341: Chapter 341: Teach Them How to Behave?
Huang Xiaolong listened to the discussions at the neighboring table, shook his head with a smile, and didn’t take it to heart.
Huo Ping?
A top-level Martial Soul White Bear, at twenty-two years old already possesses the strength of the Innate Second Stage Late Stage.
Not a bad talent either.
Huang Xiaolong thought inwardly.
However, Huang Xiaolong didn’t take the conversations at the nearby table to heart, but Huang Xiaohai, hearing someone actually comparing some kid named Huo Ping to his big brother and saying that the former’s talent was even better, felt extremely annoyed.
Huang Xiaohai’s eyes flashed with anger, and just as he was about to stand up, Huang Xiaolong raised his hand, caught hold of his younger brother’s arm, and shook his head, “It’s a trivial matter, let it go.”
“Big brother!” Huang Xiaohai was taken aback, saw Huang Xiaolong’s gaze, and then sat back down.
At that moment, Huang Xiaolong opened a jar of wine and poured two bowls for them.
“Come!”
The two brothers clinked their bowls together.
As the wine went down their throats, its fragrance filled their mouths.
Huang Xiaolong nodded, “Not bad.”
This local wine, although not as good as Broken Blade Academy’s Aftertaste Wine, is nonetheless comparable to the Snow Moon Wine of Lukai Kingdom.
Meanwhile, the discussions at the neighboring table continued.
“What do you think the strength of Young Master Divine Dragon is now?”
“A few years ago, when he participated in the battle of the Imperial City, he had just broken through to Innate, and now, I think at most he’s at the Innate Fourth Stage.”
“Innate Fourth Stage?
I don’t think that’s possible, even with strong talent, it’s not likely one rank per year.
I think he’s at most Innate Third Stage, maybe he hasn’t even reached the Innate Third Stage Late Stage yet.”
Innate Third Stage?
Hearing the discussions, Huang Xiaolong was surprised at first, then couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Huang Xiaohai, on the other hand, frowned, finding these people’s speculations increasingly ridiculous.
Although Huang Xiaolong had shown his strength in front of everyone in the past, the Huang Family and Emperor Duanren had suppressed the news afterward, so most people were not aware of Huang Xiaolong’s true strength.
At this moment, the discussions came over again.
“I heard that yesterday Huo Ping said he wants to visit South Mountain Mansion to seek advice from Young Master Divine Dragon.”
To seek advice naturally means to have a comparison.
“If that’s true, I wonder what the outcome will be.”
Hearing that Huo Ping was so arrogant as to come to the South Mountain Mansion to challenge his big brother, Huang Xiaohai was infuriated.
“A bunch of idiots!” he couldn’t help but exclaim angrily.
The people at the neighboring table, hearing the outburst, all turned to look.
“Kid, what did you just say?!” A middle-aged man with a face full of black beard stood up and shouted, his expression menacing.
“I said, you’re a bunch of idiots, didn’t you hear?” Huang Xiaohai retorted coldly.
The middle-aged man with the black beard became furious, brandishing the large saber in his hand, “Kid, you’re asking for death!” With that, he made to attack Huang Xiaohai.
However, at this moment, there was suddenly a commotion.
“It’s Huo Ping!”
“It’s the Huo Ping who seized first place in the battle for Imperial City this time!”
The middle-aged man with a full black beard paused abruptly and, together with the crowd, turned to look.
They saw a young man, about twenty-one or twenty-two, wearing a blue robe and a sword at his waist, with strikingly handsome features, approaching from down the street.
A group of guards followed him.
This young man exuded an air of lone arrogance.
Any young man who clinched first place in the battle for Imperial City would inevitably be proud, especially one with a talent for a top-level Martial Soul of the thirteenth rank.
Wherever Huo Ping walked, the street crowded with family disciples and young women who occasionally erupted in shouts and cries of adoration.
Upon reaching the Junyue Restaurant, Huo Ping stopped.
He walked into the restaurant with his group of followers amid the fawning and reverent treatment from the owner.
Huang Xiaolong withdrew his gaze from the window and shook his head.
His first impression of Huo Ping was not good.
At that moment, Huo Ping and his followers moved up to the second floor.
When the diners on the second floor saw Huo Ping coming up, they all stood up, smiling obsequiously and moved aside.
Huo Ping nodded with satisfaction at the respectful behavior of the crowd but frowned upon seeing Huang Xiaolong and Huang Xiaohai still sitting there drinking on their own.
Then, Huo Ping said to the restaurant owner, “Owner, I would like to book the entire second floor to celebrate with my followers.” After saying that, he tossed a bag of Gold Coins to the restaurant owner.
“For those who have already ordered food and drinks, consider it my treat.”
Upon receiving the Gold Coins, the owner estimated there were five to six hundred of them, and his face flashed a brilliant smile.
“It’s Junyue Restaurant’s honor to have Young Master Huo Ping celebrate here.
However…” He said this with a look of difficulty, glancing at the other diners on the second floor.
As the restaurant owner, he was reluctant to drive away paying customers.
Seeing this, Huo Ping scanned the crowd, “You all don’t have a problem with that, right?”
The second-floor diners all smiled obligingly and nodded their agreement.
Seeing this, the restaurant owner heaved a sigh of relief.
However, noticing Huang Xiaolong and his brother were still seated, he hesitated briefly before approaching Huang Xiaolong and Huang Xiaohai with a polite manner, “Gentlemen, since Young Master Huo Ping wants to book the second floor, perhaps I could arrange a seat for you on the first floor?”
The restaurant owner remained fairly polite in his approach.
At this, Huang Xiaohai took out a money pouch and poured out Gold Coins that amounted to likely one or two thousand.
He then said, “In that case, my brother and I will book the entire second floor.
For those who have already ordered, consider it our treat.” Turning to Huo Ping with a cold smirk, he added, “As for those who haven’t ordered yet, sorry, but they can scram.”
Scram!
Everyone immediately knew who that was directed at.
Because it was Huo Ping and his entourage who hadn’t ordered yet.
The restaurant owner’s expression turned blank as he gazed at the Gold Coins scattered on the floor.
The diners who were going to leave the second floor became noisy.
“This kid, actually daring to confront Young Master Huo Ping?!
Who does he think he is!”
“Who does he think he is?
I reckon they won’t even know how they’re going to die later!” At this, the middle-aged man with a full black beard, who had been sitting next to Huang Xiaolong’s table earlier and discussing, sneered.
The crowd became more noisy, but Huo Ping’s face turned extremely unsightly.
He hadn’t expected to encounter such a situation while coming out to celebrate with his guards.
“Young Master, these two are being unreasonable.
How about I go and teach them a lesson in manners?” At this point, one of the guards stepped forward behind Huo Ping and said.
Huo Ping raised his hand to stop the guard beside him and looked coldly at Huang Xiaolong and Huang Xiaohai, “Which family’s disciples are you two from?
Have you considered the consequences of your actions?”
Huang Xiaohai shrugged, “Consequences?
Tell us then, what consequences will there be for what we’ve done?”
Huang Xiaolong sat there without speaking, thinking that his younger brother Huang Xiaohai’s temperament was rather similar to his own.
At Huang Xiaohai’s reply, Huo Ping’s face became dark as still water.
At this time, the restaurant owner stepped forward and tried to persuade Huang Xiaolong and Huang Xiaohai, saying, “Gentlemen, perhaps it would be best if you went down to the first floor.
Really, the first and second floors are the same.” In his view, it was for Huang Xiaolong and Huang Xiaohai’s own good, not worth offending Huo Ping, who had a strong identity and background, over a seating dispute.
