Chapter 18: A Wicked Person Chapter 18: A Wicked Person The voice sounded like a bunch of firecrackers exploding behind Jing Yan and Jing Chenxing.
The two couldn’t help but turn around with their eyebrows furrowed.
“Jing Yuqin?” Jing Chenxing’s mouth tightened slightly into a thin line.
Jing Yuqin was also a mber of the Jing Clan.
She was an administrator at the Ru Yi Pavilion.
It was apparent that Jing Yuqin was in a terrible mood that day.
A few minutes earlier, a major client of hers had been snatched away by another administrator.
She couldn’t do anything about it.
The other administrator didn’t care at all that she was a disciple of the Jing Clan.
Being an administrator at the Ru Yi Pavilion was a lucrative position for Jing Yuqin.
A significant part of her wealth ca from the commission she received from various deals.
Now that she had lost one of her most notable clients, it would undoubtedly reduce her inco.
Of course, she was mad about it.
“I’m asking you who let you co upstairs?
Don’t you know that not everyone is allowed to co to the second floor?” “Do you even have VIP Passes?
Humph, if you don’t have VIP Passes, just get the hell out of here now.” Jing Yuqin glanced at Jing Chenxing and Jing Yan.
Of course, she knew who they were, yet that was also the reason she didn’t care if she offended them.
Jing Yan’s rank had fallen so much that he was no more than a loser.
And Jing Chenxing had faded into oblivion a long ti ago.
Jing Yuqin didn’t take those two seriously at all.
No matter what kind of high status Jing Yan and Jing Chenxing used to enjoy in the Jing Clan, they had been marginalized now.
Jing Yan and Jing Chenxing’s faces darkened.
This Jing Yuqin was too rude.
No matter what, they were all mbers of the Jing Clan, yet Jing Yuqin was humiliating them in such a careless way.
It was too much to take.
“Well, well, who died and made you the Pavilion Owner, Jing Yuqin?” Jing Yan said, his mouth twisting in an angry half-smile.
Now that Jing Yuqin had humiliated his uncle and himself in such a way, there was no way that Jing Yan was going to be nice to her.
“Oh my.” Jing Yuqin dramatically rolled her eyes when she saw Jing Yan’s look.
“Isn’t this Jing Yan?
The No.
1 genius of the Jing Clan?
The No.
1 genius of Dong Lin City?
Oh right, you are also the first grandson of the Patriarch of the Jing Clan!
How fancy and important!
But Jing Yan, you have to realize sothing.
All those fancy titles are in the past.
Now, you are less than nothing!” “Humph!
I suggest you two get the hell out of this place.
If you still don’t appreciate the favor, I will have the guards throw you out,” Jing Yuqin said, her tone dripping with sarcasm and disdain.
Her high-pitched voice and deaning tone soon attracted the attention of a lot of custors who were doing business on the second floor.
They all had high status in Dong Lin City.
Among them, quite a few knew Jing Yan and Jing Chenxing.
Now they saw that soone was giving Jing Yan and his uncle a hard ti, and they all turned to watch the show.
“Jing Yuqin, you’d better not act too out of line.
We are here to sell sources.
No matter what, we are your custors.
As an administrator here, is it your job to kick out your own custors?” Jing Chenxing took a deep breath and lowered his voice as he tried to suppress his fury.
“Selling sources?
What kind of sources could soone like you get a hold of?” Jing Yuqin’s eyes lit up slightly as her lips curled.
She didn’t believe at all that Jing Chenxing could have any sources to sell.
Even if he did, he certainly couldn’t have anything of value.
If Jing Chenxing’s leg had still been whole, he might have been able to get a lot of sources.
But now, Jing Chenxing probably couldn’t even scrape together a few dozen Spiritual Stones.
“Jing Yan has killed quite a few Spiritual Beasts and taken so sources.
We want to sell them at the Ru Yi Pavilion,” Jing Chenxing said in a tone as calm as he could manage.
He didn’t want to put on a show for the bystanders to enjoy.
