"Bones! My bones are all shattered!"
The moment Fang Xingjian made his move, everyone present gasped in astonishment.
"How dare he! To think that he dares to make a move here!"
"There's going to be a good show to watch."
Seeing that Fang Xingjian had crippled the two men with just two kicks, all the shop assistants stopped making a move. However, their gazes toward Fang Xingjian and Robert were as if they were looking at two dead men.
The old man who had tried to persuade them earlier shook his head and said, "Sigh, youngsters these days are full of youthful vigor. They don't even know how to be considerate of others. Creating trouble at someone else's shop … Aren't they just trying to ruin their livelihood?"
When Robert saw that Fang Xingjian was frowning slightly, he immediately stood up and scolded, "Hmph, what a shameless old man.
"Hmph, what a shameless old thing. Since when is it your turn to be generous with our money? You're not going to do it when we ask you to scram? "
With that, he activated his Reduced Force Field and slapped the old man across the air, causing his mouth to be filled with blood. He then hid behind the crowd dejectedly, as if he wanted to watch Fang Xingjian and the others put on a good show.
On the other side, one of the shop assistants left the shop. It was obvious that he had gone to deliver the news.
The crowd grew larger and larger, all of them talking at the same time as if they were watching a show.
"Gus is the one who opened the Gold Essence Horn. I heard that her elder brother is a Conferred Knight."
"Sigh, the two of you had better leave quickly. Gus herself is a top notch Knight. Once she comes, you won't be able to leave."
"How can money be more important than your life? You guys too. Didn't you ask about the shop's background before you bought things?"
Clearly, the Gold Essence Horn had been running amuck in Iron Ore Town for quite some time. The shop owner, Gus, relied on her elder brother's influence and often bullied some customers, swindling and cheating them.
However, she was also very observant. She would not take the initiative to offend those who had a bit of a background. This time, it was because he saw that Robert was an unfamiliar face and wasn't a local. After chatting with him for a while, he didn't seem to have any background, so he took action.
Moreover, it was not the first or second time that Fang Xingjian had made counterfeits. If the other party did not have a Conferred Knight to check with their Heaven's Perception, they would not be able to tell. She had made use of this opportunity to embezzle quite a few sums of money. Even though there were a few times when something had happened, Fang Xingjian had managed to suppress it. From then on, she had become increasingly unbridled.
Not long after, a total of five Knights wielding clubs and forty to fifty acolytes behind them rushed over. As soon as they arrived, they scared off the onlookers and surrounded Fang Xingjian and Robert.
The person in the lead was the manager, Gus. She was a plump woman who was more than 1.9 meters tall and had a fierce-looking face. When she saw Fang Xingjian and Robert, she had a fierce look on her face.
However, after living in Iron Ore Town for so many years, she had a good eye for people. Although Fang Xingjian looked ridiculously young, his calmness was definitely not fake.
Therefore, she probed, "The two of you, there must be some misunderstanding regarding the geomagnetic essence. If there's any problem, let's go in and talk about it."
Fang Xingjian threw a cold glance toward the Knights behind Gus and said calmly, "Let's talk here. Since you've cheated me of 90,000, you should return me 120,000. "
It was true that the Great Western City was much more prosperous than Kirst in the past. There were already Conferred Knights looking after a single mining center, and five Knights had been casually deployed.
When Gus heard Fang Xingjian's extremely tough tone, her brows twitched slightly, and there seemed to be killing intent in her eyes. However, she held it in and first reported her background, "This geomagnetic essence was brought over by my elder brother from the Bureau of Mines in the Great Western Region. He's the Deputy Chief of the Bureau of Mines, so he shouldn't have gotten it wrong. "Where are you from? Don't tell me you've made a mistake in your appraisal. This geomagnetic essence is something that only Conferred Knights can tell. "She was trying to sound out Fang Xingjian's background while reporting her background.
However, Fang Xingjian ignored the other party's probing and said directly, "I'll wait here. I'll give you half an hour's time. When the time is up, if I don't see the money, I'll tear down your shop and use the items in your shop to repay the debt."
Sensing that Fang Xingjian was not going to reveal his identity at all and that his tone was also aggressive and tough, Gus, the fat lady, did not dare to make a move. In her impression, those who would dare to speak like this were all the second generations of great aristocrats in the Great Western City. Only they would be so arrogant and domineering.
Just then, another young man walked out from behind Gus. This young man had brown curly hair, and his gaze toward Fang Xingjian was filled with discomfort.
He said, "Friend, it's enough to stop here. Don't go overboard."
This young man's name was Roslin, and his father was the assistant of the Great Western Region's Governor. He was also a Conferred Knight and a close subordinate of Governor Devitt. His rank was not high, but no one in the entire Great Western Region dared to look down on him.
After all, who would dare to offend him if he could speak next to the top person in the Great Western Region? Because of this, Roslin felt very good about himself. Today, he had been invited to the Iron Ore Town by Gus, his former classmate. Roslin had wanted to pull this Young Master along to do some ores business together.
Right now, he had also been pulled over by Gus to stand on her side.
"I'm Roslin, Gus' friend. It's really too much to gather the money within half an hour. I think it's better that we go in and discuss this slowly. Geomagnetic essence is good stuff, but if we can't appraise it, it might be seen as a fake. Why don't you guys bring it over and we'll let you take a look? "
Roslin had only come out to say a few words of fairness and to secretly reveal his identity. However, Fang Xingjian threw him a glance and said calmly, "You're going to shoulder the 120,000 yuan on his behalf? If you're not, then you don't have the right to speak here. "
With that, Roslin's countenance turned grim. As the son of the Governor's assistant, other than those top notch characters in the Great Western Region, when had he ever been disgraced like this?
His profligate nature rose up, and he ignored Gus' harsh words and let out a cold snort. "Brat, I've really given you some face, but you really think that you're someone important? Have you looked into the background of this Iron Ore Town? How dare you come here to create trouble? "
Fang Xingjian could not be bothered with him. He slapped down across space, slapping Roslin onto the ground as if he was swatting a fly.
Roslin sprawled on the ground in a human shape. He wanted to raise his head, but Fang Xingjian stomped down on his head, pressing it into the muddy water.
Looking at Roslin's reddened eyes and face, Gus let out a sigh inwardly. This was a great humiliation and a feud that would not end until one of them was dead.
In her eyes, Roslin was too rash, and the young man opposite him was even more vicious. At this moment, she slightly regretted bringing Roslin along to hold the fort.
Roslin struggled crazily, punching out at the leg that was stepping on his head. However, he felt that Fang Xingjian's leg was like a heavenly pillar, not reacting at all. Instead, there were loud banging sounds, causing his hands to be in pain.
Fang Xingjian's strength was extremely heavy, causing him to be unable to even move his head.
He bellowed furiously, "Gus, are you just going to watch like this?"
A hint of hesitation flashed on Gus' fierce face, and her eyes narrowed like a crocodile's. She knew that it was time for her to choose a side.
She had seen all the top notch second generations in the Great Western City, but there was definitely no one with a face like Fang Xingjian's.
Roslin's father was the Governor's assistant, and it could be said that he was second only to the Governor.
Moreover, if she did not save Roslin, Fang Xingjian would not be grateful to her. On the contrary, Roslin would hate her as well.
It seemed that there was nothing more to say.
Gus waved her hand and said, "All of you, attack! How dare you come to our Golden Corner to create trouble! Break their legs!"
