Chapter 235 Mark Meets Song Tai
As a result, Song Tai, who had remembered all the instructions given by Alina, tested the weapons and explosives one after another. Of course, this self-demonstration brought 751 gold coins of revenue to the store courtesy of all the ammunition and explosives that he wasted.
Once he was done, Lin Xue returned the weapons that they borrowed, and then he finally placed the order.
"1 Sd.Kfz. 101(Panzer), 1000 of 7.9mmx57mm ammunition, 1 Panzerfaust 3-IT-600 (Rocket launcher), and 100 warheads (110mm)…
That would be a total of 3000 gold coins. Do you wish to purchase in your name or Lady Song\'s name since you told me that you are buying for her?" Alina went into a receptionist mode, suddenly treating him very respectfully unlike an hour ago. The sudden change in her behavior clearly indicates that Genesis Weapon store doesn\'t care about the cultivation level of the customers but is more about how much they are buying.
Song Tai, who knew that she is a puppet, thought that she was designed that way and then asked, "Is there any point who buys it?"
Alina pointed her finger at the Rules board where it was mentioned about the exclusive weapons for the special customers.
Since he has no usage for weapons, he said, "Buy in Song Yue\'s name."
Considering Song Yue is already a level-2 VIP customer, 3000 gold coins of a transaction wouldn\'t help her much but then again, something is better than nothing.
After that, he waited for another half an hour while being served an oolong tea. Lin Xue felt that Alina is just the same as her greedy master.
But then again, it isn\'t her place to teach how others should act in their own residence. She too calmly waited until Song Tai suddenly rose to his feet and spoke as he looked at the entrance, "what was that sound?"
"My master is here," replied Alina as she left the reception and stood at the entrance.
Very soon, the helicopter landed inside the training ground and two men got down from it.
Mark was already informed about the arrival of Song Tai. So, he wasn\'t surprised to see the old man waiting for him. However, he still felt the need to verify his identity. After all, he just went through a Quest to replace a fake king with a real one.

"Oh, a Supreme Ream expert, huh," Mark had suspicions of Song Tai being in the 9-circle as both Lin Xue and Song Yue confidently told him that he was atleast in the legendary realm, decades ago. So, it is not surprising at all.
If Mark had met this old expert before his trip to Western Moon, he would have been a little cautious but killing that elder who belonged to the Church of Doom increased his confidence.
As he entered the store, Lin Xue whispered to Song Tai, "The one on the left is Lu Zhen."
Song Tai already figured that out the moment he sensed life in Mark but nothing in Allen. He nodded as he rose to the feet and commented, "For a person who is rumored to own an 8-circle beast king, you indeed take your time to reach here, Owner Lu."
While his face was completely calm, indicating that it was either a pure comment without any malice or he was hiding his true emotions, Mark felt like he was being mocked.
He didn\'t know why Song Tai said that but he wasn\'t the type to back down from an argument. He countered right away, "And you are indeed patient for being a Supreme realm expert. Last time I heard, Supreme Realm experts are so impatient and arrogant that they will force the Emperor to kneel because of some bastard noble\'s mistake."
Mark was referring to the incident that occurred a while ago where Shang Fu was forced to kneel to prevent the destruction of the Empire.
Mark\'s words indeed take Lin Xue by surprise for she never thought that Song Tai is in 9-circle. She couldn\'t help but took a glance at the harmless-looking old man.
Meanwhile, Song Tai realized that something is blocking him to sense Mark\'s cultivation realm. Is it the store or is it something else?
Putting away his thoughts, he let out a smile, "fair enough. Anyway, let\'s get down to business."
"Okay, no problem." Mark looked at the smiling female Android, "Alina, bring down Lady Song."
"Alright," She saluted him while continuing to keep a smile on her face because of happiness, "I will bring her right away."
She rushed upstairs and came back with Song Yue.
Meanwhile, a pleasant smile appeared on Mark\'s face as he felt like Song Yue\'s face was just glowing with happiness. Is it because her great grandfather is here to pick her up or is it because Mark returned? He wondered at first but quickly threw away those thoughts and greeted her.
"You are finally home." Song Yue let out a sigh of relief, "You didn\'t return for three days. I was worried that something might have happened."
"Well, I went for lunch but the situation became complicated with replacing the king and opening the branch…" replied Mark before realizing that Song Yue has no idea based on the bewilderment on her face. "Wait a second… Didn\'t Alina tell you what was I doing there?"
"I have no idea what you are up to," Song Yue shook her head, making Mark turn his head to look at the female Android who flinched for a moment and said, "Big Brother never ordered me to inform Lady Song."
Shaking his head with a sigh, Mark looked at Song Yue once again, "it\'s a long story. I\'ll tell you later. But, before that, let us solve the current issue." After saying that, he turned around and looked at the old man who was keenly observing the both of them. "Mr. Song, you can finally tell us how you plan on helping your great-granddaughter."
"Ah! It is Great-grandpa Song Tai?"
It was then Song Yue finally realized that her ancestor is here. She never met him before. So, she didn\'t know that her great grandfather is still waiting for the past couple of hours.
She hurriedly greeted him and then apologized for letting him wait.
Song Tai then spoke, "I\'m here to take you home, Xiao Yue. I fulfilled my promise with Lin Xue. Your marriage with Ji Mingyu is currently put on hold. If you are not willing to marry him, then, it will be done according to your wishes. However…"
