She Wouldn't Be Able to Hold Out Much Longer!

Elsewhere, after Chen Xuan left Qingyang Town.

He headed straight for Yan City.

After entering the city, he went directly to the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House in the city center.

Outside the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House, the dense crowd flowed like a colony of migrating ants.

Chen Xuan walked toward the auction house.

At the entrance, he was stopped by a Guard, who held out his hand. "Ten Yang Yuan Stones."

Chen Xuan ignored him and simply said in a low voice, "Have Xia Wan Jin come see me immediately!"

"??" The Guard instantly flew into a rage.

Who the hell are you?

You open your mouth and demand that the head of our Commerce Association come see you.

Do you think you're the City Lord?

The others also felt that Chen Xuan was being far too arrogant.

He was plainly courting death.

They all waited to see him get thrown out.

But the next moment.

The expressions on everyone's faces froze.

Squelch!

A longsword pierced through the Guard's chest.

Scarlet blood.

Dripped continuously from the sword tip onto the ground.

Wait!

That sword seemed to be the Guard's own, didn't it?

Everyone was instantly dumbfounded.

No one had seen how this man had drawn the Guard's sword.

Then used it to stab him to death.

That speed was far too fast!

Bang!

As they looked at the Guard lying on the ground.

A commotion immediately broke out at the entrance of the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House.

"This guy dared to kill someone from the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House. Does he not want to survive in Yan City anymore?"

"Seriously, the last person who acted this arrogantly at the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House probably had grass over a meter high on his grave by now!"

"Look, look, Steward Su and Miss Xia are here!"

"Steward Su really has charm!"

"Steward Su and Miss Xia are getting prettier and prettier. They look just like sisters."

"Hehe, if I could pin them down on a bed and have my way with them, I'd be willing to lose ten years off my life!"

As the crowd stirred.

The flow of people automatically parted, opening up a path.

Several figures walked toward Chen Xuan.

Among them was a woman in a red dress.

Her skin was as white as snow, her cheeks were like peach blossoms, and she was as beautiful as a flower.

In comparison.

Her lush curves and elegant bearing gave her an additional mature charm that made people all the more captivated by her.

Beside her stood a tall Green-Clad Woman.

She was also exceptionally beautiful.

However, the two were different types.

At that moment, there was a trace of anger on the Green-Clad Woman's face.

Especially when she looked at Chen Xuan.

The woman in the red qipao glanced at the Guard's corpse on the ground.

Then raised her eyes to Chen Xuan. "Little brother, the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House has never had any grievances with you, has it?"

Since he had dared to kill someone from the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House.

In broad daylight before everyone.

He must have had something to rely on.

Chen Xuan did not waste words and got straight to the point. "When did Lin Dong leave?"

Xuan Su's expression brightened. "Sir, do you know Young Master Lin Dong?"

Ding! Xuan Su feels excitement + exhilaration + joy + anticipation. Emotion points +200.

Ding! Xia Zhilan feels puzzled. Emotion points +50.

"Answer my question."

Whether he asked her or Xia Wan Jin, as long as he got an answer, it was all the same.

Xuan Su froze for a moment. "Young Master Lin Dong left several days ago."

He had left several days ago?

Upon hearing that answer, Chen Xuan turned and prepared to leave.

After taking only a few steps.

Xuan Su's voice came from behind him.

"Wait!"

Ding! Xuan Su feels surprise. Emotion points +50.

Ding! Xia Zhilan feels astonishment. Emotion points +50.

The system notifications appeared one after another.

For the sake of the emotion points.

Chen Xuan stopped, turned his head, and asked, "Is there something else?"

"Xuan Su would like to boldly invite you to a meal. Would you be willing to honor me with your presence?"

Xuan Su took a few graceful steps forward and smiled as she extended the invitation to Chen Xuan's back.

What?

Steward Su had actually taken the initiative to invite him to a meal!

Over all these years.

They had only heard.

