Chapter 176.

Although the room was not large, there was only Meng Jiang and the old man within it, making it seem very empty.

The entire room was antique in color, and both the furnishings and decorations exuded a distinctive flavor.

Even on the table, there was precious sandalwood incense.

At this time, the sandalwood incense was bubbling with hazy smoke, just by smelling it, one could feel refreshed.

This room, filled with the flavor of a tycoon, was also the best meeting room of the Fenglin State Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.

As long as one was inside this room, none of them were extremely honorable guests.

“Elder Luo, please use the tea, this tea is a specialty of my Maple Forest Prefecture, and it is also the most prestigious.” Meng Jiang waved his hand and said with a smile.

He didn’t know tea, but it didn’t stop him from using the most expensive.

Expensive wasn’t necessarily the best, but when used here, it was the most appropriate.

The old man in front of him was from the Sheng Dan Sect, a particularly important partner of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.

The so-called Sheng Dan Sect was the power of the Alchemist I Sect, and it was also a first-class power in the Great Chu Kingdom.

This sect’s combat power was not strong, but its connections were ridiculously large.

For no other reason, the profession of alchemist was extremely popular in the Jianghu.

Pills, is specialized for the jianghu people service, whether walking in the jianghu or the dark and windy killing night, that is a necessary tool.

Alchemist also rely on this hand to eat the guy, in the jianghu people gathered a lot of contacts.

The Hengtong Chamber of Commerce had always had a close working relationship with the Shengdan Sect, and the Shengdan Sect also brought great income to the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, so this time, when Elder Luo Fu of the Shengdan Sect came over, Meng Jiang naturally received him personally.

Elder Luo picked up the teacup and took a light sip, saying in a flat tone, “Indeed it is good tea, thanks to Steward Meng.”

On the surface, Elder Luo’s tone was polite, but in reality, his eyes moved slightly upwards, appearing to be superior.

When Meng Jiang saw Elder Luo’s appearance, he sighed slightly in his heart.

This was the temperament of the Sheng Dan Sect’s alchemists all along, and he knew it very well in his heart.

This lineage was, in fact, a lineage of alchemists, but in the old days, it belonged to the Taoist Sect, and then because of some things, it eventually broke away from within the Taoist Sect and became a force on its own.

Alchemists had developed this very condescending temperament due to their close ties with people in the lineage and the fact that there were many people in the lineage who had requests from them.

Even if they had cooperation with the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, they still had this expression.

Because for the Sheng Dan Sect, it was the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce that begged them to cooperate.

After all, an alchemist who didn’t choose the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce could completely choose any other chamber of commerce, and there were quite a few chambers of commerce that were willing to come sniffing around without paying a price at all.

This was also the reason why Meng Jiang was here as a companion.

With his status as the head of the Fenglin State’s Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, there really weren’t many people who could get him to personally greet them here.

In fact, Meng Jiang was quite helpless, and he didn’t like receiving such arrogant people.

But when you’re in the jungle, you can’t help it.

Especially one with deeper interests like this.

“Elder Luo, our cooperation this time, it seems like it has stagnated a bit lately, some of the pills sent to the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce from the Shengdan Sect’s side are a lot less than before.” Meng Jiang put his teacup down.

This time, Elder Luo had come over, and it was actually for this matter.

Ever since last month, especially on the side of the Maple Forest State, the number of pills received had been much less, which was why Meng Jiang had brought up the invitation to the Sheng Dan Sect.

And the Sheng Dan Sect had sent Elder Luo over just to discuss this matter.

Elder Luo lightly sipped his tea, his eyes didn’t even look towards Meng Jiang’s side, and very calmly said, “Recently, the rate of successful pills has not been high, and Steward Meng also knows that as far as our lineage of alchemy is concerned, we also pay attention to the chances of success, and it’s not that it’s a hundred percent successful, so naturally, the ones that we give are a bit less.”

“It’s not just Maple Forest State, it’s estimated that other places, too, will be affected.”

Saying that, Elder Luo didn’t even put down his teacup and took another sip of tea, looking very casual.

While drinking the tea, Elder Luo was even thinking about going to the best restaurant in Maple Forest Prefecture tonight and having a delicious meal.

He didn’t treat this time as a mission, but instead as an outing.

After all, in his opinion, cooperating with the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce was the Shengdan Sect giving them face.

If they didn’t give this face, there were plenty of people to cooperate with.

Meng Jiang had lived in the shopping mall for many years, so how could he not be clear about what Elder Luo meant.

