Chapter 788 - Baiyue Nation (1/2)
Xiao Luo was left speechless. They could not even enjoy a meal without getting into a troublesome commotion.
The boss and his servant could not convince Ghost and Xiao Luo to leave immediately. So, they prepared their dishes as fast as they could and served them hurriedly. They hoped the both of them would finish eating quickly and leave the place before Zheng Feihan came back with more people. The last thing they wanted to see was another fight breaking out in their restaurant.
“So yummy. The food is so yummy!”
Ghost did not bother to behave like a lady and feasted on the delicacies like a hungry beast. Watching how she devoured the food, one would not imagine that she belonged to the Sucking Blood Clan.
The Duck Emperor behaved no better and could not resist the temptation of the tasty delicacies as well. He jumped onto the table and started chewing on an oily roasted pig throttle with much relish.
Compared to the girl and the duck, Xiao Luo looked far more cultured when he ate. He was picking at his food using a pair of chopsticks with proper etiquette.
An elder and a young man approached them with friendly smiles.
“Hello!”
Two men approached the table and greeted Ghost and Xiao Luo. They were none other than Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi.
“Who are you guys?” Ghost asked as she prepared to protect her food, seeming worried that two men standing before her were asking for some of hers.
“Hello, we are also from Mu City Academy,” Luo Jinshi said with a smile.
Mu City Academy?
When Ghost heard that, a glower of hostility showed in her eyes, “So you are with those guys who were here just now.”
“No, no, no. Please do not misunderstand. Although we are also from Mu City Academy, we are not with them. The people of Mu City Academy do not bully people just because of their background, unlike Zheng Feihan and his gang,” Luo Jinshi explained immediately.
“Oh.” Ghost then let down her guard and continued to munch on the food.
“Is there anything you want from us?”
Xiao Luo questioned calmly. The teleportation portal to travel to his next destination was at the Mu City Academy. Although he would not try to get close to it, he would not want to distance himself from it. Zheng Feiyuan was an irritant who got on the wrong side of Xiao Luo and deserved a lesson. The incident was unfortunate.
“Hello Brother, I am Luo Jinshi. This gentleman is my mentor, Hu Qingsong. I have a question for you. Or rather, a doubt that needs clarification,” Luo Jinshi asked in a friendly manner.
Hu Qingsong nodded and added, “That’s right. Young Luo and I witnessed what happened between you and Zheng Feihan just now. If I am not wrong, you are currently a middle-level Martial Master, right?”
Xiao Luo nodded and continued eating the food. He replied, “That’s right.”
Hu Qingsong looked at Ghost and continued, “This beautiful girl has no signs of True Inner Force. She comes across as an ordinary person, yet she defeated Zheng Feihan, who is a Great Martial Master, in one move. Your performance was equally splendid when you easily defeated the two Great Martial Masters. What you guys did was simply mystifying and unbelievable. It is hard to understand how the cultivation ranking, which has been in use in the Arcana Land for tens of thousands of years, seems not to work on you guys.”
Indirectly, he asked them how they had defeated Zheng Feihan and the other two Great Martial Masters with their lesser capabilities.
Xiao Luo smiled and said, “Sometimes, what you hear may not be the truth. Similarly, the same applies to what you see!”
He had reached the stage where he could remain in his original pure self. So, he could suppress his strength, and others could not detect his full capability. Ghost belonged to the Sucking Blood Clan, and they operated on a system different from humans. So, it was not unusual she did not emit any traces of her True Inner Force.
“What you hear may not be the truth, and what you see may not be the case…”
