Cao Jie was really scared.
After seeing Su Shi’s strength in Yulin City, he had already realized that he had offended the wrong person. But he never thought that he would be so wrong!
Holy-grade perfect talent!
This kind of super genius, how could he possibly be a minor commander in Fengsha City?
It was obviously just a trick of the Demon Empress.
In the future, he would definitely become the Netherworld Rakshasa Sect’s main heir!
The matter in Tianqu Mountain had also spread, the Netherworld Demon Empress had almost eliminated Sword Master Chen Wangchuan to vent her anger in favor of Su Shi!
He was just a small commander, if the other party wanted to get rid of him, wouldn’t it be as easy as killing an ant?
Su Shi saw what he was thinking and said indifferently, “There is no need for Commander Cao to be concerned, bygones are bygones.”
Although the other party had spoken harshly, he had broken his arm, and had sent many spiritual stones as an apology.
It was just a small matter, there was no need to make a big deal out of it.
“I-“
Cao Jie said with a bitter smile, “I know that Commander Su is generous and will not be offended, but if you don’t accept these things, I, I will have trouble sleeping or eating!”
Su Shi said helplessly: “Wu Mang, put those into the warehouse.”
Wu Mang carried the boxes out.
Only then did Cao Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Shi said, “Someone, please serve tea.”
“Don’t bother.”
Cao Jie said with a smile: “I feel relieved now that the items have been received.”
“Today, there is an official sale in Qianyang City, and I need to be there in person, so I won’t trouble Commander Su any longer.”
“Official sale?”
Su Shi’s eyes flickered slightly.
Official sales were auctions held by the government.
The auctions usually included a wide variety of items, including spiritual treasures, houses, potions, cultivation methods …… and even slaves and women.
The proceeds are split equally between the government and the Chamber of Commerce.
The city had been dominated by the Demonic path for many years, and the government had long existed in name only, which, frankly, was Cao Jie’s gray income.
Cao Jie cupped his hands and said, “Then I will go back first, Commander Su can come to Qianyang City to have fun when you are free.”
“Alright.”
Su Shi nodded his head, “Let’s go.”
“Uh…. huh?”
Cao Jie was stunned, “Us?”
Su Shi shrugged, “Commander Cao’s generosity is unbearable, so I’ll have to respectfully comply.”
Cao Jie said with a forced smile, “But I’m afraid Commander Su has a lot of work to do-“
Su Shi shook his head and said, “I have too much time in my hands”
Cao Jie swallowed his saliva.
He was just being polite, but he didn’t expect this man to take it seriously!
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, it was just that this Commander Su had such an extraordinary background, if he were to offend him again, he had no money left to make up for it.
But at this moment, Cao Jie could only smile and said, “Alright, as the host I will do my part.”
“Let’s go.”
Su Shi stood up.
The auction in Qianyang City.
Although it was not the main storyline, he had the impression that there would be some good things.
After all, he did not dare to return to the sect now, so it was good to go there for a walk while he was free.
Qianyang City is not far from Fengsha City, only an hour by air.
The city is located north of the Fengjiang River.
Although it is not as big and important as Yulin City, it is very rich because it faces the Fengjiang River.
Otherwise, how could Cao Jie, who was only a small commander, have obtained so many high-grade spirit stones?
They entered the city.
Cao Jie invited, “The official sale will only start in the evening, why don’t you come to my place for tea first?”
Su Shi shook his head and said, “No need, Commander Cao please, I’ll take a walk myself.”
Seeing that he was really impolite, Cao Jie couldn’t insist, so he told him the official sales location and then turned around and left.
Su Shi walked down the street with his hands behind his back.
Although Qianyang City was not big, it was very lively here and there were many buildings, the prosperity was comparable to Yulin City.
“I thought Cao Jie’s strength was average, but I didn’t expect that his business skills were quite good.”
Su Shi silently nodded his head.
No one who could be the commander of a city was a simple person.
After walking around for a while, he passed by a restaurant.
It was noon, so he went in for lunch.
The restaurant had three floors, and although the decor was not luxurious, it was still decent.
Su Shi randomly found a seat on the first floor and sat down.
There was an old man on a high stage in the center who was telling stories, speaking at length and passionately.
From time to time, he even received a standing ovation.
Su Shi didn’t care at first, but the more he listened, the more he found something wrong.
Wasn’t he the protagonist the old man was telling about?
Hearing the old man tell the story eloquently, Su Shi got up from his seat:
“What kind of person is Su Shi?”
“A genius with Holy-grade perfect talent, one of the few people in ten thousand years!”
“There is no one like him before or after. Not even Tianji Pavilion’s Chief Disciple can match him!”
“He’s even more personable and dashing, with a handsome face!”
“This world only has three types of people, one is a man, one is a woman, and one is the handsome Su Shi!”
The female guests were so excited, they kept throwing money on the stage.
Su Shi covered his face.
This was too embarrassing!
He even suspected that this was a deliberate arrangement by Cao Jie.
“Pfft~”
At this moment, a laugh came from the seat next to him, and the sound was heart-wrenching: “Nonsense, have you ever seen Su Shi with your own eyes?”
Su Shi was stunned.
This voice seemed somewhat familiar.
The old man said unconvincingly, “I am just an ordinary human being, of course I have never met such genius, but this is all recognized by everyone! You say I’m talking nonsense, have you met him before?”
The woman’s voice hummed: “Of course I have met him, and I also …… cough, after all, Su Shi is not as you say.”
The old man asked, “Then tell me, what’s wrong with what I said?”
The woman’s voice paused for a moment and said, “Su Shi is eight feet tall, green-faced and ferocious, with a hideous and ferocious appearance that eats people without leaving a bone!”
Su Shi: “????”
“You’re talking nonsense!”
“Commander Su is a first-class handsome man!”
“You slandered our Su Shi just like that!”
“You must apologize to Su Shi for this!”
The other female guests were not happy, starting to make a scene and arguing with her.
Although Su Shi had just started making a name for himself, he was very popular in the Southwest Region and even had a fan club made up of young girls.
The woman was too lazy to argue with them, so she just snorted and didn’t say a word.
Only then did the restaurant gradually quieten down.
After a while, the woman got up from her seat.
A figure with a black veil and a tightly closed body came out.
After leaving the restaurant, she turned around and entered the alley.
She took off her veil and took a breath, revealing a beautiful face.
“Shouting, what a bunch of nymphomaniacs!”
The young woman snorted in disgust.
“Cough.”
At this point, a voice sounded behind her: “Hello again, little fox.”
The young lady’s body stiffened and she slowly turned to look.
She saw Su Shi leaning against the wall while crossing his arms, looking at her with a cold smile on his face.
Yu Ren’er’s expression stiffened and she smiled, “Brother Su Shi~”
“Stop right there.”
Su Shi pointed at his own face and gritted his teeth, “Come on, take a closer look, where’s my green face and fangs?!”
