Chapter 279 He Was Shocked
“You want to see the big boss?”
The male shop assistant was stunned, but he did not dare to neglect the city lord, so he told him the truth.
“This matter still needs to be decided by Boss Xueer. Can you wait for a moment? When Boss Xueer comes back, I’ll help you ask, but you might not be able to see the big boss.”
“Okay, sorry to trouble you.”
The city lord nodded and sat on the chair next to him. He began to wait silently, without the slightest bit of impatience.
This scene, this scene, caused the few tycoons to be dumbfounded.
They looked at each other and realized that something was wrong.
Although they were tycoons, they were nothing compared to the city lord.
However, even the city Lord had to lower his voice. How could they not understand that this shop had a backer?
In an instant, they thought of their attitude not long ago and panicked. They hurriedly walked in front of the male shop assistant and smiled.
“Little brother, I’m really sorry about just now. We were also anxious and our attitude was a little bad. Please forgive us. This is just a small token.”
“Yes, yes, yes. A small token, a small token.”
A few rich men took the money and stuffed it into the hands of the male shop assistant. They no longer had the arrogance from before. Instead, they only had flattery and kindness.
“This…”
The male shop assistant looked at the few rich men whose attitudes had changed drastically. Looking at their flattery, he thought of the rude scene of the few rich men from before.
The male shop assistant suddenly understood why Boss Xueer would even suffer a heavy loss just to rely on Big Boss Li Xuan.
With the big boss as a stabilizing needle, no one dared to look down on their commerce chamber. As long as Li Xuan was around, he would be like the dragon in the city. Even a tiger would have to lie down. Everyone had to be obedient.
Thinking of this, the male shop assistant could not help but admire Li Xuan. At the same time, he took the money. He was prepared to tell Boss Xueer everything later and offer the money.
When the few rich men saw that the male shop assistant had taken the money, they finally heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did they hurriedly walk to the corner.
They did not dare to sit anymore. Instead, they stood obediently in the corner. There was no longer the slightest bit of arrogance. There was only nervousness.
They had just stood there for a while when suddenly, another person walked in from the door. It was a white-haired old man who was travel-worn. This white-haired old man’s aura was very powerful. His spirit energy undulations had shockingly reached the strength of the Silver Rank Peak.
At this moment, the white-haired old man was carrying two exquisite boxes. The boxes were made of Spiritual Wood. With one look, one could tell that they were not ordinary items.
His appearance caused even the city lord’s expression to change. Then, he gave up the first seat and chose to sit on the second seat.
“Kid, is Mr. Li Xuan here?”The old man’s voice was hoarse as he looked at the male shop assistant.
“The big boss is here, but if you want to see him, you have to ask Boss Xueer. Right now, only she can see him…”
“But Boss Xueer hasn’t returned yet. Can you sit for a while? Boss Xueer will be back in a while,” the male shop assistant said carefully.
“Okay.”
The white-haired old man nodded and did not say anything. Instead, he sat on the main seat with his eyes closed, pretending to sleep. This old man’s aura was very strong. The aura that he unconsciously emitted was very strong
was so strong that everyone present could not stand properly.

Those wealthy merchants stood far away and could still feel the strong aura. They felt fear in their hearts and regretted their rude attitude just now even more.
At this moment, when the burly tycoon saw the family emblem on the white-haired old man’s clothes, his expression instantly changed. He hurriedly walked out of the shop and chose to wait outside.
When the remaining tycoons saw this scene, they also hurriedly walked out of the shop and whispered.
“Qian Hu, what’s wrong? Why are you suddenly waiting outside the shop?”
“That’s right. Did you discover something? Is It related to the white-haired old man?”
A few tycoons asked in puzzlement as they stared at the muscular tycoon, Qian Hu. “Do you know who that white-haired old man is?” Qian Hu asked seriously. “Who is he?” The tycoons were curious as they quietly waited for an answer.
“The Iron Blood Commerce Chamber!” Qian Hu reminded solemnly.
“Iron Blood Commerce Chamber? The Shi family of the Imperial City?” Everyone was completely moved as their eyes were filled with shock.
“Yes, that’s them. I saw the family emblem on his clothes just now. This elder’s aura is so terrifying. It’s very likely that he’s the great elder of the Shi family.”
