Volume 141 The Price of One's Life

  "Don't worry, as long as you tell me the location and where to put it, I'll let Zhen go get it. Once we have the spiritual artifact in hand, I'll immediately let you two out." Dongfang Fengfei said, having expected them to say something like this.

  Hearing that the only way out was also cut off, everyone resigned themselves to their fate. Several madams had been staying at the Dongfang family for so long and still had a few low-grade spiritual instruments, but they could only save themselves and not their daughters and sons, and could only anxiously wait outside.

  At the sight of the spiritual instrument in front of her, Dongfang Feng's saliva almost dripped down. These could be sold for a lot of gold coins! She seemed to see a mountain of gold piled up in front of her eyes.

  If others knew Dongfang Fengfei's thoughts, they would definitely clasp their chest and stamp their feet, scolding Dongfang Fengfei as a prodigal son. Can the value of a spiritual artifact be measured by gold coins?!

  Looking at the people who had not yet come out, Dongfang Fengyi's eyes rolled around and said: "Master of the Dongfang family, aren't you a kind father? How is it that these are all your good sons and daughters, and you don't take out a spiritual artifact to save them?"

  Only those with good innate talent can receive the reward of spiritual artifacts, while among Dongfang Hong's children, there are also some who have mediocre qualifications and naturally do not qualify to receive the reward of spiritual artifacts.

  When they heard Dongfang Fengyi's words, all the young masters and ladies who were at a loss looked at Dongfang Hong with hopeful eyes. They knew that in the Dongfang manor, there was an armory where all the weapons of the Dongfang family were stored, and with the treasures of the Dongfang family, there must be many spiritual instruments!

  Listening to Dongfang Fengfei's words and looking at the eyes of those children, Dongfang Hong felt extremely painful. He knew that today he was being tricked by Dongfang Fengfei. If he didn't take out his spiritual artifact to save these children, they would probably turn cold towards him. What a clever ploy to sow discord!

  "Good!" The voice was full of gritted teeth.

  Dongfang Hong's heart was bleeding, the weapons in the armory were all his treasured possessions, how precious they were, now they would become someone else's.

  "This includes me and all of you young masters and misses, a total of eight people. Go to the armory and bring back eight low-grade spiritual instruments." He said, tossing the key to the Fourth Mistress who had already gone out.

  As for why he didn't give the key to Third Madame, it seemed that Dongfang Hong was already somewhat displeased with Leng Xinhua at this point.

  "That's not right." Hearing Dongfang Hong's words, Dongfang Fengfei said with a naive expression: "The master of the Dongfang family is naturally higher than ordinary people. To redeem the master of the Dongfang family, you must bring an attribute-bearing intermediate-level spiritual instrument, and it must be a sword-type spiritual instrument too."

  Dongfang Fengfei also knew that in this small town, high-grade spiritual artifacts were basically non-existent. If there were any, they would be the town's most precious treasures and wouldn't be handed over easily. Dongfang Fengfei didn't want to push them too far either. Besides, with her current cultivation level, mid-grade spiritual artifacts were more than sufficient.

  "You, don't push people too far!"

  When he heard that Dongfang Fengyi actually wanted a mid-grade spiritual artifact, Dongfang Hongqi's face turned blood red. A mid-grade spiritual artifact with attributes was extremely precious, not to mention it was an even rarer sword-type spiritual artifact. This was going to cost him dearly!

  "Oh? Does the master of the Eastern House think that his own value is not worth more than a mid-grade spiritual artifact?" Dongfang Fengfei blinked her innocent eyes, "Originally I wanted to say it was a high-grade spiritual artifact, but unexpectedly it seems I overestimated the master of the Eastern House. Eh, since that's the case, then Master Eastern can just stay here for a few more days. However, whether or not this injury will worsen is unknown."

  After that, he hugged Xiao Qi in his arms and stroked her fur, lazily saying: "If at any time my Xiao Qi feels that the master of the Dongfang family is getting in the way, and wants to go back to the master's body to step on him a few more times, savoring that feeling of stepping on someone and breaking their bones, I won't be able to stop her."

  "You, you!" Hearing Dongfang Fengfei's words, Dongfang Hongqi almost spat out a mouthful of blood, "Go, give it to her!"

  Dongfang Hong could only helplessly let the fourth lady go and retrieve the spiritual instrument, he felt that if he stayed any longer, he would definitely be infuriated to death! In his heart, he was even more remorseful, today was truly a case of losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken, and almost lost his life as well!
