"Since when did I become you guys' sparring partner?"
Monkey Hou-Jie furrowed its brows when it saw that the three of them were not paying attention to it and did not see it in their sights. Even though it was still standing there, they all turned to talk amongst themselves. Moreover, they even forced it to be a sparring partner without asking first.
"Since you came in here!"
"Yes! You were destined to be like this from the moment you entered here."
"Accept your fate, Hou-Jie!"
The three of them spoke at the same time with a smile at the corner of their mouths as if they had made an appointment. And Ba-Ong's expression clearly showed what he was thinking.
Nooooooo!!!
"You guys can't do this to me, Monkey Deity! You guys must respect and obey me. No! No! No!" Monkey Hou-Jie could not accept that it, who was superior in its generation, had to become a sparring partner of these Training Deity stage cultivators like this.
Back outside in Zheng-Fu's room in the tavern...
When Zheng-Fu came out of dimensional space, it was already evening. About half an hour earlier, someone had knocked on his door. But because he did not answer, the person who knocked left. And when Zheng-Fu came out, another knock sounded at the door.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Who's that?"
"Young Master, someone from the Emerald Wolf Clan has come to see you and is waiting for you downstairs, sir," the tavern employee replied.
"Understood, tell them I'll be down in a moment!" Zheng-Fu shouted back.
"Yes, sir, Young Master!"
One incense stick time passed...
Thump! Thump! Thump!!
"Respect, Young Master Zheng-Fu! We received an order from Master Elder Fei-Shi-Kong to come…"
"Lead me the way, I don't want to waste time." Zheng-Fu did not wait for the people from the Emerald Wolf Clan to finish speaking. He raised his hand to interrupt and told the other party to lead the way.
"Yes, sir!"
Even though it seemed rude, the people from the Emerald Wolf Clan did not dare to be dissatisfied because everyone knew that Zheng-Fu was very strong and was liked by both the clan leader and Elder Shi-Kong.
"Master Tavern Owner, this is my lodging fee." Before leaving, Zheng-Fu walked up to the tavern owner who was standing with his employees. Zheng-Fu handed him a high-level Purple Heavenly Crystal as a lodging fee. Which was actually a hundred times more than the actual price.
"Master, I can't accept it, sir. This is far more than the cost of our accom…"
"Take it! I'll consider you disrespecting me if you don't take it." Zheng-Fu had already thought that the elder would reject him. Therefore, he used his trick, which was usually effective when he wanted to force someone to accept something from him.
Ah!
"Thank you, sir, Master! If you come here next time, I'll quickly arrange a special room for you!" The elder felt very excited and happy. Because this high-level Purple Heavenly Crystal was comparable to his income for nearly two or three years.
"Don't think too much, Master Owner. And by the way, I have already placed defensive tactical formations to protect your tavern. If anyone has dishonest thoughts or plans to harm you or your tavern, you can enable it immediately with this jade!" Zheng-Fu also handed over the tactical formation control jade that he created to protect his room to the elder. Since he no longer needed it.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you very much!"
"Um, that's fine. I'll excuse myself first."
When the accommodation expenses had been arranged, Zheng-Fu immediately turned to the people from the Emerald Wolf Clan, "Alright! Let's go. By now, Master Elder Shi-Kong must have been waiting for me for a long time."
Ah!
"Yes, sir!"
What Zheng-Fu had done showed his wealth and greatness. Because he could easily use the high-level Purple Heavenly Crystal. Moreover, he also gave the defensive tactical formation to a small tavern. Just this, he could make people's eyes burn with envy.
The four clan leaders had already agreed that the banquet venue would be held in the Emerald Wolf Clan territory. Because Zheng-Fu had stayed there and knew Shi-Kong well. But before they could come to an agreement, they had quite a headache. Because the Furious Dragon Clan Leader and Elephant Bear Clan Leader were fighting each other to organize a banquet in their territories.
But in the end, they both had to surrender to the Emerald Wolf Clan Leader, who referred to Zheng-Fu's relationship with them. He also said that Zheng-Fu had stayed overnight in the Emerald Wolf Clan's territory before. Therefore, it was concluded that the banquet should be held in the Emerald Wolf Clan's territory.
Half an hour passed...
Zheng-Fu finally arrived at the banquet venue, which was a large square decorated with lanterns and various accessories to create a spectacular atmosphere.
"Come on, Little Comrade Zheng-Fu!" When Zheng-Fu arrived, the Emerald Wolf Clan Leader immediately walked towards him with Elder Shi-Kong and greeted him friendly.
"Respect, Clan Leader Fei-Shi-Fei! Respect, Master Elder Fei-Shi-Kong!" Zheng-Fu clasped his hands in greeting to the two of them. Before he continued, "Actually, just a small banquet is fine. There's no need to hold such a big banquet." Zheng-Fu did not expect that they would hold such a big banquet.
