63: C63 Transverse Clade

C63 Transverse Clade

"A thousand points?!" "Is this a number that humans can reach?"

The moment Nie Zhen's score was announced, everyone was petrified. All of their expressions froze. At this moment, the scene was unusually quiet...

"Nie Zhen... "You …" Hai Yunshang pointed her trembling finger at Nie Zhen, but she couldn't say anything. She didn't know what to say.

Murong Cheng looked at Nie Zhen in disbelief. He didn't find it strange that Nie Zhen had won first place, but to win first place with such an overwhelming score was a completely different matter.

"Nie Zhen... "Who is Nie Zhen …"

"Does anyone know who Nie Zhen is? Is this a score that can be won by anyone?!"

"Nie Zhen... Isn't it just the Infernal King, Nie Zhen?! " Most of the people who were born in Chisong Prefecture had heard of this name. After all, the things Nie Zhen did were quite noisy at the time.

In an instant, Nie Zhen's name spread across the entire trial participants. Everyone was asking the practitioners of Chisong Prefecture about Nie Zhen's rumors.

"Damn him!" Eighth Prince glared hatefully at Nie Zhen. In his opinion, the champion that should have been won by Nie Zhen had been snatched away, and the cooked duck had flown away just like that. It was really hateful.

"Alright, other than the top hundred challengers, the rest of the challengers can return to their homes. The remaining hundred challengers can return to their places of rest and gather at the entrance of the mountain next morning." After Officer Ye finished speaking, he took the lead and left without a word.

In fact, Sect Master Mountain was not the original name of the mountain, and because the peak of the mountain was Officer Ye's residence, usually Officer Ye would stay there to give out orders, his position was extremely noble, and within the Yutang Country, the one with the highest position was not the capital Yutang City, but Sect Master Mountain.

Actually, every Subordinate Country had a Sect Master Mountain, and most of them were located in the vicinity of the capital.

"Miss Hai, it's really a pity to part ways here." Murong Cheng smiled bitterly at Hai Yunshang.

"Sigh... Forget it, what do you two want me to tell you? " Hai Yunshang smiled bitterly. Originally, the three of them had come together, but now that they had to save her, she felt a little depressed.

"It's a long way, take care." Nie Zhen laughed.

"Alright, I will bring you all back, especially your results. I'm afraid that once your results and ranking are spread out, the scene will be extremely sensational, right?" Hai Yunshang smiled at Nie Zhen, then parted ways with Nie Zhen and Murong Cheng.

The two thousand people went their separate ways, and the following matters had nothing to do with them. As for the remaining one hundred trial takers, they all entered the Yutang City in twos and threes.

"Brother Nie, what arrangements do you have for us to go to Yutang City?" Murong Cheng asked Nie Zhen.

Nie Zhen pondered for a while and said, "Nothing special, just find an inn and go to the Sect Leader Mountain tomorrow morning. Let's go together?"

Murong Cheng smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Nie might not know, but there are a few families in the Yutang City that have business with my family. This time, I have another mission. Hey, hey, hey! Brother Nie, don't walk so fast! "

How could Nie Zhen be in the mood to accompany Murong Cheng to visit his business partners? He didn't immediately shake Murong Cheng off, but left behind the words "See you tomorrow at Sect Master Mountain", and then took the lead to run into the Yutang City.

Nie Zhen had never been to Yutang City before, so he was naturally not too familiar with the city. Nie Zhen did not have any intentions of strolling around, and he planned to find an inn to stay the night.

"Dragon Phoenix Pavilion? This one's not bad, I'll take this one. " Nie Zhen arrived at the center of Yutang City and saw a luxurious tavern. Without thinking too much about it, he directly walked in.

Although this inn was clearly quite valuable, Nie Zhen was not a person who was short on money. Because, the more luxurious the inn was, the fewer customers there would be and it would be relatively quieter. This was exactly what Nie Zhen needed.

"Shopkeeper, give me a room and a few dishes." Nie Zhen found an empty table in the lobby and sat down, then said to the shopkeeper.

"Alright." The well-dressed shop owner replied plainly.

Nie Zhen looked at the shopkeeper. Most shopkeepers were very enthusiastic and just wanted to have a few more customers, but this shopkeeper had the face of a lawsuits. The shopkeeper was indeed deceitful, and although he wasn't deceiving his customers, he still put on airs.

However, Nie Zhen wasn't someone who would care too much. As long as they didn't bully him, he wouldn't fuss over things with an attitude.

Not long after, the waiter brought a few side dishes to Nie Zhen. The four bowls and plates were thrown on the table, spattering the soup everywhere.

Nie Zhen took a look, what is this dish? One fish is left with fish bones and other dishes are all leftovers. Even if your restaurant bullies its customers, it shouldn't be enough to make them eat all these, right?

Before Nie Zhen could get angry, the waiter's voice sounded in Nie Zhen's ears, "The dishes are all here, please eat slowly. Also, remember to pay a total of 100,000 silver taels..."1

Nie Zhen flew into a rage. The leftovers from these four dishes cost me a hundred thousand taels of silver?! One tael of silver is enough for a normal person for a month. It's fine if you don't make a reasonable offer, but you have to give me at least some good dishes, no?!

