Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 139
Chapter 0139 Give Me A Reward!
His attitude relieved Old Man Chen. Actually, he didn’t want to deal with the royal family anymore. Those fellows always looked high and mighty. The Third Prince was very easy to get along with. He didn’t have any airs. Moreover, he was gentle and approachable.
“Chen Shinan greets Mr. Iron Staff!” He then bowed to the Iron Staff Guest. There was nothing he could do. He was an Earthly Martial Realm expert, so he couldn’t afford to offend him!
He had been cursing Qin Fei in his heart. This bastard brat, the Iron Staff Guest had been a guest of the Pill Master Association for so long, yet Qin Fei didn’t say a word. He really deserved to be beaten up!
The Iron Scepter saw Old Man Chen salute him, how could he dare to accept it? Although this old man’s status wasn’t as high as his, he was Qin Fei’s master. If he accepted his salute safely, wouldn’t it embarrass Qin Fei?
He hastily avoided his body and said, “Guild Leader Chen is too courteous! I absolutely dare not accept it!”
Seeing that Old Man Chen was about to say something else, Qin Fei hurriedly shouted, “Master, where are Eldest Brother and the others?”
As expected, his words diverted Old Man Chen’s attention. He said angrily, “You still know how to care about your Eldest Senior Brother and the others? You stinking brat, can you talk to Master about everything in the future?”
As soon as he said this, he instantly felt that something was wrong. The meaning behind his words seemed to be very dissatisfied with Qin Fei’s rescue of the Third Prince.
He immediately broke out in cold sweat and hurriedly added, “I mean next time, next time, not this time!”
He secretly glanced at Zhu Li and sighed in relief when he saw that he was still smiling and did not seem to be angry because of this sentence.
Who was Qin Fei? He chose a role that he would never let go of. Seeing Old Man Chen like this, he rolled his eyes and thought about it. He chuckled and said to Old Man Chen, “Master, don’t worry, I won’t tell you first in the future. Look, I saved the Third Prince this time and made such a great contribution to the glory of the Pill Master Association. Do you want to give me a reward?”
When Old Man Chen heard this, he immediately knew what he was thinking. He wondered in his heart, “You saved the Third Prince, not me. Why should you ask me for credit?”
However, he didn’t dare to say such words. This was disrespectful!
No matter how powerful the Pill Masters Association was, they had to obey the orders of the empire’s royal family. He didn’t dare to utter such outrageous words.
Qin Fei rolled his eyes at Zhu Li. Zhu Li immediately understood what he meant. He smiled and said, “Brother Fei, you saved me. Naturally, you should let me hear this sentence in Old Man Chen’s ears, but it tasted completely different. It seemed like he was being too stingy.”
Although he disliked dealing with people from the royal family, he had no choice but to make a gesture and hurriedly said, “Third Prince, look at what you said. Qin Fei is our underling disciple. It is only natural that he should be able to do something for you.”
“Master, I’ve used up all the pills in my body this time. Do you think you can give me some help?” Of course, Qin Fei would not wait for this matter to be discussed in the future. Taking advantage of Zhu Li’s presence, he quickly settled the matter.
Old Man Chen was almost unable to suppress his anger, but now that the Third Prince was around, it was not easy for him to get angry. He knew very well that Qin Fei had kept his promise and would never wait until the autumn to settle accounts when he wanted to blackmail someone.
“Good disciple, I didn’t bring any pills with me this time. Why don’t I replenish them for you when I get back?” As the saying goes, ginger is still old and spicy. With a flash of his eyes, he came up with a countermeasure. Wait until the Third Prince is gone, and see if he can give the pill to him?
“Hehe, Master, you are so old that your memory is not good. I clearly remember Eldest Senior Brother saying that you brought enough pills with you this time. Actually, I don’t need more. All you need to do is give me five Mortal Martial Grade 4 pills.” Qin Fei wouldn’t be fooled. This old fox is farting when he speaks. If you believe him, why don’t you give it back? That was simply empty talk.
Old Man Chen’s eyes widened, “What? What did Ao Tian say? This brat actually betrayed me!”
This was equivalent to not confessing!
He smiled and said, “Look, my memory is really bad. I forgot to bring out some pills. However, Ao Tian is not sure. I only brought out two Tier 4 Mortal Martial Pills, and I need one myself. Why don’t I give you one?”
“Sure, one for each!” Qin Fei knew that this kind of thing had to be done voluntarily by both parties. If he forced Old Man Chen to be anxious, he wouldn’t have any good fruit to eat.
One of them counted as one, so he wouldn’t dislike it.
