Chapter 458: Reaching a Town (2/2)
Seeing the teasing gaze Xue Wei sent them, Lin Xiao and Hei Gou suddenly calmed down and realized the same things as he had. If they were too nervous, they would invite trouble, so they took a deep breath and calmed their hearts.
Honestly, it was natural to understand why they were nervous. The people they were up against were more than double their own numbers, and one of these Saints was a Heavenly Saint, very close to reaching the next realm.
He had not reached the next rank yet, the King Rank, but even so, he could not be belittled.
Xue Wei and the others were not Heavenly Saints, so if they were to fight against this expert, they would have to use all their tricks and abilities in order to win.
This thought made Xue Wei's blood boil, and he was almost eager to find the expert to challenge him to a duel, but he knew that it was not the time to do so.
They were here to fight in a war, not to challenge strong experts. But their enemies had vanished, and all they could find were commoners.
Xue Wei and the others slowly made their way to the center of the town. It was not a massive town, but it did contain at least a couple thousand households.
In the town square was an inn, and while not many came to rest in this establishment, many came to eat and drink.
”I want a roast duck,” Luoluo suddenly said, as her eyes were glued to the inn in front of them. The scent of freshly cooked food was wafting out through the door, and Luoluo was swallowing her saliva.
Although she was a cultivator and did not need to eat to sustain her lifestyle, she was a little foodie who enjoyed good food.
Xue Wei's features softened when he heard Luoluo's request, and he nodded his head.
He had already planned on entering the inn, as it would be the best place to gain information on what was happening, so when they entered, they needed to pretend to be regular customers. As such, they needed to buy food and drinks.
As they entered, they found that it was almost full, only three tables were unoccupied, and the waiter who noticed them instantly led them towards one of the bigger tables.
Xue Wei threw an essence stone at the waiter who accepted it graciously. The table they had found was located in the middle of the inn, and they could hear everyone's buzzing voices. The bustling atmosphere was enough to give anyone a headache, but this was precisely what they wanted.
”I want some various dishes and drinks. Amongst them I want a roast duck,” Xue Wei ordered the waiter, who was somewhat puzzled as to why they were so particular about a roast duck, but it was a stable on their menu, so he hurriedly accepted the task, and went to get the dishes from the kitchen.
