"This... I understand." Zhao Chengchuan gritted his teeth and immediately understood what the person in front of him meant. He was trying to trick himself.

Either pay the money and the matter will end there; if not, the head of the Zhou family will judge it himself.

Zhao Chengchuan knew that this matter must not become a big deal. He had seen the head of the Zhou family with his own eyes. He was a man with deep thoughts and ruthless methods. I am afraid that he would never hold back in dealing with this matter, and the consequences would only be worse.

After thinking about it like this, Zhao Chengchuan gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, I am indeed at fault for this matter. I can compensate you with a sum of spiritual stones. I don't know what amount you think is appropriate."

Zhou Daocheng thought about it and said, "5,000 spirit stones."

"5000?" Zhao Chengchuan's eyes widened and he looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief. He never expected that the young man had such a big appetite.

"Sir, I'm afraid this number is too much. Our Zhao family is just a small Qi-refining clan, so I'm afraid we can't afford it!"

"This is your Zhao Chengchuan's business. If you can handle it, this matter will be settled. If you can't handle it, huh..."

At this moment, an untimely and honest voice sounded: "Daocheng son-in-law, I don't think Chengchuan did it intentionally, and 5,000 spirit stones is indeed too much. How about you let him go this time."

There was silence for three seconds!

Several people's faces turned red, including Zhou Daocheng, who looked like he had eaten shit, and the veins on his forehead couldn't stop pulsing.

Zhao Yunzhi couldn't help but hold his forehead, his chest heaved deeply, obviously he was very angry.

Zhao Chengchuan is also full of black threads. He is obviously trying to give me a leg up and wants to resolve it peacefully, but why the hell are you trying to get involved?

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Daocheng, Zhao Yunzhi, and Zhao Chengchuan almost said in unison:

"you shut up!"

Zhao Chengshan was so frightened that he took a step back, "You guys..."

Zhao Yunzhi couldn't bear it anymore. He grabbed his father and said with an apologetic look, "Daocheng, I'm sorry to bother you. I will kill my relatives right away. You are busy with your business."

When Zhao Chengshan was forcibly taken away, Zhou Daocheng breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhao Chengchuan and said, "We can continue."

Zhao Chengchuan also felt relieved, remained silent for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "5,000 spirit stones...that's fine, just five thousand spirit stones. I hope that the young master will keep his promise and this matter will be over. I, Zhao Chengchuan, am by no means a person with ulterior motives. I hope Young Master can rest assured."

Zhou Daocheng glanced at him meaningfully, and was secretly surprised. 5,000 spirit stones was not a small amount, especially for a small Qi-refining family like the Zhao family, which might have been accumulated over several years.

Being able to tell this number is enough to show Zhao Chengchuan's courage.

After deliberation for a few seconds, Zhou Daocheng remained calm and simply replied: "I, Zhou Daocheng, always speak my mind, and that ends here."

Zhao Chengchuan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the young man in front of him with slight approval. Unexpectedly, facing the huge wealth of 5,000 spirit stones, this man did not even blink.

This made him even more certain that the humble junior from the Zhou family with a "Dao" name in front of him was definitely extraordinary, which made him secretly curse the information for being inaccurate.

Originally, I thought that the two most outstanding people of the Zhou Jiadao generation were Zhou Daobai and Zhou Daoqi, but now it seems that is definitely not the case. The Zhou Daocheng in front of me is actually even more extraordinary.

As a strong man at the ninth level of Qi Refining, he could vaguely feel Zhou Daocheng's terrifying strength. Although he could not fully detect it, from the aura revealed, he knew that the young man in front of him was a strong man who was not weaker than him.

At least this is true from the perspective of the strength of the spiritual energy. It is extremely thick and long, no worse than the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Not only was his strength extremely terrifying, his demeanor and temperament were also far beyond those of his peers, which made him secretly surprised, and at the same time he couldn't help but be envious.

Among the descendants of the Zhou family, there were so many talented people at the same time, while the Zhao family only had a bunch of people with nothing but wine and rice bags. The difference was really huge.

At the same time, a question suddenly appeared in his mind, why didn't the head of the Zhou family marry Zhao Yunzhi to the generation Shouzi? Didn't you marry two Taoist geniuses? Instead, he chose Zhou Daocheng, who seemed to have ordinary qualifications?

Is it really a deliberate attempt to humiliate the Zhao family? Or maybe they think Zhao Yunzhi is not worthy of them?

A dignified genius with two spiritual roots, excellent appearance and talents, there is a high probability that this is not the reason.

There can only be one real reason: Zhou Daocheng, the true number one of the Zhou family, has talents and abilities that are not weaker than Zhao Yunzhi, and can truly suppress Zhao Yunzhi.

And judging from today's situation, Zhao Yunzhi was indeed suppressed to death, without any arrogance of a genius with two spiritual roots, and followed Zhou Daocheng like an ordinary little daughter-in-law.

With all the doubts in his mind cleared, Zhao Chengchuan looked at Zhou Daocheng with even more respect.

Zhou Daocheng naturally doesn't know what Zhao Chengchuan is thinking, but even if he knew, he would only give him four big words: You think too much!

Marrying someone of the Dao generation was because the family leader had confused the seniority; marrying him, Zhou Daocheng, was because he was afraid that Zhao Yunzhi would affect the better Dao Qi and Dao Bai, that's all.

Tens of minutes later, Zhao Chengchuan found a storage bag on the ground.

Zhou Daocheng took a casual look and saw the neatly arranged spiritual stones, emitting a bright light, which made people's hearts flutter.

"Forget it, this matter is over."

Zhou Daocheng did not stay long, and left the Zhao family directly without even caring about Zhao Chengshan and others.

No matter from which aspect, there was no need for him to have too much respect for Zhao Chengshan. There was a big difference in status, and Zhao Chengshan's weak and incompetent character also made Zhou Daocheng unable to have any respect.

Even for Zhao Yunzhi, the relationship with his father was not deep.

When he was young, Zhao Chengshan devoted all his energy to the family and lacked care for the family, which led to the death of Zhao Yunzhi's mother in an accident.

Later, due to various decision-making errors, Zhao Yunzhi, who did not protect the second spiritual root, was forced by the Ma family and finally had to sell his daughter to survive.

No wonder the Zhao family cultivators would pull him down and choose the more shrewd and decisive Zhao Chengchuan.

All the way back to the Zhou family.

Zhou Daocheng did not return to Bailin Lake directly, but looked at the storage bag full of spiritual stones, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

After hesitating for a long time, he still walked towards the inner hall of the family.

Standing outside the door, Zhou Daocheng frowned, and after thinking for a long time in his heart, he knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" The voice was long and heavy, with unparalleled majesty.

"Grandfather, it's me, Daocheng."

He can act recklessly in the Zhao family, but in the Zhou family, especially in front of the Zhou family patriarch, he is still a little scared.

On the one hand, because of his own blood and memory, he has a natural sense of awe.

On the other hand, it is also because the means and submission of the Zhou family patriarch are by no means comparable to Zhao Chengchuan and Zhao Chengshan, and the difference is far more than one level.
