Incoming Auction

Park Yong-Gi and Yuan Huo Cheng did not expect that the Supreme Sun would personally come. They also did not expect the situation to escalate to this extent.

What they wanted was to put pressure on Heero with the help of the Hero League and Bai Xian Ming. They only wanted the damned secret technique, not an internal conflict between the two old monsters.

Park Yong-Gi glared at Wu Shanxi, an executive of the Wu family. It must be that fat man who informed the Supreme Sun, Wu Shitian.

Wu Shanxi was the only one with a calm look among the executives.

"What if I force my way in to seize him? He is certainly breaking the law! He must take responsibility for what his disciple has done!" Wu Shitian insisted on his opinion.

Bai Xian Ming shrugged his shoulders slightly, "I advise you not to do that. This is for your own good, old man! Once you fail to find the evidence to convict him, you will receive his retaliation!"

"Hah... This old man is not afraid of his retaliation. What, did he want to kill me? Or condemn me? He can't, I have a clean life, I have dedicated my whole life to this city!" Wu Shitian sneered. This showed that he was not afraid of any retaliation.

"You are clean! Yes, I never doubt that, but what about your family? What about your children and grandchildren? Are they really clean?" Bai Xian Ming sneered in return. 

If Wu Shitian really came to arrest Heero, the Wu family would undoubtedly be the main target of Heero's disciples.

Wu Shitian fell silent, and even Wu Shanxi's smile hardened. For the first time, the ancient Wu family was threatened.

Once again, the conference room was filled with a tense atmosphere. Wu Shitian and Bai Xian Ming were in a staring contest.

It was as if they were about to go into battle at any moment.

At this time, an old voice replied, "My... My... My... You two are scaring these people!"

Kim Jung-Mun, the Supreme Moon, entered the conference. Wearing his blue robe, he walked leisurely toward Bai Xian Ming.

He brought two chairs and placed them around Bai Xian Ming. Then he sat down next to Bai Xian Ming and looked at the other executives.

"You are dismissed!"

When those words came out of Kim Jung-Mun's mouth, the executives were relieved deep inside. One by one, they left the conference room.

"Park Yong-Gi, you wait!"

Park Yong-Gi stiffened at the call of the Supreme Moon. Unknown to him, his heartbeat accelerated to the maximum.

The other executives and Hero Instructors left the conference room, leaving Park Yong-Gi alone with the three old monsters.

"It has not been long since the Park family joined the 12 main forces of Star City. Tell your family head that if he continues to pull such a trick, I will use my authority to kick the Park family out of the 12 main forces. This will be your first and last warning! Do you understand?"

Kim Jung-Mun spoke in a deep and stern tone.

"Yes, I understand!" Park Yong-Gi bowed his head stiffly.

"Good, if you understand! You can leave now!"

Park Yong Gi left the room stiffly. He closed the door and let out a long breath. His back was soaked with sweat and his heartbeat was pounding.

*** ***

After the last executive left the room, the solemn Kim Jung-Mun smiled softly.

"Come here, Shitian!" He tapped the chair beside him.

"We're an old friend, let's talk about everything."

Bai Xian Ming closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.

As for Wu Shitian, he hesitated for a while before sitting down next to Kim Jung-Mun.

"Can you tell us what you know, Old Ming? I hope you're not biased because he's your future in-law!" Kim Jung-Mun opened his mouth.

He was acting as an intermediary between his two old friends and also wanted to know more about the young man named Xing Heero.

"He's not sheltering a mutant, but it was his disciple who saved the mutant from the adult mutant..."

Before Bai Xian Ming could finish his story, Wu Shitian cut him off, "See, he knew that guy was sheltering the mutant, but he keeps protecting him!"

Kim Jung-Mun sighed at the antics of his old friend. He was screaming like a child in a conflict.

"Come on, Shitian! Please act your age, let old Ming finish his story first!" Kim Jung-Mun was helpless before the childish Wu Shitian.

"Humph!" Wu Shitian huffed away.

'Huh, it's true that the older you get, the more you return like a child' Bai Xian Ming thought to himself.

He did not realize that he sometimes acted quite childish as well. Only his driver, young Xiao Yun, knew this.

Bai Xian Ming continued. He told them what Heero had told him. About curing the mutation up to Lord Specter, who gathered mutants to turn them into specters.

The two old men were surprised to hear that Heero could cure the mutation.

"Hohoho... Now I want to meet him in person. My grandson also told me he is a great master" Kim Jung-Mun chuckled as he stroked her long beard.

"Your grandson?" Wu Shitian asked in a doubtful tone.

"Yes, I sent Kim Hyun-Su to the Heero Academy. It seems I made the right decision. At least Hyun-Su is no longer overbearing and arrogant like in the past!"

When Kim Jung-Mun mentioned his great-grandson, a happy smile appeared on his face.

"Old Ming, how about calling him to meet us here? I want to know more about the breakthrough in the mutation cure!" Kim Jung-Mun expressed his interest in meeting Heero.

Bai Xian Ming helplessly shook his head. He also wanted to call Heero, but the old man knew that Heero would not come even if he called him.

"What? You are not even willing to let us meet him?" Wu Shitian asked Old Ming in an unhappy tone.

"It's not me, it's him! You will know soon!" Bai Xian Ming refused to say anything more and called Heero.

Toot! Toot!

At the second ring, Heero answered his call.

"Hello, Old Ming!? Do you need something from me? If so, please say it as soon as possible! I am busy right now!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!

There were clanking noises in the background. Indicating that Heero was not lying about being busy.

Bai Xian Ming was speechless. Before, the guy called him Grandpa Bai, now he changed it to Old Ming. Of course, he was also happy inside, it showed how close they were now.

Old Ming revealed his intention and told the young man that two Supreme Guardians wanted to meet him. As Bai Xian Ming had expected, Heero refused to come.

"Tell the two old men that I can't meet them. I am busy with the auction... Ah, actually, they can meet me tomorrow night. I canceled all Ranker reservations for the auction!"

"Tell them to buy the ticket and they can meet me at the Xing Auction House. Don't worry, the ticket is cheap, only one million WD for a VIP ticket!"

"There will be many interesting weapons tomorrow. An epic sword I would say, I bet you will be interested, so you can buy the ticket and come as well!"

Heero's answer left the three old men speechless. Not only did he refuse to meet the Supreme Guardians, he even tried to sell them an auction ticket to advertise the auction.

If it were the others, it would be their honor to meet the Supreme Guardian. But in Heero's mouth, the Supreme Guardian was nothing to be proud of. At least that was what Kim Jung-Mun and Wu Shitian thought.

"Oh, Old Ming, I need help too! A bunch of central government officials came to my district!"

"Huh? What are they doing?" Bai Xian Ming shot up from his chair.

"They want to search my entire district. They claim that I am harboring the mutant!" Heero's complaining voice came through the smartwatch.

"Good! I will make a call to have the officer recalled!"

"No! No! It's not that. I let my first generation disciples receive them. They got into a fight before the officers were finally beaten to a pulp by my disciples!"

"Please tell the central government to take back their officials! My dungeon is full because of them!"

Bai Xian Ming blinked his eyes and looked at the two Chief Guardians.

"Oh, also, tell the Central Government to send someone who can fight if they want to search my district. They can be a good sparring partner for my disciples!"

"All right, tell them to choose the officials as soon as possible. I am busy now, talk to you later, Old Ming,"

Heero ended the conversation afterwards.

Old Ming raised his head, looked at his two old friends and shrugged his shoulders slightly, "See... I told you, it's not easy to meet him!"
