Shen Tian took a deep breath and walked in the middle of the two groups,"I think we've had enough of this, Shen Yue apologize to Nie Li, I don't think anyone appreciates being beaten to death, and give him some compensation."
Du Ze, Lu Piao and the rest, who had already walked in front of Nie Li, were smirking, the thought of Shen Yue apologizing was filling them with happiness already, the boy himself was gnashing his teeth.
Shen Yue started to point his finger at Shen Tian and yell," Shen Tian, I did not do anything wrong, this man here is scamming us, and fooling you all! He was the one beating my men!" Shen Tian rolled his eyes.
He walked towards Shen Yue, raised his hand, formed a fist and punched him, sending him flying away,"Grow up already!. Shen Yue, this world is not only glory city nor it is just the sacred family"
Shen Yue was rendered speechless, it had been a very long time since Shen Tian had decided to teach a lesson to him, however, the moment he looked into Shen Tian's eyes, he felt his old fear resurface.
Nie Li raised an eyebrow, at the sheer fear Shen Yue was expressing, that was not a simple fear of someone being stronger than you, it was far deeper than that, he had seen it a few times before.
The crowd started to murmur, noticing the bad relationship between the two, a single glare from Shen Tian made all of them go silent though, and they opened a path for Shen Yue to leave, however he was grabbed from behind by Shen Tian.
Shen Yue groaned, and looked at Nie Li who had a visible smirk on his face,'I don't want to apologize to such a bastard like him, I'd rather die!.... However, I don't to face Shen Tian's wrath either.'
"I… Apologize." Shen Yue muttered lowly, gaining a chuckle from Nie Li,"Please say it with a higher voice, I could understand what you were saying." Shen Yue glared at Nie Li before snorting," I apologize,Nie Li, I was in the wrong here
"Now… For the compensation, I expect a million Demon Spirit Coins in my balance by tomorrow." Nie Li smirked, gaining a growl from Shen Yue, who was about to refuse, but a glare by Shen Tian made him stop, frozen in place.
"With the Sacred Family's finances, you can easily afford one million Demon Spirit Coins." Shen Tian whispered to Shen Yue who frowned, the Sacred Family could easily take a million ten years ago, but now?
At the moment, the Sacred Family's business was slowly decaying, most old partners, had already switched to the Divine Family or the Snow Wind Family, if not the Scout Division and the Alchemy Association.
Shen Yue, did have some money saved up, after all his allowance was quite high, but to fork out a million Demon Spirit Coins, without the help of the family, would almost dry his entire balance out.
Xiao Ning'er looked from a corner, satisfied with Shen Tian's process of doing this, maybe she had judged him wrongly, after all he did seem to help his friends when they were in a bad position, even if it meant fighting his own cousin.
Her heart slightly softened.
Suddenly, a few shouts escaped the crowd, Ye Sheng, the Vice Principal had arrived, after noticing that Shen Yue had left, and all who was left in the scene was Shen Tian and Nie Li he did not interrupt the situation.
Instead his eyes meet Shen Tian's and he immediately understood that he shouldn't interrupt the moment, and simply ignored it,"It seems to have been solved already." He said and then left the scene.
~~
This, became the talk of the Holy Orchid Institute for a very long time, however Shen Yue and Nie Li merely ignored it, and even decided not to talk to each other, merely gaze at each other with anger.
Three days after this, Chen Linjian was waiting at the library, Ye Ziyun,Nie Li,Xiao Ning'er and Shen Yue were already there, while Shen Tian and Feng Hao were a bit late due to an issue they had.
After they came, the expedition started, Shen Tian could count at least about forty to fifty people in total, there were Bronze Rank Demon Spiritualists, and even Silver Rank Demon Spiritualists in their rank.
The trip to the Ancient Orchid City Ruins, would take about five to six days, with their numbers it might even take a bit more, however they did not lack time at all, and they could rest along the way to there anyway.
Shen Yue looked at Nie Li with hatred, this time Shen Tian did not bother to correct the boy, he was not Nie Li's caretaker, he could take care of himself, he was far stronger than Shen Yue after all.
After walking for around ten to twelve hours in the rough mountain road, the night had reached them, they were close to a forest, so Chen Linjian decided to have the expedition team rest there for tonight.
Shen Tian set up a tent together with Feng Hao, separate from the rest, since he was comfortable with the boy, who already knew what kind of a cultivation technique he cultivated. He could just let his Shadow Clones cultivate, but to fake an appearance, he had to cultivate a bit at least.
He did not mind it at all, since it also helped him relax his mind, and keep his focus always there. Feng Hao, had already stepped into the peak of the Silver Rank, the technique he was given by Shen Tian suited him perfectly.
Nie Li first wanted to join the two, but after a look of consideration, decided it would be better for him to camp alone, and set up his tent far away, where he would be alone, and could cultivate in silence.
He wanted to cultivate, and also integrate his Demon Spirit, he had gained a mysterious pot from the Black Market, it would probably cost far more in the usual auction houses, so he was lucky, and using it he had created A God Level Growth Demon Spirit.
Xiao Ning'er had joined Ye Ziyun and were camping together with several other girls, she had decided to join the expedition party to the Ancient Orchid City Ruins, because she felt she could get something there.
She also wanted to view… Shen Tian from a closer look, he was not as simply as his appearance suggested, he had created several projects for the city, and was an esteemed alchemist of the Alchemy Association.
