Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Three Old Men

Lu Xiao just waited stiffly for an hour.

In the meantime, feeling a bit bored, he dragged Night Demon to play a few rounds of King’s Valley.

The process was fun, but the results were not good.

Both players were terrible, and both loved to trash-talk.

So after a few games, both their accounts were reported and banned, with a seven-day suspension before they could play again.

Lu Xiao was quite displeased, convinced it was because they couldn’t out-curse him, so why ban his account?

I was winning the arguments but still got punished.

Can’t make sense of it.

"Trash talkers can’t win so they report, what kind of rubbish is that!" Night Demon was also feeling frustrated since he hadn’t played the game before, and just when he was getting interested after a few rounds, his account was banned.

Watching Lu Xiao and Night Demon casually play games, Tian Youyu nearly lost his breath several times.

These damned guys are too arrogant! Too reckless!

When Elder Goo arrives, the first thing they’ll do is break your arms to see how you’ll play games then.

"I mean, it’s been an hour already, is that Elder Goo ever going to show up?" After pocketing his phone, Lu Xiao looked at Tian Youyu and inquired.

It had already been one hour and seventeen seconds, have you no concept of time?

Tian Youyu was just about to retort when there was a sharp ding from the elevator.

Then, an old and a young man stepped out of the elevator.

The older one looked to be about seventy, the younger one seemed just past twenty.

"Elder Goo!" Tian Youyu’s eyes immediately lit up, and he hurried over to the two of them.

As he ran, he controlled himself to cough up two mouthfuls of blood.

"What happened to you?" Goo Hong frowned upon seeing Tian Youyu’s miserable state.

He knew Tian Youyu’s strength, and under normal circumstances, those commoners outside shouldn’t be able to hurt him.

"Elder Goo, it’s him, his name is Lu Xiao! He’s the investor in White Clothes Pavilion, and he refuses to hand over the stock ownership." Tian Youyu pointed at Lu Xiao and began to complain.

Goo Hong casually glanced at Lu Xiao and said, "Young man, I’ll give you one more chance, hand over the stocks."

"I never said I wouldn’t, but if you want the stocks you need to pay, right? Not giving a dime, isn’t that robbery?"

"This is Shengjing, the center of Hua Country, don’t you know this is illegal?" Lu Xiao repeated his point.

It’s not that I’m unwilling to give it to you, it’s that you’re not following proper procedures.

You want it, you need to pay.

"Okay, I’ll give you five million, is that enough?" Goo Hong asked.

Lu Xiao: ???

"I invested fifty billion in White Clothes Pavilion, and you offer me five million? Frankly, you might as well offer nothing," Lu Xiao glanced dismissively at Goo Hong.

"Alright, let’s do it your way and give nothing. Let’s proceed with the transfer now, shall we? Otherwise, you’ll be leaving here horizontally today," Goo Hong nodded.

At Lu Xiao’s side, Night Demon was beginning to feel impatient.

"Bro, I can’t listen to this anymore, let’s just beat him up," Night Demon called out to Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao pondered for two seconds before shaking his head, "No rush, let’s wait a bit longer; they should be almost here."

"Who are they?" Night Demon didn’t quite understand.

"The people in charge."

Goo Hong also heard Lu Xiao and Night Demon’s conversation and didn’t care at all about whoever they mentioned was coming.

Just a bunch of outsiders, whom could they possibly bring?

"Still keeping your hopes up? Fine, then I’ll just wait with you for your people to arrive," Goo Hong found a chair to sit down.

Tian Youyu and the young man who came with Goo Hong stood one on each side behind the chair.

A few minutes later, the elevator dinged once again.

All eyes turned towards the elevator.

Three old men walked out of the elevator.

Two looked around sixty or seventy, and the third was visibly older, probably over a hundred years old.

"Hahaha, Lu Xiao, are these the people you were waiting for? A bunch of old guys?"

"These look like they’re on their last legs; one foot in the grave already, right?" Tian Youyu started to mock openly.

Goo Hong also shook his head; he assumed these old men were so-called masters or experts from the outside world, which was why Lu Xiao had called them here.

But, would they be of any use?

The Northern Territory and the outside world are not on the same level.

"White Tiger Team’s Mo Qu, at your service, Team Leader Lu."

"White Tiger Team’s Zhai Sheng, at your service, Team Leader Lu." The two old men around sixty or seventy, upon seeing Lu Xiao, bent over to pay their respects.

Lu Xiao smiled and nodded; he didn’t expect Mo Qu to come as well.

He had traded barbs with Mo Qu during the Seventeenth Bureau’s recruitment test match, but after clearing up misunderstandings, they got on quite well and even added each other on WeChat.

"Team Leader Lu, I’m Mo Changhe, Mo Qu’s uncle, like Mo Qu, from the Tiandang Mountain Divine Sword Sect."
