I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon

Sun Jinyi sat down with great difficulty.

He was very careful and didn’t even dare to raise his head.

This was because he was afraid of seeing something that he couldn’t see.

He was afraid of provoking something that he couldn’t provoke.

All sorts of legends revolved in his mind.

Hence, he didn’t even dare to move.

This allowed Sun Jinyi to finally understand what it meant to be on pins and needles.

For a moment, this poor descendant of the Sun family only felt his mouth dry and his tongue dry, and he couldn’t sit still.

However, the entire bookstore was as quiet as the bottom of the deep sea.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a knock on the door.

Knock… Knock… Knock..

Raising his head, Sun Jinyi saw a man in casual clothes, who looked to be in his forties.

The man also looked at him with a smile on his face.

“Hello…” he asked, “Is the boss here?”

Sun Jinyi could only look at the kitten lying in front of the coffee table.

Slowly, the kitten stood up and walked upstairs with very graceful steps.

Unlike the owner of the shop, the kitten went upstairs in a way that was almost floating.

It seemed to be afraid of the stairs.

It didn’t even dare to touch them.

Sun Jinyi saw that the cat that was protecting him had left. He didn’t dare to sit anymore and immediately stood up.

He looked at the man in a windbreaker who was standing at the door and wanted to greet him.

But Sun Jinyi immediately realized that his tongue was tied and his mouth seemed to be filled with lead.

He couldn’t even smile, let alone speak.

Therefore, he just lowered his head and look at the floor.

…

Ling Ping’an was in the kitchen, holding a metal rod. He strung pieces of lamb meat that had already been cut up onto the metal rod.

Even though the lamb meat was of a different brand.

The quality of the meat was undeniable!

The meat is tender, red and springy to the touch.

And more importantly, fat and thin.

It’s the best kebab ever!

Besides, this piece of meat weighs more than two pounds.

Ling Ping’an felt that it might be two and a half Jin.

“That shop is real!” Ling Ping’an on the side of the kebab, while the praise up: “Next time it seems that you can go there to buy HP!”

These days, such honest merchants are really rare.

Only Ling Ping’an’s grandparents had such a shop that would give more meat to them!

Nowadays, the shop owners, especially the e-commerce merchants, only had marketing, promotion, and goods in their minds.

They used all kinds of advanced technology to analyze the products.

They even used big data to analyze the products.

As for the quality and after-sales?

That would depend on luck.

In any case, Ling Ping’an rarely bought fresh meat online.

Ling Ping’an’s skewers were very fast. It didn’t take long for all the mutton to be skewered.

It was a large plate of mutton skewers.

Each skewer was filled with mutton.

More importantly, these mutton were usually three pieces of lean meat and a thin piece of fat.

It looked extremely beautiful!

Ling Pingan looked at it and felt that it was pleasing to the eye.

So, he turned on the tap, squeezed out some detergent, and washed his hands.

Meow!

A cat’s meow came from behind him.

Ling Ping’an turned around and saw his pet.

Meow!

The little guy bit the leg of his pants and meowed softly.

“You want me to go downstairs?” Ling Ping’an scratched his head. After thinking for a moment, he asked, “Is there a customer downstairs who wants to buy a book?”

Meow!

The little guy gently rubbed the leg of his pants.

Ling Ping’an seemed to understand something. He nodded and said, “Okay…”

“Bastet, go downstairs and invite the guests in…”

“I’ll be right there…”

The kitten meowed softly and walked downstairs.

“Such a good child!” Ling Ping’an looked extremely satisfied.

Therefore, he took off the apron he was wearing and washed his hands carefully. Then, he walked to the bathroom and began to comb his hair and wash his face.

In business, image was also very important.

…

Sun Jinyi stood awkwardly.

Finally, a soft sound came from the stairs.

A black kitten slowly floated down the stairs.

It landed on the floor and then walked to the door with vigor and elegance.

It bit the door and pulled gently.

The door opened.

Meow!

It meowed softly. It was not loud, but it made Sun Jinyi feel as if he was in an ancient palace.

At that moment, he felt like an ant.

The man standing at the door seemed to recognize the kitten.

He bowed slightly and greeted the kitten with an ancient etiquette.

