The angry voice, which was so loud, broke the silence, and many people began to shout curses.

“What the hell! Dragging Explosive-flame Saber in to fill up the vacancy? Does Golden Hall treat us all as idiots? Get out of Donglin Town!”

“That’s going too far. Fooling people with a lowest-grade spiritual weapon, the Golden Hall is definitely an unscrupulous store which is execrable!”

“Get out of Donglin Town! We don’t welcome such a profiteer!”

“Get out of Donglin Town!”

Lots of ordinary people, who didn’t know what was going on, followed suit.

No wonder these people were disappointed. They originally thought that the “Peerless Saber” must be a miracle, but it turned out to be an Explosive-flame Saber which was pretty common in the market. This was more than a deceit. The Golden Hall was clearly playing around with them!

Even the managers of top business houses, who came here for checking it out, were surprised now. The owner of Golden Hall didn’t look like a fool, but why did he do such a stupid thing?

However, by their instincts, these sophisticated big shots were aware that the thing might not be so simple, so they remained apathetic instead of getting outraged.

If Golden Hall left Donglin Town in disgrace, there would be one less competitor for them here.

But what if the course was reversed?

It would be better not to pass any opinion until a conclusion was reached.

Wang Lin was among these bigwigs. Only different from others, he froze at the first sight of the Explosive-flame Saber.

Not that the saber was too miraculous, but he personally appraised the saber the day before!

It was the Explosive-flame Saber that Lin Xun had brought to Keystone Business to sell! Wang Lin could never misremember it. At that time, he had perceived that it was indeed an Explosive-flame Saber, but there was a unique air around the blade, which made the saber unusual.

It was a pity that before Wang Lin conducted a careful exploration, he got an order from Mu Wansu to drive Lin Xun, with his saber, out of Keystone Business.

In spite of a bit of reluctance, Wang Lin had no alternative but to follow the order upon the determined attitude of Mu Wansu.

Unexpectedly, just after one day, this Explosive-flame Saber appeared in Golden Hall and was used to hype by the owner of Golden Hall as a “Peerless Saber”!

Thinking of this, Wang Lin was a little depressed. Judging from the sophisticated means of hype, he could be sure that the owner of Golden Hall was not a layfolk, nor an unscrupulous profiteer accused by the crowd.

Since he dared to take out this saber in full view of the public, this one must be different from other Explosive-flame Sabers, boasting something special!

What was so special about this saber on earth?

Wang Lin became more and more curious although he was depressed.

There were curses all around the place. Various dirty words were piling up one after another. The chaotic situation was getting out of control.

Gu Liang, who had never experienced such a predicament, was standing on a high step, with his face red out of anger and grievance.

These short-sighted guys abused before knowing the specifics, which was really too much!

Gu Liang was about to refute them, but his father Gu Yanping stopped him.

At this point, Gu Yanping still remained calm and self-composed, as if he had not been affected at all.

Glancing around in sharp and bright eyes, he said with a heavy sound, “An appraisal will tell you if we are liars and if the saber deserves the title of ‘Peerless Saber’.”

Although he looked mediocre, his words like rolling thunder that went out in all directions immediately suppressed the curses, pierced the eardrums of many ordinary people, and made their Qi and blood in turmoil, which scared them all.

The atmosphere became quiet, therefore.

How strong his spiritual power was! Apparently, this guy was a strong practitioner at the realm of Gang Spirit!

After noticing the terrific cultivation of Gu Yanping, a lot of the practitioners on-the-spot felt astonished. It was rare for a store owner to be able to reach such a level.

Holding down the situation just by one sentence. Gu Liang couldn’t help admiring his father.

“Bro, how are you going to appraise it?” Someone asked in a low voice. It was a practitioner, whose body was covered by looming Gang Qi. Clearly, he was also a formidable figure.

“It’s simple,” Gu Yanping said confidently with a faint smile, “I know there are quite a few peers present. Just invite them to appraise the saber and let them tell you the truth, ok? In this way, you will no longer doubt my intentions.”

It was a good idea. Many people nodded their heads.

At the same time, a lot of people set their sights on different positions, where stood the managers of major business houses, such as Shiao Yuanzhong (with Treasure Loft) and Wang Lin.

“In that case, we’d better do as he asks instead of standing on ceremony.” Wang Lin said, taking the lead in standing out.

As a famous treasure appraiser with Keystone Business, Wang Lin got recognized by plenty of people around at once. It would be just that he appraised the Explosive-flame Saber.

“I would also like to appraise it and see what’s so good about this ‘Peerless Saber’.” An obese middle-aged man who looked amiable came out of the crowd.

Shiao Yuanzhong, manager of Treasure Loft!

Seeing him come forward too, the crowd surged again.

“How can Wu Business be deprived of this?”

“Ha ha, Gold Collector is also willing to find out the truth for all of you here!”

A number of people, all of who were big potatoes from major business houses in Donglin Town, offered themselves one after another.

