The people from the Celestial Retaining Sect didn't know him. Who the hell knew who this "Daoye" was? But when they saw Duan Hu and the others behind him, they immediately understood. It was Niu Youdao!
Cui Yuan, who came out with the crowd, was even more nervous. He knew Duan Hu and the others from Star picking City. If he used to feel superior in front of Duan Hu and the others, he no longer felt so confident and guilty now. Killing one Niu Youdao wasn't enough, there were still a few more!
"What's going on?"
Wu Shaohuan, who heard the commotion, came out from behind and shouted. He looked at the smashed counter and the unconscious disciple who was coughing up blood. Anger appeared on his face.
Xiao Tie hurried over and whispered a few words to Wu Shaohuan and Li Guang, the two elders.
Wu Shaohuan's face darkened, and the tense atmosphere in the shop was suddenly suppressed.
"We don't know any Daoye here," Wu Shaohuan said as he walked out from the crowd.
Yuan Gang said stiffly, "Niu Youdao!"
Wu Shaohuan: "Who are you?" He suspected that the other party was from the Ice and Snow Pavilion. Otherwise, how could he be so arrogant?
Yuan Gang: "Those who are in charge, come out and answer. Those who are not related, step aside."
Wu Shaohuan looked left and right. "I can call the shots here."
Yuan Gang: "Daoye invites you to come with us to the Rainbow Inn."
Wu Shaohuan was also in a dilemma. He didn't know the relationship between Niu Youdao and the Ice and Snow Pavilion, so he didn't dare to act rashly. But if he was too soft, with so many disciples watching, he said with a straight face, "How are you going to settle the score for injuring my disciples?"
Yuan Gang: "Come with us first. You can settle the score however you want later. I'll accept it no matter what."
This was considered an explanation for Wu Shaohuan, at least giving him a way out in front of the other disciples.
Yuan Gang knew how to be firm and how to be soft. He would not mess up what Niu Youdao had instructed him to do. This was also the reason why Niu Youdao had asked Yuan Gang to personally handle the matter. Otherwise, Yuan Gang would not have needed to run errands to invite people. It was not like there was no one down there. Black Peony and the others could just make the trip.
However, Black Peony and the others had never appeared in public before, so they lacked experience. They had once lived under the tyrannical might of these large sects for a long time, so it was easy for them to become fearful and lose their confidence. It was easy for others to look down on them. Sometimes, the difference of a fine line could make a world of difference!
Yuan Gang, on the other hand, was different.
After a while, a group of people came out. Wu Sanliang brought Wu Shaohuan to the Rainbow Inn, while Yuan Gang brought the others to the next inn.
"Sir …"
In the shop of the Fuyun Clan, a shop assistant came forward to welcome the customer. Yuan Gang kicked violently again.
Bang! The smiling shop assistant was caught off guard and was sent flying. He spat out blood and fell to the ground. The other people in the shop came out in shock.
Duan Hu and Wei Duo were sweating a little. This person was too fierce. He was going to fight one by one!
Little did they know that this had something to do with Yuan Gang knowing that the people of these three sects had chased after Niu Youdao.
"Who is it?"
"Daoye invites you in!"
After leaving the shop of the Fuyun Clan, Yuan Gang continued to the next shop. Duan Hu left with the shopkeeper, Cao Heng.
In the Rainbow Inn, Lei Zongkang led the way. The shopkeeper of the Great Zen Mountain Shop, Mei Shikai, was finally lucky enough to come to the top floor of the inn. He didn't usually come here. He also knew that not everyone could come here. This was the place where the Ice and Snow Pavilion received their distinguished guests. This was the first time he came here.
The door was not closed. Black Peony paced at the door. Inside the room, Niu Youdao sat behind the desk with his eyes closed. No one knew what he was thinking.
Lei Zongkang and Black Peony met and introduced Mei Shikai.
"Please wait a moment!" Black Peony nodded at Mei Shikai with a smile and entered beside Niu Youdao. She bent down and whispered in Niu Youdao's ear, "Daoye, Mei Shikai, Shopkeeper Mei of the Great Zen Mountain Shop is here."
