The Qingyun Emperor was so sick that it was impossible to get a valid answer from him. However, Wu Qiujun's tone of certainty made his alleged prerogatives appear well-grounded. And if one made an insight to it, he would find it reasonable. The blood steel was a native product of the Tiezhan Empire. While in the Qingyun Empire, there was no detected trace of the blood steel to date. However, the demands for blood steel of the Qingyun Empire were not fewer than that of the Tiezhan Empire. In order to stay free from the Tiezhan warriors' bully, the Qingyun warriors had no option but to turn to the Tianbao Mansion for the blood steel to produce premium weapons. Known as an unspoken rule, help seekers are inferior. Hence, the Qingyun Empire reduced to have signed an unjust treaty with the Tiezhan Empire on its knees.
"That was a bad omen for the Qingyun youngster," Wandong knitted his eyebrows.
Wu Qiujun waved his hand to the security forces, "What's the wait? Come and beat him to death!" Then the vulture-like security guys scrambled toward the youngster, waving their rampant fists. Already taken one attack from Wu Qiujun, the youngster was unable to take any cruelties. He would die within a quarter.
"Bastards! Stop!" Wandong's ear-splitting voice, underpinned by his Taoist energy, almost deafened all present. The security guys put on a scared look all across the board.
"Xu Yaoting, you'd better shut up and stand aside! Otherwise, I won't mind helping you reorganize your bones!" Wu Qiujun rubbed his hands, looking tempted to teach Wandong a lesson.
"Wu Qiujun granted the Tianbao Mansion reports to the Tiezhan Empire. Take a look around, all your customers are no other than the Qingyun people. In other words, it was the Qingyun people that have been supporting you all along. They deserve your respect! Don't you find it improper to treat your benefactors in such an inhuman manner!" Wandong's condemnation resonated well with the customers standing by. They had long felt resentful. Now they all flared up, some of whom even stood out to blame the unscrupulous Tianbao Mansion.
However, Wu Qiujun took no notice of the angry crowd and let out a sneer. "We never for you into a purchase here in the Tianbao Mansion. You do that of your own volition. Do you crave my respect? No kidding!"
"Wu Qiujun, will you still ride the high horse if there is blood steel in the Qingyun Empire? " Wandong went indignantly.
"Hahaha...Dream on! The Qingyun Empire is so remote and poor! There won't be even a trace of the blood steel stored there!" Wu Qiujun laughed without scruples.
Wu Qiujun's shameless remark further irritated the angry crowd. Waves of curses came out one after another, signaling a riot. However, with a clap, Wu Qiujun gathered dozens of security guys. Their eyes ran down the crowd, ready to make a kill.
"Anyone who dares to cause troubles here in the Tianbao Mansion will be killed on the spot. No one will get away with that. You hear me!"
Then Wu Qiujun turned back to Duan Lengyan, "Lengyan, double the price of the raw gemstones of the blood steel. It will be two thousand-kilo gold a cube from now on."
The raw stones, when priced a thousand kilos of gold, already cost most of the Tianbao people an arm and a leg. However, Wu Qiujun doubled the price just in the blink of an eye, destroying the Qingyun peoples' hopes relentlessly. The whole crowd went silent forthwith.
Under the cemetery-like circumstance, the only voice that could be heard was from Duan Lengyan. She sounded haughty and cold, "Yes, master."
Wandong felt agonized for the Qingyun People.
Wu Qiujun went on sneering, "Are you happy now? Thanks to you, I can make twice the amount of money I used to from the raw stones now. Haha...And, aren't you going to save this lad? I won't give him to you alive. What are your to-dos?"
"Goddamned old dog!" Leng Yuecui gritted her teeth tightly with fury. She had never met anyone as hellish as Wu Qiujun in her life.
