105 Chapter 105: Negotiation 2 (1/2)

”He declined?!” The crowd was dumbfounded. He just declined a perfectly fair offer.

”Why would he decline?” A disciple from a power could not comprehend Dylan's line of thought at all.

”I- I'm not even sure myself...” The person beside him was confused as well.

”Having a variety of products is definitely beneficial to a business! Even more so to have a joint establishment with these 4 powers is like giving wings to a tiger! Why didn't he choose to accept the deal?” A noble clan sect master felt that it was impractical to waste such​ an opportunity.

”Right. If it was me, I would have accepted the offer without hesitation.” Another sect master said.

”If you ask me, he seems just to be an arrogant and miserly tycoon!” A burly man commented severely.

”He must think that gaining the partnership of the Premier Hall will help his business boom just like that! What arrogance!” An old fox analyzed.

...

”Waves of displeasure from the audience came with Dylan's reply but the man was unperturbed from this.” The scholarly handsome youth smiled at this scene. He was rather surprised that Dylan replied like that.

”Do you have any ideas why he did not accept the deal?” The cold beauty beside him asked.

”Unfortunately, I don't. It seems that this Dylan Ford is unfathomable. Maybe even more unfathomable than me.” The young man mysteriously smiled as a response.

”Hmph, don't try and decieve me, Conor! He's unfathomable? Don't make me laugh! You are the most unfathomable person I know in the entire Mystical Clouds. You wouldn't have been labeled as this country's greatest mind if it weren't for your achievement back at the borders of Magma Rock. You were even labeled as the Puppeteer of Death by the enemy troops! Compared to you, he's just an ordinary man.” The beauty reprimanded him. She was very cautious though because she told him this through the Spiritual Transmission.

”Hahaha, I know, princess. You don't have to make me sound so sinister though. But, I was not joking when I said he was unfathomable. My intuition is telling me that he is... special.” The man transmitted through Spiritual Transmission as well.

”What makes you say that?” The girl frowned. Conor's intuition had saved their troops and overturned the tides of each skirmish with his strategies that has happened in the past.

”You'll see.” The man smiled and this time he replied with his voice. He continued to observe the little show in front of them and seemed to have no intention of discussing any longer.

”...” The cold beauty's curiosity was piqued because of Conor's remark. So, she also focused her attention to Dylan and the four head-level figures of four different sects.

...

”What is the reason for your rejection, Young Noble?” The head of Charon Family had a gloomy face when ha spoke these words.

”I apologize if you were offended by my declination. However, I feel that it would be an unwise decision for me to accept such terms.” Dylan nonchalantly apologized in a calm manner.

”Unwise?!” The sect master of the Steelheart Sect gritted his teeth to suppress the anger he was feeling.

The 18 year old businessman just told them that teaming up with them would be disadvantageous to his brand. They were one of the powers that towered above all so this was a direct assault to their pride.

Others would feel gratified to be offered such privilege of cooperating with all of them but this young man just flatly and decisively rejected their fair offer right in front of their faces. He felt that Dylan was being too arrogant if he wants to obtain a better profit than these four.

”I can see that you are quite angry because of what I have said. But I stand firm in my decisions if the terms are remained unchanged. You might think that I am arrogant but I have perfectly sane reasons that compel me from rejecting your offers.” Dylan explained himself.

”This is because?” The master of the Quadra Fang Sect questioned him with a shade of anger on his countenance. Dylan's attitude has clearly angered. He was suppressing his anger because it would be unsightly if he were to lose his temper in front of a crowd.

”Are you sure you want me to say it out loud?” Dylan smile was still the same and his expression did not change all throughout the verbal exchange.

”Hmph, there is no need for you to act so mysteriously. If you have something, then say it. Or else you will incur public unrest and the credibility of your store will drown in the waves of criticism by the citizens of the city!” The Firebull Schoolmaster was very straightforward when he spoke.
