"This...this isn't quite right. Aren't you putting me in a difficult position by doing this?" The auction house owner's expression changed several times as he spoke with great difficulty.
Today is his opening day, and he doesn't want things to go wrong; it would be bad if he ran into trouble.
"I'm telling you, owner, can't you understand human language? My brother-in-law already said to let that person come find him. What does this have to do with you? Just mind your own business." Jiang Chen pouted and said irritably.
"Young masters, you may not know this, but this spot was not only reserved in advance, but because it's the best location, the owner paid with spirit stones. Most importantly, they are wealthy and powerful. If you two insist on going head-to-head with them, you probably won't gain anything!" The venue owner smiled wryly, no longer hiding anything, and laid his cards on the table, speaking in a serious tone.
He told the two young masters the truth for two reasons: firstly, he hoped they would back down; secondly, he was afraid that if they came, they would be unwilling, blame him for not doing things well, make a scene and demand a refund of the spirit stones, or even extort him.
"Oh, after all that talk, you've finally gotten to the point. This position requires spirit stones to be filled, right? Okay, fine. I have plenty of spirit stones. Whatever he offers, I'll offer ten times that. You don't need to feel awkward about that, right?" Gu Changqing smiled slightly and said nonchalantly.
It's just spirit stones. Even if Gu Changqing lacks everything else, he doesn't lack spirit stones.
Upon hearing Gu Changqing's words, the venue owner smiled and said, "The other party has offered one hundred top-grade spirit stones."
As soon as he finished speaking, a thousand top-grade spirit stones appeared in Gu Changqing's hand and he handed them to the venue owner.
Upon seeing this, the owner happily accepted the spirit stones.
Just then, a loud voice rang out: "Boss, why is someone sitting in my reserved seat? What does this mean?"
This man was a tall and strong young man dressed in yellow brocade robes. He gave off a very fierce and intimidating aura. In addition, there were two bodyguards in black standing beside him.
"This young master is already sitting here, and he paid ten times more spirit stones than you, so I had no choice but to let him sit here. But please don't be angry. I'll refund your spirit stones right away, and I'll arrange a better seat for you later, one that I guarantee you'll be satisfied with." The auction house owner's heart skipped a beat, but he patiently explained.
"Heh, do you think I'm short of spirit stones? You look down on me and dare to compete with me for a position? Don't you want to live? Doesn't anyone care about the order of arrival?" The man in brocade sneered, pointing at Gu Changqing with his finger, and said angrily.
"Let me give you a piece of advice: get lost, or you'll regret it!" Jiang Chen said seriously.
"What do you mean by first come, first served? None of that matters to me. If I set my sights on something, no one can take it from me. Also, I hate it when people point fingers at me. You better watch out, kid, I won't let you off the hook." Gu Changqing smiled instead of getting angry, speaking with a very assertive and unquestionable tone.
"Such arrogance! I'm not one to tolerate any dissent. You're dead today." The man in brocade robes looked fearless and extremely arrogant.
"Hehe, I'll pass those words on to you verbatim," Gu Changqing said expressionlessly.
"You're too arrogant! Can't you two see him? Kill him now!" The man in brocade robes said angrily, his face contorted with rage.
After he finished speaking, two bodyguards in black immediately produced large knives and, without saying a word, turned their fierce eyes toward Gu Changqing.
Gu Changqing snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "You're asking for death!"
He then slapped them twice on the head, making their heads spin uncontrollably several times, with cracking sounds of bones dislocating. Their heads fell off their necks, their eyes rolled back, and they were barely clinging to life.
"A mere Great Emperor's cultivation level, yet you dare to show yourself to the world?" Gu Changqing sneered, speaking expressionlessly.
In Gu Changqing's eyes, these two people's cultivation levels were extremely low. He scanned them with his divine sense and immediately saw that they were only at the Great Emperor level. Gu Changqing really couldn't be bothered with such trash.
Gu Changqing thought that the people who came here were all quite powerful, but he didn't expect it to be a mixed bag. Those with poor cultivation were really courting death, and they deserved to die.
"You, you dare hit my men! Do you believe I'll have you killed?"
The man in brocade robes angrily accused him.
Seeing this, the two bodyguards in black also started to get up from the ground.
"I don't believe it!" Gu Changqing said with a faint smile.
"Smack!!"
Before the two black-clad bodyguards could get up, Gu Changqing slapped them twice more.
With a sudden "crack," the two men's heads spun around their necks more than 180 times. Finally, their neck bones couldn't withstand the pressure, and they fell off with a thud. Their heads crashed to the ground, shattering into pieces, covered in blood and splattering everywhere.
Everyone present was stunned and shocked. My God, how could this person be so domineering and ruthless? He is a typical example of a man who is ruthless and doesn't talk much.
The man in brocade was so frightened that he trembled all over and wet himself, causing a pool of yellow, unidentified liquid to appear on the ground.
The reason he was so afraid was because his cultivation level was too low, only at the seventh level of the Cave Heaven Realm. If the other party wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as turning his hand. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine, and a trace of despair welled up in his heart.
"Husband, calm down. Don't stoop to his level. Kill two of his bodyguards to teach him a lesson. Look how scared he was that he wet his pants. It's so shameful. Let's see if he dares to be arrogant again." Jiang Qingcheng smiled slightly and said calmly.
At this moment, the auction owner also said with a smile, "Young master, the auction is about to begin. I wonder if you have finished dealing with your matters here? Once you have, the auction will officially begin."
"What's the rush? Can't you see there's still one left to deal with?" Gu Changqing glanced at the venue owner and said impatiently.
The owner of the venue was frightened by Gu Changqing's gaze. He had originally intended to say a few good words for the man in brocade to persuade Gu Changqing to release him, but now he dared not say another word, fearing that he would also be implicated, which would be a loss.
