Chapter 568
Long Chen looked at that person . He had only reached the late Meridian Opening realm . His aura was condensed, but he was no Celestial .
Furthermore, he might have shouted for a deathmatch, but there was not the slightest killing intent coming from him . He was clearly just trying to intimidate him . Most likely, he was someone who had gotten used to using his status to suppress others .
“Do you recognize this child?” Long Chen asked Mo Nian .
“No . I’d guess that he comes from another prefecture and was drawn here because of its fame . How could I possibly know such a character?” Mo Nian shook his head .
“Oh . ”
Long Chen nodded and then continued eating .
“You… you coward! I want a deathmatch with you! Do you dare?!” raged that person upon seeing Long Chen give him the cold shoulder .
“Forget about it . I’m afraid of you, okay?” Long Chen answered vaguely, too lazy to compete with such a person .
With a single glance, it was obvious that this person was a pampered child in his family . He was a greenhouse flower who had never had to suffer . For Long Chen to compete against him was bullying a child .
“Hmph, count yourself smart . ” Seeing Long Chen ‘retreat’, that person snorted and sat back down, beginning to once more calmly sip his wine .
However, this flashy display of his didn’t draw any beauties to his side . He could only continue calmly sitting there .
After that small disturbance, Mo Nian hastily apologized to the three women . But the three of them were very amiable and were unconcerned .
Two of them began to quietly converse with Mo Nian and Mu Xue . Long Chen was surprised to realize that their conversation was about martial arts .
They discussed things relating to Battle Skills, martial arts, and related topics . Only then did Long Chen realize that he really had misjudged this place .
One woman was talking with Mo Nian, while the other woman was talking with Mu Xue . Only Yu Tong hadn’t said a single word, just watching Long Chen devouring his food .
“How about you eat as well?” said Long Chen awkwardly .
“It’s fine, you can eat first . Once you’re full, I have some questions and I’d like to ask for your guidance . ” Yu Tong smiled slightly .
“Then you’ll have to wait for a while . I’m very hungry . ” Long Chen truly was hungry . But at the same time, he also wanted to hear what Mo Nian and Mu Xue were saying .
As for the mercenaries, they could only watch . Even though they could eat, they didn’t dare to . It was like eating in front of these women was a blasphemy .
Listening to Mo Nian’s discussion, Long Chen was startled that although these women’s cultivation bases weren’t apparent, their comprehension of the Martial Dao was frighteningly high .
That woman asked Mo Nian several questions, and Mo Nian also asked her several questions pertaining to cultivation and how to handle bottlenecks . That woman demonstrated an extremely high level of understanding, and some of her methods were so incredible that it would make a person slap the table and shout with praise .
Long Chen finally understood why those men whom these women sat next to would seem like they were sitting on pins and needles .
These women asked very profound questions . If you replied wrongly, they would leave you .
Their conversation was very fair . They would ask one question, and then they would answer one question .
However, Mu Xue only exchanged three questions with her woman when the woman stopped asking any questions . Mu Xue was slightly ashamed . She had been unable to reply to that woman’s question . It was evident that their realms were not on the same level .
But Mo Nian did have some skills . He conversed for a long time with his woman . It seemed he gained great benefits from this trip .
However, the two of them only talked for two incense sticks’ worth of time before that woman paused and looked at Long Chen .
With everyone looking at him, Long Chen didn’t have the nerve to keep eating . Rubbing his mouth, he expressed that he had finished eating .
But before Yu Tong could ask him a question, he bashfully asked, “Miss Yu Tong, is it alright if I ask you a question first?”
“Of course . ” Yu Tong smiled .
“Do you like me?” asked Long Chen ‘uneasily’ .
Everyone was struck dumb . Mo Nian glared at Long Chen . Wasn’t this a bit too vicious? How could he be so direct?
Yu Tong was also startled . She shook her head . “No . ”
“Ah, then I can teach you . In truth liking a person is very simple…” Long Chen’s eyes lit up .
“Pfft, Long Chen, how can you be so shameless!” Even Mo Nian was unable to bear it, and he almost coughed up blood .
“Isn’t this just a joke? Don’t take it so seriously . The main thing was that the atmosphere was just too tense . ” Long Chen laughed .
Yu Tong was somewhat speechless, shaking her head . “Mister Long Chen really is different from others . However, there’s really no need for everyone to be like that . We’re all cultivators, and on the cultivation path, we are all a bunch of children . There are no such things as high-class and low-class!”
Her words were received very gratefully by the mercenaries, as that was a recognition and comfort to them . In her eyes, everyone was the same .
What did it mean to be high-class? It meant possessing a noble character and having high personal accomplishments . Being high-class didn’t mean discriminating and trampling over others in order to find a meaning for your own existence .
As for those people outside, they fundamentally didn’t know what it meant to be high-class . It was just like Long Chen said: they were just a bunch of acting playboys .
“Miss Yu Tong, let me offer you a cup . Your magnanimity is truly admirable . ” This was Long Chen’s first time having a favorable opinion of these women . He sensed that Yu Tong’s words weren’t the slightest bit artificial, so she truly viewed everyone equally .
“Long Chen, they…” Mo Nian was about to say that these women didn’t drink wine .
“In respect to mister Long Chen’s admiration, Yu Tong can only accept . ” Yu Tong smiled and shockingly raised her cup, touching it to Long Chen’s .
This action made Mo Nian dumbfounded . And it wasn’t just Mo Nian . Everyone was flabbergasted .
The Immortal Intoxication Building’s ladies never drank wine . But Yu Tong had made an exception for Long Chen . Furthermore, Yu Tong was not an ordinary lady .
With her looks, other than the queen flower, no one could suppress her . She rarely appeared within the Immortal Intoxication Building .
But this time, not only had she revealed herself, but she had drunk a cup of wine with someone else . That made everyone feel intensely envious of Long Chen .
“I’m glad mister Long Chen thought highly enough of Yu Tong to drink a cup . I trust that when you converse with me, you definitely won’t hold anything back,” said Yu Tong .
Ah, I got duped . With a single cup of alcohol, Yu Tong made it so that Long Chen would have to respond sincerely, or he would become an untrustworthy, petty person .
