495: Kara and Zhang Yun arrives

Kara and Zhang Yun arrives

When everyone saw the Elder's previous high and mighty stature crumble into an obedient puppy, they immediately can tell how high this person called Elder Xi is high above them!0

The Lin family immediately bowed, knelt even, it's only natural, after all, they aren't in their territory, and even if they are, they need and would probably provide the greatest and most respectful hospitality for a person of such standing.

But as almost everyone bowed respectfully, they noticed that there were three people still standing up like sore thumbs.

They couldn't help but glance at who these four were, and of course, it's Yan Meng, Nantian, Xuan Yuan, and Fei Lin.

They wanted to scold them, but Elder Xi immediately took over: "You people weren't bowing?" It's a first for her, rather, other than some special people, it's the first that people didn't bow to her respectfully ever since she had become an inner court elder.

Xuan Yuan of course smiled and replied: "Our knees only know to bow for our master." He then poured two cups of wine and offered it while bowing his head, like how the four of them did before: "Please accept this as an apology."

Elder Xi hearing this didn't frown nor make anything out of it, instead, she guessed two things, it's either these four are ignorant or that their master is of the really high realm, and judging from their treasures, it's probably the latter, she smiled and took one of the cups and drank it: "Good wine."

Xuan Yuan did the same and drank it as well: "Thank you!"

Elder Xi nodded and looked at the things placed on the place and started scanning them: "Flawless Perfect Pill.... at most this can fetch for 2,000,000 high grade stones... as for these scrolls..."

As she spoke to this, she was of course curious and started unscrolling a quarter of it, it'll be rude to read more than half for a trade, after all, reading a full scroll means that its value would decrease.

But then, when she read the first quarter of the scroll, she felt the itch to read some more, she also did read the intermediate and peak grade manuals and felt shocked more and more.

Seeing how the four weren't punished, the Alchemy Association members and the Shu family were visibly shocked, still, they couldn't lift their heads without any words from Elder Xi.

Elder Xi couldn't help but heave a massive breathe as she looked at the four people standing in front of her. Truthfully, she really wanted to trade it, but all of them are basic grade manuals, at most, all of those items will fetch 50,000,000 high grade spirit stones.

And that's already praising it to the high heavens! What's the highest price for a manual that had ever been sold? It's 2,000,000 high grade spirit stones! And that was an ancient MF immortal grade manual!

But then, these three scrolls, they are all but mortal grade, and yet, they already cost that much!

Just from the things written inside of it, Elder Xi knew that they definitely will benefit from it than keeping the Guzheng as a display, but treasures are treasures for a reason, if there's a person that can use it for the shire, then, the benefits will undoubtbly be more than the scrolls!

Elder Xi looked at Fei Lin, her spiritual energy is actually synonymous to the Guzheng itself, if possible, she could join the shire's elites and be part of the shire, but of course, she needed to ask something: "You four are disciples of?"

Xuan Yuan immediately introduced: "Xuan Yuan, the disciple of the Mo Family patriarch, the way of the swords."

"Yan Meng, disciple of the Mo Family patriarch, the path of alchemy."

"Fei Lin, disciple of the Mo Family patriarch, the path of sound."

"Uhmn, uh, Nantian, disciple of the Mo Family patriarch, p-path of... brawling?"

Of course, as Nantian lacked anything but this world's common sense, he's having a hard time explaining his path, Xuan Yuan nudge him and whispered: 'Martial Arts!'

"Ah, right! Martial Arts!" He corrected himself.

Elder Xi seemingly had heard of the Mo Family but couldn't remember where or when, but then, she felt something, her skin slightly trembled as she remembered: "Mo Family's patriarch?!" She asked.

But like some sort of novel, another two guests arrived without any consent.

The elder from before, the elder that guided them saw this and frowned: "The audacity, where do you thi-" She was going to ask where do you think this is, but then, Elder Xi waved her hand to stop her.

"Esteemed guests, welcome to our humble abode." Elder Xi bowed with one of her knees planted on the ground, also, the others could clearly see that Elder Xi is actually trembling, both from excitement and fear.

One of the two tilted her head and asked: "Lin'er, you seemed interested in this Guzheng?"

Fei Lin looked back and saw her, she smiled: "Big sister Kara!" 

Of course, Kara is still the same, slightly twitching whenever she's excited, like a robotic malfunction as she moved her body. Kara took the Guzheng and handed it to Fei Lin: "Here, take it."

Not only Fei Lin, but everyone else was visibly shocked by it, with the exception of Elder Xi.

The first elder was about to say something, but a palm immediately held her shoulders and made her kneel with brute force: "Do not say anything!" Elder Xi whispered.

Fei Lin took the Guzheng but asked Kara: "But... shouldn't we pay for it?"

Kara looked at Elder Xi with a tilted head: "We have to pay?"

Elder Xi immediately shook her head repeatedly: "Of course not, please take it, consider it as gifts from our shire, we'd definitely feel honored if you do so!"

Kara nodded her head, but then, Fei Lin shook her head: "Big sis, why are you bullying others!" She pouted.

Kara chuckled: "I bully no one, if I do, they usually never live the next day." After speaking like that, her laugh that sounded like two blades clashing sounded 'kek kek kek' that caused everyone present to slightly shudder.

Yan Meng looked at Kara: "Big sister, still, I would at least want to pay!" 

Kara shrugged her shoulders: "Do what you want."

Yan Meng nodded, shoving all of the items he had placed down to Elder Xi: "Please accept them, as for the rest, I'll definitely pay them when I have enough!"

Elder Xi of course rejected it and shove it back to him, carefully: "Please, you do not need to, it's too much for us to accept it." Her evaluation of the manuals had drastically changed, after all, it came from that 'patriarch', which meant, that each of those manuals would definitely cost more than a hundred million high-grade spiritual stones at the very least!

Kara then spoke: "Just take it, even if you're taking advantage of my master's disciple, my master wouldn't care giving such excess to your shire."

Elder Xi immediately nodded and trembled both in excitement and fear, she had read a quarter of each of the manuals, but if what she thinks is right, the essence of this manual is actually at the last quarter of it! She immediately took it, knelt on the ground with both of her knees: "I thank the Mo Patriarch for such great gifts."

Kara chuckled: "It's just something we get for free and quite easy as well, no need to say so many things, keep it already!"

Elder Xi nodded furiously and kept it inside her storage ring.

Zhang Yun seeing such a spectacle couldn't help but smile: "Younger brothers and sister, the master is calling."

Nantian and the rest nodded: "Then, we'll go?"

Zhang Yun nodded his head: "Let's go."

Kara then looked at the Alchemy Association's people and spoke: "My master also wishes to know the 'background' of his disciples' family, do follow." Stretching the word background somewhat scared them silly, only Fei Lin's sisters didn't feel fear but instead, genuine excitement and curiosity!

Hearing this, everyone followed the two and vanished.

As they left, the elder looked at Elder Xi and asked: "E-Elder Xi, who are those..."

She couldn't help but pause as shock overtook her seeing Elder Xi's complexion, pale as the white sands and her whole attire is drenched in sweat.

Elder Xi looked at the elder: "People you can never afford to offend."

She paused for a bit before adding: "I do hope you didn't mistreat those disciples of his, or your future will be unsure, not even the whole shire will be able to protect you." As she spoke, she immediately vanished, afraid that people would see her unsightly appearance.

Although it may be unsightly for her, many males would give up their lives to see such a scene.
