Over The World, Beyond Heaven

Chapter 916: The Truth of Comrade City (1)


"Grandpa Shi-Kong, we didn't intend to do anything bad. We just ran into this younger brother while walking. And we only invited him to chat," the elder brother immediately explained.

Chat!?

"Then why do you have to chat in a quiet place? Why don't you go to chat in the pavilion? Or in the clan's living room? Wouldn't those places be more suitable?" The elder knew and heard everything the two young men talked about. He just did not say it directly.

"Err! We... we just..."

"Actually, it's good too. Because I also like quiet places. If the place where Young Masters are taking me is really quiet, I don't mind." Zheng-Fu did not ask about their intentions. He just smiled at the corner of his mouth and agreed to go talk in a quiet place.

Hah!?

"Then I'll go with Little Comrade as well. Because I also have something I want to talk to you about." The elder did not know what Zheng-Fu was thinking. But he would never let these three young men be together by themselves. So, he asked to go along.

"Erm…"

"Or are you two unwilling to have me go with you?" And when he saw that the two young men were hesitant and stammered, as if they were unwilling, the elder asked in a serious tone.

"Not like that, Grandpa Shi-Kong. We're willing to have you go with us. It's just that that quiet place... I think, might not be quiet now. So, I thought of inviting him to the resting pavilion instead. Do you mind?"

The young man knew that he could not do anything anymore. Because the quiet place they meant at first was the forest behind the clan. If the elder went there with them, he would definitely know that they had bad intentions towards Zheng-Fu. Therefore, the young man thought of a way to move to a new place.

"Oh, what a pity. If you think so, let's chat at the resting pavilion." Zheng-Fu did not intend to push or pressure the two young men. Because he had other plans in his mind. He then continued to say, "Ah! But wait, wait! Oh, how could I forget this? I forgot that I was busy. I have to go back to my room first. Actually, I'm concocting the medicine just now. I don't know how the medicine in my cauldron is now. Hopefully, nothing will happen to the tenth-level energy enhancement divine medicine! So, I have to excuse myself first." After finishing speaking, Zheng-Fu immediately turned around and ran out without paying attention to anyone.

Hah!

"Did he say that he was concocting some kind of medicine now?" the younger brother, who had his head down, suddenly raised his head and asked in shock. He clearly heard Zheng-Fu talking about tenth-level divine medicine. He was just not sure if he misheard it. So, he asked his elder brother and the elder who was standing in shock.

"I think you heard right. Is it right, Grandpa? Did you hear it like us?" The elder brother knew that he had not heard wrongly. Because his younger brother heard it too. But in shock, he could not help but turn and ask the elder.

"He said he was concocting the tenth-level energy enhancement divine medicine!" The elder said slowly with a frozen and stunned face. He could hardly believe his ears just now. And perhaps his answer was just a repeat of Zheng-Fu's words.

Zheng-Fu, who had run away, smiled happily and was satisfied with his actions. He knew that soon the three of them would definitely come after him. At that point, he would say that concocting the medicine was not successful because he was still an inexperienced apothecary.

"Little Comrade!"

It was as Zheng-Fu thought. Soon after, he returned to his room. The elder followed him, calling him in an excited tone.

"What's the matter, Master Elder?" Zheng-Fu asked with a feigned bewilderment on his face as soon as he opened the door.

"Err... I... I'd like to ask you, earlier, what kind of medicine you said you were concocting?" The elder asked Zheng-Fu with an embarrassed expression. Because this kind of thing was not something that an elder should do at all. But he had to do it because it was very important. Tenth-level divine medicine was not easy to find.

"I said I'm concocting the tenth-level energy enhancement divine medicine. However, it had failed just now. Because my experience and ability to concoct the medicine are still too low. Plus the existing ingredients had already been used up. By the way, why do you ask?" Zheng-Fu immediately explained as he had prepared earlier. His expression now was very calm. But inside, his heart was filled with amusement.

Ah!

"Erm… No! Nothing, I'm just asking. In case you need our help with something," replied the elder. He smiled dryly, raising his hand to scratch his head to relieve his embarrassment. Before he continued to say, "Then I won't disturb your time. You can rest until the feast begins." As soon as he finished speaking, the elder quickly walked away.

"Thank you, Master Elder Shi-Kong. Then I'm going to rest," Zheng-Fu replied with a slight nod to the elder. Before he closed the door and walked back to the bed.

"It looks like I can't stay at Comrade City any longer. It's better to leave now. There will be no more serious problems causing headaches."

After thinking for a moment, Zheng-Fu decided to leave Comrade City for now. He did not wait to join the feast or stay until late at night. But as he prepared to leave Emerald Wolf Clan, something happened.

