Chapter 1045: I’m All Ears!
“What a youthful spirit!” Gambling Monkey burst out laughing at Bai Xiaofei’s words with an 180-degree turn in his attitude.
“That’s what being young is about, no?” Bai Xiaofei also laughed as he looked at Gambling Monkey, matching the latter’s energy.
“I like your personality, lad. I don’t know what the other groups think, but on behalf of the Babel Merchant House, we’ll do you this favor. No matter how much trouble you stir up in Cloudveil, we will not intervene!” Scratching his chin, Gambling Monkey’s eyes fell upon the dead body of the man representing Unify Business. “As for Unify, we will pay more attention to them. If they really are as you said, Babel will not sit idly by. Anything related to Shadow Death deserves death!”
With this declaration, Gambling Monkey stood up. Bai Xiaofei followed suit and slightly bowed to him. “Thank you for your righteousness, Senior. I thank you on behalf of Illusion Demon.”
Gambling Monkey smiled and waved dismissively. “Don’t mention it. I like making friends but you are the first to be this young. If you have time in the future, come by our Babel. I’ll make sure you have fun!” He then swept his eyes at the other representatives. “Everyone, I will be taking my leave. What you decide later will have nothing to do with me, hahahaha!!”
Gambling Monkey’s hearty laughter echoed as he left without looking back. The remaining representatives started to panic. Bai Xiaofei’s excuse was completely beyond their expectation and rendered their plans meaningless. Moreover, they did not have the authority to make decisions on behalf of their organizations like Gambling Monkey.
“Little Brother Bai, the old man will truthfully report the situation here to Headquarters. As for how it will turn out, it is beyond my control.” Elder Han chose to play safe. It was obvious from his tone that he didn’t want to go against Bai Xiaofei, at least not for the time being.
One who is willing to stake everything, fears nothing. That was Bai Xiaofei. When he moved the whole Illusion Demon to Cloudveil, his determination had been shown to surpass everyone else’s.
“I’m sorry to trouble you to make this trip. When it is all over, this junior will definitely go to the Alchemist Pavilion and pay the seniors of the Devpath Merchant Group a visit.” Bai Xiaofei bowed again.
After some more words of courtesies, Elder Han left. At this point, only the representatives of the Amethyst Merchant House, the Violet Moon Group, Multihouse, and the Vivid Wing Chamber remained in the room, with Zhang Yekun of Multihouse being in the most embarrassing position. After all, he came to cause trouble, unlike Gambling Monkey who did out of honest concern.
“Pray for your own luck, boy!” Zhang Yekun uttered with a cold snort and left the room.
Watching the man leave, Bai Xiaofei shook his head.
“May I ask why you’re shaking your head, President Bai?”
Bai Xiaofei’s reaction naturally did not escape the attention of the remaining three people, and the representative of Vivid Wing was the most sensitive.
“Vivid Wing Chamber, Feng Yi, the little sister of President Feng Luan,” Fang Ye whispered.
Smiling, Bai Xiaofei replied, “I just feel sorry for the Babel Merchant House that its Northern Branch president is so narrow-minded.”