Niu Youdao grunted, and Black Peony waved at the door. Lei Zongkang immediately extended a hand to invite Mei Shikai in.
The two entered. Lei Zongkang stood at the side. Mei Shikai cupped his hands at Niu Youdao, who was behind the desk. "Brother Niu, what business do you have with me?"
Niu Youdao slowly opened his eyes. "I heard that the Great Zen Mountain wants to kill me?"
Mei Shikai was stunned. He was already mentally prepared for this, but he was still surprised by the other party's straightforwardness. He quickly waved his hands and said, "How is that possible? The Great Zen Mountain has no enmity with Brother Niu. Where does Brother Niu's words come from?"
Niu Youdao, "Can Shopkeeper Mei make a decision on the Great Zen Mountain's matters?"
Mei Shikai chuckled. "I only manage the shop here. How can I make a decision on the matters of the sect?" He would definitely refuse this kind of question.
Niu Youdao, "It seems that there are many things that Shopkeeper Mei does not know. How about this, I will trouble Shopkeeper Mei to send a message back and invite the sect leader of the Great Zen Mountain to come to the Ice Pavilion."
Mei Shikai's smile froze. "I can send the message back. As for whether the sect leader will come, I cannot guarantee."
Niu You replied, "It doesn't matter. Manager Mei can stay at the inn for the time being. I'll let you go when the Sect Master arrives."
Mei Shikai's face darkened. "What do you mean?"
Niu Youdao, "Nothing. I just want to make things clear with the sect. You cannot make a decision on this matter, so don't worry."
Mei Shikai, "What if I don't stay?"
Niu Youdao, "I hope you can kill your way out of the Rainbow Inn!"
Mei Shikai's mouth twitched. The two stared at each other.
"It's none of your business. Don't look for trouble for yourself. Let the person who can make the decision handle it." Niu Youdao picked up the teacup and looked at Lei Zongkang. "Invite Shopkeeper Mei to your room to rest. Ask someone from their shop to send a message for Shopkeeper Mei."
"Yes!" Lei Zongkang answered and walked to Mei Shikai, inviting him to follow him.
Black Peony broke out in a sweat. He had already detained the shopkeepers of the Heavenly Jade Clan and the Ten Thousand Grotto-Heaven Palace. Now, he detained the shopkeeper of the Great Zen Mountain. What was he trying to do?
Soon, Wu Sanliang arrived with Wu Shaohuan. The situation was the same. No matter how arrogant he was, he could not be arrogant against the background of the Rainbow Inn.
After that, Shopkeeper Cao Heng of the Floating Cloud Sect and Shopkeeper Li Huoyun of the Exquisite Beauty Sect arrived one after another. None of them had a good ending. Niu Youdao did not let any of them off and placed them all under house arrest.
In Black Peony's opinion, Niu Youdao was crazy. Even if he was a fox exploiting the tiger's might, this was not the way to play. Did he think the sects were all idiots? Would the sect master of the other sects come to see you just because you asked him to?
"Daoye, you detained the people of the other sects. They will definitely come to the inn to negotiate later."
Niu Youdao leaned back in his chair and looked at the darkening sky outside the window. Black Peony brought him a cup of tea and reminded him. She reminded him that he would be exposed if he continued to exploit the tiger's might. He would not be able to get out of this predicament.
"Yes, I know," Niu Youdao answered and continued to look outside the window. He seemed to be in a daze.
Yuan Gang's figure appeared and blocked his line of sight. He stood in front of the window and looked at the sky. He turned back and said, "The weather here is unpredictable. I'm afraid there will be a huge snowstorm tonight."
Niu Youdao smiled. He had to admit that having the monkey by his side saved him a lot of trouble. The monkey was good at gathering information. He would always pay attention to people and things that were disadvantageous to him. Along the way, there were many things that he did not know about, but once he arrived, he would ask around, such as the situation of the Song family in Yanjing.
Black Peony was speechless. These two didn't seem to be worried at all. It made her seem ignorant.
She walked out the door, feeling a little discouraged. As soon as she walked out, she saw Duan Hu and the others approaching.
"How was it?" Duan Hu asked.
