Volume One, Chapter 165

Gu Xiao had just regained his composure when he heard a low, majestic shout.

Turning his head to look, he saw a tall, round-waisted, bejeweled middle-aged man walking with his head held high, followed by the guard just now.

"This is Gong Hanfei, the shopkeeper of the Imperial City Branch."

After seeing the middle-aged man, Mo Jing introduced his identity to Gu Xiao in a low voice. Gu Xiao nodded lightly after hearing this.

As soon as Gu Xiao nodded, Li Yi jumped up and arrived in front of Gong Hanfei. He said hurriedly: "Shopkeeper Gong, you came just in time! Help me!"

"You are..." Gong Hanfei frowned, and when he saw Li Yi's face clearly, he suddenly said: "It turns out to be Li Xian's nephew, why do you have time to come to my Jubaoxuan today?"

Hearing Gong Hanfei's tone, Li Yi felt happy, then with a stern look on his face, he pointed at Gu Xiao: "Shopkeeper Gong, I was originally choosing what I wanted, but this guy came up and beat me for no reason, and now he still wants to

Kill me!"

Um?!

Gong Hanfei's smile froze, his brows furrowed, and he turned his head to look at Gu Xiao, but when he saw Gu Xiao, he showed a hint of surprise.

Judging from his age, he is only seventeen or eighteen, but he is in the third level of supernatural power! Could he be a young talent from the Great Xia Dynasty...

As the shopkeeper, Gong Hanfei naturally had a sharp eye. He saw Gu Xiao's talent and made this judgment.

Moreover, he also discovered at this time that Mo Jing next to Gu Xiao was actually one position behind him.

A young man who can make Mo Jing, who is the patrol envoy of Dongshizhou, accompany him carefully...

Thinking of this, Gong Hanfei had an idea in his mind.

"Old Mo, this little brother has a sharp eye. Shouldn't you introduce him to him?"

Mo Jing was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Gu Xiao, with a trace of hesitation on his face.

Just when Mo Jing was considering whether to reveal Gu Xiao's identity to Gong Hanfei, Lin Xueyu stepped forward.

"Shopkeeper Gong, my daughter Yu Kang, Lin Xueyu of the Lin family, has met shopkeeper Gong."

"The Yukanglin family..."

Gong Hanfei muttered something in a low voice, and then he suddenly understood Lin Xueyu's identity.

After all, the recent news that Lin Xueyu is going to marry into the royal family has caused such a stir that it is difficult not to know about it.

But what did Lin Xueyu mean when he spoke now?

Gong Hanfei frowned slightly and was about to speak, but he inadvertently saw the expression on Gu Xiao's face. After a pause, the corners of his mouth twitched.

"Shopkeeper Gong, this is my husband Gu Xiao. He didn't understand the rules when he first came to the imperial city. He had some small conflicts with Master Li. He didn't mean to cause trouble. Please take this for your consideration..."

"Hmph! Bitch! Who do you think Shopkeeper Gong is? Do you need to be wary of Zuo Qiumao?!"

Before Lin Xueyu finished speaking, Li Yi, who heard such remarks for the second time, interrupted angrily on the spot.

But Li Yi didn't notice that after he shouted angrily, Gong Hanfei's face darkened.

"Ahem! Miss Lin, they are all young people and I understand that they have a temper. It is not uncommon for them to get into fights if they disagree, but you can't damage the door of my Jubaoxuan!"

After Gong Hanfei finished speaking, he looked at Gu Xiao again.

"Little brother, the door of my Jubaoxuan is made of thousand-year-old mahogany. This door costs at least one hundred thousand taels of silver..."

this……

Gong Hanfei's change of topic was so unexpected that few people could react for a moment.

But soon, the clever Lin Xueyu heard Gong Hanfei's hidden line, and his face lit up with joy.

"Shopkeeper Gong, one hundred thousand taels is not a decimal amount. We may not be able to get it out at the moment. Please allow us to sign a note and give it a few days, and we will definitely compensate you in full."

Seeing that Lin Xueyu was so smart, Gong Hanfei smiled slightly and then his face became serious again: "I am not an unreasonable person. Things can be done this way, but one hundred thousand taels is indeed not a small amount. There must be someone to guarantee..."

Gong Han tilted his head and focused his gaze on Mo Jing.

Sensing Gong Hanfei's gaze, Mo Jing was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously: "I can vouch for Mr. Gu!"

Mo Jing's tone was decisive. After hearing this, Gong Hanfei raised his eyebrows and secretly thought, as expected, Gu Xiao's identity was by no means as simple as it seemed.

"No! We can't just let it go!"

Just when Gong Hanfei was worried, Li Yi jumped out again and looked at Gong Hanfei's expression becoming unhappy.

"Shopkeeper Gong, this guy has damaged Jubaoxuan's face, so it's not appropriate for you to just ask him to pay the money, isn't it?!"

Seeing the anger on Li Yi's face, Gong Hanfei's face darkened again, and he felt even more unhappy.

Li Yi's words previously made him offend Zuo Qiumao invisibly, and now he looked at him with this expression...

"Then what does Master Li think we should do to satisfy you?!"

Gong Hanfei's words, both in tone and in words, showed obvious displeasure, and even the onlookers could hear it.

However, Li Yi was like a fool and didn't hear it at all. Instead, he laughed evilly and said: "It's very simple. As long as this boy kneels down, kowtows three times and apologizes to you in person, I will no longer pursue this matter."

thing!"

