It seemed like Ling Tianyu knew that his old master was a master teacher, which was why he came over.
At the same time, his standing rose as well!
No matter what, he was the butler of a master teacher. Even the prime minister of the kingdom had to curry favor with him. No matter how incredible Ling Tianyu was, he was just a merchant. What was there for him to fear?
At this point, the fear in Sun Qiang's heart disappeared. He immediately straightened his back and with an air of superiority, he said, "My apologies, my old master is already asleep. He instructed me to not meet anyone regardless of who it is. My apologies, Lord Ling might have made a wasted trip."
Exhilarating!
Exhilarating!
In the past, he would always speak humbly to Lord Ling. When had he ever dared to reject him directly? And he said it in such a righteous and self-righteous manner?
"Asleep?"
Ling Tianyu's mouth twitched.
The moment the other party left, he immediately rushed over and fell asleep within three to five minutes of each other... Who was he trying to fool?
It seemed like he had really offended this master teacher and incurred his wrath!
Offending a master teacher... Putting aside a merchant like him, even Emperor Shen Zhui of Tianxuan Kingdom wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
Besides, his wife was on the verge of death. Since this master teacher was able to point out the symptoms, he must have a solution. No matter what, he mustn't give up.
At this point, Ling Tianyu became even more cautious. "It was my servant's fault for causing Brother Sun to be injured. These are some medicine that I have obtained. They are extremely effective in treating injuries. Also, I have these too. I don't mean anything else, I just hope that Brother Sun can help me pass a message..."
As he spoke, he took out a jade bottle and a stack of gold notes and passed it over.
Sun Qiang lowered his head to take a look and his eyes narrowed.
As a merchant, he had a keen eye for things. The item in the jade bottle was called [Wound Mending Pill], a true divine healing medicine. It was a treasure that only the apothecaries of the Apothecary Guild were capable of forging. Every single pill cost more than ten thousand gold coins.
The other party gave him a bottle at once...
More importantly... The gold notes in the other party's hands were of a denomination of five thousand and there were twenty to thirty of them in a stack. In other words, just to pass a message to him, the other party had to fork out at least a hundred thousand gold coins!
The heck!
Did he have to be so generous?
However, even though he was shocked, he knew that the other party's attitude and the money came from the other party's reverence for his master. It had nothing to do with him. If he were to really be black-hearted and make his master unhappy, everything would be for naught.
Thinking to this point, he gritted his teeth, "I'm sorry, Sir Ling, please conduct yourself with dignity! Old Master personally instructed me not to see anyone, so I can't do anything about it. If you really want to come over, I think it's better to do it tomorrow! "
Zhang Xuan waved his hand, suppressing the pain in his heart. It was as if he did not care about the money in the other party's hand at all.
There was no helping it. From today onward, he would be the butler of a master teacher, and his status would rise as well. Thus, he had to maintain the bearing that he was supposed to have.
He also had to learn how to act tough!
If he was bribed with a little bit of money and some pills, who would look up to him in the future?
"Tomorrow?"
Ling Tianyu's expression was ugly.
His wife might not even be able to make it through the night. If she really waited until tomorrow, she might just be a corpse.
"Please help me, Brother Sun. I really have an urgent matter to discuss with your master."
With a sincere expression, Ling Tianyu took out another stack of gold notes and passed it over.
"I'm sorry, I really have no choice."
Seeing that the other party was taking more and more money, Sun Qiang was on the verge of collapsing. He waved his hands, turned around and walked in, "Close the door!"
After which, he walked into the courtyard.
Jiya!
The door to the courtyard was closed.
"Brother Sun..."
Ling Tianyu shouted anxiously. Even though he had reached Fighter 7-dan Tongxuan realm while the guards were only at Pigu realm, they were still far from him.
"Brother Ling..."
Master Cheng Yuan couldn't help but look over.
"Sigh, it's all my fault. If I had stopped Master Teacher just now, this wouldn't have happened." Ling Tianyu didn't get angry at the other party for rejecting him. Instead, he sighed and shook his head.
If he had to blame someone, he could only blame himself for not believing the other party's words and wanted to verify it. Now, he had incurred the displeasure of the master teacher. He could only blame himself for this outcome.
"Then what should we do now?"
Master Cheng Yuan couldn't help but ask.
"Wait! Even if I have to wait for the entire night, I will wait! I have already missed the opportunity once, I don't want to miss it a second time! "
Determination gleamed in Ling Tianyu's eyes.
It was precisely this determination that allowed him to rise from a poor lad to a wealthy tycoon. Besides, if he could save his wife, he wouldn't mind waiting for three days.
Even if Emperor Shen Zhui were to come, he wouldn't say a word if he was rejected by the door.
Master teachers had the capability and identity to do so.
… … …
"I really rejected him outside the door?"
Walking into the courtyard, Sun Qiang felt as though he was dreaming. His body felt light as a feather.
Who was outside the door?
Ling Tianyu!
Even if he wasn't the wealthiest person in Tianxuan Royal City, he was a true billionaire.
When such a person came to pay a visit, even a prime minister or a grade-1 official would rush to welcome him. Yet, he rejected him outside the door... Just the thought of it was inconceivable.
Even so, the other party didn't dare to feel the slightest dissatisfaction.
To be able to reject even him, didn't this mean that his standing would only grow higher and higher, becoming a celebrity in Tianxuan Kingdom?
It seemed like abandoning his shop to become a butler was the wisest decision he had made in his life.
"This is... a true master teacher!"
Only at this moment did he confirm his thoughts.
Previously, when the other party said that he was a master teacher, he was still a little apprehensive. However, upon seeing how respectful Lord Ling was to him, he understood that only a true master teacher would possess such charisma and means.
Aren't you formidable?
So what if you are formidable?
Before a master teacher, everything else is trash.
"Let's look for the old master!"
After a moment of glee, Sun Qiang walked into the hall once more. The old master was seated quietly within, not resting at all.
"Old master, Ling Tianyu is here."
Taking two steps forward, he clasped his fist respectfully.
"Un!" Zhang Xuan nodded his head and ignored him.
"He wants... to meet you..." After hesitating for a moment, Sun Qiang couldn't help but ask.
"Let's wait for a night first. If he can't wait any longer, tell him not to come anymore."
Zhang Xuan said calmly.
Through touching the stone lion, he knew that it wasn't Southern Green Jade. Naturally, he also knew how dangerous it was.
Even though the Library of Heaven's Path didn't provide a treatment method, it described in detail the condition of an ordinary person who had their vitality devoured by the blood jade. It was unlikely that they would die within a short period of time. Since that was the case, he decided to have the other party wait outside.
With this billionaire waiting outside, his reputation would surely spread far and wide.
He had to earn more than 20 million in nine days, but there was no other way.
"Alright!"
Sun Qiang nodded his head and backed out.