Groooaaan!!!

The earth suddenly shook violently. Meanwhile, an aura of energy spread throughout Comrade City. Zheng-Fu could sense that this energy wave belonged to a Deity stage identity. Only Grandmasters of that level could unleash the aura like this.

"What happened? Why does it have such a Deity stage aura?" Zheng-Fu stood up and quickly used his psychic power to scan the area around Comrade City.

Bang!!!

"Little Comrade!"

At the same time, the elder returned to Zheng-Fu's room again with a panicked face.

"Master Elder Shi-Kong, what happened?" Zheng-Fu knew that the elder had to definitely know what was going on outside.

"Something bad happened. It was too difficult for any of us to handle. So, I'd like to... Hmm, Little Comrade, please come with me to the clan's main hall?" The elder still did not say what was going on. He only invited Zheng-Fu to the clan's main hall first.

"Alright, I'll go with you!" Zheng-Fu did not know what the other party wanted. But he could not escape this current problem. So, he agreed to follow the elder to the clan's main hall.

"Thank you!"

Ten minutes passed, in the main hall of Emerald Wolf Clan...

"I brought him here, Clan leader." As Zheng-Fu and the elder arrived at the main hall of the Emerald Wolf Clan, the elder immediately clasped his hands and reported to the middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the room.

"Is this him? And is he really as strong as you say?" It was the first time the middle-aged man saw Zheng-Fu. Previously, he had only heard Zheng-Fu's name. And when he saw Zheng-Fu in person, he could not help but wonder if this young man was really that strong.

"I believe so, Clan leader!" The elder did not dare to fully guarantee. But he was more than eight out of ten confident that Zheng-Fu was very strong.

"Respect, Clan leader," Zheng-Fu did not want to be rude, so he clasped his hands to greet the middle-aged man.

"Don't have to be formal, Little Comrade. I wanted to meet you because Master Elder Shi-Kong said you were very strong. I, therefore, have one thing to ask for your help with. And I definitely won't let you work for us for free." The middle-aged man immediately went straight to the main point about why he wanted to see Zheng-Fu.

"Father! Are you sick? Do you say that this young apothecary is strong? I don't feel like that at all!" When the middle-aged man finished speaking, his eldest son protested because he could not believe what he had heard.

"That's right, Father! No matter what, he shouldn't have more energy than the Heavenly Foundation Building stage. Or at most only the initial Heavenly Golden Core stage. How can he be as strong as you say?" The clan leader's second son thought the same as his elder brother.

"Then how could someone with only the energy levels you said, suddenly appear behind the cultivators at the advanced Heavenly Star stage and initial Deity Soul stage without you realizing it?" Elder Shi-Kong interjected sarcastically. To remind the two young men of their previous encounter with Zheng-Fu.

Hah!

Of course, the two young men had forgotten about this matter. And the elder's words reminded them of Zheng-Fu's presence, which was like a ghost.

Of course, everyone present in this hall had the same thoughts as the young men. But upon hearing Elder Shi-Kong's words, they suddenly became suspicious. They saw that the two brothers immediately tensed up and looked extremely agitated. Many people believed that Zheng-Fu's energy level had to be higher than both brothers. But even then, everyone still thought that it would not be much higher.

"Quiet, everyone!" The clan leader raised his hand and told everyone to quiet down. He turned to look at Zheng-Fu again and asked, "What do you say, Little Comrade? How will you decide?" What he needed right now was Zheng-Fu's answer. And he wanted to know if Zheng-Fu was truly as strong as the elder said.

"I cannot accept your offer," Zheng-Fu immediately refused without hesitation.

"Why not? Or do you want to add any conditions?" The middle-aged man frowned slightly when he saw that Zheng-Fu rejected him without hesitation.

"That's because…" Zheng-Fu thought he might need to explain. But before he could speak, he was interrupted.

"It's just as I thought that you would refuse. Because you're not really strong. Otherwise, you would have already agreed. You really are a coward!" The clan leader's eldest son did not hesitate to taunt him when he saw that Zheng-Fu refused to help.

"Or maybe it's because you want to increase the reward conditions?" The second son of the clan leader added sharply.

"Both of you, shut up! If you continue this nonsense commotion, I'll have the two of you go to wait outside!" Finally, the clan leader could not bear it, seeing that Zheng-Fu was about to tell the reason, but his sons thoughtlessly interrupted. So, he scolded them to keep them quiet and stop harassing others.

"Father!!!"

Hah!?

"Yes, sir, Father. We'll keep our mouths shut."
