Shang Xia didn’t plan on deepening his relationship with the Phoenix Cry Sect too much and the deal he had with Feng Nanze seemed superficial at best. As such, he wanted to get his hands on the most benefits possible.0

Also, according to Feng Nanze’s plan, Shang Xia could tell that the Phoenix Cry Sect was scheming something big. He wasn’t afraid of pissing them off either and he was sure the Phoenix Cry Sect wouldn’t dare to fall out with him because he asked for more benefits. The more he asked for, the more he would receive.0

Feng Nanze might not be satisfied with Shang Xia’s reaction, but the truth was exactly as Shang Xia had thought. He wasn’t willing to continue wasting time negotiating with Shang Xia and he simply paid the price.0
