Chapter 389: Chapter 389. Young Master Fu's arrogance.
Kali didn't speak with the catkin again, waiting for this group to approach. Although it was a hunch, she felt this wolfkin was walking toward them.
As Kali expected, the man and his group approached them, arriving seconds later. After closing the distance, he looked at the catkin, ignoring Kali and the rest, and laughed aloud. "Friend, I'm here again! What goods do you have for me today? I broke my cauldron the last time, so I hope you can sell me something nice."
The catkin's smile twitched. 'Can't you see that I have other customers with me?'
However, considering this person's position, he ignored our girls and spoke to the man. "Young master Fu, it is good having you here again. As you can see, I was selling this cauldron to these customers here."
"Oh? This cauldron is new. I see that it looks quite nice. I'll buy it!" He said, interrupting whatever he was going to say.
Angel and Evelyn had to hold their tongues because they were humans. However, for some reason, even when he hadn't done something too wrong, they really wanted to walk up and slap this person.
Yasenia didn't care about the cauldron. However, this man had just interrupted her honey's conversation. If it weren't for Tatyana's hand scratching the back of her head, she would have slapped him with her tail. 'Can't you see that my honey is talking with this person? Moreover, you interrupted when honey was about to make a good deal!'
Kali wouldn't allow herself to be bullied, so she spoke softly. "This employee, we were speaking with you first, so how about you finish your business with us before talking to this man?"
A female dogkin walking behind the wolfkin sneered and stepped forward, crossing her arms before her. "Who do you think you are to speak before young master Fu, little fox? Do you not know you can't interrupt your superiors when they talk?"
This young man surnamed Fu looked at Yasenia's group, finally placing them in his eyes. When he saw Ghana accompanying this group, his eyes became interested. 'Why is this harpy here instead of serving my Father?'
However, what caught his eyes more was the people themselves. "Hoh~, these human servants are quite beautiful."
Yasenia's gaze began to cool down, knowing there wasn't a way to avoid confrontation.
He turned toward Kali, not forgetting to scan her up and down, and asked. "Beautiful Fox, sell them to me. I'm willing to pay five high-grade Parus for each of them."
A friend of his laughed and said. "Brother, why pay so much? Aren't they just human slaves? Although they are wearing quite beautiful robes, they are just playthings. I think that five middle-level Parus are enough."
The moment he finished speaking, they all felt the air around them cooling down, literally and metaphorically.
"It seems that not only the master but the dogs wagging their tails behind you also have brain problems."
Cecile's voice was below freezing as small ice particles appeared around her. Her aura was so cold that they couldn't help but shiver.
However, the guards behind young master Fu reacted and took out their weapons. "Insolent! You are in the presence of the young City Lord. Apologize for your transgression!"
Cecile sneered and released her bloodline pressure without containing anything.
In less than an instant, the entirety of the hall was covered with a thin sheet of ice as Cecile's presence seemed to cover the sky.
Their expression changed to one of dread when the low-level Ancient Beast Bloodline flooded the entire hall.
The catkin who tried to inflate the price before felt this sensation even more deeply. He thought that the fox-kin was already dreadful, but now this woman resulted to be even worse.
Young Master Fu's expression also turned gloomy. However, he wasn't that afraid. His own bloodline was also relatively high, so he could barely resist the pressure. 'What kind of bloodline level is this? I've never felt something like this!'
However, he didn't cower. 'Before strength, what is bloodline level? I can make you disappear, and nobody would be able to tell how. You are in my domain!'
Filling his head with false confidence, he sneered and said. "How about you relax, beauty? I just want to buy your human slaves. No need to get so agitated."
Cecile's face behind her blue veil became even colder. "What did you call me?"
Kali and the other girls looked at Young Master Fu with pity. 'Flirting with Cecile? Are you trying to get yourself killed?'
If something touched Cecile's nerves besides people slighting Yasenia, it was people trying to court her.
Young Master Fu felt the change of mood from the phoenix woman, so he smiled. "What, are you flattered? If you sincerely apologize, I don't mind allowing you to become my concubine. With your bloodline level, our children would be powerful."
Kali stepped forward, using her cultivation to arrive before him instantly. 'This braindead person, you just had to step on the Phoenix's tail.'
Just as Kali arrived, she felt a gust of wind approaching the man's dantian. Kali hastily extended her hand and covered it with wood armor.
*BANG!*
A powerful shockwave spread on the impact point, sending Young Master Fu rolling onto the ground.
Kali's hand armor shattered as the penetrative force of the punch damaged her. The pain made her hiss for a second. However, she looked at Cecile's surprised face and said calmly. "Relax, we are not in our territory; this person is important. We should avoid trouble."
Cecile nodded obediently and flashed back to her original position. Nobody could follow their speed.
Although Cecile wasn't reconciled, she knew she was wrong.
Kali shook her hurting hand and turned her face toward the stunned man, saying with a flat tone. "If you keep talking nonsense, I won't be able to protect your life the next time, so shut up."
The man's facial expression went through a string of emotions. From fear to anger, from shame to indignation. This was the most embarrassing episode of his life. Not only could he not see and feel the incoming punch, but another person had to block it for him. Moreover, looking at the two-tailed fox woman, it was probably relatively effortless.
