Open up and break into another world

“Make a move in the Black Market?”

Ma Shaobai was embarrassed; he really didn't have the guts.

How could the Black Market be something that a纨绔子弟 like him could provoke?

“Good! Good! Good!” Ma Shaobai said fiercely, “Then if you have the ability, never leave the Black Market!”

After saying that, Ma Shaobai really didn't waste any more words and directly retreated behind Xu Ming, just staring at Xu Ming like that. Xu Ming took a step, and he followed; wherever Xu Ming went, he followed.

“This idiot!” Xu Ming cursed inwardly, too lazy to pay any more attention, and just started wandering around.

At least, it could be considered peaceful for the time being, right?

“Young Master Ma, what should we do?” Three lackeys followed beside Ma Shaobai and asked in a low voice.

“Just follow him from behind, and when he leaves the Black Market, we'll mess with him! I don't believe he won't leave the Black Market!” Ma Shaobai said, “Humph, someone from a small, rural country, not even a Xiantian martial artist, dares to act so arrogantly in front of me; he's simply courting death!”

Because Xu Ming didn't have any Xiantian aura fluctuations on him, Ma Shaobai naturally regarded him as an Inner Training martial artist.

An Inner Training martial artist from out of town?

Ma Shaobai believed that there was no one he couldn't afford to offend!

“Okay!”

The three lackeys and Ma Shaobai together followed closely behind Xu Ming like shadows.

Some Black Market merchants around couldn't help but sigh: “This outsider is also pitiful; he actually offended Ma Shaobai, he's going to suffer!”

Ma Shaobai wasn't considered a top-tier young master in Desolate City; compared to those young disciples of the Desolate Sect, his status was even worse!

But as the saying goes, it's easier to see King Yama than a petty devil; for these middle and lower-level people in the Black Market, a young master like Ma Shaobai was even more terrifying than those top-tier young masters!

Because the top-tier young masters would generally value their status and wouldn't casually cause trouble outside. On the contrary, those at Ma Shaobai's level, with a little bit of power, were afraid that the world wouldn't know how awesome they were, and insisted on flaunting their power everywhere; these kinds of people were the most difficult to deal with!

Therefore, when everyone saw that Xu Ming had offended Ma Shaobai, they couldn't help but sympathize with him.

“Who knew he'd offend Ma Shaobai… As an outsider, running into such a petty young master… Alas, may you be blessed by the heavens!”

Some people didn't sympathize with Xu Ming: “Pitiable? Indeed pitiable! But there must be something hateful about pitiable people! Who told this kid to be blind and provoke Ma Shaobai; he's courting death, who can he blame?”

The surrounding people whispered, watching Xu Ming and Ma Shaobai's group gradually walk towards the depths of the Black Market.

Being followed by Ma Shaobai like a pug, Xu Ming didn't care at all, as if he didn't even know there were these few people behind him, and wandered around the Black Market on his own.

When he wandered to other places in the Black Market, the discussions around Xu Ming and Ma Shaobai were completely different — because the people here hadn't seen the conflict between Xu Ming and Ma Shaobai just now.

“Hey, hey, hey, who is that, do you know?” An experienced Black Market driver secretly pointed at Xu Ming and curiously asked an even more experienced driver beside him.

The more experienced driver looked at Xu Ming suspiciously: “I don't know, a new face, definitely hasn't been to the Black Market before!”

When this more experienced driver was hanging around the Black Market, let alone someone Xu Ming's age, even Xu Ming's parents probably hadn't been born yet! The more experienced driver had been in the Black Market for so many years, and he remembered clearly the people who came and went, even if they had only come once.

“I also think it's a new face, but… look at that Young Master Ma Shaobai, why is he following behind him like a dog?”

“That's right!” The more experienced driver exclaimed, “And he's always keeping a distance from this new young master, as if he doesn't dare to get too close — I bet, this new face is definitely a big shot!”

The surrounding people saw Ma Shaobai following Xu Ming like a shadow, but not daring to get too close, and thought that Ma Shaobai was Xu Ming's little follower, afraid of disturbing Xu Ming's interest in shopping in the Black Market, so he only dared to follow from a distance.

To be able to make Ma Shaobai willingly follow, not daring to get too close, how big of a figure would that be!

