Chapter 2138: Good Tea, Good Water

Chen Feng settled Zhao Hai in the inn and left. He didn’t want Zhao Hai to get into trouble. Although he didn’t have much contact with Zhao Hai, he knew that Zhao Hai wouldn’t casually offend anyone. He believed that Zhao Hai wouldn’t mess around. n--0VelbIn

Chen Feng knew that people like Zhao Hai knew their own place. They weren’t like the arrogant young masters who stirred trouble everywhere.

Because he knew this, Chen Feng felt relieved visiting his old friends. With how late Chen Feng arrived, he was confident that his friends should already be in the city.

Although Chen Feng believes that he could get a high rank because of the seal, he also knew that if he didn’t have low-ranking people supporting him, then his position would be useless. Therefore, he needed to garner support.

Those who met with Chen Feng this time were all shopkeepers from the Full Moon Pavilion. They didn’t hold too much power and most of them couldn’t cultivate. It was because of this that they all became friends.

After congregating at their meeting area, Chen Feng and his friends walked towards an inn. They chose the inn where Chen Feng was staying.

As the group was walking, another group of people appeared in front of them. Seeing this group, Chen Feng and the others’ expressions couldn’t help but change.

The people opposite Chen Feng’s group were also shopkeepers from the Full Moon Pavilion. However, they were different. All of them were cultivators. Due to the culture of the True Spirit Realm, this group of cultivators have always looked down on Chen Feng and the others.

Naturally, Chen Feng and his friends also look down on these people. The two sides never found a common ground. Although they belonged to the same Full Moon Pavilion, their difference in status caused them to have open and secret battles. However, neither side dared to go too far. They knew very well that their future and fate were given to them by the Long Clan. If they went too far, the clan only needed one sentence and they would become nothing.

The other group also noticed Chen Feng and the others. As soon as they saw Chen Feng’s group, the other group retreated. The two groups were about twenty steps apart.

Chen Feng’s group was headed by Chen Feng. Because of his ability, he became the group’s leader, and everyone was convinced by his skills. The other party was headed by a person named Lu Fang. Lu Fang was also good at business, but he’s also a cultivator. In the Long Clan, his status was slightly higher than Chen Feng, but not too high.

The two groups walked towards each other. When they were ten steps away, Lu Fang looked at Chen Feng and laughed, “Chen Feng, what gift did you prepare this time? Don’t embarrass yourself like last year.” After speaking, he laughed. The people behind him laughed as well.

Actually, the gift that Chen Feng prepared last time wasn’t bad. However, it was worse than Lu Fang’s gift. It was this fact that Lu Fang used to ridicule Chen Feng.

Chen Feng looked at Lu Fang and coldly snorted, “Don’t worry about me, Shopkeeper Lu. But I wonder what Shopkeeper Lu prepared this year. In any case, I’m sure that your gift is worse than mine.”

Lu Fang coldly snorted, “Worse than mine? Keep dreaming, Chen Feng. I really don’t know why the clan keeps using you as a shopkeeper. A waste like you should have been expelled from the clan a long time ago.”

Chen Feng looked at Lu Fang and sneered, “Why, do you think that you know more than the clan? If you do, then why not write a letter to the clan. Let them decide to remove me from my position and drive me out.”

Lu Fang heard Chen Feng’s words and coldly snorted. He doesn’t have a good response to Chen Feng. He knows that Chen Feng got his position because of his ability. The clan didn’t go wrong in trusting Chen Feng’s skills. Moreover, the clan’s decisions weren’t something that a small shopkeeper could question. Therefore, Lu Fang didn’t say anything.

At this time, a person next to Lu Fang said, “Shopkeeper Chen looks calm. But the clan has rules. If the gifts you give are ordinary ten times in a row and you don’t gain the favor of the clan head, then you won’t be able to maintain your status in the future.”

Chen Feng coldly snorted and said, “You don’t have to worry about me.”

Lu Fang looked at Chen Feng’s appearance, he didn’t know why Chen Feng looked calm. But he also has stiff lips. Lu Fang couldn’t help but sneer, “Let’s see if you can be calm after the Clan Head’s birthday.”

