Chapter 281: King Of Dullness

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

Bei Feng sighed nostalgically. This place was too familiar to him! Every blade of grass, and every flower felt like something close to his heart.

Right now, the old mansion was exceptionally lively. The area outside was filled with numerous simple temporary constructs. A few people from the Nie Clan were standing along the mountainous path to welcome the guests.

Mystic Three stepped forward and handed the invitation card over, along with some gifts.

Bei Feng simply stood silently to the back as he regarded the old mansion which he had spent so many years in. This place was where his fate changed.

The moment Mystic Three handed the invitation over, Maniac Nie was informed of Bei Feng's arrival. The juniors in charge of collecting the invitation cards had been instructed to inform him immediately when Bei Feng arrived.

"Bei Feng, come with me. Grandfather wants to meet you. Remember what you promised!" Nie Yun reminded again as he reluctantly went to receive Bei Feng.

"I'll naturally remember." Bei Feng chuckled lightly. With his current strength and abilities, was there any girls that he could not match up to?

"It's good that you remember. I'm just worried that you'll change your mind after seeing her!" Nie Yun continued quibbling anxiously as he led Bei Feng into the old mansion.

A hint of reminiscence flashed past Bei Feng's eyes as he stepped into the room which he had decorated himself. At the same time, he regarded the people in the room carefully and proceeded to greet the old patriarch.

"Greetings, Nie Patriarch."

There were five people in the room. Wu Zhong Xing, Maniac Nie, and two other middle-aged men whom he had never seen before.

The last person was a 20-something-year-old lady. The young lady was exceptionally quiet, and she stood silently beside Maniac Nie, looking at Bei Feng curiously.

'There doesn't seem to be anything special about him... why would grandpa have such thoughts?' Nie Qing Cheng thought as she cocked her head slightly, evaluating Bei Feng.

Maniac Nie nodded and beamed warmly, "En, you're not exactly an outsider, so I'll just call you Xiao Feng."

Bei Feng furrowed his brows lightly. This wily old fox was truly good with his words. With that sentence alone, he was already establishing that Bei Feng was a part of the Nie Family! In the end, Bei Feng did not say anything about it and only nodded his head.

"Xiao Feng, where are you cultivating at currently?"

Truthfully, Maniac Nie was also feeling exceedingly conflicted in that moment. He could not detect Bei Feng's blood and Qi aura at all. It was like the latter was just a regular person. If not for his trust that Wu Zhong Xing was not one to joke around, he would thing that Wu Zhong Xing was playing a trick on him!

"I'm like the solitary cloud and the wild geese, so there isn't any fixed place of cultivation," Bei Feng answered honestly.

But to the ears of Maniac Nie, this bit of news caused his eyes to light up. Since he did not belong to any specific power, there was a great chance of convincing the kid to join the clan!

"What do you think of my Nie Clan?" Maniac Nie asked directly without beating around the bush.

"It's not bad. But if Patriarch Nie hopes for me to join the Nie Clan, please forgive me for being unable to do so. I'm already used to a life of freedom. Leading a life without worries is pretty good too."

At this point, Bei Feng could already guess what Maniac Nie was about to say. Without waiting for him to raise the question, he directly rejected.

Maniac Nie's face stiffened quickly as his brows bristled lightly. "I'm tired. I'm going to rest now; all of you can go first."

Bei Feng raised his eyebrows lightly. That was a way of asking him to leave. Without a second word, he directly turned and left.

"Hmph! Patriarch, that kid is already behaving so presumptuously with his little bit of achievements. I object to him joining the Nie Clan!" Nie Hai spoke up immediately after Bei Feng left the room.

Maniac Nie was also deep in thoughts. For some reason, the feeling that the youth gave him was different from the rest. With his many years of experience, he could feel that the youth was as he thought.

Maniac Nie fell into silence for a moment before shaking his head, "Let's wait and see first."

