"Disciple, we have received the protection money."

The whole time ever since Liang Chen entered the palace the Wu Princess had hated it, but to achieve their goals she had endured it.

She endured and endured, but the moment he said those things, she could no longer hold it within herself.

She tried to attack but was simply caught by the hem of her clothes and then thrown into the air.

She tried to control the momentum but was simply unable to do so.

Liang Chen grabed her and then hugged her and dragged her away.

While Liang Chen was doing that, the Wu emperor tried to stop him. He rushed at him and unleashed his full power in a single strike.

Sensing Wu emperor approaching to attack him, Liang Chen sighed and said.

"Aish, owing money to someone and then trying to attack them. Why must you put me in a tough spot father in law? Usually when you owe money to someone, if you try to retaliate or run, we simply just give you a beating. So father in law, don't blame me for giving you a beating."

After saying that, Liang Chen simply lifted one finger and pointed at Wu emperor.

Then a fierce spear light shone and ripped through the air as it attacked pierced one of his arms.

"Argh!" The Wu emperor groaned in pain and was then sent tumbling in the floor.

He tried to ger back up, but was simply attacked by another spear light.

This time the spear light went right through his right leg, and the Wu emperor screamed in pain.

His eyes shone with a furious light as he tried to circulate his Ki and summon the ancestors, but before he could do so, Liang Chen simply pointed yet another finger at him, and his Ki began to strangely scatter.

This shocked him for a few moments, but it didn't take long before he realized that Liang Chen had simply filled the area with his Spear Ki, and whenever he tried to use his own Ki, that Spear Ki would simply destroy it.

He clenched his teeth until blood came out from his mouth. He tried to struggle but couldn't.

Watching until this point, Wu Xiu clenched his fists tighly and he spoke.

"How much are they owing you?"

Having heard him, Liang Chen paid attention to him. For a long time of ignoring him, Liang Chen had become used to doing so, and so he did that unintentionally, but it was not like he would start paying attention to him for no reason at all.

But apparently this was one reason to pay him attention.

He turned at full speed, and then put on a dignified and serious look on his face and said.

"It had been a few years since they paid. Mhhm, let me see. The last time they paid was when you were born, so lets say 20 years or so."

Having heard his first sentences, Wu Xiu was fully prepared to give him a few items, but never did he expect that the man would be so shameless to the point of saying that they did not pay since he was born 20 years ago, and he was clearly not even a complete adolescent, much less 20. He did not even have any sort of physical feature that would indicate him to be so old.

Yet Liang Chen clearly ignored that point. He simply extended his right hand at him, while grabbing the Wu princess that was still struggling and trying to break free within his left hand.

Seeing this, Wu Xiu clenched his teeth and thoughy that since in the begining this man had only said he was his disciple for no apparent reason at all, after being claimed that he was his son.

He knew that Liang Chen was not that stupid. At that time it was simply a foolish action his mother had taken to try and keep hidden the Wu Empire's actions and plans.

And clearly the man had never even considered to treat him any way different than everyone else.

He took out a few treasures and medicinal pills from his space bag and threw them at Liang Chen.

Liang Chen simply caught them and began to laugh.

"Father in law, son, why don't we go and drink something. I am pokr so I have no money to pay, so onr of you will have to pay for it. Don't worry about your mother, ahh, son. She was simply playing along to teach you something."

Hearing his words, Wu Xiu trembled in rage but kept quiet. At this point it was dangerous to anger this man, and make him go rampage in the palace, where all of their plans were laid out.

The Wu emperor ignored him as well as he trembled in rage.

Being ignored, Liang Chen simply threw the Wu princess at Wu Xiu and talked at the top of his lungs while using his cultivation power to boast his voice.

"Disciple we have received the protection money. So now we will go collect from other places. It was about time that you learned to route."
