He was furious: "You scoundrel, how dare you!"
Sun Ji's anger level increased by 555+555+555...
Yang Long's anger level increased by 598...
However, considering the fat Venerable's strength, he looked at the other party and said, "I hope the fat Venerable will uphold justice!"
The fat Venerable was at his wit's end and could only look at Zu An: "You are making a move in front of me now. Isn't that a bit too disrespectful to Xiaoyao Tower?"
Zu An replied calmly, "Our dynasty governs the country with filial piety. If one insults one's parents, even the national law may be used to retaliate. If one does not take action, one is considered disloyal, unfilial, and unjust. Are the rules of Xiaoyao Tower more important than the national law?"
The fat Venerable One gasped. Who was this guy? How dare he speak like that?
The Xiaoyao Tower is clearly engaged in shady business, and he actually brought up national law—it's ridiculous. The key issue is that he doesn't dare openly refute it, otherwise it would be tantamount to rebellion.
So he decided to stand by and watch, letting them handle their own affairs. But Zu'an wouldn't let him off the hook: "Fat Venerable, according to the agreement we just made, they should apologize to me now."
Sun Ji finally recovered, and upon hearing this, he almost fainted from anger. "I was hit and I still have to apologize to him?"
Anger points from Sun Ji: +888 +888 +888...
He was about to curse, but remembering what had just happened, he swallowed the words back.
Zuan continued to look at the fat Venerable: "Fat Venerable, you were the witness to the bet we just made."
The fat Venerable was also in a bind, so he could only look at Sun Ji and the other man with a gloomy face: "A bet is a bet, and you two should apologize!"
"What!" Sun Ji jumped up. "Do you even know who my father is? I..."
He was about to speak again when Yang Long stopped him: "Let me apologize on behalf of the young master."
He was terrified that his young master might offend a ninth-rank expert with his insolence, which would truly be the end for him.
Zuan said calmly, "Don't rush, take it one at a time. I just said that both of you need to apologize."
Sun Ji was furious. Yang Long, who was standing next to him, pulled him back and said through telepathy, "Young master, don't be impulsive. A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. We'll tear this man apart after we leave Xiaoyao Tower."
At this moment, the fat Venerable One beside him also released a ninth-grade aura, clearly displeased that his dignity had been repeatedly challenged today.
Sun Ji glared at Zu An with resentment, and even hated the Fat Venerable. However, he still followed Yang Long's advice, casually cupped his hands to Zu An, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, "I'm sorry."
Anger from Sun Ji: +912 +912 +912...
Zuan picked at his ear: "What did you say? I didn't hear you."
"Are you kidding me?" Sun Ji's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
“Your voice is so soft, how could I possibly hear you?” Zuan said calmly.
Yang Long quietly tugged at Sun Ji's sleeve. Sun Ji took a deep breath and said expressionlessly, "I'm sorry!"
He was furious. He had never suffered such a humiliation in all these years. He would make him pay a hundredfold later!
Sun Ji's anger level increased by 999+999+999...
Yang Long, standing to the side, also swallowed his anger and apologized. He was extremely aggrieved. He, a dignified seventh-rank expert, had to apologize to a young upstart. He would show him his methods later.
Zuan then smiled and said, "Good boy, be low-key when you're out and about in the future, so you don't offend the wrong people."
These remarks drew a sidelong glance from the Fat Venerable, and the others in the room also looked at them strangely, thinking that these words would not be out of place if applied to themselves.
Sun Ji and Yang Long didn't stay in the room to make a fool of themselves; they simply turned and went back to their own private room.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, the fat Venerable One breathed a sigh of relief and then said loudly, "There was a little commotion just now, but fortunately it's over. Now let's continue the auction for the next item—the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife!"
