Chapter 5: The Bad Luck Day of the Grand Duke
Chapter 5: The Archduke's Bad Day
As soon as the little old man turned around to leave, he saw a beautiful girl dressed in snow-white aristocratic clothes looking at him with a smile. The girl walked up to the little old man with a lotus step and asked softly:
"Grandpa, it's all here, don't you want to go to the Sixth Legion to have a look? There are a lot of people there who miss you every time! Every time they see me, they ask me about you!"
When the little old man heard the "Sixth Legion", the expression on his face suddenly became very strange, as if he couldn't vomit after eating something very disgusting. After the little old man was stopped by the girl, the white tiger stopped, shook his head and turned to look at the little old man who had been nagging beside it for several days, which had made him suffer unprecedented mental torture. The girl couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Yun Na on the back of the white tiger, facing a beautiful girl who was at the same level as herself or even surpassed herself, and her jealous character suddenly made the girl feel very threatened. The girl smiled and asked the little old man:
"Grandpa, are they your friends? Why don't you introduce me?"
The little old man introduced dejectedly:
"Boy, this is my granddaughter, Hyland Remis who is now the lord of this city. Hailan, this kid's name is Xue Yueji, the girl in front of him is called Yun Na, and the big cat is called White Tiger. ”
Hearing the little old man call himself a big cat and the white tiger glared at the little old man dissatisfied, he let out a threatening low roar, and the little old man also stared at the white tiger and learned the sound it made. Hailan frowned slightly when she saw the performance of the white tiger and his grandfather, she still knew her grandfather very well, and the average ninth-level demonic beast would behave like a good baby in front of her grandfather, but the white tiger actually threatened her grandfather unscrupulously, which proved that the white tiger was at least a holy beast. Now that Xue Yueji and Yun Na are on the back of this Tiger Clan Holy Beast, which is naturally far more arrogant than other beasts, it means that their power should definitely not be underestimated. Now she could tell that Yun Na's strength was only about the same as her, and she was in a very delicate state, which meant that the director of this Tiger Clan's holy beast must be this white-haired boy named Xue Yueji.
Born among the nobility, Hailan naturally understood what it meant to be a young master who could make the naturally arrogant Tiger Clan Holy Beast a means of transportation. Looking at the appearance of Snow Moon Scar, it is only a matter of time before he can have such strength and want to become a god-level master. If you can have a little relationship with a god-level master, even if you are already dominating the empire on the mainland, your status will be greatly improved.
Hailan gracefully walked to Xue Yueji's side, slowly raised her right hand and said to Xue Yueji:
"Hello Dear Mr. Knight, may I be allowed to ride your mount with you?"
Xue Yueji only glanced at Hailan slightly, and said to the little old man as if he hadn't seen it:
"You continue to talk to your granddaughter, I'll go to the barracks first. I'll check you out when I have time. ”
After Xue Yueji finished speaking, the white tiger turned around and continued to walk in the direction just now, Hailan's right hand was stiffly raised in the air, and his face was full of anger. The little old man smiled awkwardly and strode towards Xue Yueji, shouting as he ran:
"Boy, wait for me, don't go so fast, wait for me!"
When Xue Yueji and the others walked far away, Hailan's angry scream came from behind, and the little old man couldn't help but shudder and said to Xue Yueji:
"I said, boy, you're going to be in trouble. But didn't you already find her?"
Snow Moon Scar said lightly:
"Ahh She was half a mile behind you before you could finish your last sentence. She is behind you at a very fast speed while you are a**. I thought that with your strength, I should have already discovered her, so I didn't tell you. But you didn't even notice her presence with such a murderous aura on her body, and I guess if you were attacked by her, then you would definitely die. But what's the matter with you saying I'm in trouble? With her strength, it should be impossible to threaten me, unless she has the ability to raise her strength to your current level in a short period of time, the possibility of threatening me is really very slim. ”
The little old man looked at Xue Yueji sinily and said:
"Then you are wrong, my granddaughter has been very favored by the current Dragon Emperor Hemmanster since she was a child, she almost burned down the palace when she was seven years old when she was playing in the palace, and Hemmanster's kid didn't even let out a fart, and he also gave him the title of a fire princess, and gave her a lot of good things. Now she was seventeen and almost eighteen, and I don't know how many people admired her beauty and my wealth, and wished to marry her, and even the two sons of Heymanster were her faithful suitors. However, whoever proposed to him, the boy of Hymanst, he vetoed it, believing that the man was not qualified to be Hyland's husband. If you offend Hailan, it is equivalent to offending the kid of Hymanster and those admirers of Hailan, don't underestimate those boys who admire her, several of them have reached the level of a great swordsman, a great knight, and a great magician! Although they are still far behind you, after all, the number of people is very large. Did you think you're in big trouble?"
