The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 2114 - 2103: Is This Enough?

Bai Ling City.

The main hall of the headquarters of Tian Shun Auction House.

Yun Rong had some acquaintance with the ancestor of Tian Shun Auction House. After he presented the VIP token of Tian Shun Auction House, their group was smoothly invited to a quiet and elegant lounge within the auction house.

This lounge is usually not open to outsiders. Only those holding this special VIP token would be arranged here because this special VIP token was personally ordered by the ancestor of Tian Shun Auction House back in the day.

Yun Rong, along with Ye Chenfeng and others, sat down on the chairs in the lounge as the personnel from Tian Shun Auction House, who led them here, respectfully brewed a pot of tea for each of them.

Not long after.

A hearty laugh echoed in the lounge, as an old man with an immortal air stepped in. His eyes focused on Yun Rong, and he laughed, "Old Yun, what brings you to Bai Ling City to find me today? Is there some business you want to discuss with me?"

Yun Rong replied with a playful scold, "Old Liang, you’re right. I’m indeed here to discuss business with you today."

This old man was none other than Liang Chennan, the ancestor of Tian Shun Auction House, whose strength was at the initial stage of the seventh level of the Heavenly God Realm.

As soon as the word "business" was mentioned, a gleam flashed in Liang Chennan’s eyes.

The matter of auctioning thirty ordinary Entry-to-Heaven Pills was entirely handed over to Yun Rong by Ye Chenfeng, who chose to quietly observe from the sidelines.

Moreover, Ye Chenfeng’s strength was not enough to catch Liang Chennan’s attention, so in his eyes, Ye Chenfeng was probably no different from an average passerby.

Liang Chennan sat down on a chair beside Yun Rong and said, "Old Yun, you know my nature. Although we have some friendship, in business, I won’t agree to any deal that incurs a loss or doesn’t profit."

Yun Rong had predicted this result long beforehand. To put it plainly, Liang Chennan was as stingy as they come. Trying to get something from him was harder than reaching the heavens. Otherwise, Tian Shun Auction House wouldn’t have become the number one auction house in Tian Xuan Realm.

Unhurriedly, Yun Rong took a sip of tea and said, "Old Liang, this time you must lower the handling fee because what I have in hand can greatly enhance the prestige of Tian Shun Auction House."

Liang Chennan shook his head repeatedly and said, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. Old Yun, do you have anything worthwhile? I think you’re here just to bluff me, right? The auction handling fee cannot be reduced by a single penny, as for the promotion of your auction items, it depends on what you come up with."

Just as Yun Rong was about to mention the Entry-to-Heaven Pills.

Suddenly, ten figures flooded into the lounge. Zhao Xingtu, Leng Zuolong, Liang Xiaomei, and the other ten deputy pavilion masters appeared in the lounge. Upon seeing Ye Chenfeng, they couldn’t help but be slightly taken aback.

Ye Chenfeng didn’t expect to encounter Zhao Xingtu and others at Tian Shun Auction House again so soon. He stood up and explained, "Mr. Zhao, we’re here to auction some items."

Upon hearing this, Liang Xiaomei’s eyes fixed on her brother Liang Chennan, knowing full well how stingy he could be. She questioned, "Chennan, waive all their handling fees for me, did you hear?"

Liang Chennan had always feared his sister since childhood, so with a pained expression, he said, "Sis, are you really my sister? You should be considering Tian Shun Auction House too."

Seeing Liang Xiaomei’s expression turning uglier, Liang Chennan quickly switched his tone, "Alright, alright, this time Old Yun gets away cheaply. I won’t charge any handling fees."

Liang Chennan knew how terrifying his sister could be when she went berserk.

Knowing that Liang Chennan was Liang Xiaomei’s brother astonished Yun Rong and Ye Chenfeng, even Yun Rong, who knew Liang Chennan somewhat, was unaware of this.

If they had known earlier that Liang Xiaomei was Liang Chennan’s sister, there wouldn’t have been any need to trouble themselves coming to Tian Shun Auction House.

Feeling a sense of schadenfreude, Yun Rong said, "Old Liang, I’ve finally managed to get something off your stingy self this time."