With this kind of expression, he was able to see through it with a single glance.

After thinking back and forth for a bit, Meng Jiang said, “Elder Luo, I heard that you guys still have cooperation with other chambers of commerce, the total amount this time hasn’t changed, it’s just that a portion of it has been absorbed into other chambers of commerce.”

As a chamber of commerce, it naturally had its own intelligence network, so when he invited Elder Luo over, Meng Jiang had already poked around.

When Elder Luo heard this, he put his teacup down, and without any element of concealment, he very naturally expressed his dissatisfaction, “Steward Meng, you’re investigating me aren’t you? If that’s the case, do you think there’s integrity in the cooperation between us?”

Meng Jiang clenched his fists, a glint of disgust in his eyes, but it was quickly concealed by him, “Elder Luo, is it possible that they’re giving more?”

Elder Luo smiled and said, “It’s still Steward Meng who knows what he’s talking about, after all, we’re working together, whoever gives more, we’ll give more to them as well.”

Meng Jiang couldn’t hold back any longer at this point, even though he had lived in the shopping mall for a long time and had developed a calm and collected nature, he still stood up.

The other party clearly didn’t have him in their sights, and it would be a first-rate oddity to still be able to talk under these circumstances.

Elder Luo wasn’t flustered at all, instead using a rhetorical tone, he asked, “What, is Steward Meng planning to terminate the cooperation, being able to represent the entire Hengtong Chamber of Commerce?”

Meng Jiang clenched his fists and then loosened them, the unhappy emotions on his face were all suppressed as he revealed a smile, “That would not be the case, Elder Luo, the next time we distribute pills, remember to say that other chambers of commerce are able to afford to give them, so can we.”

Elder Luo hemmed and hawed, “That’s for sure, next time, I’m sure I’ll have to talk to you guys, after all, this alchemy, it’s a craft, and we have to mark up the price.”

In his words, he seemed to have taken Meng Jiang under his wing.

Meng Jiang sat back again, ready to continue talking to Elder Luo.

Next, he was going to find out who was behind this.

All those small chambers of commerce dared to steal the business of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, so there must be someone behind it.

Unfortunately, before he could ask his thoughts out, a merchant from the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce hurriedly ran in from outside.

The merchant had a rich body type and was wearing expensive damask, but his running speed was not slow at all, and was even quite faster than a normal person.

Due to the reason of being too flustered, he tripped over the threshold and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, although the merchant was not good at fighting, but how to say that he was also a person in the line, and quickly stabilized himself.

Meng Jiang’s approach to his men was to always have them all maintain a steady attitude and temper.

However, he hadn’t expected that his men would be in a panic today.

He couldn’t help but frown as he asked, “What happened?”

Meng Jiang knew very well that if there wasn’t something big going on, it wouldn’t have caused them to panic so much.

The merchant who had run in heard Meng Jiang’s question and knew that he had been rude, then straightened his messy clothes and looked at Elder Luo next to him, ready to walk up and speak to Meng Jiang quietly.

Meng Jiang didn’t stop it, but instead sidled his ear to the side.

The merchant walked over and whispered a few words.

Meng Jiang’s expression became strange.

First, he was slightly stunned, followed by a look of delight.

He stood up, and even stood up too quickly, almost failing to stand still.

“Lord Zhou is here, I should have been notified first, hurry up and lead the way, forget it, I don’t need you to lead the way, I’ll go over directly!”

After saying that, Meng Jiang didn’t even speak to Elder Luo before striding away.

Elder Luo was originally savoring his tea, and was even thinking about what to eat for the evening, and at this time, when Meng Jiang left like this, he felt that he was quite embarrassed in turn.

Right now, there was still a businessman in the room.

Elder Luo pondered slightly, taking advantage of the fact that this merchant hadn’t left, he asked, “What happened, your Steward Meng isn’t usually this agitated.”

Elder Luo himself was in charge of docking with the Maple Forest State side, so after going back and forth many times, he was naturally well aware of Meng Jiang’s personality and temperament.

Logically speaking, Meng Jiang was a very calm person, and it was impossible for such a panicked scene to occur.

If that was the case, it could only mean that the person who came was not small.

Even when he had come over, Meng Jiang had acted in a well-organized manner, but in the space of one sentence, he had become so so impatient.

Elder Luo thought in his mind just how big the identity of the person coming had to be.

The merchant was stopped by these words, stopped in his tracks, turned his head and cupped his fists, “Elder Luo, I’m really sorry, Lord Zhou came over, so Steward Meng he left in a great hurry, please forgive me for anything bad, if you need our cooperation, or let us take you around Maple Forest State, I can go and arrange for manpower right away.”

