Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar-Chapter 1100 - 481: Continue Speaking (2)
Accompanied by the crisp sound of footsteps, in the underground secret room, those slaves imprisoned in the cells cried out for survival.
However, they did not notice that the buyer who came this time to select goods had a different sort of greed in their eyes compared to those regular customers.
That look wasn't for picking goods, but for... choosing ingredients.
...
"Huff—"
Qu Xiangnan, as fat as a pig, had just completed a difficult yet exhilarating task.
He glanced back at the woman already sprawled on the bed and casually tossed a blanket over her.
Goods that catch a cold could not be sold for a good price.
Today was his seventy-second wedding, but definitely not his last.
Even if the bride was paralyzed in bed without the strength to rise, it wouldn't stop him from continuing to hold the wedding.
Because the wedding was just an excuse, a reason to gather most people here.
The transaction beneath the wedding was the true meaning of this wedding.
Qu Gang was a very mature gang, having been in this business for many years.
Except for some major clients requiring Qu Xiangnan to personally host them, other small businesses were mostly handled by his subordinates.
In other words, even if he didn't show up today, his gang would still see a considerable profit on its books.
This was the good part of not dealing with the Foolish Underworld.
Qu Xiangnan had seen many occasions; he knew how troublesome it was to want to do some shady business under the control of the Foolish Underworld in those towns.
Those towns were quite eager to appear diligent for surface level security.
Businesses that can't see the light, like his, were particularly suppressed.
Without some background, without some skills, one simply couldn't establish it.
Even if one did establish it, pressed by those hypocrites, there was still no day in sight.
But Sunset City was different.
The Foolish Underworld in Sunset City had long been abandoned, and no matter how big the name of a three-five person organization, it was useless.
In such barbaric growth, as long as you don't touch certain people's sore spots, you could definitely thrive.
Now, Qu Gang was the best example.
Qu Xiangnan occasionally thought of cleaning up his identity and doing legitimate business.
But sometimes, in the world, one can't control one's own life.
Since stepping into this line, some things had already moved beyond his control.
Especially with some alien clients, he couldn't afford to offend them.
Qu Xiangnan didn't believe that this business of theirs with demons in it wouldn't be known by people from Qingling Taoist Temple or the Seven Great Families.
Yet since none of them took any action, why would he self-destruct his financial path?
If the sky were to fall, there would be tall figures to hold it up. If demons really start misbehaving, that would be the problem for the Seven Great Families or people from Qingling Taoist Temple to worry about, not for a businessman like him to find solutions.
"Ah Jian, what hour is it."
Qu Xiangnan shouted towards the door.
Although the bride didn't need to go to the hall to appear, he, as the Qu Gang Leader, still had to meet people.
What startled Qu Xiangnan was that Anh Jian, who was always honest and straightforward, did not reply to him today.
The nerve that had always been sharp immediately made Qu Xiangnan react.
Without even putting on pants, he suddenly jumped out of the window!
But the unexpected happened so seamlessly.
His overly fat body got stuck at the window, unable to jump out instantly.
Bam!!
The door was kicked open.
The woman on the bed suddenly woke up in shock, still dazed, as if she was dreaming.
Before she fully woke up, the man who kicked open the door already took a big step towards the stuck Qu Xiangnan at the window, reached out, and dragged him violently back into the room!
Bam!
The fat body made a heavy sound when it hit the floor.
The woman on the bed was fully awake by this time, ready to scream piercingly, only to be chopped unconscious by the intruder's hand.
"Spare me! Master, spare me!!"
Qu Xiangnan was already kowtowing.
Maybe back in the day, he still had the courage to fight for life and combat skills.
But after so many years of ease, his earlier ambition was gone, leaving only a body full of fat and valuing his life greatly.
"For Master to silently deal with the Blades of the Eightfold Horizon [Sword Breaking Star], you must at least be a Wood Realm expert! Why trouble a small character like me!"
Qu Xiangnan cried and shouted, fearing his voice was not loud enough.
Until Fang Yu's hand slowly pinched his pig-like neck, gradually sinking into the flesh, it was only then that he showed terror, hastily lowering his volume.
"Master... Master! Let's talk this out! Master, anything you want, just speak up. Whatever I have, I will offer all to you!"
Wealth, power, lust, Qu Xiangnan had indulged in all.
He wasn't afraid of the opponent having desires but was terrified if they had none. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Qu Xiangnan remembered his closest encounter with death was with a reckless youth!
A disciple of the White Lotus Sect, for a chance encounter woman, played hero and almost got him killed.
As the saying goes, it's not fear for fools with brains, but for fools with strength!
Back then, Qu Xiangnan was terrified, more than the current situation, but fortunately, he escaped from that disaster.
This time, he aimed to escape the second disaster.
The reason Qu Xiangnan was less fearful than when he faced the White Lotus Sect disciple was because the youth before him only caught him, instead of immediately attacking.
It indicated... the opponent sought something!
And he must have something to fulfill the opponent's need!
"You're quite sensible."
Fang Yu chuckled while patting Qu Xiangnan's fat face.
"I do have something to ask you."
Qu Xiangnan grasped at the straw for life, anxiously saying: "Please, master! I will answer anything!"
Qu Gang wasn't overly strong, at least not any Tom, Dick, or Harry could enter, not to mention silently dealing with his close guard Wood Realm expert Ah Jian, showcasing the visitor's outstanding power.
So, he couldn't play tricks, at least not while his life was in their grasp.
"Actually, it's quite simple. I know what business you Qu Gang are in. I just want to ask if recently, your Qu Gang has brought in any goods from the Jiujie Mountain area?"
Jiujie Mountain...
That was very Pang Tong.
But just from this sentence, Qu Xiangnan already deduced that this master came to find someone.
Not revenge, nor protecting flowers, which made things easier.
Qu Xiangnan's gaze swept over the unconscious woman on the bed, feeling slightly reassured inside.
Once bitten by a snake, ten years of fearing ropes.
Harassed by the reckless youth of the White Lotus Sect, Qu Xiangnan had developed a psychological shadow regarding Flower Protectors.
As for whether any goods came from the Jiujie Mountain area...
Qu Xiangnan cautiously looked towards Fang Yu: "M-Master, I haven't managed those matters for a long time already..."
"Oh..." Fang Yu's tone drew, suddenly tightening Qu Xiangnan's neck.
"Then you're useless, huh."
Qu Xiangnan:!!!
Qu Xiangnan was instantly choked, eyes widening, his face turned pig-liver colored.
He never imagined that the master would lower the hand just as suddenly, not even preparing to haggle.
Frightened, he raised both hands instantly.
"Ma-Master! I manage! I still manage!"
Even knowing the other purposely left space for him to speak, Qu Xiangnan still desperately pushed out the words, voice sharp as an eunuch.
Fang Yu let go.
And patted Qu Xiangnan's shoulder.
"So, Qu Gang Leader remembers whether Qu Gang has recently brought in goods from the Jiujie Mountain area?"
Face to face with the smiling youth, sweat broke out on Qu Xiangnan's forehead.
He opened his mouth, throat moving up and down, struggling to utter two words.
"Yes."
As the sounds faded, he tightly monitored Fang Yu's facial expression.
However... the other party, let alone expression change, didn't alter even the half-closed eyes.
Yet, the next words allowed Qu Xiangnan's suspended heart to settle.
"Continue."
