Bab 13: Chapter 11: The Tycoon of the Li Family Commerce Group_1
He dared to say so, which meant he had absolute confidence. Unless Feng Xuewu didn't want to save her mother, as long as the right spirit medicine was found and the essence of the three spirit medicines was boiled into a soup, the jade person syndrome would definitely be broken on its own. Of course, these three spirit medicines were common in the outside world, but they were extremely rare in the Great Wilderness.
But it didn't matter to him any longer. If Feng Xuewu wanted to save her mother without paying any price, it obviously would be impossible.
Upon hearing Yang Chen's words, Feng Xuewu instantly felt relieved. Her red lips slightly parted, and she said tenderly: "With such assurance from little brother Yang Chen, I can be at ease. If my mother's condition truly improves, I will definitely thank you and personally apologize for my disrespect to you today!"
"Miss Feng, there is no need to be polite. I have seen your filial piety towards your mother, and your apology is sincere and passionate, but I dare not accept it. If possible, I would like those people behind you to apologize to me one by one, and if they truly respect you, then a simple apology should not be a problem, right?" Yang Chen spoke unhurriedly, his eyes sweeping over the people behind Feng Xuewu.
His words put Feng Xuewu's admirers in an extremely awkward situation.
If Feng Xuewu's mother were truly cured, and they apologized to Yang Chen, wouldn't they lose face completely?
They insulted Yang Chen, and now they had to apologize as well. Was this a joke?
If they didn't apologize, wouldn't that confirm what Yang Chen said, that they didn't truly respect Feng Xuewu?
They were all Feng Xuewu's pursuers, so how could they let her think that they didn't respect her?
Being four or five years older than Yang Chen, Feng Xuewu was naturally smart and wouldn't fail to understand Yang Chen's intention for revenge. She simply laughed lightly, her delicate laugh making everyone's hearts flutter.
Yang Chen had to admit that Feng Xuewu was indeed a beautiful woman. Compared to Gu Mingyue, Feng Xuewu had a more open and unrestrained temperament.
"Yang Chen, I hope what you said is true. If my aunt's condition doesn't improve or even worsens, I'll hold you accountable," Wang Yun Kai sternly said, unwilling to apologize to Yang Chen.
"Oh, so you really hope Madame Feng's condition doesn't get better?" Yang Chen replied lazily.
He had plenty of experience in verbal battles in his previous life. Why would he fear these youngsters?
"You, very well, Yang Chen, you just wait."
Seeing this, Feng Xuewu didn't know what to say. After all, she could only represent the Feng family, while Wang Yun Kai represented the Wang family. She couldn't order people from different tribes, so she could only say, "Little brother Yang Chen, my mother's condition is critical, I need to leave first."
"Alright, Miss Feng, take care," Yang Chen replied politely, understanding Feng Xuewu's predicament.
"Yang Chen, I really hope you're right."
"Be careful!"
One after another, threatening words fell into Yang Chen's ears.
Yang Chen didn't care and shrugged, suddenly realizing that Gu Mingyue was standing behind him, carefully holding onto his sleeve, as if afraid he would be bullied.
It was only now that those people left that Gu Mingyue finally patted her chest and nervously said, "Young Master, you..."
Frankly speaking, she felt that Yang Chen had changed significantly from before. In the past, Yang Chen wouldn't dare to talk back when facing so many people's ridicule. It was only because he had once talked back to the Wang family that he lost his family's Purple Elegance Dan Furnace. But now, he was able to fight cheerfully and confidently against a group of people, showing courage he never had before.
She felt that Yang Chen was quite lonely, as he was outnumbered. After all, he was alone, while the others were a group of pursuers who outnumbered him with their words.
Sometimes she wanted to help Yang Chen fight back, but she didn't have enough "ink in her stomach" and didn't know how to speak up.
Now, all she could do was ask, "Young Master, where should we go now?"
"We haven't gotten the Fire Red Fruit yet, now that Feng Xuewu has given up on it, we need to go back and claim it." Yang Chen walked back into the Chamber of Commerce with his hands behind his back.
Seeing that the Fire Red Fruit was still in its place, Yang Chen smiled with delight. He grabbed the fiery red fruit and straightforwardly asked, "Shopkeeper, how do you sell this Fire Red Fruit?"
Shopkeeper Zhao Xiaowen had been holding a grudge against Yang Chen. Now, seeing that Feng Xuewu hadn't taken the fruit and that Yang Chen had come back for it, he couldn't help but be furious. If it weren't for Yang Chen, wouldn't he have made a connection with Feng Xuewu by now?
What he didn't know was that without Yang Chen, he wouldn't have had a chance to build a connection at all.Zhao Xiaowen became more and more annoyed with Yang Chen. Since he had already offended Yang Chen just now, he wasn't afraid of making things worse. After all, Yang Chen was just a small figure; could he really turn the tables?
"Not for sale." Zhao Xiaowen said coldly.
"What do you mean?" Yang Chen narrowed his eyes.
