Chapter 548 Backdoor
Inside room number one, Du Huanfeng smiled and said. “Thank you, Young Master Pei. Shall we have a drink after this?”
“I’m afraid Young Master Du has to wait for a while.” Pei Xiewen replied. π«β―πππΈπβ―ποΌπ¬πΈπ
Du Huanfeng naturally understood this. He laughed and said. “I’ll wait for Young Master Pei, then.”
Pei Xiewen didn’t say anything further and turned to look at Yun Lintian’s room. His eyes flashed with murderous intent as he said to a tall man standing beside him. “Take him.”
“Yes.” The tall man said solemnly and left the room.
A strange light flashed across Bi You’s eyes as she glanced at Yun Lintian’s room. For some reason, her intuition told her this person was not ordinary as he appeared to be. However, she didn’t intend to tell Pei Xiewen about this.
As someone who read a ton of novels before, Yun Lintian understood this “auction house plot” well. He was bound to be hunted by those greedy bastards after leaving the Mystic Pavilion. Especially the one in room number three, as he had offended this person badly.
Yun Lintian opened the door and walked out calmly. The moment he stepped out of the room, he immediately sensed someone staring at him. When he looked over, he saw a tall man clad in a black robe locking his gaze brimming with killing intent on him. Judging from his aura, this person was at the peak of Monarch Profound Realm.
Yun Lintian laughed faintly and walked toward the tall man fearlessly. “Should I feel honored to be targeted by the peak monarch?”
The tall man released his aura, and immense pressure immediately bore down on Yun Lintian.
Yun Lintian’s movement became rigid for a short period before getting rid of the pressure by simply shielding himself with profound energy.
The tall man’s eyes narrowed slightly. He suddenly discovered the middle-aged man in front of him wasn’t an Earth Profound practitioner but a Heaven Profound Practitioner. To be able to deceive a monarch like him, his concealment ability wasn’t simple at all. He was afraid the opponent’s appearance was also the result of his concealment.
“You shouldn’t provoke my master.” The tall man said coldly.
“Provoke your master? Are you serious?” Yun Lintian had a new understanding. So this person was someone’s lackey? Looked like he had encountered another powerful figure.
Yun Lintian laughed and said further. “We all know that the highest bidder is the winner. You should tell your master to add more money instead of coming for me after losing. Do you know what people call this kind of person?β¦ It’s called a loser. Have you ever heard of it?”
The tall man trembled in a fury. How could he let anyone disrespect his master? As he was about to make a move, a female voice suddenly resounded from the end of the hallway.
“Please restrain yourself. Our Mystic Pavilion is not a place for anyone to do anything at will.” Wu Xue said calmly while walking toward Yun Lintian and the tall man. Her face was calm, but her entire body was brimming with an unchallengeable aura.
Yun Lintian wasn’t surprised to see Wu Xue appear here. The Mystic Pavilion was still worthy of its reputation. It would be a joke something happened in their court.
“You’ve come, Miss Wu.” Yun Lintian walked past the tall man without care and greeted Wu Xue with a smile. “This gentleman’s master seems to have a problem with me. He said I have provoked him. I believe Miss Wu can help me explain it to his master, right?”
Wu Xue looked at Yun Lintian with a smile while secretly complaining in her heart. This middle-aged man immediately dragged her into muddy water as soon as he opened his mouth. It was no wonder he dared to offend Pei Xiewen.
“Thank you for your patronage today, Misterβ¦.” Wu Xue said.
“My surname is Wu.” Yun Lintian responded. He let out a laugh and continued. “Miss Wu, you have to help me. After all, we have the same surname. We can be considered as family.”
Even someone with numerous experiences like Wu Xue had become startled for a second upon hearing Yun Lintian’s shameless remark. When did she become his family?
Wu Xue covered her mouth and laughed gently. “Mister Wu is funny. We indeed have the same surname, but it doesn’t mean we are family.” She paused for a moment and said. “But Mister Wu doesn’t have to worry about this. Our Mystic Pavilion is not allowed anyone to violate our rules during your time here.”
Her words were emphasized that she could protect him, but it was only during his stay here. After he left this place, it wasn’t her concern anymore.
Hearing this, the tall man’s eyes flickered slightly and walked away, heading toward the building entrance. As long as Yun Lintian came out, he would make a move right away.
Yun Lintian watched the tall man leave and turned to Wu Xue. He whispered. “Miss Wu, is there a backdoor here?”
The corner of Wu Xue’s mouth twitched slightly. “Of course, we have a backdoor here. However, it is reserved for our people. I’m afraid I cannot allow you to use it.”
“I can only leave through the front entrance? Come on, Miss Wu. Do I look like an upright person?” Yun Lintian said with a serious expression. Seeing Wu Xue hesitantly shaking her head, he spread his arms out and said. “Right? Since I’m not an upright person, I naturally won’t leave through the front door in an upright manner. You have to let me go through the backdoor. Otherwise, I would have to violate my personality. I don’t think a person with principles like Miss Wu wants me to do that, right?”
Wu Xue felt dizzy upon listening to Yun Lintian’s nonsense. Could this be counted as a reason? Me? Don’t want to make you violate your personality? What the hell are you spouting?
It was not only Wu Xue who was stunned by Yun Lintian’s nonsense but also Hongyue and others. Especially Yun Ruanyu and Yun Qingrou, who had never accompanied Yun Lintian to the outside. This was the first time they had witnessed his nonsense mastery.
“Is he always like this?” Yun Qingrou couldn’t help asking Yun Lingwei.
Yun Lingwei nodded her head while suppressing the urge to laugh.
