Chapter 1116: The Gao Family
"Speak," said the youth impatiently.
The immortal king glanced at him and replied, "This shop used to be Skyspan Trading Company's territory.
"This shop used to be the Skyspan Trading Company's territory, but half a year ago, someone called Grandmaster Ye suddenly appeared and bought it over. Now it's the general store we know."
The youth cocked his head and sneered at the immortal king.
"Grandmaster Ye?"
"That's right. I heard this Grandmaster Ye is a tenth-rank, or even eleventh-rank pill refiner. Every so often, he'll refine pills for immortal kings here. Although he charges a high price … his success rate is one hundred percent."
With that, the immortal king added, "Young Master, pill refiners are like a hornet's nest.
"Young Master, pill refiners are like a hornet's nest, especially high-ranked ones. They definitely have many powerful cultivators by their side, and quite a few are more than happy to help them out so they'll owe them favors. We …. Don't you think …. "
"What do you mean? They're just pill refiners. Do you think our Gao Family is afraid of them? Even if he's a twelfth-rank pill refiner, I'll tear down his shop today! "
At that moment, the kneeling sky immortal's arm went limp.
The youth sitting on him was caught off guard and fell to the ground. When the Heaven Immortal expert saw this, he quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging for mercy. With the help of the others, the youth stood up, frowned and raised his leg to kick the youth.
"Young Master, this lowly one knows his wrongs. Please spare my life …."
"Dog slave, you can't even be a chair. What use do I have for you?!"
A longsword suddenly appeared in the young man's hand. The blade of the sword was blue in color, and one could faintly feel a faint chill emanating from the sword. This sword was obviously not an ordinary weapon.
When he saw the youth raise his sword, the sky immortal begged even more fervently. However, the youth didn't hesitate. He raised his sword, and a cold light flashed ….
Ding.
Just as the blade was about to land on the sky immortal's neck, a pebble struck the blade and knocked it away. The tremendous force knocked the youth's sword from his hand and it fell to the ground.
"You're looking to die!"
The young man who was holding his right hand shouted. The momentary impact just now had already caused the web between his thumb and index finger to tremble.
"Young Master, you're really vicious. I don't care if you care about me. But this is my shop. You're making my shop bleed. You're making trouble for me. That's not very nice. "
Ye Zichen walked out of the shop in his white robes. When he did, the servants guarding the door all bowed to him.
"Young master."
Ye Zichen nodded towards everyone, then set his gaze on the young man.
The young man looked to be in his twenties and was over six feet tall. His purple robe flickered with spiritual light, and it looked like there were many spirit formations engraved on it.
Prominent cheekbones, aquiline nose, thick lips. Looking at his cracked right hand, there were no calluses on his hand. He didn't look like someone who used to hold a sword. His left hand was wrapped in a ball of white cloth, and his index and middle fingers were shorter than normal fingers. Faint traces of blood could be seen. It was obvious that his fingers had been cut not long ago.
Not long after...
Ye Zichen couldn't help but glance at Chi Mei. She couldn't have gotten her fingers chopped off, could she?
He looked at the young man's attendants and saw that they were all sky immortal experts. They were far stronger than the silkpants he'd seen in the Mortal and Profound Great Districts. There were even several immortal kings among them. The immortal king accompanying the young man had already undergone tribulation and was on the verge of condensing his core into a supreme.
"This troublemaker."
Ye Zichen couldn't help but sigh. Chi Mei was definitely an expert at stirring up trouble. Ye Zichen had already made up his mind. Once he dealt with this matter, he'd send her away.
He took a few steps out of the shop and cupped his hands at the young man.
"I don't know how I've offended you, young master, but you've sent people to surround my shop so tightly that not even a drop of water can trickle through. Harmony breeds wealth. If I've offended you in any way, please forgive me. I'll make sure to satisfy you. "
"You …. You're the owner of this shop?" snorted the youth.
"Yes, that's me." Ye Zichen nodded amiably.
"You look like a dog, aren't you?"
The young man's words were merciless. When the sky yao in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda heard that, they wanted to rush forward. Meng Huairong in particular, if Jiao Qi hadn't held her back, would've smashed that bastard's head in.
When they saw that Ye Zichen's people were about to move, the young man's attendants stepped forward as well.
More and more onlookers gathered around them. Judging from the young man's attendants, they were obviously no ordinary family descendant. However, Grandmaster Ye was no ordinary person either. If the two of them clashed, it was hard to say who would win.
"All of you, back down."
Ye Zichen sneered at the sky yao in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda. Although the young man's words displeased him, he maintained his smile.
"I'll take that as a compliment. I still don't know your name, young master. Also, you still haven't told me why you're here."
"You've done a good job pretending to be a grandson," laughed the young man arrogantly. "Let me tell you, I'm Gao Ruilong. I'm the direct descendant of Qilin City's Gao Family. Seeing as you've done a good job pretending to be a grandson, I'm very pleased, so I won't make trouble for you. Is that woman behind you your woman? How about this? Hand her over to me, and I'll take my men and leave. "
Hiss.
The onlookers sucked in a breath of cold air. There were only a few peak powers in the Sky Great District, and they were all extremely powerful. However, the ones they feared the most weren't, but rather, a few family names …..
Gao! Cui! Situ!
From the outside, these three families looked like ordinary aristocratic families, but anyone who lived in the seventy-two districts would know that they were clans from the Divine Mountains.
So long as they were related to the Divine Mountains, they were transcendent powers. In the seventy-two districts, they absolutely couldn't afford to provoke them.
"So it's the Gao Family. My apologies, my apologies."
After staying in Ice Blue City for so long, Ye Zichen had learned a bit about the Gao Family. He knew that they came from the Divine Mountains.
But to tell the truth, Ye Zichen didn't really care. It wasn't a big deal.
However, he still had to give them face.
Gao Ruilong was very satisfied with Ye Zichen's performance. He mused to himself, "This kid's quite smart."
Then he heard Ye Zichen say, "But I don't know how my wife offended Young Master Gao. Young Master Gao is missing two fingers. Could it be my wife did it?"
Ye Zichen smiled calmly, then frowned at Chi Mei.
"Yes or no?"
"Yes," said Chi Mei pitifully. "Sir, you have no idea, but this young master teased me on the way here. He even reached out to grab me …. That place, in a fit of anger, I …. "
"Nonsense!"
When Ye Zichen heard that, he flew into a rage. Gao Ruilong continued to watch the drama unfold. He already knew that this woman would fall into his hands soon enough.
So long as she fell into his hands, hmph ….
Just as he was lost in thought, Ye Zichen spoke again.
