Threatening Elder Mo

Elder Mo looked so excited that he was about jump forward and give her a big bear hug.

However, Jiang Ying Yue's instincts were sharp, even before the old man could she was prepared to dodge aside.

Elder Mo lunged forward on this side, while on the other side, Jiang Ying Yue moved on of her foot, preparing for her escape.

The air was tense, and everything seemed to be moving in slow motion.

Tian Shan and the others who were watching from the side could only sigh helplessly. They all silently expressed their great sympathy.

However, unknown to all of them, while they were busy watching the show a shadow had swished past them, making its way to Elder Mo's side.

Before Elder Mo even had the chance to enter within the one-meter radius around Jiang Ying Yue he was sent flying like big, fat ball.

Thump!...

"....."

" Aiyo, aiyooo!... My old bones!" Elder Mo cried out painfully, holding his aching waist after a moment of daze. He looked pretty much like a disabled person after taking this single hit. It looked like he couldn't move at all, so he just lay there and wailed.

Those who had just witnessed this scene snapped out of their stupor and rushed to help Elder Mo out of his predicament.

" Aiyo, what sort of sin did I commit in my life? In my old age, I still have to suffer so much?.... Aiyo, it hurts so much! Am I going to die?!... Grandmaster, it looks like your grand disciple won't be able won't be able to show his filial piety from now on. Grandmaster, wu wu....why don't you accompany this useless grand disciple of yours for a few days, Grand Master, so that even if I were to die...I can rest in peace...wuwu..."

Elder Mo lay there crookedly and kept ranting. He didn't look for help nor did he ask anyone to find the culprit, his entire focus was on Jiang Ying Yue and finding a way to make her stay for a few more days.

Jiang Ying Yue:"....."

Others:"....."

Actor Elder Mo's disciples:"..." ' Master, have some respect! Even if you don't care, at least leave your poor disciples some face!....'

" Master You, I didn't kick him that hard. That old thing is just pretending." Wei Mo, who had disappeared after delivering the kick of justice suddenly appeared again beside Jiang Ying Yue out of thin air and pointed out righteously.

He had been watching for a while. This old thing was just too shameless!

He couldn't just sit still and watch the guy scamming the little girl. Especially, when this little girl seemed to be related to his master in some ways.

Seeing how his master cared about her Wei Mo was already very certain about this fact. There must be something going on, otherwise, how could his cold and detached master take the initiative to approach a girl, let alone protect her?

That was why he had immediately taken action earlier without a second thought. He wouldn't let anyone take advantage of his master's treasure in his presence.

Besides, Wei Mo felt that he had already been lenient enough toward that old man by not killing him with that single kick. What was he grumbling for?!

And as if grumbling wasn't enough he was even trying to scam the person his master cared about?!

This old thing was looking for death!!

Jiang Ying Yue was slightly shocked by the sudden appearance of Wei Mo. The speed at which appeared and disappeared without even making the slightest noise was astounding, and not only that he could even manage to do it without leaving behind any traces. Even, Jiang Ying Yue who had always prided herself on having a set of keenest senses was completely defeated.

She could even manage to detect the guards of Tian Shan and the rest, who were following them from quite a distance. However, when it came to this man it was nothing.

Moreover, from the way he appeared and kicked Elder Mo suddenly it could be confirmed that he had been following them from the beginning.

This realization made Jiang Ying Yue's eyes glow brighter. And her gaze toward Wei Mo seemed to be filled with nothing but utmost kindness.

Wei Mo, who was indignant, suddenly felt cold, faced with Jian Ying Yue's burning gaze. What....did he do something wrong?.... Why did he suddenly have a bad feeling?....

Wei Mo was very confused but couldn't further as Jiang Ying Yue had already retracted her gaze. Her gaze now focused on Elder Mo, who refused to budge and just lay there while throwing tantrum.

" Grand Master, don't listen to this rascal, he is just blabbering nonsense! Grand Master, you know me the best, how dare I pretend in front of you?!" Elder Mo looked hurt and wronged.

Jiang Ying Yue:" No, I don't you know that well, we have only met once." Although they had stayed at his place for three days or so, technically it could be counted as one.

Elder Mo:"....."

Elder Mo:"!!!!!" 'Ugh, my chest hurts for real now!'

Elder Mo took a heavy blow and couldn't speak for a while, his old wrinkled eyes opened round and wide. It was like he was saying,' Grand Master, how could you do it this me?!'

However, this seemed nothing and more was to come...

Jiang Ying Yue:" And you are saying you dare not pretend in front of me?... Then, tell me how can shout so well when you're severely hurt?... Elder Mo, If you don't want your precious patch of vegetables to be gone then you'd better get up."

With that Jiang Ying Yue turned around and entered the auction hall, leaving behind Elder Mo who was dumbfounded by her blatant threat.

