Chapter 258: Chapter 251: The Jiu Jue Family, The Auction BeginsHe wished he could prostrate himself before Master Bai to be taught daily and serve by his side forever! That statement was suffused with Master Chen’s reverence and respect for Bai Yan! Apart from one’s own mentors, how many could cause proud martial artists to lower their arrogant heads and lay down their pride? It was out of bone-deep respect that a martial artist displayed! Bai Yan could only respond with a wry smile and console Master Chen, coaxing him until he finally agreed to call him Mr. Bai, no longer referring to him with the title of Master. The surrounding crowd had long been shocked to the point of complete numbness. Who said Goddess Li was the focus of tonight’s banquet? The true focus of tonight’s banquet is Mr. Bai! As Goddess Li’s boyfriend, he boldly humiliated Ma Mubo, and even the renowned Master Chen referred to him as Master Bai! One after another, these events left the audience immersed in the shock that Bai Yan had brought upon them! Who exactly is this Mr. Bai? The attendees were internally screaming with curiosity; they were dying to know Bai Yan’s true identity! What kind of person could elicit such deeds from Mr. Bai, exactly how sacred is he? No matter how curious people were, neither Bai Yan nor Li Xiaoman would divulge any further information about Bai Yan. Guesses about Bai Yan’s identity could only circulate among the banquet attendees. At the other end of the banquet. "Brother Ma, Master Chen actually called that kid ’Master Bai’!" Young Master Yang said with some shock. Ma Mubo chuckled lightly, elegantly swirling the red wine in his glass, nonchalantly saying: "An out-of-favor Qigong master and a little mouse too afraid to reveal its identity. They are not worth our excessive attention." Indeed, in the eyes of Ma Mubo, an A+ grade abnormal, so-called Master Chen’s strength was a mere C+ grade and indeed not worthy of his notice. As for Bai Yan, he had even less esteem for him. If it weren’t inappropriate to cause a scene at the banquet, Ma Mubo would have already dealt a merciless blow to Bai Yan, this arrogant and conceited youth! "Yes, I’ll listen to Brother Ma!" Young Master Yang whispered, "Brother Ma, when do we take a lesson to that kid?" "Teach him a lesson? No rush." Ma Mubo sipped his wine, his eyes sparkling with a sly smile: "A mere Bai Yan, no need to rush, the priority right now is to get Li Xiaoman, as long as I get the drug formula from Wanyan Company, then take our time dealing with these two dogs!" "Heh heh, then at that time... could Brother Ma possibly..." Young Master Yang smirked obsequiously, his smile full of lewdness. "Relax, as long as I have had the first taste, you’ll definitely get your share!" Ma Mubo laughed heartily. "I knew it, following Brother Ma is the most promising!" Young Master Yang snickered, madly flattering Ma Mubo. Ma Mubo narrowed his eyes, somewhat enjoying Young Master Yang’s flattery. At this moment, the banquet lights dimmed slightly, and the ZH city mayor stepped forward to the stage, holding a microphone to speak. "First of all, I would like to thank all the guests for coming and not shying away from the invitation to attend this charity evening in ZH city!" "This event aims to promote economic development within ZH city, providing a platform for communication and meetings, and will also hold a high-end auction event!" "Presumably everyone is aware of the content and rules of the auction, I need not introduce too much here... the auction will officially start in ten minutes, please take your seats in sequence~!" "One last word, I hope everyone can be generous tonight! Because every penny of yours will be donated to charity! I guarantee it with my official cap!" The mayor of ZH city, with a resolute face, spoke briefly, finishing his last sentence with a deep bow to everyone, then stepped down from the stage. A round of applause came in like a tide, and everyone took their seats as guided by the attendants. The banquet hall was already furnished with plenty of sofas and booths, ensuring a spot for everyone. The crowd around Li Xiaoman dispersed, and everyone returned to their seats, waiting for the auction to officially begin. After all, the auction