It was Wutian's first time seeing such a harsh environment and simple facilities in such a huge city. It was no wonder that Feng Mo had described the Ninth and Eighth Cities as garbage dumps.
Wutian guessed that the environment of the Eighth City was similar to that of the Ninth City.
However, there was one thing that could not be denied. It was very lively. The streets were filled with people and various sounds were intertwined, forming a mighty sound wave that echoed between the Heavens and Earth.
"Damn! How can people live in such a place? "Cang Zheng's face was filled with disgust. He wanted to turn around and leave immediately.
Wutian looked at him strangely for a while and shook his head, "For cultivators, the earth is their bed and the sky is their blanket. It's enough to have a place to live peacefully. Why do you care about such things?"
Then, he looked at Shi Shi and reminded her with a smile, "There's no time to lose. Go to the Eighth City and find Sun Lei to get the recommendation letter. But remember, you can't force him. If he rejects you, give up immediately. I'll think of another way."
After thinking for a while, Wutian grabbed the little one, the King Of Worms, and the Bird Saint from his arms and warned them, "Go with Shi Shi and protect her. If anything happens, I'll hold you responsible."
"Don't worry! With the Frog Lord around, the little girl won't lose a single hair. " The little one patted its chest and promised. Then, it, the King Of Worms, and the Bird Saint went into Shi Shi's arms and took a nap.
"Brother, I'll go then." Shi Shi smiled. She was extremely charming and looked exceptionally stunning.
"Go! Be careful. "Wutian nodded.
"Mm, I know."
After watching Shi Shi leave, Wutian withdrew his gaze and spread out his Divine Sense. After a while, he said calmly, "Let's go! Let's find a restaurant and fill our stomachs. To be honest, I miss the smell of food. "
After saying this, he did not care whether Cang Zheng followed him or not. He walked into the depths of the street.
"To the restaurant?"
Cang Zheng stared blankly, and the anger in his heart suddenly rose. Li Shi Shi went into the tiger's den just to give you a recommendation letter, but you didn't know how to help. Instead, you went to the restaurant to indulge in wine and women. You really are a shameless bastard!
"That's not right. Why am I in such a hurry? It's none of my business. How strange." Having thought this through, the anger in Cang Zheng's heart was instantly extinguished. He leisurely followed behind Wutian, looking here and there, feeling extremely satisfied.
"Greetings, Lord Li Feng …"
"Greetings, Lord Yan Kuan …"
Almost everyone in the Ninth City knew about Wutian and Shi Feng's appearances. Hence, when they saw the two of them walking past, they greeted them respectfully.
"Lord Li, Lord Yan, I haven't seen you for a hundred years. Is everything alright?" When Wutian and Shi Feng walked into a pretty good restaurant, a chubby middle-aged man quickly greeted them and flattered them.
This restaurant had a total of two floors. It was the only building in this area that was built with stone bricks. Located in this place, it had the aura of a king. However, compared to the City Lord's Mansion, it was far inferior. Compared to the restaurants in Asura City and other cities, it was not even worth mentioning.
"Lead the way. Same old place."
Looking at the fat and oily boss in front of him, Wutian only gave a faint order and did not say anything else.
From Zhuang Luochen's memories, he learned that the three of them were frequent customers of this restaurant. They were also very familiar with the owner of this restaurant. His name was He Zhi, and he was known as Fatty He in the Ninth City. However, based on their personalities, they naturally did not take this person too seriously. They often came here to eat and drink for free.
It was also because of this that Wutian came to this restaurant.
"Yes, yes, I have already calculated that the two of you will be here in a few days. Hence, I have already sent people to completely clean Fengya Pavilion and prepared the best food and wine for the two of you to enjoy. This way, please!"
After He Zhi finished speaking, he retreated to the side and made an inviting gesture. Then, he turned around and led the way to the second floor while flattering, "Ever since the two of you went to guard the altar, I have been looking forward to it day and night. Now that I have finally seen the two of you again, I can finally feel at ease."
"By the way, why didn't Lord Zhuang come with the two of you?" He Zhi asked casually without turning his head.
"There are some things that should not be asked," Wutian said indifferently.
"Yes, yes, Lord Li is right. This way, please!"
After a while, under He Zhi's lead, the two of them walked into an independent private room. The decor was very simple but it was very clean. After a casual glance, Wutian estimated that this private room could be considered the most luxurious in the Ninth City.
On the dining table that was about ten feet wide, there was a variety of dishes and hot steam rising from them. Wutian did not stand on ceremony at all. He sat on a chair at the side and picked up a piece of unknown meat with his chopsticks and placed it in his mouth. After chewing it carefully, he immediately nodded his head in satisfaction.
"He Zhi, you are very considerate. You may leave first! Without my orders, no one is allowed to enter and disturb us. "
"The two of you have guarded the altar for a hundred years and must be tired. Then, please enjoy yourselves. If you need anything, just let me know." He Zhi cupped his hands and smiled obsequiously. Then, he turned around and walked out of the room, closing the door tightly behind him.