Zhao Xiaowen sneered: "Isn't it clear enough? It's simple. This Fire Red Fruit, others can buy, but you, Yang Chen, I won't sell to you."
Seeing another conflict brewing, Gu Mingyue jumped in: "Is this how the Li Family Commerce Group conducts its business?"
"Heh, I am in charge of this Li Family Commerce Group. How I do business is naturally up to me. I say it's not for sale, then it's not for sale. What can you do?" Zhao Xiaowen roared, his eyes filled with mockery.
Yang Chen looked deeply at Zhao Xiaowen. He understood that this was probably Zhao Xiaowen's way of getting back at him for what had happened just now. With a smirk, he said: "Not for sale? That's fine. I originally intended to do more business with the Li Family Commerce Group. But since the shopkeeper is like this, then forget it. Mingyue, let's go!"
"Young friend, please wait!" Just as Yang Chen was about to leave, suddenly an old voice came from the depths of the Li Family Commerce Group.
The ethereal voice went straight into Yang Chen's ears, causing his footsteps, which were ready to leave, to suddenly stop.
Zhao Xiaowen was even more shocked because the owner of this voice was none other than the elder of the Li Family Commerce Group!
"Elder!" Zhao Xiaowen hurriedly shouted respectfully.
Two white-haired elders emerged from the Commerce Group's room.
These two elders were dressed in simple clothes and didn't seem to have any eye-catching features. But just standing there, they gave off a dazzling aura, as their momentum was too strong.
With just a glance, Yang Chen could more or less confirm the identities of the two men. They were most likely the true decision-makers of the Li Family Commerce Group. If his guess was correct, these two had already surpassed the Body Refining Realm and reached the Spirit Martial Realm.
The Spirit Martial Realm is a new realm that surpasses the Body Refining Realm. Upon reaching this realm, martial arts become spiritually connected, and one's strength becomes more than a hundred times stronger than during the Body Refining Realm. Almost every tribe that can survive in the Great Wild Hundred Clans has a few Spirit Martial Realm old fellows sitting around. This is the tribe's capital for survival in the Great Wilderness.
Whether it was his Yang family, the Twelve Great Tribes of the Great Wild Hundred Clans, or the Li Family Commerce Group, there must be Spirit Martial Realm practitioners.
What surprised Yang Chen was that both Spirit Martial Realm masters of the Li Family Commerce Group had shown up.
This made Yang Chen secretly speculate about the intentions of the Li Family Commerce Group.
At this moment, Zhao Xiaowen didn't even dare to breathe. With kowtowing deference, he regarded the two elders with an even greater degree of respect than he showed Feng Xuewu earlier. He knew very well that these two were truly capable of determining his life and death.
"Heh, Zhao Xiaowen, not bad. Since when has our Li Family Commerce Group allowed someone with the last name Zhao to say that our products are not for sale? Should we change the last name of our Li Family Commerce Group to Zhao? Or do you think your position as the shopkeeper is enough to decide the ownership of our products?" The white-haired elder on the left reprimanded.
"Elder, I dare not... You, you misunderstood. I just wanted to take advantage of the competition for the Fire Red Fruit to raise the price a bit and increase the profits for the Commerce Group." Under pressure, Zhao Xiaowen talked nonsense. How could he have guessed that the two elders of the Li Family were here today?
These two elders were genuine old ancestors of the Li Family, with immense strength that was absolutely top-notch among the Great Wild Hundred Clans.
Yang Chen scratched his chin and watched the scene with amusement. He was quite impressed by Zhao Xiaowen's ability to make up stories in desperation. At least the matter of the Fire Red Fruit seemed to have been well-conceived by him.
Elder Li Youyan spoke: "As for the matter of the Fire Red Fruit, I will handle it. Young friend Yang Chen, this Fire Red Fruit will be my gift to you. I just don't know if you would be willing to grace us with your presence and sit down for a while?"
Yang Chen instinctively became guarded. After all, it would be as easy as stepping on an ant for these two Spirit Martial Realm elders to kill him. His martial arts journey had just begun to show promise, and he did not wish to die here. If these two really killed him, he could guarantee that the Yang family would not turn against the Li Family Commerce Group for him—a "waste."
However, he reasoned that if the two Li Family elders really wanted to kill him, they could do so without anyone knowing, and who would dare say anything? With this in mind, Yang Chen became much more at ease.
Bowing his hands, he said: "It is my honor to be invited by the two seniors. Mingyue, you wait outside first. I'll have a few drinks with the two seniors inside! If I haven't come out after one hour, you can return to the Yang Family on your own."
Gu Mingyue didn't notice the hints hidden in their words. She just saw the two elders looking at Yang Chen with genuine appreciation and promptly responded, "Yes, Young Master."
Yang Chen sighed. Gu Mingyue was still too pure and kind-hearted by nature, so how could she know that his words were actually meant to warn her? If he didn't come out after an hour, wouldn't that mean that he had been killed, and how could he possibly come out then? By letting Gu Mingyue leave at that time, wouldn't he be saving her life?
