Chapter 540 – The Miserable Guard (1/2)
Chapter 540 - The Miserable Guard
In front of the Heavenly Tower’s main entrance, two extremely burly men could be seen standing; one on each side. They were both Combat Soul warriors. Upon seeing Jiang Chen and the other two approaching the entrance, one of the two burly men stretched out his arm and stopped them.
”Come tomorrow if you're here to trade.”
The burly man said in an impolite manner. Although he knew that the three people in front of him were Combat Kings, he still behaved arrogantly. This showed how strong the Heavenly Tower’s foundation was. In this Heavenly City, no one ever dared to cause trouble; even a Combat Emperor would have to suppress his pride in this place.
“Why can they enter, but I, your father cannot?”
The monk couldn’t accept such treatment. He clearly saw other people entering the Heavenly Tower just now, but when it came to their turn, they were asked to come the next day. Wasn’t this discrimination?
“They’re all distinguished guests of the Heavenly Tower, that’s why they can come at any time. But, you’re not, so hurry up and leave this place, come back at daytime.”
The burly man said in a rude manner.
Tyrant was immediately enraged, and it looked like he was about the give the burly man two slaps. However, he was pulled back by Jiang Chen before he could do anything. This monk knew no control to his strength, and if he killed this man with his slap, they would be in a bad situation.
Jiang Chen strode up to the burly man. He narrowed his eyes which were emitting an ice-cold glow and stared at the man, causing the man to feel a chill running down his back. The man couldn’t help but gulp, then move his eyes away as he lost the courage to stare at Jiang Chen.
“Tell your manager that there’s a big customer here; ask him to come out and greet us.”
Jiang Chen placed his hands behind his back and portrayed an imposing image.
“Kid, let me warn you; you better not show you arrogance in this place. Open your eyes and look around before you talk. Who are you? You’re not worth the time of our manager! What a joke!”
The other guard shouted at Jiang Chen. They had been working as guards of the Heavenly Tower for many years, but they had never seen such an arrogant young man. Asking their manager to welcome him personally? He really had no idea what his own status was.
Clasp!
Right after the burly man’s words left his mouth, a strong palm slapped his face, forcing him to spin around three times before coming to a stop. Half of his face instantly became swollen.
”You... you dare slap me?”
The burly man pointed his finger at Jiang Chen and said in a furious manner. Outrageous, this was completely insane! Who gave this young man the audacity to slap a guard of the Heavenly Tower?! This was ridiculous! This young man was done for, there was no way he could leave the Heavenly Tower alive today!
Clasp!
Jiang Chen replied with yet another slap. The two slaps turned his face into a pig’s face. This was the result of Jiang Chen showing mercy. Otherwise, he could have easily destroyed this burly man’s head with a single slap.
“What an insect! Fuck!”
Tyrant strode over while cursing, then delivered a powerful kick to the guard’s stomach, sending him flying away. The burly man felt extremely depressed. Not only had he been slapped twice, he now had to withstand a kick as well. These two guys were simply lawless, as they the courage to beat up someone at the entrance of the Heavenly Tower.
Tan Lang shook his head and laughed. This monk was truly amazing, he didn’t look like an eminent monk at all, but instead a hooligan wearing a kasaya.
The other burly man had been frightened by Jiang Chen’s gaze, and after witnessing his partner’s face turning into a pig’s face, he was so scared that he didn’t even have the courage to speak. He could only clench his jaw tightly in anger. Working for the Heavenly Tower had always been something he was proud about, but now someone actually beat up the Heavenly Tower’s people. This was simply an act of not showing any respect to the Heavenly Tower.
“Hand this thing to your manager, let him come here and welcome us at once. We’ll only wait for three minutes, if he doesn’t show himself by then, we’ll leave after that.”
Jiang Chen casually waved his arm, tossing a small jade bottle over. It was golden jade bottle emitting a faint golden light. The burly man grabbed the bottle. Upon holding it, he found out that it was really heavy, and he could sense threads of pure Yang energy coming out from it. It looked like there was a really valuable treasure inside the bottle.
”You,- you guys wait here.”
After saying that, the burly man turned around and entered the Heavenly Tower, not forgetting to murmur, “Damn it, how dare you beat a man of the Heavenly Tower?! I’ll tell the manager about this, he will chop you all into pieces for sure!”
On the Heavenly Tower’s top floor, inside a spacious meeting hall, an old man in a gray robe was sitting comfortably in a rattan chair. He was holding a cup of hot tea in his hand; looking relaxed.
He was one of the Heavenly Tower’s managers, and could only be considered a lowest rank manager. He was a Fifth Grade Combat King, not someone who could easily be offended.
Right at this moment, the burly man came into the meeting hall in a flurried manner.
“Why do you look so panicked? Don’t you know the rules? Is this a place you can come into?!”
The old man scolded the burly man.
“Manager Liu, there are three lunatics at our entrance. They’ve beaten the other guard, and even asked you to welcome them personally.”
The burly man explained what happened at the entrance to the old man.
