Chapter 627: You're just cheating me! Sooner or later, I'm going to give you...
"Hey, you look unfamiliar, are you Jiang Xia Jiang Ziheng?"
On the battlefield where the Three Saints of the West Sea were fighting, Lao Jiang was watching a show and smoking, when suddenly a laughing voice appeared in his ears, which scared him.
Following the sound, he saw the powerful immortal chef Pleiades waving at him on the northern sea.
That posture looked just like a waiter trying to attract customers.
This Pleiades is not particular either.
A dignified immortal, but he makes himself look like a waiter. Maybe it's because the powerful are used to playing around in the world and no longer care about what others think. His mentality is quite carefree.
But what puzzled Old Jiang was that he had no connection with Taotielou, the number one fairy chef in the world. Why would this Pleiades take the initiative to greet him?
An ominous feeling rose in Boss Jiang's heart.
"I am Jiang Xia, what do you want me to do?"
Old Jiang thought for a moment, looked at the beast's tooth that was tightly clenched in his hand to control the Zouwu chariot, and obediently responded with his spiritual thoughts.
The next moment, the voice of the Pleiades, which still contained a hint of laughter, turned cold. He stroked the domineering-looking bone-chopping kitchen knife in his hand and said to Lao Jiang very impolitely:
"It's you."
"More than a year ago, a fellow Taoist who called himself 'Crow' had a feast at my Taotie Tower. He ordered whatever was delicious and expensive, and even took away several jars of the best immortal wine in the tower.
Before leaving, he got drunk and beat up the cook, saying that he had specifically asked you to pay the bill for him.
This chef has been waiting for you to come to Xihai, but I didn’t see you coming, so I thought you were going to default on your debt.
It's good that it's coming now.
come over!
Let’s calculate the cost of the meal.”
"!!!"
When Lao Jiang heard this, he was completely dumbfounded. He really didn't expect that such a terrible thing would be waiting for him during this trip to Xihai. It was really an unexpected "surprise".
Could it be that when we met last time a long time ago, Mr. Crow was urging me to come to the West Sea. In addition to looking for the inheritance of the Mohist School, he also wanted me to help him pay for the meal...
How could this person be so shameless?
The mighty Kuhai is addicted to bullying a small cultivator like me.
"Um, Immortal Venerable..."
Lao Jiang hesitated for a moment and spoke in a gentle voice, but he was interrupted by Mao Xing just as he started. The latter snorted and wiped the blade of the kitchen knife with his fingers from a distance.
He also used a secret method to let Lao Jiang see this action clearly, and then said in a threatening tone:
"Don't call me Immortal Venerable, I'm just a cook. Taotie Tower is a small business. If everyone is like him and relies on their strength to eat and dine for free, will I still be able to do this business?
You, the young monk, stop talking nonsense and pay the meal bill quickly.
I’m still busy.”
"That was Mr. Crow's meal. I, Jiang Xia, didn't even eat a single bite. Why should I ask me for money? He got the meal by force, so why should I pay you?"
Hearing Mao Xing being so rude, Lao Jiang became furious. This trip to the West Sea was not going well to begin with, and Boss Jiang was still feeling angry.
He countered:
"It's that shameless fellow who owes you money, not me. You can't beat him, and you can't find him, so you come to bully me? Do you really think I'm a clay man with no temper at all?"
"Oh, the Mo family really all have bad tempers."
After being scolded by Lao Jiang, Mao Xing was not angry. Instead, he changed his tone to a sarcastic one and said:
"The guy who ate the free meal made it clear at the beginning. It's not that he didn't want to pay, but he really had no money. He wanted to use a good spiritual treasure as collateral, but what use would a spiritual treasure have for me, a cook?
He told me that he had done you a favor and you were rich, so he asked me to ask you for money for the meal. Here, the IOU is here.
I heard that the Mo family is very particular about rules and regulations, and everything must have rules.
Even if this matter were to spread to Tongtian Mountain, I would still be in the right.
If you don't pay the money, I will bring my apprentices to the gate of your Mo Shuang Mountain and hold up banners to ask for money for meals.
As long as you, the great Mo Shuangshan, can afford to lose that person, it doesn't matter to us cooks."
"You, you, you, you... How can you be so disrespectful as a dignified Immortal Lord!"
Old Jiang was both angry and amused by these words. He really couldn't imagine that this greasy immortal actually had such a tough personality, but when he started to act like a spoiled brat, he really couldn't do anything about it.