The kitten did not accept this etiquette. Instead, it walked to the side.

At that moment, footsteps came from the stairs.

The stairs swayed, as if it couldn’t bear the weight. It creaked and creaked.

It was terrifying, terrifying, and strange.

The figure of the reclusive expert who called himself ‘Ling Ping’an’ appeared from the stairs.

The light shone on him, and his shadow was projected onto the bookshelves of the bookstore from the stairs.

Sun Jinyi panicked when he saw it.

“Customer!” His voice had already reached his ears. “We meet again…”

As expected, they knew each other!

Sun Jinyi didn’t have time to sigh when he heard the man who had already walked in. He said in a very humble, even inferior tone, “Sir, sorry to bother you again. Please don’t forgive me!”

Looking at his tone and attitude.

Sun Jinyi instantly knew that the stranger was here to ask for help.

That was because he had seen too many such people.

Those who asked for financing, loans, and turnover..

Most people came to see him with such an attitude.

They might use different languages and words, but their attitudes wouldn’t change.

“So…” Sun Jinyi became excited. “Will I see a meeting between real powerhouses?”

Sun Jinyi knew nothing about the interactions between the powerhouses among the transcendents.

That was because he was only a capitalist.

And in today’s world, no matter what country it was, the ones who truly controlled the power behind the scenes had long changed to the transcendent being.

Strength was everything!

In the federal empire, only with the Blackguard’s suppression could the transcendent and foreign species be obedient.

However, the Blackguard itself was strength.

An even stronger strength.

It was just that this strength chose to protect the country.

But in the end, it was still strength!

An individual could overturn the strength of an army group!

Single-handedly destroying the country, single-handedly destroying the army.

These were all things that had happened before.

Hence, Sun Jinyi focused his attention and pricked up his ears.

He heard the young bookstore owner walk down the stairs. He smiled at the stranger and asked, “Is your nephew satisfied with the book from last time?”

“Yes!” The stranger’s attitude changed again. In addition to the respect in his voice, Sun Jinyi also heard gratitude. “Your book has helped my niece a lot!”

Sun Jinyi couldn’t help but be suspicious when he heard that.

Book?

Help?

He didn’t quite understand. Did he mean? Code word?

How could the world of a powerful transcendent being be so complicated?!

But soon, he realized that he was wrong.

That was because the bookstore owner asked with a smile, “Then, why are you here this time?”

The stranger immediately laughed. His smile was a little humble, but it was mixed with obvious hope and desire.

He said, “I took the liberty to come here this time to ask if you have more…”

“An old friend also wants to ask me to buy one back…”

When Sun Jinyi heard this, his mood immediately became uneasy.

“Buy?”

“Do these powerhouses also need money to trade with each other?”

“What currency do they use and how do they trade?”

Thinking of this, Sun Jinyi’s heart started to beat faster.

If it was money…

Hehe!

He could at least immediately mobilize hundreds of millions of dollars in cash in his hands!

This was a very scary thing as cash was the most precious thing to capital.

Many billionaires didn’t have more than 100 million dollars in cash.

This was why, once those big corporations encountered problems, they couldn’t even pay the bills of tens of thousands of dollars.

It was because the capital chain was too tight.

Most companies had died because of this matter.

Once the capital chain was stuck, the bank urged.

There was almost no one who didn’t go bankrupt.

Just then, the owner of the bookstore said, “Does your friend want it?”

Following a pause, he said, “Do you want the same one?”

“Yes…” the stranger seemed to be a little afraid and a little expectant as he nodded.

“I’m really sorry…” the young bookstore owner said, “Those books have been sold out…”

“Really?” The voice of the visitor became relaxed, but also a bit disappointed. He bowed slightly, “Then I’m really sorry to Bother You!”

“You’re welcome!” The owner of the bookstore smiled, “By the way… customer, have you eaten?”

The visitor was slightly stunned. At that moment, Sun Jinyi could clearly feel that the visitor’s body was trembling.

Then, the visitor slowly nodded his HP.

This gave Sun Jinyi an illusion.

He seemed to be here to freeload, and he was here to buy, sell, trade, or ask for help.

But how was that possible?

Since he was high and mighty, would he do that just for a meal and come here to freeload?

