I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 564 - 562 This is clearly my territory

```

"Just name your price, and we'll pay the compensation," Tong Xiao had no negotiating power left at this point. Although it hurt him like cutting off his own flesh, it was still better than losing his life!

"I won't ask for much, just 300 billion US dollars, and we can settle this matter!" Zhang Menglong suddenly felt a bit of pity for the old fellow. With such a disciple, he really had suffered through eight lifetimes of bad luck.

"Fine, 300 billion it is!" Although the sum of 300 billion US dollars was still astronomical, if they gritted their teeth and moved heaven and earth, they could come up with the funds. I will arrange for someone to handle the transfer of the related assets in a couple of days.

"Very well!" Zhang Menglong nodded in satisfaction. Since he was in a stronger position, he wasn't afraid of Realm Island's people pulling any tricks.

Having rescued the people and secured the money, the folks from Realm Island thought these people would finally leave Realm Island, right? But looking at Zhang Menglong, he seemed to have no intention of leaving at all.

"Gentlemen, you've got what you wanted, you should be able to leave now, right?"

"Leave? Why should we leave? Shouldn't you be the ones leaving?" Zhang Menglong replied with an innocent look.

"What?" People from Realm Island showed their astonishment. What did he mean? Did they intend to take over Realm Island?

"Sect Leader Zhang, what do you mean? We've released the people we were supposed to release, and we've paid the compensation we were supposed to pay. Are you still planning to occupy our homeland?" an Elder spoke up.

"What do you mean 'your' home? Who says this is your home; do you have any proof?" Zhang Menglong challenged.

"We have lived on Realm Island for a hundred years, isn't that proof enough?" Tong Xiao retorted.

"Huh, so by that logic, since I've lived on Earth for 20 years, does that mean Earth belongs to me?"

"You're being unreasonable!" One of the Realm Island Elders exclaimed, "Do you think just because you have strength, you can do whatever you want?"

"Exactly, you're right. Having strength indeed means you can do whatever you want. Does that make you angry?"

As soon as Zhang Menglong finished speaking, Wang Cai and the Brutish Beast behind him started to menacingly move forward.

Yes, they were simply inferior to him. If Zhang Menglong decided to play rough, they really had no means to counter.

"Come back!" Zhang Menglong called back the Brutish Beast and Wang Cai, "Wang Cai, what's the matter with you? Haven't I taught you that you shouldn't just think of resorting to violence and that you should win people over with virtue?"

"You have the nerve to talk about winning people over with virtue?" The people from Realm Island had seen the shameless, but never someone this shameless.

Who was it that just bombarded their Barrier with the Italian Cannon?

Who had just shattered their Barrier with three strikes of the Susanoo?

And who was kicking and punching Tong Wei just a moment ago?

Weren't you the one who thought of solving everything with violence?

"Now, please leave my private territory immediately!" Zhang Menglong pointed in the direction of the exit of Realm Island.

"Zhang Menglong, don't push us too far!"

Many of the people on Realm Island were over a hundred years old. Many had severed ties with the secular world and didn't even know where they would go if they left. Realm Island was their home.

"I haven't bullied anyone too far. Asking you to leave my private territory is both justified and lawful. In any country, in any region, I am in the right."

"And what proof do you have that this is your private territory?"

"I have a deed of ownership!" Zhang Menglong produced a red booklet with words on it that no one else had seen.

The sea area at the entrance to Realm Island, though a public maritime zone, belonged internationally to four small countries surrounding it, solely because they didn't see eye to eye with each other, resulting in joint management.

The night before departing, Zhang Menglong instructed Hong Yi to purchase that stretch of the sea.

This was just an area of the sea that no one passed through, meaningless to these countries; it wasn't a fishing ground nor did it have rich fishing resources.

```

For these four countries, this place was essentially negligible.

And Zhang Menglong had given each of these small countries 100 million US dollars, so they happily and eagerly sold him this sea area, even issuing all the relevant documentation to prove that this place belonged to Zhang Menglong.

This proof was valid all around the world.

"See for yourselves, everything within a 15-mile radius of this area belongs to me personally, which includes Realm Island. So, tell me, isn't this now my private territory?"

"You're shameless!" The people of Realm Island nearly bled from their eyes as they glared at Zhang Menglong.

A few hundred million US dollars was, after all, a modest amount of money for Realm Island; they could have casually bought this sea area and rightfully made it their own.

But who would spend such money on a place with no owner? Moreover, no one in the world would compete with them for this isolated place.

Little did they expect that someone like Zhang Menglong, a real stickler, would actually spend money to buy the ownership of the sea area and then come to negotiate with property certificates in hand.

They really felt like cursing their luck!

They couldn't win in a fight, and in terms of reasoning, they were also in the wrong. Who had they ever offended?

At this time, everyone vented their anger on Tong Wei. If this useless man hadn't offended someone like Zhang Menglong for the sake of a woman, they wouldn't have been subjected to such a thing.

Only, they never reflected on their own issues. Had they been nicer and not used Jiang Qiyuan's family as a threat, Zhang Menglong wouldn't have gone to such lengths.

"Let's go!"

After much deliberation, Tong Xiao still chose to compromise.

Although they had lost the cultivation resources of Realm Island, their Sect was vast and strong, and even if they were to start over in the secular world, they could still make something of themselves. As long as Tong Xiao was there, Realm Island would never perish.

"Build a villa over there, and bring that lake water in!"

"We can set up a golf course here."

"That area can be made into a barbecue spot. When there's nothing to do, come here and hunt a few monsters for a taste of freshness."

...

Watching Zhang Menglong enthusiastically planning the renovations, the people of Realm Island only felt a deep sense of helplessness. The place where they had lived for decades was about to be transformed into someone's private resort. This was truly like being uprooted and displaced.

"Old Zhang, isn't this a bit too harsh?" Wang Ling looked at the elderly, women, and children of Realm Island, showing a touch of sympathy, "Some of these people are innocent. Maybe we should leave them some space?"

"Yes, actually some of these people have really been quite nice to me," pleaded Jiang Qiyuan on their behalf.

"Alright," Zhang Menglong said with a laugh, "let's leave them a bit of space."

Zhang Menglong wasn't such an unreasonable person. Wang Ling was right; punishing only those primarily responsible and those who had failed in their duties was sufficient.

After all, Realm Island was big, and he didn't need that much space. Now that Wu Gui was subdued, there were no more forbidden areas on Realm Island, so it wasn't out of the question to leave some living space for the people.

"Okay, then let's head back!" Zhang Menglong patted Wang Ling on the shoulder.

"Old Zhang, I won't say much, but thank you this time," Wang Ling sincerely thanked him. If it weren't for Zhang Menglong's intervention, not to mention helping Jiang Qiyuan rescue her parents, even his own life would probably have been in jeopardy.

"Don't go on about such nonsense," Zhang Menglong laughed, "If you're really thankful, you'd call me 'dad,' and that'd be better than anything else."

"Get lost!"