“Could it be from the Desolate Sect?”

“Even if he's not from the Desolate Sect, his status is probably not far from the disciples of the Desolate Sect!”

“A big shot!”

The old driver and the more experienced driver exchanged a look, both feeling that the opportunity couldn't be missed — for this kind of big shot, the first time they came to the Desolate City Black Market was the easiest time to befriend them; if they missed this opportunity, it would be much more difficult to befriend them in the future!

Thinking this, the two old drivers quickly grabbed a string of sandalwood-condensed Phoenix Flower Wood bracelets from the counter in their shop, and ran up to Xu Ming with bows and smiles: “Is this young master's first time to our Desolate City Black Market? Please accept this string of Phoenix Flower Wood bracelets, and please take care of our small shop's business in the future!”

“Eh?” Xu Ming was stunned.

Although the Phoenix Flower Wood bracelet wasn't much to Xu Ming now, it was still worth hundreds of taels of gold. What kind of shop was this, so enthusiastic, running up to give such a valuable item to a new customer like him!

“Could they be trying to swindle me?” In this day and age, one must be wary of others!

At this time, Xu Ming heard the two old drivers who were giving the gift secretly ask: “Why is Young Master Ma following behind you, not daring to come up?”

Just a dog!?

The two old drivers were shocked — these words were too domineering! Daring to say that Ma Shaobai was like a dog!

But wasn't it true? Ma Shaobai was hanging behind Xu Ming, not coming up and not leaving, wasn't he just like a dog?

“A big shot!” The two old drivers were even more convinced that this young master was definitely a big shot, and even Ma Shaobai could only be like a dog in front of him.

Thinking of this, the flattery on the two old drivers' faces became even more obvious, their two old faces were wrinkled into buns with smiles, and they kept handing the Phoenix Flower Wood bracelet upwards.

But how could Xu Ming really want their “kindness”? After declining a few times, he left.

“Aloof! Truly aloof!” Not having the gift given out, the two old drivers felt that Xu Ming's background was even greater, “This young master must not have liked this string of Phoenix Flower Wood bracelets, if only we had taken out something more valuable!”

“Too bad… We missed an opportunity to befriend a big shot! Otherwise, if this young master took care of our business a little, our Zitan Pavilion would be thrilled!”

The two old drivers had been in the Black Market for many years, and naturally knew the routines well.

Ma Shaobai looked at the two old drivers with some doubt, and couldn't figure out for a long time what these two old drivers were doing approaching Xu Ming with bows and smiles.

Similar things happened several more times.

Later, Ma Shaobai suddenly realized — damn it, this kid named Xu Ming was treating them like dogs and walking them!

Wasn't it true!

Xu Ming was walking in front, and Ma Shaobai and the three lackeys were hanging behind, wasn't it like walking dogs! Moreover, these few dogs were also very obedient, following honestly, not barking or making noise, how well-behaved!

“Damn it!” Ma Shaobai was immediately so angry that he wanted to rush up, “This is too much! This is really too much! I, Ma Shaobai, am also a person with some face in Desolate City, I have never offended him, yet he is humiliating me like this! It's really too much!”

“Young Master Ma, Young Master Ma!” The three lackeys hurriedly advised, “This is the Black Market, it's not good to make a move!”

“Not good to make a move? Are you saying I should just let him walk me like a dog?”

“Young Master Ma, calm down first, you sit down for a while, we few will follow him, we guarantee we won't let him run away!”

“Humph! I have no choice but to do so.” Ma Shaobai snorted heavily.

However, Ma Shaobai was too ashamed to stay in the Black Market today; he only felt that the gazes of the people around him were full of ridicule.

“I'll go to the 'Desolate Tujia Cuisine' next to the Black Market and wait, you guys tell me immediately when this kid leaves the Black Market!” Ma Shaobai ordered.

“Yes!”

Afterwards, Xu Ming wandered around the Black Market for a while, and almost walked through every place in the Black Market, just like that, he got up and left as if nothing had happened — wasn't it just that nothing had happened? What could a纨绔子弟 be?

Leaving the Black Market.

“Hmm? Desolate Tujia Cuisine?” Xu Ming became interested, “Let's also try the specialties of Desolate City!”
