Eternal Sword Monarch

0Of course this young man knew what Jade Scallop were. It was precisely because he knew about this that he was so shocked.    

    

This was the most precious currency in the world.    

    

It was produced by Super Sect and all the major sects in the world. It was backed by a unique position. As long as his One Origin Sect did not fall, it was always kept safe!    

    

This was the currency used by the Aristocratic Sect to exchange for Peerless Weapon s and even top-grade pill s. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a strategic resource!    

    

Compared to the Jade Scallop, gold and silver was like iron and stone!    

    

Using a Jade Scallop, don't even talk about eating a meal here. Even if he wanted to stay here for a year, he was willing to!    

    

To put it bluntly, Jiang Tong Lou was just a moneymaking machine under the command of a big power. He was just a head storekeeper, and he was well-known for his influence. However, he was still just an ordinary worker in the government. However, he was very clear about the status of Jade Scallop!    

    

However, it was precisely because of this that he was so shocked. Someone actually brought Jade Scallop s to eat?!    

    

Was this brat clear about the value of Jade Scallop?    

    

Even if it was the One Origin Sect, he was afraid that they would not do such a crazy thing!    

    

But, he could take out Jade Scallop s. This represented the supreme status! No matter how grand the Jiangtong Building was, it was still just a tavern. How could a mere manager like himself compare to a single finger of the other party!    

    

Xia Ling obviously knew the value of Jade Scallop, but he couldn't do anything about it. After all, he did not have gold and silver, only Jade Scallop. However, Xia Ling didn't feel that the Jade Scallop was hard to come by.    

    

He, a pill, had auctioned more than three hundred Jade Scallop and a handful of Peerless Weapon at the Pill Assembly. What's wrong with eating? If it's gone, then go and earn more!    

    

"Alright, if there's nothing else, please leave. Just one person will do." Xia Ling's voice was still a little impatient.    

    

"... I'm not used to having so many people around when I'm having dinner myself. "    

    

"Alright, understood, customer." The young man's voice also became truly respectful. He knew very well that a character at his level could not even be mentioned in the same breath as someone who could take out a Jade Scallop.    

    

"I wish you a pleasant meal." He bowed deeply and lowered his body.    

    

Liu Xiaolai, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded.    

    

Her head was still a paste. What happened? Was the gift that the little brother gave to the head storekeeper valuable? Why did the head storekeeper's attitude change 180 degrees?    

    

Could it be that he … Very rich?    

    

It didn't look like it either.    

    

Before leaving, the young man gave Liu Xiaolai a glance. He signaled her to wait on him. His expression was rather solemn.    

    

This made the young girl slightly nervous.    

    

However, Xia Ling didn't need her to do too much service. However, during the meal, he would ask her some questions.    

    

"How long have you been working here?" Xia Ling asked leisurely.    

    

"I've worked here for less than a month." Liu Xiaolai answered carefully.    

    

Xia Ling smiled and said, "You don't have to be too nervous. I'm just asking you some questions. "It's fine if you don't know."    

    

"... But if you've only been here a month, you probably don't know. "    

    

Liu Xiaolai also gradually relaxed after hearing Xia Ling's words. She said, "It's alright. Just ask me. Maybe I know something about it."    

    

Xia Ling nodded. Since that was the case, he wouldn't lose anything by asking.    

    

"Was there a girl called Xia Yanning here half a year ago?"    

    

Indeed, his purpose in coming here was to find out more about Xia Yanning.    

    

Pingxing City could be said to be the only way to get from Southern Region to Middle North, as long as the young miss didn't deliberately take a detour. It must pass through here.    

    

If he wanted to find out more, wouldn't it be normal to come to the restaurant?    

    

However, Xia Ling realized later. The Jiangtong Building that he had come to was too high-end. If it was a normal single passenger, he would definitely not be staying here.    

    

Sure enough, Liu Xiaolai shook her head. I'm sorry, I really haven't heard that name before. "    

    

Charlene nodded. However, Liu Xiaolai added on.    

    

"... If there is a portrait, can you show it to me? "    

    

Xia Yanru had given him a portrait the day before they had parted. Even Xia Ling couldn't help but exclaim at the vividness of that portrait.    

    

He took out a scroll from his bosom, opened it, and placed it in front of Liu Xiaolai.    

    

On the painting was a young girl with a stern expression. She looked slightly older than Xia Yanru, and her facial features were similar. However, she was still only around twenty years old. The young girl had a tall and slender figure with a slender waist. Her face was especially delicate. She was an extremely beautiful person. However, the expression on his face and most importantly, his eyes were like icebergs in the freezing sky. A cold, arrogant aura emanated from him.    

    

When Xia Ling saw it for the first time, he couldn't believe it. There was such a huge difference in the temperament of two sisters who shared the same father and mother.    

    

Although they were equally beautiful, one was gentle while the other was swift and fierce.    

    

He didn't expect Liu Xiaolai to recognize Xia Yanning, but this maid unexpectedly let out an obvious "hmm".    

    

"What," Xia Ling immediately became spirited, "You've seen her before?"    

    

Liu Xiaolai said in a similar manner, "This was half a year ago... "The one from half a year ago …"    

    

Half a year ago? Xia Ling made up his mind. That was the time! According to Second Miss, Xia Yanning had left the Ningnan City at that time!    

    

Liu Xiaolai continued, "... That female hero who passed by my house! "    

    

Female hero?    

    

The maid explained with gratitude: "That day when father went to the market and sold out, he accidentally provoked the local gangsters and was injured by them. Thank you, female hero, for your help. Otherwise, we would have been in deep trouble! "    

    

"And after that?" Xia Ling asked impatiently. Where did this girl go after that? "    

0

    

He really did not expect that Liu Xiaolai had actually seen Xia Yanning before!    

    

Originally, Xia Ling had planned to spend a few more days in Ping Xing City. Who would have thought that they would find out where he was after less than half a day!    

    

Liu Xiaolai looked embarrassed as she said, "I'm sorry, customer. I really don't know about this. After all, after saving our family, the female hero left very quickly. "    

    

Xia Ling sighed softly. That's right, how could a person who he had only met once know his whereabouts clearly?    

    

"However..." Liu Xiaolai said hesitantly.    

    

Xia Ling's ears instantly pricked up.    

    

"... She had said then that she might go … The Wei Family Village outside Pingxing City right? "    

    

Wei Family Village? Xia Ling frowned in confusion.    

    

Seeing this, Liu Xiaolai immediately explained.    

    

"Wei Family Village is one of the larger villages on the outskirts of Pingxin City, and there is even our own merchant guild. The developments in recent years have also been very good. "    

    

"... At that time, half a year ago, I remember that it just so happened to be at the time Wei Family Village was causing trouble. "