Old Man Chen handed him a pill in distress. Qin Fei was not polite either. He threw it into his stomach and chewed a few times. He nodded and praised, “These Tier 4 Mortal Martial Pills are really fragrant. They’re like fried beans. It’s really good to bring them over to drink!”
Old Man Chen almost exploded with anger …
Ao Tian and the others had already rushed to the Southern Mountain Prefecture, so Qin Fei and the others didn’t need to look for them anymore and directly headed towards the Southern Mountain Prefecture.
Zhu Li chatted with Qin Fei along the way. Old Man Chen’s eyes almost popped out from watching from the side. This cheap disciple of his was really awesome. He actually addressed the Third Prince as brother. If the Third Prince rolled over in the future, Qin Fei’s life would be much easier in the future!
Four days later, he arrived outside the Southern Mountain Prefecture. Zhu Li stood on a hillside five miles away from the city and said goodbye to everyone. The situation was special now, so he needed to hurry back to the imperial capital immediately. It was inconvenient for him to go to the Pill Master Association with Qin Fei, so that those people wouldn’t waste his time if they found out about his identity.
“Brother Fei! You must come to the Imperial Capital. When the time comes, I will bring you to the Imperial Palace as a guest!” Zhu Li sincerely invited.
Qin Fei nodded. The imperial capital was definitely going. If he wanted to search for other fragments of the Profound Spirit Cauldron, he had to make a trip to the imperial capital.
Zhu Li then looked at the Iron Scepter and bowed, “Mr. Iron Scepter, I know what the ancestors did to the Iron Castle back then. If I can speak in court one day, I will definitely support the Iron Castle and let Tie Obo return to his former glory!”
Hearing this, the Iron Staff Guest was instantly overjoyed and hurriedly returned the greeting.
Old Man Chen muttered to himself, “How can Iron Castle regain its former glory?” Weaponry forging has been lost. It has been hundreds of years since there was a Weaponry Forger in this world …
“Guild Leader Chen, I, Zhu Li, will forever remember this kindness! I will definitely repay you generously in the future!” Zhu Li thanked Old Man Chen again.
He left. As soon as he arrived at the city gate, he revealed his identity. Immediately, the Prefecture City Lord panicked. He hastily arranged for thousands of soldiers to escort him to the prefecture city. Then, the prefecture city escorted him to the imperial capital!
Once Zhu Li was escorted by the government, there was no need to worry about his safety. Qin Fei also packed up his mood and followed Old Man Chen into the city to the Pill Master Association.
On the streets, Old Man Chen looked at the Iron Staff Guest many times, and on several occasions, he revealed a hesitant expression.
Qin Fei saw it and knew what Old Man Chen wanted to say. He smiled and said, “Master, if you have something to say, you can say it openly!”
“Let’s go. Let’s not go to the association first. Let’s find a restaurant to rest for a while. I’m a little hungry!” Old Man Chen sighed, his tone extremely solemn.
The three of them walked into a restaurant where business was booming. It was almost noon, and there were many people coming to eat. The lobby was full. Old Man Chen asked for an elegant room and prepared to eat in a quiet place.
After the waiter of the restaurant brought the food, Old Man Chen waved his hand and told the waiter to leave. He was not allowed to enter without summoning the waiter.
Qin Fei guessed that what he was going to say was definitely related to the Iron Staff Guest, so he didn’t bother to ask any further and started to eat the delicious food on the table in large mouthfuls.
The journey from Xuan City to the Prefecture City had lasted for several days. Every time, he had casually gotten some dry food to solve the problem of food and clothing. It had been a long time since he had eaten these big fish and big meat. Of course, he would not be polite. He would eat and drink nonsense. He would fill his stomach first and then he would have the energy to listen to Old Man Chen’s complaints.
“Brat, don’t pretend you don’t know. Tell me what happened to the Nine Peaks Camel Old Man?” Old Man Chen knocked off the vegetables Qin Fei picked up with a chopstick and said with his eyes wide open.
Qin Fei curled his lips and put down his chopsticks to explain the situation in detail.
“Master, not a single word of my words is false, “I really didn’t know the Iron Scepter that day. He attacked Duan Ruoyan because of the Dark Moon Divine Art of the Black Tortoise Palace. I was stopped by Duan Ruoyan and the Nine Peaks Camel Elder. They wanted to hand over the thousand year old crystal. Of course, I couldn’t beat them to death. Fortunately, the Iron Scepter appeared in time and sent the Nine Peaks Camel Elder and Duan Ruoyan away.”