“What?” Jing Yuqin paused for a second.
“Haha!” Jing Yuqin imdiately burst out laughing as she turned her gaze to Jing Yan.
“Jing Chenxing, you said Jing Yan killed a lot of Spiritual Beasts?” Jing Yuqin acted as if she’d just heard the funniest joke in the world.
An outsider might have only heard so rumors that Jing Yan’s rank had fallen to the Third Heaven, but Jing Yuqin was a mber of the Jing Clan.
For her, the drop in Jing Yan’s rank wasn’t just so gossip she had overheard; it was a well-known fact.
She also knew that two weeks ago, Jing Yan had participated in the Jing Clan’s monthly abilities test.
Many disciples in the family had witnessed that Jing Yan’s cultivation was only at the Third Heaven.
Dropping to the Third Heaven ant that he couldn’t even perform Low-grade martial systems very well.
And he claid to have killed Spiritual Beasts?
As to Jing Chenxing, was sothing wrong with his head?
Had the damage in his leg finally spread to his brain too?
Jing Yan killing Spiritual Beasts?
Yeah, right.
The man was lying through his teeth.
Okay, even if Jing Yan sohow managed to kill so Spiritual Beasts, it was probably the result of working with other Jing Clan disciples at a similar level.
How many beasts could he get as a mber of a low-level hunting team?
He must have scraped together a few sources from so First-grade Spiritual Beasts, and now he had the guts to co to the Ru Yi Pavilion to sell them?
He even took it so seriously that he sneaked up to the second floor to do so?
On the first floor of the Ru Yi Pavilion, there was a buying and selling counter.
Generally, if people had a few sources or Low-grade items, they would simply go there to complete the transaction.
Now Jing Chenxing had sohow brought Jing Yan up to the second floor.
If there wasn’t sothing wrong with the man’s head, then what could explain this ridiculous farce?
“I did kill a lot of Spiritual Beasts.” Jing Yan narrowed his eyes as he stared at Jing Yuqin.
“I ca to the Ru Yi Pavilion to sell the sources because our Jing Clan has shares here.
I am doing this for the family’s sake.
But Jing Yuqin, considering your attitude, maybe I should go to other Business Zones to sell my sources.” “Hahaha…” Jing Yuqin’s laughter got even more dramatic after she heard Jing Yan’s words.
“Go, go, go!
Hurry up and go!
Go wherever you want!
Our Ru Yi Pavilion doesn’t need your pitiful sources.” Jing Yuqin waved her hand rapidly.
“Guards!
Guards!” Jing Yuqin looked around for the guards.
It seed like she wanted to kick Jing Yan and Jing Chenxing out of there by force.
“Jing Yuqin, rember that you will be responsible for your words!
Uncle, let’s get out of here,” Jing Yan said with a grin.
While Jing Yuqin might be willing to brush off Jing Yan’s sources, there was no way that the Ru Yi Pavilion didn’t care about them.
Jing Yan’s sources included what he had obtained from the Shadow Gale Wolf and the Stone-spotted Tiger King.
Those sources were incredibly precious to any business like the Ru Yi Pavilion.
In Dong Lin City, no matter which Business Zone they went to, Jing Yan’s sources would be taken very seriously.
“Let’s go!” Jing Chenxing was also furious.
“Chenxing, what brings you here?” At that mont, soone quickly walked downstairs from the third floor.
Behind him followed the guard who had brought Jing Yan and Jing Chenxing to the second floor a mont ago.
It was Wang He, the Manager of the Ru Yi Pavilion.
He and Jing Chenxing had known each other for years, and they had been pretty close for a long ti.
Wang He had offered Jing Chenxing the opportunity to work at Ru Yi Pavilion as an administrator or so other similar role many tis, but Jing Chenxing had never taken him up on the offer.
As soon as the guard told him that Jing Chenxing was there, Wang He imdiately ca down from the third floor.
It was a sign that he was on good terms with Jing Chenxing.