"Bastard!" How dare you, a waiter, bully a customer like this! Get your shopkeeper out here! " Nie Zhen dragged the waiter over and threw him out.

Luckily, Nie Zhen restrained himself and didn't use his full strength. Otherwise, the fall would have cost the waiter his life.

Nie Zhen could feel that this waiter was at most at the level of a martial arts student with the Five Sixth Level.

"Wow!" The waiter didn't even have time to react before he fell heavily onto the ground. After letting out a blood-curdling scream, he shouted, "Come! Someone is causing trouble! Manager, come quickly! Someone wants to eat an overlord's meal! "

Immediately, not many people in the inn started looking over. In the next second, the shopkeeper led several dozen of his inn's guards to surround Nie Zhen.

"What's going on?! Who dares to cause trouble at the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion! " Although the shopkeeper was right, his target was Nie Zhen.

Nie Zhen sneered, and said to the shopkeeper in a cold voice, "Shopkeeper, it's not me who is causing trouble, it's just that your waiter is going too far. Look at what he gave me, not only did he give me leftovers, he even said that the four dishes would cost a hundred thousand silvers, could it be that your Dragon Phoenix Pavilion is bullying customers like this?!"

"Oh? Is that true? " The shopkeeper looked at the waiter.

"Nothing like that!" The waiter saw the shopkeeper and acted like he had a backer. He said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, the dishes served by this little person are definitely serious. He clearly wants to eat an overbearing meal. Shopkeeper, you better not believe his lies!"

Boy, do you know that this Dragon Phoenix Pavilion was constructed with the funds of Imperial Concubine Pang? You dare to cause trouble in the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion, you clearly do not give face to Imperial Concubine Pang, you cannot avoid it, I will take you down and wait for Imperial Concubine Pang's order! The shopkeeper shouted at Nie Zhen with a cold gaze.

"What?!" Nie Zhen almost thought he misheard. Was there such a logic in this world? The shopkeeper was obviously framing Ye Xiao. He actually asked such a question and gave Ye Xiao the truth. That was simply unreasonable.

"Hey, isn't this Young Master Nie Zhen!?" What? No money to eat? Yo yo yo...... "Shopkeeper, why don't you charge this meal to my account? Don't blow the matter up, otherwise, everyone will look bad."

At this time, an eerie voice came from the crowd. Nie Zhen looked at it coldly. It was Eighth Prince, who was also a challenger.

"Sigh... Eighth Prince, it's not that I don't want to give you face, it's just a matter of money for a meal, it's really about my reputation in Dragon Phoenix Pavilion, if I don't take him down, then in the future, all sorts of cats and dogs will come to my Dragon Phoenix Pavilion and trample on me, how can I do business in the future … … " The storekeeper's reason was a matter of fact.

"Sigh... That was true... "Looks like this little Wang is being rude …" Eighth Prince shook his head and sighed.

Nie Zhen just watched the two of them singing the song. He wasn't sure if Eighth Prince would stick his head out, but since Eighth Prince did, Nie Zhen was 100% sure that this was a conspiracy against him.

If Eighth Prince was against him, Nie Zhen could explain it as the result of envious of his Trial Convention, but why would this shopkeeper follow Eighth Prince to frame him?

"Make way, make way! Isn't this Brother Nie!? " At this moment, Lee Feng's voice came out from the crowd. At the same time, he also rushed to Nie Zhen's side.

"Lee Feng?" Eighth Prince blurted out. It was obvious that he recognized Lee Feng.

"Manager Pang, I can testify that what Brother Nie said is right. This waiter has indeed gone too far. I think we should punish him severely for not taking out leftovers to entertain our customers!"

The reason why Lee Feng said this was actually to give this Manager Pang a way out. If he was wise enough, he could just step down the slope.

"Brother Nie, this shopkeeper is actually Imperial Concubine Pang's younger brother, and Eighth Prince is the son of Imperial Concubine Pang. They must have deliberately framed you …" Lee Feng said secretly to Nie Zhen.

Nie Zhen originally felt that this storekeeper's surname was also Pang, but he had already guessed that with Lee Feng's explanation, he already understood that the storekeeper was actually Eighth Prince's uncle!

With Lee Feng stepping forward, the surrounding crowd began to discuss spiritedly, as though public opinion was leaning towards Nie Zhen, after all, it was not the first time Dragon Phoenix Pavilion Shop had bullied a customer.

"Eighth Prince is narrow-minded. He must hate you for stealing away his exam victor, so he joined hands with his uncle to frame you … Imperial Concubine Pang was the Imperial Concubine that the Emperor doted upon. She was rich and powerful, and had trained a large number of experts within the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion. Speaking of which, Brother Nie, why have you come to Dragon Phoenix Pavilion? " Lee Feng quietly told Nie Zhen about the information of Dragon Phoenix Pavilion.

Nie Zhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Elder Brother Lee, I told you I found a random inn to stay at, do you believe me … …"
