1409 Ninth Young Lord (1/2)
They could have continued moving forward, but Lu Changwei was adamant on setting camp here.
That meant that the Overgrown Forest Hidden Treasure was just nearby, and the reason Lu Changwei wanted to stay the night was because he was waiting for someone!
Just as expected!
After the tents were built, more than a dozen of men joined them at the camp.
Lu Changwei brought his group of lackeys to greet the men.
Chen Xiaobei did not need to be told that that was the venerable Ninth Young Lord.
”I thought that Lu Changwei would open the hidden treasure by force, confirm the legend first, and then invite the Ninth Young Lord over! Who would've expected Lu Changwei to invite him over now?!” Chen Xiaobei was even more excited now. ”It looks like the Overgrown Forest hidden treasure really does exist! If they don't make a move tonight, I will have to come up with a plan. I'll need to find a way to get to the hidden treasure before they do and swipe it clean!”
”Mr. Chen, what are you thinking about? You seem very distracted today, very strange.” Wenren Muyue walked over to Chen Xiaobei, her hands behind her back, like an obedient little sister.
”I wasn't thinking about anything.” Chen Xiaobei shrugged. ”Everyone had gone to greet the honorable guest. Why aren't you there with them?”
”Please! What honorable guest? He's just another pervert!”
This made Chen Xiaobei laugh. ”Lady Wenren is a gentle and graceful lady. For you to describe someone like that could only mean that that bugger is no good! There's no need then to go and greet him!”
”Mr. Chen, you really have a way with words!” Wenren Muyue gave him a slight smile. ”Ah, forget it. Let's go be polite or he'll make things difficult for us later!”
”I have to go too?”
”Mm, yes!” Wenren Muyue nodded. ”That guy is not just a pervert, he's also easily offended and holds on to grudges! If you don't go and he takes offence, your life might be in danger!”
This piqued Chen Xiaobie's interest. ”This guy is that powerful? If I don't bow to him, my life will be in danger? Now, I really want to go and take a look at him!”
”Let's go.” Wenren Muyue nodded, put her smile away and went with Chen Xiaobei.
”Greetings, Ninth Young Lord! It's great to finally be able to meet you in person! You really are so masculine and good looking!”
”Greetings, Ninth Young Lord! I've heard a lot about you! You are really famous! My admiration for you is like the waters of the rivers!”
”Greetings, Ninth Young Lord!”
Chen Xiaobei and Wenren Muyue were approaching the group when they heard all the buttering.
What was more insane was that they had to line up to do it!
”Who is this guy?” Chen Xiaobei was burning with curiosity.
”The master of the Temple, aka The Lord of Northern Wilderness, has nine sons.” Wenren Muyue explained. ”This is Ninth Young Lord, the Lord of Northern Wilderness's youngest and favorite son!”
”Oh, I get it now. He's the number one rich brat of Northern Wilderness Starfield! No wonder he dares to act in such arrogant manner!”
It was no wonder the Lu family was willing to gift the entire Overgrown Forest hidden treasure to this Ninth Young Lord.
With his status as Ninth Young Lord and his father's adoration for him, the Lu family's investment in him would benefit Lu Changwei's future greatly as well as the Lu family's future!
