Chapter 177 - 177 The balance in the Silver sword city

This middle-aged man was no one else than Zhang Dingxiang.

Since Yin Cuifen had \'asked\' the \'Pale Moon guild\' to have a look at their pills before they were auctioned, even Xie Rong couldn\'t decline his request, let alone the Elder himself.

After all, this was the young master of the strongest power in the SIlver sword city, the Silver sword clan.

The \'Pale Moon guild\' couldn\'t choose to offend the Silver sword clan for something so minor.

As for the 4th young master of the Gu family, since Zhang Dingxiang didn\'t know him, he eventually chose not to greet him.

Gu Changpu didn\'t pay any attention to Zhang Dingxiang anyway, since his eyes were glued to the pill bottle in his hands.

Without even asking for permission, he opened the bottle and took one of the top-grade rank 3 \'Blood combustion pills\' in his hand.

Just like how Zhang Dingxiang had reacted the first time, under the astonished gazes of Yin Cuifen and his sister, Gu Changpu started sniffing the pill in front of them.

Of course, everyone inside the room knew, that this was how an alchemist would try to identify some of the medicinal ingredients that a pill was made of, as the overpowering scent of some powerful medicinal herbs could still be discerned even after the successful refinement of the pills.

A few minutes later, Gu Changpu raised his head, and stared at the chubby, bald Elder of the \'Pale Moon guild\', before he asked in shock

\'\'Pig! Who is the alchemist who created this?\'\'

Zhang Dingxiang\'s eyes widened like saucers when he heard these insulting words that held no regard for his identity, while his face had started to turn red, unknown if it was due to embarrassment or anger.

He wanted to walk up to Gu Changpu, and slap him in the face, but considering that this brat had come with the young master and young lady of the Silver sword clan, Zhang Dingxiang took a deep breath to calm himself down, before he said in a sarcastic tone

\'\'I have no idea..\'\'

Gu Changpu\'s expression warped, when he saw that, this fat Elder was refusing to answer his question. As the fourth young master of the Gu family, Gu Changpu felt that he had already lowered his status by speaking to him directly.

Zhang Dingxiang smirked after seeing that Gu Changpu had finally gotten angry, before he turned to look at Yin Cuifen with a flattering smile on his face, as he then cupped his hands and said

\'\'Young master Yin. I am certain that you are also aware that I cannot reveal such information. This is a rule that every guild must adhere to, otherwise it could hurt our own reputation. Of course, if you really force me, using the power of the Silver sword clan, then I will have no other choice but to tell you everything...\'\'

Yin Cuifen nodded his head without any expression on his face, as he waved his hand dismissingly and said

\'\'You can leave.\'\'

Under the dumbfounded expression of Gu Changpu, Zhang Dingxiang smiled as he retrieved the 2 pill bottles and put them in his robes, before he cupped his hands at the 2 Yin siblings and left without another word.

The moment that the middle-aged Elder left the room, Gu Changpu stared mockingly at Yin Cuifen, as he said

\'\'Yin Cuifen, I didn\'t think that you are actually a coward.

Are you sure that your Silver sword clan is the ruler of the Silver sword city, and not the pig that just left? Otherwise, why would you have to give face to such a small guild?

If we were at my place, anyone who dared to refuse a request of my Gu family would have already died countless times, no matter which guild they belonged to.\'\'

Yin Ruolan\'s expression turned into one of disgust, but Gu Changpu didn\'t notice it, as he was still staring at the nonchalant Yin Cuifen.

The young master of the Silver sword clan didn\'t seem to have gotten offended, as he replied with a profound look in his eyes

\'\'Gu Changpu, do you think that every place is like your Thousand Venoms valley?

There is more than just one power in my Silver sword city, including the Mercenaries Association. Do you think that your Gu family would have been able to be so arrogant, if there was also a branch of the Mercenaries Association inside your \'Thousand Venoms city\'?\'\'

Gu Changpu\'s expression changed when he heard this.

Although he was arrogant, he wasn\'t totally stupid. He simply hadn\'t left the \'Thousand Venoms city\' enough times in the past, so he didn\'t understand how the outside world worked.

But from Yin Cuifen\'s words, he understood the hidden implications inside them. It seemed that in the Silver sword city, the Mercenaries Association was keeping their Silver sword clan in check. Even if the Silver sword clan was actually stronger than the association branch, it probably wouldn\'t be by much.

At the same time, Shun Long and Liu Mei had already arrived outside the entrance of the \'Pale Moon guild\'.

After showing the token that he had previously received from Zhang Dingxiang to one of the young girls in the entrance, Shun Long and Liu Mei were immediately led to a private room on the second floor of the auction venue, that Xie Rong had personally reserved for them.

The private room was almost identical with the one that Shun Long had entered, the first time that he and Liu Mei had met with Zhang Dingxiang.

There was a large couch that was facing the main stage of the auction hall, while a small table made of black marble was placed on each side of the couch.

A few minutes after Shun Long and Liu Mei had entered their private room, the lighting of the auction hall was suddenly focused on the main stage.

Under the scrutinizing gaze of the crowd, a young man seemingly in his early 30s slowly walked on the main stage.

The man had a round face and a slightly fat nose, as well as a small mole under his left eye. His red robes fluttered as he walked towards the main stage, before he revealed his cultivation that immediately silenced the buzzing crowd on the outer seats.

Even Shun Long was slightly stunned, when he saw that this man had already reached the middle of rank 9 in the Spirit realm.

His cultivation was even higher than Zhang Dingxiang\'s.

The man looked at the crowd in front of him with an amiable smile on his face, as he introduced himself

\'\'Honorable guests of our \'Pale Moon merchant guild\', welcome to our guild\'s auction.

My name is Yuan Ling, and I will be your auctioneer for today.

Today\'s auction will be a bit special, as there will only be 10 batches of items.

Of course, the quality of each and every one of them is guaranteed by our \'Pale Moon guild\'.

Now, without further ado...

Let the auction begin!\'\'