The merchant was actually in a hurry as well, but Steward Meng had arranged for him to stay behind and didn’t ask him to go along, presumably to allow him to receive this Elder Luo.

In fact, the merchant disliked receiving Elder Luo, because this Elder Luo had come to Maple Forest State before, and basically treated it as if he was coming over to play, and after a bout of eating and drinking, he even had to go to a green house and bag two girls.

The most important thing is that, after finishing, things are still not talked about.

The merchant was ashamed of this behavior, but there was nothing he could do but stand here.

“Lord Zhou, what Lord Zhou?” Elder Luo frowned, a little confused.

He had only been here for a short while, so he didn’t really know the situation in the Maple Forest Prefecture today.

However, what was on his mind was that within this Maple Forest Prefecture, other than the state order and the state of Si, what else could cause Meng Jiang to be so flustered in reception?

Si Zhou and the state order, although Elder Luo had never seen them, he knew their names, and it was absolutely impossible for them to be surnamed Zhou.

The merchant quickly gave a reply, “It’s Lord Zhou from our Maple Forest State’s Craftsmanship Supervisor, Elder Luo, as you know, recently the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce has been very concerned about the mining of all kinds of ores, and Lord Zhou just happens to be the Craftsmanship Supervisor’s hand, so naturally, he has to be treated well.”

He felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, after all, what he said was the truth.

Nowadays, relying on Zhou An, the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce had already made a lot of money in the mining of iron and other ores.

Not to mention that Zhou An had also produced a medical book, and that medical book was being played out by the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.

What-so-ever versions, what-so-ever special releases and the like, all sorts of versions, ate it up.

Coupled with Zhou An’s strength, the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce was of course received with the highest of etiquette.

Not to mention in this Maple Forest State, even if one went to the Chamber of Commerce of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, it would probably be the same treatment.

Elder Luo fell into deep thought, holding the teacup in his hand on the table, gently swirling it, “So that’s how it is, indeed, I’ve also heard that you’ve made quite a bit of money on the iron mines.”

The merchant nodded and turned his head to look at the door again, revealing a torn look.

He was thinking about whether or not to go over there, after all, it was not easy for Lord Zhou to come over, so if he went over to mix things up, he might even be able to soar as a result one day.

“I’ll tag along and take a look as well.” Elder Meng finally stopped spinning his teacup and stood up, saying, “Our Shengdan Sect has a partnership with the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, and since the other partner has come over, it would be good for me to go and take a look and get to know each other a little bit.”

The merchant was slightly stunned, he didn’t understand what exactly this Elder Luo meant and couldn’t help but scratch his head.

Lord Zhou is here, what’s the deal with you going?

It’s not like you and Lord Zhou know each other and there’s no communication between the two, is it possible that you think Lord Zhou is a nobleman and want to go and climb up the ladder as well?

This was the thought in the merchant’s mind, which was actually the complete opposite of what Elder Luo really thought.

Elder Luo felt that he had to go and take a look and get to know this so-called Lord Zhou.

This was because after he had seen Meng Jiang’s panic and joy, he felt that it would likely have a huge impact on the Sheng Dan Sect’s business.

If the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce had other means of getting rich and higher than alchemy, it would likely just give them up.

The Sheng Dan Sect didn’t want to give up, and this time they came over, in fact, to test the waters, including the fact that not long ago, the distribution of some of the pills was deliberately adjusted downwards, which was also a kind of test, wanting to make more money as a result.

So Elder Luo just wanted to go and take a look, to meet what kind of person Zhou An really was, and after he went back, he would be able to make his next move.

Even Elder Luo felt that he had been slighted, and there was still resentment in his heart.

After all, even someone as honorable as himself had come over, but he had not seen this kind of expression from Meng Jiang, and he was curious about the other party’s real situation.

The merchant didn’t think too much about it, he thought that Elder Luo really thought that way, so he could only agree and lead the way in front.

Soon, the two of them were out of the room and headed towards the hall of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.

—————–

In the hall of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.

At this moment, Zhou An was leading the woman in black, sitting on a chair, waiting patiently.

Beside him, a bunch of businessmen surrounded him, all making self-introductions there, still very enthusiastic.

There was no way, when the status position was raised, this was the impact that came with it.

Zhou An knew very well what these businessmen were thinking, they wanted to get acquainted with themselves, in case they encountered an opportunity to soar in the future, they were able to soar into the sky.

