"I wonder what solution Junior Brother Liu has. Everyone wants to ascend the mountain; if you need our help, just say it directly." At this moment, Yun Kaige also stepped forward, looking at Liu Yong with a faint smile.
"My method is actually simple, but the key lies with one person. I'm not sure if he's willing to agree."
"If he doesn't agree, even if I have a way to ascend the mountain, without his cooperation, it's useless." Liu Yong said indifferently, a smile playing on his lips.
"What exactly is the method? Speak up quickly—how will we know if you don't tell us?"
"If you really have a way to break the enchantments, if someone has a method, they must step forward and dare not refuse!"
"Exactly, with so many of us here, even if that guy doesn't agree today, he has to agree. This is for everyone."
"Yes, if there's a way and someone is still keeping it hidden, that's just too selfish."
When Liu Yong said he had a method, people all around began to speak up, with some even appearing ferocious, as if they were going to forcefully bring that person who held the solution.
The crowd around had been stuck here for days, unable to compete for the treasures on the mountain, which made them increasingly angry. Hearing now that there was a way and someone needed to cooperate, they were determined to make that person comply.
Seeing that he had stirred up the crowd's emotions, only then did Liu Yong step forward leisurely, but the more he did so, the more anxious everyone became.
"Actually, the person I'm referring to is Junior Brother Lin Chen. As long as he agrees to help, breaking this defensive prohibition before us should be no problem." Liu Yong's gaze fell on Lin Chen as he spoke indifferently.
The crowd was surprised to hear that the one who could help them break the enchantments was Lin Chen.
"Senior Brother Liu Yong, stop being coy and just tell us—why is it Lin Chen?" Someone among the crowd asked in puzzlement, exchanging knowing glances with Liu Yong, as if they were already in cahoots.
The others also agreed with this question, full of doubt. After all, Lin Chen's cultivation was the weakest among them, so how could he have a method to break the enchantments before them?
"Everyone just saw, Junior Brother Lin Chen holds such powerful Flame Explosion Talismans, and he mentioned that stacking fifty such talisman inscriptions would be immensely powerful. So blasting this defensive prohibition should not be an issue." Liu Yong smiled as he spoke, squinting slightly at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen also squinted his eyes, staring back at Liu Yong, thinking that this guy really is a dog that bites—a chance to bite and he pounces.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen, everyone wants to go up the mountain. I wonder if you are willing to take out fifty Flame Explosion Talismans to help everyone break this defensive prohibition?" Liu Yong looked at Lin Chen, smiling slightly as he asked.
Liu Yong's move was undoubtedly throwing Lin Chen in front of the crowd. Google seaʀᴄh Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
If Lin Chen refused, he would definitely be resented by everyone present.
But if Lin Chen agreed, he would have to produce fifty Flame Explosion Talismans, which was a huge fortune.
So no matter what Lin Chen chose, it was what Liu Yong wanted to see. As long as Lin Chen suffered any loss, it made him happy.
As soon as Liu Yong finished speaking, indeed, all eyes fell on Lin Chen, some wishing they could rush right up to him and make him hand over fifty Flame Explosion Talismans.
However, they were aware of the power of the Flame Explosion Talismans and dared not force Lin Chen at the moment.
Led by a few, they began to approach Lin Chen step by step, obviously not willing to let him go, having the stance that today Lin Chen must agree.
Seeing such a crowd, Lin Chen was not flustered; on the contrary, there was a faint smile on his lips.
"What he said is right, I do have a method that might break this defensive prohibition."
"I can provide fifty Flame Explosion Talismans, but surely I can't be the one to cover the cost alone."
"By the way, this great idea was proposed by Liu Yong, so surely Liu Yong would be happy to help everyone. He wouldn't even refuse this small amount of money, would he? If so, it was your idea—to expect everyone else to pay makes no sense, wouldn't you agree?" Lin Chen said, looking at Liu Yong with a knowing smile.
As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, all eyes turned to Liu Yong.
While everyone wanted to climb the mountain, they were unwilling to foot the bill for the Flame Explosion Talismans, just as Lin Chen said—the idea was Liu Yong's, so naturally, he should bear the cost.
They didn't dare offend Liu Yong, but since Lin Chen dared to, they followed suit.
Seeing that Lin Chen's words instantly turned everyone's attention to him, Liu Yong's face turned livid.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen, you overestimate me. I don't have the talent for crafting talismans like you, nor do I have that much money." Liu Yong said faintly.
"No money? If you have no money, then why did you jump out with your idea? If you couldn't shut your mouth. Everyone can see—I'm willing to provide the talismans to agree to this, but the one who came up with the idea won't pay to help everyone, what sense does this make?" Lin Chen looked at Liu Yong, immediately saying with indignation.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yong's face changed drastically. He never expected that his plan to trap Lin Chen would backfire so badly.
At this moment, the crowd's eyes were all on him, and if he didn't come up with something today, this matter would be hard to conclude, as it was his idea.
"Well then, I'll put forward all the treasures I have on me, and Lin Chen, you can help cover the rest. There's sure to be a lot of treasure on the mountain, and I'll repay you then, how about that?" Liu Yong looked at Lin Chen, speaking faintly.
He aimed to get past the current predicament, with no intention of giving Lin Chen any treasure acquired later.
"That's for the best, so Senior Brother Liu Yong, please bring out the treasures you have to help everyone." Lin Chen said calmly, then walked up to Liu Yong, waving his hand grandly to seize Liu Yong's spatial treasure.
