Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Childe Look That was all a misunderstanding said Du Tiannan, who had now changed his attitude in a flash. I was ignorant! I didnt know that you were that close to Master Liu Si! I am willing to apologize!

I I am sorry too Yun Ziqiao hid behind Du Tiannan, putting away all the arrogance and vanity he previously had.

Huh, apologize? If apology matters, why did you ask for the regulatory affairs manager then? Chen Xiaobei said.

Half a minute ago, you took my scythe, and was going to file the suit first! You were about to get the manager to kick me out of the black market! Do you think that an apology would suffice? Just because you said a sorry, I can pretend that nothing happened? There wont be an easy ending for you!

The corner of Du Tiannans lips twitched. Childe! In Jianghu, its better to gain a friend than make another enemy! Even if you do not accept my apology; for the sake of Divine Fist Sect, you should seriously consider changing your mind

Chen Xiaobei laughed. What a joke! I dont have any relations with your family at all. Why should I give face to you?

You Du Tiannans face squirmed in a spasm of rage.

In Black Tortoise continent, not only was the Divine First Sect considered the most powerful faction, but they were also definitely one of the upper mid-tier factions!

Its name alone, the Divine Fist Sect, could make both the black and white sides show them some good old respect.

But not only did Chen Xiaobei not give face, but he also went ahead and gave him a tight slap. This was the very first time Du Tiannan encountered such an arrogant person.

Chen Xiaobei shrugged. I shall not say more. If you refuse to slap your own face, I guess well just have to follow the rules!

Du Tiannan could not decide. If no one else was around, then it would have been fine. But with hundreds of eyes watching him, and in front of the woman he admired, slapping his own face, even if it were just ten strikes would bring shame to his and his familys face!

He would never look the same to Yun Ziqiao, and would lose any opportunity to win her over ever again!

Du Tiannan found himself at a crossroads.

Why are you doing? Go ahead and slap yourself! Liu Si barked. Childe Chen has already been very lenient with you! If you dont start slapping yourself now, I will just play according to the rules, and destroy both of your cultivation. I will then ban you from Yellow Wind forever! These are the rules of the old master!

Du Tiannan and Yun Ziqiao inhaled sharply. When they heard the name old master, they quivered as if they had been struck by lightning.

We were wrong We are willing to slap ourselves

Du Tiannan gritted his teeth, raised both hands to his face and slapped himself ten times in the face.

Bro Tiannan I Yun Ziqiao had never been struck by anyone before. She never thought her first time would be her slapping herself.

Ziqiao Its okay We have no choice Du Tiannan cried. Old masters rules. You probably already know the outcome Even if our family came together, we would still not be strong enough

I Yun Ziqiao had no other choice. So, she struck herself in the face ten times before everyone in the black market.

Master Liu Si, can we leave now? Du Tiannans face was burning hot. His only wish now was to escape all the unwanted attention.

Master Liu Si glanced at Chen Xiaobei. When he saw that Chen Xiaobei had no problem with it, he snapped, Go!

Du Tiannan quickly grabbed Yun Ziqiao and left the scrutinizing gaze of the crowd.

Master Liu Si said, Childe Shall we continue our walk elsewhere?

Chen Xiaobei shook his head. Im not in the mood anymore. Find us a place to rest. Inform us tomorrow when the auction begins!

Are you here to join the auction? Master Liu Si said. Ill go arrange a resting place for you now but the remaining five bottles of wines, I havent found anything to exchange

Dont worry, Im not that greedy! Chen Xiaobei said. I already got a free Tiger Claw Scythe. I wont make things difficult for you!

Chen Xiaobei handed over five bottles of Hundreds Fruit Dragon Dick Moonshine to the man eager to regain his vigour.

Thank you! Thank you exclaimed Master Liu Si who was clearly euphoric. I will go get a place ready for you now! If you need me, just hit me up!

Chen Xiaobei was being nice and mean at the same time. This ensured that Liu Si stood on his side.

Chen Xiaobei and Su Xiaoman were allowed to rest for the night in the markets private luxury cavern to wait for the auction the next day.

Master Liu Si even assigned people to serve them with sumptuous fragrant tea, fragrant dim sum, and fresh fruits. It was all a very thoughtful gesture.

After everyone else was gone, Su Xiaoman asked, Childe Zhufeng, theres something I dont quite understand There was no need to create such a big scene today although it was very satisfying to teach Du Tiannan and Yun Ziqiao a lesson. Showing off your ability like that will make you the focal point of the black market! This will just invite more trouble

I did it on purpose! Chen Xiaobei grinned. The Yellow Wind black markets rules are very strict, and no one would dare violate it! Even if I have a target on my back, I am completely safe!

So, you purposely made a scene so that people will target you? Su Xiaoman looked at Chen Xiaobei quizzically. But how does that benefit you?

I was just testing my luck to see if I could catch the black markets old masters attention! Chen Xiaobei said. If he does, then he will want to talk to Liu Si! Liu Si will not lie, so hell talk about my godly wine! If the old master is interested in this wine, Ill leave this place with bulging pockets!

Oh! Su Xiaoman gasped. Childe Zhufeng! You are incredible! I thought you had ill intentions when you made them slap themselves! You simply deliberately created a scene to achieve an objective!

Chen Xiaobei shrugged. The world is a game of chess; one thinks three steps ahead before making a move! Cudgel your brain a little more, and always plan ahead so that the road ahead will be easier!

Think three steps ahead before making a move! Thats a very good rationale! Su Xiaoman applauded. Childe Zhufeng, you really are my idol! Most people cant even come up with such philosophical statements!

Philosophical? Its nothing Chen Xiaobei scratched his head awkwardly. Who knew huh, that King of Glory line could be used to act cool?

It now seemed that this game was not completely useless after all!

But, what if the old master is not interested in you? Theres no problem with his root Su Xiaoman blushed.

I was just testing my luck! Chen Xiaobei shrugged. That old master is not a common man. Who knows, he might foresee into the far future?

I dont quite get what you mean Su Xiaoman shook her head.

Dont crack your head over it! Well find out tomorrow! Chen Xiaobei answered. Rest up! Ill continue to cultivate!
