"Order whatever you like, Master has money!"
As soon as they entered the private room, Mo Xingjian, in high spirits, waved his hand and said.
Yan Xiaohu’s spirits lifted immediately upon hearing this. He quickly grabbed the menu and was about to start ordering when the Hall Master of Jade Dining Hall walked in with a cheerful smile.
"Greetings, Senior Mo. Wow, your luck is incredible! You are the thousandth group of customers today at Jade Dining Hall, so today’s meal is on the house. Feel free to order to your heart’s content, don’t hold back!"
said the Hall Master of Jade Dining Hall with a wide grin.
The three of them were stunned at first upon hearing this, but their faces soon lit up with joy. What a stroke of luck!
"Then I won’t hold back!" Yan Xiaohu exclaimed excitedly. He had been eyeing a few dishes at Jade Dining Hall for a long time but had always hesitated because of the high prices. Finally, he could indulge himself.
At this moment, the Hall Master of Jade Dining Hall cheerfully walked over to Zhou Qing, patted his Storage Bag, and took out a large banner with an expectant look on his face, "Nephew Zhou, could you sign your name on this for me?"
Zhou Qing took a closer look. The banner had four flamboyant characters that read, "It tastes amazing."
It was clear that they wanted him to endorse Jade Dining Hall.
He smiled wryly. After all, he was eating their food for free, and Jade Dining Hall’s dishes were indeed delicious. So he could only sign his name at the bottom right corner of the banner.
Watching this, Yan Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, then leaned back in his chair with a dejected look.
What thousandth customer? What free meal?
How could you even come up with this?
Even if I, Yan Xiaohu, were starving to death, I wouldn’t eat this charity food from Jade Dining Hall after walking out of here.
"So delicious! Master, you must try this Braised Spirit Trout, the taste is just out of this world!"
Yan Xiaohu said with his mouth stuffed, enthusiastically urging Mo Xingjian to try it as he continued to eat voraciously.
"Li Si, the Glazed Crystal Shrimp Balls! I specially ordered this, just for one it’s a mid-grade Spirit Stone."
"Wow, so this is the Spiritual Source Jade Dew Soup. It smells amazing, I have to taste it to find out why it’s so expensive."
"Uncle Hall Master, another plate of Jade Spirit Cloud Rice, no, make that three, with extra honey."
In the private room, one after another, plates of exquisite Spiritual Vegetables were brought in. Yan Xiaohu was thoroughly enjoying himself, eating non-stop, his round face now puffed up.
Even Mo Xingjian was fully satisfied, a contented smile never leaving his face. They definitely benefited from Zhou Qing’s presence today, greatly improving their meal experience.
"Senior Yan, have we ordered too much? This meal must cost at least four or five top-grade Spirit Stones." Zhou Qing asked, concerned while eating.
Though it’s a free meal, ultimately it’s the Hall Master footing the bill. Eating too much didn’t seem right.
Yan Xiaohu waved it off nonchalantly, "Don’t worry, Jade Dining Hall is loaded. Besides, we can always pack the leftovers. It’s such delicious food; wasting it would be a shame. We should seize this opportunity to eat as much as possible."
Shortly after, the three of them, with round, full bellies, lazily reclined in their chairs, contentedly rubbing their stomachs, letting out long, satisfied burps, feeling extremely comfortable.
They were stuffed. The food filled with Spiritual Power coursed through their bodies, making their limbs tingle, even emitting a unique fragrance.
Mo Xingjian, picking his teeth, said after a pause, "Though I’m proud of you, now that your names are on the Kill List, you must be vigilant. Many will be aiming for the bounty or to make a name for themselves. You must be careful."
Zhou Qing nodded. He understood this well. The list was like a "piece of meat," attracting countless covetous eyes. They would have to be extra cautious in the days to come.
Yan Xiaohu, now more open-minded after being well-fed, burped and added, "Of course, I’ve identified nine major hazards."
The other two immediately looked at him.
Yan Xiaohu lazily analyzed, "First, you can’t run around recklessly anymore; second, as Master said, many eyes are on you for fame and fortune; third, no one will team up with you or even dare to be around you for fear of being collateral damage."
"Fourth, you’ll be under constant surveillance, with no privacy whatsoever; fifth, every move you make, even your hidden cards, could be exposed, like Elder Blood Bone calling you treacherous and deceitful after you left."
"Sixth, I haven’t figured out yet; seventh, everyone is discussing it; eighth, you all know already; ninth doesn’t need mentioning."
Cyan Feather Immortal Sect!
Yuan Ya looked at Zhou Qing’s name on the Kill List, along with Meng Xing, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Wasn’t that maniac Meng Xing killed by Li Si? How is it credited to Junior Brother Zhou Qing?
Quickly, she recalled the events of that day and began to piece it together.
No wonder Zhou Qing approached Meng Xing first, employing a sneak attack to seriously injure him before using a Secret Technique to increase his Cultivation for pursuit. It became clear that the gap in their Cultivation levels forced him to do so.
