different." Qian Kai grinned, spreading his hands in front of him. "One hundred thousand silver dollars."
One hundred thousand?
Su Feng almost burst out laughing.
"Are you crazy? How dare you ask for 100,000?"
“You can’t say that,” Qian Kai slowly sat down and said softly, in a voice only Su Feng could hear, “This 010 silver dollars can save Young Master Su a lot of trouble…”
"Think about it, if the Corpse Refining Sect finds out that Young Master Su killed their fellow disciples in the banana grove, these ruthless and inhuman desperados will definitely seek revenge against you..."
“At that time, not only will Young Master Su be in danger, but everyone in this house will also suffer... So spending 100,000 to avert disaster is not a bad deal.”
Qian Kaizao had already calculated this clearly.
The Corpse Refining Sect is such a terrifying sect, and its disciples are spread all over the world. There might even be a few in Renjia Town. If he were to reveal this information, Su Feng would surely face a deadly disaster.
Furthermore, the value of this armored corpse is comparable to that of gold, as it was nurtured for twenty years using the essence of the sun and moon!
Finally, there was the demon ape that had become a spirit.
The three items together amounted to 100,000 silver dollars, but Qian Kai still felt it wasn't enough.
"Are you threatening me?" Su Feng looked at him coldly, his tone carrying a hint of murderous intent.
“Tsk, Young Master Su, you misunderstand. How can this be a threat? This is pointing out a way out for you,” Qian Kai said, patting Su Feng’s shoulder with a seemingly earnest tone. “If other people in the cultivation world knew about this, they probably wouldn’t be able to resolve it even with money. This is the best option right now, so Young Master Su should think it over carefully.”
Looking closely at the greedy, insatiable face before him, Su Feng felt a surge of murderous intent.
The spiritual power in his body was also increasing wildly out of control.
These slight changes, of course, did not escape Qian Kai's notice.
"Hehe, it seems that Young Master Su wants to choose the most difficult path?" Qian Kai suddenly stopped smiling, his eyes darkened, and he said coldly.
His powerful aura surged and erupted at this moment.
Two similar yet distinct atmospheres collided in the hall.
Even though their bodies hadn't made physical contact yet, it felt like a tense atmosphere was about to escalate after a fierce battle.
After a moment of deep thought, Su Feng withdrew his killing intent and revealed a bright smile. "Master Qian, you misunderstand. I am a businessman. How could I not distinguish between advantages and disadvantages? Harmony brings wealth, that's the only way."
"Spending money to avoid trouble is definitely worth it."
What he said was not his true feeling.
It would be unwise to fight Qian Kai inside the mansion right now, especially since the opponent's cultivation level is not low, and he is not confident that he can defeat him in one blow.
The so-called knowing yourself and your enemy means you will be victorious in every battle.
Qian Kai is a disciple of Maoshan, and his strength is not weak; in fact, it could be said that he is very strong.
Once a fierce battle ensues, destroying the Su family mansion is a minor matter; what's truly serious is dragging in other unimportant people!
The best course of action now is to stall them as much as possible and get rid of this shameless guy.

Chapter Sixty-One: A Delaying Tactic! Subduing the Demon Ape!
"Young Master Su is indeed a smart man!"
Seeing that Su Feng had agreed, Qian Kai's eyebrows relaxed and his smile grew even wider.
But before he could be happy for long, Su Feng poured cold water on him.
"But... 100,000 silver dollars is no small sum, and I can't raise it all at once. The money exchange also requires all sorts of paperwork, which is really troublesome..."
Su Feng put on a worried look and spread his hands to indicate that there was nothing he could do.
Qian Kai was displeased, his expression changing in an instant. "Young Master Su, are you playing a trick on me?"
"Not at all, Master Qian is not very familiar with the rules of the local money exchange. It will indeed take a lot of time to make arrangements... How about this, I happen to have two hundred silver dollars on hand. I'll take care of Master Qian's food, clothing, and lodging first."
