Upon hearing this, the Nangong patriarch ground his teeth until they creaked. He had nearly shouted, "Then let's fight!"
Only after he had provoked him enough did Ji Busheng speak leisurely. "Feng Mountain Lord of Pacify Arms Mountain is someone I intend to recruit to Heavenheart Platform. Your Nangong Family disciples have repeatedly made trouble for him. You've got some nerve!"
"Pacify Arms Mountain?" The Nangong patriarch froze. The place name did sound vaguely familiar. "Is that the fellow who supplies Mortal Communications?"
"See?" Ji Busheng raised a hand and pointed at him, a cold smile curling his lips. "Even you know who he is. That just proves your Nangong Family has never taken me, Ji, seriously. Am I wrong?"
The Nangong patriarch felt utterly wronged and could not even spare the energy to stay angry. "I only heard that he was on good terms with the Huangfu Clan, and that his goods were rather interesting. How was I supposed to know he was connected to you?"
"Go on, make it up," Ji Busheng sneered. "Everyone in the Mortal World knows he has my Talent-Recruiting Token. Your family doesn't know?"
The Nangong patriarch was deeply unconvinced. It was only a Talent-Recruiting Token, not a token for a retainer or worshiped expert. Did he really have to know about it? Even if he did, it was hardly that important. Feng Jun had not even joined Heavenly Heart yet.
The next moment, he did recall something. At some point, he seemed to have heard someone mention that the fellow possessed a Heavenheart Platform Talent-Recruiting Token.
So he merely smiled without explaining. "Even so, couldn't you have just sent someone to notify us? It's such a minor matter. Did you really have to come to my door and embarrass me?"
Ji Busheng snorted.
