“Boss… Boss, why are you hitting me?”
The manager’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the person who had hit him.
“Slap!” The boss didn’t say a word, and followed with another vicious slap.
“Speak to Mr. Xu with more respect!”
After dropping that line, the boss scurried over to Greg Jensen, bent at the waist, and respectfully said:
“Mr. Xu, my subordinate is ignorant. Please don’t hold a grudge against someone beneath your notice. These Jade Stones, please, take them all…”
“Boss, but…”
At this moment, the manager still hadn’t grasped the situation, still looking defiant.
The boss gave him a fierce glare and kicked the manager away, then pressed him to the ground and beat him ruthlessly.
In reality, only the boss himself understood that this was the only way to quell the other party’s anger; otherwise, once the other party made a move, his establishment would be finished.
Just yesterday, the boss had also been at Angus’s market and had personally witnessed Greg Jensen taking action. Later, he even heard that Angus’s camp had been wiped out. He was afraid of crossing paths with this Plague God.
And now, one of his own men had actually dared to provoke this big shot?
Wasn’t that courting death?
“Mr. Xu, I’m so sorry…”
The manager, having been beaten fiercely, finally realized the gravity of the situation, knowing he couldn’t afford to provoke this man. He crawled and scrambled up to Greg Jensen, continuously kowtowing and apologizing.
Seeing this scene, all the other customers were dumbstruck, their faces filled with disbelief as they looked at Greg Jensen.
The one who could command such respect from the market owner must definitely be an important figure.
Yana had thought that today there would be another conflict, but she could never have anticipated this outcome and was also shocked.
Greg Jensen looked indifferently at the manager on the ground, then at the owner with a smile plastered on his face; he didn’t say anything further.
Since the other party was so sensible, there was no need for him to unleash more violence.
“Yana, let’s go.”
Greg Jensen picked up the Jade Stones from the table and walked out of the market with complete dignity.
It wasn’t until Greg Jensen’s figure had disappeared into the crowd that the market owner let out a sigh of relief, not realizing that he had broken out in a cold sweat.
“Boss, who was that guy? Why did you…”
“Yeah, boss, we’ve never taken such a loss before. If this gets out, how are we supposed to carry on around here?”
The market’s enforcers all looked at the owner, puzzled, not understanding why their usually domineering boss was so respectful today to the young man.
The boss came to his senses, glanced at his men, and said in a stern voice, “Have you heard about what happened in Angus’s market yesterday?”
“We have, they said a young man…”
The manager had not finished speaking when it seemed he suddenly realized something, his eyes widening in an instant.
“You… you’re saying that guy just now, is…”
The boss silently nodded: “That’s right, and not only did he trash Angus’s market, but he also single-handedly massacred Angus’s camp. So many people, not a single one survived.”
Hearing this, the manager was so scared that he collapsed to the ground, recalling his own behavior just moments ago, feeling a chill run down his spine.
Looking at the manager slumped on the ground, then at his underlings’ horrified expressions, the owner snorted coldly, and said:
“What’s there to be afraid of? Although we can’t provoke this man, he won’t live much longer.
No matter how good he is at fighting, he is just one person after all. He who killed General Sam, do you think he can leave here alive?”
“Boss, are you saying that General Sam is going to make a move?” his subordinate hastily asked.
The owner said in a deep voice, “Based on the intelligence I’ve received, General Sam organized his men and even hired some professional assassins to kill this person after learning that his adopted son had died.”
“This man is indeed formidable, but in the end, he’s just a Crossing River Dragon, after all. A local snake can’t suppress a mighty dragon, and the courage of a single man is nothing to fear.”
His face was full of contempt because in his eyes, Greg Jensen was just a brute, unable to make much of a splash.
He then instructed his subordinates to avoid provoking Greg Jensen if they encountered him again because there was no point in arguing with a dead man walking.
Meanwhile, having left the market, Greg Jensen felt rather dejected. He had been so ostentatious in his actions because he wanted to provoke the other party into making a move, which would give him a reason to plunder jade stones.
But he had not anticipated that the market owner would be so afraid of him, making him too embarrassed to strike.
Greg Jensen turned to Yana, who was following behind him, and asked:
“Yana, how many more markets are there around here?”
Yana thought for a moment and said, “There are many markets, but there are only seven or eight with significant scale. You’re not planning to visit all of them, are you?”
“Why not?”
Greg Jensen smiled meaningfully and then asked Yana to lead him to the next raw jade stone market.
Yana gave a wry smile. Reluctant as she was, she had no choice but to obediently show Greg Jensen the way.
After a day of visiting three more markets, Greg Jensen wasn’t tired, but Yana seemed to be struggling, so he decided to call it a day and rest for the night before continuing tomorrow.

This place wasn’t large, and the events that occurred at Angus’s camp had already spread among the warlords.
Everyone knew Greg Jensen was a man not to be trifled with and that General Sam had already struck, so they avoided him, not daring to lay a hand on Greg Jensen.
This left Greg Jensen very frustrated; it seemed his plan to loot was going to fall through.
But Yana didn’t see it that way; her view of Greg Jensen had changed dramatically over the course of the day.
From initial skepticism to current admiration.
No woman dislikes a strong man, especially a superb beauty like Yana.
Unconsciously, Yana had let down her guard, no longer as nervous as before.
At night, Greg Jensen sat cross-legged on the bed, absorbing the Spiritual Energy of the Jade Stone, when suddenly someone knocked on the room door.
“Who is it?!”
Greg Jensen’s eyes shot open, and he flashed to the door. With the speed of lightning, he pulled it open.
But when he saw who was standing outside, he was stunned.
Yana, wearing a thin nightgown, stood outside, her pale face suggesting she was frightened.
“I… I’m scared, can I… can I stay in your room for the night?” Yana whispered, her face as red as an apple.
Greg Jensen chuckled. Did this woman want to offer herself too?
“Come in.”
“Thank you…” Yana said and slipped in.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward with a lone man and woman in the same room.
“I… I’m going to sleep first.” Yana, her face flushed, burrowed into the bed covers, her heartbeat racing.
People said this guy was a frivolous playboy. What if he tried to do something to her?
But the thought of Greg Jensen killing people was so terrifying to her that she couldn’t fall asleep alone in a room, no matter what.
