Supreme Devouring God-Chapter 1179: Dumbstruck!

"What did you say?"

However, upon hearing this, Kong Zhenyun frowned deeply.

Cleared out a bad apple from Yiu's Commerce in advance?

What does that mean?

Qin Chen did not answer Kong Zhenyun's question.

Instead, he looked at Kong Zhenyun and said, "Who agreed for Kong's Bank to merge into Yiu's Commerce?"

"What exactly are you talking about?"

Kong Zhenyun's brows furrowed tightly.

Who agreed to let Kong's Bank merge into Yiu's Commerce, and does it have anything to do with Qin Chen?

Yet, Qin Chen still didn't answer Kong Zhenyun.

He simply increased the pressure on Kong Zhenyun's head with his foot once again.

"Ah—"

Kong Zhenyun screamed in agony again, feeling as though his head might explode under Qin Chen's foot at any moment.

"Answer my question."

Qin Chen said coldly.

"It was Shao Tianyuan from the Imperial City branch of Yiu's Commerce!"

Kong Zhenyun shouted loudly.

He was afraid that if he hesitated any longer, his head would indeed explode under Qin Chen's foot.

"Shao Tianyuan?"

Upon hearing this name, Qin Chen murmured it softly to himself.

Then he said, "Hmm, I'll remember that."

He would hold this person accountable for allowing Kong's Bank, a bad influence, to merge into Yiu's Commerce!

So, Qin Chen asked Kong Zhenyun.

Qin Chen was so calm.

Yet, everyone else was far from calm.

To them, the name Shao Tianyuan was as well-known as thunder.

Though Yiu's Commerce's influence lies in West Origin.

That doesn't mean Yiu's Commerce lacks influence in the Imperial City.

Quite the contrary, Yiu's Commerce nearly controls a significant portion of the Imperial City's business world!

And all of this can't be mentioned without talking about one person.

That person is Shao Tianyuan!

In the Imperial City, Shao Tianyuan's name is just as weighty as Yiu Qishui!

In fact, if it weren't for the Royal Family secretly suppressing Yiu's Commerce, Yiu's Commerce might have dominated half of the vast Imperial City business world.

"Kong Zhenyun actually got to know Lord Shao Tianyuan?"

"In the Imperial City, Shao Tianyuan is practically a local emperor! Even the Royal Family has to show him some respect, how did Kong Zhenyun manage to climb up to such a person?"

...

Everyone was deeply shocked, discussing in disbelief.

Bang—

As everyone was in shock.

Just as Qin Chen was about to end Kong Zhenyun's life.

Kong Zhenyun suddenly pulled out a mysterious glowing sphere.

Then he suddenly crushed it.

Seeing Kong Zhenyun's actions.

Qin Chen was suddenly alarmed and quickly retreated.

He thought it was something like an explosive sphere, thinking Kong Zhenyun wanted to take him down together.

But unexpectedly.

After Kong Zhenyun crushed the sphere.

The sphere disappeared.

In the air, however, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air.

This figure wore a blue-purple Yun Jin long robe, a stone-blue tiger-patterned silver belt around his waist, noble yet formidable.

Upon seeing this figure.

Everyone was stunned at first.

Then a portion of people's faces changed dramatically.

Then, they directly knelt down.

"Pay respects to Lord Shao!"

Lord Shao?

Those who didn't know the identity of this figure were also taken aback.

Then they hurriedly knelt down.

With full respect.

Even Kong Jitian and others were the same.

This figure hadn't even spoken a word.

Yet the auction hall was already filled with kneeling people.

Of course, in the auction hall, there were two people who didn't kneel.

The first one, of course, was Qin Chen.

The other was Hong Qingya.

"Finished—"

Seeing that Qin Chen and Hong Qingya didn't kneel.

Everyone's face turned pale.

That was Shao Tianyuan!

The local emperor of the Imperial City!

Unmoved in the slightest?

Are they seeking death?

Little did they know, what happened next would shock them even more.

Only to see Qin Chen staring at Shao Tianyuan.

There was a glint in his eyes, then he asked, "Are you Shao Tianyuan?

Upon hearing this, Shao Tianyuan then turned his gaze towards Qin Chen.

While the others almost died of fright.

The timid ones felt as if their hearts were about to explode.

Not only did he not kneel, he even dared to call Shao Tianyuan by his name?

Seeking death!

This was simply seeking death!

Not kneeling, that's disrespect!

Addressing him by name in person, this isn't just a matter of disrespect, it's outright irreverence!

"Bold and ignorant fool, how dare you openly offend Lord Shao!"

Kong Zhenyun, seeing this scene.

Immediately roared in anger.

Yet, within his heart, he was overjoyed.

This was exactly the effect he wanted!

Because only like this, Qin Chen would die more miserably.

That sphere was a kind of item called a projection sphere.

It was connected with Shao Tianyuan's very essence.

Once someone crushed it, Shao Tianyuan would sense it and appear through projection.

However, Kong Zhenyun failed to notice.

When Shao Tianyuan's gaze fell on Qin Chen.

That face was already completely filled with astonishment.

Kong Zhenyun continued shouting: "Lord Shao! Not only did this person disrespect you, but he also openly demolished the place of Kong's Bank!"

"And when I mentioned Yiu's Commerce, he remained just as arrogant as before."

"He simply doesn't regard Yiu's Commerce at all!"

Kong Zhenyu continued to stir conflict for Shao Tianyuan because he hated Qin Chen so much.

However, what Shao Tianyuan said next.

Left Kong Zhenyun utterly dumbfounded.

"Did a good job demolishing it!!!"

Shao Tianyuan shouted loudly.

Kong Zhenyun's face instantly froze.

Everyone kneeling on the ground also instantly turned to stone.

Only Qin Chen and Hong Qingya remained expressionless.

Kong Zhenyun felt his mind was a bit stuck.

He hesitated and asked, "Lord Shao, what do you mean by 'did a good job demolishing it'?"

He thought perhaps he misunderstood Shao Tianyuan's meaning.

"I said demolishing Kong's Bank was well done!!!"

Shao Tianyuan glared at Kong Zhenyun.

How could he not be angry?

This was Qin Chen for goodness' sake!

Not even to mention him, even Yiu's Commerce's President Yiu Qishui would have to respectfully call him Sect Leader upon seeing Qin Chen.

Indeed, he was extremely renowned in the Imperial City, even the Royal Family had to give him some respect.

But, could he be more formidable than Yiu Qishui?

Moreover, given Yiu's Commerce's current state.

With just a word from Qin Chen, everything Shao Tianyuan had would be finished!

For no reason at all, putting him at such risk, how could Shao Tianyuan not be angry?

What!!!

Hearing Shao Tianyuan's words.

At this moment, everyone felt as if they were struck by a thunderbolt.

Staring blankly, speechless.

Their minds suddenly couldn't process what was happening.

What the heck does this mean?

Wasn't Kong's Bank supposed to merge into Yiu's Commerce?

Shouldn't it be standing on Kong Zhenyun's side?

Why instead, was it siding with Qin Chen?

Kong Zhenyun simply couldn't believe all this. If he couldn't still feel the dull throbbing pain in his head, he would've thought he was hallucinating.

"Lord Shao, what do you... mean by this?"