As he spoke, Su Feng took out two hundred silver dollars from his sleeve and placed them on the table.
Looking at the thick stack of money in the bag, Qian Kai's expression softened slightly, and he told his apprentice to take the money.
Sanyang held up the heavy two hundred silver dollars as if he were holding a mountain of gold and silver. His palms were burning hot, and his eyes were shining as he stared at it intently.
He'd never seen so much money in his entire life!
"Hehe, Young Master Su is indeed generous..." Qian Kai raised an eyebrow, but still wouldn't let it go, "Then how long will it take Young Master Su to raise the remaining money?"
"At most half a month."
"too long."
Su Feng's reply clearly did not satisfy Qian Kai. Seeing him frown again, he raised a finger and said, "I'll give Young Master Su a week."
Shortening the period from half a month to a week is a situation that most people would find difficult to accept.
Even Qian Kai was a little worried that his relentless pursuit might anger Su Feng.
To his surprise, Su Feng agreed without hesitation.
"Then it's settled. It will be seven days. Master Qian can come to my residence to collect the money then."
Su Feng wore a mysterious smile, which made Qian Kai feel uneasy.
Why would they be so quick to agree?
Not a single complaint?
Hmph—it seems he's nothing more than a cowardly scoundrel.
It seems his previous plan was indeed correct; as long as he could find something to hold over Su Feng, he could enrich himself.
"It's a deal then, we'll take our leave now."
Having gained a great advantage, Qian Kai no longer needed to make things difficult. After bowing respectfully, he swaggered away with his apprentice.
Stepping out of the Su residence, the disciple Sanyang, who had been on edge the whole time, finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Master, that really scared me to death! Su Feng looked so terrifying!"
Sanyang patted his chest, his heart still pounding wildly.
If his master hadn't been there to allow him to negotiate with Su Feng alone, he wouldn't have dared to do so!
"Look at your audacity, how will you make big money!" Qian Kai, on the other hand, felt completely at ease, walking with a brisk pace, and extremely cheerful.
"Master, I thought Su Feng would be difficult to deal with, how come he's so easy to talk to?"
Sanyang was puzzled and looked up to ask.
If, as Master said, Su Feng fought three opponents in the Banana Grove and defeated the Ironclad Corpse, the Demon Ape, and the Corpse Refining Sect disciple at the same time, then he must be a person with extremely profound cultivation.
I was thinking that we'd fight if they came to collect the money today, but it went so smoothly.
Upon hearing this, Qian Kai threw his head back and laughed. He took the money bag from San Yang's hand and shook it in his hand. "Su Feng is no fool to have gotten to where he is today."
"He knows how terrifying the Corpse Refining Sect is, so he wouldn't dare not pay this money."
Therefore, whether it's a week or half a month, as long as he still has leverage over Su Feng, it's like having a tap that can keep spewing money.
"What if Su Feng insists on not giving it and even tries to take action?" Sanyang asked again.
"Make a move?" Qian Kai's smile became even more sinister. "With his current cultivation level, how could he be a match for me! He'll be the one who suffers!"
Even if it came to a fight to the death, he was confident he could keep Su Feng alive and make him obediently return the money before he died.
In short, no matter the outcome, we must get our hands on those 100,000 silver dollars!
"Sanyang, you keep a close eye on things outside the Su residence for now, make sure Su Feng doesn't try anything funny. Once he hands over the money, we'll contact the Corpse Refining Sect and take the other side's money too."
Qian Kai patted San Yang on the shoulder and said earnestly, "This time, we, master and disciple, can finally hold our heads high!"
"Master's double-crossing was brilliant!"
"Hahaha, it's a fool not to take advantage of a good deal! I'm going to have Su Feng!"
Qian Kai's arrogant laughter attracted the attention of many pedestrians on the roadside.
Everyone was watching this "madman" who was walking around laughing loudly with his head tilted back.
After walking through the crowded streets, Qian Kai instructed Sanyang to take the money to book a room at the best inn nearby, while he himself was going to the Tan residence.
