Chapter 996 - Liu Feng's Stand (2)

The guards carried him out of the Artificer Association and into the street. Then, they found a spacious, crowded place to put him down…

"Miss Leng, is this place okay?" the butler said very respectfully. Now, he didn't dare to be disrespectful to Leng Ruoxue at all! Boohoo… If he had known that those people had such a powerful background, he wouldn't have dared to make a move even if he had ten guts!

"Okay." Leng Ruoxue nodded in satisfaction, then instructed the butler to call more people over.

"Yes!" The butler took the order and left.

"What do you want?" Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Di Ren took the initiative to ask Leng Ruoxue.

"Nothing! I just want you to earn money and repay your debt as soon as possible." Leng Ruoxue chuckled.

"Then why did you get me out on the street? I'm still a sick man!" said Di, slightly aggrieved.

"What does your illness have to do with me?" Leng Ruoxue chuckled with a disapproving expression.

"You…" Di Ren was furious. He kept breathing heavily again.

"Calm down, don't get angry, and don't faint. You have to refine more weapons for me later!" Leng Ruoxue reminded.

At the same time, Leng Ruoxue saw that most of the people around her were here, so she calmly announced an important piece of news. "Everyone, from today onwards, the price of refining weapons for everyone will be 30% off. So, if any of you want to refine weapons, you have to hurry up. Of course, you can make an appointment in advance! In short, don't let go of this good opportunity!"

"Really?"

"How could such a good thing happen?"

"It's not a lie, is it?"

As soon as Leng Ruoxue finished speaking, the onlookers started discussing. Among these people, there were artifact masters and representatives of the various families who came to participate in the artifact master competition. However, they were obviously suspicious of what Leng Ruoxue said.

"Everyone, of course it's true. Because His Excellency Di Ren owes a huge debt, he had no choice but to do this. I hope that if anyone wants to refine weapons, remember to come to him!" Leng Ruoxue reminded with a smile.

"Everyone can start making appointments now. It's only for a month. This is a rare opportunity!" Leng Ruoxue added.

"I want to make an appointment. I don't know where to sign up," someone in the crowd suddenly asked.

"Sign up with this guard." Leng Ruoxue pointed at a guard.

"Just give my little beast the deposit." Leng Ruoxue pointed at the baby in her arms and took out a recliner for the baby to sit on.

"Yes, yes. Sign up at his place first, and then come to me to pay," Darling said excitedly. Hehe! It liked collecting money the most. Besides, it was collecting money for its own family.

As soon as Darling finished speaking, someone went to the guards to register. Once someone took the lead in such a matter, the enthusiasm of the others would also be aroused…

In just a moment, the people who wanted to make an appointment to refine weapons had surrounded the guards. As for Darling, its mouth was agape as it accepted wads of cash.

"I really didn't expect you to be so popular!" Leng Ruoxue looked at Di Ren, who was so angry that he couldn't speak, and teased him softly.

Di Ren opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. He could only stare.

"Don't glare at me. I'm scared." Leng Ruoxue smiled evilly.

At this moment, a middle-aged man who had just signed up and paid the deposit came to Leng Ruoxue and Di Ren and asked politely, "I wonder when I can get the equipment I want."

"That depends on His Excellency Di Ren's efficiency. However, as long as the materials you prepared are complete, Sir Di Ren will definitely not disappoint you," Leng Ruoxue comforted.

"Hehe! Of course I know His Excellency Di Ren's strength. I'll wait in Flame City then." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he bowed slightly and turned to leave.

It was not until noon that the enthusiasm of those who wanted to make an appointment to refine weapons faded a little.

After hearing Darling's report on the amount of deposit made, Leng Ruoxue couldn't help but be a little speechless. The fees of this Artificer was so expensive! Even though she only received a deposit, it was nearly a million superior-grade crystals. It was really too shady! No wonder people said that artificers and alchemists couldn't be offended.

However, Leng Ruoxue was in an exceptionally good mood to receive so much deposit, so her attitude towards Di Ren was naturally much better. When she carried him back to the Artificer Association, she specially instructed the butler to find a stretcher.

After returning to the Artificer Association.

Leng Ruoxue brought Di Ren to the refining room that was temporarily built for him and wrote down the details of the person who made the appointment for him. She reminded him to do as he pleased and then left.

In the President's office of the Artificer Association.

President Lu looked at Yao Yuan, who was sitting opposite him, with a worried expression. His heart was in a mess. Boohoo… he was done for! He had actually chased Mo Yan's disciple out of Flame City and even announced that no artificer was allowed to refine weapons for them in the future.

Ever since he found out the identities of those people, he knew that he had made a fool of himself. If Mo Yan knew about this, he would probably not let him off. That was why he came to discuss countermeasures with Yao Yuan. However, seeing Yao Yuan's indifferent attitude, his heart turned cold.

"President, you have to help me!" President Lu said anxiously. He was not like Yao Yuan, who had someone backing him up. Yao Yuan was the one who had raised him to where he was today. Therefore, if anything happened, he naturally hoped that Yao Yuan could protect him!

"This matter… there's nothing I can do!" Yao Yuan said with a headache. President Lu was his subordinate. If he could help him, why would he not? Unfortunately, he could not even protect himself now. How could he care about others!

"President!" President Lu refused to give up and continued to beg.

"Let me be alone! Or you can go straight to Miss Leng and admit your mistake. Perhaps she will be lenient," Yao Yuan suggested.

"In that case, I'll go find Miss Leng!" President Lu said helplessly.

"By the way, have you found the whereabouts of Leng Xiaoyu and the others?" Yao Yuan asked again.

"Not yet. They seem to have vanished into thin air. The people I sent couldn't find them at all," President Lu replied, looking slightly disappointed.