That Steward Su had been rather close to Lin Dong of the Lin Family in Qingyang Town.

Yet she had never crossed the line.

After all, that was someone even City Lord Shi had admitted was beyond his match.

What did this brat have going for him?

Was it because he was handsome?

That was way too absurd!

Beside Xuan Su.

Xia Zhilan could not understand it either. Looking flustered, she tugged at Xuan Su's clothes.

Then asked in a very soft voice, "Aunt Su, are you trying to recruit him?"

Xuan Su nodded and replied quietly, "This man is very strong. We cannot let him slip away!"

Strong? Could he be stronger than Lin Dong?

Xia Zhilan was thoroughly unconvinced.

Chen Xuan turned around, raised his eyes, and looked at Xuan Su in her red qipao and Xia Zhilan in green. "Lead the way."

It just so happened that both of them were on the system's list of people from whom he could collect emotion points.

He could harvest a round from them.

Besides, didn't they admire Lin Dong?

Chen Xuan secretly swore that he would seize every woman and every opportunity connected to him.

He would not leave a single one for Lin Dong!

"This way, sir."

When Xuan Su saw that Chen Xuan had agreed.

A charming, radiant smile.

Immediately appeared on her elegant face.

Afterward.

She attentively stayed at Chen Xuan's side.

And led the way for him.

The way she deliberately, or perhaps unintentionally, swayed her waist looked like she was intentionally trying to tempt people into sin!

It was truly maddening.

Ding! Xuan Su feels happiness + anticipation. Emotion points +100.

At the same time, Xuan Su did not forget to quietly instruct a Guard to notify Xia Wan Jin and have him come over at once.

Meanwhile.

Among the crowd, spies from the City Lord's Manor quickly ran toward the manor to report the news.

The sight of Chen Xuan being escorted between the two women.

Made countless men in Yan City green with envy.

Sharing a meal with Xuan Su.

Was the dream of how many people?

Not to mention that Xia Zhilan, the daughter of the president of the Ten Thousand Gold Commerce Association, was accompanying him as well.

This was simply the pinnacle of life!

However, anyone whom Steward Su, such a shrewd person, treated so carefully was certainly no ordinary person.

Therefore, no hotheaded fool dared to step forward and provoke him.

Under Xuan Su's guidance.

They arrived at the Ten Thousand Gold Restaurant of the Ten Thousand Gold Commerce Association.

With Xia Zhilan and Xuan Su present, the manager immediately arranged a private room for them.

After they sat down.

"Little brother, I am a manager of the Ten Thousand Gold Auction House. My name is Xuan Su, and this is Xia Zhilan, the daughter of the president of the Ten Thousand Gold Commerce Association."

Xuan Su smiled sweetly, her charm utterly captivating.

Xia Zhilan, meanwhile, frowned slightly, looking quite displeased.

She was clearly unconvinced.

Chen Xuan naturally noticed.

But he ignored her.

Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, Xuan Su hurriedly tried to close the distance. "May I ask how I should address you, little brother?"

"Chen Xuan!"

"Brother Chen Xuan, you're not from Tiandu County, are you?"

Brother is enough. What's with adding "little"?

Whether I'm big or little, you've never actually seen it, so you have no right to comment!

Chen Xuan did not hold it against her. Instead, he asked with interest, "What, people who aren't from Tiandu County aren't allowed to come here?"

"Not at all."

"You invited me here, so it probably isn't just for a meal, right?"

"Xuan Su has always liked making the acquaintance of young talents. When I saw that Brother Chen Xuan was so extraordinary in strength, I naturally wished to befriend you."

Chen Xuan smiled. "How long until Xia Wan Jin gets here? I happen to have something I need them to handle."

How did he know I sent someone to summon Old Xia?

Xuan Su broke out in a cold sweat and inwardly cursed Xia Wan Jin viciously.

Why haven't you come yet?

If you don't come soon, she won't be able to hold out any longer!
