Chapter 425: Golden Pavilion Chamber of Commerce
Just as Huang Xiaolong’s figure appeared in the hall, Qin Guoan and all Qin Family Elders’ eyes zoomed in on him, however, no one from the Qin Family’s side stood up in a warm welcome, they each wore an indifferent expression on their faces.
An elixir like the Nine Leaves Purple Grass was hard to come by in a thousand years, even someone such as their Treasure City Castellan hardly had something like it in his possession. From the Qin Family’s expressions, it was obvious they did not believe that this black-haired young man in front of them had the Nine Leaves Purple Grass.
“You have the Nine Leaves Purple Grass?” Qin Guoan went straight to the point, tone condescending and filled with authority.
Huang Xiaolong scanned the faces around him, taking no offense from Qin Guoan’s manner, he replied calmly, “Correct.”
A disdained snort sounded from one of the Qin Elders, “Brat, do you know what place this is? If you fail to take out a Nine LeavesPurple Grass later, I’ll end you with a slap!”
Huang Xiaolong retorted, “If I can take out a Nine Leaves Purple Grass, then will you commit suicide with a single palm?”
That Qin Family Elder was quick to anger, “You! Insolent!” The Elder carried a preconception that Huang Xiaolong, in fact, didn’t have the Nine Leaves Purple Grass, and came to Qin Residence to rouse trouble. To him, Huang Xiaolong’s retort only proved his thoughts.
“Mad Dragon Bears No Regret!” The Qin Family Elder attacked Huang Xiaolong with a palm strike. However, there was no mad dragon, only gusts of strong wind.
Qin Guoan and the rest watched from their seats with no intention to stop the Elder. They too wanted to see how much skill the other side had, to come into their territory causing trouble!
However, the Qin Family Elder suddenly turned ashen when his palm force was inches from Huang Xiaolong, a whelming power much stronger than his own swept over him.
Bang! A loud explosion resounded and the Qin Family Elder was blasted off his seat, leaving behind a pile of wood dust that used to be a chair. The robe on his body was shredded into many long stripes that hung down from his shoulder, not much different in appearance compared to a street beggar.
Qin Guoan and all the present Qin Family Elders jumped to their feet with a dumbstruck expression on their faces: what happened?!
No one in the hall saw Huang Xiaolong retaliate, neither did they feel any energy ripples from Huang Xiaolong’s body, but their Qin Family Elder was struck like a broken kite?!
Although that particular Qin Family Elder wasn’t the strongest, he ranked amongst the top in strength.
At this moment, Huang Xiaolong pointed a finger at the void, the power of his finger pierced a hole through the main hall’s stone pillar, then the back wall, through the courtyard wall, and finally the imitation mountain in the garden.
Qin Guoan, as well as the Elders, stared at the straight line of finger-sized holes that was straighter than a brush, their knees went weak. As a peak half-Saint himself, Qin Guoan honestly admitted that he couldn’t do that.
Which led to the next question… this black-haired young man was a Saint realm expert?!
A Saint realm expert! Qin Guoan began to feel afraid.
It was clear now that the black-haired young man wasn’t someone sent by the Jiang Family to disturb them. The Jiang Family couldn’t afford to hire a Saint realm expert to deal with them.
“Sen-Senior, j-just now Guoan and the Elders were impolite, we humbly beg Senior to forgive us!” Qin Guoan forced himself to approached Huang Xiaolong despite his crying heart, apologizing with the utmost respect.
The remaining Qin Family Elders also bowed low, asking for forgiveness, their foreheads nearly touching the floor.
Seeing e no signs of anger on Huang Xiaolong’s face, Qin Guoan invited Huang Xiaolong to sit on his Patriarch seat. Huang Xiaolong did not refuse, he walked straight to the main seat and sat down.
This made Qin Guoan feel a tiny bit better, but he and the Elders all stood on their feet, no one dared to sit.
Huang Xiaolong went straight to business after taking a seat, taking out a Nine Leaves Purple Grass. Immediately, the scent of fragrant elixir filled the entire Qin Residence main hall.
“Nine, Nine Leaves Purple Grass!” Qin Guoan shivered as he stared at the little green plant in Huang Xiaolong’s hand. The Elders’ expressions mirrored Qin Guoan’s.
Despite witnessing the black-haired young man’s possible Saint realm strength, a small portion of doubt still lingered in Qin Guoan’s and the Elders’ hearts about Huang Xiaolong actually having a Nine Leaves Purple Grass.
