"What's going on?"
Di Zun was confused. It was just a casual remark. How could someone say that he was being pretentious?
How could he dare to be pretentious in such a situation?
If he hadn't met Shen Gongbao, he would have been able to do whatever he wanted in Wanjie Lou with his eighth-rank cultivation.
However, after meeting Shen Gongbao, Di Zun realized that some people with ordinary strength could still trick him to death.
Before figuring out the rules of Wanjie Lou, he had to keep a low profile.
"You'll understand when you see for yourself."
The man sitting opposite Di Zun shook his head and pointed at a tea list on the table, which listed the tea provided by Zhonghua Tower.
"Ancient Era Tea: 18888 spiritual points."
"Bodhi Seed Tea: 8,888 spiritual points."
"Peach Dew: 8,888 spiritual points."
"Enlightening Ancient Tea: 7,888 spiritual points."
"Bejewelled Nectar: 6,888 spiritual points."
… …
When Di Zun saw this, he picked up the tea list on the table and looked at it with a puzzled expression. When he saw the shocking numbers on the tea list, Di Zun was so shocked that he almost stood up. He cast a grateful look at the person opposite him.
There were tea, juice, and wine on the tea list, but the prices were too shocking.
He had drunk Enlightening Ancient Tea many times when he was the Lord of the Heavenly Court. For him, Enlightening Ancient Tea wasn't a shocking tea.
However, to him now, every single tea on the table was an incomparably expensive luxury.
He didn't have enough spiritual points to pay for the tea.
If he bought one of the tea, he would be dumbfounded when he had to pay for it.
He had just been fined for trying to suppress the God's Space in Wanjie Lou.
If the man sitting opposite him hadn't stopped him, he would have eaten and dashed again.
Di Zun could imagine the consequences of eating and dashing in Wanjie Lou.
If he was lucky, he would be kept in Zhonghua Tower to wash dishes. If he was unlucky, Zhonghua Tower would report him to Wanjie Lou, and Wanjie Lou would probably punish him as a warning to others. After all, he was the first person who dared to eat and dash in Wanjie Lou.
"Many thanks, fellow Daoist."
Di Zun wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead and showed an ugly smile as he expressed his gratitude.
Either of the two punishments was terrifying to him.
If he were to be sued by Wanjie Lou, he would have to pay a hefty price to settle his crimes.
If he stayed in the Zhonghua Building to wash dishes, the last trace of his domineering aura as a Venerable Sovereign would disappear completely.
Who had ever seen a Rank 8 expert become a waiter washing dishes in the Myriad World Tavern in order to pay for the expenses of eating like a tyrant?
This kind of tragic ending was probably the first of its kind in Wanjie Lou.
"Fellow Daoist, you don't have to do this."
The man sitting opposite Di Zun waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
Should he tell Di Zun that when he first came to this place, someone had advised him not to act tough?
He was merely repeating what the others had reminded him of.
"I'm Chen Zhan. May I know your name?"
Chen Zhan took a sip of the peach tea and said softly.
Compared with the top tea in the Zhonghua Building, he preferred the peach tea made with the leaves of the 9000-year-old peach tree. It tasted bitter in the throat but sweet in the heart, which was a little intoxicating.
"I'm Di Zun …"
Di Zun stopped abruptly in the middle of his sentence, looking deeply embarrassed.
"The most famous figures in Wanjie Lou right now are Feng Wuji and Di Zun."
"It's said that Feng Wuji is an ascender from a low-level plane. He ascended to the Distant Ancient Time, which is not the beautiful Immortal World we know, but the cruel and broken Distant Ancient Time."
"However, Feng Wuji is very lucky. After entering the Distant Ancient Time, he obtained a supreme opportunity and even invited the two famous teachers of Wanjie Lou, Master Puti and Immortal Yuding to teach him."
On the stage, Tushan Susu spoke again, talking about the two most famous figures in Wanjie Lou recently.
Hearing Tushan Susu mention his name, Di Zun's mood could be imagined. Even without listening, he knew that the rumors about him were definitely not good.
"According to the speculation of related people, Feng Wuji might be a legendary main character like Xiao Yan."
Tushan Susu blushed. Every powerful figure in Wanjie Lou was defined as a main character. Their lives were full of legends, and people couldn't help but admire them.
"A legendary main character?"
As soon as Tushan Susu finished speaking, everyone on the fourth floor of the Zhonghua Building went into an uproar.
"No way. Aren't the main characters usually very young?"
"Feng Wuji has already ascended. His main character luck should have been used up."
"I wonder who Feng Wuji's enemy is. I'm afraid they're going to be in big trouble."
"I really envy these main characters. They can advance triumphantly all the way, killing all the gods and buddhas they meet."
… …
Everyone's discussion sounded continuously on the fourth floor of the Zhonghua Building.
Di Zun was a bit confused. What was the main character? Why were so many people chasing after him?
"The main character seems to be a staff of Wanjie Lou, the main characters in the novels written by Muyun Chenxi. They're called main characters. They're born with amazing luck, and they always do amazing things."
Chen Zhan smiled and said.
He thought of his son. Maybe he could also be counted as a main character.
It was just that it was hard to say whether this main character could accomplish such a heaven-defying feat.
Their enemies were too terrifying, beyond everyone's imagination.
"The other one is Di Zun. This rank eight cultivator just entered Wanjie Lou. He probably didn't understand the rules of Wanjie Lou, so he was tricked by a man called Shen Gongbao and violated the rules of Wanjie Lou."
"As a punishment, Di Zun paid the price of ten Emperor Weapons and ten Emperor Scriptures to successfully escape."
When Tushan Susu introduced Di Zun, her tone was very tactful. She didn't belittle Di Zun at all.
A rank eight cultivator had lost all his wealth, but he was still a rank eight cultivator and the top customer of Wanjie Lou. He couldn't be belittled.
Di Zun's face darkened when he heard Tushan Susu's introduction, but he felt a little better. Fortunately, she didn't belittle him as an idiot.
"Ten Emperor Weapons and ten Emperor Scriptures. This Di Zun is really rich."
"So what if he's rich? He'll still be tricked."
"Di Zun has set a good example for us. Don't believe the words of strangers. I wonder how Di Zun feels now."
Di Zun, "…"
"Do you know me?"
Di Zun saw that everyone around him was talking about him, but Chen Zhan, who was sitting in front of him, still had a calm expression. He looked surprised.
Chen Zhan nodded and said, "I passed by."
"My friend, you probably lack enough value now. I have a big business. Would you like to join me?"
Chen Zhan put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Di Zun.
Di Zun, "…"
How could he have a chance to join such a good business?
