...
It would take at least ten days to forge an A-grade spiritual weapon, even with Gu Yunlan's full effort. So after the deal was settled, Shen Qian didn't linger and politely declined Gu Yunlan's offer to see him off. He then left the workshop with Dao Jiu and Wan Ning.
With the A-grade psionic weapon secured, Shen Qian was in a fairly good mood. However, this mood was short-lived, ending just as he stepped out of the Fengyun Blacksmith Shop.
Shen Qian frowned as he looked at the unfamiliar young man blocking his way and his companions behind him.
"Who are you?" Shen Qian searched his memory and confirmed that he had never seen this young man before.
"And who are you?" Ye Shicong stared at Shen Qian and sneered, "You dare to steal my thunder? Have you thought about the consequences?"
"I don't care who you are, I don't understand what you're saying."
Shen Qian didn't know where the young man's hostility came from, but he certainly didn't have the desire to investigate.
"She certainly has a sharp tongue."
The humor that Chen Qian spoke was naturally an insult to Ye Shicong, and the coldness in his eyes intensified.
However, making a move in the psionic market would inevitably cause some trouble, so he was in no hurry to act.
"What the hell are you pretending to be stupid for? If it weren't for that monkey on your shoulder eavesdropping on our conversation, would Master Gu have let you in?"
A boy standing nearby angrily rebuked.
Shen Qian frowned. "What conversation?"
"Caught red-handed, still trying to deny it?"
Ye Shicong stared at the small metal knife in Shen Qian's hand and said coldly.
That small metal knife was Gu Yunlan's exclusive token. By obtaining this knife before the storm, it was equivalent to possessing an A-grade psionic weapon.
The thought that Shen Qian had gotten a good deal using information he had obtained through his connections made Ye Shicong unable to suppress his jealousy.
Shen Qian's thoughts raced. From the other party's few words and the information Emperor Monkey had revealed to him when he entered the inner courtyard, he already understood what was going on.
"You've misunderstood. I was able to have Master Gu forge weapons for me because of my own abilities. As for the details, I'm too lazy to go into them... That's all, make way."
He said calmly before sinking in.
Too lazy to say more?
Shen Qian's arrogant attitude enraged the group of teenagers, who instinctively looked at Ye Shicong.
Ye Shicong seemed to laugh in exasperation, and resumed his condescending attitude, saying slowly and deliberately, "My surname is Ye, and my name is Ye Shicong."
"so what?"
Shen Qian felt that this person seemed to have some serious illness, and his patience was almost worn out.
I don't care if you're pretending you've never heard of me.
Ye Shicong said slowly, "But now I'm giving you two choices."
Shen Qian smiled and said, "Tell me about it."
"First, hand over the knife in your hand and the monkey on your shoulder, and I can pretend that nothing happened today."
Ye Shicong flicked the dust off his sleeves.
“I choose second place,” Shen Qian said directly.
"Aren't you going to listen to what the second option is?" Ye Shicong was taken aback.
"It's nothing more than 'what will happen if I don't pay you,' but your tone is too pretentious, and I don't have the patience to listen to it anymore," Shen Qian laughed. "So I'll just tell you what I chose."
"Or...would you like to hear what my options are?"
Chen Qian suddenly changed the subject.
"Um?"
Before Ye Shicong could react, Shen Qian had already shouted out loud.
"I'm only giving you one choice, and that is... get out!"
"you……"
Ye Shicong's face first turned pale, then quickly turned bluish-red.
He was so ashamed and angry because just now, when Shen Qian shouted out, he didn't know why he subconsciously took a step back.
This is a tremendous disgrace.
At this moment, all of Ye Shicong's concerns vanished. It was just a bit of a hassle, so what!
With a wave of his hand, his impatient companions grinned and lunged at Shen Qian. One young man, however, gave a lewd smile and grabbed at Wan Ning.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Boom! Boom...
After a chaotic and endless series of sounds, dust filled the air, and then the long street fell silent.
When the dust settled and the scene became clear, all the onlookers were stunned and bewildered, completely unaware of what had just happened.
Even the most discerning martial artist could only see a few dazzling afterimages.
A few seconds later, Ye Shicong swallowed and looked around.
The five companions who made the move were in different positions. Some were hanging from the roof beams, some had half their bodies sunk into the ground, and some fell from the sky onto the street with a loud "bang," their fate unknown.
Two other people are still missing.
At least within sight, there was no trace of those two people.
"You, you..."
Ye Shicong turned his gaze back to the towering man who had appeared before him, and finally uttered the last two words with difficulty.
"Mountains and Seas!"
Mountains and seas are nothing special to Ye Shicong, who is a man who has never seen the world.
But this was the first time he had faced a mountain and sea that harbored murderous intent.
This kind of imposing aura, so powerful from such a distance, would be impossible for even the toughest man in the world to remain unmoved.
Ye Shicong had a strong feeling that the mountains and seas before him might really kill him, if only a single word or even a glance from the boy who hadn't moved an inch in the distance.
