Chapter 111 - Chapter 111 - Trouble in the Market

"I, this... Young Master, you are clearly making trouble out of nothing! How can you wrongly accuse me?"

The shopkeeper had a bitter look on his face, and angrily slammed the counter: "I told you what the goods were, what they were for, and even the price was agreed upon! Why are you causing trouble now that we have the goods?"

"Whispering sound--"

Jia Lie swung the necklace around and looked around. The guards behind him deliberately spread out a little to avoid blocking any curious observers.

Seeing that many people were looking at him, Jia Lie stretched out his hand and wrapped the necklace around his hand twice, deliberately trying to make things worse:

"It's not like this kind of stuff isn't sold elsewhere. The price is less than 70% of yours, and the effect is much better than yours... Is this a fake? Huh?"

"Don't spit blood on me!" 

The shop owner was a little anxious and angry, but he didn't dare to take action because of the guards behind Galleo.

"Hehe..."

Jia Lie sneered, holding up the embedded magic core and showing it to everyone: "Look everyone! The high-quality magic core that the store keeps talking about is just a piece of shit dug out from a rabbit! And the so-called gold inlay, isn't it just copper?"

"You! You you!" The shop owner was so angry that his eyes turned red. When did he ever boast about using high-quality ingredients?

"I what me?"

Jia Lie stretched out his hand suddenly, and the necklace dangled gently on his finger: "If what I said is all false, then how did you get such a high price?"

I...

The shopkeeper opened his mouth but dared not utter a word. The other party's palm covered with fighting spirit almost touched the tip of his nose.

Fighter...

It was like being poured over the head with a basin of cold water. The shopkeeper, who was only at the seventh level of fighting spirit, lost his spirit in an instant and was speechless. 

"Humph! Did everyone hear it? Did everyone see it?"

With a triumphant smile, Jia Lie stretched out his hands and showed them for a while: "This store, this neighborhood! They sell fake goods!" 

The crowd that had gathered in circles suddenly became agitated. Some were very angry and wanted to speak out, some joined Jia Lie in shouting, and some just wanted to watch the fun, fearing that the noise would get smaller.

Hi~ You are indeed a bunch of idiots~

Seeing so many people being fooled by his few words, Jia Lie laughed and held his forehead with his hand, looking intoxicated with his own amazing wisdom.

This young master is indeed a genius... 

"Jia Lie!"

The person who was named was suddenly shocked, and a look of emptiness and helplessness instantly appeared on his face.

The guards around him hurriedly came closer and wrapped him up.

Hulala——

The crowd parted in an instant, leaving a wide passage for the newcomers.

Brush la la——

At the other end of the passage, a young man with a handsome face but strong aura towards him. It was like a dark cloud passing by, and an indescribable heaviness and oppression followed.

Each step was dull and steady, treading on everyone's heartbeats. In just a few breaths, the whole place was silent. 

At first glance, everyone knew that it was a person who could handle things who would appear as the finale.

"Whoosh…bang!" 

A giant heavy sword was summoned and fell to the ground with a hum.

The huge noise made Jia Lie's heart skip a beat, and the cracks on the stone slab made his eyes twitch.

With a swish sound, the giant sword plowed an arc groove on the ground and then lifted up, and the dust airflow it brought up left a trail in the air. 

"Jia Lie——" 

The sword spun his fingers, breaking up all the dust and smoke: "You are so brave!"

The guards surrounding Jia Lie hastily raised their weapons, but his legs and feet went limp, and then his body straightened up like a spring. 

"If I throw one foot, even the fighters can be knocked away."

Unfortunately, he, Jia Lie, is that background NPC. 

Even more unfortunate is that I ran into Xiao Feng. 

He clearly wasn't in the Wutan city before. So how come he suddenly appears when he gets into trouble?

There might be a traitor in the family.

"Uh..."

Jia Lie took a look at the situation from between the people and felt that he was in the right in the argument.

He immediately adjusted his mindset, straightened his clothes, pushed aside the guards and stood in front of Xiao Feng. 

"Master Xiao Feng." 

Jia Lie saluted like a gentleman for once, and stretched out his hand to show the necklace: "I'm not trying to embarrass him, nor am I deliberately looking for trouble, it's really because of this thing that he..."

Xiao Feng raised the Kurogiri and approached with an expressionless face.

Jia Lie couldn't chew his tongue any further and took a few steps back. "What...what do you want to do?"

The sword was raised a few points higher.

"Hey, hey! You are using your power to bully others! You... you are bullying customers because of your size!" Jia Lie retreated in panic, and stumbled to the ground after only a few steps. He continued to retreat while pointing at Xiao Feng.

"You! You, you…"

As the sword gradually rose, Jia Lie could not go down.

The feeling of despair like a mountain pressed down on his head.

"You can't—"

"Bang!"

The sword was swung fiercely, and the strong wind pressure pressed down with the panicked screams like a slaughtered pig, and almost hit the ground with the tip of Jia Lie's nose.

Strong winds blew all around, and streaks of wind washed between Jia Lie's legs.

Smoke and dust are everywhere. 

"Ha ha..."

Jia Lie uttered two dry laughs as if he had survived a disaster, then collapsed to the ground with his pupils trembling. 

I will die...I will really die... 

"What did this young master want to say?" Xiao Feng leaned over and asked. 

"…" 

What else could he say? No matter how much trouble he caused, he couldn't gamble with his own head!

Jia Lie glanced back.

As expected, his guards were pinned down without any resistance.

Why the hell are there so many mercenaries in Xiao family Market.

There are more fighting masters than fighters he brought.

Why didn't they show this power before?

"Come, let me see."

Xiao Feng took the necklace from his open hand: "Hmm~ A first-level magic core. Although the quality is not very good, the fighting spirit is real...Shopkeeper?"

"Yes! Young Master."

"How much does this necklace cost in your store?"

"Not more, not less~ exactly one thousand. Take a look!" The shopkeeper brought out the price tag, showed it to Xiao Feng, and then showed it to the people around.

"Then is there anyone in Wutan City who knows this business? How much does a necklace of this quality usually sell for?" 

"I understand, I understand!"

A hand was raised high in the crowd. After pushing through the crowd, the man took the necklace and looked at it for a few seconds: "If I were selling it, this necklace would be around 900 yuan. It's normal for it to be slightly higher in the store."

"Okay, thank you very much." 

Xiao Feng responded with a smile, then turned to face the audience and spoke loudly: "The Xiao Family Market has always been known for its fair prices. I believe that people who have traded here for a long time have felt this." 

"Of course, we are not the kind of bullies who use our power to oppress others. If you are cheated or treated unfairly, my Xiao family will stand up for you!"
