Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At this moment, Lu Zijia seemed to have thought of something and added, “Right, it’s not 100 million for two people, but 100 million each.”
That would be a total of 200 million.
Coupled with the fines of Jiang Wei and the others, it added up to 350 million.
Tsk, tsk, it didn’t cost a single soldier. Apart from the few “laborers” in the form of the golden pagoda and the others, there was almost no cost. This business was simply too awesome!
She was really a very successful businessman!
Lu Zijia was satisfied with this deal, but Dong Liu and Mu Kerui almost fainted on the spot.
“Master… Master Lu, we really know we’re wrong. Please give us a chance!” Dong Liu said as he kowtowed to Lu Zijia with a bang, his voice not faking it at all.
Mu Kerui also forced his body, which was about to faint, to kowtow to Lu Zijia and beg for mercy sincerely.
“Master Lu, we’re just from a small family clan. Even if we sell ourselves, we can’t take out 100 million! Master Lu, we’re really in the wrong. Please, please let us go this time. We’re willing to swear on our mental demons that there won’t be a next time.”
Even though the people below the city wall couldn’t see the situation on the city wall clearly, they could hear Dong Liu and the others kowtowing and begging bitterly.
Many female cultivators couldn’t help feeling a bit sympathetic.
“Master Lu, they’re beginners after all. Perhaps they really made a mistake in a moment of confusion. You didn’t lose anything now, and they’ve already been taught a lesson. Why don’t you just let it go?”
A gentle-looking female cultivator in a light yellow dress persuaded Lu Zijia reluctantly.
After someone started, the people behind naturally became smoother.
“That’s right, Master Lu. You have nothing to lose anyway. Why do you have to be so ruthless?”
“They were just greedy for a moment. Their crimes don’t deserve death. If they can’t pay the fine, we can’t kill them, right?”
“That’s right, Master Lu. Why don’t we let them go this time? If there’s a next time, we won’t tolerate them anymore.”
The female cultivators said one after another, looking like they wanted to help Lu Zijia decide.
As for the clear-minded cultivators, they silently distanced themselves from the self-righteous female cultivators.
Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan made such a big fuss today obviously because they wanted to make an example out of them. If they let the two thieves go just like that, wouldn’t they be telling everyone that it wasn’t a big deal to steal the air-transportation spiritual weapon?
This way, more and more people would definitely have designs on air-transportation spiritual weapons in the future.
After all, even if the truth was exposed, they wouldn’t lose money, let alone their lives. At most, they would be reprimanded and beaten up a few times. It wasn’t a big deal.
In that case, why not take a gamble?
So, in order to avoid what happened above, Lu Zijia and the others definitely wouldn’t let the remaining two thieves go easily.
Seeing that Lu Zijia didn’t reply for a long time, the female cultivators under the city wall couldn’t help feeling a bit complacent secretly, thinking that she was persuaded.
But before they said anything else, Lu Zijia, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
“Friends, you must be kind-hearted to say this.”
Lu Zijia smiled at a few female cultivators at the Qi practicing realm or the Foundation Establishment realm, as if she appreciated them very much.
Seeing that Lu Zijia, the famous master, really spoke to them, the female cultivators were immediately excited in their minds and an obvious blush appeared on their faces.
