Chapter 302: Master, Master!

Lin Rong was embarrassed . After confirming that he hadn't gone to the wrong box, he gestured for Master Chu Yun to wait a second, then went into the box .

Soon, quarreling could be heard from the box .

It was another steward of the chamber of commerce quarreling with Lin Rong, a woman, and of course it was who the box belonged to that they were arguing about .

Lin Rong said he had booked it during the day .

The woman said that clients with a Purple Tiger Card should take precedence .

"Lin Rong, have you already forgotten the rules of the chamber of commerce? Does your client have a card issued by the bank?"

The woman's voice was beautiful, and she was silver-tongued . She had forcibly occupied the box, but it sounded like she hadn't done anything wrong at all .

"Of course I know the rules, but there are special cases—" Lin Rong tried his best to argue . No matter whether he could win the quarrel or not, he had to show the master his helpful attitude .

"Special cases refer to clients without VIP cards but with amazing skills," the woman interrupted him .

"Exactly . "

"But I don't see this in the client you brought here . The auction item you listed at the last minute is also stupid," the woman scorned .

"You—!"

Lin Rong was so irritated that he was ready to risk everything . He said coldly, "You don't get to decide whether this is a special case or not . If you insist, let's go to see the chairman . "

The woman was obviously surprised by this .

"Really? My client is Master Flaming Leaf, class-eight alchemist," the woman's voice rang out .

Class-eight alchemist!

This was an important position in the Sacred City . Lin Rong was surprised, but he came to himself and said, "So what? If you want the box, go to the chairman . "

"Lin Rong, you've done some great business these days . Is that why you're being so cocky? Don't do anything you'll regret!"

"Xiao Feng, you're the one picking a fight with me, aren't you? You just don't want me to steal your thunder . "

At that moment, they heard footsteps coming from the end of the corridor .

Jiang Chen looked over . It was an animated old man walking with vigorous strides . He was followed by two young adolescents, a girl and a boy .

They stopped beside Jiang Chen with confused expressions .

Jiang Chen assumed this man was Master Flaming Leaf, and he blocked the entrance to the box .

He heard some noises behind the door when he was about to explain, then he knew he wouldn't have to say anything .

The door was opened from the inside . Both the female steward, Xiao Feng, and Lin Rong looked very upset . They were obviously surprised when they saw Jiang Chen, Master Flaming Leaf, and the rest .

"What happened?" asked Master Flaming Leaf .

"Master, this box is reserved for someone else," said Xiao Feng .

Before Master Flaming Leaf could speak, the girl behind him said unhappily, "Why didn't you tell us earlier?"

"Because the person the box is reserved for is a special case . I thought there was room to negotiate so that I could provide master with the best service, but…" said Xiao Feng .

Lin Rong turned pale . She was directing the spearhead at him .

As expected, Master Flaming Leaf looked unhappy .

He dealt with the chamber of commerce a lot . Of course he knew what a special case meant .

"Young friend, you've earned the special treatment of the chamber of commerce at such a young age . How great," Master Flaming Leaf looked towards Jiang Chen and said with a slight smile .

"Thank you, master . I just have an insignificant skill that isn't worth mentioning," said Jiang Chen .

"Now that you know it's insignificant, give the box to us . It'll be troublesome for us to change from one box to another!" the boy shouted .

"Flying Cloud!" Master Flaming Leaf scolded . Then he looked towards Jiang Chen again .

"He's too young . Please don't take his words seriously . "

Then he smiled, awaiting Jiang Chen's reaction . If he was smart enough, he would read between the lines and give up the box to them .

"It's all right . I won't lower myself to his level," said Jiang Chen .

Master Flaming Leaf frowned . Flying Cloud and the girl flew into a rage .

Xiao Feng decided to pour gasoline on the flames . She said helplessly, "Master Flaming Leaf, I'll lead you to a sky-grade box . "

The boxes of the Sacred Wind Chamber of Commerce had four grades: human, earth, sky, and deity .

The deity-grade box was the best . Master Flaming Leaf was used to enjoying it .

The grade of his proposed new box was one level lower . Before Master Flaming Leaf said anything, his two apprentices were already unhappy .

"We used to get the deity-grade box . Why only the sky-grade today?!" Flying Cloud shouted .

"That's why I was trying so hard to get it for you, but my colleague is very resolute . I'm afraid I can do nothing about it," said Xiao Feng .

Lin Rong sneered . He didn't want to waste more time, so he didn't try to explain to Master Flaming Leaf .

"Master, this way . "

He looked towards Jiang Chen, walked to the side to make way, and extended his right arm towards the box .

Flying Cloud and the girl were completely irritated by his gesture .

"You called such a young guy master? Do you have eyes or not?"

"So, anyone can be a master in the Sacred Wind Chamber of Commerce . "

Jiang Chen already had a foot in the door . When he heard such a sarcastic comment, he turned his head to the side and said, "It's a real insult to the title of master to have such apprentices . "

"What did you say?!"

Flying Cloud and the girl hit the roof . It seemed like they wanted to teach Jiang Chen a lesson .

"I said you don't have manners!" Then he gave off the energy of a Reaching Heaven State and pushed Flying Cloud and the girl back .

They were only the master's apprentices; they weren't in a high state .

Both of them turned pale . Their chests were heaving up and down as if they couldn't breathe .

"My young friend, that was too much . My apprentices are still very young . Couldn't you show more tolerance?" Master Flaming Leaf pulled a long face and said coldly .

"You've spent half the day talking nonsense, but didn't try to make them apologize . Instead, I gave you an inch and you took a mile . I didn't attack them at the beginning . That's the tolerance I've shown . "

Jiang Chen didn't look at him any longer . He walked into the box and slammed the door .

In two or three seconds, it was nearly silent in the corridor . Even their breathing could be heard .

"Master Flaming Leaf, you saw that, too . "

Xiao Feng was very nervous . She had intended to frame Lin Rong, but she hadn't expected the young master to be so hot-tempered .

If Master Flaming Leaf really flew into a rage, she would be blamed, too .

"Master, let's go to the chairman! Or let's talk to the staff of the Bank of Sacred City . "

"Yeah! There's no way this loathsome guy is nobler than master!"

"Take us to the box first . "

Master Flaming Leaf still looked glum . No one knew what was on his mind .

Xiao Feng nodded . When she was leading the way, she said, "I don't think that guy can be compared to Master Flaming Leaf, either . Do you know what he came for?"

"Oh? What for?"

"He brought us some panaceas to auction off . "

"Yeah? Panaceas that could be auctioned… What class are the breakthrough panaceas?"

"Couldn't tell . "

Xiao Feng smiled mysteriously and said, "He claimed his panaceas could help practitioners develop their extraordinary meridians with great effects . For every panacea they take, they'll be able to develop one extraordinary meridian successfully . "

"Does that apply to Reaching Heaven States?" Master Flaming Leaf asked with care .

"No . Only to Mental Wander States . "

Master Flaming Leaf and his two apprentices stopped immediately, then Master Flaming Leaf burst out laughing . So did Flying Cloud and the girl .

"Master, you also think it impossible, don't you? So do I, but Lin Rong is stupid . He's treating a stranger who came here for the first time as the most important guest . That's irritating . "

Xiao Feng was laughing grimly silently .

Thanks to the conflict with Master Flaming Leaf, if Lin Rong made a fool of himself in the auction, the achievements he had gained the past weeks in the chamber of commerce would all vanish .

He would even lose his chance to start over again .