As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, Gu Xiao narrowed his eyes and revealed his murderous intent without any concealment.

You know, now Li Yi is standing next to Gong Hanfei and kowtows to Gong Hanfei, which is equivalent to kowtowing to him Li Yi.

Not to mention that Gu Xiao would not kneel down to apologize, even if he did, it would only be in front of Hua Dongling’s grave!

Lin Xueyu had been getting along with Gu Xiao for a long time, so how could Lin Xueyu not know how Gu Xiao would react after hearing such words, so she quickly stepped in front of Gu Xiao.

"Master Li, your request is too much! We admit that it has damaged Jubaoxuan's face, but it is okay for us to apologize, but it is absolutely impossible for us to kneel down and apologize!"

Lin Xueyu's tone was neither humble nor arrogant, but after regaining his cultivation, the arrogance unique to a genius was revealed inadvertently. Even the well-informed Gong Hanfei also showed admiration for Lin Xueyu at this time.

Comparing the playfulness and uneducated Li Yi, he is simply the difference between a god and a cow dung!

In order to prevent Li Yi from continuing to be stupid and causing unnecessary trouble for Jubaoxuan, Gong Hanfei said: "What Miss Lin said makes sense, then I will apologize in public and let this matter be revealed. No one should mention it again."

.”

Upon hearing Gong Hanfei's words, Li Yi became anxious again and was about to speak, but he was glared coldly by Gong Hanfei and choked on the words that came to his lips.

Lin Xueyu felt relieved when he saw this, and quickly turned around and whispered: "Gu Xiao, I know it's not your fault, but this is the imperial city, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, so you have to endure it."

Although Lin Xueyu's voice was low, Mo Jing and Gong Hanfei's cultivation was so close that they could hear every word. After listening, both of them showed their appreciation for Lin Xueyu.

But Gu Xiao, who was the closest, seemed to have not heard anything at all, and was completely unmoved. He even showed Li Yi's murderous intention even more.

Feeling that Gu Xiao's murderous intention was increasing again, Lin Xueyu felt anxious and quickly held down Gu Xiao's hand: "Gu Xiao, the Li family is one of the four great families in the imperial city. The level of magical power in the family exceeds ten. Stop being so angry.

How is it?"

Gu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and his murderous intent paused. Then he tilted his head, and after seeing the pleading on Lin Xueyu's face, the murderous intent finally dissipated completely.

Gu Xiao's murderous intention dissipated, and Lin Xueyu was completely relieved.

Mo Jing, who also felt that Gu Xiao's murderous intention had subsided, breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "Mr. Gu, Shopkeeper Gong is not an unreasonable person, but I just want to apologize..."

"I won't apologize."

Before Mo Jing finished speaking, he was coldly interrupted by Gu Xiao, and these words made Lin Xueyu's heart lift again.

After hearing this, Gong Hanfei frowned, then narrowed his eyes, his smiling face became a little gloomy, and in his heart, he even put Gu Xiao on the same level as Li Yi.

Li Yi was closest to Gong Hanfei, so he naturally saw Gong Hanfei's displeasure clearly, so he jumped out again: "Good boy, Lord Shopkeeper Gong spared you a lot, but you are so ignorant of praise!"

The instigation behind these words was so obvious that Gong Hanfei couldn't hear it. However, Gu Xiao's attitude was indeed a bit unflattering, so he didn't speak, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Gong Hanfei's acquiescence made Li Yi even more happy, so he opened his mouth again, but unexpectedly he received Gu Xiao's third slap in the face.

The crisp slaps caused the entire door to fall into an eerie silence. Those who were watching the excitement looked at Gu Xiao as if they were looking at a madman.

When Gong Hanfei asked Gu Xiao to apologize, they thought that the fun was over, but they didn't expect that Gu Xiao would do such a thing. They immediately became interested again, and one of the good guys even secretly said "well done".

Hearing this "good fight", Gong Hanfei also came back to his senses. The moment he came back to his senses, his face became quite gloomy, and the aura of the eighth level of supernatural power was clearly revealed.

Gong Hanfei's momentum rose, Mo Jing's face was startled, and he was about to block Gu Xiao, but Gu Xiao opened his mouth.

"You're just a dandy who uttered arrogant words in my Jubaoxuan. I endured it again and again, but I still kept pushing. Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?!"

this……

Gu Xiao's words made everyone stunned again, with unclear expressions on their faces.

What does it mean to say arrogant words in my Jubaoxuan?

Could it be...

Just when everyone had their suspicions, they saw Gu Xiao take out a token and throw it to Gong Hanfei.

"Shopkeeper Gong, as a guest of Jubaoxuan, I face the madman who provokes me, Jubaoxuan, and then damages my own finances after teaching me a lesson. Isn't it a shame?"

While Gu Xiao was talking, Gong Hanfei had already looked at the token carefully. As the semicolon shopkeeper, he could recognize the authenticity of the token, and his face was stunned.

But when he was stunned, everyone who was not stupid saw that Gu Xiao's guest token was genuine, and they all looked at Gu Xiao with surprise, even Mo Jing and Lin Xueyu were no exception.

Lin Xueyu, in particular, was more surprised than everyone present, and at the same time he also felt strong curiosity in his heart.

"Ahem! It turns out to be Mr. Customer, but Gong is disrespectful."

At this moment, Gong Hanfei coughed slightly, his gloomy face disappeared and turned into a warm one.

But despite such warmth, Gu Xiao's expression remained unchanged. Instead, his eyes were still fixed on Gong Hanfei without moving.
