"Hahaha, this plaque was given to the Ying Heaven Pavilion by the Li family."
Da Shi's voice reverberated in the air, as if he wanted all the martial artists in the Vermilion Bird City to hear him.
"Ever since the 'Number One Pavilion under the Heavens' plaque, the Ying Heaven Pavilion's business has been booming. They have completely overtaken the Li family's Hanging Hu Building.
Therefore, to thank you, I asked someone to change the word 'pavilion' on the plaque to 'building' and return it to you.
After all, the Ying Heaven Pavilion cannot sit idly by when the Hanging Hu Building is in trouble.
This plaque is a gift to the Hanging Hu Building. I hope that the business of the Hanging Hu Building will rise to another level! "
Big Stone spoke boldly, ignoring the Paragon of Alchemy's attempts to interject. He said everything he wanted to say in one go.
The Senior of Pills looked as if he had been defeated. He was not sure if Da Shi knew the secret of the plaque.
If he did, with Stone Ancestor Dashi's shallow shrewdness, it would be good if he didn't attack the Li family directly.
Why would he be so polite as to give the plaque to the Hanging Hu Building?
But if he did not know, why would the Ying Heaven Pavilion take down the plaque a few days ago?
They could not have predicted that the Hanging Hu Building would be robbed, right?
Moreover, the first time the Hanging Hu Building was robbed was right after the Ying Heaven Pavilion took down the plaque.
It was too much of a coincidence.
Although there was no evidence, the Senior of Pills had always been suspicious of the Ying Heaven Pavilion.
"Senior of Pills, that plaque is a gift from the Li family to the Ying Heaven Pavilion. How can we take it back?
Senior of Pills, please take it back.
If you are really sincere, you can make another plaque. I thank you on behalf of the Li family and the Hanging Hu Building. "
The Senior of Pills refused gratefully.
He had made up his mind not to accept the plaque.
If he accepted it, he would have to hang it up. Wouldn't that be shooting himself in the foot?
Unfortunately, the Senior of Pills' refusal was futile in front of Da Shi.
"Hahaha, Senior of Pills, you are too polite. We are all old friends. Why are you thanking me?
"Back then, when I attacked the Li family's land, I felt that I was fated with the Li family's elders. Later on, you gave me a large number of treasures, so I felt even more fated with the Li family.
Now that the Li family's Hanging Hu Tower has reopened, I'm just giving you a plaque. It's not worth much, why are you being so courteous with me?
Besides, it would be too troublesome to redo it. There was already a ready-made one, so what was the point of redoing it?
No matter what, let this Stone Ancestor personally hang up this plaque for you! "
Big Stone picked up the signboard again and strode towards the entrance of the Hanging Hu Tower.
The Paragon of Pills' lips twitched, and she hurried over to stop him.
"Great Stone Ancestor, you can't do that! This plaque was given to the Ying Heaven Pavilion by my Li Clan. Now that we're taking it back, it's really … " Big Stone placed the plaque on the ground.
"Hmph! What is the meaning of this, Paragon of Pills?
Do you think that I, the Great Stone Ancestor, am not even qualified to give a plaque to the Hanging Hu Tower?
If you continue to be coy, don't blame me for flipping out! When that happens, your Hanging Hu Tower will collapse on the spot. After that, I will personally pay a visit to your Li family! "
Big Stone glared at the Paragon of Pills angrily.
The Paragon of Pills' face twitched.
This was a blatant threat! In this world, the only person who dared to pester and threaten the Li Family was the Great Stone Ancestor! The martial artists who had been clamoring at the Hanging Hu Tower were all stunned.
They had thought that the Great Stone Ancestor was here to cause trouble, but he was here to give them a plaque.
The Great Stone Ancestor was actually grateful to the Li Clan?
What was the difference between this and the sun rising from the west?
Of course, this was not the most shocking thing. They were most shocked that the Paragon of Pills was not willing to accept the plaque when the Great Stone Ancestor had personally led the Ying Heaven Pavilion's leader to give it to them.
Was he muddle-headed from old age?
The Paragon of Pills felt helpless and conflicted.
"But, Great Stone Ancestor, this plaque is really …" The Paragon of Pills wanted to refuse, but before she could finish, she was rudely interrupted by Big Stone.
