Chapter 500: Chapter 500: The Heavenâs Pride Gather Like Clouds Chapter 500: Chapter 500: The Heavenâs Pride Gather Like Clouds The entire Drunken Fairy Tower only had one vacant spot, and that was the balcony on the second floor.
All other seats were filled with guests.
Without a doubt, the balcony offered the best view in the house, providing a clear sight of the street scenery.
Every young scion from the major powers that entered wanted to snatch that spot, but once they heard it was reserved for Young Master Zhang, they were all scared out of their wits.
Unless Young Master Zhang himself came, the server wouldnât dare to recklessly give the seat to someone else, for offending Young Master Zhang would cost him more lives than he could afford to lose.
âGentlemen, I am truly sorry. You must also be aware that today is the Auctioneerâs seventieth birthday, and all the major powers of the Wuji Domain are here. The Tavernâs patrons are all genius disciples and young masters from these great powers, and none of them dares to take this seat,â the server followed up.
The Tavernâs patrons were mostly genius disciples and young masters from the major powers of the Wuji Domain, places where ordinary people would not dare to venture.
Most of these prodigious younger generation members had cultivated to the Heavenly Human Realm. Even those who hadnât reached the Heavenly Human Realm were at the eighth or ninth level of the Tianyuan Realm.
Among these geniuses, there were also Alchemists, Artifact Refiners, Forging Masters, and Inscription Masters.
Forging Masters and Inscription Masters, who were rarely seen on regular days, had also come to Xingjie City today.
Feng Wuchen said with a light smile, âLittle brother, I know thatâs Zhang Junlanâs seat, we are his friends.â
âFriends?â The server blinked in surprise and took a closer look at Feng Wuchen.
âStrange, isnât Little Zhang here yet? We agreed to meet at the Drunken Fairy Tower,â Liu Qingyang looked around but saw no sign of Zhang Junlan.
âI havenât seen Dong Zhantian either; theyâre probably still on their way,â Miao Qingqing suggested.
Ling Xiaoxiao said, âThe big celebration starts tomorrow, and so many people have already arrived. Zhang Junlan probably wonât come until tomorrow.â
âOh, right! Young Master Zhang did say a few of his friends were coming over. Could it be you guys?â the server suddenly said, recalling Zhang Junlanâs instructions.
âIndeed,â Feng Wuchen nodded, the server was just following orders, so Feng Wuchen didnât make it hard on him.
âMy name is Liu Qingyang!â Liu Qingyang tapped his chest.
Upon hearing Liu Qingyangâs name, the serverâs face changed dramatically.
âYes, yes, there is indeed someone named Liu Qingyang. I am terribly sorry, please come this way,â the server said, repeatedly showing respect and hospitality, feeling cold sweat on his back.
He was secretly glad that he hadnât offended Feng Wuchen and his friends.
âGentlemen, please donât blame me, the servant dares not disobey the duties Young Master Zhang has assigned, please donât tell Young Master Zhang, or Iâll lose my head,â the server pleaded with a hint of desperation.
âItâs alright, go about your business,â Feng Wuchen said indifferently.
âYes, yes! Iâll serve the dishes immediately,â the server nodded repeatedly and hurried off to prepare the food and drinks.
âYoung Master Zhang really is different, that status is truly enviable. No one in the whole Wuji Domain dares to offend him,â Liu Qingyang said with a hint of jealousy.
âThe number one Artifact Refiner talent of the mainland, envious, arenât you? Zhang familyâs young master, do you envy him? Itâs your loss for not being him,â Miao Qingqing teased.
âQingqing, how can you say that? My heart is broken,â Liu Qingyang instantly feigned a sorrowful expression.
Miao Qingqing didnât hesitate to retort, âJust piece it back together then.â
âPfft.â Ling Xiaoxiao couldnât help but laugh at this, covering her mouth with her hand.