Seeing such a scene, everyone present was completely relieved, just keeping the doubt in the heart. Was there really any surprising secret hidden in this ordinary Explosive-flame Saber?

“Please wait here for a moment. Later, my peers will reveal the answer for you!”

Gu Yanping cupped his hands toward the crowd, then turned around and walked into Golden Hall with Wang Lin, Shiao Yuanzhong and some others.

Staring at the back of Gu Yanping who was leading the way, Shiao Yuanzhong and others, except Wang Lin, sneered in their hearts. Did Gu Yanping want to defuse the current crisis relying on them?

No way!

As representatives of the major business houses in Donglin Town, Shiao Yuanzhong and others certainly didn’t want to see another competitor, which was understandable.

They had already made up their minds. If the appraisal result wasn’t satisfactory to them, they would not mind being back stabbers to make Golden Hall completely disappear in Donglin Town!

……

Outside Golden Hall was still a sea of people, and all of them were waiting for a result.

Standing in front of Golden Hall, Gu Liang, whose heart was thumping, had a faint feeling that his father had made a bad decision. Since their peers in Donglin Town were eager to look on the embarrassment of Golden Hall, how could they offer real help?

But due to respect for and confidence in his father, Gu Liang wasn’t thrown into confusion.

As time elapsed, still no news came from Golden Hall, which made the crowd around impatient.

Did it need to take so long to appraise only one Explosive-flame Saber?

When the public became more and more impatient, there was finally a movement in Golden Hall. It was Shiao Yuanzhong, manager of Treasure Loft, who came out first.

However, he was in a trance at the moment, with his eyebrows locked, and a faint amazement appeared on his formerly genial face.

Without a word, Shiao Yuanzhong jostled his way through the crowd, surrounded by his guards, and hurried away on his carriage.

This scene startled the people around. What happened in Golden Hall just now?

It was not long before others, including the managers of Gold Collector and Wu Business, came out one after the other, with various expressions on their faces, somber, astonished, bewildered or thoughtful.

Like Shiao Yuanzhong, they turned away without saying anything after stepping out of Golden Hall.

Seeing this, some clever ones on-the-spot had already got a point, but they could not be certain, while most of the people became somewhat puzzled. What was the appraisal result?

At this time, Gu Yanping and Wang Lin walked out side by side, the former looked relaxed and talked in a jovial mood, while the latter shook his head and sighed from time to time.

“Unexpectedly, Manager Gu has got an extraordinary treasure by his unique insight.” Wang Lin said regretfully.

“Thanks for your praise. I’m really flattered.” Gu Yanping smiled and cupped one hand in the other.

“Alas!”

Wang Lin sighed again and was just about to walk away. Just then, a voice came from the crowd. “Brother Wang, what’s the appraisal result?”

As soon as the words came out, lots of people looked at Wang Lin in unison.

After a long silence, Wang Lin said, “It’s really ‘peerless’, worthy of the reputation.” Then he turned away.

Upon this comment, everyone present was shocked and burst into an uproar.

An ordinary Explosive-flame Saber should really deserve the title “Peerless Saber”?

Looking at the shock and confusion on the faces of these people, Gu Liang could not help laughing, which swept away all the anger and grievance in this heart. He felt great.

Gu Yanping looked degage and undisturbed as usual, and such tolerant spirit was rare.

Clang!

A clear sound echoed through the crowd, as Gu Yanping took out the Explosive-flame Saber, on whose edge gorgeous and dazzling flames were leaping.

Suddenly, all people were attracted to the saber, trying to see what was behind this so-called “Peerless Saber”.

"The secret of this saber is impossible to be expressed in a few words, but I can tell you that this saber is twenty percent more powerful than other Explosive-flame Sabers and is comparable to a middle-grade spiritual weapon of Human-rank!”

With a confident look, Gu Yanping said slowly.

Twenty percent more powerful!

A few words shocked a lot of practitioners, who, as connoisseurs, all clearly knew what it meant to be able to own twenty percent more power for a common low-grade spiritual weapon of Human-rank.

Most importantly, this saber was still a low-grade spiritual weapon of Human-rank, but it owned the power comparable to a middle-grade spiritual weapon of Human-rank!

It was indeed uncommon. As an ordinary spiritual weapon, this Explosive-flame Saber was truly “peerless” because it should boast such peculiar power.

At least, there was nothing like it in the whole empire now!

And what made people even more curious was who refined such an unusual spiritual saber?

It was impossible for an ordinary spiritual tattooist to do this. A master of spiritual tattoos might be able to refine a variety of spiritual weapons on high grades or ranks, but it would be also very difficult to lift power in one of the most common low-grade spiritual weapons of Human-rank.

Was this saber refined by a grandmaster of spiritual tattoos?

Only the transcendent, like a grandmaster, might be able to create a totally different kind of Explosive-flame Saber?

Plenty of the people thought to themselves.

Unfortunately, they perhaps would never know that the man who refined this saber was now just an obscure spiritual tattoo apprentice, not even a spiritual tattooist…

Getting Well-known in the Town.
