Chapter 1105: Chapter 1102: Xu Wendong Is Scheming
Just as Xu Wendong hadn’t reacted yet.
Mu Chuan looked at him again, with a stern face and full of displeasure said: "Ao Ji brought you food late at night, shouldn’t you thank him?"
The young man named Ao Ji smiled casually and said, "This is our duty, no need for thanks."
Mu Chuan said indifferently: "We humans have four limbs and should theoretically earn our living. Now all our food and drink are provided by the Dragon Clan. How can we not remember this kindness?"
"One should know gratitude and return favors, otherwise what difference is there from those demon beasts without intelligence?"
His face was serious, as if discussing an exceedingly solemn topic.
Ao Ji didn’t say much else, smiling while looking at Xu Wendong: "My name is Ao Ji, if Young Master Xu needs anything in the future, feel free to instruct me."
Xu Wendong replied politely: "Thanks Ao Ji."
Mu Chuan burst into anger: "Xu, you’re just a Foundation Establishment ant. What qualifications do you have to call Ao Ji brothers?"
Ao Ji waved his hand dismissively and said lightly: "It’s just a title, it’s not important!"
Mu Chuan said: "Ao Ji, you are mistaken. Though it’s just a title, it reveals whether this child has awe for the Dragon Clan!"
Xu Wendong was furious: "Damn it, are you a fan dog? Just because of a title, you conclude that I lack awe for the Dragon Clan?"
"What’s wrong, just because we rely on the Dragon Clan, do we have to abandon our dignity and please them deliberately?"
"Damn it!"
"The Dragon Clan has not enslaved us, they’ve given us enough respect. Even the Dragon Clan knows to respect us, why should we humans degrade ourselves?"
"I tell you, respect is kept in your heart, not like you pleasing others deliberately, doing that only backfires."
Before, he didn’t understand Ao Cheng’s hints before he left.
But now.
He’s enlightened.
The Dragon Clan dislikes Mu Chuan’s sycophantic behavior towards them.
Well.
Not to mention the Dragon Clan dislikes, even Xu Wendong dislikes this fellow human, whose hypocrisy is quite discomforting.
Ao Ji smiled then looked at Mu Chuan: "Mu Chuan, it’s late, let’s leave first, let Young Master Xu rest early!"
Mu Chuan hurriedly made an inviting gesture: "Ao Ji, please!"
Saying this, he turned back and glanced at Xu Wendong, a ferocious light flashed in his eyes.
It was as if saying, daring to go against me, surely you will pay a heavy price.
Xu Wendong didn’t bother with him, choosing to ignore his threats, then sat cross-legged tasting the food Ao Ji had sent.
Two wild fruits, a fine wine jug, and a piece of roasted meat.
The taste of the wild fruits and roasted meat were quite ordinary, but that jug of fine wine was very much to Xu Wendong’s liking, the alcohol content wasn’t high, with a faint aroma, drinking it refreshed his mind, instantly washed away bodily fatigue.
A quiet night.
Next day.
While Xu Wendong was cultivating, a young man in a sky-blue robe swaggered over.
"You are Xu Wendong?" Yun Zhan looked at Xu Wendong coldly.
Xu Wendong slowly opened his eyes, calmly asking: "What’s the matter?"
Yun Zhan: "I heard you’re arrogant, daring to disrespect Mu Chuan yesterday, even challenge his dignity? Xu, are you fed up with living?"
Xu Wendong smiled and said: "So you are his lackey, wanting to teach me a lesson?"
Yun Zhan was taken aback, then a glint of icy light flashed in his eyes: "In my eyes, you are just an ant, what difficulty is there in teaching you a lesson?"
With those words, he struck with his palm.
In a flash.
The terrifying palm wind burst like a mountain flood, striking Xu Wendong’s chest with thundering speed.
Pfft!
Xu Wendong spat blood, heavily crashing into the stone wall, looking extremely weak, appearing exceptionally desolate.
"This is the consequence of offending Mu Chuan!" Yun Zhan’s face was filled with pride: "Remember, from now on abide by Dragon Clan rules. If Mu Chuan instructs anything, you need to reach his abode immediately, do you hear?"
Xu Wendong seemed to be intimidated by the beating, nodding repeatedly: "Yes yes yes, from now on I am Mu Chuan’s man, I will definitely listen to him, if he wants me to go east, I will never go west!"
"That’s more like it!" Yun Zhan huffed disdainfully, then strode out of Xu Wendong’s cave.
After Yun Zhan left, Xu Wendong’s previously weak expression instantly vanished, not only that, but a trace of sinister smile even appeared in his eyes.
Yun Zhan’s strength isn’t strong, also Emergence Stage.
For Xu Wendong, he’s the unbeatable presence in the same realm.
Not retaliating, but displaying such pitiful appearance is rooted in the preparation for the match in two days.
After all, Ao Cheng mentioned this match involves twelve participants, including a Tribulation Crossing Realm expert.
To say the least, facing such a match, Xu Wendong has no chance of winning, even reaching top three is a tall order.
Hence, he must devise other means to advance.
After all, Ao Cheng also mentioned.
No matter heaven collapses, the match will proceed in three days.
If only one person participates, even without a match, he can directly cultivate Nine Dragons Refinement Technique.
Xu Wendong’s method is simple.
Poison.
A kind of poison that can paralyze cultivator’s divine soul.
This poison won’t harm cultivators’ lives but can temporarily drain them of cultivation level, returning to mortal state.
However.
If Xu Wendong blatantly poisons these twelve powerful participants, even if he advances and cultivates Nine Dragons Refinement Technique, he will inevitably incur their wrath.
Therefore.
He needs to pretend allegiance, making others think he has become Mu Chuan’s underling.
Thus, even if he poisons those strong competitors, who would suspect him?
After all, he’s just a Foundation Establishment ant, others surely wouldn’t believe he has such nerve.
They will surely think it’s Mu Chuan’s idea.
Indeed, at that time, the unlucky one will surely be Mu Chuan.
To him, it is utterly a strategy to kill two birds with one stone.
Thinking this, a sinister light flashed in Xu Wendong’s eyes, then he left the cave, found Ao Ji, and explained his idea.
Upon learning Xu Wendong desired some beasts to cook himself, Ao Ji readily agreed to his proposal.
Because he is really unskilled at cooking, Xu Wendong preparing his own food reduced his workload.
Xu Wendong had hardly returned to the cave when Ao Ji carried over a slaughtered snow velvet deer.
Xu Wendong expressed his gratitude, then started getting busy. After an hour.
An enticing aroma of meat permeated, sprinkled with pepper and cumin on top, looking exceptionally tempting.
After the skewers were cooked, Xu Wendong first stored some in Minor World, letting Hong Luan and others taste it.
Then, he eagerly took the skewers, full of respect, went to Mu Chuan’s cave···
