"Don't you know we are with our special guest? How dare you barge inside?" Patriarch Ming scolded the guard instead. "And who is this lady?x
"So you didn't have her come?" The Heavenly Warrior asked. "It doesn't matter. Let her stay. Send the guard out."
"She claims that your son has been killed," the guard exclaimed, fearing for his life as he saw angry Patriarch Ming. "That's why I couldn't delay and brought her to you."
"My son has been killed? Nonsense! Who would dare to kill my son?" Patriarch Ming yelled, shocked.
He glared at Ji Lin. "Answer me now! Did he really die? If you're found to be lying, you'll be sorry!"
The Heavenly Warrior also frowned. He thought the lady was brought for his entertainment, but she was to deliver such a news. Someone had killed the son of Patriarch Ming? This was intriguing.
"That's right. He went to our restaurant, but he ended up in a conflict with a guest. That guest killed him," Ji Lin answered. "I came here to inform you myself."
"Guest? Who is he?! Is he still there?"
"He is still inside, but I don't think you should do anything against him," Ji Lin said, keeping her head down. "He is really powerful. He is from the city!"
"From the city?" Patriarch Ming exclaimed, frowning. This made things complicated. If he was from the city, it was risky. He might be a member of some powerful clan in the city. Even if he could be killed here, his family would come for revenge.
Patriarch Ming looked at the Heavenly Warrior. "Senior, can you please help me? If it's a Heavenly Warrior, you can punish him! You have the backing of the Emperor! Even the city Leaders won't raise their voice against you! Please do justice for my son!"
The Heavenly Warrior didn't speak. He kept playing with the breasts of the lady in his lap as he thought about it.
"Why should I help you?" he asked, smirking. "What's in it for me?"
"I-i would give you my ancestral treasure! It is worth a lot! If you help me, you won't be disappointed!" Patriarch Ming said.
"Your treasure? Do I even need to help you to get that? I can simply force you to hand that over," the Heavenly Warrior lazily said.
"You don't know what treasure I'm talking about. Even if you force me, how will you know I gave you the right treasure? Please help me! I would genuinely make you happy! I promise you won't regret your decision to help me!" Patriarch Ming replied.
The Town Elder didn't chime in. He just sat back and watched. Even though it was his town, that was just in name. In reality, all the power was with the Ming Clan.
He was really intrigued by the situation though. Someone from the city had killed Ming Clan's heir? Why did Ming Zhu have to mess with someone from the city? It was as if he was looking for death. In any
'That kid was certainly getting more and more arrogant day by day. It's not bad that he's gone,' He thought.
"Fine. I'll help you. But I want that treasure after that. And if it's not as amazing as you described, then you'll be the one regretting," the Heavenly Warrior said, smiling.
Patriarch Ming nodded.
The Heavenly Warrior placed his hand around the waist of the lady on his lap before pressing his lips on hers. After a long kiss, he made her stand up. "I'll be right back, sweetheart. Stay prepared for a long night."
He stood up and walked to Ji Lin.
He looked at Patriarch Ming while pointing to Ji Lin. "After I deal with that city kid, I want this lady for the night too."
Ji Lin's face went pale. She had come here to alert the Ming Clan to not do anything stupid since the enemy was from the city, but who knew that a Heavenly Warrior was going to be here to give them more confidence.
Moreover, this Heavenly Warrior was so lecherous that he was thinking about sleeping with her? Instead of saving her restaurant, she found herself in danger as well.
Now the only option she had of escaping was if Zhu Chang was stronger than them all. If he could kill this Heavenly Emperor, she was going to escape.
She also wanted to tell them that Zhu Chang was from the Heavenly City at the start, but she believed that if she did that, the Heavenly Warrior might drop his plan to go there. On the other hand, he would still desire for her since she was here.
So the only option that remained was to let him think that he was from any ordinary city and not anywhere special. That was, the Heavenly Warrior could be arrogant and upset Zhu Chang to be killed later on.
"Accepted! Kill the person who killed my son! That treasure will be in your hand and that girl in your bed!" Patriarch Ming agreed, not even talking to Ji Lin.
He didn't care who Ji Lin was or if her family agreed or not. He was from the Ming Clan who could do anything. No matter who the girl was, she was going to listen to him! If she didn't, then she was to be forced to listen!
The Heavenly Warrior licked his lips as he gently caressed the butt of Ji Lin. "Sweetheart, take us to that man so we can get done with this fast and get to bed."
Ji Lin was disgusted at being touched by a person like this, but she couldn't do anything. She simply ignored the touch and started escorting him.
...
Food was served before Zhu Chang. He was provided with the best of dishes that the restaurant had to offer as no one wanted to offend him.
His action had scared Ji Miali to her core. She just wanted him to finish eating and leave satisfied.
Ji Shan picked up a spoon and started eating. Blood Dragon Emperor and Snake Monarch also started.
"Hah, it feels so good to get some food in my body once again! Since I'm so hungry, this food feels so delicious!" Blood Dragon Emperor said.
"I don't think it's because you're hungry. This food is certainly great. Even this Monarch likes it," Snake Monarch agreed.
"Can't you two keep your mouth closed even while eating?" Zhu Chang let it, rolling his eyes.
"You spoke while eating too," Snake Monarch pointed out. "Don't worry. This Monarch knows the manners. The rules of not speaking while eating are for humans only.. We are Emperors and Monarchs here."