"How can we do that? As you saved Comrade City from this terrible crisis. How can we organize a small thank you banquet for you? Besides, at this event, all the guests who come are important people and famous people of Comrade City," Fei-Shi-Fei immediately objected to Zheng-Fu's idea. To him, Zheng-Fu was considered a great benefactor. He could not organize a small thank you banquet for him.
"That's true, Little Comrade Zheng-Fu! We're very happy to arrange this banquet for you. Including the other clan leaders, we're all working together!" Elder Fei-Shi-Kong cheerfully supported.
Sigh!
"Alright! You can do whatever you want. But anyway, after finishing the banquet, I must leave this city," Zheng-Fu told them. He did not want to argue since they had arranged everything.
Umm!
Every time Fei-Shi-Fei and Fei-Shi-Kong heard these words from Zheng-Fu, they felt sad. They wanted Zheng-Fu to stay for a long time. And if possible, they want him to stay forever.
The two then led Zheng-Fu to the seat that had been prepared. It was a special guest table that looked as luxurious as the seats of a nobleman. And the most important thing was that it was located in the middle of the area. No matter who joined this banquet, they could clearly see Zheng-Fu.
"Is this the table? Why is it in the middle like this?"
"Important people must be in important areas. This is the best," said Elder Shi-Kong with a wry smile. Placing Zheng-Fu in the middle of the circle like this was another plan that he and the clan leader had come up with to make it difficult for Zheng-Fu to get out.
Erm!
Zheng-Fu was speechless when he saw the elder's smile. He knew that this was definitely the elder's plan, but he could not do anything, besides letting it go.
Anyway, as he was about to sit down at the table, a young woman suddenly made a loud noise. "Young Master! Are you the Young Master who came to my tavern that day?" She was Niao-Zhu-Qi, the owner of a tavern that Zheng-Fu had gone to visit with Elder Shi-Kong.
"Zhu-Qi-Er, do you know him?" The Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader, who was next to her, asked with a surprised tone.
"Not quite, Father! I happened to meet him two days ago. Master Elder Shi-Kong brought him to my tavern to find a room to stay. Because he had a conflict with the Young Miss of the Furious Dragon Clan. So, she ordered her men to make a public announcement telling other tavern owners not to welcome him. But I don't care about that and accept him to stay in my tavern. Anyway, it's a pity that in the end, he chose to stay with the elder."
The young woman told her father everything that had happened. And she wondered why her father was interested in this young man. But seeing that Zheng-Fu was sitting at a special table, she began to understand something. And the matter that she suspected about whom this banquet was for immediately became clear.
"Actually, it's like this! Then you and he can form a good relationship, right?" The clan leader nodded and smiled, satisfied to see that his daughter had welcomed Zheng-Fu well. It was a good first step in building a relationship with Zheng-Fu.
"Probably, Father! But... you seem more like you really want me and him to get married! Father, can you tell me who he is?" The young woman could guess her father's thoughts. She, therefore, wanted to know who Zheng-Fu was and why he had caught her father's attention so much.
"You're going to know about that soon," Niao-Chen did not directly answer and smiled contentedly as he stared at Zheng-Fu.
Hah!
Zheng-Fu could sense those eyes. And they uncannily gave him goosebumps. But he tried not to show anything except a dry smile.
"Good evening, Young Miss Niao-Zhu-Qi! Nice to meet you again," Zheng-Fu turned to greet the young woman with a smile. Before he turned to look at the middle-aged man next to her and continued, "Respect, Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader Niao-Chen!" Even though he was strong, he was polite towards older people. Except for those who make him unwilling to respect.
Umm!
"We haven't seen each other for two days. You seem to be doing well, sir? I thought that you would be bullied by Young Miss Long-Xiao-Ying until you had to leave the city. And if such a thing really happened, I would be sad and feel bad!" Zhu-Qi said in a sweet and polite tone. And she raised her head slightly to reveal her full face.
"Fortunately, I had Master Elder Shi-Kong to help me. If the elder doesn't help me, I think I'll have to stay outside the city," Zheng-Fu smiled and answered the young woman naturally.
"Really good luck, Little Comrade! If such a thing really happened and you left the city that day, I don't know what the fate of Comrade City would be." Scarlet Fire Bird Clan Leader praised Zheng-Fu and sympathized with him for such a thing to happen.
"It's not that much, Clan Leader Niao-Chen! Even if I went to stay outside the city, I still came in to get something to eat. So, I must have encountered this situation anyway. It's just that the result may not be the same as it is now!" Zheng-Fu knew what Niao-Chen was trying to do. But he did not indulge in such flattery.
Umm!
"That's right! If something like that really happened, the consequences would be different!"
