Chapter 267 - 266, Room No. 9, the Tianzun Private Room?
President Nan waved off the concern with a smile and said, "Old Wan, we’re all friends here, so I’m not afraid to tell you. If it were anyone else trying to negotiate with me, even if it were the Ten Great Families, unless it’s the Family Head of the Ten Great Families, I wouldn’t give them the time of day."
President Wan was taken aback and curiously asked, "Then today... this...?"
"But the person who’s here to negotiate today, let me put it this way to you..." President Nan leaned in close to President Wan and whispered, "Even if it’s a Family Head of the Ten Great Families, unless it’s old masters like Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge, I bet they’d have to clear out a room."
Everyone was stunned. The Family Heads of the Ten Great Families would have to vacate a room? What kind of international joke was this? In Pingnan Province, who could possibly wield such power? Could it be big shots like Numbers One, Two, or Three?
That couldn’t be right either. Numbers One, Two, or Three certainly wouldn’t compete with the Family Heads of the Ten Great Families for a room. Besides, those Family Heads were from the older generation; even Numbers One, Two, or Three would likely give them respect.
So, who on earth had such clout that they could make these Family Heads vacate a room?
"President Nan, you can’t be joking, right?" President Wan asked in a low voice, bewildered. "How is that possible?"
"What’s so impossible about it!" President Nan retorted, "In fact, I reckon that even Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge would vacate their room if that person requested it!"
"No way?" President Wan was dumbfounded. "Even Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge would have to step aside? Who... who on earth could this be? Could it be some influential figure from Capital City? Good heavens, could Pingnan Province even attract such a figure?"
"Heh, you’re out of the loop. This isn’t some influential figure from Capital City!" President Nan shook his head and said, "In fact, even a big shot from Capital City would at most be considered equal to Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge. How incredibly impactful those two are, who could possibly outshine them?"
"Then... who is it?" President Wan was completely baffled.
