Chapter 100 - 100 100 Show of Force when Dismounting

Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Show of Force when Dismounting Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Show of Force when Dismounting Manager Li in the white robe fixed his gaze, his smile widening.

He paused intentionally before bowing and said, “This gentleman must be Young Master Jing from Donglin City, right?”

He had paused to see if Jing Yan would take the initiative to greet him.

Seeing that Jing Yan had no such intention, he then smiled and bowed as he spoke.

Although the smile was clear, the insincerity was evident to anyone observing.

Moreover, there was no real respect in his words.

“Manager Li, haha, I have heard much about you!” Jing Yan said, narrowing his eyes slightly as he also bowed lightly.

Although he was not fond of this white-robed martial artist, Jing Yan did not wish to waste time on such a minor character, especially since the negotiation had not yet begun.

If it were possible to avoid conflict, he preferred it that way, considering that Liu Daquan still had to operate in Black Wind Town.

Once a battle began, the impact would be significant, and Jing Yan could not always be in Black Wind Town to cover for the Liu family.

“Family Head Liu, Young Master Jing, please!” Manager Li stepped back half a step, inviting Jing Yan and Liu Daquan inside.

“As for the others, please wait outside.

Our Sky Wolf Village has limited space, and too many people would make it crowded!” Manager Li’s eyes flickered as he spoke to the Liu family guards behind Jing Yan and Liu Daquan.

That statement was clearly a blatant lie!

How could a mere twenty or so people make the Sky Wolf Village crowded?

“Oh, Manager Li is right; there’s no need for everyone to go in.

You two, come with me.” Liu Daquan quickly processed the situation.

Without high-level guards to protect him, he felt insecure.

So, right after Manager Li finished speaking, he pointed to the two strongest Ninth Layer Heaven Martial Artists.

For Jing Yan, it didn’t matter whether these guards followed him inside.

He felt that if a real fight broke out, these guards wouldn’t be dependable.

Even if some were loyal, they would likely be in the minority; most would choose to flee to save their own lives.

Manager Li simply smiled and did not add anything more.

He led Jing Yan and four others into the Sky Wolf Village.

The front part of the village featured a sizable square.

Upon entering, Jing Yan immediately noticed some chairs arranged on the opposite side of the square.

Several figures were already seated there, their gazes converging on Jing Yan and Liu Daquan as they walked in from outside the village.

Behind these seated individuals stood dozens of black-clothed martial artists, each wielding weapons, their presence formidable.

“What a grand setup!” Jing Yan chuckled.

He thought to himself that it seemed Sky Wolf Gang was prepared to turn hostile at any moment; acting in this square was clearly more convenient than doing so in a room.

Following Manager Li, they gradually made contact at close range.

Liu Daquan’s face turned slightly pale as he introduced, “I have seen several masters before.

This is Jing Yan, the young master from the Jing Family of Donglin City.”

What Liu Daquan depended on now was Jing Yan’s identity, but he was utterly unsure.

After all, the Jing Family was from Donglin City, not Duyang City.

If it were a major family from Duyang City, would these Sky Wolf Gang masters dare to remain seated like that without even standing up?

“Hahaha, Young Master Jing, I have long admired you; please, have a seat!” Miao Yue, the master of the Sky Wolf Gang, laughed heartily as he gestured to the chairs opposite them for Jing Yan.

“I have also heard much about the distinguished masters of the Sky Wolf Gang.

Seeing you today, indeed, you are as vigorous as dragons and as fierce as tigers, commanding respect.” Jing Yan bowed and then proceeded to sit down on one of the chairs to the side.

“Family Head Liu, please take a seat!” Miao Yue then addressed Liu Daquan.

At that moment, Liu Daquan’s forehead was slick with sweat, his heart growing more uneasy, fearing that a significant incident was about to unfold.

He glanced briefly at the two Ninth Layer Heaven guards following him, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself as he sat next to Jing Yan.

Having two Ninth Layer Heaven guards should be enough to withstand some combat, he thought.

“Hehe, let me introduce someone.

This gentleman here is Mr.

Wei Chongyang, Supervisor of the Wei Family from Duyang City,” Miao Yue said, introducing a middle-aged man in a golden robe sitting in the same row.

Except for the three main members of the Sky Wolf Gang, this middle-aged man known as Wei Chongyang was also seated there.

Miao Yue squinted, fixing his gaze on Jing Yan.

Yesterday, when Jing Yan had just arrived in Black Wind Town, Miao Yue was somewhat worried, but after gathering information, he found out Jing Yan was just a martial artist under twenty years old, which reassured him.

How important could such a young martial artist be?

Even if he truly were a Jing Family Disciple, he certainly wasn’t a significant one.

If his status had been high, would the Jing Family allow him to travel alone across cities, from Donglin City to Duyang City, and especially to the chaotic Black Wind Town?

And without any guards?

High-level Jing Family individuals would not feel at ease letting an important family son come over by himself like this.

Obviously not!

So, Miao Yue became quite confident.

He believed Jing Yan might be part of the Jing Family, but he was surely a minor character from a side branch, possibly even unknown to the Jing Family’s higher echelons.

Liu Daquan was merely using this youngster named Jing Yan to flex some muscle, trying to intimidate him.

With this thought, Miao Yue’s insidious gaze flitted over Liu Daquan.

Upon hearing Miao Yue’s introduction, Liu Daquan shuddered, aghast as he looked at Wei Chongyang.

Jing Yan might not know about the Wei Family, but Liu Daquan did.

The Wei Family, though not a top-tier family in Duyang City, was certainly considered second-tier.

Such a family supervisor obviously held a substantial status.

Unexpectedly, the Sky Wolf Gang had managed to invite such a figure to bolster their position.

What Liu Daquan didn’t know was that Miao Yue slightly regretted having Wei Chongyang attend.

If he had known that Jing Yan was just a fledgling youngster, he wouldn’t have gone to great lengths to invite Wei Chongyang.

He had invited Wei Chongyang a month ago as a precautionary measure against any high-ranking individuals from the Jing Family that might have come.

Since everyone was already here, albeit seemingly unneeded now, he could not simply waste the tens of thousands of Spirit Stones spent; thus, he still had Wei Chongyang appear in this negotiation.

“Supervisor Wei, good to meet you!” Liu Daquan quickly stood up to greet Wei Chongyang with respect.

“Hmm!” Wei Chongyang merely grunted casually from his nose.

Then, his gaze shifted sharply to Jing Yan, his eyes emitting a cold light, his aura tensing slightly.

Jing Yan’s lack of any reaction upon hearing his title clearly displeased him.

“Ignorant little brat!” Wei Chongyang thought coldly to himself, his lips curling into a slow, cold sneer as he chuckled softly.
