Just as Su Wan 'er and Wang Qian were alone and helpless and crying anxiously, a voice rang out from the crowd. Then, a youth walked out.
The surrounding people looked at the youth in shock. There was actually someone who dared to meddle in other people's business and stand up for the two ladies.
There were many people in Dragon City, and most people preferred to avoid trouble. In a place like this, they did not know when they would offend someone they could not afford to offend.
"Who is it?"
The fierce-looking burly man's expression turned cold. He looked at the youth with an unfriendly expression. A brat who was still wet behind the ears actually dared to meddle in his business.
The youth was none other than Mo Wen.
At the same time, a few people also quietly walked out from the crowd and slowly surrounded Mo Wen. These people were all the people who had mocked Su Wan 'er and Wang Qian before this. Without a doubt, these people were in cahoots.
"Brat, you better know your place. Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit," the fierce-looking burly man said coldly as he looked at Mo Wen. He hoped that he could use this oppressive method to scare Mo Wen away. He had thought of blackmailing them because he saw that the two young ladies were so gullible. If this matter really blew up, it would provoke the Huatian Palace Executors. That was something he did not want to see.
The people surrounding Mo Wen also had threatening expressions. They faintly released their auras. Their cultivations were actually not low. Two of them were even in the Embryonic Breathing Realm. As expected, there were many strong practitioners in Dragon City.
"Big Brother Mo!"
"Mo Wen!"
Su Wan 'er and Wang Qian's eyes almost widened at the same time. They looked at the youth in shock. The youth was actually Mo Wen, who had left without saying goodbye not long ago. They had never imagined that they would meet him at this time.
"Tang Zhizhi, how does the Huatian Palace usually punish people who cheat like this?"
Mo Wen smiled at the two of them. Then, he looked at Tang Zhizhi and asked with a cold smile. There were no rules in the Free Trade Market, and people could trade freely. However, this was a trade market established by the Huatian Palace, not a black market. There were some principles that no one could violate. Bullying others with their power. Intentional cheating would definitely be severely punished.
"If the evidence is conclusive, they will be expelled from Dragon City. At the same time, they will face a huge fine," Tang Zhizhi said plainly. A fine from the Huatian Palace. Even a Golden Elixir realm practitioner would be punished to the point of bankruptcy, let alone an Embryonic Breathing realm practitioner. If the circumstances were serious, even a Martial Arts Grandmaster would not be able to bear it.
Hence, very few people dared to cause trouble in Dragon City. Of course, there were all sorts of people in Dragon City. They came from all over the world, so it was not strange for some of them to take risks and ignore the rules.
"Are you sure that what you bought was not the Green Tree Snake's gallbladder, but this Red Patterned Snake's gallbladder?" Mo Wen once again looked at the burly man. His eyes were cold.
"What do you mean, brat? The truth is right in front of us. She clearly sold me the gallbladder of a Red Patterned Snake, but she pretended to be a Green Tree Snake and deceived me. Could it be that you want to distort the truth and accuse me of deceiving them?"
Now that things had come to this, it was impossible for the fierce-looking man to give in. He insisted that he had bought the gallbladder of a Red Patterned Snake but had paid the price of a Green Tree Snake.
"Really?"
Mo Wen laughed coldly. Suddenly, he stretched out his hand. The ferocious-looking burly man didn't have the slightest resistance and was directly caught in his hand. The people surrounding him were all stunned. The people surrounding him also retreated seven or eight steps in an instant. A formless power enveloped them, making it difficult for them to move.
"What are you trying to do?"
The fierce-looking man's expression changed drastically. He could not help but cry out in shock. He had not expected that he would be caught by this youth before he could even react. He struggled with all his might, but it was useless. It was as though he had been grabbed by a huge mountain hand.
The surrounding accomplices all looked at Mo Wen with fearful gazes. Their feelings were even more profound than the fierce-looking man's. Mo Wen had actually suppressed them to the point where they could not move with just his aura. Exactly what cultivation did this person have? Wasn't he a little too terrifying?
Tang Zhizhi was also shocked. Her employer's ability seemed to be quite strong. No wonder he had been so generous and dared to accept the foreign woman's challenge. As expected, he was not an ordinary person.
"What am I doing? I'm looking for the stolen goods on you, of course."
Mo Wen casually reached into the fierce-looking man's pocket. It was as though he had already known where the item was. He immediately took it out. It was a wooden box. When the box was opened, a fishy smell immediately assaulted their nostrils. There was a snake gallbladder inside. From the looks of it, it was the gallbladder of a Green Tree Snake.
"What do you think this is?" Mo Wen laughed coldly as he extended the snake gallbladder in front of the fierce-looking man. Whatever the man had on him could not be hidden from Mo Wen's eyes.
"This is the Green Tree Snake gallbladder that we sold. It's this one. Just now, we sold this snake gallbladder to him, not the Red Patterned Snake gallbladder."
When Su Wan 'er saw the snake gallbladder, she immediately cried out excitedly. They were not lying. They had just sold this snake gallbladder. Clearly, this fierce-looking man wanted to harm them.
