C2934 The High Ground of Reason
He wasn't sure if the other party had said these words out of true feelings or just out of courtesy.
But after thinking about it for a while, Chen Xiao still shook his head and said, "That's not necessary. Third Elder must be a busy person. I won't be staying for long. Goodbye."
After saying that, he completely ignored the Third Elder's urging and quickly pushed open the door and left.
Seeing this, Third Elder could not say anything more. He could tell that the other party was very cold and aloof. He didn't want to have any deep connections with him, or rather, with Whale Island. This made him feel a little helpless.
When they arrived at the door, he and the guards could only silently watch Chen Xiao leave. For a moment, they were actually somewhat speechless.
After a moment of silence, the guard suddenly spoke, "Third Elder, should we send someone to follow and monitor this Qin Feng? If this man wants to cause some trouble, wouldn't it be a waste?"
Upon hearing his subordinate's words, the Third Elder, who was in a good mood just a moment ago, instantly became angry and started cursing.
"Stupid pig, only a pig brain like you can think of such a thing. You are really courting death."
The Third Elder, who was enraged, could no longer hold it in. He raised his hand and slapped his subordinate's head.
Slap!
An incomparably clear sound could be heard. His subordinate fell to the ground in a miserable and ugly manner. His head was bleeding and his face was covered in blood. He hurriedly lied on the ground and did not dare to say another word. He looked extremely miserable.
However, the Third Elder did not care about that. Instead, he said fiercely, "It's because there are too many stupid pigs like you that Manager Mo dared to go there. Do you really think that the matter is not big enough? Didn't you see that even I have to be polite to this person? You dare to spy on him? This is really infuriating! I'm angering laozi to death."
From his point of view, the compensation of a hundred Immortal jades was already considered to be over. There was no need to continue pestering him. It would be best if he didn't provoke the other party. This was the best outcome.
Everyone would mind their own business and wouldn't offend each other.
However, this subordinate still had the guts to continue angering and provoking the other party, and even wanted to monitor and follow him. If this wasn't courting death, then what else could it be? He simply didn't have any brains at all.
It was no wonder that the Third Elder was so angry.
"Get lost, get lost, get lost. Don't let laozi see you again." The Third Elder said snappily and casually waved his hand.
His injured subordinate, who was bleeding profusely, did not dare to say anything. He hurriedly retreated and did not dare to make a sound.
Seeing this, the Third Elder calmed down and returned to his seat. He began to think quickly in his heart.
Just now, he had used his money to avoid disaster. There was one thing he knew. If the other party really dared to force him, it wouldn't be difficult to cripple him.
If they really fell out, the first one to suffer the most injuries would definitely be him.
Since they already wanted to settle the matter peacefully, they might as well take one step at a time and not continue to monitor and follow him. In that case, all their previous efforts would be in vain. That would be the stupidest method.
Now, the Third Elder's method was equivalent to being courteous before attacking.
First, he gave Chen Xiao a very good treatment, and even gave Chen Xiao a hundred Immortal jades to buy him a favorable impression. The next step would be to settle the matter peacefully. If Chen Xiao still wanted to continue causing trouble... Next, the Whale Island Sect would have an excuse to kill him with lightning speed. If he was eliminated, he wouldn't attract any criticism.
On the contrary, the public opinion and reputation would completely fall on the Whale Island's side. It could be said that Chen Xiao didn't know what was good for him and did whatever he wanted.
In this way, he would gain the upper hand of reason.
The Third Elder could be considered an experienced person. He had experienced too many things. He was extremely familiar with this little trick.
If there really was a time like this, then he wouldn't be the only one to take action. It would be the two island lords and the other elders attacking together. They had to take him down.
That subordinate didn't think of this at all, so he was naturally taught a lesson. He deserved it.
On the other side, Chen Xiao swaggered away from the Whale Trading Company. He didn't stay any longer and returned to his cave dwelling.
After returning to his cave dwelling, Xiaolong and Yue Yao immediately greeted him and looked at him with concern.
"Master, are you alright? Why didn't you let us go just now? What exactly happened? You actually started a fight with the people of the Whale Trading Company? Why? Why don't the two of us attack together and destroy them? Hmph." The little dragon said with killing intent.
On the other hand, Yue Yao finally heaved a huge sigh of relief and said with concern," Husband, you haven't suffered any injuries, right? Come, quickly go in and sit down. "
Hence, the three of them returned to the room and sat down one by one.
Chen Xiao looked at the two of them and smiled faintly. He said, "Of course I'm not injured, and you don't have to worry too much about me. If there really is a problem, and I'm no match for them... I'll definitely call you guys over to help, not stay here... I still have a sense of propriety. "
Chen Xiao comforted them with words of comfort, and only then did the two of them feel slightly relieved.
However, the little dragon still did not completely relax. He continued to ask and said, "Master, what exactly happened? Tell us about it so that we can be a little prepared."
"That's right, husband, what exactly happened?" Even Yue Yao could not help but ask.
Chen Xiao thought for a while and decided to tell them everything without hiding anything. Immediately, he told them everything that had happened.
After listening to everything that had happened, Yue Yao's expression became more and more worried and scared. She said, "Husband, I'm afraid this matter won't be resolved so easily. If the two island masters of Whale Fish Island really bear a grudge because of this, I'm afraid that we won't be so safe if we continue to stay on Whale Fish Island."
Hearing Yue Yao say this, Xiaolong nodded in agreement. He said, "That's right. Sister Yue Yao's words are very reasonable. Only heaven knows how you dare to take the treasure for yourself against Master this time. He did not know whether it was a simple accident or a premeditated plan. In short, this Whale Island isn't a place to stay for long. Let's leave as soon as possible. "
After listening to their thoughts and opinions, Chen Xiao fell into deep thought. This was a problem that he had to consider carefully.
