148 Digging ones own grave 2 (1/2)
Apology?
Is his brother thinking that a simple apology would be enough? Jun Moyin smiled wryly.
He was the main reason for all this drama. He decided that he would explain it to her in a convincing way. He prayed in his heart for his sister-in-law to be in a good mood today, if not the consequences would be terrible for them.
What he did not know was that no matter how relaxed and happy she was, Xia Lian would not let them off the hook today.
As he was thinking how to placate the fuming girl, they arrived at the gates of the Dark city. The entrance gate to the city was majestic with the statues of soaring dragons unlike the shady businesses taking place within the city walls. Riding along the busy streets, they quickly reached the Black Dragon Auction House.
The chattering of the crowd was clearly audible to the outside world indicating that the whole auction house was packed with crowds of people.
” Brother, it seems very lively today.” Jun Moyin remarked while dismounting from his horse.
” Of course it will be, they are going to auction new poisons today.” Xuan Li Wei was not originally interested in these poisons, but his comrades arguments won at the last.
Why exhaust their efforts, if they could use a simple poison? But this was an auction house, where ridiculous amounts will be priced for even a rock not to speak of poisons. He sighed as he walked towards the auction house ” Let's hope that the price for the poisons does not exceed our reach.”
” Hmm…” Jun Moyin suddenly remembered something ” Brother, I heard that there is going to be a live testing today.”
Now, this was something. Xuan Li Wei raised his brows in amusement. Who in the world has such confidence and abilities to go for live testing? The day is going to be interesting, or so he thought not knowing that he was going to be the test subject of the live testing.
After taking a look at his token, the guards immediately escorted Xuan Li Wei and Jun Moyin in.
Xuan Li Wei was dressed in white robes which made him look like a venerable deity. His ice cold face void of any expression made the people in the room develop a deep sense of fear in their hearts. But, the man was too handsome that a few brave women stared straight at his face unabashedly. Not speak of women, even men stared at this specimen who was definitely the source of their envy. Sure enough, people started discussing about the cold but handsome man who was walking before them.
Sensing the rather intense looks directed towards him, Xuan Li Wei tilted his face and swept a glance at all those in the room. His furrowed brows indicated his annoyance making all the people shiver under his gaze.
The atmosphere surrounding him turned frightening as he gave off a bloodthirsty aura befitting his title as god of war. Under his intense hazel eyes, all those who were initially staring cowered into a corner instantly.
' Poor fellows, my big brother is not one who you can simply stare at! His soul and body is exclusively reserved for sister-in-law!' Jun Moyin guffawed in his heart after seeing their sorry appearances.