"In the meantime, Qing Cheng, you can try interacting with him first. Both of you are around the same age, so you should have some common topics to talk about," Maniac Nie continued in a gentle tone.

"Ok, Grandpa."

Nie Qing Cheng was also rather interested in this mysterious youth. As the beloved granddaughter of a powerful clan, she still had some level of confidence in herself and her looks. But when Bei Feng stepped through the door, he had only given her a perfunctory glance and did not look at her anymore!

Bei Feng exited the room and found a random place to sit down and poured himself a cup of tea. Mystic Three stood behind him respectfully.

"Why aren't you going to talk with them?"

It was unknown when Nie Qing Cheng had arrived beside Bei Feng. Her voice was soft and clear like jade.

"I don't know them."

Bei Feng did not even raise his head as he concentrated on his tea. It was as if nothing existed in his eye except for the teapot.

"Oh."

Nie Qing Cheng made a sound in her throat awkwardly. This fellow was definitely the King of Dullness! In just one sentence, she had already ran out of things to say.

'This person is really strange though. He's obviously a 20-something-year-old person, but he somehow gives me a feeling like he's an experienced old man. There isn't any indication of the liveliness of youths on him at all,' Nie Qing Cheng evaluated silently.

"Qing Cheng!"

A tall man with handsome features strode over with a wide smile.

"Why are you here as well? Aren't you supposed to be out of the country at this time?"

Nie Qing Cheng's face stiffened slightly. Why was this annoying fellow here again!

"Haha, I naturally rushed back from Southeast Asia the moment I received news of the Nie Clan's ancestral worship ceremony!"

Cao Weizhuang looked at Nie Qing Cheng with a heated gaze, as if he could not wait to swallow her whole.

Cao Weizhuang's clan was not ordinary. Compared to the current Nie Clan, it was not only its equal, but even exceeded it in strength.

However, he also knew that Nie Qing Cheng did not like him. This was made worse when he refused to extend a helping hand when the Nie Clan was forced to extreme ends recently. It was obvious that he was waiting for the Nie clan to fall. At that time, Nie Qing Cheng would still become his without him needing to do anything.

But who would have thought that Maniac Nie would suddenly break through to the Xiantian level! He even killed the opposing clan's Xiantian Lord immediately after breaking through! This turn of events was really a huge unexpected twist.

However, Cao Weizhuang did not give up or feel ashamed because of his actions. Instead, he felt even more resolute in his pursuit! The Cao Clan may be strong, but they needed allies as well. If he could marry Nie Qing Cheng, they would gain a powerful ally—the current Nie Clan was not to be underestimated as well!

If he managed to marry her, he would get both the girl and the fortune! That would be perfect!

"Qing Cheng, let's go over there and talk. I'll introduce some of my friends to you."

Cao Weizhuang gestured grandly.

Nie Qing Cheng pointed at Bei Feng and said, "I'm sorry, I'm accompanying a friend, so I won't be going with you."

A villian's tricks were obvious to everyone on the streets. Nie Qing Cheng could tell what Cao Wei Zhuang was planning with just one glance.

"That's fine, I believe your friend will be happy to join us too?" Cao Wei Zhuang suggested darkly as a shady look came over his eyes.

Bei Feng's tea-brewing actions were as smooth as drifting clouds and flowing waters, causing one to feel strangely serene watching him. He casually poured himself another cup of tea, took a sip and said calmly, "Not interested."

"Friend, does this mean that you're not going to give me any face?"

Cao Wei Zhuang's face darkened swiftly, and his voice turned cold and menacing.

"Who the hell are you that I should give you face? Get lost."

Bei Feng continued drinking his tea in a dispassionate manner. The earth and sky was vast beyond compare. As long as he did not intentionally provoke a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert, there was no place he couldn't go. An annoying ant who had not even reached the Evolved Jing realm actually dared to clown about before him? It was already very fortunate for Cao Weizhuang that he did not smack him to death with a single slap on the spot.
