Pa!
Zhou Shu slammed his palm on the counter.
He was a little angry.
“Little girl, what’s wrong with your attitude?”
This sudden smack to the counter caused the counter to shake.
Jiang Lan reached out to catch the teacup that had fallen and placed it back in its original position.
“Was I not clear enough?” Xiao Yu looked at the two and asked calmly.
She really didn’t have any other intentions. She just wanted to ask if she had not made herself clear just now.
If she hadn’t, she didn’t mind repeating herself.
If they had understood what she said, she would not say it again.
Jiang Lan felt as if this Senior Sister was mocking the other party.
But he couldn’t tell what she was thinking.
However, the two customers were a little angry.
“You two newbies, didn’t you ask around about this shop before coming?”
Jiang Lan was curious.
But he quickly remembered that he had not asked around when he first came too.
However, he would not cause trouble for no reason. He would only wait quietly.
He knew he was weak, so he had to be clear of his own position.
These two didn’t seem to know how to do so.
“Senior Sister Xiao Yu didn’t hide her cultivation yet these two aren’t afraid at all. This should be the work of the innkeeper.”
Jiang Lan came to this conclusion.
Otherwise, no matter how brave these two people were, they wouldn’t dare to speak loudly in front of them.
Xiao Yu understood this, but she did not mind.
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Jiang Lan could only reach out and move the spirit stone over.
“Customers, you can talk to me.”
Xiao Yu glanced at Jiang Lan but did not say anything. She looked down at the account book that she needed to understand.
When she was reading the account book, she suddenly heard Jiang Lan’s voice.
“Senior Sister Xiaoyu, the second cup on your right hand is about to fall off. Help me with it.”
Xiao Yu was a little surprised. She immediately looked at the cup in her right hand and saw that a teacup was about to fall.
She did not see it just now.
Did she miss it?
Xiao Yu did not think too much about it and continued with her work after putting the cup back upright.
At this moment, Zhou Shu and the girl saw the spirit stones being moved by Jiang Lan. They knew that they had finally met someone who was sensible.
“Little brother, what’s the price for the good wine? Just name it.” Zhou Shu asked.
Lu Qian looked at Jiang Lan, finally finding a sense of superiority.
Jiang Lan shook his head and politely pushed the spirit stone back.
“You two might not know how this inn works.”
“What?” Zhou Shu frowned. He felt that the other party was just trying to demand an exorbitant price.
“The good wine is personally prepared by the innkeeper. The innkeeper has gone out and had only prepared yesterday’s reservation before he left.
If you want to buy some good wine today, you will have to wait for the innkeeper to come back and personally prepare it. Other than the innkeeper, no one else has the ability to prepare the good wine.
It’s not that we don’t want to sell it to you because of the rules of the inn. It’s because the only person who can prepare it is not in.I hope the two guests can forgive me.” Jiang Lan’s voice was slightly polite.
He was neither servile nor overbearing.
Zhou Shu and Lu Qian understood what Jiang Lan was saying.
In other words, no matter how much money they offered, they couldn’t buy the good wine?
At this moment, Lu Qian spoke.
“Then someone must have made a reservation beforehand, right? Where’s his good wine?”
“There is indeed one.” Jiang Lan looked at a bottle of good wine and said.
“We shall pay double the price. Give it to us first and let him to wait for the innkeeper to come back,” Zhou Shu said immediately.
By doing so, the problem would be settled.
“Are you sure?” Jiang Lan asked.
“What is there to be uncertain about? Bring over the wine.” Lu Qian immediately said.
They were indeed in a hurry.
Jiang Lan took out a small bottle of good wine and placed it on the counter.
When the two were about to reach out, he reminded them.
“This is the good wine that was ordered in advance by Lu Jian of the Eighth Summit.”
Zhou Shu’s outstretched hand froze on the spot.
He did not dare to touch the wine.
Now he finally understood why this person wanted to confirm with him.
Because he and Lu Jian were worlds apart.
Who was Lu Jian?
He was the Eighth Summit Summit Leader’s proud disciple who had once challenged the immortals from the Heavenly Human Race.
His achievements were remarkable.
To the disciples of Kunlun, Lu Jian was a legend.
Who would dare to touch his wine?
Even if he was given ten times the guts he had, he wouldn’t dare.
At this moment, he finally understood the reality. Even those disciples who had already become immortals had to abide by the rules here.
He, a mere Foundation Establishment disciple, was actually shouting here.
This was simply too reckless of him.
At this moment, Zhou Shu kept his spirit stone and lowered his head.
“Sorry to bother you two. We’ll leave now.”
“Leave?” Lu Qian was confused.
“Who is Lu Jian?”
“Let’s go. Don’t embarrass yourself.” Zhou Shu pulled his Junior Sister and left.
Jiang Lan watched the two of them leave and kept the wine.
“Why did Junior Brother bother saying so much?” Xiao Yu asked.
She was just curious.
“They don’t know who we are. We don’t know who they are.
There is a possibility that we can’t afford to offend them too.
Since I could avoid a conflict, there is naturally no need for us to become enemies.
“Senior Sister, if you continue acting like this, you will easily make enemies.” Jiang Lan explained.
He did not intend to have any conflicts with others. He would resolve them if he could.
If the conflict could not be resolved.
He had to find a way to resolve the people who caused the conflict.
A prime example would be the Heavenly Human Race.
That was a rare occurrence.
“Junior Brother seems to be very careful.” Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan and said,
“I remember that there’s only one disciple in the Ninth Summit and you are a personal disciple. At the same time, you’re also the strongest competitor for the Ninth Summit Summit Leader’s position. Your status should be very high. ”
“Having such a mentality is very dangerous for me.” Jiang Lan looked at Xiao Yu.
He did not explain much. This Senior Sister of his should be different from him and could not understand his own way of thought.
It was not wrong for him to have a high status, but in the sect, what was most important was one’s talent. He, who was not talented to begin with, was destined to be criticized.
If he acted like the two people earlier, clamoring everywhere, he might have died in Kunlun many years ago.
He did not want to have too many interactions with others, nor did he need to.
This would reduce a lot of trouble.
Hiding in the Ninth Summit was the safest option. This was something he had experienced and proven over the years.
Every time he left the Ninth Summit, he would run into something.
Xiao Yu turned around and continued reading her account book. Then, she said softly.
“I don’t make enemies for no reason.”
Jiang Lan was surprised.
Was this an explanation?
In the end, he could only respond with a nod.
After that, the two of them stopped talking.
After waiting for some time, Jiang Lan walked out of the counter. There was a teapot outside that was about to drop.
After putting the teapot away, he planned to return to the counter and close his eyes to cultivate.
The place was as deserted as ever.
However, just as he turned around, he suddenly heard a dragon’s roar.
The commotion was huge.
Jiang Lan looked outside.
“That dragon is leaving?”
He did not have a good impression of this dragon because the other party had given him an agreement that he could not abandon for no reason.
He wondered how it would affect him in the future.
However, the opponent was too strong.
He wouldn’t say anything even if he was unhappy.
It was good that he was gone.
Boom!
All of a sudden, a loud boom was heard.
Someone landed in front of the inn.
It was a dragon.
Jiang Lan was a little nervous. Was he discovered because he had revealed his dissatisfaction with the dragon?
Xiao Yu, who was at the counter, removed the chair under her feet and revealed half of her head. She could lower her head and disappear at any time.
