Chapter 130 It’s Because I’m More Handsome Than You
In the evening, at the Green Bamboo Garden outside the city.
This was a famous restaurant in the capital. It was situated in a bamboo forest, close to the lake. The environment was elegant, and many high-ranking officials and nobles would come here to eat.
In comparison, the price was not low.
Any of the dishes were above four digits.
When everyone saw the menu, other than the Gu siblings, they were all shocked by the exorbitant price.
“Braised green deer trotters… 4,300 primeval stones…”
Junior Ruan covered her mouth, “Wow, this is too expensive.”
Her full name was Ruan Qinghe, and her family also ranbusiness, but their annual income was only around 100,000 primeval stones. Every month, they would send her a few hundred as cultivation resources.
Adding the inner sect disciples’ monthly payment, a total of a thousand primeval stones was enough to sustain her Gu worms.
But this dish in front of her actually cost nearly four months of her primeval stones?
Ruan Qinghe could not help but look at Fang Yuan, reminding him, “Senior, the sect only gave us three thousand primeval stones as payment…” “No problem, I will pay for it myself. Demon beast meat is very beneficial to Gu masters, so just order whatever you want to eat.”
Fang Yuan smiled. It was not easy for him to make these eight people accept him wholeheartedly, so he could only conquer them one by one.
If he could get them to eat this meal comfortably, they would not be able to follow Gu Tianqing and go against him in the future.
Ruan Qinghe blinked. “Really?”
“Of course.” Fang Yuan smiled. “Everyone has worked hard on this journey, if we don’t eat well, how will we have the energy to participate in the Gu Dao convention?”
After getting an affirmative answer, everyone started to order, but they restrained themselves. Other than the Gu siblings, the seven of them only ordered five dishes in total.
Wan Qian did not want Fang Yuan to spend money.
As for the others, they could not really let loose. “How can five dishes be enough to feed all of
us?”
Gu Tianqing’s lips curled up. “Senior Fang is generous. If we don’t order more, we will be letting him down.”
After two sentences, he took the menu and ordered more than ten dishes, and they were all Green Bamboo Garden’s signature dishes. They were expensive, and one of them was even sold for ten thousand primeval stones.
Was he trying to make him feel pain?
Fang Yuan did not care. Primeval stones were just worldly goods, and with his current methods, it was easy for him to earn a few hundred thousand.
On the contrary, the more expensive the food these Gu Immortal Sect disciples ate, the more embarrassed they would be to find trouble with Fang Yuan in the future.
This Gu Tianqing helped him without even knowing it. He really was something. Fang Yuan could not help but sigh.
They were prodigies, and this Gu Tianqing could not compare to Bai Yao.
He did not have any shrewdness. Fang Yuan did not know how he survived until now.
The dishes were served quickly, and before long, the table was filled with food. The taste was not bad, and everyone was praising the food.
At the banquet, Fang Yuan mentioned matters related to the Gu Dao convention to everyone. This was what he learned after he and Wan Qian left the Wan residence and went to inquire about.
But there was no important information. They did not know how the convention was going to be held, and no information was revealed.
Right now, they only knew the number of participating sects, the location of the competition venue, and the time to report before the competition.
Zhou Chang put down the chopsticks in his hand and smiled. “This time, we have Senior Fang leading the team. Not to mention first place, we will definitely secure top three, right?”
“There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the Yan Shen Empire. I’m only at the fifth layer of the Enlightenment Realm, how can I be sure?” Fang Yuan shook his head lightly.
“Senior, you’re too modest.”
Qin Han laughed bitterly, “I feel that even if I advance to the fifth layer of the Enlightenment Realm, I still won’t have the confidence to withstand five moves from you.”
Ruan Qinghe smiled faintly, revealing two dimples. “Senior’s most powerful skill is his Gu control technique, it’s too cool!” Wan Qian looked at her with a sense of crisis.
Gu Tianqing did not interrupt.
Strength was his trauma.
Being unable to defeat Fang Yuan was his eternal pain.
But he just could not accept it.
The position should have belonged to him with unlimited glory. How could it be snatched away by a kid who appeared out of nowhere?
Time passed slowly.
Fang Yuan gradually got along with everyone and chatted happily. Seeing that everyone was almost done eating, he went out to settle the bill.
The meal cost 120,000 primeval stones.
It was more than 10,000 per person.
Fang Yuan had already exchanged the cultivation resources that Vice City Lord Xu had given him for primeval stones. After paying for the meal, he was left with more than 30,000 primeval stones, and felt a little short of money.
“Looks like I have to get some money again.” Fang Yuan was thinking about whether he should go to the capital’s gambling den, but since there was no urgent need to spend money, he figured he should wait until after the Gu Dao convention.
The rest of the people quickly followed, the male disciples placed their hands on each other’s shoulders, and other than Gu Tianqing, they formed a small group, chatting about everything
The girls were walking in front, chatting and laughing. No one knew what they were talking about.
Fang Yuan saw this scene and knew that he did not treat them for nothing. Not only did he unite their circle, he also strengthened his prestige, killing two birds with one stone.
“It’s late, let’s go back early. After the Gu Dao convention is over, I will bring you guys around the capital.”Fang Yuan smiled.
Ruan Qinghe raised her hands with a peace sign. “Yeah! Long live Senior!”
The others were also overjoyed, their praises never ending.
Gu Tianqing walked at the back, feeling more lonely listening to them.
Fang Yuan waited for them to leave first, then came to Gu Tianqing’s side, walking side by side with him.
The group entered the darkness. As they ate late, the surroundings were cold and quiet.
Gu Tianqing laughed at himself. “I lost, laugh if you want to.”
“Why would I laugh at you?” Fang Yuan looked at him. “Junior Gu, we have never been enemies, you don’t have to stand against me.”
“Do you know how long I have been in the Gu Immortal Sect?” Gu Tianqing suddenly asked.
“How long?”
“Seven years.”
Gu Tianqing said dejectedly. “I used three years to build my foundation and advance to the inner sect, and four years to break through to Enlightenment, cultivating to my current level. Countless elders praised me, saying that I had the ability to transcend tribulation and ascend, but in the end…”
He looked straight at Fang Yuan. “You easily took the position of the team leader because you are Gu Zhenren’s disciple. Under his support, you grew faster than me.”
Sure enough, jealousy made people change people beyond recognition that they even their brains disappear.
Fang Yuan couldn’t help but be speechless. “Do you feel that Master is a fool?”
Gu Tianqing was stunned. “The sect master is knowledgeable and has wisdom that no one can compare to.”
“Then do you think that Master is my father?”
“Isn’t your father a wealthy businessman in Yunding City?”
“Then that’s all there is to it.” Fang Yuan rolled his eyes. “Master and I are not related, and he’s not stupid. Why would he randomly support a disciple?”
“You mean… the sect master sent you out for another reason?”
ILII
Fang Yuan looked at him as if he was looking at a fool. Then, he slowly opened his mouth.
“Master supported me, Fang Yuan.” “And of course it’s because…”
“I’m more handsome than you!”