Then he sighed and said:
"Okay, now that you've said this, Old Jiang is unlucky today. How much did he spend at your place? Isn't it okay for me to pay?"
" money?"
Pleiades laughed, rubbed his fat belly, and replied with his mind:
"You're telling me that I, the second weakest chef in the world, have come all the way here, risking being beaten to death by the three saints, just to ask you for some immortal money?
Mr. Crow boasted to me about it when he had a free meal that day.
He said he had traveled around the stars, eaten all kinds of rare delicacies, and boasted about it very well. When he was half drunk, he told me that he wanted to find some exotic ingredients from outside the domain for me to help me improve my cooking skills.
I don't want any money either. Since Mr. Crow has run away, the money he promised can be used to pay for the meal. You can go and find it.
He told me that you also have a secret method that can find many rare ingredients.
I won’t hide it from you.
This matter is related to my practice, but I can't be careless. Just find me some good things and I'll settle the debt. How about that? I don't think this will be difficult for you."
"You might as well ask for money."
Lao Jiang complained:
"I'm so busy that I don't have time to find ingredients for you. How about this, I'll help you find him and you can talk to him yourself?"
"No, no."
Subaru shook his head and said frankly:
"I can't beat him. He's very fierce in a fight. If I call him over, he'll beat me up again. But I can hold you down, so you should do it. You see, I'm also a bitter man.
It won't do you any harm to have a good relationship with me, right?"
"you……"
When Lao Jiang heard these words that sounded like cheating, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
He immediately asked back:
"Did Mr. Crow tell you something, which made you come here to make a scene and want to get into trouble with me?"
"clever!"
Mao Xing gave a thumbs up, waved to Lao Jiang, and stopped pretending, saying bluntly:
"That person said that the great calamity of the Bitter Wood Realm is approaching, and all living beings will suffer, and there will be no escape from the sea of suffering. Only by finding the person who will be spared from the calamity can one save his life and preserve the inheritance.
I specifically got him drunk and tried to get him to talk, and only then did I learn your name from him.
To be honest, I didn't believe this nonsense at first, but look at the corrupt things happening in the West Sea today, it really scared a timid cook like me.
I already believed 70% of what that weirdo said about the catastrophe. Since he said you can save me, I will sacrifice my dignity and establish a karmic relationship with you, just like a cunning rabbit has three burrows, leaving myself a way out."
"Oh, he thinks highly of me."
Boss Jiang shook his head and replied to Pleiades:
“But the Immortal Venerable’s straightforward temper makes people dislike him. I will accept this cause and effect. If I can really save him in the future, I will also help the Immortal Venerable.
Can we just leave the food matter alone?"
"No, no."
Subaru chuckled, changed his tone, looked at the battle between the three saints in front of him, and said in a long tone:
"Why do you think I came here today? I came here specially to ask Master Xu to calculate. I will definitely be able to get the best ingredients here today.
What's the point of this fake internal fighting among the three saints ? They don't even show their real moves when fighting, it's obvious that they are fighting for others to see. They just came here to put on a show and save Yandang Pond from this disaster.
I didn't come here for the fun.
I am a common man, I won't do anything that is not beneficial.
Look, they’re coming out.”
"Hmm? Who?"
Jiang Xia suddenly turned around and looked at the thousand-mile sea area where the three saints were fighting in front of him. This place was engulfed in the violent five elements spiritual energy, the sea was burning, and the water was covering the earth.
The fire is not fire, the water is not water, just like a state of chaos.
All kinds of auras were blocked. Not only was Lao Jiang unable to sense them, even the four immortals who were guarding the battlefield around him would be somewhat slowed in their perception in such a chaotic situation.
As Pleiades finished his words, three strange dragons rushed out from the surging water and fire.
Each of them is several hundred feet long and has the shape of a real dragon, but is wrapped in dark demonic energy, like a black cloud covering the body, staining the entire body with ink-like dirt, and even on the body, there are all kinds of abnormalities.
Either strange pupils appeared on the dragon's body, or a few more claws grew, or strange tumors grew from the neck, making it look like a two-headed dragon.
The three-headed demon dragon rushed out of the sea, shaking its head and tail, bringing with it a strong demonic energy, turning the world upside down, and causing rolling thunder, which instantly separated the three fighting saints.
This can no longer be called a demon dragon.
Look at their huge dragon eyes with bulging red eyes. Wherever they go, they bring evil spirits and pollution, turning the sea water black. They are like the source of evil thoughts, polluting wherever they go.
