Chapter 159 - 159 Haven’t Your Parents Taught You How to Behave? (2 more)
The plane slowly descended upon Xiangjiang International Airport.
As an international metropolis, although it had been caught up to by cities from the mainland in recent years, its heritage and momentum remained.
Once the plane landed, An Yan grew somewhat anxious and said, “Such a vast Xiangjiang, where do we even start looking?”
Xue An smiled, “First, give me your hand!”
An Yan obediently handed over her hand, and Xue An, grasping An Yan’s hand, closed his eyes.
He intended to use the bloodline connection between An Yan and An Qing to search.
This was also the most convenient method of searching.
Yet, a moment later, Xue An opened his eyes and slightly furrowed his brows.
“How is it?”
“Didn’t find her!”
An Yan couldn’t hide her disappointment.
Xue An smiled, “Don’t worry, although we didn’t find her, through the power of your bloodline, I could still sense An Qing’s presence. This means she is still alive, and living well at that!”
“Then why couldn’t we locate her?” An Yan was still uneasy.
Xue An glanced at the high-rises in the distant city center and said indifferently, “She must have been shielded by a secret technique, preventing us from detecting her consciousness. It seems that after operating here for over a century, your Ming Family has indeed established some influence!”
Xue An could tell at a glance that many of those skyscrapers were fortified with Feng Shui secret techniques.
Plainly put, the entire Xiangjiang had become a vast Feng Shui formation diagram due to the existence of these Feng Shui buildings.
For a noble family, this counted as quite an accomplishment!
But to Xue An, it was still far from sufficient!
In the Immortal Realm, those Feng Shui sects regularly used stars as the focal points of their formations, transforming the celestial star system into a grand formation diagram, its power so immense that no one dared to provoke them, save for the Immortal Venerable.
Just then, a rather arrogant and impolite voice sounded from behind.
“Hey, are you selling that necklace?”
Turning around, Xue An and company saw a well-dressed young woman looking impatiently at An Yan.
“Yes, I’m talking to you. I really like the necklace you’re wearing around your neck. Are you selling it?”
The necklace An Yan was wearing was the Sea Demon Blood Bead necklace given to her by Xue An.
Xue An raised an eyebrow and was about to speak when An Yan, with a gradually cooling expression, shook her head and said, “Not for sale!”
“I’ll offer one million!” The young woman arrogantly held up a finger.
In her view, Xue An and An Yan were dressed ordinarily and seemed not to be from wealthy families.
One million should be a significant sum for them.
Xue An shook his head with a calm tone, “If you desire it, you should know the value of this item. One million? Heh, I doubt…”
Xue An paused, his gaze growing colder, “Were you never taught by your parents how to behave?”
The young woman turned from pale to red and then from red to purple with indignation due to Xue An’s words.
“Then I’ll offer ten million, how about that? Will you sell it for ten million?”
Xue An grew somewhat impatient. This woman was wearing down his scant patience.
Just then, an elegant woman in her forties walked out from the airport terminal.
“Xiaoxiao, step aside!”
The woman shot Xue An a hateful glance and moved aside.
Approaching, the woman smiled slightly, “Sir, the child doesn’t know how to speak properly. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Xue An remained impassive, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Thereafter, the woman said, “However, this item of yours is very important to us. If you are willing to part with it, the Chang Family of Qizhou will surely express our deep gratitude.”
When she mentioned the Chang Family of Qizhou, a touch of pride flashed across her face.
To her surprise, Xue An showed no astonishment, as if he had never heard the name before.
The woman furrowed her brows slightly, just about to say something.
Song Yi ran out of the airport terminal, drenched in sweat.
“Mr. Xue, I am so sorry. When I was exiting the station, security insisted that my item was contraband, which caused a delay!”
Xue An nodded his head.
Just at that moment, the woman exclaimed in utter surprise, “You… Are you not Song Yi, Master Song?”
Song Yi turned his head to look at the woman, first taken aback, then nodded, “So it’s Chang Zhu, my junior sister. Have you also received an invitation from the Ming Family to attend the Feng Shui symposium?”
Chang Zhu was quite shocked at this moment.
The Chang Family of Qizhou was well-versed in Feng Shui, and could be considered a powerful entity.
Song Yi had once been a very famous Feng Shui Master in Zhongdu. Chang Zhu had seen him several times in the past and greatly admired his profound attainments in Feng Shui Numerology.
She didn’t expect that he would also come to the harbor city of Xiangjiang today.
And to see him showing such respect to this man.
Who exactly was this man?
Could he be the scion of a prominent family from Zhongdu?
Chang Zhu pondered in her heart.
Song Yi had already asked Xue An, “Mr. Xue, shall we head to the Ming Family’s place now?”
Xue An nodded his head, then cast a casual glance at Chang Zhu and the young girl, and turned away.
After they had gone some distance,
Chang Xiaoxiao approached with an unsatisfied tone, saying, “Master, why did you let him go? Didn’t you say that the pearl is a rare Sea Demon Blood Bead, which can greatly aid our Feng Shui cultivation?”
Chang Zhu shook her head with a serious expression, “That Song Yi is no ordinary person. I have seen him a few times before; back then, he was just an old man with white hair. I never imagined that in just a few years, he would have broken through to the Xiaoyao Realm and rejuvenated himself!”
“Although that man appeared ordinary in dress and demeanor, just like a common person, his status must be high, otherwise he wouldn’t command such respect from Song Yi. We’ll have to think of another way!”
Hearing this, Chang Xiaoxiao looked somewhat unconvinced, glancing at the distant figure of Xue An.
“They are also going to the Ming Family’s, which gives us the perfect opportunity to come up with a different plan!” Chang Zhu said, with a flash of greed in her eyes.
Meanwhile, in the car, Song Yi asked, “Mr. Xue, how do you know Chang Zhu and the others?”
“Know them?” Xue An shook his head and then proceeded to briefly recount what had happened.
After listening, Song Yi frowned slightly, “I’ve heard that the Chang Family of Qizhou is domineering in their actions. It’s true, it seems—they actually dare to bully and coerce? And they even found their way to Mr. Xue, truly bringing doom upon themselves!”
Xue An chuckled, “I generally don’t kill women, but my patience has its limits. If they keep bothering me, they can’t blame me for being impolite!”
Seeing Xue An’s smile, Song Yi shivered inwardly.
As someone who had known Xue An from the beginning, he was well aware of Xue An’s temperament.
This man took decisive action and was never burdened by material possessions.
No matter if you were from a famous family or a noble clan, he would kill without hesitation if it came to that, never showing mercy.
This time, after Song Yi received an invitation from the Ming Family, he felt that something was odd, so he rushed to Beijiang to meet Xue An.
Fortunately, Xue An hadn’t left yet. After explaining the situation, Xue An was also intrigued.
The invitation for Feng Shui experts from around the world to gather in Xiangjiang.
What exactly did the Ming Family want to do?
