Chapter 302
Lin Rong was embarrassed. After confirming that he hadn’t gone to the wrong box, he gestured for Master Chu Yun to wait a second, then went into the box.
Soon, quarreling could be heard from the box.
It was another steward of the chamber of commerce quarreling with Lin Rong, a woman, and of course it was who the box belonged to that they were arguing about.
Lin Rong said he had booked it during the day.
The woman said that clients with a Purple Tiger Card should take precedence.
“Lin Rong, have you already forgotten the rules of the chamber of commerce? Does your client have a card issued by the bank?”
The woman’s voice was beautiful, and she was silver-tongued. She had forcibly occupied the box, but it sounded like she hadn’t done anything wrong at all.
Flying Cloud and the girl were completely irritated by his gesture.
“You called such a young guy master? Do you have eyes or not?”
“So, anyone can be a master in the Sacred Wind Chamber of Commerce.”
Jiang Chen already had a foot in the door. When he heard such a sarcastic comment, he turned his head to the side and said, “It’s a real insult to the title of master to have such apprentices.”
“What did you say?!”
Flying Cloud and the girl hit the roof. It seemed like they wanted to teach Jiang Chen a lesson.
“I said you don’t have manners!” Then he gave off the energy of a Reaching Heaven State and pushed Flying Cloud and the girl back.
They were only the master’s apprentices; they weren’t in a high state.
Both of them turned pale. Their chests were heaving up and down as if they couldn’t breathe.
“My young friend, that was too much. My apprentices are still very young. Couldn’t you show more tolerance?” Master Flaming Leaf pulled a long face and said coldly.
“You’ve spent half the day talking nonsense, but didn’t try to make them apologize. Instead, I gave you an inch and you took a mile. I didn’t attack them at the beginning. That’s the tolerance I’ve shown.”
Jiang Chen didn’t look at him any longer. He walked into the box and slammed the door.
In two or three seconds, it was nearly silent in the corridor. Even their breathing could be heard.
“Master Flaming Leaf, you saw that, too.”
Xiao Feng was very nervous. She had intended to frame Lin Rong, but she hadn’t expected the young master to be so hot-tempered.
If Master Flaming Leaf really flew into a rage, she would be blamed, too.
“Master, let’s go to the chairman! Or let’s talk to the staff of the Bank of Sacred City.”
“Yeah! There’s no way this loathsome guy is nobler than master!”
“Take us to the box first.”
Master Flaming Leaf still looked glum. No one knew what was on his mind.
Xiao Feng nodded. When she was leading the way, she said, “I don’t think that guy can be compared to Master Flaming Leaf, either. Do you know what he came for?”
“Oh? What for?”
“He brought us some panaceas to auction off.”
“Yeah? Panaceas that could be auctioned… What class are the breakthrough panaceas?”
“Couldn’t tell.”
Xiao Feng smiled mysteriously and said, “He claimed his panaceas could help practitioners develop their extraordinary meridians with great effects. For every panacea they take, they’ll be able to develop one extraordinary meridian successfully.”
“Does that apply to Reaching Heaven States?” Master Flaming Leaf asked with care.
“No. Only to Mental Wander States.”
Master Flaming Leaf and his two apprentices stopped immediately, then Master Flaming Leaf burst out laughing. So did Flying Cloud and the girl.
“Master, you also think it impossible, don’t you? So do I, but Lin Rong is stupid. He’s treating a stranger who came here for the first time as the most important guest. That’s irritating.”
Xiao Feng was laughing grimly silently.
Thanks to the conflict with Master Flaming Leaf, if Lin Rong made a fool of himself in the auction, the achievements he had gained the past weeks in the chamber of commerce would all vanish.
He would even lose his chance to start over again.
