Chapter 155: Need to be taught a lesson

Lu Jiu used her wings to land on the ground, walked towards the group of people, and looked around them. Although they were angry, they did not dare to take action. At this juncture, they did not want to be expelled from the city-state, and they did not want to leave Xuantian City.

There were not many city-states in the Jinjiang District with such low prices and a stable urban environment.

Lu Jiu paused for a moment before stopping and said: “You can leave if you want, but my two teammates, you need to pay for their loss of equipment.”

As she spoke, she took out the shield and waved it in front of them. There was still a hole in the area where it had been shot.

The captain simply took out a silver coin and said: “Here you go.”

Lu Jiu did not pick it up but glanced at the captain: “You guys, let’s discuss it and offer a total of 100 tempering fruits. Then I will let you leave.”

The captain’s face changed: “You’re going too far. Even if we rob your wild monster, it won’t cost so much money.”

Moreover, the tempering fruit was so precious that they were still reluctant to use it.

Lu Jiu chuckled: “That’s the price today. If you don’t owe us anything, I won’t provoke you. If you don’t give me these, we will fight with you.”

The male archer stepped forward and shouted angrily: “Why? Do you want to kill us? Why don’t you look at how many of you there are, and how many of us there are.”

Lu Jiu put her hands behind her back and chuckled: “I’m not interested in killing people, but we will follow you all the time and snatch your wild monsters. Now the city regulations prohibit attacking residents, but it doesn’t say you can’t attack wild monsters.”

“But if you keep doing this, we will report it to the city lord and ask for you to be expelled from the city.”

Lu Jiu raised an eyebrow. She could report it, but he didn’t show it on her face: “You were the one who started it. You either pay compensation or we will pester you. As for whether to evict you or not, it’s not your turn to say.”

She does not intend to let go of those who provoke her anymore. As long as someone dares to provoke them, they should pay the corresponding price.

Even if the reputation of the city lord of Xuantian City has not spread yet, she, Lu Jiu, should not be provoked by other teams in the city.

The male archer was still unconvinced and pointed at Lu Jiu and was about to continue scolding him. However, their captain stopped him and said: “That’s enough. Whoever suggested coming here will pay for the 100 tempering fruits.”

The male archer only stopped at this moment. Because it was not him who suggested coming over to “take a look”, but another person.

As long as he doesn’t have to take out the tempering fruit, that’s fine.

The mentioned teammate turned pale instantly. Although it was his suggestion, the captain also agreed: “Captain, although I said this, without your consent, how could others follow?”

Moreover, the habit of watching other teams fight wild monsters was brought up by the captain. They, the team members, have tasted the benefits and continue to carry forward this tradition.

Lu Jiu was not in a hurry, just watching the dog bite the dog. Anyway, in the end, the tempered fruit must be given to her.

While arguing with the team members, the captain used her peripheral vision to observe Lu Jiu’s expression, just to see if the other party was impatient. Anyway, they wouldn’t come out with anything for a while, so she wouldn’t do anything.

Over there, Shen Jufeng and Zhuang Yun had already eliminated twelve mobs and hid their weapons, so they just walked over.

Shen Jufeng looked a little impatient, and his tone was slightly cold: “You haven’t given it yet, what are you talking about?”

“They’re still wasting time, but I’m not in a hurry. They all have to go back to the city anyway. After they go back, I have to ask if anyone else has been robbed by them.”

The strength of the teams in the city was uneven, and not every team had the confidence to make an explanation after being robbed by wild monsters.

For example, if they were stronger than the opponent, they could keep an eye on them to grab monsters.

Zhuang Yun looked at this group of people with cold eyes and waved his giant sword a few times with no expression on his face: “They like snatching the wild monsters. From now on, we will take care of all their wild monsters.”

The captain who was arguing with his teammates almost slipped in anger. Finally, he couldn’t help it anymore: “If you want to grab it, it depends on your strength and luck.”

Lu Jiu was not angry, but smiled and said: “Okay, we get up very early every day anyway. When we come back this time, we will go back and publicize your shameless behavior. We will pay anyone willing to watch your group for us. Whenever you leave the city, we will follow you. I believe many people will be happy to earn extra money.”

The captain was so angry that he was gritting his teeth. They had robbed several teams of wild monsters before, as well as some temporary teams. The people they offended always remembered them.

They can avoid being watched by these three people, but they cannot avoid being watched by dozens or even hundreds of people.

Shen Jufeng said calmly: “100 tempering fruits are already very kind to teach you a lesson. How about we go back and unite with other victims to accompany you to clear the wild? Not to mention how long it will take, at least you won’t be able to get the rewards from wild monsters this winter.”

Anyway, the three of them can afford it.

The captain gritted his teeth and said, “We will give it!”

They were not worried about three people, but if there were dozens of people combined, they would not be able to bear it.

In the end, the captain had to give Lu Jiu 100 tempered fruits. Lu Jiu did not regret it. She looked at the number and left. Before leaving, she said: “You are lucky today, the three of us will let you go.”

The small team was left standing on the spot.

Lu Jiu gave thirty-three to each of her two teammates, and took one more for himself, “Oh, I didn’t expect to get 100 more tempered fruits today.”

This was enough for the pharmacy manager to refine a lot of elixirs.

Shen Jufeng and Zhuang Yun were both in a good mood. The most important thing was to see the changes in Lu Jiu. In the past, she would probably just ask for money, but today she even asked for the tempered fruit.

Shen Jufeng gently stroked the round-tempered fruit a few times, then put it away.

Zhuang Yun was curious: “But we’ll just let go of these people? I heard them quarreling just now. They’ve done this kind of thing not only once or twice before. It was fine before, but in the past 2 or 3 months, everyone has become self-conscious. When they see other people fighting wild monsters, they stay far away.”

These days, whether others see them farming or they see others playing against each other, they consciously leave.

Lu Jiu tossed up the purple fruit and caught it steadily: “As I said, the three of us let them go, but it doesn’t mean that others will let them go.”

The two teammates understood what she meant. As long as they were not fighting nearby, it would not be a bad thing to seek appropriate compensation.

After returning to the city-state, Lu Jiu told Yao Bingan about this. This girl was not good at anything else, but she was very popular and knew many people on the team.

What she means is that people who have been robbed of wild monsters can unite to seek compensation. If this trend cannot be encouraged, such people must be allowed to stumble.

Yao Bingan was relieved when she understood her meaning and immediately spread the news among professional residents.

The team slowly returned to the city later. Unexpectedly, they were surrounded as soon as they came back. The captain thought these people would grab their money!

The captain felt his eyes go dark, those three people didn’t mean what they said!

They said they would let them go, but in the end, they encouraged others to seek compensation from them.

They were blinded by 100 tempered fruits in vain!

However, Lu Jiu and the others achieved their goal. At least these people will no longer dare to rob the wild monster of citizens of Xuantian City.
