Chapter 566 - The Dog’s a Big Spender!

After holding it in for a long while, Mo Xun finally managed to squeeze out his words. “Forget... forget it...”

Mo Xun didn’t care, but that didn’t mean the attendant was off the hook. Steward Xin’s attitude toward him and Mo Xun was like night and day.

He casually waved his hand. “You blind fool! You will be punished for offending our honored guest! From now on, you’re expelled from the Lingyun Merchant Association and Lingyun City! Record your identity information. You are forbidden from taking a single step inside the city for the rest of your life!”

The attendant’s face turned ashen. Even though he was just an attendant here, he got treated better than many disciples from third-rate forces. Those words were no different from casting him from the mountain peak down into the abyss.

The old man addressed Gu Han with the utmost respect, “Honored guest, are you satisfied with this punishment?”

He could tell that among these people, Gu Han was the real leader. If a single spirit pet was this wealthy, how much more so its master? So he became even more humble.

Gu Han asked in return, “What about the token?”

Steward Xin was shrewd beyond measure and understood that Gu Han was backing Mo Xun up.

He waved his hand and immediately shouted, “Bring a green token for this honored guest first! Since it’s difficult to appraise the value of the items in this storage ring, I can only give you a green token. As for the exact points, please give me some time. Please do not take offense!”

His eyesight was excellent. Although he couldn’t accurately determine the value of the items in the storage ring, a green token was a sure thing.

Everyone was dumbstruck again. What?! You’d need at least a hundred thousand points to have a green token! Something that came out of the dog’s mouth is worth this much? Then its master must be...

For a moment, the way everyone looked at Gu Han changed. Once he spent freely, even his ordinary, completely unremarkable bearing seemed extraordinarily different.

Then, a beautiful maid with a delicate figure came to Mo Xun’s side. With a bow, she respectfully presented a green token. Her voice was soft and sweet. “Honored guest, this is your token.”

Mo Xun had never experienced such a scene before. He didn’t even dare look at her, trembling as he accepted the token. “T-thank you!”

In his carelessness, he even grabbed her small hand. It felt delicate to the touch. He froze, then snatched his hand back as if electrocuted. He quickly apologized in panic, “S-sorry! I-I didn’t mean to...”

The maid was even more panicked than Mo Xun, blushing fiercely. “No, no! I’m just a lowly maid. Honored guest, just call me Xiao Rou.”

To her, even the owner of a black token had the power of life and death over her. Never mind touching her hand, even if they went further, she wouldn’t dare resist in the slightest.

She secretly glanced at Mo Xun, then stuffed the token into his hand. Following that, she took the old man’s storage ring to have someone appraise its exact value.

Gu Han couldn’t bear to watch as he thought to himself. Mo Chenyin was such an unparalleled beauty. Why did the Mo Clan’s descendants have to give birth to such an embarrassment?!

Steward Xin looked at Gu Han again. “Any other instructions?”

Unlike Mo Xun, this kind of scene was just a light drizzle to Gu Han. He glanced at the young man from earlier and chuckled. “What grade is your token? Let me have a look.”

The young man’s face flushed red, but he couldn’t refute a single word. “I...”

He did have a token, but it was only black. Taking it out would only be humiliating.

Gu Han saw through him at a glance and smiled mockingly. “Black? I’m a bit of a country bumpkin, so I can’t quite figure it out. Which is rarer, a black token or a green token?”

Steward Xin turned serious. “The Lingyun Merchant Association has only given out a hundred or so green tokens in total. Of course they are rarer.”

“And black?”

“Over a thousand!”

Their back-and-forth landed on the young man’s face like a series of vicious slaps. Xiao Hei smugly strutted before the young man, leaving a row of clearly visible paw prints. It then barked provocatively.

Steward Xin kindly translated, “Poor bastard, scram!”

The young man clenched his fists, wishing he could die of shame. He could barely accept being humiliated by a person, but being humiliated and called names by a dog? If word got out, his entire clan would lose all face!

At that moment, another middle-aged man stepped forward and said coldly, “How cocky! There’s always a higher mountain, a higher sky. A green token is nothing special. As it happens, I also have one!”

As he spoke, he flipped his hand, and a green token appeared in his palm.

He gazed at Gu Han coldly. “You see, the Tiannan Realm is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Many just keep a low profile! That’s no reason for you to be arrogant!”

Gu Han sighed. “Xiao Hei, they’re mocking us for being poor.”

Xiao Hei acted as if it had suffered a colossal insult, barking even more fiercely. Then, it opened its mouth and spat, and two more storage rings covered in drool appeared before Steward Xin.

Same as before, Steward Xin didn’t care at all about the drool. He picked them up and glanced at them. He trembled as his expression changed dramatically, becoming incomparably excited. “Xiao Rou! Quick! Quick... Silver! Yes, silver token...”

Everyone was completely dumbfounded. The dog’s a big spender!

Gu Han glanced at the middle-aged man and chuckled. “Low profile? Hidden dragons and crouching tigers? From what I see, the Tiannan Realm is full of nothing but a bunch of bullies who fear the strong and bully the weak. All arrogant and domineering clowns!”

The middle-aged man stiffened. He only felt the green token in his hand was burning hot, and his face stung sharply. This time, the dog had slapped not just him, but the entire Tiannan Realm! After all, the Lingyun Merchant Association had only ever given out thirty or so silver tokens. Those people all had special personal stewards provided by the Lingyun Merchant Association and rarely showed themselves here.

That was why Steward Xin was so excited. Xiao Hei was a guest he had taken on, so he had a very high chance of becoming the dog’s personal steward. The benefits were immense. As for the issue of being a personal steward to a dog, it wasn’t serious because making money wasn’t shameful!

Xiao Hei barked especially happily. It felt that it had been narrow-minded before. Using money to crush people felt ten times more satisfying than swallowing them in one bite.

In a great mood, it stamped its paw prints all over the smooth, white jade floor. Even if Chongming hadn’t stopped it, it would have even had the urge to lift its leg and leave a special mark here.

Just as it was running wild and causing a ruckus, someone’s voice, as clear and melodious as a spring, reached everyone’s ears. “This little dog is so cute!”

Following the voice, everyone looked over, and then were dumbstruck again.

How beautiful...
