242: Chapter 242: The Brocade-Clad Youngster_1 242: Chapter 242: The Brocade-Clad Youngster_1 “You’ve arrived.”
As he reached the old building ruins in the school’s small grove, a middle-aged man with black hair calmly spoke to Feng Yuan.
Beside him, another middle-aged man with white hair glanced at the Dreaming Dragon Baby on Feng Yuan’s shoulder, then closed his eyes again, while the White Wolf Deity lay quietly behind them.
“Yeah, Gitalien, could I ask you for a favor?”
Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, the white-haired middle-aged man, who had been resting with his eyes shut, slowly opened his eyes and said,
“What is it?”
“The Omeilia Region is in turmoil, right?
My friend’s Spirit Beast is preparing to evolve, and some of the items needed are specialties of the Omeilia Region.
They’re currently unavailable here, so…”
Seeing the expectant look on Feng Yuan’s face, the white-haired middle-aged man glanced at him and said,
“All right, the location?”
After hearing the location Feng Yuan gave, the white-haired middle-aged man didn’t say much else.
With a wave of his hand, a colorful Gate of Light appeared out of nowhere.
Through the gate was a forest that seemed to shimmer like a night sky full of stars.
The white-haired man glanced at Agunas, who was jotting something down, hesitated, but did not speak.
After collecting the items Qi Chen needed, Feng Yuan said to the white-haired middle-aged man,
“Thank you~”
“Now that our official business is done, let’s go enjoy some delicious specialties~”
Seeing the excited look on Feng Yuan’s face, the white-haired and black-haired middle-aged men exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat complicated.
The White Wolf Deity stomped its paw, and a ring of white flames encircled everyone.
Passing through the Land of Time Tranquility, the group arrived in a past era.
Feng Yuan, now dressed in a Wolf God’s Robe without any visible action from the others, emitted a rainbow glow from his clothes, which soon transformed to match the style of those around him.
“Lorraine Tower, do you know any place around here where the food is particularly good~”
“I do not.”
“Is that so…
Well, I’ll have a look then.”
As he spoke, Feng Yuan took out an ancient book and began flipping through it against a wall.
After a while, he closed the book and said,
“Found it~ Today’s on me, don’t be shy~”
The black-haired middle-aged man chuckled and said to Feng Yuan,
“Are you planning to simply use your authority to create the currency in use now?”
“No way…
do I seem like that sort of person~”
Feng Yuan replied with a guilty conscience, scratching his head as he saw the other man smiling at him,
“It’s just one meal.
The extra money created shouldn’t matter, right?”
Seeing the black-haired middle-aged man nod, Feng Yuan quickly said,
“Well then, let’s go~ The Dreaming Dragon Baby must be hungry too, right?”
When he received no response, Feng Yuan looked at his shoulder in confusion, only to find the Dreaming Dragon Baby crouched there, stealthily glancing at the white-haired middle-aged man with its peripheral vision.
Feng Yuan touched the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s head and said with a chuckle,
“Didn’t you spend some time with him?
Are you still afraid?”
“Arrogant!”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby, dissatisfied with Feng Yuan’s words, turned its head away and whisked its tail at Feng Yuan’s face.
Grabbing the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s tail, Feng Yuan said irritably,
“If you sweep me with your tail again, I won’t be so polite.”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby glanced at Feng Yuan, turned its head away, and called out to the white-haired middle-aged man.
Feng Yuan, leading the group to the restaurant of his choice, progressed silently with his hood up, holding Xiao Ji.
Onlookers stepped aside at the sight of Feng Yuan with two Spirit Beasts perched on his shoulder and another held in his arms, with yet another following behind.
After Feng Yuan had gone some distance, they pointed in the direction he had gone, whispering among themselves.
“The flavor is really good~”
Inside the inn, Feng Yuan, while enjoying the food, expressed his happiness.
The Dreaming Dragon Baby looked at the Spirit Beast Food in front of it, and with a huff and dissatisfaction, glanced at Feng Yuan.
Seeing Xiao Ji also looking displeased, Feng Yuan said with a beaming smile,
“Hehe…
I forgot that ordinary inns in this era wouldn’t prepare food for Spirit Beasts.”
“Did this young master forget to bring their food?”
Hearing a young man’s voice from behind, Feng Yuan turned around with some puzzlement and saw a richly dressed youth standing behind him with a smile.
