Auxiliary Star
Ye Zichen's casual tone frightened Bai Xiaosheng so much that his heart trembled. However, he'd been a swindler for so long. If he didn't have this much subtlety, how was he supposed to make a living?
"You know the Literati Star? That's the funniest joke I've ever heard."
Bai Xiaosheng laughed maniacally. He wanted to use his laughter to cover up his unease and test the truth of Ye Zichen's words.
However, what shocked him the most was that Ye Zichen's smile remained indifferent the entire time.
"No way, do you really know him?"
Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but mutter to himself. Then he gnashed his teeth, his beady eyes darting back and forth.
"Was what you said just now true?"
"What? You're not going to say you're the Literati Star anymore?"
Ye Zichen laughed genially. His calm demeanor made Bai Xiaosheng feel even more unsure.
What kind of luck was this? He'd actually run into someone who knew the Literati Star. Didn't that mean this guy was actually one of the nine heavenly stars?
"Ha, I'm feeling a bit unwell. I'll help you solve your problem next time."
With that, Bai Xiaosheng leapt out of the private room like a monkey. When the surrounding guests saw this, they all looked at him with disgust. Bai Xiaosheng was infamous in Raging Flame City. It seemed he'd been caught scamming people again and was now trying to escape.
Although they were disgusted, no one tried to stop him. It wasn't that they didn't want to get involved in other people's business. It was just that although Bai Xiaosheng wasn't strong, his fleeing skills had reached the point of perfection.
He'd once tricked a human immortal expert, who'd tried to catch him but failed. Most of them had only just entered immortality. Catching Bai Xiaosheng was even more impossible.
All of a sudden, they looked at Ye Zichen, their gazes filled with pity.
"Did I say you could run?"
At that moment, Ye Zichen, who was sitting on a chair, spoke up, then hooked his finger at Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng had already run to the inn's entrance, but he couldn't stop himself from falling back.
"An expert."
The people at the other tables couldn't help but murmur. They couldn't tell how strong this expert was. To be able to capture Bai Xiaosheng, who even a Human Immortal couldn't deal with, effortlessly, he must be at least a Heaven Immortal expert.
This sort of expert was rare in Raging Flame City. When they realized that Ye Zichen might be a sky immortal, some were already itching to try and see if they could become his followers.
Bang.
He returned to his seat the same way he ran out.
When he saw that they'd returned to Ye Zichen's private seat, Bai Xiaosheng's expression instantly darkened.
"Lord, I was wrong."
Ye Zichen merely smiled at him and pursed his lips.
"Tell me, what star are you?"
Although the story of the Emperor Star and the Auxiliary Star had been passed down in the God Clan, very few people knew about it after so many years.
Bai Xiaosheng could name the Emperor Star and the Auxiliary Stars, and he could even mention one of the Four Great Auxiliary Stars, the Literati Star.
Either he had really done his homework, or he really was one of the Auxiliary Stars.
If it was the former, then so be it. But if it was the latter, then Ye Zichen couldn't let him escape no matter what.
Bai Xiaosheng's expression was as bitter as a melon. He looked helplessly at Ye Zichen, who was smiling calmly at him.
"Grandpa, you are also one of the Nine Heavenly Stars, right? I am indeed the Emperor Star's Auxiliary Star. However, I am not one of the Four Great Auxiliary Stars. Instead, I am the Auxiliary Star that assists the Left Auxiliary Star. A few years ago, a star suddenly fell into my body and told me that it was a lucky star. At first, I was confused, so I went to look up the history of the Emperor Star's Auxiliary Stars. The Assistant Star, who assisted the Assistant Star of the Left, was the most important. Lord, you understand, it means that one's life will be filled with riches and honor. I thought it was a joyful fart, but I didn't expect to become poorer and poorer. In the end, I couldn't even afford to eat, so I had to resort to scamming people to make a living. "
In order to gain Ye Zichen's trust, he even revealed his left arm. There really was a star brand on his left forearm.
"Not bad."
When Ye Zichen saw the stars on her arm, he smiled in satisfaction.
He hadn't expected this kid to be Yin Shang's Auxiliary Star. He just didn't know which divine mountain Yin Shang resided on.
"Grandpa, your food is here."
The waiter brought the dishes over. The entire table was filled with the inn's signature dishes. As he left, he shot Bai Xiaosheng a warning glare. When he saw that, Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but smile wryly. Right now, it wasn't a matter of whether or not he was a scammer. It was a matter of whether or not he could keep his life.
He carefully studied Ye Zichen's expression, then heard …..
"Eat!"
"Huh?" Bai Xiaosheng was clearly taken aback.
"I ordered this for you. Once you've eaten, you can follow me from now on. Didn't you say you were the Assistant Star's Lord? Not bad. Your life of riches and honor has arrived. "
"Re ….. Really?"
"Of course. Hurry up and eat. The food's going to get cold."
In truth, the Assistant Star's fate was to wholeheartedly assist the Assistant Star of the Left. When he'd descended, he'd received the same instruction.
However, he'd bitterly waited several years for the Assistant Star of the Left. In fact, he'd almost starved to death!
He snorted coldly in his heart. Why wait for the Assistant Star of the Left? I'd rather be his lackey than be his lackey!
As he considered this, Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but curse inwardly.
"Who cares if he's the Assistant Star or the Assistant Star of the Left? I'm done!"
In the Axe Gang's front hall, two enormous axes were carved into the wall, crisscrossed.
There was a chair below, and the back of the chair was also engraved with the same axe as the one on the wall, and there was a burly man sitting on the chair.
"I called you all here because I have something to discuss with you."
The man on the chair was the Axe Gang's Raging Flame City branch leader, Huang Aogu. Zhao Ye and the other captains of the Axe Gang sat in the hall.
"Just a few days ago, our branch's Zhao Ye, Captain Zhao, and Scar were robbed. Do you know about this?"
When Zhao Ye heard this, his expression was incomparably unsightly. He'd spent his entire life robbing people, only to have them stolen from him. To him, this was an unforgettable humiliation.
The other captains nodded. Zhao Ye's matter had caused quite a ruckus. They all knew about it.
