Chapter 4: A Chaotic Situation in Central San Tian
In Central San Tian, it’s a survival of the fittest! Strength is the ultimate truth, and Chu Yang has always remembered this. If you start reasoning with someone, they might just think you're a coward…
Thus, when he arrived in Central San Tian this time, he had no intention of discussing any principles.
“We are from the Dark Demon!” The two men, both at the martial sovereign cultivation level, sensed Chu Yang's powerful aura and dared not act recklessly, but they promptly revealed their identities.
“Hmm, Dark Demon people, leave!” Chu Yang rolled his eyes. He thought to himself, if you weren't from the Dark Demon, I wouldn't even bother to teach you a lesson…
A sharp killing intent surged forth. The two Dark Demon spies turned pale and stood up immediately, saying, “We offer this seat to you, Your Excellency. Please leave a name, as the mountains are high and the waters are long; we will surely have warm encounters in the future.”
“Enough nonsense! If you don’t leave, you'll die!” Chu Yang coldly snorted.
The two men in black shot him a resentful glance before getting up and leaving. The waiter swiftly cleared the table, and Chu Yang took a seat leisurely.
I must say, this feeling of bullying others truly feels great. Especially since… the ones being bullied are from the Dark Demon.
The tavern fell silent for a moment.
Chu Yang stood up, smiled lightly, cupped his fists to all corners, and said, “I believe everyone knows why I occupy this table. I merely wish to learn some new information, like the current situation and the status of the major noble families. Hehe, everyone should feel free to talk; of course, if I gain the information I seek from your discussions, I will not disappoint you!”
People responded with a collective “Oh,” their initial glee at the Dark Demon’s misfortune completely disappeared.
This guy offended the Dark Demon right off the bat, appearing like a hot-headed youth; but after saying these few sentences, he seemed quite impressive. Especially the last remark, “If I learn what I want, I will not disappoint you.” This is something that only a true master strategist could articulate!
Moreover, this statement indicated that this person needed a vast amount of information, so much so that even he found it difficult to prioritize, thus opting for this method: everyone talks among themselves while he listens.
Damn, what kind of seasoned veteran would come up with such a brilliant tactic…
However, this person clearly has substantial cultivation; if we talk about things he finds interesting, what kind of benefits could he offer?
“Hey, have you heard? The Ji Family's two brothers have clashed with the Gao Family! It’s said that the second young master of the Ji Family, Ji Mo, and the eldest young master of the Gao Family, Gao Sheng, are vying for affection, and they fought fiercely…” A person at a nearby table suddenly changed the topic and began discussing the latest news from Central San Tian.
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow: Ji Mo? Ji Mo is vying for affection with Gao Sheng?
He immediately became interested, flipping his hand to produce a golden ingot that fell with a loud thud onto the table of the two men—ten taels of gold!
The two men turned to him in surprise, and Chu Yang smiled and nodded, indicating: continue speaking.
The two men, elated, tucked the gold into their pockets and began to expound on the romantic history of Ji Mo and Gao Sheng…
Others watching were immediately wide-eyed: Damn, can you earn gold just by talking a few words? Is there such a good thing?
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the tavern became lively.
“Hey, do you know who the eight young masters of the Canglan War Zone are?” a speaker raised an eyebrow, clearly directing the question at Chu Yang.
The eight young masters? Chu Yang flipped his hand again, tossing out another ingot of gold…
“Hmm, speaking of the situation in the Canglan War Zone…”
Bang! Another ingot of gold.
