Free Web NovelChapter 567: Chapter 241: The Once-in-a-Millennium Temptation of Immortal Blood (Part 3)
After speaking, Yang Chen left with Wang Zheng and Zhou Wenqi.
Those players who paid high prices for the jade from Yang Chen also worried about the danger of carrying them, and hurriedly left under the escort of their attendants.
Hong Junle showed a mischievous smile and signaled to a few subordinates, and they immediately left as well.
Subsequently, other players also left one after another.
Yang Chen was stopped by Mingcui Square staff upon reaching the first floor, who said Master Qin had arrived and wanted to discuss the price of Immortal Blood face-to-face.
Yang Chen responded very clearly: "Please tell Master Qin that I’m not selling this jade."
At this time, the manager arrived, smiling and saying, "Boss Yang, why so stubborn? Perhaps we can offer a price you can’t refuse? Talking costs nothing, and you might even make a friend like Master Qin. Many have tried to connect with him but haven’t had the chance; don’t miss this opportunity."
At this moment, Hong Junle and others had come down as well.
Seeing Mingcui Square’s people surrounding Yang Chen, everyone quickly started "speaking out for justice."
If Yang Chen’s Immortal Blood was intercepted by Mingcui Square, then they wouldn’t have a chance.
Therefore, they had to help Yang Chen escape, after which they could try to negotiate with him to buy the Immortal Blood or simply take it by force.
They were willing to do anything to get this priceless treasure.
Hong Junle: "What’s going on here? Mingcui Square doesn’t let anyone get good stuff? Whoever gets something good can’t leave?"
Ning Shaoqing: "Mingcui Square’s reputation in the gambling world has always been good; they wouldn’t do something that tarnishes their name, right?"
Others echoed similar sentiments to Hong Junle and Ning Shaoqing.
The manager quickly smiled and explained, "Please don’t misunderstand, I’ve mentioned before, no matter what treasure is found in Mingcui Square, guests can take it with them. The reason for stopping Boss Yang is twofold. First, our Master Qin wishes to talk face-to-face with him to see if he might sell the Immortal Blood he’s holding. Second, Zhou Wenqi owes us 2 million, and now they’re partnering with Boss Yang to gamble and make money, so naturally, we want them to repay us as soon as possible. So please don’t misunderstand, we have no other intentions."
At this moment, Master Qin hurriedly arrived.
Everyone warmly greeted Master Qin.
The manager quickly whispered a few words to Master Qin.
Then Master Qin cheerfully approached Yang Chen, saying, "How nice to meet you, Boss Yang! I’m Qin Sifeng, the owner of Mingcui Square. Today, having someone like Boss Yang visit is truly an honor for us at Mingcui Square."
Yang Chen nodded with a smile, saying, "Hello, Boss Qin. It’s already past two in the morning and I’m really tired, I must hurry home to sleep. On another day, I’ll visit and chat with Boss Qin. How about that?"
Qin Sifeng’s mouth tensed slightly; he didn’t expect Yang Chen to be so rude.
Who in the gambling world doesn’t know Qin Sifeng’s name?
But he thought about it, the guy was a first-time visitor, even just a ride-hailing driver, not knowing who Qin Sifeng is seemed normal.
Master Qin suppressed the awkwardness and replied with a smile: "There’s no better time than now. I’ve climbed out of bed late at night to come meet Boss Yang, surely you won’t leave me hanging."
Yang Chen replied bluntly: "Boss Qin knows it’s late, I’m really tired. You want to talk, but that doesn’t mean I want to talk. Right? Just because you want to talk, doesn’t mean I must stay and talk, right?"
The manager snorted coldly, saying, "Boss Yang, one has to be smooth in life, don’t be too brash. Master Qin specially came to talk to you, it’s not good to be so disrespectful."
Yang Chen, unfazed, answered: "Why? Is your Master Qin the Emperor? He wants to talk, I must talk? Not talking isn’t an option?"
The atmosphere grew tense.
The mental activity of other players was quite interesting.
"Wow, this ride-hailing driver has guts, even disrespecting Master Qin."
"Like they say, ’a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.’ This guy, making Master Qin lose face in front of everyone, is something."
"Damn, if this kid keeps going this way, Master Qin might resort to force, then we’ll have no chance."
...
These people were very conflicted inside; wanting to buy or take the Immortal Blood from Yang Chen, they inwardly hoped he’d leave safely, but dared not offend Master Qin, no one dared speak.
Those who have read Heaven-Slaying Dragon-Slaying Sword know a scene where everyone fights over the Dragon-slaying Sword while the Heaven-slaying Sword sits unclaimed in Wudang Main Hall.
Why?
Because Wudang Mountain is Zhang Sanfeng’s turf; who’d be crazy enough to go there and grab stuff?
The Six Great Sects combined might not be enough to challenge him.
But the Dragon-slaying Sword was in Xie Xun’s hand, his kung fu being unremarkable, so everyone rushed to snatch the sword from him.
Similarly.
The Immortal Blood was with Yang Chen, and they had a hundred ways to get it.
But once the Immortal Blood ended up in Master Qin’s hand, they could only watch.
At this moment, the five bodyguards tasked with ensuring Yang Chen’s safety entered.
Yang Chen smiled and said, "Everyone, it’s really late today. I’m heading home to sleep. Until we meet again!"
Five bodyguards surrounded Yang Chen, escorting him out of Mingcui Square.
The manager urgently stopped Wang Zheng and Zhou Wenqi, saying, "You two can’t leave, when will you pay back the money you owe us?"