This idea was actually a normal idea that all normal people had, so although Zhou An saw through it thoroughly, he didn’t say anything.

And that’s how his temperament was.

You give me face, I give you face.

If people respect me, I respect them.

So with a very natural attitude, he was making small talk one by one.

The woman in black, on the other hand, sat on the side and touched the chair in her hand, feeling that it was not interesting at all.

She still thought that the chair at home was better, but except for the first day after Zhou An allowed her to carry it out, she was not allowed to carry it out afterward, and her attitude was very strong.

Between the chair and Zhou An, the woman in black used a long time to make a very difficult decision and chose Zhou An.

“Go home.” The woman in black pulled Zhou An’s hand and looked at Zhou An with a very pitiful look.

Zhou An smiled and shook his head, touching the black woman’s head, “I’ll go back when I’m done with my work, don’t worry, it’s fun here too.”

The black woman gave a soft oh sound, it was hard to hide the disappointment in her eyes, but she still sat obediently on the side and did not continue to make trouble.

Zhou An lifted his teacup and took a sip, only just putting it down when he heard a rush of footsteps.

Without asking, he knew that it must be Meng Jiang coming over.

Zhou An turned his head and saw that Meng Jiang had already come closer.

The merchant next to him even moved a chair for him to sit down.

Meng Jiang had only just sat down when he couldn’t wait to arch his hand, “Lord Zhou, it’s been a long time.”

It had indeed been a long time, ever since Zhou An had come to Maplewood Prefecture, other than seeing him a few times at the very beginning, he had been burying his head in liver proficiency.

Either that or he had something important to do.

This Hengtong Chamber of Commerce had in turn come less often.

Meng Jiang understood the meaning of the higher-ups very well.

At any time, in any situation, not only could he not offend Zhou An, but he also had to help Zhou An.

So this was the first time he rushed over.

Zhou An arched his hand and said, “It’s really because I’ve been too busy lately, so I seldom come over, so please forgive me, Brother Meng.”

The attitude was very sincere and there was no intention of hypocrisy.

At least on the surface, Meng Jiang felt that Zhou An’s reply made him very comfortable.

Especially when he looked at Zhou An’s sincerity, Meng Jiang remembered Elder Luo from not too long ago, and sighed inwardly.

There was no way to compare this person to person.

Especially when he thought of Elder Luo’s arrogant appearance, Meng Jiang felt more and more uncomfortable.

Of course, as a businessman, he naturally covered it up and said with a smile, “Lord Zhou, if there’s anything you need, just say it, as long as there’s something we, the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, can do, we’ll absolutely do everything in our power to help Your Excellency.”

He didn’t find it troublesome at all for Zhou An to come to him for help, he instead felt it was an honor.

With a businessman’s vision, they could see that Zhou An would never be a pool animal in the future, so the more good karma they made now, the better they would be able to do in the future.

Zhou An was also a straightforward person, and said bluntly, “I want to borrow your precious land and learn a bit about arithmetic, and I even want Brother Meng to introduce me to a good teacher.”

Meng Jiang froze, he was really not expecting Zhou An to come with this sentence.

He had thought that Zhou An should ask him a bit of a difficult question, but he had never expected that the request made would be so simple.

Learning arithmetic and finding a good teacher?

Meng Jiang had all these things, and was able to find them almost anywhere and help Zhou An accomplish them.

Businessmen, who wouldn’t know how to do math, and the best teachers, of course, were also businessmen.

Although it was simple, Meng Jiang felt that this favor was a bit of a loss.

“Lord Zhou, are you sure you only need these things? If so, it can be arranged for you now.” Meng Jiang said.

Zhou An nodded, “Sure, hurry up and arrange it, just so I can hurry up too.”

The development of new skills had to be done without stopping.

Not only would he be able to probe the roots of the woman in black, but he would also be able to add a handful of safeguards for himself.

Zhou An felt that he was a person with a strong sense of purpose.

When there was a goal, he would immediately start working on it.

Meng Jiang wasn’t a nagging person, and since Zhou An had decided on it, he was soon ready to arrange for a merchant who was the most proficient in arithmetic so that he could teach Zhou An how to count.

But before he could turn his head to make the arrangements, he saw a man, walking out of the room where the meeting was taking place.

The merchant who had just run in to inform him was bringing Elder Luo with him.

“Why is he coming over?” Meng Jiang was slightly stunned.

Before he could react, Elder Luo had already walked closer and gazed at Zhou An from top to bottom.

Zhou An felt strange.

