226 Receiving a Huge Deposit

“I’m Ge Youqian… My father, Ge Yue, is the president of the Lingjiang branch.” The young man smiled.

When Qin Huai heard this name, he looked at the young man’s face again. Only then did he realize that he seemed to have seen this person at the Fengxing Auction House.

“So it’s the young president. I’ve really been disrespectful!” Qin Huai hurriedly cupped his fists. “I wonder what Young Master is doing here since you’re up so early?”

Qin Huai did not let his guard down just because the other party had introduced himself.

“A few days ago, three bejeweled weapon masters went missing. Recently, I happened to learn that the Sacred Heart sect is wantonly plundering blacksmiths from all over the world to work for them. I was wondering if the two were related.

“Thus, I came here to search for clues. Who would have thought that I would actually encounter Brother Qin here.” Ge Youqian’s eyes were curved like crescents, and he spoke indifferently.

However, he looked at the treasured Silver Fox in Qin Huai’s hand, and his heart was like a huge wave. How could he not recognize something that his family had auctioned off?

The stone that contained the power of a sharp blade was definitely the spearhead of the spear in Qin Huai’s hand. Moreover, there were only a few bejeweled weapons in Lingjiang, and every single one of them had a name and was clearly known by the various large factions.

After all, this thing was a great killing weapon. A ninth refinement martial artist holding it was equivalent to half a bone pattern realm martial artist.

The silver spear in Qin Huai’s hand was definitely not something that had existed in Lingjiang before. The entire spear was new, without any signs of wear and tear.

In the past few days, almost everyone in the city had been searching for the whereabouts of the master liar. They all thought that the silver needle attack they had used at the auction was some kind of shameful trick.

Ge Youqian thought so too. But now…

He knew he was wrong. And it was ridiculously wrong.

Not only was the masked master not a fraud, but he was also very likely a genius who was not even twenty years old.

After all, a bejeweled weapon master could escape silently under the eyes of countless people, and then silently forge a bejeweled weapon and hand it to Qin Huai without anyone noticing… It was too difficult.

He knew that this Brother Qin was the center of attention both inside and outside the Nine Dragons sect. After all, Qin Huai’s sudden appearance of a weapon would definitely be questioned by many people.

If a weapon master really came into contact with it, it would be very difficult for him not to be discovered.

At this thought, the smile on Ge Youqian’s face became more sincere.

“What a coincidence.” The smile on Qin Huai’s face was exceptionally sincere. “Brother Ge, if you want to continue investigating, then go ahead. I’ll head back first.”

“Brother Qin, don’t be in such a hurry to leave. It was fate that we met. Moreover, we met on this mountain, within the range of September Hook… What a rare fate,” Ge Youqian said regretfully. “Why don’t we stay here and chat for a while?”

“What if I don’t want to talk?” Qin Huai gripped Silver Fox tightly.

“If you don’t want to talk, then we won’t talk.” Ge Youqian’s smile didn’t fade. “It’s getting late, so I’ll go back too. Brother Qin, do you mind if we travel together?” He changed his train of thought.

Qin Huai couldn’t figure out the other party’s intentions, but he also knew that he probably wouldn’t be able to shake him off.

“Since Brother Ge has already said so, if I were to refuse, wouldn’t I be giving Brother Ge too much face?”

Ge Youqian’s face lit up. “We’re all young people. There’s no need to care about face. They’re all thin and worthless.”

He quickly caught up and walked alongside Qin Huai. “I feel that Brother Qin looks very familiar, as if I’ve seen him before… Brother Qin, have you been to our Fengxing Auction House recently?” Ge Youqian asked.

“I went there with a younger brother.”

“Oh. No wonder the long spear on Brother Qin’s back is so beautiful. It matches Brother Qin’s aura very well,” Ge Youqian complimented.

“I think so too. It’s all thanks to my forging friend who helped me forge such a handy weapon.” Qin Huai was filled with gratitude.

‘As if I would believe you! This is a bejeweled weapon, not some thousand-forged steel, a sword or spear that came out of an ordinary earthen furnace. If he really has a so-called master friend, how could he not show up?’

At this critical juncture, the bejeweled weapon master would become a distinguished guest of the three forces and the favorite of Lingjiang county. Endless wealth and glory were waiting for him. Even the Sacred Heart sect would have to serve him well.

However, he chose to conceal his identity, like a stone sinking into the sea.

What could be the reason? He must have made many enemies and did not dare to expose himself easily. Otherwise, he would be killed.

Qin Huai’s identity perfectly matched this condition.

Ge Youqian cursed in his heart, but he still said, “Is that so? I wonder if Brother Qin can tell me the address of that friend. I would like to pay him a visit. It just so happens that there are a few things that I want to be forged recently… Money is not a problem!”

When he said the last half of his sentence, his voice became much louder.

Before Qin Huai could say anything, he took out a gold note worth thousands of gold coins from his pocket. “This is the deposit I’ll pay in advance. Brother Qin, you must help me ask around.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a gold note worth a thousand gold coins and handed it to Qin Huai.

“This is the money for the wine Brother Qin helped us with,” Ge Youqian said sincerely. “To be honest, the first time I saw Brother Qin today, it reminded me of a childhood friend I knew very well. I feel very close to him.”

Qin Huai looked at the two gold notes in his hands and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

He had killed three Sacred Heart disciples earlier, but he had not even gotten this much money.
