The woman hated how humiliating it was as she glared at the closed door: “Big brother, Second brother, why should we wait here? How can we deserve to be treated this way?”
“It’s because the sword is now in the hands of others.” The man who knocked on the door just replied lightly.
“Big brother…”
“That’s enough. Think about the master’s order. If we can’t take the sword back, do you want to be punished?” Another man who had been quiet, interrupted the woman impatiently, with a look of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
The woman’s expression changed, she looked at her second brother, dissatisfied: “I just said one sentence.”
When Ning Meng Yao heard that someone was going to meet them outside, she was a little puzzled: “They want to meet us? I don’t think we know anyone here?”
“Must’ve been from the auction house.” Qiao Tian Chang set his sword aside, recalling casually.
Ning Meng Yao hesitated, then later she understood that they must be the other bidder for the sword. But she was a little curious about what they were doing here.
“Let them in.”
Nan Yu returned to the door, opened it and glanced at them: “My sister-in-law invites you.”
The three of them exchanged glances and followed behind Nan Yu. The house was not so luxurious, it made them wonder if this was just a temporary place for them to stay.
When they met Ning Meng Yao and the rest, Ning Meng Yao had already put away the two swords. She even placed a lot of food on the stone table.
“Is there any reason why you’re looking for us?” Ning Meng Yao asked directly while the two men were still thinking about what to say.
The two men were shocked. The man in a navy blue robe looked at Ning Meng Yao, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, he spoke: “Good day, my name is Feng Yuan. This is my brother and sister. We are here for the Snowfall Sword.”
Qiao Tian Chang glanced ironically at the man who claimed to be Feng Yuan. Ning Meng Yao looked down at Qiao Tian Chang’s hand. Her slender fingers played in his hands: “And?”
“I hope the both of you could give it to us. As long as the two of you are willing to give us the Snowfall Sword, we will agree to whatever conditions.” Feng Yuan smiled as he looked at Ning Meng Yao.
Feng Yuan’s sister felt disgusted by her brother’s dazzling smile. She looked at her brother indignantly and gritted her teeth: “Why do you want to be inferior to this woman, brother? We are the apprentice of Qinglin Sect, it is good enough of us to just ask her to give us the sword.”
The woman’s proud and unreasonable words made Qiao Tian Chang and his wife’s gloomy in an instant, especially Ning Meng Yao. She was staring coldly at the all righteous woman.
She let go of Qiao Tian Chang’s hand and took out the Junluo Sword. A sense of pride flashed on the woman’s face when she saw Ning Meng Yao taking the sword out. So what if this woman had a lot of money? She had offered the sword with both hands after hearing that they were from Qinglin Sect.
Ning Meng Yao looked at the sword in her hands, and smiled: “It is indeed a good sword, but why should I give it to you? Just because you’re the apprentice of Qinglin Sect? If you have wanted the sword, you should have competed with me in the auction house. Now that the sword is in my hands, you guys think just because you’re from some unfamiliar group, you could take away this heavenly-priced sword from my hands without spending a penny? How thick-skinned are you guys?”
If they could not realize the irony within Ning Meng Yao’s words, then they were really thick-skinned.
Feng Yuan glared at his sister who wanted to speak, then looked at Ning Meng Yao and explained: “This sword is very important to us.”
“So what?” Ning Meng Yao waved impatiently.
The woman could not withstand Ning Meng Yao’s proud act, she gritted her teeth angrily: “We gave you a chance, yet you don’t appreciate it.”
“I should be the one telling you this. I am giving you a chance, but you don’t appreciate it. Who do you think you are? Qinglin Sect? So what?” Ning Meng Yao didn’t put the Qinglin Sect in her eyes at all. It was not because she was part of Tong Bao Zhai, the Qinglin Sect could not even offend Yulin Mountain Villa.
“You…” The woman felt so degraded by Ning Meng Yao, her face turned pale. It was so ugly, almost as if a pig liver had been left outside for a long time.
“If you three are here for the sword, then I suggest that you don’t have to come here ever again.”