He did not recognize this person at all, so he looked up and surveyed Elder Luo, narrowing his eyes.

Zhou An felt as if the somewhat older old man in front of him was looking at him with a scrutinizing flavor.

Although he didn’t recognize it, this kind of gaze was something he disliked.

Before he could speak to Meng Jiang, Elder Luo spoke.

“You’re Lord Zhou An Zhou, right? I’ve met Lord Zhou, I’m an Elder of the Sheng Dan Sect, my surname is Luo, you can just call me Elder Luo.”

The abrupt opening, the abrupt greeting, paired with this expression on Elder Luo’s face, it instead appeared to be unobtrusive.

In Elder Luo’s mind, he had come over to see Zhou An, which was considered giving face, and also because Zhou An was the hand of the Crafting Supervisor.

After all, they alchemists did not have any interactions with Zhou An, nor did they go to a situation where they were licking their chops like the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.

Elder Luo had only wanted to come over to see what kind of person it was that could make Meng Jiangdu in such a hurry, so naturally, he again carried that condescending attitude that was characteristic of alchemists.

Zhou An frowned, then his body leaned back, leaned on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, took a sip of tea, and put the teacup aside: “Alright, I recognize, you go.”

The light words were filled with a sense of not caring.

Elder Luo was slightly stunned, he did not expect Zhou An to have this attitude, frowning, “Lord Zhou, what do you mean by this?”

In his thoughts, as long as one was a person in the line of work, the need for pills was there, so Zhou An would at least be harmonious on the surface.

But he never expected to end up with this kind of result, so Elder Luo was very unhappy.

At the end, he even added.

“Could it be that I have offended Lord Zhou in some way?”

Elder Luo felt that there was something wrong with Zhou An’s attitude.

He was now eager to see what Zhou An would say next.

Just at this moment, Zhou An was looking at him with a look of a fool.

This gaze irritated him.

Elder Luo was still ready to speak, but Zhou An didn’t let him go on.

Zhou An finally put the teacup down, then looked at Meng Jiang and said, “Brother Meng, is this your guest?”

Meng Jiang nodded, his face slightly somber.

As a businessman, how could Meng Jiang not understand Zhou An’s meaning.

This Elder Luo, coming up with an I’m very familiar with you look, and his words still had that alchemist’s condescension in them.

Not to mention Zhou An, he felt irritated even looking at him.

On account of the fact that he had a lot of cooperation with the Sheng Dan Sect in his day-to-day life, he gave a wink to Elder Luo, meaning that he must keep a low profile.

As the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce and having worked with Zhou An, he certainly knew Zhou An’s bottom line.

Those who were arrogant in front of Zhou An, that really hadn’t seen many alive.

He was worried that with a single slash, Zhou An would split this Elder Luo in half.

Who knew that this look in his eyes, in Elder Luo’s eyes, would in turn be the kind that made Elder Luo show weakness.

What kind of person was Elder Luo?

On weekdays, relying on his status as an alchemist, he felt that he was the one who had to make others humble, so his displeased mindset rose up again.

“Lord Zhou, with this attitude, you are really trying to upset all the alchemists in the world, you must know that this alchemist and the people in the line can be close-knit.”

Zhou An’s eyes narrowed, “Alchemist, I seem to have come into contact with it, right, it seems to be a branch of yours called Dan Ghost, at that time, it seemed to be inside the Creepy Gathering.”

This person Zhou An also remembered up, after all, he also let himself swing a few knives.

It seemed like he was called Li Ruofeng to come, and he ended up turning into Ash.

When Elder Luo heard the words Dan Ghost, his face changed drastically, as if he had committed a great taboo, and he violently retreated a few steps back.

“What, is the Dan Ghost scary?” Zhou An asked.

Before Elder Luo could speak, Meng Jiang explained over there.

“Lord Zhou doesn’t know, in that line of Dan Ghosts, initially it was using people to refine dan, then it was using the alchemy of the people in the line, and at the back it was even taking peers, that is to say, using alchemists, so many alchemists who mention Dan Ghosts, talk about it in a scary way.”

By this time, Meng Jiang no longer wanted to remind Elder Luo, he even felt that Elder Luo was set to eat this loss.

And after eating this loss, Meng Jiang felt that he was, on the contrary, happy.

You see, I reminded you, but you didn’t give me face, you had to go and offend Lord Zhou, and if you were really cut down by Lord Zhou, you were asking for it.

As for the Sheng Dan Sect behind you wanting to cause trouble, then you’ll have to see if it’s you, the Sheng Dan Sect, that’s hard, or Lord Zhou.

