Once they made their decision, Caspian and Maya joined the queue and waited for their turn to climb
the mountain.
It was not long until they reached the front of the queue.
Everyone that lined up in front of them were mortals.
To cultivators, 20 fedulings was nothing to throw a fuss over.
However, it was a large sum to mortals.
That was why the Simmons family, who set up the checkpoint to collect congratulatory gifts, could not
escape the inevitable cries of displeasure and protest.
There was even the occasional scuffle.
Despite their wretchedness, the Simmons family were warriors, and there just happened to be a few of
them standing guard at the checkpoint.
Even if people were unhappy and went as far as to cause a ruckus, things would settle down very
quickly.
The Simmons warriors took one look at the little white pig sitting dignifiedly on Caspian’s shoulder, and
their eyes lit up.
“A cultivator!”
It was obvious that the little white pig was a mythical monster, and anyone who was able to train a
mythical monster would naturally be a cultivator.
The Simmons family members exchanged glances and saw hints of cautiousness in each other’s eyes.
After all, messing with mortals and messing with cultivators were two completely different matters.
“For two,” Caspian said as he reached out his hand and presented 40 fedulings, gesturing to himself
first, then at Maya.
The Simmonses were taken aback by how nonchalantly Caspian handed the money over.
They expected that being a cultivator, Caspian would want to reveal his identity and give them a piece
of his mind.
The mortals before him openly expressed their dissatisfaction, so they were prepared for a cultivator to
act more pompously.
The Simmonses realized that the cultivator who stood before them was probably someone who did not
want to cause trouble!
Upon that realization, an ominous spark appeared in the eyes of the Simmons member who blocked
the path.
“What about that?” said one of the Simmons men who had a mole on his cheek.
He pointed at Handsome, obviously testing Caspian’s limits.
Maya’s brows furrowed, but she kept silent at the sight of Caspian’s indifference.
“Do we need to pay for pets?” Caspian inquired coldly.
As he said the word “pet”, Caspian felt Handsome give him a sharp jab on the shoulder.
“A normal pet wouldn’t have to pay, of course.
This one, however, is an unusual one,” replied the man.
Seeing Caspian’s passivity, the Simmons family were even more confident that the man was a wimp.
If they did not teach him a lesson, they would be wasting a grand opportunity!
“It’s the same twenty, oh no, thirty fedulings!” announced the man with the mole.
The other Simmons family members nodded their heads in agreement.
”Fine!” Caspian said curtly.
He refused to argue with them and handed over an extra 30 fedulings.
“You!”
The Simmons family were completely caught off guard.
They were prepared for Caspian to protest, so they had a reason to mess him up.
They did not expect him to hand over the money so simply.
The man with the mole stood frozen in bewilderment.
When he noticed his companions signaling at him, he reached out and snatched the money from
Caspian’s hand, but did not move out of the way.
“Why are you still in the way?” Caspian asked as he threw a glance at the man.
“It’s… I mean…” the man with the mole stammered with a flustered expression on his face as he threw
pleading glances at his companions.
They came across a rare golden goose, but only managed to get a measly 30 fedulings from him.
They could not possibly be satisfied with that.
At that moment, a middle-aged man with a goatee walked over.
It was clear that the man was someone of status amongst the Simmons family members.
He sauntered over to the group and examined Caspian and Maya while stroking his goatee.
The man chuckled, then said, “When the head of our family advanced to the second stage of the Pulse
Control Realm a few days ago, we were robbed of 100,000 fedulings.
At the time, someone saw a young man and young woman sneaking out of the family house with a
large box.
Perhaps the both of you would do us the honor of coming back to us and aiding with the investigation?”
“What the h*ll are you talking about? Do you know who we are?” Maya scowled as she raised her
brows.
As a disciple of martial arts, Maya naturally refused to argue with the Simmons family’s earlier
extortion.
However, now that they accused them of a crime, she could no longer hold back her anger.
The Simmonses waited for Caspian and Maya’s resistance.
The man with the goatee’s expression turned stony.
“I don’t care who you are.
All offenders are punishable by law, be they royalty or commoners.
If you didn’t steal our money, then open up your bags and let us search! Otherwise, you’re coming with
us,” the man said coldly.
”That’s right!”
“Open your bags and let us examine them!”
The other Simmons family members jeered and chanted along.
“You!” Maya cried as her cheeks flushed with anger.
She did not expect these people to be so shameless.
“Do you know who we are? We are…”
Caspian cut Maya off before she could finish her sentence.
“I didn‘t mind when you extorted my money, but it seems like you’ve let that get to your head now.
Do you feel like you’ve lived too long?” Caspian snickered, then reached out and pointed at each
Simmons family member and added, “Leave thirty spirit stones each, then get lost.”
Caspian’s words made the Simmons men’s faces change.
The man with the goatee was a first-stage cultivator of the Pulse Control Realm.
At that moment, his expression turned menacing.
He shot Caspian an icy glare, then said, “I don’t care where you came from, punk.
All that matters is that this is the Simmons family’s territory.
You’re just causing trouble for yourself like this, do you understand?!”
“You’re the one causing trouble for the Simmons family, do you understand?” Caspian responded with
narrowed eyes.
Caspian’s words made the Simmons men think that the young man completely lost his mind.
“B*stard! Seize them and let the elders deal with them!” cried the man with the goatee to the other
Simmons men.
“While you’re at it, search them thoroughly and find out where they hid our 100,000 fedulings!”
“Yes, sir!”
In an instant, the Simmons men began to charge towards Caspian and Maya.
“Imbeciles,” Caspian said as his eyes turned as cold as ice.
Before the men could get close, he took a step forward, raised his hand, and landed a hard slap on the
cheek of the man with a goatee.
The man did not have time to react.
His vision blurred as if fogged up by strong winds.
The next moment, his head felt as if it was smashed into by a battering ram.
There was a buzzing in his head, and he lost all awareness before dropping to the ground.
The instant Caspian attacked the man’s brain, it was like a bottle toppled over.
All of the man’s teeth fell out of his mouth with a spurt of blood.
One slap was all it took to take the man out.
Caspian stepped down on the man’s face, looked towards the mortified Simmons family members, then
snickered, “I’ve changed my mind.
It’s fifty spirit stones per head now.
Let the head of your family come to take you back with ransom money now!”
