Jiang Chen slowly walked toward Kang Shou.
But Kang Shou just sneered.
"Kid, are you trying to start a fight in our Treasure Elephant Pavilion?"
"Fine. I’ll throw you out myself today."
As he spoke, Kang Shou prepared to make his move.
But the next moment, Kang Shou instantly lost his nerve.
Jiang Chen’s body trembled, and a powerful aura erupted from him.
That aura was of the Sixth Level of Martial Master.
And Kang Shou was at the Martial Master Fifth Heaven.
Now, seeing that Jiang Chen—an expert at the Sixth Level of Martial Master—had actually been hiding his cultivation, he hastily took a frightened step back.
At the same time, he said sharply, "Kid, are... are you trying to start something?"
"Let me tell you, if you dare to make a move in the Treasure Elephant Pavilion, you’re dead."
He was getting scared. He was the type to bully the weak and fear the strong.
When faced with someone whose cultivation was higher than his, Kang Shou naturally wouldn’t dare to act. If their cultivation had been lower, he would have thrown them out long ago.
Jiang Chen, however, continued to walk straight toward Kang Shou.
"You said I have no money?"
Kang Shou was still incredibly confident, believing Jiang Chen wouldn’t dare to do anything to him.
He nodded. "That’s right. You have no money. You’re just a pauper."
"Was I wrong?"
Jiang Chen let out a cold laugh, his eyes exceptionally icy.
With a flash of light on his hand, a Spatial Ring appeared on his finger.
Jiang Chen didn’t normally wear the Spatial Ring, but he brought it out now.
Just then, the commotion here caught the attention of the Treasure Elephant Pavilion’s management.
A reasonably attractive woman hurried over.
She frowned and asked, "What’s going on, Kang Shou?"
When Kang Shou saw the woman, his heart skipped a beat. This woman was their leader, specifically in charge of managing personnel like him. She was, to put it mildly, extremely powerful—an expert with Martial King Cultivation.
He immediately pointed at Jiang Chen and shouted, "Boss, this kid has no money but wants to buy a manor in the Gambling City! I said a couple of things to him, and he tried to start a fight!"
The woman’s name was Yan Yun.
A cold light flashed in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Chen.
"Sir, aren’t you taking things a bit too far?"
"Make no mistake, this is the Treasure Elephant Pavilion. If you’re looking for trouble, we won’t be so courteous."
She was convinced that it was the reckless Jiang Chen and his companions who were causing the disturbance.
Jiang Chen glanced at Yan Yun and suddenly laughed.
"A classic case of shifting the blame."
JinLing couldn’t stand it anymore.
She immediately ran out and rebuked them, "Does your Treasure Elephant Pavilion think you can bully customers just because you’re a big name?"
"A moment ago, it was clearly this guy looking down his nose at us and insulting us! How is it our fault now?"
"Your Treasure Elephant Pavilion is nothing special after all. You can’t even tell right from wrong."
The moment JinLing spoke, Yan Yun was a little surprised.
In truth, she still hadn’t figured out the situation.
Jiang Chen, however, ignored Yan Yun and turned his gaze back to Kang Shou.
"I can let it slide that you said I have no money."
"But you insulted us. I won’t let this matter rest."
"As for whether I have money or not, open your dog eyes and take a good look."
Jiang Chen tossed the Spatial Ring directly to Kang Shou.
"See for yourself."
Kang Shou wanted to argue, but his curiosity got the better of him and he opened Jiang Chen’s Spatial Ring.
He took a look, and what he saw stunned him.
"Th-this..."
He was dumbfounded.
Inside Jiang Chen’s Spatial Ring were countless spirit crystals, densely packed and innumerable.
A rough estimate put the number at no less than two hundred million.
His hands trembled in shock.
A glint appeared in Yan Yun’s phoenix-like eyes; she felt something was off.
She took the Spatial Ring and looked inside.
Her expression changed drastically.
She took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Chen.
