Chapter 486: A Man of Responsibility (2/2)

Of course, the threat was not from the students still in school but those who had already graduated. This huge collective force was, in fact, an unbreakable network centered around the schools and connected by various fields.

One could not see or touch the network. But if activated once, the aftershock would last long enough.

A bandit group in the frontier would never ask for trouble by provoking a war academy, even it could unite with any other groups. Generals in Zence were now divided into small groups according to the academies they had graduated from. No one dared to mess with those mighty groups.

”The girl should stand out and speak for you. Now I am more intrigued!” With a gentle smile, Bhang Wusheng put the letter back into his Warrior Dimension. ”I would kill Qian Jin as long as she dared to make a move. Bandit King would never be induced or threatened by any influence.”

Marc Gavin was stunned! Although he had never seen Bhang Wusheng before, he thought the man could be bought but by benefits as long as he was made from flesh and blood. He hadn't expected this.

”Since you own the Yulee Blacksmith Union, I suppose you are good at forging?”

Calmly enough, Qian Jin looked at Bhang Wusheng right in his eyes. The man was so aloof and so overbearing. Others might be afraid of him, but not Qian Jin! He had already been immune to this kind of presence. Compared to Eulalia, this Bandit King here was at best a second banana.

Blake was like the most ordinary farmer. But after hanging around him for a long time, Qian Jin had also learned not to care about a man's presence.

In the eyes of a farmer, the greatest things in the world were the heaven and earth. With those two things, he could plant crops. Warrior power and magic were nothing to them. No matter how strong they were, they couldn't defeat nature.

Qian Jin had learned to take everything coolly from the natural philosophy. So even Bhang Wusheng was now asking the question with the superior affection like an emperor, Qian Jin was still calm and easy going.

”I don't know if I'm good or not. I just learned for a few days.”

Bhang Wusheng raised his eyebrows. He had deliberately been pressuring this young man, whose reaction was surprisingly swift and steady.

”Pharmaceuticals?”

”The same.”

”I have enough best materials here. Help yourself.” After a moment, Bhang Wusheng added, ”But you must pay, by making equipment or potions.”

”Same value with the material or...” cool as he was, Qian Jin looked into the eyes of the emperor, ”with my product?”

Yi was surprised to find that Qian Jin had always calmed himself while confronting against Bhang Wusheng. He wasn't in pursuit of an equal footing but he wasn't suppressed either. If Bhang Wusheng were a gust of wind, Qian Jin would be a cloud. The cloud would pull itself together after the wind blew over.

Yi knew it for sure that Qian Jin was way better than him in regards mental toughness. In response to stress, Yi would definitely fight back until he couldn't anymore. The untroubled state of Qian Jin was something he would never obtain. He just couldn't ignore Bhang Wusheng!

”Oh...” With a faint smile, Bhang Wusheng said, ”What do you think?.”

”Same with the material, you will lose,” said Qian Jin while pointing at himself. ”But same with the product, I will lose! I don't want to take advantages, but I also don't want to make myself take a loss.”

Narrowing his eyes, Bhang Wusheng nodded his head. More often than not, a young man in this age had a heart swollen with pride because of some achievement, in order to cultivate the so-called temperament. But Qian Jin, he was pure, simple and straightforward. He was special!

He was a man of responsibility! Bhang Wusheng was pleased. ”That being the case, how about twice the material price?”

”Fair enough.”

Qian Jin shrugged his shoulders. Having been tyrannizing in the Frontier for so many years, the number one bandit group must have saved abundant resources. It was just about time. He had intended to make some modifications to the [Shoot Moon] Bow and at the same time forge some more pieces.

Although he had plundered a lot of materials while he was playing a bandit hunter, it was still not enough.

Provided with an opportunity to use the materials nearly for free, Qian Jin didn't plan to play modest.

Slowly standing up, Bhang Wusheng looked up at the floor ceiling and murmured to himself, ”Fairness is a life pursuit of mine. Son, send me a notice when you are getting to the work.”

”Bandit King...”

Bhang Wusheng turned around and shook his head at Marc Gavin. ”He gave me his word that he would stay here for the following five years. Of course, he could leave in advance if he defeats me. If you insist on taking him away, I won't mind a war with Yulee even the Zence Empire. I rule the Frontier and I'm not subject to any jurisdiction or threats.”

”Marc...” Qian Jin pressed down the angry bear who was about to speak again. ”Sit. I owe this to Hayen Brianna. As a man and a warrior, I must pay it back.”

Marc Gavin could do nothing but shake his head with a long sigh. ”You could have told me...”
