Chapter 89 Mediation? (2/2)

”No, Mr. Xiao is wrong.” Mu Tingchuan smiled and said, ”I am not only an ordinary person but also a layman. If Master Hou paid me less, I would have left.”

All three of them burst out laughing after hearing what he said. This Mu Tingchuan was an important man in the Hou Palace.

It seemed that everyone enjoyed their meal. When Xiao Bing left, Mu Tingchuan personally walked Xiao Bing out of the Hou Palace. Watching the car carrying Xiao Bing as it left far away, Mu Tingchuan turned back to the mansion and went directly to the small reception room. Master Hou was sitting in the main seat, and Mu Tingchuan sat down in the one next to him.

Master Hou took a sip of tea, looked at Mu Tingchuan and asked, ”What do you think?”

”This person looks like a soldier. He is generous and free. In fact, he is not as simple as his appearance, and he is very scheming.”

”I agree.” Master Hou put down the cup, smiled and said lightly, ”Not only is he scheming but he is also courageous. Someone so young would never dare to play this kind of mind game in front of me.”

Mu Tingchuan and Master Hou looked at each other and smiled. Then Mu Tingchuan asked with a smile, ”Are you showing your favor for this young man? That's why you tolerate this Xiao Bing so much?”

”You're indeed a man with a clear mind and you clearly know my thoughts. This young man's strength is extraordinary. He almost shocked the whole audience in the challenge arena that night. Even Miyamoto Shinji could not see through the strength he burst out before he fainted that night. If such a person would work for me...”

Mu Tingchuan said, ”I also asked Mr. Miyamoto about the terrible power that Xiao Bing broke out with that day and it should not be his normal state. His real power should be maintained in the middle realm of concealing strength stage, which is weaker than Zhu Mingyu who died by his hands.”

Master Hou laughed, ”Isn't a 26-year-old young man in the middle realm of concealing strength stage a talented person in martial arts? What's more, I am very interested in the power within him, which at least proves that he is a potential stock with hidden talents, and his future may not be limited.”

Mu Tingchuan sighed with emotion, ”You are generous enough to accept every talent, but I'm not. That is why you are the lord of this place, and I only work for you.”

Master Hou said with some blame, ”In my eyes, you are my partner, and we are not a boss and his employer.”

Mu Tingchuan was moved by his words.

Master Hou smiled and said, ”Well, I'd better call Peony... I'm afraid it's not that simple to mediate. Peony is a woman who has always hated men, but she was so sad when Zhu Mingyu died. Was there a special relationship between them? I don't care about it. But, if that were the case, I'm afraid it will be hard for me to be a peacemaker.”

Master Hou took out his cell phone and called the Peony Fairy, the North Heaven Queen. After the call was picked up, the Peony Fairy respectfully and coldly asked, ”Master Hou, do you have any orders?”

Hearing her indifferent voice, Master Hou knew that today's mediator had no hope. The Peony Fairy was obviously still angry with himself about that night. Just like Mu Tingchuan said about Master Hou. He was a man with a broad mind that could accept any talent. He would combine his majesty with kindness. The leaders around him were not very stiff in front of him, but they were relatively awed. Therefore, the Peony Fairy didn't dare to disobey his orders even when she was furious, but she showed some dissatisfaction appropriately at this time.

Master Hou smiled and said, ”Peony, today I want to talk with you about that night...”

”I dare not disobey the orders of Master Hou,” said the Peony Fairy.

”No, it's not for my own sake. I did this for your good.” Seeing that the Peony Fairy didn't answer, Master Hou continued, ”That night, you couldn't kill him. Now, if you kill him, how will other people judge you? Can you afford to lose? Second, the young lady of the Ye family was beside him. If anything happens to the Ye family, Ye Bancheng will not let it go. Although I don't care about that old thing, his influence is really great. If he gave any pressure toward the government, it may not embarrass me, but do you want me to abandon you to protect my overall situation?”

”So, no matter how angry you were that day, you can't kill him. Moreover, the one who died was only one of your men, even if he was a rare top fighter. You won't bring him back to life. So, is it necessary for you to kill Xiao Bing?”

The Peony Fairy was silent, and Master Hou took the opportunity to continue, ”The appropriate solution would be for you not to.”

”Master Hou, you treat me well and my life is yours. However, if you are asking me to let go of this feud, it is impossible!”

The voice of the Peony Fairy was so firm!