Scratching his head in confusion, Feng Yuan said,
“Do you need something?”
Bowing respectfully, the youth replied with a smile,
“I noticed you seem to have forgotten to bring their food.
If you don’t mind, I have some food here that I can give you.”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby first raised its head excitedly but then remembered something and settled back down onto the table, listlessly swishing its tail while staring at its Spirit Beast Food.
Feng Yuan fell silent for a moment, looked at the black-haired middle-aged man, and upon seeing him nod, Feng Yuan smiled and said,
“Thank you very much, let me think…
what I can offer you in return…”
Seeing Feng Yuan deep in thought, the young man said with a smile,
“It’s nothing valuable, so no need to be polite.”
As he spoke, the young man turned to look at a middle-aged man following behind him.
As soon as the man caught the young man’s gaze, he quickly got the hint and trotted into the inn’s kitchen.
The young man walked to the table with a smile and said,
“You don’t mind if I sit here, do you?”
Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said in a low voice,
“I wouldn’t mind, but unfortunately, Your Highness, your hopes are destined to be dashed.”
Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, the young man stiffened and forced a somewhat rigid smile,
“Could you have misunderstood something?”
Feng Yuan sighed in a low voice,
“I know you’re seeking support, but unfortunately…”
“You understand what I want to do?”
The young man looked at Feng Yuan with some surprise.
Although Feng Yuan wore a hood, the young man could tell from his voice that Feng Yuan was not old.
Feng Yuan looked toward the dark-haired middle-aged man and said,
“Lorraine Tower, what do you think?”
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Lorraine Tower said calmly,
“As long as you ensure it won’t affect the present, feel free to speak your mind.”
“Lorraine Tower…”
Hearing the peculiar name, the young man glanced at Lorraine Tower and noticed that unlike Feng Yuan, who was eagerly enjoying the food on the table, Lorraine Tower was just delicately sipping tea.
Just then, the middle-aged man who had left earlier returned with several servants dressed in servants’ attire carrying a large amount of delicately plated food.
Seeing the newly served food, Dreaming Dragon Baby drooled and glanced at Feng Yuan, then at the white-haired middle-aged man.
Noticing Dreaming Dragon Baby’s actions, Feng Yuan chuckled and said,
“If you want to eat, go ahead.
After all, it’s on someone’s tab.”
Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Dreaming Dragon Baby looked at the white-haired middle-aged man, and seeing him nod and start to eat the freshly served food, Dreaming Dragon Baby excitedly lunged towards the dish it had already eyed.
Just as Dreaming Dragon Baby curled up to float the dish into the air, it seemed to remember something and sneakily glanced at the white-haired middle-aged man.
Sheepishly letting go of the dish but still wary, it kept an eye on Xiao Ji.
However, Xiao Ji, who was contentedly eating the food Feng Yuan passed over, didn’t notice Dreaming Dragon Baby’s movement.
Najia gracefully sat down at the table, eating and occasionally offering a piece of food to Big Cat.
“It seems like everyone’s enjoying it.
Thanks so much~”
Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, the young man looked at the two middle-aged men at the table, who picked up the freshly served food from time to time and tasted it carefully.
After a while, the young man looked at Feng Yuan with a puzzled expression and asked,
“Just who exactly are you?”
“A traveler.
This is just a stop on my journey, so your goal can’t be achieved.”
Feng Yuan answered with a smile, and seeing the young man silently watching everyone, Feng Yuan said with a chuckle,
“Any regrets?”
Shaking his head with a smile, the young man said,
“Regrets?
Why would I?
This food isn’t that big of a deal.”
“Then I won’t compensate you~”
With his hands on the table, the young man said in a low voice,
“Could you tell me what the world outside of Great Li is like?”
Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said somewhat helplessly,
“The world outside of Great Li?
I haven’t been there either…”
Glancing at Feng Yuan, the young man sighed and said,
“You can’t tell me, can you…”
“It’s not that I can’t tell you, it’s just that I haven’t been, so how can I say…”
Seeing the young man looking somewhat disappointed, Feng Yuan looked at the white-haired middle-aged man and said,
“How about…
we take him outside to have a look?”
The white-haired middle-aged man looked at Lorraine Tower and asked,
“What do you think?”
“A gag order.
If he can accept that, then it’s possible.”