Glancing at Cang Zheng, who had a strange expression on his face, Wutian smiled faintly and grabbed the wine pot on the table. Without using a cup, he directly held the pot and drank from it. He kept praising it. Good wine! Good wine!
"Bastard!"
Cang Zheng glared at him fiercely. However, he saw that the other party had no intention of paying attention to him. He retracted his gaze and looked at the delicious dishes on the table. Suddenly, his appetite was aroused. He picked up his chopsticks and put a piece of meat into his mouth.
"Sigh! If you don't want to live, then go ahead and eat it. "However, at this time, he suddenly heard Wutian sigh. His tone was very calm.
"What do you mean?" Cang Zheng's arm stiffened as he asked suspiciously.
Wutian raised his head and drank a mouthful of strong wine. He said faintly, "Nothing. You can try to eat some and see if you will die later."
Cang Zheng was furious. He slammed his palm on the table and said angrily, "You better speak clearly for me. Don't f * cking mystify me!"
"Sigh!" Wutian shook his head and sighed, "No wonder your mother wanted me to help her train you. With your observation skills and careless personality, if it weren't for me, I'm afraid your soul would have already gone to heaven."
"Can't you just get to the point!"
Cang Zheng gritted his teeth and said word by word. His eyes were spitting fire. The thing he hated the most was Wutian's attitude of having everything under his control. In front of such a person, he felt like a hopeless idiot. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.
"Sigh!"
Wutian sighed again. He looked extremely disappointed and unteachable. Then, he waved his hand and the piece of meat that Cang Zheng was about to put into his mouth rose into the air. Then, the power of fire gushed out and wrapped around the piece of meat.
Cang Zheng frowned slightly. He didn't know what was going on. However, his emotions stabilized a little. He sat back in his seat and watched quietly.
However, as time passed, Cang Zheng's face gradually showed a hint of surprise. Finally, the surprise disappeared and was replaced by shock. However, more than that, it was anger.
"It's poisonous!" Cang Zheng slammed his palm on the table and stood up once more. His eyes shot out a monstrous killing intent, enough to burn the heavens with his anger!
Under the power of fire, the piece of meat had already disappeared without a trace. Instead, there was a drop of water that was as clear as a creek, sparkling and translucent. Moreover, after Wutian dispersed the power of fire, a sweet fragrance wafted out.
If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely think that this was a drop of spiritual liquid refined from spirit medicines. But, as the Young Pavilion Master of Myriad Treasure Pavilion, he was extremely experienced and knowledgeable. Just by smelling this fragrance, he knew that this was a drop of poison that could kill a Divine Transformation realm powerhouse!
Sure enough, with a light flick of Wutian's finger, the water droplet landed on the opposite wall with a whoosh. This place immediately evaporated into thick black smoke with a sizzling sound. In the blink of an eye, a hole the size of a human head appeared in their line of sight.
"You bastard, you actually dared to poison us! If I don't tear down this restaurant today, I swear I won't rest!" Cang Zheng was enraged. He smashed the chair behind him and moved his feet, wanting to rush out the door.
"Stop!" Wutian shouted.
Cang Zheng frowned. He sneered, "What? Could it be that the heaven-defying Wutian who shakes the five continents will also have times when he is afraid? "
"I'm not afraid." Wutian shook his head. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and picked up a piece of poisonous meat. Without any hesitation, he placed it in his mouth and began to chew.
"The taste isn't bad." Wutian seemed very satisfied as he nodded his head. Immediately, under Cang Zheng's shocked and angry gaze, he raised his head and drank a mouthful of strong wine. At this time, he said lightly, "It's useless for you to go find He Zhi. He's just a small character who was forced into a corner."
"You actually dared to eat it?!" Cang Zheng's eyes widened, filled with disbelief. This bastard seemed to have eaten a piece of meat from the start, so how was he still alive?
"Are you not afraid of poison?" Cang Zheng asked tentatively.
"Afraid! There's no one in this world who isn't afraid of poison. However, this kind of poison is enough to deal with you, but it's far from enough to deal with me. "Wutian said indifferently.
Cang Zheng heard this and turned to the table. He sized up Wutian for a moment and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of monster are you? Why do I feel that you're not human? "
"Haha!" Wutian laughed. He didn't speak and continued to drink.
Cang Zheng pursed his lips and frowned. He asked, "Is the wine you drank also poisoned?"
"Yes, but because of the addition of this poison, the taste of the wine has become particularly different. It feels especially refreshing. How about it? Do you want to have a sip?"
"Forget it. If you want to die, don't drag me down with you." Cang Zheng shook his head. He was afraid. After hesitating for a while, he finally couldn't hold back and humbly asked for advice, "When did you realize that there was poison in these dishes?"
