Chapter 213: Playing with the Playboy (1)

The expression of the brocade-clothed Young Master stiffened. His arrogant eyes swept over Su Luo with disdain as he spoke in a condescending manner, "Stinky Girl, what a sharp tongue you have. But didn't you ask around before coming here who the master of this Raw Material Market is?"

Who was the master of this Raw Material Market? She really hadn't asked about it, but was it important?

A playful smile rose in Su Luo's eyes. "Oh? Could it be that your family owns it?" If his family really owned it, why would he try to force a purchase from her over a tiny red crystal stone? It didn't make sense at all.

The brocade-clothed Young Master laughed contemptuously. With a snap, he opened his folding fan and lifted his chin triumphantly, casting a proud glance at the dog servant beside him.

That servant understood and immediately became arrogant again. Pointing at Su Luo, he sneered, "Hehe, prick up your ears and listen well! Although this Raw Material Market isn't owned by our Young Master's family, it's practically the same!"

Practically the same? It looked like there was quite a difference. Su Luo smiled coldly. "Oh? I'd like to hear the details."

"Hmph! Let me tell you! This Raw Material Market is run by the Mercenary Guild!" That dog servant had an expression that said she should be terrified, trembling, and getting on her knees.

The Mercenary Guild? Who would have thought that upon hearing those words, Su Luo would suddenly burst into laughter. If it were owned by someone else, she might have been a bit wary, but if it was Bei Chenying's Mercenary Guild, then… Su Luo squinted at the brocade-clothed Young Master with a half-smile. "Oh? So it's run by the Mercenary Guild. My apologies. I just don't know who this Young Master is to the Mercenary Guild? A Branch President? A Vice President? Or… the President himself?"

Su Luo maliciously placed a heavy title on the brocade-clothed Young Master's head.

Immediately, the brocade-clothed Young Master grew anxious. He glared at the dog servant, who in turn glared at Su Luo. Pointing at her, the servant shouted angrily, "You ignorant Stinky Girl, don't you know that our Young Master is a good friend of President Bei Chen? Since this Raw Material Market is run by Lord Bei Chen, it's equivalent to being run by our Young Master! Talking to an ignorant idiot of a Stinky Girl like you really lowers our status!"

What? Talking to her would lower their status? Su Luo felt a bit bewildered… "Oh? Since this Raw Material Market is run by President Bei Chen, and since your Young Master is a good friend of Lord Bei Chen, then surely you must have plenty of crystal stones. Surely you wouldn't be interested in my tiny little red crystal stone?" Su Luo checkmated him from the source.

"You—" The dog servant didn't expect this Stinky Girl's words to be so sharp and was momentarily speechless. He glared at Su Luo huffily and turned to the brocade-clothed Young Master for help.

The brocade-clothed Young Master also felt embarrassed, but since things had reached this point, if he backed down, it would seem like he was afraid. How could he maintain his footing in this Raw Material Market in the future? The Young Master's cold eyes glared icily at Su Luo. "My family has mountains of crystal stones, but so what? I simply want to buy the one in your hand. Will you sell it or not?"

At that moment, an invisible pressure suddenly spread out from his body.

This was the pressure of a third-rank Martial Artist. For ordinary people, it was a Heaven-Defying existence.

In an instant, the crowd retreated in terror, moving far away from the scene for fear of being caught in the crossfire.

A cold glint flashed through Su Luo's eyes!

I originally said I would resume updates yesterday, but there was blood in my mucus, which scared me to death… I went to see a doctor who said it was caused by too much internal heat. Sigh, I'm really resuming updates now. I'll try to update more chapters today. Everyone, please don't riot; I'll get scared.
