However, they were soon disappointed. Xiao Chen had just ascended to the Celestial Realm not long ago and was considered a newcomer in terms of status and strength. However, he was still a pinnacle existence in the lower realms. How could the two of them see through him?
Moreover, Xiao Chen's calm demeanor made the two of them unable to figure out Xiao Chen's background. After all, this was a Holy Immortal Fruit.
No matter how powerful Xiao Chen's background was, the Holy Immortal Fruit shouldn't be given to Xiao Chen to trade.
Even if they wanted their disciples to gain experience and gain some experience, they couldn't just take out something like this to train. However, how could an ordinary Heavenly Immortal obtain a Holy Immortal Fruit without a strong background?
It was this complicated situation that made Tianyi and Liang Chun a little hesitant to act rashly. They didn't even dare to open their mouths to ask anything.
This was because they were worried that if they opened their mouths and accidentally offended Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen would sell the Holy Immortal Fruit to someone else. That would be a huge loss.
Therefore, the room fell silent.
However, this silence didn't last for long. Someone pushed the door open in a hurry without even greeting them.
"Tianyi, which little brother wants to trade with us?" The person who came in looked rather old. His hair and beard were all white.
His complexion was rosy, and he was a little chubby. He looked like an old urchin.
His way of doing things was no different from an old urchin.
Before Tianyi could answer, the old man's eyes locked onto Xiao Chen.
Then, he strode forward and grabbed Xiao Chen's arm. "Little brother, are you going to sell that fruit?" he asked anxiously.
"Ugh …" Xiao Chen was shocked by the old man's actions. He couldn't help but take two steps back.
After confirming that the old man was only grabbing his arm and not trying to kill him, Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the old man was going to attack him.
"Hehehehe, about this, little brother, please don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean anything by it. I apologize for disturbing you, little brother!" The old man seemed to have realized that his actions had caused Xiao Chen to misunderstand him.
He instantly let go of Xiao Chen's arm and took two steps back politely. He chuckled to ease the awkwardness before bowing and apologizing to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen was also taken aback. Although the old man looked ordinary and looked no different from the old man next door, in reality, he felt a great sense of danger from the old man. The old man's strength was unfathomable.
No matter how arrogant Xiao Chen was, he couldn't accept such an expert bowing and apologizing to him in such a serious manner.
He immediately dodged to the side and returned the bow. "Senior, you're too kind!"
"Okay, okay, okay. It's okay. I hate these empty gestures the most. Can you answer me now? Are you the one who wants to sell the fruit?" The old man waved his hand and asked casually.
This kind of friendly attitude made Xiao Chen feel a lot less wary. He nodded and said, "Yes, sir!"
"Okay, then come with me. Let's go up and talk!" The old man was overjoyed. He took two steps forward and grabbed Xiao Chen's arm.
"…" Xiao Chen rolled his eyes helplessly. He didn't dodge this time?
He also knew that this was just the old man's subconscious action. He didn't have any evil intentions. However, it could also be seen that the old man was indeed a very casual person.
Seeing that the old man was about to pull Xiao Chen out, Liang Chun instantly panicked. "Senior Yun, you can't do this! Little brother, wait for a moment. The elders of the Liang Family will be here soon. Our price will definitely be higher than the Celestial Treasure Pavilion's! "
Although his words were said in a moment of desperation, there was nothing exaggerated about it.
After all, the Celestial Treasure Pavilion was open to do business. Although it was considered fair, it was actually far from the price that could be obtained privately in the black market. Moreover, the Celestial Treasure Pavilion was going to sell the Holy Deity Fruit this time. For the Celestial Treasure Pavilion, the price would definitely not be too high. However, it was different for the Liang Family. It was a huge family. They would definitely pay a higher price for the Holy Deity Fruit.
"Hmph, Liang Chun, are you trying to stop me?" When the old man saw Liang Chun walking directly to the door and blocking it, his face instantly revealed a displeased expression.
"I wouldn't dare. I've already informed Clan Elder Liang Xing. He should be arriving soon. Could Senior Yun please wait for a moment?" Liang Chun was instantly shocked.
This old man was no ordinary person. Whether it was in terms of status or strength, he was much, much higher than Xiao Chen. If it was not for the fact that Xiao Chen wanted to sell the Holy Celestial Fruit, Xiao Chen would never have dared to openly challenge this old man.
However, if he dared to back out now, he would probably lose a layer of skin even if he didn't die.
Therefore, he had to temporarily stop the old man and Xiao Chen here even if he had to risk his life.
Once the old man brought Xiao Chen to the third floor, even if the elders of the Liang Family were here, they wouldn't dare to fight in the Celestial Treasure Pavilion. That would be equivalent to directly challenging the Celestial Treasure Pavilion!
"Get lost! If you dare to be long-winded again, believe it or not, this old man will not be polite to you!" This old man did not have a good expression towards Liang Chunke, and directly scolded her with a cold face.
At the same time, a terrifying aura exploded from his body and headed toward Liang Chun.
"Senior Yun, forgive me, but I dare not obey!" Liang Chun was about to tremble under this imposing aura, but she still forced herself to say something with trembling lips.
"Good, very good. Do you really think I won't dare to kill you?" The old man laughed coldly as he raised his right hand and slapped it toward Liang Chun.
The seemingly ordinary slap contained a terrifying aura. Even though Xiao Chen was only watching from the side and the old man purposely didn't let the aura affect him.
However, Xiao Chen could sense that if the slap landed on Liang Chun, the latter would be crippled even if he didn't die.
Liang Chun instinctively wanted to dodge, but she gritted her teeth and forced herself to stay where she was!
