Having said this, the old man turned sideways slightly and motioned the woman to look behind him. He saw four strong men in the Tianhe realm who were wearing uniform clothes and with calm auras standing silently. Although they were all in the early stage of the Tianhe realm, the pressure they exuded was

It cannot be ignored.

"These four are all elites carefully cultivated by our Bada Trading Company. They are not only profound in cultivation, but also have rich practical experience. To deal with this person, even if he is in his prime, we are confident to subdue him. Don't worry, Miss.

Let us handle the rest of the matter."

The woman looked at the four strong men who were waiting in full formation, her worries a little lessened, but she still couldn't hide her concern. She bit her lip lightly, and a flash of complicated emotions flashed in her eyes, both for the old man and the four strong men.

trust, but also worry about unknown dangers.

"Uncle Huang, be careful, he... doesn't seem to be simple." In the end, she chose to step aside. Although she was still unwilling to accept it, she also knew that although she was not weak in strength, in a confrontation of this level, her experience was limited.

And a lack of judgment can become a fatal weakness.

She decided to follow Uncle Huang's arrangement and wait and see what happened. At the same time, she prayed silently in her heart, hoping that everything would be resolved smoothly.

The old man's steps were steady, and each step revealed the calmness and majesty accumulated over the years. He walked slowly in front of Ling Xiao, chose a seat and sat down elegantly, with a warm smile on his face. There was praise for the young man in that smile.

It also seems to hide some exploration.

"Heroes come from young men! I have often heard rumors in the world that you, this young hero, come from the southern region where literary styles are flourishing and martial arts are prosperous?"

When Ling Xiao heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he smiled lightly, with a bit of uninhibitedness and freedom in his smile: "I came from Northern Xinjiang, and that vast land was once the cradle of my growth. Later,

With my infinite longing for martial arts, I set foot in the Southern Territory. Later, in pursuit of a higher realm, I went to the East China Sea."

When the old man heard this, a strange color flashed in his eyes, as if he could penetrate the long river of time and see the hardships and hardships Ling Xiao had along the way.

He whispered: "Northern Xinjiang is a place that people both love and fear. Once upon a time, the most terrifying demon sect on this continent was born there. Its power was so huge that it almost made the entire Baize Continent tremble.

At the same time, it was also the most fertile land for cultivation, where countless strong men rose up and left behind legends. The Southern Territory is also a magical land, which gave birth to peerless strong men like 'the best in the world'

, whose style is still praised by the world today.

When it comes to the limelight when you were young, you, Ling Xiao, are indeed a head and shoulders above the leader of the Demon Sect and the number one in the world, you are truly to be feared!"

"You are telling the truth!" Ling Xiao chuckled, with a sly arc at the corner of his mouth. The smile contained recognition of the old man's straightforward evaluation, but also contained a bit of the unruly and self-identity unique to young people. There was no trace of it at all.

A little bit of humility.

His eyes were bright and firm, as if he had absolute confidence in his own strength and behavior.

When the old man saw this, he couldn't help but frown a little more, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes that had seen the vicissitudes of the world.

"Your arrogant and arrogant character is indeed quite similar to those two people. They are both sharp-edged and unwilling to bow easily." His words not only commented on Ling Xiao's character, but also seemed to recall the past, those who also had the same characteristics.

Strong men with extraordinary talents but flamboyant actions.

After saying this, the old man's eyes suddenly turned to Pang Jun's body beside him. The once vivid life was lying there quietly at the moment, silently telling the story of the tragedy just now.

His complexion gradually turned cold, as if the air around him had solidified.

"Young people, if you do things too harshly, you will often lay the foundation for your own disaster. In this world where the strong are respected, keeping a low profile and being patient at the right time is the long-term solution." The old man's voice was low and powerful, and every word was full of meaning.

It hit Ling Xiao's heart like a heavy hammer.

When Ling Xiao heard this, the smile on his face did not fade, but his eyes became deeper.

He shook his head slightly, with a hint of helplessness and persistence in his tone: "As a lesson from heaven and earth, I, Ling Xiao, came to Bada Trading Company this time to buy what I needed, and I have no intention of being hostile to your bank.

Intention. However, things are unpredictable, and this shopkeeper has murderous intentions towards me. If I don't fight back, won't I have to sit back and wait for death?"

At this point, Ling Xiao's tone became firmer: "I killed him not out of personal grudges, but to protect myself. In this world of strong men, fairness often needs to be defended with strength. He chose to show me

The moment he took action, his fate was already determined."

There was a bit of bitterness and determination in his smile, which was a deep understanding of the cruel laws of this world.

After hearing this, the old man was silent for a moment, as if he was weighing something.

Finally, he glanced at Ling Xiao coldly, with unquestionable majesty in his voice: "Even so, you can't deny that you killed someone, and the person you killed was my shopkeeper of Bada Trading Company. If this matter spreads,

, it will cause great damage to the reputation of our firm."

"Everyone has been killed, what are you going to do?" Ling Xiao said with a smile.

The old man stared at Ye Xuan, his eyes that had gone through many vicissitudes of life seemed to contain thousands of years of wind and frost. He was silent for a while, and the air seemed to solidify at this moment.

Finally, he slowly raised his arms, and his broad sleeves swayed gently with the movement. He took a deep breath, and his chest rose and fell, as if he was condensing all his determination and unyielding.

Then, he spoke in a deep voice, and every word hit the hearts of everyone present like a heavy hammer: "We, Bada Trading Company, have been standing on the shores of the East China Sea for nearly a thousand years and have witnessed countless ups and downs.

In these long years, we have encountered various challenges. Whether it was stormy waves or undercurrents, we have never retreated even half a step. Those arrogant and arrogant people who claim to be the proud sons of heaven will eventually become

The dust in the long river of history has dissipated in our hands."

Speaking of this, the old man's voice was low but full of power, and his eyes shone with an unyielding light, which was a deep obsession with the glory of the family and the inheritance of the business.

When Ling Xiao heard this, an indifferent smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. The smile contained recognition of the old man's persistence, but also seemed to have a hint of helplessness.

"Oh? Listening to Senior's words, it seems that today's matter must be fought." Although his voice was soft, it spread clearly throughout the surroundings, carrying a calmness and confidence that could not be ignored.

He shook his head slightly, turned his eyes to the woman beside the old man who tried to dissuade him but failed, and continued: "Although the senior is a veteran of the battlefield and has rich experience, in some aspects, he may not be as good as this one."
