Imperial Treasure-Chapter 1033 - 617: Treasure Playing Convention (Part 2)

Chapter 1033: Chapter 617: Treasure Playing Convention (Part 2)

What a pity for these two to be orphans; if they were from a prominent family, they might have made a name for themselves long ago.

"Teacher, I am Seo Ziling, and this is Kou Zhong. We are grateful for your help in saving our lives, and we will repay this great kindness with our lives in the future."

The speaker was a slender young man with a handsome face and an aura of elegance and calm. Though still in his youth, he already possessed a unique temperament.

For someone raised in the city streets to develop such a demeanor, it’s evident this young man is indeed extraordinary.

Sui Yi paid particular attention to the young man’s eyes.

You can tell a lot about a person by their eyes.

Clean, calm, wise.

But these two names...

Sui Yi suddenly paused while drinking tea.

"Seo Ziling... Kou Zhong?"

"Yes," Seo Ziling and Kou Zhong both nodded in unison. The latter was naturally vibrant but had become quite quiet and well-behaved under Seo Ziling’s guidance.

They did not expect this usually indifferent teacher to suddenly repeat their names.

"Teacher... is there a problem?" Kou Zhong couldn’t help but ask.

Seo Ziling would never ask actively, but since Kou Zhong asked, he let it be. He looked at Sui Yi, wondering if the other person was going to ask them to repay the favor by doing something.

Silence.

After a while, Sui Yi said, "Nothing... it just sounds familiar."

Gong Jiu seemed to have mentioned something.

In no time, Kou Zhong and Seo Ziling left the house.

As soon as they got outside, Kou Zhong couldn’t hold back: "This Mr. Sui is really strange and so cold, didn’t you notice? He didn’t give Sister Zhenzhen even a smile... poor Sister Zhenzhen being so gentle with him."

"After all, he is our benefactor, so watch your words... besides, he’s not that bad with Sister Zhenzhen; otherwise, he wouldn’t..."

The usually insightful Seo Ziling really couldn’t understand what kind of person this Mr. Sui was or his attitude towards Sister Zhenzhen.

Although both of them thought that if a man already had a gentle woman like Wei Zhenzhen by his side, he should treat her well and not be so cold.

"If it were me, I would conquer the world, and give all the best views, food, and entertainment in the world to my woman..."

Kou Zhong laughed, hands on hips, full of ambition.

Seo Ziling gave him a speechless look, "First, you need a woman, then a kingdom. Lest you forget, if you hadn’t talked big that day and provoked that tough guy, we wouldn’t have been chased by Big Boss Yan’s men and almost beaten to death."

Just thinking about this made him feel inexplicably upset.

Kou Zhong sulked, "I was just curious about the treasures in Baonong Studio~~ I never expected that guy to be so rude... but Ziling, we are still short of money to join the Righteous Army, and now Li Zitong..."

"If we could become disciples of Shi Long, it would be great; it’s better than secretly learning each day... although we’ve made some progress, ultimately it’s just stealing, and his ultimate skills are not for us to learn."

The two of them walked farther as they talked.

Little did they know that their conversation was overheard by Sui Yi.

Shi Long?

Fortunately, the name wasn’t very familiar.

On the day of the Treasure Playing Convention, Baonong Hall specially booked the largest Wind Moon House in Yangzhou City. The place was festively decorated, the air filled with lively conversations. Sui Yi went alone, among some of the wealthiest and most powerful in Yangzhou City, with just a simple long sword at his waist that attracted little attention.

——Even a waiter was dressed more decently.

Fortunately, there were many simply dressed martial artists there.

For example, the person who walked a step ahead of Sui Yi into the courtyard,

dressed in black, with a sturdy physique and a wide short sword hanging from his back that was even wider than Sui Yi’s waist, striding boldly, kicking up dust with each step.

What a burly man!

Must be over six and a half feet tall.

This man walked slowly in front of Sui Yi, and when they reached the courtyard, a slender man beside him took out two invitation cards.

"Wen Liu, the Green Wave, and Wen Tao, the Python-Headed, paying a visit."

These two were evidently quite famous, known initially as water bandits operating within the Yangzhou waterways, who later encountered some opportunity, trained in good martial arts, and left the bandit life to make a name for themselves in the Jianghu. Notably, the two brothers look entirely different from each other.

Both of them have considerable inner strength.

In this world, they are considered top-tier within the second rate; Sui Yi had lately figured out the hierarchy of martial strength in this world.

Undoubtedly, it goes from inferior, third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, minor sect, Great Grandmaster, Minor Sect Leader, to the ultimate Grand Sect Leader.

Sui Yi hadn’t encountered or investigated anything above a Minor Grandmaster, but knew that martial arts aristocrats like Wanwan in the Martial Arts World were top-tier experts, only considered average within the Minor Grandmaster level.

A Minor Grandmaster corresponds to S-level.

Then pushed back, A-level corresponds to first-rate, B-level to second-rate.

Thus, these two are considered top B-level.

After these two handed over their invitations, Sui Yi also handed over his.

"Ah, Mr. Sui!"

Jia Xing’s voice echoed, and Sui Yi looked up to see Jia Xing, known for his social skills, enthusiastically greeting him among a group of wealthy merchants, which Sui Yi couldn’t pretend not to see.

Especially since Jia Xing actively approached.

"Ah, Mr. Sui, I knew you would come today. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the highly skilled Mr. Sui..."

Evidently, Jia Xing had already spread the word about Sui Yi’s astonishing medical skills, hence these usually haughty, big-bellied businessmen immediately brightened up and greeted him warmly.

Ah, a good doctor means life-saving!

A good doctor could save many lives of the entire family, money couldn’t buy that! Can’t be tricked into a bad deal! Sigh (To be continued.