This can be called a magic dragon!
The most terrible thing is that these three demon dragons have high cultivation levels. Just by looking at one of them flying out and sweeping with its dragon tail, it was able to force back the hundred-foot-tall giant incarnation of the Great God Changshan. It was clear that this demon dragon was definitely the Demon Saint of the Sea of Bitterness.
I just don't know whether they were originally a sea of suffering, or whether they were suppressed in the Sin Abyss for five hundred years and then contaminated by evil spirits before they were able to break through and advance?
"Look, aren't the best ingredients here? Master Xu's divination is indeed accurate. It's worth the Bailing birthday banquet I prepared for him."
Pleiades laughed loudly, picked up a kitchen knife and rushed towards the dragon, and before leaving, he did not forget to remind:
"Young friend Jiang Xia, hurry up and go. This place has become a mess. There will be a fierce battle here today. This is different from the fight between the three saints just now. This is a matter of life and death.
Don't just stand here and watch the fun."
"boom"
As soon as he finished this reminder, the dragon crashed into the black and white Yin-Yang fish magic set up by the Immortal Master Mingyue, and the demonic energy smashed the formation into pieces.
On the other side, the cold-blooded beast god also held a magic sword in his hand. The big villain Tieshan's eyes were shining as he chased the magic dragon that had grown two heads and chopped it.
The magic sword in his hand was blood red, and it looked very similar to the blood killing magic that Liu Hui had used at the beginning. With one slash, the dragon's skin and flesh would be torn apart.
But seeing the ecstasy on Tieshan's face, he knew that the Beast God was up to some bad intentions again.
"Bang"
A blade of purple-black lightning fell from the sky and hit the Lingbao Zouwu chariot, causing the ink talismans on the chariot to roll and making everyone in the car dizzy. At the same time, demonic energy spread wildly around through the body of the demon dragon, making the whole sky and earth dark.
It was obvious that a demon dragon had unleashed its powerful killing power.
"You can't stay here, let's go!"
Sanbao tried his best to hold up the spirit flag in his hand, turning it into a faint light that illuminated the surroundings, but he was suddenly caught off guard by a huge dragon claw that grabbed at him from the dark curtain of light in front of him.
The moment it collided with the spiritual flag in Sanbao's hand, the magic weapon was completely shattered.
Sanbao's face turned pale and blood spurted out of his mouth.
In the carriage, Hanhan roared angrily, and his nuclear explosion fist was instantly raised to the extreme. With the extremely strong and masculine killing force, he punched at the evil dragon claw that was grabbing in front of him.
As the light and shadows shattered, Lao Jiang activated the beast fang in his hand, and relying on the flash of light that Hanhan risked his life to shoot, he moved the magic car with everyone else, thousands of miles away from the black sky in an instant.
Only then did they barely escape the killing power of the evil dragon. Looking back at the chaotic sea, they saw the dark sky was like an upside-down eggshell, covering an area of nearly ten thousand miles in radius.
Various colored lights could be seen flying in the air, and it was obvious that the immortals were already fighting the evil dragon there.
At this point, Lao Jiang and his group finally understood.
"The Immortal Alliance invited the Immortal Lords here not to suppress the internal fighting among the Three Saints, but for the Dragon Palace Demon Dragon that might break out of the Sin Abyss. But here, the demons are all dancing wildly.
I dare not even think about the chaos that is going on in Sin Abyss."
After being hit by the magic dragon, Sanbao was exhausted. He sat cross-legged in the Lingbao Cart, glanced at Jiang Xia, and said softly:
"If you want to go there, you need to make plans first. Don't be careless. Find a place to rest and wait for fellow Taoists Shi Yan and Liu Chu to join you. I have something to tell you all."
Just as Lao Jiang was about to speak, he heard Sanbao whisper:
"Jiang, you have always wanted to know the secrets in my heart, haven't you? The battle in the bitter sea has attracted the attention of the world. I will take advantage of this chaotic situation to tell ."
"Now is not the time to talk about this."
Senior Sister Chenyu looked at the sky-covering curtain in the distance with some eagerness, and clenched her fists unwillingly. After hearing what Sanbao said, she turned back and responded impatiently:
"The secret can be told at any time. Now we have things to do. The life or death of the leader is uncertain..."
"No, you trust us."
Before Sanbao spoke, Niu Hanhan, who was panting beside Lao Jiang, looked up and said in a deep voice to everyone in the carriage:
"This matter is much more important than the life or death of your head, Mo Jun."
