Chapter 2082 Confrontation

Silence rang out after Shi Lingfengs words. Everyone looked at Nangong Zuiyue.

This Shi Lingfeng was just like the legends said. He was vicious and domineering, not giving face to anyone. He was actually directly provoking Nangong Zuiyue.

The formation around Long Chens group was a simple one that prevented outsiders from hearing them. But they could hear what was said outside.

This Shi Lingfeng is courting death. Beitang Rushuangs expression was chilly.

Although she and Nangong Zuiyue were enemies, Shi Lingfeng was provoking not just Nangong Zuiyue, but also the everlasting families.

On the other hand, Nangong Zuiyue merely smiled lightly, tasting her tea as if she hadnt heard his provocation.

Seeing no reaction from Nangong Zuiyue, Shi Lingfeng smiled mockingly. He then turned to Long Chen.

Little fellow, youre Long Chen? demanded Shi Lingfeng.

Long Chen frowned and asked Beitang Rushuang, What is wrong with this fellow? Is he an idiot? I didnt even do anything, but it seems he wants to find trouble for me.

Perhaps its because your face is blacker than his. Maybe evil people are drawn together by fate? Beitang Rushuang couldnt help finding it funny.

Brat, Im talking to you. Are you deaf? demanded Shi Lingfeng.

Are you an idiot? Who said I had to answer you? Are you my son? sneered Long Chen. However, as soon as he said this, he regretted it. Shi Lingfengs face was so ugly, wasnt he cursing himself like this? Ah, I misspoke just now. What I meant is, are you an idiot? Fairy Zuiyue cant even be bothered to look at you. Are you taking that disdain for fear?

Nangong Zuiyue couldnt help shaking her head. Long Chen really had no patience. Beitang Rushuang smiled though.

Youre courting death! Shi Lingfeng suddenly roared, and killing intent enveloped Long Chen.

Brother Shi, please stop! Dongfang Yuyang appeared in the room like a spring breeze, a displeased expression on his face. Brother Shi, why bother?

This place was the Dongfang family. Shi Lingfeng was too big for his britches.

Long Chen insulted me, so I want to kill him. Even with Dongfang Yuyang present, Shi Lingfengs killing intent didnt dissipate.

Brother Shi, this place is the Dongfang family, not your Stone race. I hope you can be clear on that. This gathering is being hosted by my Dongfang family, and its for everyone to help each other and develop. The Dongfang family is doing this for the Martial Heaven Continent, but we are not pushovers. If someone takes advantage of our kindness, then dont blame us for kicking you out. Although Dongfang Yuyang was rather tactful, there was anger in his eyes.

The way Shi Lingfeng had treated one of their attendants was already pushing things. They had made a concession by not punishing him for it. However, Shi Lingfeng continued pushing things, and there was no way they could accept it.

Dongfang Yuyangs tone was firm and embodied the resolve of his everlasting family. If Shi Lingfeng continued acting like this, he would have to scram.

Shi Lingfeng nodded. Then Ill give you face and not quibble with him here. Pointing at Long Chen, he said, Brat, just wait. Once were out of the Dongfang family, Ill smash you to bits.

Long Chen didnt reply to Shi Lingfengs provocation directly. He looked Shi Lingfeng up and down and then whispered into Beitang Rushuangs ear, Are those crystal things on his scabs worth some money?

Having Long Chen in such close contact made Beitang Rushuang turn red, but then she jumped at his words. He was actually placing his sights on Shi Lingfeng? You idiot, with the formation back up, why are you getting so close?!

Oh, sorry, it was a habit. Can you answer my question? Long Chen hadnt realized that. But after doing bad things, he didnt like to discuss them.

This fellow belongs to the Stone race, a strange lifeform. Their origins are unclear, but they were born by the earth. What can be said for sure though is that every part of their bodies is an absolute treasure. Their flesh is tough like stone. Blade and saber cannot pierce it, water and fire cannot damage it. They essentially have no weaknesses. On the ground, they can absorb the earths energy. In the sky, they can absorb the energy of the stars. As for those so-called scabs of his, they are natural crystals, with each one being its own world. It is said that each crystal contains the Dao, and through them, it is possible to see the mysteries of the world, said Beitang Rushuang.

In other words, hes worth a lot of money? Good, good, Ill be doing some big business soon then. Long Chens eyes lit up like a hungry wolf that had seen meat.

You cant be serious! Beitang Rushuang felt a chill from that look.

Im always serious when it comes to making money. Im so poor right now. If I dont make some money, Ill starve. But dont worry, Ill make sure to pay your portion, and of course fairy Zuiyues portion too. I wont pocket all the profit myself, promised Long Chen.

No, I dont need a portion. Beitang Rushuang shook her hand. What kind of joke was that? If it was known that a genius of her grand everlasting family was conducting such business with Long Chen, the Beitang family would become the laughingstocks of the continent.

Furthermore, the closer she got to Long Chen, the more she felt that he wouldnt lie about something like that. He really would do it. She definitely didnt want to be implicated.

However, Nangong Zuiyue merely smiled without saying anything, not expressing any of her thoughts toward his plan.

Long Chen couldnt help finding it funny. Beitang Rushuang definitely wasnt a match for Nangong Zuiyue intellectually. She couldnt even tell when he was joking. Would he really drag others down with him?

After the waves caused by Shi Lingfeng, things returned to calm. Experts walked in one by one. When they looked around, they nodded to the people they knew before quietly finding their own seats.

With Long Chen sitting in the back, he saw everyone as they walked in. Beitang Rushuang and Nangong Zuiyue introduced them to him. These people were all heroes of their generation. In fact, even Long Chen had heard some legends about them.

The majority of them were very cold, merely looking around indifferently before sitting down.

Do all experts have to act like theyre supreme and indifferent to everyone else? asked Long Chen.

Nangong Zuiyue said, Actually, thats not the case. Its just that being unrivaled is very lonely. After reaching the peak, you cant find another target. That loneliness shaped their characters. No one else was able to stand alongside them, and no one was capable of even following them. They didnt have a single qualified opponent. That is its own kind of pain.

But youre not like that, right? You dont have that narcissistic loner feeling, said Long Chen.

Me? What I pursue is different from them. Ive always been looking, but Ive never found what Im searching for. Im still working hard at it, but they have already reached the peak. And what about yourself? Your character isnt like theirs either, said Nangong Zuiyue, laughing when she mentioned Long Chens character. She had never imagined that such an expert existed in this world.

Me? You all dominated your era, and no one was able to fight back in the end. But Im not able to dominate any era. At any time, I might be surrounded and beaten like a wild dog. Just look at me now. Its only been a few days, but all kinds of trouble are plaguing me, sighed Long Chen.

On his way, he had run into those idiots of the Mechanism Sect. He had been schemed against, almost losing his life.

He had already made himself a powerful enemy even before arriving at the Dongfang family. His fortune took a rare turn for the better, allowing him to obtain the Moon and Star Refining Furnace along with the Nine Lotus Soul Condensing Pill. But then, that good fortune resulted in another powerful enemy wanting to buy it from him.

Huang Feiyan had used the Cloud Chasing Heaven Swallowing Sparrow race to threaten him. Did she think he would submit? So a second enemy had been made.

Then this stone idiot had come out of nowhere as well, directly targeting him. Long Chen asked himself just what he had done to get surrounded by enemies. Even before he killed the last batch, new ones already came.

Everyone, the time has arrived. The second days auction is about to start! At this moment, a white-robed, middle-aged man walked in.