"You're being coy and refusing to accept this plaque. Could it be that there's something fishy about this plaque?
This plaque was given to the Ying Heaven Pavilion by your Li Clan. If there's something fishy … "The Paragon of Pills waved her hands.
"There's no such thing! How could there be anything fishy about a plaque?
Fine, since the Great Stone Ancestor is so enthusiastic, the Hanging Hu Tower will accept this plaque! However, this plaque was first given to the Ying Heaven Pavilion by my Li Clan, and then given back by you, Great Stone Ancestor. Its value is extraordinary.
I'm afraid that it will be damaged by thieves. You know that the Hanging Hu Tower has been robbed by bandits recently.
If they damage this plaque, it will damage the relationship between the Li Clan and the Stone Ancestor.
How about this, I won't hang this plaque. I'll frame it properly and keep it as a treasure.
I'm sure the Great Stone Ancestor wouldn't mind … "The Great Stone interrupted," No, I mind.
This plaque should be hung high above the Hanging Hu Tower's entrance. It will let everyone know that the Hanging Hu Tower's reputation as the best tower in the world has been approved by the Stone Ancestor.
If anyone dares to damage it, then don't blame me for being hostile.
Even if a saint dares to cause trouble, I will make sure that he will never have a day of peace, let alone a mere bandit! Get out of the way, let's hang it up first! "
The Great Stone's patience had been worn out. He pushed the Paragon of Pills aside and hung the plaque up in a flash.
It was a pity that he couldn't hang a chamber pot there.
The Paragon of Pills, Elder Zhi, and Li Mu all knew that there was something fishy about the plaque.
They felt that the plaque was an eyesore when they saw it hanging on the Hanging Hu Tower's entrance.
However, there was nothing they could do against the Great Stone Ancestor.
They could only let it hang there for a few days and think of a way to remove or destroy it.
The Great Stone glanced at them, as if he had seen through their thoughts.
"Don't worry, no one will dare to damage this plaque because I've already prepared a trap.
Don't even think about touching it. If anyone touches it, I'll know immediately.
By then, even if that person runs to the ends of the earth, I'll find him and beat him to death! "
The Great Stone's words were like a heavy hammer.
The Paragon of Pills and the others' expressions froze.
The Paragon of Pills was now a hundred percent sure that the Great Stone Ancestor knew about the plaque's trick.
Otherwise, why would he leave a trap on the plaque to prevent others from destroying it?
This was giving the other party a taste of their own medicine. How ruthless! "However, no matter what, we still have to find a way to destroy this plaque.
Otherwise, the Hanging Hu Tower won't be able to continue doing business! We still have to rely on Elder Zhi to think of a way to deal with this. For now, we can only calm the Great Stone Ancestor down.
Fortunately, the plaque's effect won't appear immediately. We have plenty of time. "
The Paragon of Pills thought to herself.
"Also, Paragon of Pills, I brought Formidable here not only to give you the plaque, but also to tell you something else.
You'll be so happy that you'll jump for joy after hearing it! "
The Great Stone pulled Formidable in front of him and patted him on the shoulder. This kid was so weak after seeing so many big shots. He didn't even dare to speak after being here for so long. He was really useless.
Formidable nodded mechanically.
"Yes, yes, great news!"
Facing the patriarch of the Li Family and so many half-step Great Sages, he was still a little nervous.
After all, he was only a Profound Sage.
If the Great Stone Ancestor wasn't here, he wouldn't have the right to speak.
The Paragon of Pills and the others' expressions changed again.
Could the "great news" that the Great Stone Ancestor was talking about really be great news?
The Paragon of Pills smiled embarrassedly.
"What great news is it, Pavilion Master Li?"
Formidable forced himself to calm down. He had the Great Stone Ancestor behind him. Although the Great Stone Ancestor wasn't here, he should be watching from the shadows. What was there to be afraid of?
"It's like this, Li Family Patriarch. Now that the Hanging Hu Tower has been robbed, there are no pills to sell. However, there are so many martial artists waiting in line. We can't let them down.
Therefore, the Ying Heaven Pavilion is willing to fully support you. No matter how many pill orders there are, the Ying Heaven Pavilion will accept them all! "
