Hu Xiaobei heard Zhujun's mocking remark but said nothing...

He knew it was pointless to argue with such scum!

All he needed to do was slap his face hard with facts!

With that thought, Hu Xiaobei glanced at Haruno Nanako and said, "Nanako, go fetch me some water."

Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's request, Haruno Nanako quickly said, "Water? Xiaobei, what kind of water do you need?"

"Just anything! The kind we drink will do, take it straight from the tap to make it easy."

"Okay! Xiaobei, just wait, I'll get it for you right away."

After promptly agreeing, Haruno Nanako turned and ran.

Watching her leave, Hu Xiaobei smiled and continued to carefully support the recently planted orchid.

"Fetching water? Even if you scooped water from the Turquoise Pool, it would be useless!"

Having thrown out this mockery, Zhujun prepared to sit and enjoy the show quietly!

It was then that he realized there wasn't much around to sit on...

Frowning, Zhujun glanced at a bespectacled man standing not far away and said, "Are you dead or something? Haven't you got a clue? Go fetch me a chair!"

The bespectacled man twitched at the corners of his mouth after being berated by Zhujun!

Soon after, he quickly pulled over a chair...

"Slow and useless!"

Cursing, Zhujun sat down...

After seating himself, he looked at Hu Xiaobei and said with a chilling voice, "You little trash! I'll just watch from here, let's see what tricks you can pull off!"

Having said this, he heard footsteps!

Turning his head, he saw his lackey quickly approaching!

Looking at him, Zhujun frowned hard...

Just as he was about to say something, his lackey spoke first...

"Boss, this guy seems very confident, could he really revive this dead orchid?"

Hearing these anxious words, Zhujun coldly furrowed his brows...

Quickly, he said bluntly, "What are you thinking about all day, this orchid is dead, how could it possibly be revived!"

Zhujun really felt like kicking this trash away as he seemed to always be tearing him down...

The bespectacled man, mocked by Zhujun, rubbed his nose with a bitter smile and said grievously, "Boss, you can't blame me for worrying! Hu Xiaobei really does seem confident. That's why I'm really unsure!"

"Confident? Confident my ass! This orchid is thoroughly dead. Forget him, even I, even the Master, even an Immortal couldn't revive it."

"Big brother, that's... that's what I thought too. But... but I'm scared, you know! Better safe than sorry."

"Safe than sorry my ass! Whose side are you on? If you're not with me, just piss off."

Angered!

Zhujun was completely angered...

Because this Kenghuo was constantly dousing him with cold water!

Feeling Zhujun's rage, he awkwardly rubbed his nose and quickly explained, "Boss, I... I'm of course with you, but... but I'm just scared, okay?"

"Scared my ass, get lost now. Otherwise, I'll kick you to death!"

"Yes! I won't say more, I won't!"

With an awkward chuckle, he quickly backed off to one side...

Seeing him retreat, Zhujun's expression softened slightly...

Soon after, he turned his attention to Hu Xiaobei...

Just then, he noticed Hu Xiaobei looked truly calm!

As if everything was under control...

"Could it be that he really is confident about reviving this dead orchid?"

Muttering to himself, he hesitated for a moment before walking up to Ling Shangshu...

Having stood firm, he said respectfully, "Master, I..."

Ling Shangshu, hearing Zhujun's address, coldly said, "Shut up! Don't call me Master."

Caught off guard by the interruption, Zhujun felt awkward...

Soon, he said, "Old sir, I... I just want to ask, do you think this dead orchid can be saved from the fire?"

On hearing Zhujun's inquiry, Ling Shangshu squinted his eyes and said, "Once an orchid plant dies, it's very difficult to revive. There might be one person in this world who could revive a dead orchid! But that person is not in our Japan, so you can relax now."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Relieved by Ling Shangshu's words, Zhujun felt more at ease...

He then curiously asked, "You just mentioned that there is someone who could revive a dead orchid, who is that person?"