Yun Rong was quite pleased, given how tightfisted Liang Chennan could be. Yun Rong had never managed to benefit from Liang Chennan before, despite knowing him for so long.

Liang Chennan’s shrewd nature was deeply ingrained in him and was unlikely to change.

Liang Xiaomei ignored Liang Chennan’s change in expression and continued, "Chennan, contact all Tian Shun Auction House branches in the Tian Xuan Realm immediately and have them gather all extraordinary Divine Soul-type spiritual treasures from their branches to be given away."

This made Liang Chennan anxious. Waiving Yun Rong’s handling fees was one thing, but gathering all the Divine Soul-type spiritual treasures from Tian Shun Auction House wasn’t a trivial matter.

Tian Shun Auction House had a very deep foundation, and each branch would more or less own some precious Spirit Grass, some of which were rare Divine Soul-type treasures.

Before Liang Chennan could refuse, Liang Xiaomei added, "Not only should all Divine Soul treasures from Tian Shun Auction House be gathered, but you should also try your best to obtain more of them, as they are to be given away."

Not only must all Divine Soul-type treasures from Tian Shun Auction House be given away!

They even had to proactively collect more Divine Soul-type treasures to give away?

Such an undertaking could likely result in an unimaginable loss for Tian Shun Auction House.

Liang Chennan said, "Sis, I don’t agree with this. Who are you planning to give all those Divine Soul-type treasures to?"

Liang Xiaomei’s eyes turned to Ye Chenfeng.

Liang Chennan, upon seeing this, said, "Sis, you’re not planning to give them to this kid, are you? Have you been tricked by him?"

With a stern look, Liang Xiaomei commanded without doubt, "Why? If I tell you to give them, then give them. Don’t be unaware of the blessing you’re in, apologize immediately."

Feeling frustrated, Liang Chennan couldn’t sense anything special about Ye Chenfeng, who seemed just like an initial stage Divinity Transformation Realm kid. He couldn’t fathom what had swayed his sister.

Seeing that Liang Chennan remained unmoved, Liang Xiaomei emphasized her tone, "You’re not even listening to me now? Do you know who this so-called ’kid’ is? He is currently the only Pavilion Master of our Array Magic Pavilion, and we ten pavilion masters have all demoted ourselves to deputy pavilion masters."

"The only Chief Pavilion Master in Array Magic Pavilion, is that status enough?"

Liang Chennan thought his ears must have malfunctioned, as even Xue Wanqing, Uncle Zhao, Uncle Li, and Qin Zhou were stupefied. They hadn’t been around to hear the explanation from Ye Chenfeng!

In disbelief, Liang Chennan said, "Sis, are you kidding me?"

At this, Zhao Xingtu frowned and said, "When do we have time to joke with you? This man is indeed our Chief Pavilion Master of the Array Magic Pavilion—you can’t even compare to his expertise in formations combined!"

Leng Zuolong added grumpily, "Why babble on? Old Liang, you’d better teach your brother some manners in the future."

The other seven deputy pavilion masters chimed in. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"Liang Chennan, stop putting on airs in front of us. Were it not for your sister, we wouldn’t bother with you. And to refer to our Pavilion Master as ’kid’? Do you have no respect for Array Magic Pavilion?"

"Indeed! We’ve provided Tian Shun Auction House with plenty of aid over these years. I say we should just dismantle Tian Shun Auction House."

...

Understand that the ten pavilion masters had rather peculiar tempers and were unlikely to show respect or courtesy to Liang Chennan.

Liang Xiaomei said, "Did you hear what they said? I’ll join them in dismantling the auction house if it comes to that."

Seeing that all ten pavilion masters acknowledged Ye Chenfeng as the Chief Pavilion Master, Liang Chennan, used to their unyielding character, still found it amazing. Could a mere kid in the initial stage of Divinity Transformation Realm surpass the ten pavilion masters in formation expertise?

"Everyone, no need to rush! I never said I disagreed. Providing some assistance to the Chief Pavilion Master of Array Magic Pavilion is an unshakable duty of Tian Shun Auction House." Saying this, Liang Chennan felt his heart bleed inside! Their Tian Shun Auction House was about to suffer considerable losses, which might take decades to recover from.
