Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts - Chapter 6820 Motive

Chapter 6820 Motive

“Brother Long, try this Jade Bamboo Pearl Chicken! Don’t underestimate this place just because it’s the countryside. The food here is famous! This Jade Bamboo in particular is a local delicacy. It must be cooked within six hours of sprouting, or its flavor decays. By the tenth hour, it rots. As for the Pearl Chicken, it is a spirit beast that lives on water, air, and land. It preys on fish and shrimp. Its meat can be called first-rate. Many people come a long way just to try it!”

Zheng Wenlong was pointing at the various delicacies arranged in front of them in a beautiful restaurant. They were in a private room by the window.

The two of them had taken over ten transportation formations to arrive at this town. Zheng Wenlong immediately treated Long Chen to a meal here. He ordered without even looking at the menu.

The Jade Bamboo was sharp, and the chicken meat was excellent. When combined, the flavor was heavenly. Due to spending all his time cultivating and absorbing spiritual qi, Long Chen hadn’t eaten anything in a long time. But today, his aptitude was stimulated.

Long Chen took out a jug of wine and poured for Zheng Wenlong. The two of them toasted and drank their cups.

Just as Long Chen raised the wine jug to pour again, Zheng Wenlong took it and poured for Long Chen first. Just then, the door was rudely pushed open.

Over ten young men and women walked in. They gazed at the two of them coldly, baffling Long Chen. Just what was going on? Who was causing trouble for them now?

“Take your food and go. We’ll pay for you!” A somewhat handsome man spoke up after looking over them.

“Hey, you can’t do this! Please…” Just then, an attendant rushed in and stopped him.

This table that Zheng Wenlong had chosen was the best place in the restaurant. It overlooked the town and gave a view of the beautiful scenery.

Seeing that the best spot had been taken, these people were irritated. Furthermore, it was just the two of them taking up such a large area. They directly ordered them out.

The attendant had immediately had a bad feeling when he had seen them, but their robes were extravagant and they were cloaked in arrogance. They clearly did not have ordinary statuses.

“Scram. If you irritate us, we’ll tear down this restaurant of yours,” said a woman.

“Miss, please don’t make things hard on us. You are all our precious guests. You’re putting us in a tough spot!” cried the attendant.

He spent every day receiving guests. He had seen all kinds of situations just like this. They could only do their best when it came to things like this. Otherwise, if people just eating their meals were driven out, this restaurant would surely stop making a profit.

“Fuck off!” Seeing that she had now cowed the attendant, the woman’s expression sank. She shouted, unleashing a qi wave that sent the attendant flying.

Long Chen was surprised. This woman was actually decently powerful. Her law power was very condensed. She must be backed by a powerful faction.

That qi wave of hers was very powerful, but the moment it touched the attendant, most of it was retracted. Otherwise, the attendant would have been blown out of the restaurant. Her control over her power was not bad.

Their interruption did not stop Long Chen and Zheng Wenlong from sipping their wine. They touched cups again and drank their cups.

Both Long Chen and Zheng Wenlong were experienced people. They were not at all rattled by this. They just treated this as a meal-time show.

“You two…!”

These people were outraged at being treated as clowns. One of them immediately grabbed their sword. A sharp aura instantly rose.

“Everyone, you are in my abode. The honor of my restaurant rests on this. I don’t know what I’ve done wrongly, but please just point it out and I will apologize.”

Just then, an elderly voice rang out. A smiling elder then appeared before them.

He was a white-haired, chubby elder. Although he had an amiable smile, he was half a step into being an acquired Divine Sovereign.

Long Chen certainly wasn’t expecting there to be an expert on this level in the restaurant of a small town. Although an expert like this was nothing in Long Chen’s eyes, it was unexpected for there to be someone like that standing over such a place.

These youngsters clearly weren’t that experienced. The proper thing to do was to say a few rehearsed words and then each side would take a step back, settling things.

However, it seemed that they were too shocked to encounter a powerful existence here, and panicked. They didn’t know what to say, leaving the atmosphere tense.

In the end, it was that elder who turned to the attendant who had been sent flying. “Shouldn’t you apologize for provoking these heroes?”

“This junior offended you. Please forgive me.” At least the attendant was smarter and gave a simple apology.

“Hmph, whatever.” The ringleader finally reacted and waved his hand dismissively. But he still felt embarrassed, and turned to leave.

At that time, the elder said, “You’re all important guests. It was my family’s child that rudely provoked you. I hope you will give me a chance to make up for this.” He turned to the attendant. “Bring our guests to the western pavilion and bring them our finest delicacies. Do not offend them again!”

The attendant immediately gestured for them to follow him. These youngsters obediently followed his lead. But the ringleader turned back to glare at Long Chen.

Once they left, the elder bowed to Zheng Wenlong. “Mister Wenlong, I apologize for not being able to personally welcome you. Those ignorant children offending you is my fault. I apologize.”

“Old Fang, you don’t need to apologize to me. Come and eat with us. There’s good wine here. I should introduce you, this is-”

“Ah, there are no introductions necessary. Mister Long Chen is the savior of the Tiger Venerate line. News of your recent accomplishments have reached our little town. You managed to slay the armies of the devil race and demon race, and even beat one of the divine commanders. You even destroyed two of the Brahma holy lands. How could I not know such a god-like existence? Mister Long Chen, please let me offer you a cup!” Old Fang grew excited.

“Senior, you’re too courteous.”

Old Fang poured the wine for him, but Long Chen immediately also poured him a cup as well.

“Brother Long, don’t worry, Old Fang is our collaborator. He is backed by a large existence. He’s in charge of gathering the reports from this region,” explained Zheng Wenlong. “Old Fang, I remember that a month ago, a group of the Zither Sect’s disciples passed through here?”

Long Chen suddenly realized Zheng Wenlong’s motive in bringing him here.
