Destiny Beast Taming
Chapter 160 You have no face either!
Chapter 160 You have no face either!
At this moment, Tao Niannian had already come out of the kitchen with the brewed tea.
Before Tao Niannian could even place the brewed tea on the table, a great deal of noise came from outside the shop.
Immediately afterwards, several members of the city patrol team walked in, accompanied by the man whose arm had just been torn off by Hong Ji.
"Captain Wang, they're the ones who tore my hand off. You have to stand up for me."
The middle-aged man was pale, but his severed arm had stopped bleeding, indicating that he had received treatment before arriving.
Wang Hongwu looked at Zhong Yi, Wen Tao, Cui Heng, and the others, and they were in a bad mood.
The Dragon Leap Tournament is currently underway, attracting many outsiders to Dragon Cliff City.
Those who dare to come to Tao En's store now are basically outsiders.
What annoyed Wang Hongwu wasn't Zhong Yi, Wen Tao, or other outsiders from other cities in the New Xia Federation, but rather these people who kept causing trouble for Tao En.
Ironically, the people who came to cause trouble for Tao En all ended up coming to him for help when they encountered problems.
He was just the captain of a patrol team, and he didn't want to offend Cao Xing'an, nor did he want to offend Tao En.
The man who came looking for him invoked the banner of the Dragon Sword Mercenaries.
The Dragon Sword Mercenaries are an organization that helps adventurers obtain dungeon points, but they are not even ranked among the major powers in Dragon Cliff City!
However, the Dragon Sword Mercenaries were a force personally cultivated by a bigwig in the Dragon Shock Merchant Guild.
Master Cao Xing'an is also the chief creator of the Jinglong Chamber of Commerce, which makes Wang Hongwu have to pay attention to him.
Tao En, once a top-tier creator of the Five Fingers, can no longer even see clearly.
Yet they still get bothered by those petty people, which is truly pitiful.
If people from other cities saw this and it got out, it would be a disgrace to Longya City.
"What happened?"
"Disputes should not occur without cause within the city limits. Why did you attack him?"
Wen Tao was about to speak when he saw Zhong Yi stand up first.
"As a leader of the Longya City Guard, Captain Wang, I believe you will handle matters fairly and justly."
"I'd like you to ask him first why he vandalized Master Tow's shop?"
Wang Hongwu raised his hand and rubbed his temples. A dispute had just occurred in Master Tao En's shop a couple of days ago.
People who come to cause trouble always find various reasons, such as poor service attitude, inability to communicate in a timely manner, or neglect of customers.
Wang Hongwu knew very well why these forces were causing trouble for Tao En.
Now that someone has brought this up, Wang Hongwu turned to look at the middle-aged man with the severed arm.
Just as she was about to signal the middle-aged man to explain, she saw him glare angrily at Zhong Yi and Hong Ji and shout loudly.
"I didn't vandalize the shop, I just came to buy things!"
"This store has a problem with its service. I only said a few words, when did I smash up the store?"
Upon hearing the middle-aged man's vehement denial of causing trouble in the store, Tao Niannian trembled with anger as she spoke.
"You just broke a lot of things, you..."
Before Tao Niannian could finish speaking, she was interrupted sharply by the middle-aged man.
"I broke things. Is anything in the shop broken now?"
"Let me tell you, don't make baseless accusations based on your age."
"He only has a grandfather, but no education. He just spouts nonsense."
The middle-aged man's original intention was to cause trouble in Tao En in order to curry favor with a manager in the Jinglong Chamber of Commerce.
As a result, things didn't escalate, but my hand was broken!
The anger in his heart made the middle-aged man speak without any restraint.
Although he couldn't get along with Master Cao Xing'an, Master Cao Xing'an had no reason not to protect anyone who came to cause trouble for Tao En.
Otherwise, who among the subordinates would bother to cause trouble for Tao En because of Master Cao?
Moreover, the Dragon Sword Mercenary Corps, to which he belonged, was itself related to the Shocking Dragon Merchant Guild.
The man's words immediately filled Tao Niannian's eyes with tears, made Tao En pant heavily with anger, and also made Zhong Yi's brows furrow tightly.
"Oh? You didn't cause any trouble in the store? Then I must have seen wrong."
"But why did you take advantage of her?"
Following the direction Zhong Yi pointed, Wang Hongwu saw Hong Ji curiously observing the beasts on display and for sale in the shop.
Wang Hongwu could only see the profile of the woman in the red dress with black hair, but even that profile was stunning.
He looks at least 80% like the boy who just spoke.
Are these two siblings?
The girl's expression was lively, and she gave off a completely different feeling from a substitute doll who was a household beast.
