Chapter 650: Law Enforcement Order
Chapter 650: Chapter 648: Law Enforcement Order
An elderly man emerged from behind Feng Hu.
It was Elder Tang, the Artifact Refiner for the City Lord’s Mansion.
The City Lord’s Mansion operated its own shops selling Magical Treasures.
Elder Tang stepped forward and showed Tang Na his certification from the Artifact Refiner Guild.
Clearly, Elder Tang was an Artifact Refiner certified by the Guild. The Artifact Refiner Guild wouldn’t interfere with a certified member opening a shop to sell Magical Treasures.
“Captain Tang Na, I am Tang Song, the Artifact Refiner for Chenxi Pavilion.”
“Therefore, we are not in violation of any rules about opening a private shop.”
“This is my identity token, certifying me as an Artifact Refiner with the Guild. Please, take a look, Captain Tang Na.”
As the law enforcement captain of the Artifact Refiner Guild, even the City Lord’s Mansion had to show Tang Na some respect.
Thus, Elder Tang chose to reason with her.
Tang Na merely glanced at it before snorting.
She wasn’t an idiot. She knew this was someone from the City Lord’s Mansion stepping in to help Chenxi Pavilion.
She looked coldly at Feng Hu. “Feng Hu, I hope your City Lord’s Mansion doesn’t go looking for trouble. I, Tang Na, am a person who follows the rules.”
Tang Na was very displeased that the City Lord’s Mansion was helping Chenxi Pavilion.
But Feng Hu just laughed. “Captain Tang Na, Chenxi Pavilion has not broken any rules of the Artifact Refiner Guild. We opened this shop legally, as you can see quite clearly.”
“So please, don’t make baseless accusations.”
“If there’s nothing else, then please leave. Chenxi Pavilion does not welcome outsiders.”
He wasn’t giving Tang Na much face either.
Jiang Chen was their savior. With someone making things difficult for him, it was only natural for Feng Hu to offer his full support.
Tang Na couldn’t just do whatever she wanted to people from the City Lord’s Mansion. After all, although the City Lord’s Mansion wasn’t that powerful, behind it was the entire Tang Kingdom.
However, Tang Na had no intention of giving them any face.
“I, Tang Na, couldn’t care less about your City Lord’s Mansion.”
“I know for a fact that Chenxi Pavilion was not opened by your City Lord’s Mansion.”
“Trying to pull a fast one won’t work on me.”
“Therefore, I will be shutting down Chenxi Pavilion today.”
Tang Na’s attitude was resolute. She was determined to shut down Chenxi Pavilion.
Feng Hu was furious.
He pointed at Tang Na and said, “If you dare to touch Chenxi Pavilion, our City Lord’s Mansion will absolutely not let this go.”
This was a huge headache for him. If Tang Na was truly set on shutting down Chenxi Pavilion, the City Lord’s Mansion couldn’t stop her. They simply weren’t strong enough.
“Heh, then watch closely and see if I can shut down Chenxi Pavilion today.”
Tang Na was disdainful.
She was truly dead set on shutting down Chenxi Pavilion.
Whether it was for the reputation of the Artifact Refiner Guild or to get justice for Luo Quan.
As she spoke, Tang Na flipped her hand over, revealing a blue, sword-shaped token.
“By order of the Artifact Refiner Guild, from this moment on, Chenxi Pavilion is sealed.”
Feng Hu’s face fell at the sight.
He was completely unable to stop Tang Na; the difference in their Cultivation was too great.
The most crucial thing was that Tang Na had taken out the Artifact Refiner Guild’s Law Enforcement Order.
He hurriedly said to Jiang Chen, “Sir, that’s the Artifact Refiner Guild’s Law Enforcement Order! It can be used to seal Chenxi Pavilion.”
“I… I can’t stop her.”
His expression was grim. He could have stopped Luo Quan and Zuo Tu, but Tang Na was completely out of his league.
Jiang Chen’s expression grew darker and darker.
To be frank, the Artifact Refiner Guild had infuriated him.
And as Tang Na spoke, she raised the Law Enforcement Order, about to seal Chenxi Pavilion.
