Chapter 273 - Chain (1)
Entering the tower, what appeared in front of him were countless black cloaked man, each of them using black robe to hide their appearances, and at the same time, they held onto an item in their hands. Occasionally, people would look at other people's items, and they would discuss the price. Of course, there were people here who had a conflict when discussing the price, and then the two started fighting.
When he saw the items in the hands of those people, even someone as powerful as him would occasionally be moved by it. If it wasn't for the fact that he had to work with Xia Xuan, he probably would have already gone up to discuss the price.
"Are you Elder Yu?" Suddenly, a man dressed in a suit appeared out of nowhere beside Xia Xuan, bowed to him and said respectfully.
"That's right, where is Dong Xue?" Xia Xuan did not hide from view as he directly asked.
When the surrounding people heard what Xia Xuan said, all of them were extremely shocked. In this black market, the number of people who dared to directly say the name Dong Xue did not even exceed one hand.
What surprised everyone was the next scene, only to hear that the suited man was not surprised by Xia Xuan directly addressing Dong Xue by her name. Her respectful attitude had instead increased a bit, and her body unconsciously bent a little, as she said in an even more respectful voice: "The Tower Master has already been waiting for a long time."
"Brother Yi, just buy whatever you see. I'll help you pay for it later, so you should leave for a while." Xia Xuan said to the First Brother, and then disappeared with the man in the suit.
The surrounding people were dazed for a moment, and then, all of their gazes shifted towards the first brother. From what Xia Xuan had said to the suited man before, they could tell that Xia Xuan had that kind of position that directly called out to Dong Xue, and since the first brother was Xia Xuan's man, his status was naturally not low either.
Immediately, many people surrounded him, all of them boasting about their items, hoping to be able to sell him a favor. Of course, the price would be a bit lower.
At the same time, Xia Xuan and the suited man appeared in a small loft. There was a small room there, and Xia Xuan was also standing in front of the door.
This was the topmost floor of the entire Black Ease Tower, the place where the Tower Master lived. Even the elders of the tower didn't dare to come here, because the Tower Master of the Black Ease Tower was the most powerful person in the entire black market and at the same time, the pillar of the Black Ease Tower.
"Knock knock." The suited man knocked on the door twice and then said, "Tower Lord, Elder Yu is here."
"You may leave." The voice of a woman sounded from the small room.
Hearing the voice, the man in the suit bowed respectfully towards the door, and then disappeared, leaving Xia Xuan alone at the door.
"Come in." The voice rang out again, and then the door automatically opened.
The expression on Xia Xuan's face became serious, he took a firm step, and his footsteps made a thumping sound on the floor.
After entering the room, Xia Xuan's brow couldn't help but wrinkle its brows. Although the girls took care of the room themselves, it wasn't as tidy as expected nor as fragrant as it should be.
This room was extremely messy, and scattered documents could be seen everywhere. Even though there was a distance of a few metres between them, with Xia Xuan's eyesight, he was still able to clearly see what was written on those papers.
Sweeping his gaze across the papers, Xia Xuan's gaze finally fixed upon a table in the center of the room. Beside the table sat a person with a head full of fluffy long hair who was currently engrossed in processing documents. If one did not know her identity, people would have thought that she was a beggar.
Looking at Dong Xue who had become this way after processing the Black Ease Tower, Xia Xuan couldn't speak for a long time. Ten thousand years ago, this child was still very beautiful.
"You are Yu Ran?" Dong Xue did not raise his head, and continued to concentrate on processing the documents.
"My name is Xia Xuan now." Xia Xuan said in the end.
"You came here to use the chain." Dong Xue said again.
"That's right, we need to sell some spiritual medicines." Xia Xuan nodded his head, and then placed the storage rings on the table.
Dong Xue still did not pay any attention to him, as she continued to process the documents, as if she did not know what Xia Xuan had said.