Black Peony said, "What do you mean how was it? Isn't it just like this? What else could it be?"
Wu Sanliang said, "Peony, that Yuan Gang is really fierce. Did you know that when he looked for the sects just now, he practically knocked on their doors one by one?"
"Knocked on their doors?" Black Peony was stunned.
Duan Hu sighed and shook his head. "This old Taoist took advantage of the fact that there was no one in the shop to loot it. This person is even fiercer than this old Taoist. As soon as he entered the shop, he dealt a heavy blow and beat the person until he vomited blood. Without saying a word, he went to the shop and beat anyone he saw in broad daylight. He severely injured the person …"
The three of them discussed what had happened in low voices. Black Peony was a little confused. Why would they be afraid of arresting people and offending them? They'd already made a move!
Looking at the three of them, she also saw some clues. The three of them, who had been dissatisfied with Yuan Gang and secretly gossiping behind his back, now seemed to have changed their attitude towards Yuan Gang …
"Shopkeeper Chu, the Rainbow Inn has to give an explanation for arresting people, right?"
At the side of the inn's lobby, when he heard that Wu Shaohuan had been detained, Staying Immortal Sect's Elder Li Guang immediately went to the inn and found Chu Anlou to negotiate.
Chu Anlou was a little speechless. It wasn't just the Staying Immortal Sect. Heavenly Jade Sect, Ten Thousand Grotto-Heaven Abode, and Great Zen Mountain. What was going on? Xuanyuan Dao was that Niu Youdao who killed the Yan envoy?
He'd heard reports from below that there were people coming and going from the top floor. He didn't expect something like this to happen.
"Shopkeeper Chu, I'm a disciple of the Fuyun Sect."
A Fuyun Sect disciple entered the inn and scanned the lobby. Seeing Chu Anlou at the side of the lobby, he immediately came over and introduced himself.
Again? It wasn't over yet. Chu Anlou immediately raised a hand to stop him. "Everyone, please wait a moment. Allow me to understand the situation first."
With that, he hurriedly left and went upstairs to find Niu Youdao.
Seeing him arrive, Niu Youdao put down his teacup and cupped his hands. "Shopkeeper Chu."
Chu Anlou said in a low voice, "You're that Niu Youdao who killed the Yan envoy?"
"That's right." Niu Youdao admitted it straightforwardly and sighed. "Shopkeeper Chu, please forgive me. For the sake of my safety, I had no choice but to conceal my identity."
Chu Anlou said, "How many sects did you detain at the Rainbow Inn under the banner of the Rainbow Inn?"
Niu Youdao said awkwardly, "Seeing that Shopkeeper Chu was so friendly, I wanted to take the opportunity to solve some problems. That's why I took the initiative to find them. It seems that Shopkeeper Chu is indeed a great deterrent."
You even took the initiative to find them? Chu Anlou raised a hand to stop him. "Fine! If you let him go right now, I'll pretend this never happened. "
Niu Youdao counted on his fingers and said, "It's not that I have a problem with them, it's that they have a problem with me. The Heavenly Jade Clan wants to kill me, the Ten Thousand Grotto-Heaven Palace wants to kill me, the Great Zen Mountain wants to kill me, the Immortal Retaining Sect wants to kill me, the Fuyun Sect wants to kill me, and the Spiritual Beauty Mountain wants to kill me. Some have already mobilized their forces. Shopkeeper Chu, they didn't notice me at first, but your warm treatment suddenly attracted attention and exposed me. What do you want me to do? "
Just how many people have you offended? Chu Anlou cursed under his breath and said in a low voice, "That's your personal matter. The Rainbow Inn doesn't get involved in external matters, and there's no reason for us to detain people at the inn for no reason. If you do this, who will dare to stay at the inn in the future? Release them now before you cause any trouble! You should know the inn's background. You're courting death if you dare to make use of the inn! "
Niu Youdao said, "Since Shopkeeper Chu has said so, I don't dare to say anything else. I can only think of a way to escape. I'll remember your warm treatment, Shopkeeper Chu. I'll take my leave now! "
Chu Anlou frowned. "Where are you going?"
