Chapter 226: Auction (4)
Suddenly, Lord Wu Qing, who was originally like a volcano that was about to erupt, strangely restrained all his anger and madness.
The corners of his mouth turned up in a wicked smile, Then, he muttered a little nervously. “Soon! Soon!”
“I’ll personally do what you can’t do!”
Fu Anzhi stared at the moody Lord Wu Qing, who seemed to have a dual personality. He gritted his teeth but did not say a word.
He knew that the more pain he appeared to be in, the more pleased Lord Wu Qing would be with himself.
The only thing that could comfort Fu Anzhi a little was probably that his wife had never wanted to hurt him or this world.
Lord Wu Qing seemed to have completely returned to normal and was no longer focused on Fu Anzhi.
From time to time, his eyes would scan the clock on the wall. The curves of his mouth widened, and his smile became eviler.
In the same way, Fu Anzhi was also staring at the clock on the wall, silently calculating the time.
In his heart, he prayed that his backup plan would work. He hoped that his ‘good brother’ from Tantra City would not disappoint him.
Actually, Fu Anzhi’s backup plan was very simple!
He was caught somewhat off guard by Lord Wu Qing’s unpredictable behavior.
However, with his many years of experience in business, he had already considered the worst possibility.
He had considered the situation where he failed to successfully implicate a third-party force and completely muddy the waters.
He also thought of the possibility that his Peak-Realm ‘good brother’ would disregard his feelings and bottom line to snatch that thing.
He even thought that something would happen to Lord Wu Qing and that Lord Wu Qing would go back on his word after obtaining that thing.
Actually, Fu Anzhi had already considered these. At the same time, he was also prepared for the worst.
If Lord Wu Qing broke his promise, he would rather leave that thing to his ‘good brother’.
After all, before his wife died and left that thing behind, he did have a relationship with that ‘good brother’.
Therefore, before he went to see Lord Wu Qing, he wrote a secret letter and handed it to someone he could trust.
Furthermore, they had also agreed on a time. If he didn’t appear by that time, the secret letter had to be handed to his ‘good brother’ immediately!
On a wide and flat road, traffic was rushing by. A bright red sports car seemed to have turned into lightning as it sped towards the Yong Hua Chamber of Commerce.
Jia Xi sat in the bright red sports car. Although he was driving very quickly, he was still continuously stepping on the accelerator. He looked flustered and anxious.
He seemed to be muttering, “Faster, faster!”
No one would have thought that Fu Anzhi would hand such an important matter to a nobody like Jia Xi.
Fu Anzhi was completely betting on his luck by doing this.
He didn’t dare to hand over his matter to his actual descendants. After all, with the power of these two forces, it was too easy to find out who his direct descendants were. In this way, the backup plan he had set up would not be useful anymore.
Therefore, he could only take the risk and look for the person who would execute the trump card among those unfamiliar faces.
As for why Jia Xi was chosen, it was because he had no contact with the Yong Hua Chamber of Commerce at all. It could be said that he was a transparent person.
Second, because of his relationship with Elder Jia, Jia Xi had to be at least more reliable than others.
Third, it was because Jia Xi had played a crucial role in the sale of the Green Jade Rock Marrow. In the end, the guest even gave him some fragments of the Green Jade Rock Marrow.
If things came to a critical point and he had no choice, he could still use this relationship to pull in that powerful guest.
Otherwise, with Jia Xi’s wealth, even if he was a martial artist, it was impossible for him to afford such a sports car.
Jia Xi had already stepped hard on the accelerator. The outline of the Yong Hua Chamber of Commerce gradually appeared in his vision.
Looking at the long line of people, at the yellow-robed figure sitting cross-legged at the entrance, and then at the expensive mechanical watch on his wrist, Jia Xi heaved a long sigh of relief after seeing the time.
Fortunately, there was no delay!
Squeak! Squeak!
With a screech of brakes, the bright red sports car swung around in a long arc, narrowly missing the long queue and stopping directly at the main entrance.
The crowd immediately fell into chaos. No one who could participate in today’s auction was easy to deal with.
They were all abnormally powerful martial artists. However, there were not many with good tempers. Seeing this situation, they pointed at the sports car and cursed.
“Damn it! Do you have eyes? If you bump into me, you won’t be able to afford it even if you go bankrupt!”
“Bastard! If you want to die, just say it. I’ll fulfill your wish and definitely not let you go back with just a limp!”
Not only were they talking, but some of them were even rolling up their arms and sleeves, preparing to attack.
However, before they could do anything else, they froze on the spot. The curses in the crowd also stopped abruptly, and the scene instantly fell silent.
Jia Xi, who opened the door and got out of the car, simply ignored everyone’s scolding and anger. He actually ran straight toward the yellow-robed expert sitting cross-legged at the main entrance.
How could everyone flare up when they saw this? How could they dare to flare up?
One had to know that this yellow-robed person was an invincible existence at the Peak Realm. It was precisely because of him that the usually arrogant martial artists were obediently queuing here.
Who knew what relationship this reckless sports car owner had with this Peak-Realm expert?
If there was really a close relationship between the two, then things would really be serious.
However, Jia Xi had just walked up the steps, but before he could take a step forward, he felt as if an invisible barrier had appeared in front of him and he could not take another step forward.
At the same time, the yellow-robed expert sitting cross-legged above suddenly opened his eyes and glanced down.
As soon as he met that gaze, Jia Xi immediately shuddered. He suddenly felt uncomfortable as if all of his secrets had been seen through.
This was also because the might of the Venerable Order had yet to dissipate. There were to be no conflicts in Cang City.
Therefore, after being rashly approached, the yellow-robed man only warned him with his gaze and did not show any killing intent.
One had to know that there was an unwritten rule in the martial arts world. If one rashly approached a martial artist sitting in meditation without their consent, the martial artist could kill them.
At this moment, Jia Xi finally reacted. His heart pounded in fear, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He knew that he had almost stepped into the gates of hell and almost lost his life here.
