Chapter 1095: Chapter 820 Eat a King’s Meal_1
This middle-aged man of Sixth Rank Black Iron should be the owner of this restaurant, he stared at Su Yu, noting the Category 5 Lifeform on his shoulder and was slightly startled. However, he soon realized that Su Yu seemed very ordinary, his presence like that of a common man, and immediately let down his guard. With a heavy snort, he said, "Young man, you are being quite dishonest. Didn’t you ask around to see what kind of place this is? How dare you come here and try to dine and dash?"
Su Yu smiled and said, "Boss, I really didn’t mean to. I just forgot. Besides, I hardly touched the dishes you served."
"Hmph, not touching them doesn’t mean you don’t have to pay. If you don’t have money..." Just then, the owner noticed the ring on Su Yu’s finger, his mind stirred. A secret ring was quite precious. He immediately pointed at the storage ring on Su Yu’s hand and said, "If you don’t have money, leave this thing behind. I won’t make it hard for you, otherwise..." He sneered coldly, his threat was very clear.
It never occurred to Su Yu that this guy would take an interest in his storage ring. He found it amusing and was about to leave directly, when he suddenly thought of something interesting. He took up the thread of conversation and said, "I happen to know Zhang Qianxue. How about this, just put the debt on her account. Is that fine?" In his mind, that young lady seemed to have a big reputation, and he was somewhat curious about her. At this moment, Su Yu decided to drop Zhang Qianxue’s name to see what effect it would have.
"Zhang Qianxue?" The owner’s face changed slightly as he quickly asked, "What is your relationship with Miss Zhang?"
Seeing his change in demeanor, Su Yu thought the young lady did have quite the reputation. He smiled and said, "A passing acquaintance, we do know each other, a friend, you could say."
Just as he had spoken, the owner burst into wild laughter: "Kid, you didn’t bother to find out where you are. This restaurant is invested in by our young lady. You think you can bluff your way past me? As if you’re worthy to utter our young lady’s name! Someone, drag him out and break his legs first, then we’ll talk. An ignorant child who doesn’t know the heights of the heavens nor the depths of the earth, where did you hear our young lady’s name from? You dare to come here and impersonate someone!"
The owner was angry, and Su Yu was momentarily stunned, not foreseeing that the restaurant would be Zhang Qianxue’s establishment. It seemed they were really fated to cross paths.
"It seems Zhang Qianxue really has quite the reputation. Just mentioning her name, it seems, doesn’t do any good..."
Su Yu smiled as he saw several waiters rush over, grabbing his arms to drag him outside.
Just then, someone outside shouted, "What’s going on?"
At the sound, the waiters started and turned their heads. Su Yu also looked, only to see a large crowd pouring in, including several people he recognized.
Indeed, coincidentally, these people he recognized were from the seven-man squad that had crossed paths with him in the Water Element Space, following Zhang Qianxue. However, Zhang Qianxue was not seen in the group now.
"Honorable sirs," the restaurant owner evidently recognized these people as well, and hurriedly greeted them with respect.
"What is this chaos? Alright, make these people leave. Clean up the tables. The Moni Sect and the people from Tiger Might City have directly specified to have their meeting here."
A very stout man, who was one of the nine Ninth level Black Iron Warriors accompanying Zhang Qianxue that day, ordered the owner in a stern voice.
"Yes, yes." The owner, having received the order, didn’t even need to convey it, as those originally dining there started to pack up and leave. The previously crowded restaurant quickly became quiet.
"Quickly, set the tables and chairs in order." The owner was directing the waitstaff to tidy up the tables, but he had left Su Yu to the side.
The sturdy Ninth level expert glanced at Su Yu and nodded slightly. He clearly had other important matters to attend to and didn’t bother with the insignificant Su Yu. Su Yu quietly slipped away, and at that moment, no one stopped him.
After leaving the restaurant, Ada softly said, "That restaurant owner is hiding something."
"Oh?" Su Yu cocked his head slightly, and Ada continued, "From the time he came out, he seemed very restless and tense, and then when those people came in and he heard the names of Moni Sect and Tiger Might City, he became even more tense."
Su Yu smiled and said, "I felt it too, his heart was twitching with nervousness, very suspicious indeed. It seems like schemes and plots exist everywhere."
"Are you interested?" Ada smiled.
"Let’s have a look." Su Yu found a casual place to sit down and watched the restaurant from a distance. It wasn’t long before a large crowd came pouring out.
Among those people, Su Yu recognized Zhang Qianxue. He didn’t know the rest, but to his surprise, there were quite a few Ninth level Black Iron Warriors among the group.
Even without seeing their clothing colors, one should be able to distinguish that they belonged to three different factions.
One faction was associated with Zhang Qianxue, one should belong to something called "Moni Sect," and the other was "Tiger Might City."
It seemed that the three factions had some important matter to discuss and had agreed to meet at this restaurant in "Dragon Sky City."
