Chapter 2344: Chapter 2342: Shamelessness

"This is one thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. Can we go in to迎亲 now?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"What? That’s impossible! With your net worth, how could you possibly still take out another thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones?" Old Guan shouted in disbelief.

"Can we go in now?" Zhang Xiaohao exhaled a puff of smoke, his gaze turning a bit cold.

"Hmph! What’s the rush to get in? I’ll first check whether these Spirit Stones are real or not." Old Guan said coldly.

With a wave of his right hand, a house servant stepped up and handed over a sack.

Taking the sack, Old Guan started checking the stones one by one.

A quarter-hour later.

All the lower-grade Spirit Stones had been counted once, and each had been inspected by him.

"They’re actually all real. Where did that Zhu brat get one thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones? Wasn’t it said that his entire net worth added up to only a bit over three hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones? He’s already handed over a thousand, and now he’s taken out another thousand! Did he go rob someone?" Old Guan wondered suspiciously in his heart.

"Put these things away!" Old Guan ordered.

Two house servants immediately came over and carried the entire sack of lower-grade Spirit Stones away.

"Hmph! These one thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones are fake! Don’t think my old eyes are dim and you can slip past right under my eyelids. Not a chance!" Old Guan sneered.

"Oh? All fake, are they?" Zhang Xiaohao said playfully.

"They’re fake! If you want to pass, you have to take out another thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. I’m warning you, this time you have to bring out real Spirit Stones! Otherwise don’t blame us for being rude!" Old Guan said coldly.

"Don’t go too far!" Zhu Xiaoshi couldn’t hold back anymore and roared angrily.

"Today you’re the groom. No matter what happens here, you can’t lose your temper. Leave everything to me, the迎亲 man." Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

"Brother Zhang, but they’re bullying us too much! I really can’t stand it!" Zhu Xiaoshi said.

"Money is just something outside the body. A good marriage is supposed to be tested! Sit tight and relax, I’ll handle everything." Zhang Xiaohao laughed.

He lazily exhaled a puff of smoke and looked at Old Guan with disdain.

"Xiao Xiong, give him another thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones." Zhang Xiaohao instructed.

"Yes, Young Master." Xiong Wang replied respectfully.

Right then, he patted the storage pouch at his waist with his right hand and once again took out a thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones, tossing them over.

Coming this time, he had brought along all the lower-grade Spirit Stones carried by Sisters No. 1 through No. 5, which wasn’t much—everything together was only around a million.

Rustle, rustle, rustle...

Another thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones piled up into a small hill on the ground, and a vast wave of Spiritual Energy surged out from them. Even just judging by appearance, any sharp-eyed person could see that these Spirit Stones were genuine.

"This is impossible! Counting this time, that’s three thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. Where did they get so many?" Old Guan thought in shock.

His expression still cold, he waved his right hand, and two house servants immediately ran over to pack up this thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.

"These thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones are fake!" Old Guan said coldly.

"Xiao Xiong, take out another thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones." Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

"Yes, Young Master." Xiong Wang responded, once more taking out a thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones and placing them on the ground.

Looking at yet another pile of one thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones before him, Old Guan felt his heart pound crazily. His instincts screamed that he couldn’t keep playing this game, or something terrible would happen. But thinking of the master’s instructions, he didn’t dare disobey.

"Fake! Still fake! Pack them all up!" Old Guan barked coldly.

Like this, they repeated the process over and over, and in the blink of an eye, a two hours had already passed.

In this short two hours, Old Guan had collected nearly fifty thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.

The massive pile of lower-grade Spirit Stones formed a gigantic mountain behind him, looking incredibly spectacular.

By this point, both he and the group of house servants behind him were all gripped by fear. Beans of cold sweat streamed down from their foreheads, soaking the front of their clothes, their legs shaking as if they’d collapse to the ground at any moment. Terror spread through their hearts, and one single thought appeared in every mind among them.

"Who the hell are these people? What kind of background do they have? How can they have so many Spirit Stones?"

"Still fake?" Zhang Xiaohao exhaled a puff of smoke and asked playfully.

"Still fake!" Old Guan forced himself to say, replying coldly.

"Young Master, there’s only a quarter-hour until noon. If we miss the auspicious time, it might be inauspicious." Xiong Wang glanced at the sky and said.

"True. The auspicious time is for the wedding ceremony. If we delay it because of such a trivial matter, that would be bad." Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

Shriek!

As his words fell, a hawk’s cry rang out from the sky. Immediately, a black giant eagle over a hundred zhang long descended from the heavens. Under the terrified stares of Old Guan and the others, it swallowed them all in one gulp, then swallowed the entire pile of Spirit Stones on the ground. With a single flap of its wings, it soared into the Nine Heavens under the horrified gaze of the crowd and disappeared.

"Sigh! Commit too many bad deeds and even Heaven can’t stand it, so it sends an eagle to eat you." Zhang Xiaohao shook his head and sighed.

Xiong Wang was speechless inside. Clearly it was you, Young Master, who made a move, okay.

Zhang Xiaohao turned his head toward Zhu Xiaoshi and said with a smile,

"They’ve already been eaten by the eagle. Let’s go over and迎亲."

"Ah! Yes! Yes! Yes! I’ll trouble you with everything, Brother Zhang." Zhu Xiaoshi snapped out of it and said excitedly.

"Music, start!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a laugh.

As his words fell, the drummers around them once again began playing the festive tunes.

When they arrived at the Qian Family’s main gate, Zhang Xiaohao didn’t get down. Since he didn’t move, the people behind him naturally couldn’t move either.

"We’ve come to迎亲! Please have Lady Yueya come out." Zhang Xiaohao said, sitting astride his tall horse.

It didn’t sound like he used much force, yet his voice spread to every corner of Qian Mansion.

In Qian Mansion, Mr. Qian was sitting in his study, drinking tea with a faint sneer. A little country bumpkin actually wants to covet my daughter? You’re dreaming.

Pfft!

Suddenly, an enormous pressure slammed down onto him. His chest tightened; like a kite whose string had snapped, he crashed through the chair and table in front of him and fell to the floor, a mouthful of blood spurting out.

At the same time, Zhang Xiaohao’s voice rang in his ears.

"If you don’t want the Qian Family wiped out, then obediently send the bride out to me!"