âSo beautiful! Who would have thought that upon arriving in Xingjie City one would encounter such an unparalleled beauty!â
âYoung Master, look quickly, thereâs a beauty whoâs even more gorgeous than our eldest apprentice sister!â
âShe is so beautiful she could be a descendant of the heavens; could it be that a fairy has descended to the mortal realm?â
The appearance of Ling Xiaoxiao immediately caught the attention of everyone on the second floor of the tavern, with all eyes falling on her, and the patrons on the first floor also looked up to the second floor.
Ling Xiaoxiao, in a pink gauze dress, had a delicate face that was like a work of art crafted by nature, capable of toppling cities and nations with her beauty.
Ling Xiaoxiao, holding Feng Wuchenâs arm, undoubtedly filled countless others with envy.
But as they envied and were jealous, the people on the second floor suddenly realized that Feng Wuchen and his companions were walking towards the balcony seats.
âWho are they? Do they have a death wish? Thatâs Young Master Zhangâs spot!â
âTheyâve really got some nerve, daring to sit in Young Master Zhangâs spot. What is the waiter doing?â
âCould they be friends of Young Master Zhang?â
âImpossible, if they were friends of Young Master Zhang, why isnât he here?â
The various prodigies were all abuzz, looking at Feng Wuchen with eyes that clearly carried a hint of hostility.
âBig Brother Feng, why are they all looking at us?â Liu Qingyang, noticing the unusual gazes, couldnât help but ask in a low voice, noting the many hostile glances as well.
âBecause this is Young Master Zhangâs spot, and they all know it,â Ling Xiaoxiao said with a light laugh.
Feng Wuchen didnât speak and just looked out at the pedestrians on the street.
âThat guy must be no ordinary person. His cultivation is deeply concealed; itâs impossible to see how profound it is. With so many geniuses here, yet he remains so calm,â a genius young master thought quietly to himself, observing Feng Wuchen.
The more powerful geniuses all kept their attention on Feng Wuchen.
âIf we could get on good terms with Young Master Zhang, it would be greatly beneficial for us,â a prodigy said with a slight sneer.
âIndeed, now is a good opportunity,â the other prodigies nodded in agreement.
Although these geniuses came from various major forces in the Wuji Domain, their status was nowhere close to Zhang Junlanâs, who was the true young lord of Wuji Domain!
Therefore, they all wanted to curry favor with Zhang Junlan, even just a little bit of a connection would be good. If they could forge a deep relationship, it would assure their rise to greatness and could even change their destiny forever.
And now, to curry favor with Zhang Junlan, someone had already taken the initiative to step forward.
âYou lot have some nerve! How dare you sit in Young Master Zhangâs spot; have you grown tired of living?â A young man quickly stepped forward and shouted coldly, glaring at Feng Wuchen and his group.
A tall and thin man disdainfully said, âNot just anyone is qualified to sit here. For example, you, and even we wouldnât dare to take this spot.â
Feng Wuchen and his companions completely ignored them, not even sparing them a glance, with Liu Qingyang just focusing on drinking his tea as if he hadnât heard anything.
âIâm talking to you! Are you deaf? Get out of here at once!â another young man shouted angrily, his attitude extremely arrogant.
Hearing this, Liu Qingyangâs brow furrowed slightly, and he coldly retorted, âYouâre the one whoâs deaf! The person who should âget lostâ is you.â
âThis kidâs got guts, sitting in Young Master Zhangâs spot is one thing, but he even dares to tell Young Master Wang to get lost. Young Master Wang is the young lord of the Carefree Sect in the Wuji Realm,â
âTsk tsk, thereâs going to be a good show now. Young Master Wang has a fiery temper,â
âIgnorant fools, soon theyâll understand who they canât afford to offend,â
The geniuses on the second floor were all reveling in schadenfreude, adopting a mentality of watching a spectacle unfold.
Young Master Wang, with a ferocious face, clenched his teeth in anger and said, âI think youâve grown tired of living! Daring to sit in Young Master Zhangâs spot? Iâll just have to give you a good lesson on behalf of Young Master Zhang, you bunch of blind fools!â
