Chapter 965 - A Revolutionary Product
“Greetings, Third Duke Xu!”
Master Xiao walked down the stairs and saw the middle-aged man first.
“Grandmaster Xiao!”
Third Duke Xu cupped his fists and greeted the old man respectfully.
“What’s the matter? Can’t we sit down and talk instead of fighting?” Grandmaster Xiao said with a smile.
Third Duke Xu said angrily, “Pardon us, Grandmaster Xiao, but that kid is too detestable. He hit our crown prince. How could we tolerate that?”
Grandmaster Xiao was stunned.
Hitting the crown prince of the Xu Kingdom was indeed quite excessive.
“Who is it? You sure have guts!”
“It’s that bastard!” Xu Tianxiang jumped out and said through gritted teeth before Third Duke Xu could reply.
“He insulted my country, and so I argued with him. He was the one who got physical first, Grandmaster Xiao, so he’s disrespecting you and your store! He ought to be driven out of Channel City and never let inside again.”
Grandmaster Xiao was angry when he heard that, but he was stunned when he turned his head to see who it was.
Xu Tianxiang did not notice the change in Grandmaster Xiao’s expression and continued to yell, “That kid is also a braggart, Grandmaster Xiao. He said that he’d buy all the pills here!”
Xu Tianxiang could not help but laugh as he said that.
However, Grandmaster Xiao did not laugh. “He really said that?” He said in a daze.
“Yes, everyone heard it! Isn’t that a big joke, Grandmaster? How can that country bumpkin have so much money? He’s clearly lying!” Xu Tianxiang continued to mock.
Grandmaster Xiao slapped his thigh and exclaimed, “That’s great!”
“Yeah! That’s great…” Xu Tianxiang echoed, but he was soon stunned. “Huh? What’s great about it?”
He turned his head and saw a scene that shocked him.
The honorable Grandmaster Xiao, a level three pill maker, greeted that kid warmly as though he were some big shot.
His jaw dropped, and his mind went blank.
The people from the Xu family and the onlookers were also confused.
Grandmaster Xiao did not treat Third Duke Xu that warmly. They could not understand why the grandmaster pill maker was so happy to see that kid.
Could that kid be some kind of big shot?
They had never seen him before!
They wondered if Grandmaster Xiao was mistaken.
“Long time no see, Brother Tang! Are you really going to buy all of them? That’s great! I’ll give you a twenty percent discount,” Grandmaster Xiao said.
“Tang?”
The people were stunned for a while before gasping in shock.
“Tang… could he be Tang Ritian?”
“That’s him! It can’t be wrong!”
Everyone exclaimed excitedly.
Tang Ritian was currently in the limelight. He was the one who ran the Southern Daily, and that made him the most popular person in the southern region.
He was the one who organized the grand press conference.
They regarded that young man differently. Earlier, they thought that he was dressed plainly. Now, they thought that he wanted to keep a low profile.
“I’ve long heard of Tang Ritian’s great name. Now that I’ve seen him, he’s indeed outstanding!”
“He has an extraordinary appearance. He’s destined for greatness!”
They heaped praises toward Tang Hao.
“Tang Ritian?”
Xu Tianxiang was stunned for a long time.
He could not believe that the plainly-dressed young man was actually Tang Ritian, who was incredibly wealthy and had superb pill-making skills.
Then, his expression darkened, and he seemed resentful.
He might be the crown prince of a kingdom, but he really could not afford to offend that person.
Third Duke Xu wiped his brow. He thought to himself that it was a close call. If not for Grandmaster Xiao’s timely appearance, he would have caused a huge disaster for his kingdom. If he beat that kid up, he might not be able to step out of Channel City.
“Haha! So you, Young Hero Tang! It’s all a misunderstanding!” He walked forward and laughed awkwardly.
“Master Tang, I’m the crown prince of the Lie Kingdom. Pleased to be of your acquaintance!”
A young man stepped out from the crowd and laughed heartily.
Tang Hao remembered meeting that guy at Rainbow Mountain. He was the one who discovered the elemental fire.
“You’re my idol, Brother Tang! I love you so much!” A fat man decked out in gold shouted as he squeezed through the crowd.
Tang Hao looked closely and recognized him as Jin Duoduo from the Jin Kingdom.
He looked like he was already good friends with Tang Hao, grabbing Tang Hao’s hand and greeting him warmly.
“Hey, Brother Tang, can you give me a hint about what the new product might be? The event is so grand, I can’t wait!”
“Ahem… you’ll know tomorrow!”
Tang Hao coughed in embarrassment.
He had robbed Jin Duoduo at Rainbow Mountain the last time they met.
Following that, many children of the royal families came to chat with Tang Hao. When Tang Hao noticed that he had robbed most of them at Rainbow Mountain, he could not help but feel even more embarrassed.
He did not reveal his true emotions as he started chatting and laughing with those people.
Meanwhile, the people from the Xu family left dejectedly.
The next day, tens of thousands of people gathered in the plaza at the center of Channel City, waiting for the start of the press conference.
Everyone was discussing it excitedly.
At noon, Taoist Master Qian Ji walked out and greeted the people around him. He smiled and said, “I am Qian Ji, the manager of Ritian Pavilion. I am honored that all of you are here today.”
“Hey! Get on with it! I can’t wait any longer!”
Someone in the audience shouted.
Taoist Master Qian Ji smiled and said, “Alright then, let’s skip the formalities!”
He paused for a while before continuing, “I’m not trying to brag, but this press conference will be an unforgettable experience. The product is revolutionary!”
As soon as he said that, the crowd burst into laughter.
“An unforgettable experience? Is it that amazing?”
“You’re exaggerating!”
The crowd was not convinced. They knew that Ritian Pavilion made good products, but to call it “unforgettable” was quite a bit of a stretch.
“Are you sure?”
Taoist Master Qian Ji smiled nonchalantly. He lifted his hands and clapped three times.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Upon the third clap, a beam of silver light shot out from Channel Mountain. It was flying as fast as lightning.
It flew around the city a few times, creating sonic booms that echoed in the sky.
“What’s that? Oh my god! It’s so fast!”
“What Artifact is it? It’s too fast!”
Everyone cried out in alarm.
The only adjective they could think of was “fast.”
The vehicle circled in the sky for three minutes before dashing toward the plaza and landing there.
Everyone could not take their eyes off it.
Their eyes were wide open, and they held their breaths.
The thing that appeared in front of them was too beautiful. Its streamlined appearance, cool features, and shiny silver body were simply mesmerizing.
They did not know what it was, but they were thoroughly convinced by its appearance.
The thing opened with a click, and a charming woman walked out. She was the third princess of the Yun Kingdom, the number one beauty of the southern region.
She leaned against the car and smiled at the audience.
