BXBX NOVEL Chapter 34 Grandmaster Liu
In front of him stood several people, their expressions respectful.
If outsiders were present, they would easily recognize the identities of these individuals.
Among them were elders as well as middle-aged men, but without exception, each was the Family Head of a powerful clan from Jinling City!
"Grandmaster Liu, are you satisfied with the environment here?"
An elder spoke respectfully.
Grandmaster Liu glanced at him lightly and chuckled, "When you built this hotel, you spent thirty billion and dared to name it Tianyuan, how could the environment be lacking?"
The words Tianyuan symbolized the North Star in ancient times.
It implied the most dazzling star among the stars in the night sky.
To dare name it Tianyuan showed the elder\'s ambition.
However, he truly achieved it, spending thirty billion to build a hotel, indeed worthy of the name Tianyuan.
"Indeed, nothing can escape Grandmaster Liu\'s astute eyes…"
"Since Grandmaster Liu is satisfied, that is the best!"
The elder said cheerfully.
Though he was the Family Head of a powerful clan in Jinling, he didn\'t dare act haughty in front of this middle-aged man.
This man was a Grandmaster from Bataang.
Grandmasters are like dragons, how could he, a mere Family Head, compare?
Not to mention, Bataang controlled Jinling City, and just a word from Grandmaster Liu could destroy the elder\'s family overnight!
"You are thoughtful."
Grandmaster Liu nodded slightly.
The others, seeing the elder interacting favorably with Grandmaster Liu, felt anxious.
Their families\' positions were dependent on the shelter of Bataang. If they could befriend this Grandmaster from Bataang, perhaps their family\'s strength could rise a level!
People become cunning with age…
Seeing the elder\'s face full of ingratiating expressions, everyone internally sneered.
Just as the thoughts of the others were whirling, a young man opened the door and strode to Grandmaster Liu\'s side.
"Master, someone from the Tian family is here to see you."
The young man whispered.
Grandmaster Liu\'s brows furrowed slightly, as if thinking of something.
He then nodded to the young man.
The young man immediately understood and turned to walk towards the door.
"Grandmaster Liu, the Tian family has recently clashed with the Lin family and suffered losses at the hands of the Lin family!"
"The person from the Tian family coming to see you now likely wants to ask for your help for the Tian family!"
After the young man left, someone immediately came forward and voiced their speculation.
Grandmaster Liu glanced at him and said indifferently, "The affairs of Jinling City cannot be hidden from me."
"I spoke out of turn..."
The man\'s expression changed slightly, and he quickly apologized.
If outsiders saw this scene, it would surely drop many jaws.
A mighty Family Head acting so humbly in front of this Grandmaster Liu!
The others all secretly laughed, thinking that his fondness for showing off had finally brought trouble!
It didn\'t take long for the young man to bring a middle-aged man before Grandmaster Liu.
"Master, this is the person from the Tian family."
After speaking, the young man left the room.
Grandmaster Liu scanned the man from the Tian family and asked quietly, "What do you seek from me?"
"I am Tian Qingshan from the Tian family, paying respects to Grandmaster Liu!"
Tian Qingshan bowed deeply, his words filled with respect.
He immediately stated his purpose, but first, he took out an ancient-looking wooden box from his bosom.
Handing the wooden box to Grandmaster Liu, Tian Qingshan pleasingly said, "Grandmaster Liu, this is a gift that the Family Head of the Tian family has specially prepared for your arrival in Jinling City!"
"The Family Head of the Tian family is thoughtful."
Grandmaster Liu said indifferently.
He then reached out to take the wooden box, and in front of everyone, he opened it.
Inside the wooden box was a jade pendant half the size of a palm, quite thick, about two centimeters.
Upon seeing this jade pendant, even the usually unflappable Grandmaster Liu\'s expression changed slightly, a flash of surprise passing through his eyes.
"Imperial Green! The Family Head of the Tian family is indeed generous!"
"Is this not the \'Imperial Green Jade\' that was bought for five billion at that recent auction?!"
"I was wondering who was so lavish, it turns out it was the Family Head of the Tian family! But only an Imperial Green is worthy of Grandmaster Liu\'s stature!"
...
The moment the wooden box was opened, several Family Heads standing nearby cried out in surprise.
Five billion wasn\'t too much for the people present, but spending five billion to buy a piece of Imperial Green was beyond them!
Not to mention that this five-billion-valued Imperial Green was merely given as a meeting gift.
Even though the recipient was a powerful Grandmaster from the Hegemonic Hall, the Family Heads still felt it was not worthwhile.
However, these thoughts were only in their minds; they would never voice them.
Hearing everyone\'s comments, Grandmaster Liu was very pleased, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
Seeing this, Tian Qingshan was delighted, knowing that the five billion spent by the Family Head was worth it.
Five billion to win the favor of a Grandmaster was definitely not a loss.
Moreover, since the Tian family had requests for Grandmaster Liu, a mere five billion was nothing.
"Grandmaster Liu, our Family Head said, \'Fine jade suits a hero!\'"
"This piece of Imperial Green Jade, in all of Jinling, only a hero like Grandmaster Liu deserves to possess it!"
Tian Qingshan seized the moment, his face full of ingratiating expressions.
Grandmaster Liu paid him no heed, but reached out to take the Imperial Green Jade from the wooden box, holding it up to the light to carefully admire it.
"Excellent! Excellent!"
Repeating the word twice showed how much Grandmaster Liu liked the jade.
Afterward, he put the jade back into the wooden box, his gaze falling on Tian Qingshan.
"The Family Head sent you to find me, what for?"
"Grandmaster Liu, you must also know about the grievances between my Tian family and the Lin family."
Upon hearing this, Grandmaster Liu nodded slightly, not pretending to be unaware as before.
Seeing his nod, Tian Qingshan continued, "This time, my Tian family has every intention of taking action against the Lin family!"
"However, it was unexpected that the Lin family found a peak hidden-strength expert, causing my Tian family to return in defeat!"
Grandmaster Liu\'s brows furrowed slightly, and he glanced at Tian Qingshan, asking slowly, "That person named Ye Ling? But isn\'t the Family Head of the Tian family also at the peak of hidden-strength?"
"Could it be that he is no match for Ye Ling?"
Upon hearing this, Tian Qingshan appeared stunned.
His expression became even more respectful: "Truly, there is nothing in Jinling City that can escape Grandmaster Liu\'s notice."
"Indeed, it was Ye Ling who intervened, causing my Tian family to return in defeat!"
"The Family Head asked me to meet Grandmaster Liu because he wishes for you to intervene on behalf of the Tian family at the martial arts conference the day after tomorrow, to eliminate Ye Ling and the Lin family!"
Ye Ling... the remaining scion of the Ye family?
Grandmaster Liu smiled, looking at Tian Qingshan and saying, "You go back and tell the Family Head, at the martial arts conference the day after tomorrow, I will take action for the Tian family."
"At that time, whatever death the Family Head wishes for Ye Ling, I will grant it!"