“The great elder of the Shi family? Really? That’s a super expert known as the Bloody Butcher. How could he wait so quietly?” Someone could not believe it, and his face was extremely pale.
“It can’t be wrong. This great elder has been seriously injured and is unable to completely suppress his Spiritual Power fluctuations. That’s why we feel such a terrifying pressure,” Qian Hu analyzed. “This… then what should we do? Even such a terrifying expert is waiting obediently. We actually dared to make a ruckus just now. If this news were to spread, I’m afraid we won’t be able to live past tonight.”
The various tyrants were on the verge of tears. In their hearts, they felt extremely uncomfortable and aggrieved.
They did not expect to encounter such a situation after coming here to buy something. They simply wanted to cry but had no tears.
“Don’t feel bad for now. We still have a chance to make up for it. Later, we can buy Demonic Beast materials at a high price, no matter what grade it is…”
“Even if Li Xueer’s price is very high, we still have to buy it, in order to make up for our mistake,” Qian Hu said solemnly.
“You’re right. Let’s do it this way. I’ll definitely perform well later.”
“Me too. If she offers a low price, I’ll raise the price for her. That way, they’ll feel our sincerity.”
“Right, right, right.”
The few tycoons discussed in secret. They decided to perform well later and swore that they would never be rude again.
On the other side…
On the road outside the city, two men with extraordinary auras were riding tall horses as they headed towards the city gate.
The man in the lead had a rough face and a burly build. It was obvious that he was straightforward and had a bad temper.
At this moment, as he was riding the horse, he said to the guard next to him. “Guard Liu, has Li Xueer’s commerce chamber been notified?”
“Reporting to Boss Tie. They sent a letter yesterday, informing Li Xueer that we will go today and ask her to keep all the Demonic Beast Materials…”
“Presumably, Li Xueer wouldn’t dare to refuse your order, so she would definitely keep those materials for you,” Guard Liu said loudly.
“That’s inevitable. A small commerce chamber is lucky enough to receive some materials. Our Iron Hand Gang is one of the three major forces in Wei City. If this small commerce chamber didn’t listen to us, then we’ll directly destroy it,” Boss Tie said arrogantly.
“Indeed. Boss Tie, your reputation is well-known. Who doesn’t know how powerful you are? Maybe Li Xueer is waiting for you at the city gate now,” Guard Liu said flatteringly.
“Hahaha, well said. I really want to see the scene of me being welcomed. Let’s go.” The boorish Boss Tie was very happy. He rode his horse and ran toward the city gate in anticipation. He really wanted to see the scene of him being welcomed.
A moment later, Boss Tie looked at the empty city gate. Seeing that no one came to welcome him, his face turned gloomy.
“This small commerce chamber is really bold. Let’s go to Li Xueer’s commerce chamber!” Boss Tie shouted with a dark face.
“Yes!”
Seeing that Boss Tie was unhappy, Guard Liu silently mourned for Li Xueer in his heart.
It was because Boss Tie had always been irritable and liked to talk with his fists. Although Boss Tie did not hit women, he would randomly destroy things. He might even destroy Li Xueer’s shop.
With this thought in mind, the two of them rode their horses into the city quickly. After asking around, they went straight to the entrance of Li Xue’er’s shop.
However, they came to a place not far from the shop and saw a few rich men standing at the entrance of the shop from afar. These rich men looked very familiar. When Boss Tie came closer, his expression instantly became serious.
“It’s Qian Hu from the Qian family. Why is this guy here?” Boss Tie said with a serious expression. “Boss Tie, who is the Qian family? Are they very powerful?” Guard Liu asked blankly.
“Not really, but this guy is very rich. He has hired quite a number of Bronze Rank experts and is very difficult to deal with.”
“Follow me later. Be careful not to anger him. This guy is very vengeful,” Boss Tie warned.
“Yes!” Guard Liu nodded. He felt that he had seen the world this time.
“Let’s go.”
Boss Tie dismounted from his horse and quickly led bodyguard Liu to the entrance of the shop. He deliberately didn’t look at Qian Hu and directly walked into the shop.
However, just as he took a step and did not enter the shop, Boss Tie felt a terrifying aura. That aura caused Tie Hu’s expression to change greatly, and he hurriedly retreated.