His face became ugly, and he said. "Ha! You slut only protected me because you are afraid-"
*SLAP!*
Ghana approached him and slapped him across his face. Before Young Master Fu could react to this surprise slap, Ghana reprimanded him. "Stupid child, can't you even guess why I am here? Can't you spend two seconds thinking with the head above your shoulders!? They are esteemed guests; your father sent me to keep them company and avoid trouble from happening! Yet you almost threw all of our efforts out of the window!"
Young Master Fu frowned. However, he was confident because of a recent event when he was admitted as a disciple of one of the Nine Sects. "So what? I have nothing to fear unless they are part of a major power. If I want something from them, they should be grateful and give me their things!"
Yasenia had seen plenty of people like him, but this was the first time she felt the difference between having Tatyana backing them and being able to shut up these unreasonable people with violence, compared to facing them without backing.
She would have stepped forward and crippled or killed him if they were back in the Sky Continent. However, now that they couldn't act aggressively, these people would not fear or back away as quickly.
Ghana was stunned at the response she received. However, she also felt something wrong. 'Why would he be so confident?'
Young Master Fu pushed Ghana aside and said to his guards. "I've never tried riding a wild Phoenix. How about capturing and sharing her with brothers and sisters with special tastes? I bet her friends would like to see how I make her my little toy, hahaha."
Kali looked at him for five seconds and said. "We don't want trouble, but we are also unafraid. I recommend you stop your idiocy before this escalates out of control for both parties. Our Astral Sky Clan doesn't want trouble with this city."
Young master Fu looked at Kali again and smiled arrogantly. "But I want to escalate things. What are you going to do, kill me? Hahaha, I'm part of one of the Nine sects and also the son of the City Lord. What can you do to me? Nothing! If you dare harm me, you'll have one of the most influential powers and every armed force in this city hunting you."
Kali and the others frowned and glanced at Yasenia for a second. However, their hairs stood on their ends when they saw a pair of half-red, half-golden reptilian eyes observing the situation.
Tatyana looked at Yasenia, and her eyes danced with amusement when they looked back at Young Master Fu. 'Provoking my daughter so thoroughly. I hope you are able to bear her wrath, young man.'
At that moment, Yasenia decided to speak. "Take one step or order your guards to walk up, and I will kill you. I don't like repeating things, so think deeply before you act."
Her voice carried a menacing growl that made most beast humans tuck their tails between their legs as their bodies filled with a deep sense of fear and reverence.
The eyes of everyone in the store turned toward Yasenia, and for a second only silence reigned in the area. Although Yasenia was very noticeable, she usually walked with her wings folded, trying to minimize her presence. Moreover, she was also using a technique to make herself easier to ignore.
Of course, this only lasted until a person looked at her intently or she gathered attention to herself.
This time, Yasenia's presence was not like Cecile's.
Cecile was like an ethereal woman that could only be looked up to.
A woman who was far above the clouds and wandered the world alone. Therefore, her anger was chilling and gloomy.
However, Yasenia's current aura was like the moments before a natural disaster would ensue. Although it seemed calm, the sense of fear penetrated a person to the point that made their soul shiver.
Moreover, this time, not even Young Master Fu could ignore the bloodline pressure emitted by Yasenia.
Ghana's expression changed when she couldn't even begin to guess the bloodline level. Her aura felt like a vast ocean while they were small boats thrown around by the tall waves.
'Was this young dragon their leader all along!?'
Young master Fu's expression was severe, and he said, not realizing that his voice was quivering. "Y-You, you. What power are you from!? How can a dragon have this kind of bloodline pressure!?"
Yasenia stepped forward elegantly.
However, the tiles under her claws cracked under the pressure of her aura each time she took a step. Moreover, all the people present felt as if the weight on their shoulders was increasing with each step.
The reason was that Yasenia was slowly increasing the strength of her [Empyrean Dragon Authority].
While everyone was basically paralyzed because of Yasenia's pressure, she arrived before Young Master Fu. Her dragon face was a few centimeters away from his face.
Yasenia observed his trembling eyes and said with contempt. "Do you think you are worthy of me explaining things to you? If we didn't want to keep a low profile, I would have already turned you and your little friends into cold corpses. Now, will you continue to act like a brain-damaged person, or will you stop?"
Young Master Fu's eyes had deep resentment besides the deep fear. Yasenia's eyes saw the desire for revenge, and her face became indifferent as she began raising her claw.
Ghana was afraid that this person would really kill him, so she stepped forward with difficulty, her forehead and body filled with cold sweat because of how strenuous it was to move in Yasenia's domain, and said with a trembling voice. "Young Dragon, please, reign your wrath. Once I inform his father, you'll probably not hear about him again, no matter how vengeful he is currently feeling. Our city only has good intentions toward your clan, and killing him would sever every chance to make cooperation possible!"
Yasenia paused and looked at Ghana with interest. 'Hmm? She can move and talk in this atmosphere. Impressive. If I can, I should poach her to my side.'
Yasenia didn't have any intention of killing this man. However, she was about to kill those behind him. Since she knew that this person would not stop searching her for vengeance, she first wanted to see the City Lord's reaction. Then, depending on the situation, she would think about how to act.
Her life-saving treasures were still untouched in her ring, so she was not fearful unless Transcendence level cultivators appeared. Although two of her life-saving treasures could deal with even these, she knew their reaction speed was beyond anything she could do.
Ghana felt the pressure dissipating and sighed in relief.
Yasenia was about to step back, but her senses caught something. She turned her face toward the entrance and frowned for a second.
Tatyana sensed something and looked in the same direction. Then, her lips arched. 'Interesting. Someone strong made an appearance~.'
