I saw that it was filled with all kinds of treasures and spiritual stones, especially middle-grade spiritual stones. They were piled up like a mountain. A rough estimate was that there were nearly five million.

A hint of surprise flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes, and he couldn't help but chuckle: "As expected of the steward of Tianxiahui Trading House, there is really a lot of money. You actually have so many middle-grade items hidden in your storage ring

Spiritual stones, then I won’t be polite and will accept them all.”

After that, he waved his hand gently, and the storage ring disappeared in his palm, as if it had never appeared. Ling Xiao stood up and clapped his hands, as if he had accomplished something great.

He turned around and prepared to leave, walking lightly and calmly. He knew that this was the Tianxiahui trading house after all, and although he was not weak in strength, he did not want to go too far. Anyway, he had received enough rewards, and he had also taken revenge on the other party.

It's quite satisfying.

However, just as he was about to step out of the door, he suddenly stopped and looked back at the old man who fell to the ground.

…

In the Tianxiahui, in the Upper House, the atmosphere in the Head Court Hall was extremely heavy. In the splendid hall, several Head Courts gathered together, with different expressions on their faces, but most of them were worried about what was about to happen.

.

The Grandmaster sat on the main seat, his face full of helplessness and anxiety. He was wearing a robe inlaid with gold and a jade crown on his head, looking majestic and solemn.

At this moment, he frowned, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes: "Fourth, is everything you said true? That boy Ling Xiao actually went to the trading house to cause trouble? He also cut off one of Manager Zhang's

Arm, snatched his storage ring?"

Si Zhangyuan stood aside with a wry smile on his face.

He was wearing a blue robe and a belt inlaid with gems around his waist. He looked elegant and wealthy. He sighed and said: "It's absolutely true, Grand Master. If this matter spreads, I'm afraid that

There will be an uproar, and it will be difficult for us in the House of Lords to stay out of it."

The Third Palm Court couldn't help but interjected: "It's impossible for him to take action against Manager Zhang without any reason, right? There must be something fishy in this."

The Fourth Zhangyuan nodded and continued: "I also heard from people that what the trading house did this time was indeed a bit unethical. It is said that Ling Xiao booked a rare item at the trading house, but the trading house shied away from it with various reasons.

Not only do we not plan to give him anything, we don’t even plan to return the spiritual stones he paid in advance.”

"Actually, the trading houses have done this before, but nothing happened. After all, the trading houses have a special status in the Tianxiahui, and they have the backing of the Secret Academy. Few people dare to go against them. But this time, they encountered

When it comes to Ling Xiao, a guy who doesn’t act according to common sense. Ling Xiao dares to offend even Ou Luan, so how can he get used to people from the trading house?"

When Si Zhangyuan said this, a helpless smile appeared on his face.

"I heard that Ling Xiao should have been deprived of 300,000 mid-grade spiritual stones, but he opened his mouth and asked the trading house for 3 million mid-grade spiritual stones as compensation." The Third Palm Court added.

"The strange thing is that he actually still has a real bill from the trading house." The Grand Master said solemnly, "This bill is not trivial, it is a certificate from the trading house. If it were not true, Ling Xiao would not be able to get such a bill.

"

The Fourth Master nodded and continued: "That's true. This bill not only has the special mark of the trading house, but also Ming Lao's autograph. It seems that this time the trading house has really offended the wrong person.

.”

"..." Upon hearing the news, the Grandmaster couldn't help but smile bitterly. He gently stroked his forehead, as if it could alleviate some of his inner anxiety. At this moment, the helplessness and bitter smile on his face were intertwined, as if he was worried about Ling.

Xiao was both surprised and helpless by this young man's behavior.

"This kid is really a lunatic who doesn't act according to common sense." The Grandmaster whispered to himself, his voice showing a bit of exhaustion and worry.

He understands that now that Mr. Ming has passed away unfortunately, and there is no evidence of his death, the three million medium-grade spiritual stone compensation proposed by Ling Xiao, I am afraid that the trading house can only be dumb and eat coptis, and cannot tell the pain.

"Da Zhang Yuan, please stop praising him." The Fourth Zhang Yuan eagerly interrupted the Grand Zhang Yuan's meditation. His face was full of anxiety and uneasiness, "If we don't deal with it, I'm afraid things will get worse.

The more intense it is, the harder it will be to end it when the time comes."

The Grand Master raised his head, looked at the anxious expressions of the Four Masters, and couldn't help but feel nervous. He understood that they could no longer delay this situation. He stood up, straightened his clothes, and prepared to go to the trading house to deal with this matter.

thing.

"Okay, I'll go over there right away." The Grand Master said solemnly, his tone revealing a bit of firmness and determination. He knew that things would definitely not be that simple when he went over to deal with them this time.

The conflict between them has intensified to this point, and I'm afraid some price will have to be paid to resolve it.

However, he had no other choice. As one of the heads of the House of Lords, he could not just watch things get out of hand. He could only do his best to calm down the turmoil and maintain the stability of the Tianxiahui.

The Grand Master walked out of the Master Hall with heavy steps, but his heart was full of uneasiness and worry. He didn't know what kind of situation he would face this time, and he didn't know if Ling Xiao would make any unexpected moves again.

But he knew that no matter what the outcome was, he had to face it and shoulder his responsibilities as the leader.

Of course, the most important thing is that he is really afraid that Ling Xiao will directly poke a hole in the sky.

…

In the trading house, the atmosphere was so tense that even the air seemed frozen. Ling Xiao stood in the middle of the lobby, his green shirt fluttering in the wind, and an uninhibited smile on his face. He was about to leave, but was stopped by an angry roar again.

"Do you think you can just walk away so easily just because you are causing trouble here?" Manager Zhang's voice was sharp and angry. He was covering his right arm that was broken by Ling Xiao's palm. His face was pale and cold sweat was pouring from his forehead.

His eyes were shining with hatred, and he stared at Ling Xiao, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

Manager Zhang was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, embroidered with complicated patterns, which showed his status in the trading house. However, at this moment, the brocade robe looked a little messy because of his anger, and it lost its former prestige.

.

"I have already sent someone to notify the Academy of Secrets. Even if you are a disciple of the Upper Academy, you are just a small role in front of the Academy of Secrets." Manager Zhang said through gritted teeth. His voice echoed in the trading house, making people shudder.

When Ling Xiao heard this, a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He turned his head slightly, looked at Manager Zhang's twisted face, and chuckled: "Oh? Secret Courtyard? Secret Courtyard is very powerful, but do your words work?

, I don’t know.”

His voice was calm and confident, as if he didn't care about the coming storm. He clapped his hands gently, as if to dispel the tension in the air.
