Chapter 785: Chapter 755: Luo Beibei’s Misunderstanding

Yi Zheng saw this and quickly shouted, "The territory of the Confucian Divine Country isn’t large enough to accommodate too many players.

Today, it’s only because of the favor of some Divine Country members that I’m recruiting you.

However, the spots are limited, and after today, we won’t be recruiting anymore.

Opportunities like this only come once; having too many just makes it meaningless."

As soon as he said this, those who were pondering whether to join immediately raised their hands and shouted, "I’m in, count me in too!"

As more and more people were influenced, eventually everyone present raised their arms, expressing their desire to join the Confucian Divine Country.

Yi Zheng didn’t waste any words and directly summoned Liu Fei to accept these players.

Then he called Luo Beibei, Yichen, Xue Tianyan, Madman, Black Storm, and others to find a secluded hilltop to sit down.

"Thank you all for the support, guys."

Facing these old friends, Yi Zheng dropped the act.

Madman and others chuckled, "Rabbit, I’ve always known you were running a Divine Country, just never understood the purpose. Honestly, besides gathering a bunch of players under you, what’s the benefit for you?"

Yi Zheng sat there contentedly, grinning, "Isn’t it good? Or do you all miss the old ways of getting along?

Of course, if you prefer, I can change."

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly remembered the hard times from the past. They finally got over the shadow of the Rabbit, and now it seemed to be returning. Everyone frantically shook their heads, "I didn’t say anything; don’t misinterpret it. Rabbit, your current state is great, keep it up."

Everyone advised earnestly.

Yi Zheng said, "Alright, I’m a Divine Beast now.

Do you know what a Divine Beast is?

It’s a protector of a region!

I’m not a BOSS anymore. BOSSes hunt players, but now I’m protecting you."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s mood improved significantly.

"Divine Beast is great, Rabbit! I’ve always thought you were best suited to be a Divine Beast," Black Storm shouted.

Yi Zheng said, "Really?"

Xu Tiecheng said, "Of course, if anyone dares say you’re not suited to be a Divine Beast, I’ll fight them! Guys like us, born weak, need a Divine Beast like you for protection."

"Yes, yes, Rabbit, protect us well in the future.

Especially during tribulation," Qu Mayi also shouted.

Yi Zheng nodded, "I didn’t expect everyone to recognize me so much; I’m touched."

Everyone waved their hands repeatedly, "It’s what you deserve!"

Yi Zheng then said, "Alright, in that case, how about the protection fee? Let’s forget about the past decades; given our relationship, those are exempted. But shouldn’t we settle the accounts of these recent seven or eight years?

I’m not asking for much, just a supplementary ten Top Grade Spirit Stones per person, that’s fair, right?"

Everyone was speechless at once, thinking, "Damn, this Rabbit was waiting for this!"

But everyone simply handed over ten Top Grade Spirit Stones each.

Yi Zheng said, "That’s right, Xue Tianyan, you’re not just ten stones.

See, I lent you the pipa to help you through the tribulation, so... you should at least..."

"Take it all!" Xue Tianyan didn’t mince words and directly took off the Sumeru Ring and handed it to Yi Zheng, then sat next to him.

Yi Zheng was dumbfounded, and so were the other players. After exchanging glances...

Madman bitterly smiled, "Xue Tianyan, you’ve set a bad example. If you do this, what about us in the future?

Doesn’t this mean we’ll have to hand over everything?

Saving for a dowry isn’t easy..."

Yi Zheng rolled his eyes, "Alright, I’ve got the stuff, let’s settle past grudges."

Everyone was stunned, finally understanding what this Rabbit was up to. Even close friends should keep accounts clear; he clearly took the money so that no one owed each other favors, and they were once again equal friends.

Everyone bitterly smiled, "Rabbit, what... what’s a little money like this for you."

Meaning, we still owe you favors.

Yi Zheng waved a small hand, "If you really feel you owe me, I won’t stop you. Next time there’s a fight, just catch more reinforcements, my Divine Country needs as many people as possible!"

Although everyone felt that Yi Zheng gaining players through a Divine Country must be profitable, nobody pried further.

After all, who doesn’t have a few secrets?

When a group of old friends gather, naturally it’s time for barbecues, drinks, and bragging.

The girls handled the barbecue, while the men assisted.

"Xun Long, I want to make Coca-Cola chicken wings, we’ve got the Coke, but no chicken wings! Go get some!" Fang Ling called back.

Xun Long glanced at Chicken King and others fetching water in the distance, "I know where to find chickens, but I can’t beat them. How about birds?"

"Birds will do!" Fang Ling replied.

Xun Long immediately grabbed his gear and flew towards a mountain range in the distance. In no time, a group of monstrous birds screamed and soared into the sky, but were soon pierced by a long spear. Before long, Xun Long returned with over a hundred man-sized eagles.

Fang Ling looked at the wings longer than her legs and hopelessly looked at Xun Long, "You expect me to make Coca-Cola wings with these?"

"Uh... how about... stewing potatoes then," Xun Long laughed awkwardly.

Fang Ling gestured angrily, "I don’t want such big ones; I want small ones, small chicken wings!"

Xun Long covered his ears and ran off. Who knows where he went in the end, but he actually managed to get a big bag of chicken wings.

On the other side, Luo Beibei led a group of girls in threading meat skewers. With a sprinkle of cumin, the aroma instantly wafted into the air.

A breeze blew, and Yi Zheng’s nose twitched; this was the taste of his hometown on Earth!

Yi Zheng couldn’t remember the last time he tasted the flavors from Earth.

Although the chefs in this world make incredibly delicious dishes, and the ingredients are top-notch, Yi Zheng missed the taste of the periodic table he grew up with.

After all, this world didn’t have the so-called chemical industry, nor food additives, so many dishes’ textures were different from Earth’s.

Although Luo Beibei and others didn’t add chemical products, the hometown’s cooking techniques made up for a lot of shortcomings.

With the smell in his nostrils and swallowing his saliva, Yi Zheng was still listening to everyone talk, but his eyes were already drifting towards the barbecue stall.

The intensity of Rabbit’s gaze was so scorching that Luo Beibei, manning the grill, blushed from his stare.

Beside her, Li Qingluo whispered, "Beibei, Rabbit keeps looking at you. Do you think he’s fallen for you?"

Liu Fei said, "Don’t kid. I’ve been with the Sect Master for so many years and never seen him take interest in a woman. I agree with Zi Xing; he probably still prefers rabbits. Just hasn’t found the right female rabbit."

Li Qingluo said, "Then why does he keep looking at Beibei? Look at his eyes, so full of raw possessiveness, like he’s ready to devour her. I’ve only ever seen that look on extremely hungry people.

I’m sure, he’s definitely interested in Beibei."