was the main highlight of the evening! Each person had in their hands a list of auction items provided by the attendants; it was full of all sorts of treasures and collectibles, and everyone had their own bidding targets. Bai Yan led Li Xiaoman to a booth, with Master Chen following closely behind, mimicking his every move; he really looked like Bai Yan’s disciple. Bai Yan found this both amusing and irritating but since the seating was open, he could not very well ask others to leave. The only thing Bai Yan could do was let Master Chen follow him. There were only a few people in Bai Yan’s booth: Bai Yan, Li Xiaoman, and Master Chen. As for Master Chen’s direct disciples, they did not have the privilege to sit; they stood behind Master Chen uniformly, resembling bodyguards. The attendants distributed bidding paddles to everyone, and taking advantage of the time before the auction started, Master Chen shamelessly struck up a conversation with Bai Yan. Bai Yan didn’t have a bad impression of Master Chen; on the contrary, he found this old chap to be quite genuine, and they chatted intermittently. "Master Bai... Oh right! Look at my memory, Mr. Bai, do you know about the Abnormal People Organization?" Master Chen patted his head and whispered to Bai Yan, getting straight to the point. "Hmm, what about it? Master Chen, are you also a member of the Abnormal People Organization?" Bai Yan made no effort to conceal this matter, as he himself was indeed a member of the Abnormal People Organization in Zh city. "Mr. Bai, please don’t call me Master Chen, just Old Chen will do! To be honest with Mr. Bai, I am a native of ZH, and currently a C+ level member of the ZH city Abnormal People Organization. If I may be so bold to ask, what rank are you, Mr. Bai?" Master Chen said with a smile. What rank am I? I’m afraid if I tell you, you’ll be scared to death! Bai Yan’s S-rank status was leagues above C+ level! Bai Yan let out a chuckle and did not answer Master Chen’s question, "Tell me, what’s different about your ZH Abnormal People Organization?" Bai Yan took a sip of red wine and asked casually. "Well... The ZH Abnormal People Organization isn’t really that different, pretty much the same as other cities’ organizations within Huaxia, we are all under the governance of the Huaxia Abnormality Organization. However, if there has to be something different, it probably would be that in ZH we have the Nine Extremes Families!" Master Chen laughed nonchalantly, some pride seeping into his words. The Nine Extremes Families are a Huaxia civilian abnormal people’s signature! The nine major families have deep heritage and have all participated in the great war between Huaxia and foreign abnormal organizations twenty years ago. It could be said that in cities where the Nine Extremes Families reside, abnormal people are particularly proud, Master Chen being no exception. "Nine Extremes Families? Which family?" Bai Yan asked curiously, only aware that the Liu Family Martial Arts Sect in HZ city was one of the Nine Extremes Families, specializing in one of the Nine Extremes’ Flame Palm. "Ma Family Martial Arts! They possess one of Huaxia’s Nine Extremes, the Dragon Step!" Master Chen introduced to Bai Yan. "Ma Family Martial Arts? Dragon Step? ... Is Ma Mubo a member of Ma Family Martial Arts?" Sёarᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bai Yan inquired. "Replying to Mr. Bai, the Ma Group is the commercial power of Ma Family Martial Arts in the secular society, and Ma Mubo, young Master Ma, is the direct heir of Ma Family Martial Arts!" "Ma Mubo has astonishing talent, acclaimed as the number one among the young abnormal people in ZH! At a young age, he already boasted A+ level abnormal strength, and his inherited ultimate skills are demonic! There are even rumors that Ma Mubo almost triggered a reaction from the dragon lines with his Dragon Step, but alas, he was just one step short of becoming a master of dragon veins!" Master Chen mentioned with a tinge of pity. You see, becoming a master of dragon veins in the land of Huaxia Shen Zhou is an incredibly glorious affair! Bai Yan smiled with narrowed eyes. Almost a master of dragon veins? It looks like this Ma Mubo’s talent isn’t all that great after all!