Even though Zhong Yi and Hong Ji look alike, Wang Hongwu never imagined that Hong Ji was not a person, but a substitute doll whose bloodline had evolved.
Zhong Yi originally wanted to reason with this middle-aged man.
But since this middle-aged man was being unreasonable and talking nonsense, Zhongyi didn't intend to handle the matter in the usual way anymore.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man jumped up and shouted, "How did I take advantage of her?"
"I was busy smashing things in the shop and didn't even notice anyone coming in."
"You came in directly..."
As the middle-aged man was speaking, Wang Hongwu firmly locked his shoulders.
"Didn't you say before that you weren't causing trouble?"
"Why are they all smashing things so enthusiastically!"
At this moment, Wang Hongwu's headache worsened; this man from the Dragon Sword mercenary group was difficult to deal with.
But this person is so stupid that he was provoked into revealing the truth.
Just as Wang Hongwu was pondering how to resolve the situation in a way that would not negatively impact Tao En while also satisfying the Dragon Sword mercenary,
Wang Hongwu, who was deep in thought, heard Zhong Yi speak in a cold voice.
"It's not so easy to take advantage of my Order Beast status."
"Brother Tao, we're new to Longya City and don't know anyone here, so we don't want to cause trouble."
"Contact the Destiny Society and have one of their deacons resolve this!"
Zhong Yi's words startled both Wang Hongwu and the man who had just caused trouble.
What?
Order Beast!?
The Heavenly Mandate Academy!?
The young man before them was actually a chosen one from another mighty city!
Upon hearing that the Destiny Society was going to get involved, Wang Hongwu felt relieved.
But the middle-aged man with the severed hand broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead and back in an instant.
"What kind of crime would it be to harass or take advantage of an Order Beast?"
"This is probably the first case of its kind in the entire history of the New Xia Federation."
After all, the Order Beasts are the most numerous, which are humanoid beings like the Resurrected Celestial.
Order beasts like Hong Ji, who are indistinguishable from humans, have never appeared before.
However, taking advantage of the Order Beast is tantamount to molesting a Chosen One.
With an organization like the Destiny Society, which defends the dignity of those destined for heaven, getting involved, the consequences are simply beyond what they can bear.
Even the Dragon Sword mercenaries, to which he belonged, couldn't afford it!
This matter will inevitably reach the ears of the Jinglong Chamber of Commerce, and even Cao Xing'an himself.
Wen Tao and Cui Heng had long disliked the middle-aged man who had just caused trouble!
It was Zhong Yi who took the initiative to step forward and try to resolve the matter, which is why Wen Tao and Cui Heng remained silent.
Upon hearing Zhong Yi say that he wanted to seek help from the Destiny Society, Wen Tao smiled and took out his phone to call the Deacon of the Destiny Society who had just received him.
The deacon assured him that he would arrive at the scene within ten minutes.
Wen Tao was always worried that Zhong Yi was too honest and upright, and would be bullied when she went out.
Wen Tao can now be completely relieved!
Zhong Yiyuan is not as innocent and harmless as he seems; he is actually a cunning and scheming person.
Before the council members of the Destiny Society arrived, the female Destiny Holder whom they had just met at the Destiny Society unexpectedly appeared in the shop.
When the patrol team arrived, Tao En, not wanting to prematurely reveal his involvement with Zhong Yimo, prepared to leave Longya City.
They still pretended not to see clearly.
After entering, Ju Jiashu glanced around the shop.
He glanced at the middle-aged man whose arm had been torn off, then turned to look at Wen Tao.
"It's just a small matter, Tao. There's no need to make such a big deal out of it."
"Give me some face, let's just let this go."
Contrary to Ju Jiashu's expectations, Wen Tao did not immediately agree to her request.
Instead, he spoke to Ju Jiashu in a somewhat serious tone.
"He violated Xiaoyi's Order Beast, how can I just let this go?"
"It only counts if Xiaoyi stops pursuing the matter."
Wen Tao never had the habit of changing his mobile phone. While others were using six-fold mobile phones, Wen Tao was still using a four-fold mobile phone.
This caused some sound leakage on Wen Tao's phone, and Wen Tao overheard some of what Xingye said to Zhongyi on the phone.
In fact, Wen Tao had already regarded Zhong Yi as the future of Star City.
A city needs a brilliant leader to achieve better development.
The current leader of Starlight City is Star Night. After so many years, Starlight City has finally produced a young man who is bright enough.
Wen Tao's words made Ju Jiashu's already furrowed brows darken even further.
In total, Wen Tao has embarrassed me twice!
