Chapter 74: Ripping Off

Not long after Wang Yufan led Xu Changqing and Wang Cai out of the dense forest, they saw several cultivators dressed in blue and white clothes walking towards them from the opposite direction, talking incessantly.

"Have you heard? The Young Sect Leader brought a Genius from the barren lands; it seems to be a woman."

"Of course I know that. I heard that the woman was wearing a ghost face mask. Sect Master once saw her face under the mask and was completely stunned."

After all, she was brought up by the Young Sect Leader, so he felt it inappropriate to interfere. Finally, after testing her talent, it turned out to be a purple-level talent, which shocked the Old Ancestor. After meeting the Old Ancestor once, he immediately accepted her as his disciple.

"So what happened in the end? Did the Old Ancestor accept it?"

"Well, in the end, she seemed to tell the Old Ancestor that she had another Master, but she herself was a registered disciple. This angered the Old Ancestor, who said that someone would call such an unparalleled genius a registered disciple must be an idiot."

"Alas, it’s because of this matter that the woman said that Old Ancestor had to speak to her master in person. In the end, Old Ancestor decided to give her a one-month deadline."

If her master doesn’t come, then he’ll just force her to become his disciple. He doesn’t want to lose such a promising talent, especially since he’s heard that the Young Sect Leader is also very interested in her.

...

Wang Yufan, who was walking towards them, overheard their conversation.

Wang Yufan had guessed that the person these people were talking about was Li Meng’er. He had predicted that they would meet again soon, but he didn’t expect it to happen so quickly.

Xu Changqing overheard this too, and then quietly whispered to Wang Yufan.

"Master, I’ll go over and inquire. They were probably talking about Li Meng’er."

Wang Yufan nodded gently. "Go ahead, but don’t mention Li Meng’er yet."

Xu Changqing understood immediately and strode forward.

He walked up to the group and clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Hello, brothers. My master and I are lost here. Could you please tell me where we are and which jurisdiction this is?"

The group of people dressed in blue and white were suddenly called out to, and they were taken aback. They looked up at the white-clad boy standing in front of them.

The person in the middle stepped forward, also slightly clasped their hands in a fist salute, and then asked with some doubt.

"Young man, do you not know where you are?"

"Yes, my Master and I come from the countryside, and we don’t know much about the outside world. We hope you brothers can kindly inform us," Xu Changqing said.

The man in blue and white clothes told him the general area where they were located.

"This is the Qian Domain, which falls under the jurisdiction of our War God Hall. We are currently only in a small part of the area under our War God Hall’s jurisdiction."

"The dense forest behind you is called Beast Ridge. Keep going forward and you’ll reach Heaven Flame City. One hundred kilometers south of Heaven Flame City is my War God Hall headquarters."

Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing clasped his hands in a fist salute again.

"So you are all Disciple of War God Hall. It’s an honor to meet you all. Thank you for letting me know. I have a small token of my appreciation here."

As Xu Changqing spoke, he reluctantly took out a High-Grade Spirit Stone from his storage ring and secretly slipped it into the hand of the person in front of him.

War God Hall, dressed in blue and white Disciple, my eyes lit up.

"Seeing how sincere you are, young man, I’ll tell you another piece of news. In ten days, my War God Hall will be recruiting discicers. You might as well go and take a look."

Although you have a master, I don’t see he has any cultivation, which is holding you back. When you come to War God Hall, just go to the Outer Sect and find me, Cheng Hao. I will definitely consider you my brother."

Xu Changqing’s mouth twitched upon hearing this. His Master had no cultivation? To be honest, he didn’t even know where his master’s bottom line was. However, Xu Changqing still smiled and said to Cheng Hao.

"Okay, my name is Hu You. I’ll definitely come, hahaha."

"Okay, then I, Senior Brother, will be going now. See you next time." After saying that, Cheng Hao left with the War God Hall and the other Discord members.

Xu Changqing came running over excitedly and said.

"Master, did you hear that? Are we going to the War God Hall now?"

Wang Yufan smiled.

"No rush. Let’s go to Heaven Flame City first and experience the local customs. As for War God Hall, we still have ten days left, so we can go there last."

Xu Changqing thought about it and realized that this made sense. Then he touched his stomach and realized he was a little hungry. Going to Heaven Flame City would be a good opportunity to get some food.

After making their decision, the two people and the dog headed towards Yan City.

About half an hour later, a huge city gate appeared, and people were coming out of the city in an endless stream. Wang Yufan thought to himself, something seems to be about to happen in Heaven Flame City.

Thinking about it, I entered Heaven Flame City.

Upon entering the city, Xu Changqing exclaimed in amazement.

"As expected of the upper domain, every cultivator walking on the street here is stronger than me."

Xu Changqing acted like he’d never seen the world before, looking at this and that all the time. Wang Yufan was speechless; it was really embarrassing to be with Xu Changqing.

"Changqing, can you be quiet for a moment? Look at those people around you, they’re looking at you like you’re an idiot."

Xu Changqing calmed down slightly after hearing Wang Yufan’s words.

Before long, the two of them, along with Wang Cai, arrived at a rather lively-looking Tian Yan building.

A waiter ran up to greet them.

"Would you like to order, sirs?"

"What delicious food do you have here?"

"You’ve come to the right place. If we’re talking about the best food in Heaven Flame City, it has to be Flame Palace. The owner here is none other than the city lord himself."

As he spoke, the waiter took out a menu.

"Whatever you’d like to eat, we have it all, and everything is clearly priced."

Wang Yufan took the menu and silently uttered a polite phrase to himself.

"Dude, isn’t this menu wrong? A plate of Spirit Chicken costs five High-Grade Spirit Stones? And two Bull Cows cost five High-Grade Spirit Stones? I won’t even mention the rest, this is just too expensive."

Upon hearing this, the waiter looked Wang Yufan and Xu Changqing up and down.

He thought, "Could these two be poor people? Isn’t this the most luxurious dish in Heaven Flame City?"

Upon hearing what the guy was thinking, Wang Yufan’s face darkened, and he secretly sent a telepathic message to Xu Changqing.

"Changqing, do you still have a few High-Grade Spirit Stones?"

After saying that, Xu Changqing held up three fingers.

Wang Yufan had ten High-Grade Spirit Stones in his own possession, plus Xu Changqing, making a total of thirteen. Then he looked at the recipe.

He stood up and said to the waiter, "Goodbye. Changqing, let’s go and eat somewhere else."

Just after Wang Yufan finished speaking, the guy shouted.

"Sir, you haven’t paid yet, and you’re just leaving like this?"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and dozens of burly men walked out from the side.

Wang Yufan looked at the waiter and asked.

"What do you mean by this? We haven’t eaten yet, why do you want money?"

"Hehehe, I forgot to tell you, even if you don’t eat here, you still have to pay. It’s my service fee, worth one High-Grade Spirit Stone."

Upon hearing this, before Wang Yufan could even speak, Xu Changqing blurted out, "You’re saying the city lord is the mastermind behind this place?"

The waiter nodded, not understanding what was going on.

Xu Changqing cursed directly.

"Damn it, since this is run by the city lord, how dare you rip off customers like this? If a mere waiter can be so greedy, then this is outrageous."

"That’s right, the rules here were set by the city lord. This place is ripping off tourists, so what can you do about it?" A deep voice rang out, and then a portly middle-aged man walked out.