Once sealed by the Law Enforcement Order, it was impossible to unseal without the Order itself.
This was a type of restriction from the Artifact Refiner Guild, and it was very powerful.
At this very moment, Luo Quan and Zuo Tu both wore mocking smiles, watching as Chenxi Pavilion was about to be sealed.
Zuo Tu, in particular, was ecstatic.
His scheme was about to succeed.
“STOP!”
Just then, a loud shout came from outside.
The voice was so powerful that the moment it rang out, many people felt their minds buzzing from the shock.
Even Tang Na, with her Martial Arts Sect Fifth Heaven Cultivation, trembled from the force of it.
She froze, her hands stopping mid-action, and looked toward the entrance in astonishment.
Soon, a middle-aged man was seen, wearing a white robe, striding in.
Everyone’s attention was drawn to the man. They saw that he wore a Silver Crown, and embroidered on his white robes were three symbols in the shape of Pill Furnaces.
This meant the man was not only a Third-Grade Alchemist, but also someone of the President’s rank within the Alchemist Guild.
Seeing this person, the expressions of both Zuo Tu and Luo Quan changed.
Even Tang Na’s expression tightened.
She watched the newcomer warily.
Still, she spoke with a hint of respect, “Greetings, President Ling.”
Tang Na naturally recognized him. This person was the President of the Xingyuan City Alchemist Guild, Ling Yun.
This man’s status was naturally extremely high.
He represented the entirety of the Alchemist Guild in Xingyuan City.
Not to be underestimated, his status was the same as the President of their Artifact Refiner Guild.
In fact, the overall power of the Artifact Refiner Guild couldn’t compare to that of the Alchemist Guild.
The appearance of such a figure naturally commanded their full attention.
But Ling Yun didn’t pay much attention to Tang Na.
He hurriedly looked toward Jiang Chen, who was sitting there.
“Ah, greetings, President Ling.”
The moment Feng Hu saw Ling Yun, he immediately offered a respectful greeting.
This was the President of the Alchemist Guild, someone people from their City Lord’s Mansion simply couldn’t compare to. Even his father was very respectful when meeting Ling Yun.
Ling Yun nodded at Feng Hu.
But he didn’t say much to him.
Instead, he walked up to Jiang Chen, bowed, and said, “Ling Yun greets you, Sir.”
What?
Both Tang Na and Feng Hu were stunned.
They themselves had to treat Ling Yun with the utmost respect.
They never imagined that Ling Yun, the President of the Alchemist Guild, would treat Jiang Chen with such reverence.
They were utterly astonished.
Jiang Chen was surprised as well.
“You are?”
He was confused, because he genuinely did not recognize the man.
Even though he had just heard from Feng Hu and the others that the man was the President of the Xingyuan City Alchemist Guild.
Ling Yun immediately explained, “Sir, my name is Ling Yun.”
“I am the nephew of Venerable Black Water, the President of the Gambling City Alchemist Guild.”
“My uncle mentioned you to me before. I was delayed by other matters and didn’t get to visit you sooner. My apologies, Sir.”
It dawned on Jiang Chen.
Of course he knew Venerable Black Water from Gambling City. He knew him quite well, in fact.
During that period, he had spent a considerable amount of time at the Gambling City Alchemist Guild.
He immediately stood up and said to Ling Yun, “So that’s how it is. You’re too kind.”
Ling Yun then looked at Tang Na.
He said to her, “Your Artifact Refiner Guild has its rules, and I won’t meddle in them. However, your Artifact Refiner Guild will not be touching my Sir’s Chenxi Pavilion.”
“Whoever dares to touch it will have to get past me, Ling Yun, first.”
As he spoke, Ling Yun released the aura of his Martial Arts Sect Eighth Heaven Cultivation.
Although Ling Yun was Venerable Black Water’s nephew, his talent was outstanding, and his Cultivation was already faintly catching up to his uncle, Venerable Black Water.
He had been transferred to Xingyuan City to serve as the President of the Alchemist Guild.
Ling Yun knew all too well that Venerable Black Water had almost been killed by the two Vice Presidents of the Gambling City Alchemist Guild, and it was Jiang Chen who had stepped in to save him.