At this time, Chen Feng’s eyes wandered behind Lu Fang and couldn’t help but freeze. This caused Lu Fang and the others to be confused. When they followed Chen Feng’s gaze, they found two people walking behind them. One was an old man with white hair while the other was a cultivator with an ordinary appearance. The old man looked like a clan member while the cultivator looked unfamiliar. Nobody from the two groups knew why Chen Feng suddenly froze.

Chen Feng’s heart was quite turbulent at this time. This was because one of the two people was Zhao Hai. Although he doesn’t know the identity of the old man, he was sure that he was from the Long Clan.

Chen Feng couldn’t understand how Zhao Hai could know someone from the Long Clan less than a day after arriving in Coiling Dragon City.

At this time, Zhao Hai also saw Chen Feng. He cupped his fist and said, “Shopkeeper Chen, you’re here. I was just about to look for you. I want to inform you that I’ll be returning a bit late.”

Chen Feng gave a stiff nod. He looked at Zhao Hai and didn’t know what to say. He was still wondering how Zhao Hai knew the old man from the Long Clan.

The old man who was with Zhao Hai looked at Chen Feng and smiled, “So this is Chen Feng. I recognize you, but we haven’t spoken yet. Young man, you’re doing very well. I also want to thank you for bringing such an excellent person to Coiling Dragon City. Let me borrow him for a while, you can go ahead.”

The old man wasn’t polite at all to Chen Feng. However, Chen Feng wasn’t dissatisfied. Although he didn’t know the status of the old man, he seemed to be in a high position from the tone of his voice. Most importantly, the old man said that he was familiar with Chen Feng’s appearance, but he couldn’t remember when he saw it.

Chen Feng didn’t dare ignore the old man, “Sir is too polite. If you need Zhao Ming, you only need to ask.” The old man nodded and then led Zhao Hai to a small restaurant nearby.

Seeing this, Chen Feng became even more confused. But the people next to him looked at each other. Their eyes were shining. Even Lu Fang’s eyes shone. Nobody knew what each other were thinking.

At this time, a shopkeeper next to Chen Feng asked, “Old Chen, who was that fellow?”

Chen Feng knew that they were asking about Zhao Hai, not the old person. No matter what status the old man held, it wasn’t something they could look into. Therefore, Chen Feng answered, “He came here with me. He’s a guest elder of the Blackwood Group in Roaring Flames City. His name is Zhao Ming. He helped me before, so I promised to bring him into the clan. We just arrived, and I allowed him to roam around the city. I didn’t expect him to get to know that Elder.”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper next to Chen Feng said, “Old Chen, this seems like an opportunity. I reckon Zhao Ming did something that attracted the Elder’s attention. If that’s the case, you need to develop your relationship with Zhao Ming.”

Chen Feng replied, “There’s no need. Zhao Ming isn’t the kind of person to forget someone. Alright, let’s go back to the inn. When Zhao Ming comes back, everything will be revealed.” The others nodded and then walked back to Chen Feng’s inn. As for Lu Fang, he has long been forgotten.

When Zhao Hai and the old man entered the restaurant, a waiter immediately ran over. Seeing the old man, the waiter couldn’t help but stare. Then they immediately said, “Second Grandfather, why are you here? Do you want to eat? I’ll immediately tell the kitchen to prepare.”

The old man smiled and said, “So it’s Little Seven’s turn today. Go to the kitchen and get me a few decent dishes. I invited someone to eat. If you embarrass me, I will kick your butt.”

When the waiter heard the old man, he quickly complied. He turned around and rushed to the kitchen. After a while, he came back to Zhao Hai’s table and prepared tea. He offered a cup to the old man and Zhao Hai. At the same time, he gave Zhao Hai a glance before leaving.

The old man invited Zhao Hai, “Little Brother, have some tea. It seems like the kid is very attentive. This tea is good.” The tea was very fragrant. It was precisely because of this that the old man said that the tea was good.

Zhao Hai nodded and said, “The tea is indeed good. This should be a heavy tea made according to a secret recipe. Its flavor is quite heavy. The tea leaves should be over a hundred years old. At the same time, the water used should be plum blossom snow water. When paired with the tea, it gives the tea an unyielding and prideful fragrance. Good tea, good water!”

Zhao Hai studied the tea ceremony in the Space. As soon as tea was brought over, he didn’t need to drink it to analyze it. He could tell the tea’s composition by its smell. As soon as Zhao Hai said this, the old man’s eyes lit up, “Little Brother, you know about tea?”
