Chapter 207: Chapter 205: Reply

"Prince, it’s terrible, terrible!" Just as Ruan Tiasheng was indulgently fantasizing about his wonderful future, Housekeeper Hu’s flustered voice echoed in his ears, and he pushed open the door of the study and walked in.

Housekeeper Hu anxiously looked at Ruan Tiasheng, "Prince, something terrible has happened!"

"Housekeeper Hu, are you seeking death?" Ruan Tiasheng was furious, his terrifying pressure bearing down on Housekeeper Hu, who instantly broke into a profuse sweat, his eyes filled with horror.

Enduring the pain in his heart, Housekeeper Hu spoke loudly, "Prince, I deserve to die, but please let me finish speaking before you grant me death."

Ruan Tiasheng calmed down immediately upon seeing Housekeeper Hu’s urgency. If it were not for some grave matter, Housekeeper Hu would never have the audacity to barge into his study without his permission.

Ruan Tiasheng frowned and looked at Housekeeper Hu, "Speak, what is it? If it’s not a matter of life and death, then your life will be forfeited here today!"

Housekeeper Hu said, "Prince, someone has passed the death challenge in the arena and has swept away Master Lee, Grandmaster Chen, and others!"

"Oh?" After hearing Housekeeper Hu’s words, Ruan Tiasheng’s eyes flashed with surprise, but he remained composed, "If someone passed, they passed, is a prince of the Dragon Country unable to come up with a reward of ten billion?"

If it were any other time, Ruan Tiasheng would indeed feel the pinch of having to produce a whopping ten billion, but now the situation was different. Even a single medium-quality spirit stone from the hundreds in front of Ruan Tiasheng was worth several billion, up to ten billion; to him, the mere billion in rewards was nothing to worry about.

But Housekeeper Hu said urgently, "Prince, if it were only about ten billion, I wouldn’t have hurried over like this. That person who passed the challenge has also placed a bet—he wagered ten billion that he would succeed in the death challenge!"

"What! Ten billion?" In an instant, Ruan Tiasheng’s complexion changed dramatically, and he stood up sharply, looking very troubled. The odds of winning ten consecutive matches were one to one hundred, a rule set by Ruan Tiasheng himself, so he knew very well. A bet of ten billion meant that he would have to pay out a staggering one trillion to Ye Feng.

One should realize that was a trillion we’re talking about, even if everything in the Prince Mansion were sold off, it might not cover it.

The only certain way to cover it would be to sell all the spirit stones and Spiritual Liquids.

"Housekeeper Hu, are you calling them fools? Can you not discern a person’s strength, so much so that such a strong individual was allowed to sign up? Are Master Lee and Grandmaster Chen fools too, unable to see it?"

Enraged, Ruan Tiasheng yelled loudly, his face flushing red and looking quite unsightly.

Housekeeper Hu was incredibly helpless, "Prince, we simply couldn’t tell, he is a young man, and according to the information on his passport, he is only twenty-six years old. How could we have imagined he would be so powerful?"

"What! Twenty-six?" Ruan Tiasheng was stunned, the defeat of Master Lee and the others by Ye Feng meant that Ye Feng must be at least at the Grandmaster level of strength.

But the youngest grandmaster in the world was said to have only reached grandmaster status in their forties.

No one would think a young man in his twenties could be a grandmaster-level powerhouse.

There was a rule in the arena that people over the age of forty-five were not allowed to take on the death challenge, so it was essentially considered an impossible challenge.

That’s why the rate of one to one hundred was set, but now there appeared a youth in his twenties.

"Prince, what should we do now?" Housekeeper Hu asked Ruan Tiasheng.

Ruan Tiasheng spoke with a dark expression, "Tell him to attend the princess’s enthronement ceremony. We will arrange for him to sit in the VIP area, and I will also present his reward during the ceremony."

"Okay, I understand!" Housekeeper Hu replied, and then he returned to the arena.

In the arena, Ye Feng sat leisurely under the stage in the spectating area, with Liu Mu holding an umbrella for him, shielding him from the sun.

Ye Feng looked at the host, "When will I get my reward?"

The host revealed an awkward smile, "Our leader has gone to find the Prince. Please wait a moment, he will be back soon and give you a personal response."

"Hurry up, I’m not a patient man," Ye Feng said indifferently.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng’s lips curled into a smile, and he said to Liu Mu, "Liu Mu, do you think they will obediently bring out all the money?"

Liu Mu shook his head, "How could they? The Dragon Country is just a small country; where would a Prince find so much money? Heavenly Monarch, I don’t understand; if you wanted to take things, with your strength, why not just go there and kill them? Why waste time and make such a roundabout effort?"

Ye Feng smiled subtly, "Don’t forget, this time I am here to collect debts in my personal capacity. I warned Ruan Xiaoyu that if she revealed the secret, she would pay a severe price. If I were to directly go there to kill, the Dragon Country would certainly be targeted by other enemy countries using it as an excuse. The best way to bring down a large family is to make them bankrupt!

I won the contest fair and square in the arena. If Ruan Tiasheng wants to default, I can kill him, and by then, it will all be aboveboard, leaving those who have been eyeing me covetously with no excuses to target me."

Liu Mu, suddenly realizing, nodded excitedly, as if he could already see the downfall of the Prince Mansion.

After a short while, Housekeeper Hu arrived at the arena and walked towards Ye Feng.

When Housekeeper Hu appeared, everyone fell silent. With Ye Feng having bet ten billion, it was something everyone knew, and they all wanted to see how the Prince Mansion would handle this matter.

Looking at Ye Feng, Housekeeper Hu put on a smile, "Respected Mr. Ye Feng, our Prince has said that since you have won, you will not lose out on your reward. The Prince has invited you to observe Princess Ruan Xiaoyu’s enthronement ceremony, where he will present the reward to you."

"Oh? Well, then, that’s fine," Ye Feng nodded lightly, not the least bit worried.

However, Ruan Tiasheng was already arranging a deadly plot, preparing to assassinate Ye Feng.