"Sir, it seems we’ve had a misunderstanding."
She quickly handed the Spatial Ring back to Jiang Chen.
’This is definitely a man of great wealth.’
’A person like this couldn’t possibly be unable to afford things from the Treasure Elephant Pavilion.’
’So there must be a problem.’
Jiang Chen snorted.
"I thought everyone at the Treasure Elephant Pavilion had some class. I didn’t expect to find a rotten apple like this."
"You insulted us. Now, apologize to us immediately."
Jiang Chen had originally planned to get physical, but on second thought, he decided against it to avoid trouble.
He was a reasonable person, after all.
Kang Shou’s face was pale. It was obvious he had completely misjudged the situation.
But being asked to apologize put him in a difficult spot.
Yan Yun also turned to Kang Shou, her eyes cold.
"Kang Shou, what exactly happened? Tell me the truth."
Yan Yun stared at Kang Shou with extreme severity.
The pressure of her superior aura bore down on him.
Kang Shou was silent for a moment.
But he still stepped forward.
He said to Jiang Chen, "Sir, I was wrong earlier."
He looked reluctant, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
He had apologized, but he was furious inside.
After speaking, he turned to leave.
"Hm?"
"Leaving already? Have you asked for my forgiveness?"
Seeing the utter lack of sincerity in his apology, Jiang Chen’s expression darkened.
’How could I let someone like this off so easily?’
Kang Shou’s steps faltered, and he turned around, somewhat angry.
"What more do you want? I’ve already apologized."
Jiang Chen said flatly, "I don’t want much. First, you get me to forgive your rude behavior. When I tell you to leave, then you can leave."
It wasn’t that he was being aggressive, but the other man’s attitude had been so appalling that he had no intention of tolerating it.
If his attitude had been better, Jiang Chen might have already forgiven him.
But Kang Shou was grinding his teeth in fury.
"This is the Treasure Elephant Pavilion! Don’t go too far!"
Finally, Kang Shou couldn’t hold back any longer.
He immediately began to push back.
Jiang Chen shook his head.
He slowly walked toward Kang Shou.
Meanwhile, Yan Yun’s expression changed slightly.
’That damned Kang Shou,’ she cursed internally. ’Couldn’t he just apologize properly? He’s practically asking to die.’
However, seeing Jiang Chen’s posture, it looked like he was actually going to make a move.
She hastily blocked his path.
"Sir, our man has already apologized. Can’t you be lenient?"
No matter what, this was the Treasure Elephant Pavilion, and Yan Yun had to side with her own people.
At the same time, her gaze grew sharp.
Even if Jiang Chen really was a man of great wealth, the Treasure Elephant Pavilion’s rules did not permit fighting on the premises.
"I don’t like this kind of attitude."
"How can you expect to move me without any sincerity?"
Jiang Chen spoke bluntly. He truly couldn’t stand the man’s attitude during the apology.
He was not happy.
Even if this was the Treasure Elephant Pavilion.
Blocked by Yan Yun, Jiang Chen simply said flatly, "Wolf King, come out!"
WHOOSH!
With a flash of purple light, a Purple-Haired Demon Wolf the size of a water buffalo appeared in the Treasure Elephant Pavilion, its entire body exuding a savage aura.
Its eyes were exceptionally brutal, and its blood-red gaze instantly locked onto Yan Yun.
"A Purple-Haired Demon Wolf... at Martial King First Heaven."
At that moment, although Yan Yun also had a Martial King Cultivation, she had not yet reached the First Heaven.
The moment she saw the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf, she cried out in alarm.
She even retreated explosively.
The Purple-Haired Demon Wolf, however, rapidly closed in on Yan Yun.
Jiang Chen paid them no mind and once again walked toward Kang Shou.
GULP...
Kang Shou couldn’t help but swallow hard.
He never imagined that Jiang Chen would have a Demon Beast at the Martial King First Heaven accompanying him.
A chill ran up his spine.
