Chapter 1164: What United Hall?
That evening, Qi Xiong indeed held a banquet in the canteen to entertain the Stone Tribe elders, together with Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and others.
On the table, seeing the food they had longed for, the Stone Tribe elders almost burst into tears, weeping with joy.
After exchanging a few pleasantries and drinking several cups of wine, Qi Xiong laughed and said.
Don't just stand there, start eating.
Thank you, Upper Tribe.
Haha, then we...... Holy crap.........
The Stone Tribe elders had been waiting for these words, and they immediately started eating; seeing this, Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and the others refused to be outdone, and instantly the table erupted into chaos.
Seeing this, Qi Xiong's mouth twitched; 'Damn these guys, can't they wait for me to finish speaking?'
He still had more to say, but looking at the situation, it seemed no one wanted to listen.
Finally they got to eat this hot meal; since leaving their homeland, the Stone Tribe elders had never gone a day without craving it.
Indeed, back in their homeland, they had eaten to their heart's content.
Now that they had left their homeland and the distance between the two tribes' territories was great, they couldn't manage to have this meal every meal for a while.
Now that they had the opportunity, they naturally wanted to eat their fill.
Over the course of the meal, Qi Xiong simply couldn't find a chance to speak; everyone just focused on eating, completely ignoring everything else.
After the meal, Qi Xiong said with a twitching mouth.
It's not early anymore; you should rest early.
Having said that, everyone went their separate ways.
I had thought the Stone Tribe elders would leave the next day, but when breakfast time came, Qi Xiong saw them in the canteen.
You haven't left?
Somewhat puzzled, he asked, 'You've already offered the treasure, why are you still staying here?'
Moreover, what the hell are you doing in the canteen? This is the canteen of my Dao Yi Shengdi.
Not only the Stone Tribe elders, but even Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and the others were there.
Facing Qi Xiong's inquiry, the Stone Tribe First Elder respectfully replied.
'Going back would be idle; by staying here we can follow the Upper Tribe's orders and handle any matters.'
Huh???
What do I have to do?
'Nothing, you just need to go back quickly.'
Dao Yi Shengdi has nothing going on at all; besides, you elders have all come out—has the Stone Tribe neglected its affairs?
Actually, the Stone Tribe really has nothing to do; if there were any matters, the Great Saints below would handle them.
Moreover, the situation in Haotu Shijie has gradually stabilized.
The Human Race dominates, having established rules, so other tribes no longer dare act as recklessly as before.
Originally, a Great Emperor elder was needed to hold the fort, but now the tribes never attack each other, so their return would be fine.
It would be better to stay here and eat a few more meals.
Watching the Stone Tribe elders lining up for food among the crowd, Qi Xiong felt a bit dazed.
Afterwards, at lunch and dinner, he likewise saw the Stone Tribe elders' figures.
Moreover, even the next day, these guys showed no intention of leaving.
Anyway, whenever mealtime came, they could always be seen promptly in the canteen.
After three days straight, Qi Xiong felt numb, and in the end he forcibly drove the Stone Tribe elders away.
Having been driven out by Qi Xiong, on the way back a Stone Tribe elder said with some reluctance.
'I haven't eaten enough—what should we do?'
'That's enough; haven't we already eaten for three days?'
'But going back there's nothing to eat.'
'That's not necessarily true; next time we can just offer another treasure.'
'What a good idea.'
'So whose turn is it this time?'
'I'll do it; I have a Dao-comprehending ancient tree that's just right.'
'Sure, sure.'
'Then let's go back and rest for a few days?'
'Good.'
Before they had even left the Human Race's territory, the Stone Tribe elders had already begun planning the next occasion.
These three days were truly a feast for them, especially the first night's banquet—the dishes, the flavor, so satisfying.
I thought that once the Stone Tribe left, it would be over, but in the following period Qi Xiong was left feeling completely numb.
One major tribe after another came.
Moreover, each time they came, either Yunluo Shèngzhǔ and company accompanied them, or Yaochi Shèngzhǔ and company did.
And the reasons for their coming were all exactly the same—damn it, they were all here to offer treasures.
The treasures they offered were indeed good things, but damn it, it's not worth having so many Great Emperor elders escort them.
Furthermore, as soon as they arrived, they'd stay three to five days without leaving, and every day when the canteen opened for meals, their shadows could be seen.
'Are these guys here to offer treasures, or just to mooch meals?'
No need to guess; Qi Xiong saw through their intentions.
Offering a measly treasure—these guys are just here to mooch meals.
The reasons were all kinds of strange, but he could tell that these folks were all coming for Ye Zhangqing.
Look at them when it's Fàn diǎn, they're each more excited than the last; even the Yunluo Saint Lord and the Yaochi Saint Lord are just the same.
That day, after dinner, Qi Xiong, the Yaochi Saint Lord and the others, along with Ye Zhangqing and company, were chatting leisurely in the backyard of the Canteen.
Qi Xiong looked at the Yaochi Saint Lord with a resentful face and said.
Does your Yaochi Holy Land have nothing to do? Why do you keep running over here all day?
In less than half a month, this is already the third time Qi Xiong has seen the Yaochi Saint Lord.
You, as just a Saint Lord, keep coming to my Dao Yi Shengdi every day—what are you doing?
Both are Saint Lords, but Qi Xiong is busy every day to the point of exhaustion; how come when it comes to the Yaochi Saint Lord, she seems to have nothing to do?
Hearing that, the Yaochi Saint Lord laughed and said.
The Holy Land doesn't have much going on either; I'm also worried those treasures might be in danger, so I just came along on the way.
On the way?
What way? We're one at Wan Yao Pass, the other at Tianhong Guan—what way?
Before Qi Xiong could speak, the Yaochi Saint Lord immediately spoke up first.
Qi Saint Lord, I think our Three Holy Lands are closely connected; we should set up a joint hall, so that whenever something happens we can respond promptly.
Huh???
What the hell is a joint hall? Qi Xiong was completely baffled, while the Yaochi Saint Lord just kept talking to herself.
I think this Canteen is pretty good; look, the backyard is spacious. If we could carve a few Teleportation Arrays, we could get to any incident right away.
Huh???
He hadn't even figured out what was said before, and the next sentence left him even more bewildered.
What the hell, just a Canteen? Look around—this is the Canteen of my Dao Yi Shengdi, what are you doing with a joint hall?
Besides, if anything really happened, this joint hall would be utterly useless.
He gave the Yaochi Saint Lord a deep, lingering look; Qi Xiong said with a resentful face.
There's no need for that, right?
Sigh, we need to take precautions beforehand.
No need at all.
Is this guy actually here for the joint hall? This is just so you can eat conveniently.
Never mind the rest; you guys are getting more and more outrageous, even carving Teleportation Arrays into my Holy Land's Canteen.
But the Yaochi Saint Lord seemed to completely not hear what Qi Xiong said, just kept talking to herself.
I've discussed it with the Yunluo Saint Lord; he also thinks it's feasible. Wait a couple days for him to come, we'll discuss it and then get started.
Huh???
