Chapter 130: The Inside Story of the Gourmet Shop (Second Update)
Inside the member group.
Zhang Sanfeng: "Huh, now that you mention it, I really haven't seen him!"
Wang Dadong: "Tsk tsk, he didn't get punished and made to kneel at home, did he?"
Abbot Xuan Ci: "Amitabha, if a requiem is needed, this old monk is willing to perform one for him free of charge!"
Zhou Weiqing: "Good lord, there's someone even more miserable than me!"
Ning Caichen: "No way, isn't that the gentleman Yue Buqun? How could he possibly not pull through!"
Great Ming War God: "No rush, no rush, let's wait two or three days for him first!"
Rock Lee: "Two or three days with no word, he must be done for!"
Stark: "We're all members here, when the time comes let's hold a funeral for him."
Great Qin Shi Huang: "Mm, this side of me can chip in some gift money!"
At this moment, in the world of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Yue Buqun looked at the messages in the member group and instantly felt helpless.
He wasn't even dead yet, was he?
You lot have already arranged the gift money.
Do you want him dead that badly?
It was just a mere painting scroll—could he, Yue Buqun, fail to handle it?
Don't be ridiculous—how could that be possible!
"Thud!"
In an instant, Yue Buqun abruptly dropped to a half-kneel.
"Hear me out, this painting scroll really was an accident."
"I didn't want it at first, but everyone pitched in for one, so I bought it in a muddled daze."
"I truly never expected that this would be inside!"
For a moment, Yue Buqun spoke with such sincerity that tears of regret even swirled in his eyes.
The sudden scene left Ning Zhongze stunned on the spot.
Years of affection, faced with Yue Buqun's chain of killer moves, in an instant she was at a loss.
"Believe me, I'll destroy this painting scroll right now!"
Saying so, the internal force within Yue Buqun surged, rushing straight toward the painting scroll.
"Poof!"
In an instant, the vast internal force shook the entire painting scroll into powder.
Watching the scene unfold before her, Ning Zhongze grew doubtful.
Could she really have misunderstood him?
Seeing Ning Zhongze's doubt, Yue Buqun slowly rose and drew her into his embrace.
In an instant, the heroine of a generation, Ning Zhongze, was taken down on the spot.
And at this very moment, Yue Buqun posted what had just happened into the member group.
He, Yue Buqun, not only had to debunk the rumors, but also show off while he was at it.
Inside the member group.
Yue Buqun: "Sorry about that, it took a bit longer to handle!"
A simple line of text, paired with a video clip.
It instantly piqued the interest of everyone in the member group.
When they tapped open the video and finished watching the whole affair, the crowd sighed in admiration once more.
When it comes to shamelessness, Yue Buqun really is the best!
Zhang Sanfeng: "Good lord, this old Daoist has learned something!"
Abbot Xuan Ci: "Amitabha, judging by Benefactor Yue's proficiency with the operation, he is clearly a habitual offender!"
Wang Dadong: "Good lord, even this works?"
Great Ming War God: "Isn't this too much of a sacrifice? The painting scroll just gone like that?"
Stark: "That's nothing impressive either, you destroyed the scroll—what's there to show off about!"
Ning Caichen: "Mm, mm, that's right, let me say first, I'm out of stock on my end."
Watching the words of everyone in the member group, Yue Buqun couldn't help but laugh.
Don't be ridiculous—did they really think that just because he destroyed the painting scroll, there'd be no female ghost?
Yue Buqun: "I already put the female ghost away long ago, that painting scroll was just an empty scroll!"
Yue Buqun: "Give me a few days, and I'll move her somewhere else."
Zhang Sanfeng: "Damn, you're going that far?"
Abbot Xuan Ci: "Amitabha, a habitual offender indeed, truly a habitual offender!"
Great Ming War God: "Good lord, you can even swap her out? You actually thought of this?"
Zhou Weiqing: "I lost out, I lost big, how did I not think of that?"
Great Qin Shi Huang: "Even if you thought of it, it probably wouldn't work—you don't have that deep a pool of internal force!"
Ning Caichen: "Mm, mm, that's right, there's my magic power on that scroll, breaking it open isn't easy!"
Wang Dadong: "Tsk tsk, I'll just quietly watch and grab some melon on the side!"
Rock Lee: "Mm, mm, anyway I'm not getting involved!"
Jiang Yuyan: "You people are really too much—the immortal bestowed such a great opportunity, yet all you think about is this sort of thing!"
Zhang Sanfeng: "Ahem, Miss Jiang, that's not quite fair—this is serious business for us too!"
Great Ming's War God: "Exactly! This is a major life event for us!"
Ning Caichen: "There are three forms of unfilial conduct, the greatest of which is to have no descendants. A major life event — how could we not count it!"
Stark: "Tsk tsk, having gained such an immortal's blessing, shouldn't we just lie flat?"
Stark: "As long as we occasionally go taste some fine food, we can grow stronger. This feeling is simply too awesome."
Abbot Xuan Ci: "Amitabha, those words are reasonable."
Wang Dadong: "Ahem, I also don't think there's any problem."
Great Qin Shi Huang: "Miss Jiang, what have you discovered? Speak freely!"
Within the membership group, only Ying Zheng at this moment seemed to have noticed something, and spoke up to ask.
On the other side, Jiang Yuyan gave a cold snort.
Jiang Yuyan: "Haven't you all noticed? The immortal's food prices have been rising all along!"
Wang Dadong: "Uh, that? Of course we noticed, but does that even matter?"
Zhang Sanfeng: "Exactly, this old Daoist saw it too, but at the current prices, we should still be able to afford it."
Ning Caichen: "Even the most expensive food now hasn't broken ten thousand taels of gold. We can afford it."
Zhou Weiqing: "Mm, I also don't think there's any problem."
Great Ming's War God: "Mm, exactly. Even if the price multiplied tenfold, I could still afford it."
Stark: "This kind of worry simply doesn't exist. The only thing I'm poor in is money!"
Tang San: "Miss Jiang, did you think of something?"
Great Qin Shi Huang: "Miss Jiang, just say it straight!"
Within the membership group, Zhu Qizhen, Stark, Zhang Sanfeng and others were all puzzled.
Worried about the food prices?
That was purely unnecessary, because a mere few hundred taels of gold — they could afford it.
And just as everyone thought this way, Jiang Yuyan smiled disdainfully.
Jiang Yuyan: "Then what if the price is no longer in gold?"
The calm words fell, and within the membership group, it instantly fell silent.
Following Jiang Yuyan's words, everyone was instantly stunned.
No longer in gold — how could that be possible?
In the food shop, every dish is clearly priced in gold. How could it possibly not use gold anymore?
And just as quite a few were thinking this way, Ying Zheng on the other side furrowed his brow tightly.
At this moment, he thought of something, and his expression turned ugly.
And with the membership group's silence, the more people looked at Jiang Yuyan's words, the more their hearts began to pound with dread.
At this moment, apart from Ying Zheng, Tang San, Stark, Zhu Qizhen and others all thought of a scene.
That scene was the black rice wine brew in the food shop!
Currently, the only food in the food shop without a marked price.
Connecting it back to Jiang Yuyan's words, many people's hearts began to waver.
Could it really come to that day?
