845 Hard to Reject Your Kindness!
After half a month, they had finally stepped onto the Starlight Continent!
Under the sun, Chu Feng and the others did not stop. They passed through an enormous beach that was reflecting golden light.
The heat wave gave a different feeling.
Up ahead, Mo Tianji pointed the way. Everyone sped towards the nearest city.
In the Starlight Continent, only cities had the teleportation stargate built by the Heavenly Book Academy.
Chu Feng had already made up his mind. Even if the price of a teleportation was astonishing, he had to take it!
There was not another way.
They did not have time to spend another half a month traveling.
Chu Feng still had more than ten thousand drops of Star Domain Essence left. It should be enough.
If there was really no other way, it was said that at the Stargate, one could also use equivalent treasures to exchange for Star Domain Essence. However, one would be taken advantage of badly.
But if he had no choice, this was the only way.
When everyone arrived at the nearest city, Huading City, there were already many travel-worn faces coming and going at the city gate. Clearly, they were all warriors who had rushed to the Heavenly Book Academy immediately after receiving the news.
“Let’s go straight to the Stargate Teleportation Point.”
Chu Feng said directly, then, under Mo Tianji’s lead, they walked all the way to the center of the city, in front of a huge arch.
There were experts guarding the arched door.
The surroundings were already full of warriors who wanted to take the Stargate.
At the entrance, there was a lazy middle-aged man. He was bald, but his clothes were abnormally gorgeous. He was leaning against a recliner and shouting lazily.
“Anyone who wants to go to the Starlight Sacred City, prepare the Star Domain Essence in advance. 100 drops for the Heaven Martial Realm, 200 for the quasi-divine-grade experts, and 1,000 for Lesser Gods. Don’t make me wait for you!”
At this moment, someone behind the bald man reported, “Sir, the last batch of teleportation has ended. We can let the next batch in.”
The bald man nodded lazily.
“Alright, another 50 people. Keep the order. Don’t cut in line.”
Just as he finished speaking, the people ahead entered one after another.
However, there were still some latecomers who squeezed forward and quietly handed the bald man a small bottle. It could be seen with the naked eye that it contained a lot of Star Domain Essence.
The bald man immediately beamed and waved his hand to let this person cut in front of him.
However, this scene made the warriors behind him dissatisfied and they discussed animatedly.
The bald man’s expression turned cold.
He suddenly stood up, and his surging aura sent everyone in front of him flying.
This extremely wretched-looking bald man was actually a Lesser God!
“Shut up! If anyone dares to talk nonsense again, get lost! Don’t even think about riding the Stargate! Bunch of bumpkins, I’ll teach you a lesson today. No matter who you are in your small place, when you come to the Starlight Continent, just keep your head down. Here, I’m the heavens!”
The crowd instantly fell silent.
However, when the bald man got excited, he actually started to show off his might.
“You guys made me very unhappy just now. Now, I announce that the Stargate is under maintenance today! Everyone, come back tomorrow!”
With that, he lay down comfortably on the chair.
The soldiers behind him also locked the entrance.
The crowd looked at each other, but they did not dare to say anything.
Chu Feng was speechless.
Why did he encounter these things everywhere he went?
As the saying went, it was difficult to deal with small officials. Was this what they were talking about?
What to do now?
Kill him directly?
That was clearly unrealistic.
These lackeys were clearly working for the Heavenly Book Academy. Perhaps they had some status. Otherwise, they would not have the chance to guard the Stargate.
He was willful. What could you do?
Just as Chu Feng was thinking of a solution, Mo Tianji slowly walked forward.
“Didn’t you hear what I just said? The Stargate is under maintenance today! Get lost!”
The bald man narrowed his eyes and glanced at Mo Tianji in disdain. He thought that it was another country bumpkin from a small place who rushed forward in a moment of anger.
The bald man had even made up his mind that if this hothead dared to make a move, he would definitely make him suffer.
It was just nice to add some fun to this boring life.
But at the next moment…
Mo Tianji coldly took out an ancient token from his pocket and gently waved it in front of the bald man.
The bald man jumped up as if he had seen an imperial edict.
His eyes widened as he stammered, “Senior… Senior Brother!”
“Wei Dahai, a student of the 10032nd batch of the alternate academy, greets you!”
As he spoke, his forehead was already covered in sweat.
Mo Tianji was still cold.
“Is the Stargate still under maintenance?”
The bald man shook his head like a rattle.
“No, no! Please come in! We’ll teleport you alone!”
Mo Tianji did not speak, but he turned around and shouted, “Boss, come over. It’s done.”
Chu Feng and the others rushed over upon hearing that.
He couldn’t help but grin at the bald man.
“Kid, you’re quite capable.”
Mo Tianji hurriedly smiled apologetically.
“After all, I’ve been in the Academy for so long. I can still be useful.”
This scene shocked the bald man.
What Mo Tianji had just taken out was the identity token of the Heavenly Book Academy!
That was a symbol that only official students could possess!
And those who could be recognized by the school were definitely geniuses!
In the Starlight Continent, the status of an official student of the Heavenly Book Academy was enough for him to do whatever he wanted.
It was hard to imagine that such a genius was willing to call a country bumpkin boss…
What was wrong with this world?
Just as the bald man was in a daze, Mo Tianji berated again.
“What are you waiting for? Teleport!”
The bald man was no longer as arrogant as before. Even though Mo Tianji looked like a quasi-god, he did not dare to have any temper. He hurriedly smiled obsequiously.
“Senior Brother, people from our academy enjoy a 20% discount when teleporting. About the Star Domain Essence…”
Chu Feng was about to pay. He was already very satisfied with a 20% discount. There was a high chance that the Star Domain Essence in his hands was enough.
But at this moment, Mo Tianji’s expression suddenly turned stiff as he said faintly, “What Star Domain Essence? Do you mean the jade bottle you secretly hid just now? Or did someone abuse his power just now and claim that the Stargate was under maintenance for no reason?”
“I’ve already recorded the evidence. If I hand it to the Discipline Department, what do you think…”
Hearing this, the bald young man’s expression immediately turned bitter as he trembled.
“You’ve returned from a long journey, Senior Brother. As a junior brother, I naturally have to do my part. I’ll cover the teleportation fee for you and your companions!”
Hearing this, Mo Tianji nodded in satisfaction.
“Thank you, Junior Brother.”
He turned around and smiled at Chu Feng.
“Alright, Boss. It’s difficult to refuse my junior brother’s kindness. He insisted on paying the teleportation fee for us, so you don’t have to worry.”
At this moment, the expression on Chu Feng’s face was extremely interesting.
Good lord, you can do that?