Moreover, why would he use such a roundabout method to get a meal?

Well, this was absolutely impossible!

This was because Sun Jinyi had heard that the strongest among the transcendent valued their dignity the most.

This was especially true for the powerhouses of the Federal Empire.

A gentleman could be killed but not humiliated!

A gentleman could not be spared even if he died!

To these people, their dignity might even be more important than their lives!

However, what happened next completely shattered Sun Jinyi’s worldview.

The owner of the bookstore said, “Customer, I have prepared some meat… If you don’t mind, you can stay and eat with me…”

The voice of the stranger obviously trembled at that moment.

He said in an incredulous tone, “How can I be embarrassed?”

Sun Jinyi could clearly hear the hidden meaning in his words and tone. How could he be embarrassed?

It meant that he was actually very happy!

It could even be said that everything he had prepared was for this moment.

The owner of the bookstore was very generous. “Then it’s a deal!”

He turned his head and looked at Sun Jinyi. “Brother Sun, the meat has been skewered. Let’s go upstairs and roast it together!”

Sun Jinyi nodded foolishly.

Then, he saw the bookstore owner, a senior expert, reaching out his hand. “Oh right, customer…” He asked the stranger, “I still don’t Know your name?”

“Let me introduce myself first. I’m Ling Ping’an…”

The other party reached out his hand trembling. “Hello, Young Master Ling… I’m Situ He…”

When Sun Jinyi heard this, his entire body shook violently.

Situ He?!

Iron-faced judge?

Major-general of the Blackguard!

The general of the Blackguard who was in charge of Jiangcheng City!

Sun Jinyi only felt that his worldview was shattered at this moment.

His mind was dizzy.

The major-general of the Blackguard!

That was the empire’s sea-building purple-gold beam, the country’s strategic expert.

What was a strategic expert?

It was the kind of person who would send a general to appear at the border area when something happened, and the other side would be terrified the next day.

Sun Jinyi had read the central federal government’s Secret National Intelligence Report once a year.

In the national intelligence report, the Blackguard General was the core of the empire alongside space-based weapons and strategic nuclear weapons.

Because the latter two could not speak, the former naturally represented the empire’s final strategy.

They were the country’s shield and the People’s sharp sword.

They were the Great Wall in the night and the ‘non-existent fleet’ on the ocean.

Every single person was equivalent to a heavy armored army.

They were the ones who swept the plow court.

They were also the ones who maintained security.

Therefore, they formed the central federal government of the transcendent being.

All the Empire’s special matters regarding the transcendent being were handled by the generals.

The central federal government only had jurisdiction.

And now, such a big shot had appeared in front of him without a sound.

Moreover, he had even performed how to tread on thin ice in front of him.

From the beginning until now, this general did not seem to have any authority in front of the owner of the bookstore. He was the awe-inspiring general of the Empire’s Blackguard, the guardian of the transcendent world, and the Great Wall.

On the contrary, he was the same as those who had asked Sun Jinyi for help.

In other words…

Sun Jinyi’s heart was pounding.

He had thought that he had met an expert similar to the Blackguard General.

Now he knew.

The Blackguard general also had a favor to ask of him.

The Blackguard General had to be like his juniors and subordinates in front of him. He had to be careful and trembling with fear.

How was this a hermit expert?

This was clearly Zhen Yuanzi from journey to the west, the monk who swept the floor in wuxia novels!

Therefore, Sun Jinyi completely fainted.

So much so that he did not have the time to listen.

It was not until the bookstore owner touched his arm that he came back to his senses.

“Brother Sun… Let me introduce Mr. Situ…”

Without hesitation, Sun Jinyi stretched out his hand and said very humbly and respectfully, “Sir Situ, Hello… I-I am Sun Jinyi…”

“Hello!” The other party extended his hand and gently shook Sun Jinyi’s hand.

This made him even more flustered.

“I shook Situ He’s hand…”

“I shook hands with the iron-masked judge and survived…”

“I actually shook hands with the Blackguard General!”

He was very clear about the status of the Blackguard general.

Every one of them was a minister of the central federal government of the transcendent bein, so their statuses were even higher than that of the governing cabinet.

After all, they had always been very powerful.