Elder Mo's ruddy cheeks turned ghastly white when recalled Jiang Ying Yue's previous

racket of stealing his precious vegetables from his garden until only weeds were left. His old body shivered and he stood up abruptly.

His movements and posture were very nimble as he even had the mind to look around for his walking cane before rushing to the auction hall.

Everyone:"....."

Upon seeing that drama had come to an end everyone dispersed.

" You guys can go and take a seat first, I'll take a look around the registration desk," said Jiang Ying Yue, as soon as they entered the hall.

" Do you intend to put out an item for this auction?" A few of them guessed immediately.

" Yes, that's indeed my intention but I don't know if they'll accept my things and present them for auction on such short notice." Jiang Ying Yue wasn't certain about this. After all, it was normal for auction houses to release catalogs before the auction. So, many of the auction houses would mostly refuse to accept a new item and add it to the auction list in such a short period.

If that was the case here, hmm, maybe it was time to pull some strings.

Her eyes wandered, waiting for the person. Oh, here he is!...

" Grand Master, why are you guys standing here? Let's go, it's about to start," said Elder Mo, his tone faintly sounding eager.

Hmm, was he trying to divert her attention, so that she wouldn't have time to think about his vegetable?....

A subtle smile appeared in Jiang Ying Yur's eyes.

This old man was too cute!

" Elder Mo, Xiao You wants to auction off an item, so is there a way you can help him?" They also understood the rule of auction houses and knew it was a wise choice to look for an insider's help.

Elder Mo was one of the chief protectors of Lan Quan. He had substantial power in his hands, so helping out in such small matters would be nothing to him.

What was an auction house?... He could even make the whole city obey his command with a single gesture of his hand.

Elder Mo looked surprised and curious for a moment as he turned to Jiang Ying Yue, " Oh...Grand Master, you want to auction off something?... Sure, then follow me quickly."

So, the people followed Elder Mo to the registration desk which was located in the side hall.

" Elder Mo!" When the person in charge of the registration desk saw Elder Mo he quickly came out and greeted him.

" Elder Mo, what brings you here?"

" Oh, it's like this. This young master here wants to auction off his goods in today's auction. So, I brought him here to register." Elder pointed toward Jiang Ying Yue and explained before adding, "Is there still an empty slot?"

Their auction house had a fixed number of slots for every auction. And they wouldn't add any random item other than the items reserved for the fixed slots after the list was formed. So, if someone wanted to auction off their goods they had to register two days earlier for a slot, that is before the auction list was formed. These were the rules the auction had followed since the beginning and never changed during these years.

Now, Elder Mo suddenly showed up asking for an empty slot, despite knowing this fact very well, what was he thinking?!

The person in charge looked at the amiably smiling elder and cursed inwardly at his bad luck. Why did he have to take this shift today, he was better off cultivating at home?!...

Although, Elder Mo appeared very friendly and didn't show any trace of a threat. He wasn't that easy to deal with.

The moment he explained his purpose for coming here, he had already stated his stance.

What Elder Mo meant was ' Since I brought this person here he is my person. So, you should hurry up and give me some face, and open up a slot for me even if there's none!'

The others at the side all watched the show with their eyes wide open as Elder Mo performed his divine skill perfectly.

He was impeccable!

While the person in charge couldn't help but grimace inwardly. If he agreed now and opened a back door he would get scolded by his superiors, however, if he refused to do it and angered Elder Mo then he would end up making both parties unhappy.

The person was in a great dilemma. He weighed the pros and crops for a while before finally choosing Elder Mo's side. It was better to offend his superiors, at most he would only lose his job, but if offended Elder Mo then he would have no place in Lan Quan.

The man was quick and hurriedly brought them to register.

Indeed Old ginger is spicier with just a simple sentence he forced the person to open the back door for them and even settled the whole matter nicely not at all appearing like a power-drunk and overbearing person who bullied his people.

" Young Master, take out the item you want to register for appreciation." This was the basic procedure for registration. An item had to go through a thorough appraisal so that the auction house could determine its value and quality before setting an initial bid for the item.

As the man requested Jiang Ying Yue took out an ugly-looking sac from her space ring and chucked it unceremoniously on the top of his table.

The person:"..."

Others:"..."

What was this ugly thing?!....

All of them couldn't help showing doubtful expressions until Jiang Ying Yue loosened the rope around the neck of the sac and revealed the items inside, glowing lime shiny, and pure gems.

" Hiss...Beast cores!" The person sucked in a deep breath in shock.

Whether it was quality or quantity he had never come across as such this in his entire life.

The way he looked at the young man changed instantly at that instant. If the respect he showed before toward the young man was on account of Elder Mo, then now he sincerely held some fair amount of admiration toward him.

To be able to produce so many high grades of beast cores with just a flip of his hand, the youth must be capable.

The man turned very curious about the boy, who was he?