"It's no use telling you! Besides, I don't know for sure if that person can definitely revive a dead orchid!"

Ling Shangshu was actually referring to Hu Xiaobei at that moment...

Before, in Huaxia, he had heard too many legendary stories about Hu Xiaobei!

That's why he thought that Hu Xiaobei might have the ability to revive a dead orchid.

But he was not sure...

While in Huaxia, Ling Shangshu had never seen an image of Hu Xiaobei, otherwise, he would have been able to recognize that this young man in front of him was the Hu Xiaobei he held in such high esteem...

"Yes, I won't ask anymore!"

Embarrassed, he scratched his head and sat back down in his original seat!

Afterward, he coldly watched Hu Xiaobei, believing that this time he was truly set to win, completely set to win.

...

While he was thinking this triumphantly, he heard footsteps!

Looking up, he saw Haruno Nanako running quickly towards him with a cup of water in hand.

"She is truly a beautiful and lovely girl, and soon, she will be mine!"

As he watched Haruno Nanako, he unconsciously licked his lips...

At the same time, a flicker of restlessness flashed in his eyes...

Haruno Nanako didn't know he was staring at her, and now she had come before Hu Xiaobei!

"Brother Xiaobei, here's the water!"

"Thank you!"

Hu Xiaobei said as he reached out his hand...

After passing the water, Haruno Nanako quickly said, "Brother Xiaobei, I took this water directly from the kitchen tap, is that okay?"

"No problem!"

Hu Xiaobei smiled and shook the cup of water in his hand...

At that moment, everyone's gaze shifted toward Hu Xiaobei.

Everyone wanted to see what kind of trick Hu Xiaobei was about to pull.

Both Haruno Nanako and Haruno Rei had seen Hu Xiaobei's strength before, and because of that, they believed Hu Xiaobei could definitely succeed!

But the others didn't believe it; they felt that Hu Xiaobei was now merely showing off and wasting time.

Hu Xiaobei understood their disdain, but he didn't care.

With a faint smile, Hu Xiaobei walked up to the orchid that had been planted...

After glancing at the withered orchid, he smiled and slowly watered it...

The water appeared ordinary, but it was not, because just a moment ago, Hu Xiaobei had infused it with Nine Wood True Qi...

...

"What... What is this idiot planning to do? He can't possibly expect that this water will revive the dead orchid."

Mocking him, Zhujun glanced at his henchman and said coldly, "Now, you see? This fool is simply wasting our valuable time!"

Hearing this cold mockery, the bespectacled henchman pushed up his glasses...

Soon, he muttered under his breath, "Could this young man really be all bark and no bite?"

As he muttered, he heard Zhujun's cold scorn...

"You fool, stop wasting our precious time and just give up already! All that talk about reviving the orchid, what a load of crap!"

Triumphantly!

At this moment, Zhujun displayed his triumph to the utmost extent...

Really.

It was as if he was about to leap up and bite someone.

Hu Xiaobei heard this arrogant speech but didn't care!

Instead, he continued to water nonstop.

Seeing that Hu Xiaobei was ignoring him, Zhujun sneered and prepared to step forward to knock the water cup from Hu Xiaobei's hand...

But just as he took a step, Zhujun froze...

Because in that instant, he saw a trace of green sprouting at the tip of the dead orchid.

"I... I must be seeing things."

He trembled as he continued to look!

Soon, his complexion became extremely unsightly!

Because he saw that on the branch, indeed, new green was emerging...

As an expert, he knew what this hint of green represented...

"This, what the hell is going on here, this is simply... impossible! The orchid was clearly completely dead, how could it possibly come back to life, how could it!"

Zhujun, astonished to the extreme, fiercely grabbed a handful of his own hair.

In an instant, twenty or thirty strands of hair were easily pulled out by him.

Ouch!

As this clump of hair was pulled out, Zhujun felt a bone-deep pain, making him realize that everything before his eyes was real!
