“What’s going on here?”

　　The outside was bustling with noise as an elderly voice resounded from within the Hundred Herb Hall. Then, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Shopkeeper Zhao, who was clad in a brown-colored robe, walked out towards them. His expression changed slightly when he saw Gu Ruoyun. Then, he frowned at Qin Luo and Gu Panpan.

　　“Can you tell me why you are causing trouble outside the Hundred Herb Hall?”

　　Qin Luo’s expression changed. As arrogant as he was, he was now seeking for help. He dared not put on airs in front of the Hundred Herb Hall’s shopkeeper.

　　“Shopkeeper Zhao, it’s actually nothing. You’re thinking too much; we’re just about to head in.”

　　“Pfft.” A light laugh suddenly sounded and Luo Yin could not help but laugh out loud, “Nothing? Pfft, who was it that just insulted Gu Ruoyun by calling her a small part-time worker? And he even said that he would ask the people in the Hundred Herb Hall to chase the both of us out! Turns out that anyone related to Gu Panpan would be this shameless, to the point that words which have been said could simply be forgotten in a blink of an eye.”

　　Shopkeeper Zhao looked unhappy. Things were not as perceived and outsiders would automatically assume that the Hundred Herb Hall belongs to Elder Yu. However, the real owner was actually Gu Ruoyun, even Elder Yu would have to listen to her orders. Somehow, this guy had the audacity to even think of having the Hundred Herb Hall chase her away?”

　　“Mister Qin, don’t you think that you were too brash with your words? Is this how the children of the Qin family are brought up? Looks like our little Hundred Herb Hall really cannot accommodate big shots such as the likes of you, so please return home!”

　　Gu Panpan’s expression turned from astonishment to misery as she sneered, “Shopkeeper Zhao, you’re just a mere shopkeeper. Elder Yu has not even uttered a single word so on what basis are you making us leave? Is this how the Hundred Herb Hall shows its hospitality? Do you think that it is worth making an enemy out of the Qin Order for the sake of someone like Gu Ruoyun? Today, you are asking me to leave and yet I refuse. What can you do to me?”

　　At this moment, Gu Panpan had conveniently forgotten that Elder Yu had not only gone up against the Weapon Refining Sect, he had even battled it out with a Martial King all for the sake of Gu Ruoyun. So why would he even be bothered about the Qin Order?

　　From Gu Panpan’s perspective, this was merely a selfish decision on Shopkeeper Zhao’s part. One must know that the only person who can make decisions was Elder Yu. If Elder Yu had not offered his opinion, who was the shopkeeper to make personal assertions?

　　“Panpan!” Qin Luo’s reaction changed drastically in an instant and he started to regret bringing her along to the auction.

　　Who knew that this woman would be so dense. Even though Shopkeeper Zhao was not the most authoritative in Hundred Herb Hall, he could still make decisions in such things. It was obviously not a smart move to offend him…

　　“Brother Qin…”

　　Gu Panpan had wanted to say more but when she saw Qin Luo’s gloomy expression, she swallowed all her words. She could only stand there while glaring meanly at Gu Ruoyun and Luo Yin.

　　“Shopkeeper Zhao, I’ve indeed committed a wrong for this issue but are they entirely in the right?” Qin Luo said a little angrily, “She had directly insulted my person and obviously disrespected me. This time, the Qin Order had travelled a long journey just to join the auction. Shopkeeper Zhao, don’t you think that it would be quite ungenerous of you to refuse us entry right outside your door?”

　　His ego made Qin Luo unwilling to beg anyone for anything but he was also not keen on offending Shopkeeper Zhao either, if only Shopkeeper Zhao could give him an explanation…
