Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 267: Chapter 266, Room No. 9, the Tianzun Private Room?

President Nan waved off the concern with a smile and said, ”Old Wan, we’re all friends here, so I’m not afraid to tell you. If it were anyone else trying to negotiate with me, even if it were the Ten Great Families, unless it’s the Family Head of the Ten Great Families, I wouldn’t give them the time of day.”

President Wan was taken aback and curiously asked, ”Then today... this...?”

”But the person who’s here to negotiate today, let me put it this way to you...” President Nan leaned in close to President Wan and whispered, ”Even if it’s a Family Head of the Ten Great Families, unless it’s old masters like Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge, I bet they’d have to clear out a room.”

Everyone was stunned. The Family Heads of the Ten Great Families would have to vacate a room? What kind of international joke was this? In Pingnan Province, who could possibly wield such power? Could it be big shots like Numbers One, Two, or Three?

That couldn’t be right either. Numbers One, Two, or Three certainly wouldn’t compete with the Family Heads of the Ten Great Families for a room. Besides, those Family Heads were from the older generation; even Numbers One, Two, or Three would likely give them respect.

So, who on earth had such clout that they could make these Family Heads vacate a room?

”President Nan, you can’t be joking, right?” President Wan asked in a low voice, bewildered. ”How is that possible?”

”What’s so impossible about it!” President Nan retorted, ”In fact, I reckon that even Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge would vacate their room if that person requested it!”

”No way?” President Wan was dumbfounded. ”Even Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge would have to step aside? Who... who on earth could this be? Could it be some influential figure from Capital City? Good heavens, could Pingnan Province even attract such a figure?”

”Heh, you’re out of the loop. This isn’t some influential figure from Capital City!” President Nan shook his head and said, ”In fact, even a big shot from Capital City would at most be considered equal to Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge. How incredibly impactful those two are, who could possibly outshine them?”

”Then... who is it?” President Wan was completely baffled.

”Let’s save that discussion for later!” President Nan waved his hand dismissively: ”Come on, let’s all take a seat and start the meal. General Zhao has been waiting here for so long, my apologies!”

Dongzi was still in a state of confusion but hurriedly responded, feeling anxious, ”No... no worries, we’ve only just arrived ourselves...”

”Alright, everyone please sit!” President Nan suggested, smiling as he invited everyone to take their seats.

After the third round of drinks, Dongzi finally gathered some spirit, and the atmosphere among the guests grew warmer.

Xie Min was on edge the whole time, preoccupied with the matter of Su Yang downstairs. The Earth Respect Private Room, they had to go see it for themselves, otherwise once Su Yang and the others finished their meal and left, wouldn’t they miss the opportunity?

However, Dongzi hadn’t said anything, and she didn’t dare speak up. Although this woman wielded influence, she was also discerning and clearly understood that it wasn’t her place to speak out of turn under these circumstances.

Luckily, after a while, President Nan stood up first.

”Excuse me for a moment, I have some friends in the Tianzun Private Room; I need to go toast them,” President Nan said with a smile.

”The Tianzun Private Room?” Xie Min was shocked. But thinking about it, it made sense. It wasn’t strange for someone acquainted with President Nan to be in the Tianzun Private Room.

”President Nan, I’ll join you!” President Wan said, rising eagerly.

”That’s a good idea, I’ll introduce you to them!” President Nan chuckled and led President Wan away.

Seizing the opportunity, Xie Min immediately said to Dongzi, ”Hey, we better hurry down, or Auntie Wu and the others will be gone!”

Only then did Dongzi remember, and he quickly apologized to the others before rushing downstairs with Xie Min.

However, after searching the area, they couldn’t find the Earth Respect Private Room. In fact, none of the rooms downstairs had room numbers.

”They couldn’t have been toying with us, could they?” Xie Min frowned and said, ”Where is this so-called Earth Respect Private Room? There aren’t even any room numbers; they surely weren’t dining here. They must have made it up to save face!”
