The faces of the people changed drastically after hearing Xie Feng's words and a serious look appeared on the faces of all of them.

Magnificent Sky Corporation. This was a name that had resonated in China for a few years now and during the past few years had even started to become known in other nearby Asian countries. There were even rumors that the company was looking for an opportunity to expand overseas, scaring off many other companies in the winemaking business.

​​

The exquisiteness of the Nectar of Heaven wine created by Magnificent Sky Corporation's unique formula was such that once tasted, people could not drink other wines without feeling that the taste had been dulled. It was mainly high society people who hired people to line up for more than a day or two outside the exclusive retail stores to get several boxes of wine and have reservations for the whole month.

Wasn't it the case with Xie Feng himself a few hours ago? At the beginning of the banquet, when he tasted some of the wine of another brand he had casually chosen, he felt as if he was drinking horse urine even though it was also a high quality wine. Naturally, the Yao Family had several boxes of Nectar of Heaven that they had purchased and the guests were currently pleasurably tasting the best wine they had ever tasted in their lives.

"Young man, are you sure of what you are saying?" another gray-haired elder stood up and looked at Xie Feng with a serious expression.

More than a dozen powerful people with high financial resources looked at Xie Feng gravely, clearly interested in the proposal. But this was also natural, after all, who didn't know the fortune Magnificent Sky Corporation was making every month? Many tried to buy the formula to grab the golden goose only to be turned down without giving a chance for a counter offer! The amount of money they could make if they could get their hands on the creation formula was simply astronomical! How could these businessmen not be tempted?

"A man's words are as valuable as gold."Xie Feng nodded firmly, sticking to his words.

The people began to murmur among themselves as if they were deliberating something until Elder Ma turned his attention to Xie Feng and said earnestly while squinting his eyes like a fox, "Fine. But since it's a bet and the winnings were set, we'd like to know what would happen in case we lose.... After all, I don't think there would be no consequences."

Xie Feng's smile widened even more and he clicked his fingers as he sighed exaggeratedly, "Sir Ma really is a wise man.... It's really not much I ask for in return."Xie Feng's smile slowly disappeared and he said with a serious expression, "If I win, you guys should leave on foot from here tonight."

...

The people looked at each other, confused. Clearly none of them had understood very well what Xie Feng meant.

"Young man, can you explain?" A middle-aged woman said as she fiddled with a ring that had a diamond stone the size of a fingernail.

Xie Feng shrugged his shoulders and said casually, "I thought I had been quite clear, but I apologize since I apparently wasn't.... What I mean is that if you lose and I win, then the people who bet with me should hand over the keys to their vehicles to me.... That's why I said you should leave on foot from here."

...

The place suddenly became even quieter than last time and people looked at each other in dismay.

Gu Pojun and Fang Yanran looked at Xie Feng with wide eyes. This guy sure has courage! Daring to want the private cars of so many powerful people, wasn't he afraid that he would choke to death because he couldn't properly digest what he had on his hands!?

Even the indifferent and casual Yao Mei who was still standing next to her father on the stage was now looking at Xie Feng with her eyes slightly open and her little mouth half-open. It was as if she was looking at some kind of lunatic.

Of course, Xie Feng ignored all this and casually said, "The most expensive car I saw outside this hall was that Rolls Royce Heavenly Demon that should be worth about 1.5 billion. I think everyone here knows that my company's formula is priceless considering it is unique.... However, since I will be sharing the formula with all the winners, its unique value would be lost. For that reason alone I'm willing to risk a gold mine for cars that barely fetch 20 billion if we add them all together. Fair enough, don't you think?"

Fair! In fact, what Xie Feng said was very fair!

They all looked at each other without being able to say anything about it. Although they still thought that the young man in his early twenties in front of them was acting very arrogant in trying to keep their cars, none of them could say anything about it since he was actually being very reasonable about it.

Finally, a man of about 45 years old laughed loudly and exclaimed, "Ha ha ha ha. Alright! Since this young friend here is willing to bet it all, then this old man is also willing to make a small sacrifice for the greater good! If you win, then my Lamborghini Stoke Vega 1250 will be yours!"

