Chapter 14 (1/2)

When An Zheng held the kitten to come out from the litter, everyone at the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard had been terribly surprised. A youth in ragged clothes holding a snow white kitten in his hand would definitely have looked awkward. Two of the guards at the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard door had seen An Zheng, but they did not know what to do. Should they stop the litter? It belonged to the Chen family. Their manners were quite good because they all realized that the people lifting the litter were also a man of the Chen family.

However, if they did not prevent but allowed such a dirty smelly guy in ragged clothes to come inside, the reputation of the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard must have been ruined.

After the litter stopped, An Zheng asked the carrier politely:

– “Need some tips?”

The carrier knew that his dandy did count on this guy, so he did not dare to ask for any tips. He waved his hands to refuse:

– “No, thanks. This is my job.”

– “Yup… so did you bring money with you?”

An Zheng said:

– “Mine are just silver bars, so I don’t have little ones.”

The carrier was surprised for a while, and he took out a crushed silver bar which was around four liang's:

– “I brought with me a little.”

An Zheng took out a five-liang silver bar and gave to the carrier. After that he took the four-liang one. He chose two of four liang's and gave to the guard:

– “If you don’t mind, please lead me to Chen dandy. Thank you!”

The guard was startled. He hesitated for a while, and then he led An Zheng in. He looked through to the carrier, and he found that the carrier was more surprised than he was.

An Zheng walked while thinking: “This Value a.s.sembly Courtyard is really luxurious.” The great hall was around five meters high supported with carved pillars. There were tens of big tables in the great hall, and each table was full of people. There were also many girls with elegant outfits walking around to take care of the people. Although those girls were not so beautiful, their appearances were attractive with slender waists, curved f.a.n.n.y, and big b.o.o.bs. Under their skirts were the long slim legs.

The guards were still surprised, looking at the two liang's in his hands. His knowledge was wide enough for him to know that he should not judge a book by its cover. Although An Zheng looked poor, he was generous. No one knew if he was a special person. However, although thinking like that, the guard still told off An Zheng.

– “The first floor is only for the common guests.”

The guard pointed to the second floor:

– “The Chen family has a private room on the second floor, and dandy Chen ShaoBai has already arrived.”

An Zheng nodded:

– “How much do you earn every month?”

The guard responded:

– “Eighty liang's per month excluding tips from the guests. It's enough to live on.”

An Zheng took out lots of silver bars from his sleeves and chose the smallest one to put in the guard’s hand:

– “Later, if you recruit someone, remember to call me.”

The guard:

– “…”

An Zheng went upstairs and found that all the rooms had people. There was a room which was decorated stylishly. There was a set of wooden pink tables with golden bowls and dishes on it. Just a pot might have cost 180 liang's or more. When he pa.s.sed by the balcony, everyone in that room looked at him. They did not know why such a youth like a beggar could have gone to the second floor of the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard.

He should have known that the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard welcomed not only the most important people of the South Mountain Town but also people from other places. Yet, being able to go to the second floor was more difficult. That a ragged youth like An Zheng dared to go to the second floor openly caused many people to be surprised.

When An Zheng had seen Chen ShaoBai, he was enjoying tea. A youth over ten years old picked up a cup of tea and pretended as if he was enjoying tea.

He had to admit that Chen ShaoBai was quite handsome. His brows were high, his lips were rosy, and his teeth were white. Such a youth like that must have caused young girls to be madly in love with him in the near future. He had not only a good background and an influential family, but also he was an inborn talent. People said that he had reached the third stage of the Ascended Marrow. He was only over ten years old, but he reached the level that many of the pract.i.tioners had to admire him.

An Zheng knew more clearly about the pract.i.tioners than the normal people. Therefore, he knew that such an over-ten-year old child could have reached the third stage of the Ascended Marrow would have also been a genius if he was in the f.u.xi. With an inborn talent like Chen ShaoBai, if he had left the Illusory Perennial Domicile to a bigger world in order to show himself off, he must have harvested great success.

Moreover, when seeing Chen ShaoBai, An Zheng clearly knew that he was a wicked person. Although he was an inborn talent, in the future, his cultivation base would have slowed down or even affect his goals of higher levels if he continued to concentrate on his wickedness.

– “Sit down!”

Chen ShaoBai pointed to a chair next to him with a skilled face:

– “I was waiting for you for a while, but I don’t like to wait for people, so come earlier next time. I know that it was no good of me to tolerate my men too much. However, you are really stronger than Zhang Lei’s men.”

An Zheng shrugged his shoulder:

– “I’m not that kind of inferior, so you still have time to change your mind.”

Chen ShaoBai:

– “They do not dare to tell me like that, do you know why?”

He meant that those who had dared to talk him like that would not have had good results.

An Zheng answered:

– “Because they are rubbish.”

Chen ShaoBai stopped his hand while holding the teacup. He knitted his brows and looked at An Zheng:

– “Based on the reports I had, you cannot practice, can’t you? In summary, although your skills are very good, and you are very wicked and decisive, in the end you are the same as those wasted people.”

An Zheng asked:

– “How about you? For what reasons do you want the rubbish by your side? For proving if you are also rubbish or the other way around? I am still not fond of you no matter what the answer is.”

Chen ShaoBai’s finger-joint moved a little, and then appeared a crack on the cup without any leaked tea.

– “It’s obvious that you know nothing about fear.”

Chen ShaoBai said:

– “If it isn’t because that the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard do not allow people to fight each other, I would have dismembered your hands and legs and fed it to the dogs.  You have not demonstrated your capacities but your unruliness and arrogance.”