Even if Ju Jiashu really liked Wen Tao, she was still very unhappy.
In Ju Jiashu's heart, she was different from the other chosen ones of her generation.
Because he has an uncle who is a peak-level creator of the Five Fingers, the other chosen ones in Dragon Cliff City, even the veteran chosen ones, will give him face.
But with Wen Tao, he never received even the slightest preferential treatment.
Wen Tao's eyes were always fixed on Lin Zhuo.
Ju Jiashu's investigation revealed that Lin Zhuo did not have any special background.
Ju Jiashu forced herself to be patient and spoke to Zhong Yi.
"You said he made inappropriate advances towards your Order Beast, and regardless of whether that's true or not, it's still his fault."
"My uncle is currently the only Five-Finger Peak Creation Master in Dragon Cliff City, and he will be hosting a banquet tonight."
"As compensation, I can invite you and give you priority in choosing the dragon-type beasts to present to the guests at the banquet."
Ju Jiashu didn't take Zhong Yi seriously, after all, she had checked the files of the Destiny Society and knew that Zhong Yi was only an S-level combat-type Destiny user.
Such chosen ones are rare, appearing only once or twice every ten years in every great city.
However, as fellow chosen ones, Ju Jiashu has always looked down on those new generation chosen ones who do not have family support because of her family background.
When facing these new generation of chosen ones from Longya City, apart from the chosen ones from the Long family.
As for the other newly selected chosen ones, Ju Jiashu didn't even bother to acknowledge them.
In Ju Jiashu's view, she had already revealed her uncle's name.
It's impossible for someone as young as Zhong to offend him again.
Ju Jiashu heard the boy's clear voice in her ear.
"I have no shortage of dragon-type beasts to tame, and this matter won't be left so easily."
"Besides, I wasn't being aggressive; I just let the Destiny Academy handle this matter."
"Do you really think it would be bad to let the deacons of the Destiny Society handle this matter?"
"We came to Yacheng to participate in the Leap Festival, not to attend a banquet hosted by anyone."
"Surely tonight's banquet won't be even more spectacular than Yue's!"
Zhong Yi could tell from Wen Tao's previous attitude towards Ju Jiashu that Wen Tao didn't like Ju Jiashu.
On the way here, Wen Tao also mentioned Ju Jiashu, who is Cao Xing'an's niece.
When Ju Jiashu visited Xingmang City before, Wen Tao and Lin Zhuo received her out of goodwill.
Ju Jiashu caused quite a stir in Star City over a trivial matter, which was only resolved with the intervention of the Destiny Society.
Under these circumstances, Zhong Yi naturally wouldn't give Ju Jiashu any face!
Moreover, Zhong Yi has already brought Tao En under his command, and the feud between Tao En and Cao Xing'an has reached an irreconcilable point.
From now on, Zhong Yi and Cao Xing'an can only be enemies.
There's no need to worry about Cao Xing'an's feelings anymore.
Ju Jiashu's face was frighteningly dark, and her fists were clenched tightly.
Unexpectedly, Wen Tao didn't give him any face, and this young new generation chosen one didn't give him any face either!
Could it be because of Tao En?
Ju Jiashu looked sharply at Tao En, only to see Tao En looking down at Tao Niannian standing beside her.
Tao Niannian's face was filled with fear and worry.
After staring at Ju Jiashu for a while, he finally looked away, just like he had done at the Destiny Academy.
He left without looking back, causing a huge embarrassment.
Wang Hongwu, the patrol captain, usually had no opportunity to come into contact with the Chosen Ones. After Zhong Yi introduced himself, he was somewhat unsure about Zhong Yi's identity.
I was afraid that I would be fooled by Zhongyi and make a big joke of myself.
It was only after Ju Jiashu arrived that it was confirmed that what Zhong Yi said was true.
Ju Jiashu has a very high reputation in Longya City, but not all of that reputation is good.
Another part is related to Ju Jiashu's background and Pang Li's behavior.
Now that I've witnessed Ju Jiashu being humiliated, will there be any talk about it later?
No sooner had Ju Jiashu left than the beautiful deacon from the Destiny Society of Longya City arrived.
He first offered his condolences to Zhong Yi and Wen Tao, and then took Wang Hongwu and the frightened middle-aged man to the Destiny Society.
The deacon will provide further details regarding the handling of the matter to both Wen Tao and Zhong Yi.
As night deepened, a large number of guests gathered at the Cao family's mansion in the central urban area of Longya City.
However, Cao Xing'an's face was not as beaming as usual tonight.
A thick gloom settled over his smiling face, and Cao Xing'an left the banquet early, before it was even over.
