Chapter 697: Fun
For a playboy who was used to debauchery, being unable to move for the rest of his life was worse than death.
"Brother Yi, I cleaned up that idiot for you, don't you want to praise me?" Zhong Yu blinked obediently, looking cute and asking for praise.
"Well done, I'll add a chicken leg for you." Xu Tian really picked up the serving chopsticks and put a chicken leg into Zhong Yu's bowl.
"Thank you, Brother Yi!" Zhong Yu happily gnawed on the chicken leg, completely different from the fierce look when she was cleaning up Zhou Mingrui.
Compared to her relaxation, Xu Tian's heart was a bit heavy.
Even the Fourth Elder's illegitimate son dared to provoke the Wolf King in public, showing that the current Azure Wolf Hall was no longer a situation where the Wolf King dominated. The Fourth Elder and several other elders united, basically having already taken most of the Wolf King's power into their own hands. Now, not to mention that he, an impostor, felt tricky, even if the real Wolf King returned, facing such a situation, he might not be able to suppress them.
He just ordered Zhong Yu to give Zhou Mingrui a lesson, and this move would definitely annoy Zhou Lao Si.
But for some reason, he just couldn't stand Jiang Chuan and the others being mocked and humiliated by Zhou Mingrui.
Perhaps it was because Jiang Chuan gave him enough trust.
Anyway, the grudge had already been formed. If the Fourth Elder wanted to settle the account with him later, he could only adapt to the situation.
Xu Tian was silently thinking about the next countermeasures, while Zhong Ling, who had been silent and indifferent, suddenly spoke.
"Brother Yi, Zhou Mingrui is Zhou Lao Si's son. Although he wasn't put into the Zhou family genealogy, this is no secret in the circle of Kun Cheng's dark forces. You formed a grudge with him today, and Zhou Lao Si definitely won't let it go."
"I'd like to see how they won't let it go."
Xu Tian curled his lips slightly, revealing a mocking smile, pretending that he didn't take the Fourth Elder seriously at all.
"Alright, tiger aunt, why do you always boost others' morale and destroy Brother Yi's prestige?" Zhong Yu shouted somewhat dissatisfied. "Today, we have a rare opportunity to get together. No one is allowed to go back until we play until dawn!"
"Brother Yi, shall we go to the arena to stroll around later? It seems there's a champion tournament today. If we're lucky and win the bet, we can make a small profit!" Xu Tian's mouth twitched. It was playing again.
Couldn't this girl Zhong Yu learn from Zhong Ling and be a bit more steady?
The two girls around the Wolf King, one too rigid and dull, the other too jumpy. Being by his side easily gave him a feeling of split personality.
Furthermore, he really didn't like the bloody fighting in the arena.
Although it was a point-stop competition in the arena, fighting in the underground arena didn't pay attention to any rules. If you were inferior in skill, even if you were beaten to death, it was normal.
In case Zhong Ling let him go on stage to test him, his end would either be being exposed or being beaten to death.
Fortunately, the thing Xu Tian was worried about didn't have a chance to happen. Almost as soon as Zhong Yu finished speaking, Zhong Ling stood up and said.
"You go, I'm not interested."
"Hmph, it's better if you don't go, no one will spoil the fun!" Zhong Yu didn't know if she had quarreled with Zhong Ling, but today she would find an opportunity to quarrel with Zhong Ling.
Of course, most of the time it was just her one-sided provocation.
As for Zhong Ling, she remained indifferent and couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her.
"Brother Yi, let's go!"
After coming out of Qingyun Zhai, Zhong Yu pulled Xu Tian's arm and got into the car without saying a word, and Jiang Chuan followed and sat in the passenger seat.
Less than half an hour later, they arrived at an arena built in imitation of the ancient Roman Colosseum.
The so-called arena wasn't just for watching fighting and boxing.
The entire arena had eight floors. Except for the underground floor which was the arena, the other eight floors each had their own functions.
Weapon shops, gambling houses, antique shops, stone gambling halls, massage parlors, beauty salons, food courts, and shopping centers were all available.
Of course, because it was mixed with fish and dragons here and was the place most frequented by people of dark forces, ordinary Kun Cheng residents with ordinary strength and status didn't dare to venture into such places to play.
Even in Kun Cheng, where famous families gathered, there was a distinction between three, six, and nine classes.
"Master Chuan, Miss Zhong Ling, Miss Zhong Yu!"
A man who looked like a manager saw Jiang Chuan and the others and immediately greeted them with a smile.
"Are you getting less and less aware of the rules? Our boss is still here, and you can't see him?" Jiang Chuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he scolded sternly.
"Boss?" The man was slightly stunned, and his eyes immediately fell on Xu Tian.
The person Jiang Chuan called boss... was only the Azure Wolf Hall's Wolf King.
Could it be that the young man in front of him was the Wolf King?
But the Wolf King had been missing for five years, and there were even rumors that he had died outside. How could he suddenly appear now?
Although the man was shocked, on the surface, he still wore a flattering smile.
"It's my eyes that are clumsy, not recognizing His Highness the Wolf King. The Lord has an extraordinary demeanor, and after not seeing him for a few years, he is even more handsome. I didn't recognize him..."
"To apologize to the Lord, all the expenses of the Lord tonight will be on my account."
The man lowered his head and looked submissive, but in fact, he was observing Xu Tian's reaction calmly.
Xu Tian put on a straight face, his tone carrying disdain.
"On your account? Do you think the Azure Wolf Hall has fallen, and I don't have money to pay the bill when I go out?"
"I wouldn't dare!" The man was scared into a shiver and hurriedly explained. "It's my slip of the tongue, how could you be short of money..."
This temper that flared up at the slightest disagreement, this sense of oppression, it seems it really was the Wolf King.
Xu Tian looked expressionlessly at the man who seemed to be scared out of his wits in front of him, thinking that the Wolf King really had a notorious reputation; just one sentence could scare the middle management of this arena like this.
"Stop talking nonsense, Brother Yi just returned, what fun things do you have here recently, introduce them to us!"
Jiang Chuan rolled his eyes impatiently and urged.
"My Lord, the stone gambling hall has recently arrived with a lot of raw stones, do you want to go and see?" Although the man hadn't greeted the Wolf King, he had heard that he had a lot of research on antiques and jade, so he guessed he would like stone gambling.
Xu Tian had some research on antiques and jade because he had to help Tang Bingyan, but he didn't have much interest in stone gambling, an activity where you could lose everything if you weren't careful.
Ever since he returned to the Azure Wolf Hall, many people had used the opportunity of sending him antiques to test him, probably because the Wolf King himself was experienced in identifying antiques. If it were an impostor, it would be easy to be seen through.
However, most of the things they sent were porcelain, so Xu Tian didn't let them find any flaws. ===== CHAPTER 698 =====