"This … this is the Green Tree Snake gallbladder that I bought elsewhere. I bought it from another seller before this. Why? I practice a technique that requires a large number of Green Tree Snake gallbladders. It's not surprising that I have a Green Tree Snake gallbladder on me. This doesn't prove anything. Who can prove that they sold this snake gallbladder to me? "
The fierce-looking man said stubbornly. Even if he was caught red-handed, he would not admit to it. However, he was very shocked. He had hidden the Green Tree Snake gallbladder very well. It was not easy for him to find it. How did this youth manage to find it so easily, as though he had known about it?
"You really don't give up until you've reached the Yellow River. These two ladies' stalls also have materials from the dissection of the same Green Tree Snake. If we appraise this Green Tree Snake gallbladder and the materials from the Green Tree Snake, we will know if they are from the same Green Tree Snake. Coincidentally, there is such a firm organization in Dragon City. If you still don't admit to it, then you can only look for the Huatian Palace to determine the truth, "Tang Zhizhi said with a cold smile.
Before this, she had also been shocked when she saw Mo Wen make a move directly. If he could not find any evidence, it would be equivalent to provoking trouble. He would also be punished by the Huatian Palace.
However, since Mo Wen could directly find the evidence from the burly man's body, it was not Mo Wen's problem, but these people's problem.
"This …"
The fierce-looking man's expression immediately turned ugly. His eyes flickered, and it was obvious that he was very guilty. After a while, he suddenly shouted coldly, "The few of you are seeking death. Do you know who we are? Don't die without even knowing how you died!"
Having been caught, the fierce-looking man knew that it was useless to quibble. So, he threatened them fiercely, hoping that these people would have some reservations and not make a big deal out of it. Otherwise, if they really made a big deal out of it to the Huatian Palace, they would definitely be in serious trouble.
"Humph, you dare to do such a thing in Dragon City? You even dare to threaten us. You are really bold. I will inform the Huatian Palace's law enforcement team right now to deal with you scum. "
Tang Zhizhi coldly snorted. As a Huatian Palace's three stars Executor, she naturally had an arrogance that others did not have. How could she be threatened by a few scoundrels? She immediately took out the secret communication order that all Huatian Palace members had and directly contacted the nearby law enforcement team members.
"You are from the Huatian Palace?!"
The fierce-looking man's expression changed drastically. His face instantly turned pale. He recognized the token. It was an identity token that was unique to some Huatian Palace Executors who had duties in Dragon City. He had never imagined that this young woman was a Huatian Palace Executor. He had actually deceived a Huatian Palace Executor. Wasn't that just seeking death?
The accomplices around them were also frightened. They were far more flustered than when Mo Wen had caught them. Their pale faces were full of fear. If the Huatian Palace interfered in this matter, they would really be finished.
The surrounding onlookers saw that the situation had taken a huge turn and looked at each other. They looked at Mo Wen and Tang Zhizhi with respect. No wonder they had dared to interfere in such a matter. They were actually members of the Huatian Palace.
Su Wan 'er and Wang Qian also looked at Tang Zhizhi in shock. Dragon City was the world of the Huatian Palace. The members of the Huatian Palace naturally had a deterrent effect on ordinary people.
Tang Zhizhi had a look of accomplishment on her face. She could finally be of great use as a tour guide. With the price of one spiritual stone a day, she naturally had to get her money's worth. Only then would she feel at ease earning the money.
In a short while, a five-man Huatian Palace law enforcement team rushed over.
"What happened?" The leader was a young man. From the badge on his chest, he should be a Four stars Executor. He was in charge of the security of the nearby area.
Tang Zhizhi told them what had just happened. They had been caught red-handed, so there was naturally nothing to doubt. Moreover, Tang Zhizhi was a member of the Huatian Palace. Her credibility was naturally very high.
Hence, the law enforcement team did not ask any further questions. They directly went forward to detain the deceivers.
The Huatian Palace law enforcement team appeared. The fierce-looking burly man was so scared that his legs turned to jelly. At this time, even if he quibbled, it would be useless. The Huatian Palace would investigate and find out everything.
The group of troublemakers were taken away. The surrounding people also gradually dispersed. There had never been a lack of disputes in the Free Trade Market. However, it could only be said that the burly man was unlucky to have encountered a Huatian Palace Executor. His accomplices might not be heavily punished, but the mastermind would certainly be heavily punished.
"Big Brother Mo, thank you. You saved me once again," Su Wan 'er said gratefully as she lowered her head.
Su Wan 'er lowered her head and said gratefully. If Big Brother Mo had not appeared today, she really did not know what she would have done.
"Mo Wen, I really have to thank you this time." Wang Qian wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled somewhat awkwardly. It was fine that Su Wan 'er had been scared to tears. After all, she was still young. Wang Qian was the senior sister, but she had still shed tears. This made her somewhat embarrassed.
"It's a small matter. In the future, when you are selling things, try to have a senior by your side," Mo Wen said with a smile.
The reason why the burly man had targeted Su Wan 'er and Wang Qian was most likely because the two young ladies were easy to bully. They did not have a senior with high cultivation beside them. Also, the items on display at the stall were rather valuable, so he became greedy.
