The customers who had been watching the entire show all this time were shocked by this development. They were sure that it would be Jing Luo being beaten up rather than the owner. In fact, they had not expected the owner to be hurt at all.

But seeing that a member of the merchant council himself had done this, they could not question it. All they could do now was to wait and see what else happened.

"The owner is out of his luck," One of the customers said.

"I didn't think that this man would be so influential that even council members Shang would give him face." Another customer said.

"You don't understand. What if the man was not lying at all?" A customer who was old said.

"What do you mean?" the previous customers questioned.

"Don't you all know that the spirit stones aren't actually the same size? It is the sects and the mine owners that cut it into that size to make it standardized. An uncut stone that is as big as this is quite rare." The old man spoke.

"Why would it be rare, grandpa?" a young teenage girl questioned.

"Simply because they are usually not let out into the market and the ones who can have them are usually the mine owners themselves. This means that either this man is an owner of a spirit stone mine himself, or that he belongs to some powerful sect." The old man spoke in a wizened tone.

"Whoa! Can he really be from a sect?" The people were now really surprised.
