Chapter 260 Bowing Down?
Primo.
At the main store.
A luxury car drove over slowly. The service staff at the door immediately recognized their boss’ license plates; they hurried over to open the door.
Whoosh!
A hurricane suddenly descended from the night sky, followed by a ferocious giant shadow.
The few staff members who went to receive their boss were all scared silly. Some of them collapsed on the ground, their faces pale and their pants already wet.
Boom!
The giant beast landed at the door and glanced at Liu Yuan with its cold and ruthless eyes. It retracted its extended claws and wings and swayed its body as it lay on the ground. One of its bloody mouths yawned slightly.
A strong stench came along with its yawn.
Liu Yuan held back the urge to show any surprise on his face. Banking the fear in his heart, he cupped his hands with a smile. “Senior Blacknether, the shop has prepared a special location for you. May I invite you into the shop to rest?”
“I’ll stay here. I’m not used to the places you humans build.” The Eight Hell Beast transmitted its thoughts. There was a lazy and cold demeanor.
Liu Yuan looked at it and knew that it didn’t mince words like humans. Not daring to coax it, he cupped his hands and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Senior Blacknether to rest here for the next few days. Please be forgiving if you are disturbed by anyone. After all, this is the base city…”
The Eight Hell Beast snorted and glanced at him; he couldn’t be bothered with him. He laid on the ground and closed its eyes to rest. Liu Yuan’s expression was stiff, but he did not dare to say another word. He thought that the clan master had already instructed this demon. If not, with the ferocity of the latter, the ruckus it could cause in this shop would only bring him trouble.
Erring on the side of caution, he decided to send people to guard the surroundings, lest someone got too close and disturbed the beast.
Liu Yuan’s face sank when he turned around and saw a few of the service staff members who had peed their pants in fear. He scolded them, “Get up, all of you! Look at yourselves!”
The few staff associates had fear written all over their faces. It was as though their souls had leaped out of their bodies.
At this moment, a person who looked like a supervisor ran out of the shop. He stole a glance at the Eight Hell Beast; it was rumored that the Liu family’s clan master had such a pet. He had some guesses in mind as he held back his fear and jogged to meet with Liu Yuan. “Manager, what’s this?”.
“This is Senior Blacknether, the clan master’s battle pet. I have specially invited him to hold the fort,” said Liu Yuan.
The supervisor heaved a sigh of relief and carefully looked at the evil beast that seemed to be sleeping soundly. Seeing that it was not disturbed, he approached Liu Yuan and whispered in his ear, “Manager, the Pixie Pet Store that was snatching business from us has closed!”
Liu Yuan was stunned.
“It’s closed?”
“Yes, look at this video.”
The supervisor handed his phone to Liu Yuan.
Liu Yuan looked at it for a moment and was a little stunned. He could not figure out what this shop owner was doing.
With so many people gathered, they had actually closed for the day.
Could it be that… something happened in the store?
Or… was he bowing down to them across space?
He frowned, deep in thought. Regardless of which possibility it was, it was a good thing for him.
However, it was too late to bow down by then!
“Let’s enter the store first. Immediately send a message to the managers of each store. We will have a video conference later,” Liu Yuan said as he walked.
The supervisor accompanied him respectfully and reprimanded a few staff members as he walked past them, “Why are you still sitting there like a fool? Aren’t you embarrassed enough? Hurry up and change your clothes. If you make such a scene again, prepare to pack your things and leave!” The staff was jolted awake by the prospect of being fired. They hurriedly got up and ran away dejectedly.
After entering the shop, Liu Yuan was swift and decisive. He immediately told the supervisor beside him, “Since this shop has closed in advance, send someone over immediately and increase the publicity. Direct those customers to our shop. If they choose not to do business, don’t mind if we do!”
“I’ve already sent someone,” the supervisor said respectfully.
“Now, there’s the Eight Hell Beast holding down the fort of our shop’s entrance. This is a promotional selling point. Remember to send someone to pretend to be a passerby and post a video of it. Also, don’t stop the publicity on the platforms.”
“Yes.”
“As for the new combos, since they are guaranteeing the top ten, let’s raise the bar and promote spots for the top 50. If it doesn’t work, we’ll use other benefits to make up for it. No matter what, we have to surpass them!”
Liu Yuan’s eyes turned vicious.
Going further with their guaranteed ranking offer was something they couldn’t afford. He was already under a lot of pressure with their guaranteed top 50 package.

The other party said that he could guarantee a spot in the top ten?
He was a lunatic. It was suicide!
He didn’t believe that the other party had the ability to have the customers’ pets reach the top ten of the league after training in the store.
He believed that it would eventually end up the same way as they did things. After the League ended, they would find some of the top rankers and discuss with them in private, making them admit that they had trained their pets at their particular shops.
However, this would cost a considerable sum of money.
This was especially so when two shops competed with each other. A third party would generally benefit. The competitors who managed to reach high rankings were no fools. They would ask for higher compensations, and the amount of money that the stores had to cough up would be a rather sizable one.
However, it would be a piece of cake for them to pay such a sum of money if they won this war and snatched all the business.
After giving some instructions to the supervisor, Liu Yuan went to his office.
He closed the door.
He immediately took out his phone and contacted his family.
The Liu family also had talented young men.
He knew that there were a few people in the family who would be competitive in the Elite League. Being from the same family, he could definitely get them to promote the shop.
By the time they got their rankings, it would then be “justifiable” when they claimed that they had trained their pets at their shops.
Although there were internal conflicts within the family clan, he believed that those few would stand united against an outsider’s threat.
Otherwise, they would not be able to explain this to the clan master.
“Hey, is it Liu Jianxin? I’m your Seventh Uncle Liu…”
The call went through and Liu Yuan immediately started the conversation with some small talk.
An outsider would have been shocked upon hearing that name.
Liu Jianxin was one of the top ten figures from the previous Elite League.
He had already become famous in Longjiang three years back. Many passersby would have some impression of him at the mention of his name.
Furthermore, Liu Jianxin’s resume was amazing. He had graduated from the number one Ares Academy in Longjiang and was one of the top students in his generation.
Since a few years had passed, Liu Jianxin was already 27.
Those who were over 28 years old were not allowed to participate in the Elite League. This was Liu Jianxin’s last competition. This time, his combat strength was even greater. He was the most popular candidate to win the championship. Even if he did not have any hope of winning the championship, he would definitely be in the top ten. Liu Yuan hoped that he could rope Liu Jianxin in so that their pet store would be able to make a bold statement.
Guaranteed top ten!
In fact, he could even be more radical and claim a guaranteed top five!
After all, with Liu Jianxin’s previous fifth place result and his training for three years, how could he be worse than the last time?!
Two of the strongest opponents in the previous season had already exceeded the age limit, and one of them had broken through to become an advanced battle pet warrior. He had surpassed the limitations set by the league and could no longer participate.
As such, with three competitors eliminated, Liu Jianxin had a high chance of becoming the champion. No matter how lacking he was, he still had a chance of entering the top three!
At the Liu family’s manor.
In a courtyard of an independent villa.
“Seventh Uncle?”
A tall young man was casually holding a sword in his hand. He was practicing his swordplay. It was a servant who had handed him the phone. At this moment, he was still sweating profusely from his practice. However, his breathing was soon stabilized after adjusting his breathing for a while.
His voice also became calm, restrained, and somewhat indifferent.
“Pet store?” “Guaranteed ranking?”
“..”
Liu Jianxin listened to the words on the other end of the phone and gradually frowned.
His expression changed slightly when he heard that the clan master had lent his Eight Hell Beast to the other party.