Xie Feng bowed with a smile, as if he was a gentleman and 'humbly' thanked the man's words.

Immediately after the owner of the Lamborghini Stoke Vega 1250 expressed his desire to join Xie Feng's game, many other people joined the bet and in less than a minute a waiter had collected a total of thirty-five keys.

The tray in the butler's hands trembled slightly as the poor man stared in terror at the exotic-looking keys. In his hands, he held billions of dollars! If he damaged just one key, his life would not be enough to redeem himself!

Xie Feng clapped his hands happily and looked at Lin Tian, who was still looking at him as if he was an idiot. "Since all the elders expressed their opinion, let me confirm. You all say and fully trust that the Black Dog Head Bracelet in little brother Lin's hands has super powerful abilities, am I wrong?"

Although they were a little hesitant this time, all the people who bet against Xie Feng nodded firmly. They saw with their own eyes how the Anubis Bracelet in Lin Tian's hands saved his life and even destroyed a metal bullet like it was nothing. If they admitted otherwise wouldn't that be saying that their eyes were as good as an old blind dog's?

"Excellent." Xie Feng smiled.... Only this time, his smile was clearly more malicious than humble and kind. As he looked at Lin Tian, he asked, "Little Brother Lin, that Black Dog Head Bracelet is what you will use tonight to propose engagement to the beauty over there?"

Lin Tian frowned and said in disgust, "It's Anubis Bracelet and that beauty over there is my future wife, be careful how you refer to her."

"Oh? Although she doesn't seem very interested in you from what I see..." Xie Feng looked at Yao Mei, who was still looking at him like a weirdo, and said mercilessly, "In fact, I think she's been looking at me more during these few minutes than she's been looking at you all night."

Xie Feng ignored Lin Tian's changed face and walked over while cracking his knuckles with a cruel smile.

Lin Tian was about to take a step back but remembering that many people were watching him, especially seeing Yao Mei paying attention to his movements, he stopped there and tried to act normal as he said, "You.... What are you going to do?"

"Don't worry, don't worry." Xie Feng stopped right in front of Lin Tian and, due to the clear height difference had no choice but to look down. "That broken bracelet can protect you right? Now, I'll prove to everyone that actually, that trinket can't compare to one of my shoelaces!"

After saying that, Xie Feng didn't wait for Lin Tian's reply and raised his open right hand. Then...

PA!

Lin Tian spun around several times and almost fell to the floor while the sound of a clear and loud slap echoed through the entire hall.

People were stupefied as they looked at the red hand-shaped mark that became clearer and clearer on the right side of Lin Tian's face.

What happened!?

"Mmm...." Xie Feng waved his hand as if he felt some pain and slowly said, "That's weird.... That bracelet should protect you, right? What's wrong?... Maybe it's not enough just once."

"W-Wait!"

Lin Tian suddenly seemed to understand something and quickly tried to stop Xie Feng.... But how could Xie Feng listen to Lin Tian? After Lin Tian had been asking for trouble over and over again without even knowing him, Xie Feng was already determined to teach this guy a lesson!

Xie Feng raised his hand again and slapped Lin Tian mercilessly.

PA!

But he didn't stop there and continued slapping him several more times!

PA!.. PA!

"That's weird... let's try some more."

PA!.. PA!.. PA!

"Maybe it has time to cool down, a little more..."

PA!.. PA!.. PA!.. PA!.. PA!

Xie Feng slapped Lin Tian more than twenty times in a row without a break. Sometimes his hand slapped the right side and sometimes it was the left cheek. Sometimes he would even mutter things like "This side is less red" or things similar to "This side is missing something else to balance the puffiness of the other."

People, everyone, no matter if it was Yao Mei, Yao Xiyu, or Xie Yao and the rest of the girls, watched Xie Feng walking Lin Tian to the slaps as they walked all over the hall, with Lin Tian clearly trying to get away!
