The leader was not Xiao Yanhe, whom Gu Li and the others had met before, but a white-haired old man.

The old man was slightly hunched over, but he exuded an air of majesty that came from the accumulation of years.

Teng Lianqi narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Gu Li and the others with a sharp gaze: "What are you doing in our Tengyuan Sect from Xingchen Territory?"

Su Yiyun raised his chin slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction and ridicule in his eyes, and said loudly: "Aren't you asking questions knowingly?"

Teng Lianqi looked confused and at a loss, as if he had heard some Arabian Nights fairy tale.

In his understanding, Fujiwara clan and the Star Domain were very far apart and had nothing to do with each other. How could he suddenly be involved in such a strange thing?

He frowned, his eyes full of confusion, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Gu Li stared at Teng Lianqi and said, "Don't you know that your Tengyuan Sect has sent people to our Xingchen Region to cause trouble?"

Teng Lianqi eagerly defended himself, "Nonsense, I have never sent anyone to your Star Region."

Mu Yunxi then asked: "Isn't Zhongli one of your Teng Lianqi's people?"

Teng Lianqi became even more confused. He quickly searched for the information of people in the sect in his mind, but he couldn't remember anyone named Zhongli.

The elder beside him saw this and hurriedly reminded him softly, "Elder Xiao's disciple."

Teng Lianqi's eyes suddenly widened, his face turned red, and the anger in his heart suddenly surged up.

This piece of trash, knowing full well that the Star Domain is now in its prime, still sent people to provoke them.

Seeing only six people coming towards him, Fuji Renqi thought to himself that they probably didn't want to fight with Fujiwara Mune.

So, he suppressed his anger and said, "Zhongli is indeed a member of our Fujiwara clan, but he was not sent by me."

Lin Yuchen said calmly: "But he is from your Fujiwara clan."

Teng Lianqi sighed helplessly and said, "Come in and have a cup of tea first. I'll send someone to find out what's going on."

He leaned sideways and made a gesture of invitation, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

Gu Li responded readily: "Okay."

Teng Lianqi said, "Please come in."

Gu Li and the other six people showed no fear at all. They followed the Fujiwara clan's people into the sect with their heads held high.

Along the way, they looked around the surrounding environment, and soon they arrived at the hall for receiving guests.

Fujine Kei shouted to the attendant beside him, "Look at the tea."

Gu Li waved his hand and said, "No, we are not here for tea."

Hearing this, Teng Lianqi turned to look at the people around him and ordered, "Go and call Xiao Yanhe over."

At this moment, I was full of doubts and eager to find out what had happened.

A moment later, Xiao Yanhe hurried into the hall with an uneasy heart.

His steps were a little hurried and his eyes were wandering. When he saw Gu Li and the other six people, he became more and more uneasy and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Teng Lianqi frowned, his face full of anger, and asked loudly: "What's going on?"

The voice was as loud as a bell, echoing in the hall.

When Xiao Yanhe heard the news that they were coming to Fujiwara Sect, he knew that something was wrong.

He said with a stiff upper lip: "Master, why should we be afraid of them?"

When Teng Lianqi heard this, he was furious and shouted, "Asshole, who allowed you to stir up trouble privately?"

His eyes seemed to be spitting fire as he glared at Xiao Yanhe fiercely.

Gu Li raised his lips slightly, and said with a hint of sarcasm: "The other three families have sent ransoms, do you people from the Fujiwara clan still want some? Otherwise, we will kill them."

The implication is obvious. If Fujiwara no Mune does not cooperate, they will deal with Fujiwara no Mune as well.

Teng Lianqi could hear the hidden meaning in her words, but before he could open his mouth, Xiao Yanhe interrupted him in panic: "What did you say?"

His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that the other three companies had actually compromised.

How dare those people do something behind the scenes!

Mu Yunxi looked at Xiao Yanhe and said coldly: "Do you think they are on the same front with you?"

Xiao Yanhe was speechless when asked this question. He indeed thought so.

Seeing how confident they were at that time, who could have imagined that these people would betray him so easily.

His face turned pale and his body swayed slightly.

Seeing this, Fujiren Kei said without hesitation: "He is left to you to deal with. From now on, we in Fujiwara do not have this person."

"I'm sorry, Sect Master. I know I was wrong. Please save me." Xiao Yanhe begged for mercy quickly.

His face was full of fear, his legs went soft and he fell to his knees with a plop.

He knew in his heart that if he fell into the hands of these people, he would definitely be dead.

Another elder beside Teng Lianqi also shook his head helplessly and sighed: "I don't even know how to say hello to you."

There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes. Their Fujiwara clan has always been low-key and has not participated in external disputes. How come such a reckless person appeared this time and went to provoke other forces?

Xiao Yanhe kept kowtowing and begged bitterly, "I was really wrong, Sect Master, please save me."

There was a bloody mark on his forehead, but he didn't care at this moment.

He was filled with regret. He never thought that the people from the Star Domain would dare to come to his door even though they knew that the other four forces had sent people. He never expected that the other three forces would compromise so easily.

If he had known the result would be like this, he would never let his people provoke the Star Region.

Gu Li looked at Xiao Yanhe who was kneeling on the ground and said slowly, "I don't want your life, why are you in such a hurry?"

The calm tone made Xiao Yanhe feel even more uncertain.

Xiao Yanhe raised his head and asked uncertainly: "Really?"

Gu Li raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile, and said, "Of course."

Xi Zihan added, "It's a good deal to exchange your entire fortune for your life."

A lot of people have come to the Star Region recently, and they need a lot of money to make a living. Xiao Yanhe's wealth can just supplement them.

When Xiao Yanhe heard this, he almost vomited blood. He widened his eyes and protested loudly: "All of you, you are asking for too much."

Su Yiyun said sarcastically, "Your sect doesn't want you anymore!"

Lin Yuchen also echoed: "Then you will die."

Seeing this, the other elders also advised Xiao Yanhe: "Money is something outside of your body. What's the point of keeping money if you have lost your life?"

Xiao Yanhe's face was full of confusion and pain, his eyes were fixed on the ground, his teeth were clenched, his cheeks were slightly bulging due to the force, veins bulged on his forehead, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his cheeks.

After a long silence, he squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "I'll give it to you."