“I see.” Zhou An stroked his chin and said, “By the way, Brother Meng you still haven’t answered me, is he your honored guest.”

Meng Jiang shook his head, “In the past, but not anymore, in the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, the most honored one is only Lord Zhou.”

“Very well.” Zhou An clapped his hands, “I like this statement from Brother Meng.”

As the two of them sang this, Elder Luo also finally reacted.

He clenched his fists and said, “Lord Zhou, in which place did you meet the Dan Ghost? Do you think that threatening with a Dan Ghost will work?”

Zhou An didn’t mean to answer, didn’t even want to take offense, and just faintly said two words, “Get him.”

He didn’t say it to Meng Jiang, but to the woman in black next to him.

After the two simple words were spoken, the woman in black’s eyes lit up, shifting from bewilderment to excitement.

She had been suffocating here for a long time and wanted to go home.

The woman in black felt that the only way to be more free was to return home.

But Zhou An still had things to do, so she was also very good and didn’t make any trouble.

But this old man was nagging and very annoying, and was deliberately slowing down Zhou An.

So the woman in black had been uncomfortable for a long time, but just because Zhou An was here, she hadn’t made a move.

Now that Zhou An had uttered these two words, the woman in black finally couldn’t help herself and struck out very decisively.

A bagua flashed across the ground, very fast, from bright to extinguished, just a blink of an eye.

But in this blink of an eye, Elder Luo flew out backwards, his mouth full of blood.

Elder Luo couldn’t believe it, he wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, he was already extremely injured, and hurriedly pulled out a bottle of elixir from his pocket and took it, “You, how did you dare to make a move?”

Zhou An smiled and turned his head, “Remember, in the future, when I say get, it’s for life.”

The black-clothed woman drifted off, seeming to understand, nodding her head and inwardly making a silent note of it.

“To get killed, get it …… fight, go home!”

How is this not a pua?

Elder Luo could feel that the killing aura on Zhou An’s body, especially the black-clothed woman beside Zhou An, that kind of bewilderment and excitement in his eyes, surprisingly carried a bloodlust that made him afraid.

It was an emotion that still made him shiver.

This was the real woman in black, the woman in black that had come out from the trick rally.

If there wasn’t Zhou An, then there was no bottom line as to what kind of evil the woman in black would have become.

Elder Luo hurriedly climbed up, on his hands and knees, trying to leave the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.

He didn’t even dare to let out a harsh word, fearing that he would be left behind by Zhou An after saying it.

However, it never occurred to him that before he could take two steps out, Meng Jiang suddenly spoke.

“Wait.”

As these two were said, Elder Luo hurriedly stopped, trembling and not daring to speak.

Meng Jiang turned his head and arched his hand at Zhou An, “Lord Zhou, I know his temper, he will definitely add to the story when he goes back, he is indeed not a thing, but there are good people in a portion of the Sheng Dan Sect, the crime is not so bad.”

Zhou An said indifferently, “He went out of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, encountered Zongxian on the way, and died at the hands of Zongxian, what’s it got to do with me?”

Elder Luo: “……”

Good fellow, blatantly telling himself that when he went out and died, it was done by Zong Shi.

Isn’t this making himself afraid to go out?

“Lord Zhou, Mister Meng wants to have a cheeky word, he shouldn’t dare.” Meng Jiang said.

“You can say it, feel free to say it.” Zhou An smiled and said, “Your brother Meng’s face, I still have to give it, after all, I’m still friends with the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce.”

Meng Jiang nodded, took a deep breath, and slowly said, “Elder Luo, if you don’t want to bring about the destruction of the Sheng Dan Sect, you’d better be truthful about what I’m going to say next.”

“The Lord Zhou standing in front of you is not only the hand of the Maple Forest Prefecture’s Craftsmanship Supervisor, he is also the famous Knife and Wok Duo in the Jianghu, the role model that all the healers in the Great Chu Kingdom worship.”

“What’s more, Lord Zhou is the life and death brother of Tiancheng Prefecture’s Prefect Yu Hang, the same Yu Hang who caned the entire Tiancheng Prefecture’s Sheng Dan Sect a hundred times.”

Elder Luo froze, and immediately afterward, said in a horrified tone, “You’re the Sword and Pot Dual Master? The best brother of that Yu Fu Order in Tian Cheng Province?”

Zhou An: “?”

Wait, there’s a bit too much information.

Yu Hang was in the Sky City Mansion and had gotten into so much trouble?
