"How is it inappropriate?"
Suddenly, Zheng-Fu's voice interjected, questioning the Second Elder on how the two young n were inappropriate.
Huh...?
With Zheng-Fu having a much higher energy level than he did, the Second Elder did not dare to argue with him. So, he tried to suppress his emotions and said, "With their energy levels only at the initial stage of the Immortal stage, they definitely wouldn't have a chance to be in the top hundred.
Besides, the two of them just… had an issue with the City Governor," said the Second Elder, with a clearly disdainful expression toward the two brothers.
"It's just their energy level and what happened at that ti. I don't see how they are inappropriate, Second Elder. Let's bet, Second Elder. If they can't make it to the top hundred, I'll give you this." After speaking, Zheng-Fu took out one Immortal Qi energy stone and thrust it forward for all to see.
Aaah!!!
"God!!! What's this pure energy!?"
"What level of Qi energy stone is that? Why is there such dense energy?"
"This Qi energy stone can easily break through to the eighth or ninth level of the Immortal stage for sure!"
Everyone's expressions turned to shock, and they gasped in disbelief at what they saw. The Qi energy stone in Zheng-Fu's hand was incredibly attractive to them, stimulating their greed. But who would dare to snatch it?
"Are you telling the truth?" The Second Elder's expression turned into the widest smile at this mont. He was sure that the two young n would never make it to the top hundred.
"Of course, I'm telling the truth, but if they can make it into the top hundred, you'll have to apologize to them in front of everyone in the clan. Apologize to them for slandering them for all to hear," Zheng-Fu imdiately laid out the condition of the deal if the two of them succeeded.
"That…" Hearing this offer, the Second Elder's expression visibly paled. But when he looked at the Qi energy stone in Zheng-Fu's hand, he decided that the Qi energy stone was worth much more, and the chance of the two brothers succeeding was very small. So, he said, "Agree! I accept this bet, and I hope that you won't go back on your word."
"Of course… Any words I've said, I'll surely keep. If I lose, this Qi energy stone will be yours. But if you lose, you must do as I say."
"Good. I also want to know if the two of them are as capable as Nephew Zheng-Fu says," interjected Song-Lang to ease the awkward atmosphere before continuing. "In addition to the matter you requested of , I've already managed it for you. I'll let Master Shuan-Gong bring it to you later," Song-Lang said, smiling as if only he and Zheng-Fu were there.
"Thank you very much, Clan Leader. If there's nothing else, I'll excuse myself now." Having finished speaking, Zheng-Fu imdiately turned around and walked away without waiting to hear anyone's words.
"Where did this kid get that Qi energy stone from?"
"I think he must have found the treasure sowhere. Otherwise, how can he have this level of energy at his age unless he is from a large or powerful clan!?"
"No matter where he gets the treasure from, if he's on our side, our clan now has three Immortal Soul stage martial masters. This will greatly increase the strength of our clan."
"Right as you say."
The elders' conversation began after Zheng-Fu walked away. The topic of discussion was also the treasure that Zheng-Fu had and his high energy level despite his age. But regardless of the reason, they only wanted Zheng-Fu on their side.
Only the elders knew about the bet between Zheng-Fu and the Second Elder. Therefore, the rest of the clan did not know either. But no matter what happened, Song-Lang knew that Zheng-Fu would definitely win. He was confident that Zheng-Fu could do what he claid.
Zheng-Fu did not return to his mansion after leaving the clan's eting hall. Instead, he went outside the clan area and entered the city. He wanted to know more about this city than ever before. And, of course, going outside to search for news was much better than staying inside.
In front of one of the taverns inside Huang-Di City...
After leaving the Silver Body Clan's area, Zheng-Fu made so slight changes to his face so that no one would recognize him. He then went to this tavern, which was the largest tavern in Huang-Di City. Whether it was people inside or outside the city, everyone would stop by here.
In addition to good quality restaurants, other services were also available to guests, such as the service of beautiful young won (monster race girls) who would intimately and excitedly entertain the guests. Moreover, there was also a maneuver arena to add fun and excitent for the guests.
