“Please leave, all four of you.”
After saying this, the Sixth Steward’s eyes flashed with mockery as he turned to leave.
Mark Gu’s expression changed slightly, and he reached out to speak, but Old Turtle slapped his hand down and said calmly, “Stop.”
The Sixth Steward’s body froze, and he turned back with a smile, “Is there something else?”
Old Turtle, expressionless, said, “You just said the teleportation array is broken, correct?”
The Sixth Steward’s eyes flickered, and he replied, “That’s right.”
Old Turtle patiently asked, “What if the teleportation array isn’t broken?”
“If I say it’s broken, then it’s broken. Do you think I’d deceive you all?” The Sixth Steward’s face showed impatience.
Suddenly, Old Turtle raised his hand!
The Sixth Steward’s face changed, and his body flew towards Old Turtle, who grabbed him tightly by the neck!
“What… what are you trying to do?” The Sixth Steward’s face turned red as he struggled to speak, panic rising in his heart.
This person is indeed a Divine Transformation True Lord. He, a dignified Elemental Infant ancestor, was captured in one move! He had no chance to resist!
Old Turtle stared at him, sneering, “Let me tell you, if the teleportation array is truly broken today, that’s one thing. But if it’s not… then today won’t end well for you.”
“Do you know where you are?” The Sixth Steward’s face turned pale as he shouted, cursing his bad luck for encountering such a tough opponent.
Such arrogance!
Mark Gu’s body tensed, but he could only watch silently, his heart filled with worry!
Of course, he was worried about the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce!
“Ha, Grandpa Turtle doesn’t care where this is.” Old Turtle finished speaking and looked at Ambrose Lu, respectfully asking, “Master, what next?”
“You decide,” Ambrose said softly.
Mark Gu’s eyes flashed, recalling Old Turtle’s actions outside Moyu Town. He quickly took out a chair and placed it behind Ambrose.
Ambrose sat down slowly, without looking away.
Chu Xiruo pursed her lips at the sight. Goodness, this Daoist Friend Lu was really here to watch the show…
The commotion quickly attracted a lot of attention.
Many people turned their gazes over, and when they saw a steward of the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce being choked, their eyes widened in shock!
Heavens, someone actually dared to cause trouble at the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce.
Soon, cultivators from the first floor of the chamber began to gather…
“Who are you people, daring to act recklessly in our Tianyun Chamber of Commerce? Release the Sixth Steward immediately!”
More than a dozen uniformed receptionists arrived, shouting sternly!
“You have five breaths to call your president out, or he dies,” Old Turtle said mockingly.
At these words, not only were the receptionists stunned, but even the onlookers’ eyelids twitched heavily.
Many cultivators recognized Old Turtle’s voice and, after a moment of thought, their hearts began to pound.
This was the Divine Transformation True Lord who had undergone tribulation crossing a couple of days ago…
“Hurry up and call the president! What are you standing around for?!” The Sixth Steward yelled urgently, his expression desperate.
“Two breaths left,” Old Turtle said calmly.
Everyone was shocked, and the Sixth Steward’s face turned ashen with regret!
At this moment, a short, stout middle-aged man appeared, smiling insincerely, “Daoist Friend, I am Zhu Qiang, the president of the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce. Please release our steward. Is there some misunderstanding? Perhaps we can sit down and discuss it?”
The president of the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce, Zhu Qiang!
The crowd was excited, their palms sweaty with anticipation. They hadn’t expected to witness such a spectacle at the chamber today.
“President!” The Sixth Steward’s joy was cut short,
Crack!
Old Turtle twisted sharply, breaking his neck and shattering his Elemental Infant within!
Then he tossed the body in front of Zhu Qiang like garbage, with a loud thud!
“You’re too late. Your subordinate died unjustly. He probably didn’t expect that even as he was about to die, his own president would be late. Ha.” Old Turtle sneered.
Ambrose and his two companions watched silently. Chu Xiruo remained calm, but Mark Gu’s face had turned pale.
He knew that with the steward dead, there would be no peaceful resolution today.
The entire space fell into an extreme silence.
One by one, stewards and guards from other floors gathered behind Zhu Qiang, staring blankly at the Sixth Steward’s corpse.
“Old Six…” The Fifth Steward murmured. Just a few days ago, he had gone to the Nameless Tavern with Old Six, and now he was dead.
Zhu Qiang’s face lost its smile, and he asked coldly, “Daoist Friend, can you tell me what happened?”
“What happened? What does it matter? Grandpa Turtle didn’t like him, so I killed him. It’s that simple!” Old Turtle’s face showed mockery. What a joke, killing someone was nothing to him. How could someone of his stature explain to these ants?
Killing was killing, nothing more!!
Everyone’s bodies trembled, staring at Old Turtle in shock. Arrogant, truly arrogant!
At this moment, the Fifth Steward’s face changed, and he whispered something to Zhu Qiang.
Zhu Qiang’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Old Turtle, “A few days ago, someone underwent tribulation crossing at our Tianyun Chamber of Commerce. The Divine Transformation cultivator under the heavenly tribulation was you, wasn’t it?”
“I did send the Fifth and Sixth Stewards to check on the situation, but they didn’t do anything to you, did they? Are you here today for revenge?”
Zhu Qiang’s voice had grown heavy. He thought the other party was here because of the tribulation crossing incident.
He hadn’t acted immediately because he was a thorough businessman!
Provoking a Divine Transformation True Lord over a steward was not worth it to him!
Old Turtle was about to say something when Mark Gu bravely stepped forward.
He knew it was impossible for Old Turtle to explain, so he had to do it. He didn’t want the misunderstanding to escalate, causing unnecessary casualties. That was his nature.
“President Zhu, actually, this happened because your steward said the teleportation array was broken. I just want to ask if it really is broken?”
As soon as Mark Gu finished speaking, Old Turtle slapped him to the ground, saying sternly,
“Why do you talk so much? No need for explanations!”
Mark Gu wiped the blood from his mouth, got up, bowed, and retreated silently.
Old Turtle frowned at the sight, sighing inwardly.
Zhu Qiang’s face changed slightly, realizing there was more to the story!
He was always quick-witted and immediately understood the situation.
The Sixth Steward must have been unhappy about the incident a few days ago, recognized these people, and deliberately made things difficult… leading to this…
Zhu Qiang forced a smile, looking at Old Turtle, then at Chu Xiruo, and finally at the cyan-clothed man sitting there like an immovable mountain, his heart trembling. He took a deep breath and apologized,
“I’m sorry, Daoist Friends. Today’s incident was our steward’s fault. He is dead, and you have vented your anger. Can we let this matter go?”
“President!!!”
Hearing this, the other stewards’ faces changed drastically, feeling utterly disheartened!