The restaurant was under Zhang Qianxue’s jurisdiction, and naturally, she had agreed to the proposal. However, just to be safe, she had sent people to check it out beforehand and hadn’t found anything unusual about the restaurant, which put her mind at ease.
As these people entered the restaurant and settled down in their chairs, the waiters served fragrant tea, and they promptly got straight to the point of their discussion.
The people from the Moni Sect spoke in a "wa wa wa" manner, which Su Yu could not understand at all; he had no idea what country they were from, and he had to rely on Ada to translate.
After listening briefly, Su Yu understood that it seemed the three factions were fighting over an "energy mine." Now the "energy mine" was occupied by the forces represented by Zhang Qianxue, but the nearby Moni Sect and Tiger Might City obviously wanted a share. The three parties had even fought several fierce battles, sustaining injuries on both sides, prompting them to convene here to resolve the issue through negotiations.
Moni Sect and Tiger Might City had a simple idea: to split the mine into three equal parts. However, Zhang Qianxue was only willing to give up a tiny portion because the "energy mine" was originally discovered and developed by their side. It had nothing to do with the Moni Sect or Tiger Might City, but had it not been for the powerful influence of the two factions joining forces, making it difficult for Zhang Qianxue to handle alone, she would not have considered giving up even that small portion.
In this world, nations and powers sprung up everywhere. Although the original Ten Great Giant Cities had been destroyed, constant warfare continued among these emerging forces. It could be said that wherever there were people, there would always be strife.
The negotiation quickly reached a deadlock. Su Yu listened and felt that the Moni Sect and Tiger Might City were very aggressive in speech and domineering in manner. Combined with the strangeness of the restaurant’s owner, he sensed there might be a conspiracy afoot.
As the leaders of the three factions reached an impasse, the leader of Tiger Might City, a robust man wearing a patterned tiger skin, suddenly slammed his hand on the table and shouted angrily, "Zhang Qianxue, don’t push your luck. Moni Sect and I combined can easily destroy your ’Dragon Sky City.’ Do you dare to be so insolent with us?"
Zhang Qianxue stood her ground and smiled faintly, "Since you’ve shown your true colors, do you really think you can walk out of here today?"
The burly man laughed wildly, "Bitch, I knew you were up to no good, but I was prepared too—"
Suddenly, he let out a long howl.
As the howl echoed, it was met with terrifying shouts of killing coming from afar.
Zhang Qianxue’s face slightly changed, and at that moment, Su Yu outside sensed that several large armies were ambushed around "Dragon Sky City." They immediately rushed forward at the sound of the howl, charging towards "Dragon Sky City."
Zhang Qianxue’s pretty face darkened as she realized what was happening and scoffed, "So you two have been in cahoots all along, plotting to destroy my ’Dragon Sky City.’ Fine, today we’ll see who the deer falls to—" She stood up abruptly, followed by her cohort of ninth level and eighth stage experts, all rising to their feet. In terms of strength, "Dragon Sky City" was certainly no pushover. Even if the Moni Sect and Tiger Might City combined could annihilate them, it would come at a very heavy price.
But just as Zhang Qianxue and her people angrily stood up, they suddenly felt weak in their hands and feet and slowly slumped back down.
"What... what’s going on?" Zhang Qianxue was taken aback.
The robust man from Tiger Might City was already laughing heartily, patting the restaurant owner on the shoulder and saying, "This is your most loyal servant, alas, his wife and children are now in my hands. He’s quick to understand his situation, having already switched sides to us. It was just a matter of adding a bit of Moni Sect’s specially made ’Different Source Powder’ to the tea for your group."
With this explanation, Zhang Qianxue and the others immediately understood what had happened. Per the agreement, each person was served fragrant tea, and in the tea for Zhang Qianxue and her group, there had obviously been this strange drug that temporarily prevented the gathering of special power. Engrossed in conversation, they had naturally become thirsty and drank the tea.
The people from Tiger Might City and the Moni Sect had been waiting to see Zhang Qianxue and her group drink the tea before becoming gradually more assertive, eventually leading to an eruption in tension.
"I should have thought of it earlier. How could you willingly enter Dragon Sky City and choose this location?" Zhang Qianxue hardly had the strength to move, feeling despair in her heart. Now reflecting on the situation, it was such a crude trick. Yet, it was precisely such a simple and crude trick that had ensnared them.
Because the location was set in "Dragon Sky City" and in a restaurant of her own, Zhang Qianxue thought it would be absolutely safe, which made her lower her guard. She never would have imagined that the owner, whom she had always trusted, would betray her like this.
"Zhang Qianxue, do you understand now? Today is the day you and Dragon Sky City will be erased. The armies of the Moni Sect and I have already arrived. None of you will escape. Without your leadership, Dragon Sky City won’t withstand a single blow." (To be continued. For more, please visit www.qidian.com. More Chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