"Enchanted Monster Tavern welcos you, Young Master," shouted the middle-aged waiter to greet Zheng-Fu when he saw him stopping in front of the tavern. Then he continued with a friendly grin, "May I ask if Young Master has ever been here, sir?"
"No, I haven't been here yet. Can you advise ?" said Zheng-Fu, taking out a handful of demon crystal coins and handing them over to the waiter.
When the waiter saw the money in Zheng-Fu's hand, he did not hesitate to imdiately hold out his hand and take it happily before saying, "Of course, Young Master. I'd be happy to advise Young Master about everything Young Master would like to know," the waiter replied with a proud expression.
"Great! Then I want a seat with as many views and people as possible. Can you handle it for ?" Zheng-Fu imdiately stated his wish.
"On that matter, Young Master can trust . This way, please, Young Master, follow . I'll lead you to that seat." The middle-aged man imdiately led Zheng-Fu to the seat he wanted.
Once inside the tavern, Zheng-Fu felt the atmosphere filled with the aroma of fine liquor and the seductive scent of beautiful won with animal faces. Only a very few of them had the sa face and body as humans.
As for the people who ca to get services here, most of them were of different races and ages. Most of them were middle-aged n, and they were all cultivators and wealthy people.
"Here, Young Master. The last table next to the railing is where Young Master needs it," the waiter finally said after walking up to the third floor of the tavern, pointing to a table on the edge of the third floor that had a clear view of the entire establishnt.
"Thank you very much," Zheng-Fu said and imdiately walked toward that table.
"What food and drink would Young Master like to have?"
"Bring the recomnded dishes from the restaurant and the best liquor in the shop as well."
"Yes, Young Master. Please wait a mont. I'll bring them to you." After saying that, the waiter imdiately walked away with a smile because today he had t a high-paying custor like Zheng-Fu, who gave him a lot of tips.
'The people and culture here are not that different from those of the Holy Ancient Region. Only their appearances don't look like human beings. But overall, it is considered similar. Most people have strong energy, but it ends up mostly at the Immortal stage,' Zheng-Fu thought to himself after scanning almost all the people inside the Enchanted Monster Tavern.
He noticed that within this tavern, there were about twenty great, skilled Immortal Soul-stage martial masters in different places.
Obviously, this place was a hub for people. He was very lucky to co here instead of going to the Mo-Qing Chamber of Comrce again. This place was suitable for gathering various types of information because when people were drunk, they tended to talk a lot.
Bang!!! (The sound of soone pounding on the table)
"Did you guys hear about soone from the Silver Body Clan coping with a one-palm attack from Commander Dan-Ge, our City Governor of Huang-Di?"
"I did. But why are you pounding the table so hard like that? You can ask normally!"
"Well, sorry. I'm very interested in this news. Co on… Do you guys know that after the incident that day, many clans sent people to investigate this matter? But no matter who they send, they get nothing back. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
"Because… I don't know either. Ha ha ha."
"Gosh! I listened intently. You get drunk; you'd better go to sleep! But I would say that those who can cope with the City Governor's one-palm attack will have to compete at the Clan Rally that will be held in the next two weeks."
"That's a high probability because the Silver Body Clan has gone down a lot. Even the younger generations of the clan have not been able to break through the interdiate Immortal stage, unlike those high-ranking clans whose youngsters have successfully advanced to the ninth level of the Immortal stage. And they are expected to be able to break through the Immortal Soul stage soon."
"It's natural. If I have a youngster who is strong like that, I'll also let him compete in this battle to save the clan. As for the high-ranking clans, they must frantically prepare themselves at this mont to deal with that Silver Body Clan's youth."
The chatter of the n at the table not far from Zheng-Fu rang out. After they had been drinking for a while, they began to chat about the young man who could cope with Dan-Ge's one-palm attack. That was Zheng-Fu himself. The second issue was about the upcoming maneuver at the rally.
However, the two topics they discussed were not very interesting. Zheng-Fu then looked in another direction to find out what other discussion groups were talking about. But no matter which direction he turned, Zheng-Fu found that these gatherings were all just for fun and talking nonsense.
