Chapter 4116 - 4135: Once You Enter, Don’t Even Think About Leaving
"Yes, I’m unwilling."Lin Chen didn’t beat around the bush, nodded neatly, and directly admitted.
"As you said, the Federation officials are conducting systematic research on the cultivation world. The main theme is based on absorption and integration. Once this process is completed smoothly, Lost Ball 235 may become a special intention of the Federation."
"Mr. Wei is talking about a business deal, a big business of selling the entire cultivation world. Although I am not considered a manager of the cultivation world now, I carry the name of the Heaven Deity. Selling them to gain my own interests is something I cannot do."
Wei Bo Fei said solemnly, "If a person does not think for themselves, the heavens will destroy them. I have understood your experiences of coming to the Federation. If your value hadn’t been discovered by the Federation first, your world would have been directly sanitized."
"You have already earned a living path for the entire world. They should be grateful to you. So, what’s wrong with making a big profit using them?"
"As I understand it, your cultivation world is survival of the fittest, powerhouses rule. The weak are like ants, life and death all in the hands of the strong. Do you still have sympathy for them?"
Lin Chen replied calmly, "Actually, you don’t need to find us. If your Wei Family has the ability, you would acquire the required procedures, and after gaining the authority to dispose of it, you could do as you wish. You are free to contact whoever, even in the name of business. There are definitely many people in our world eager to cooperate with you."
"They are not Heaven Deities."
Wei Bo Fei straightforwardly responded, "The Heaven Deity is their supreme respected one and leader. If you were merely a Heaven Deity, I might have gone to find other Heaven Deities. But among the eighteen Heaven Deities, your family accounts for half. The remaining half are either your friends or compelled by the situation to listen to you. Who else should I find?"
Lin Chen shook his head, decisively refusing, "I don’t want to do this. I’m not interested in money. Can one spend so much? Selling my world for a pile of numbers makes the money ridiculous even in my hands."
Seeing Lin Chen was unyielding, Wei Bo Fei’s face suddenly looked a bit unpleasant.
"Mr. Lin, is it unwilling to be friends with the Wei Family?"
Lin Chen chuckled, "The Wei Family’s threshold is too high. My legs are too short to cross it. You should find someone else."
In a strong tone, Wei Bo Fei stated, "If the Wei Family wants to make a friend, no one dares to refuse. Mr. Lin, I advise you to think thrice."
Lin Chen raised his chin, the smile on his face withdrew, and stared calmly at Wei Bo Fei, "Such a friend, I refuse."
Wei Bo Fei glared at Lin Chen with a grim expression, "Do you know your current situation?"
Lin Chen leaned back, resting on the chair, "Dragon’s Lair? What, if we don’t have this meal or agree to be friends, we can’t leave?"
Wei Bo Fei nodded frankly, "Yes, no one can refuse a proposal from the Wei Family. If you insist on refusing, you might indeed not get out."
Lin Chen’s expression remained unchanged, with a light laugh, "So what methods have you prepared?"
Wei Bo Fei stared at Lin Chen, speaking in a low tone, "I know you all possess the unique ability to leap through the stars and can escape far at any time. But not only is this Lake Heart Island completely surrounded by security mechanisms, but space is also shielded here. Your star-leaping ability might not work."
Lin Chen sneered, "So you’re planning to use force. This is your Wei Family’s center. Aren’t you afraid that if a real fight breaks out, everything here will be razed to the ground?"
Wei Bo Fei boasted with confidence, "The defenses around Lake Heart Island are tight. Let alone you all, even a Level 9 Martial Artist might not be able to break the defenses here."
"Even if a real fight breaks out, at most, all the buildings on the island will be leveled, but so what? The Wei Family has money. Once the fight is over, it can be rebuilt in a few days, and everything will be as good as new."
"I forgot to tell you, others may think this Lake Heart Island is the center of the Wei Family’s power. While that’s true, it’s also missing one detail."
"This Lake Heart Island is a highly sophisticated battlefield. Once inside, getting out is quite difficult."
Lin Chen’s expression didn’t change, showing no fear in his eyes, "No matter whether this is a battlefield or whatever, isn’t Mr. Wei also here? If Mr. Wei isn’t afraid, why should we be?"
Wei Bo Fei laughed heartily, "You mean to say you think you can manipulate me and use it as leverage?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "Isn’t it possible? You’re alone, while we are quite a few."
Wei Bo Fei stated confidently, "Mr. Lin, from what you’ve said, it seems your strength has been promoted. A Level 8 Martial Artist’s confidence, right?"
Lin Chen asked, "What level are you, Mr. Wei?"
Wei Bo Fei smiled, "Level 9."
Lin Chen was startled. This guy is actually a Level 9 Martial Artist!
However, on second thought, if he weren’t so powerful, how could he lead such a vast Wei Family?
As a prominent family within the Federation official system, it’s apparent how getting a Divine Descent Potion wouldn’t be too hard for him.
No wonder the opponent is so confident, dining with our group alone, originally because he trusts in his strength.
Nine versus eight, with surrounding defense systems allowing him to fight freely, definitely holds an absolute advantage.
If we force it, we, just having been promoted to level eight, are undoubtedly not a match for him alone.
"No wonder Mr. Wei is so confident. It seems today the Wei Family is bent on having us."
Wei Bo Fei nodded, speaking arrogantly, "Yes, from the moment you stepped onto Lake Heart Island, all your hidden cards were rendered useless. Your lives are in my hands. If I were to kill you, you’d vanish without a trace, and no one would notice."
Lin Chen stayed silent for two seconds, "Even if I agree to your terms, how can you trust me to not run away once we exit this door?"
Wei Bo Fei smiled, "You cultivators have means to control others’ lives and deaths. With our Federation’s technology, we naturally can accomplish this too. Did you forget that no matter how strong you were back then, you were still captured and shackled with restraints around your neck?"
Lin Chen retorted, "Are you planning to shackle us again?"
Wei Bo Fei nodded, "If you had agreed the first time, I might have considered not shackling you. But since you’ve shown your stance, I have no choice but to consider it. After all, you’re elusive, and if you really go mad, our Wei Family might not withstand the chaos."
Lin Chen laughed and said, "So all talk of apology is a guise, and cooperation is fake. Your real intention is to induct us as dogs, using our money from selling out, giving us a bit, and letting us work for you..."