Xue Yueji said nonchalantly:
"Your granddaughter is now in a carriage on the road to our left, and now she has turned a corner, and it looks like she will meet again at a junction ahead, and if you don't want to be implicated, you'd better get out of the way. ”
Before the little old man could reflect it, Hailan had already stepped out of the carriage that had just stopped, and although she had basically returned to her dignified appearance, as long as she was sensitive, she could still see the forcibly suppressed anger in her eyes. Yun Na turned her head and whispered to Xue Yueji:
"Wood, what's wrong with her? ”
Xue Yueji ignored Hailan who came over and said casually:
"It's nothing, it's just a disaster. ”
Yun Na's face that was originally full of doubts instantly became cloudy, Yun Na handed over the short sword to her left hand and smashed her right hand into Xue Yueji's face, Xue Yueji didn't even dodge and let her punch her in the face. After a muffled "bang", the time of the whole street seemed to freeze in that instant. A person who even had to make way for the Grand Duke when he saw him, a person who didn't even pay attention to Miss Hailan, who was known as the Holy Ring of Flames, a person who could make the Tiger Clan's demonic beasts submit to him, she actually dared to slap him in the face so directly in public, and with her fists. After a stalemate of more than ten seconds, Yun Na suddenly threw away the short sword in her left hand, constantly rubbing her slightly red and swollen right hand, and a little tear could already be seen in her eyes. And the short sword she threw away silently ** the bluestone paved ground with the help of the power of the fall, and only the hilt of the sword was exposed. Who would have imagined that a girl who is at most equivalent to a high-level swordsman and has been holding it in her hand as a toy would be a sword sharper than an elite-level sword.
Xue Yueji sighed softly, jumped down from the white tiger's back, pulled out the short sword inserted in the ground, and handed it to Yun Na casually:
"You don't have a long memory, and your fists don't hurt me at all. ”
Yun Na casually took the short sword handed over by Xue Yueji and threw it over without thinking about it, Xue Yueji lightly clamped the short sword with the middle finger and index finger of her left hand and nodded and said:
"There's progress, but it's a little bit full, and it doesn't hurt me. ”
Yun Na muttered in a slightly choked voice:
"Why is this pervert so hard on his face, it's a piece of wood! And it's a piece of wood made of iron. ”
Xue Yueji kindly reminded:
"If it's made of iron, it's not called wood. The strongest thing about zombies is their bodies, and my current body is three and a half times harder than fine iron even if I don't have true qi protection, and it's indeed a good choice for you to hurt me with a flying sword, but it's a pity that the speed is too slow. ”
Yun Na said angrily to Xue Yueji:
"Our agreement is that you will protect me before I break through! Now I'm injured! You've broken the contract!"
Xue Yueji said lightly:
"That's your own doing, not my responsibility. ”
Yun Na stared at Xue Yueji coquettishly and shouted arrogantly:
"No! That's your responsibility! It's your responsibility! Otherwise, I'll tell everyone that you're bullying me! I don't do my duty! You're breaking the contract! Unless you stand still, I'll hit you twice!"
Xue Yueji kindly reminded Yun Na again:
"Uh, first of all, even if you are high, there is no third creature here besides me and the white tiger who can understand what you are saying, and secondly, don't you think that if you hit me again, you will still get hurt?"
Yun Na stared at the casual Xue Yueji for a long time and finally gave up, and said listlessly:
"Oh well. Now I'm hungry! Take me to eat! You won't sit down until I'm happy!"
Xue Yueji thought for a moment and said:
"The White Tiger seems to be my mount. You're riding on it because you're too poor to do anything. ”
Yun Na said unreasonably:
"Because of your breach of contract, your mount, Miss Ben, has now been requisitioned! If you have any objections, please apply to the relevant departments within three days! At the same time, Miss Ben has a veto on objections!"
Xue Yueji nodded and knew that his mount would definitely not be used by himself in a short period of time, if he forced it up, then Yun Na would definitely burst the river, and it was estimated that the Great Wall would face a major crisis of being cried down again. Xue Yueji turned his head to the little old man whose brain was already in a state of death:
"She said she was hungry, so let's go find a place to eat first, and don't forget to pay the bill later." ”
Xue Yueji patted the white tiger's head and turned around and walked towards a luxuriously decorated restaurant, and the white tiger followed behind Xue Yueji with his head held high. Only then did the little old man react and shouted at Xue Yueji's back:
"Why should I pay the bill?"
Xue Yueji turned back to the little old man and said:
"Didn't you say that you would pay for all our expenses? Do you want me to take the seventh-level magic crystal to pay for the meal? I don't think even if I paid them, they wouldn't be able to find it. ”
The little old man's face twitched, and his face changed from red to green, from green to black, from black to blue, from blue to white, as if it had become a palette. He had followed Xue Yue Scar and them for so long, so he naturally knew that Xue Yue Scar and Yun Na's meal volume was not very large, but White Tiger was a super big stomach king, and even if he didn't use a seventh-level magic crystal, it was not much worse.
Hailan, who had just recovered from the petrified state on the side, leaned over to the little old man's side and asked in a low voice:
"Grandpa, what is the identity of that Yun Na?"
But the little old man lowered his head and ignored her, and kept muttering. Hailan asked with concern:
"Grandpa, are you alright?"
The little old man looked up, tears already rolling in his eyes. The little old man sobbed and said:
"My wallet!~ My money!~ Woo woo
Hailan's already devastated nerves have been hit hard, one of the only six remaining Grand Dukes of the Tianlong Empire, one of the three major powers on the continent, and the only Grand Duke who has reached the realm of Sword Saint, is a generation higher than the Great Emperor, and even Grand Duke Belon Limis, who was called Uncle when the Great Emperor was summoned, actually cried for his wallet! Although this Grand Duke is a little old and childlike because of his age, after all, he is the Grand Duke of Peron, who once controlled the empire's hundred points and eighty points, and now still has seventeen first-class city fiefdoms, known as the giant sword and the lion! The generals in the empire with a hundred points of more than ninety-seven were all his subordinates, and even General Caimen Rees, who is now in charge of the empire's most elite super army fighting in the north, was once his personal soldier. If he asked for money, the emperor could even open the imperial treasury to him free of charge, as long as he said a word, and the car that sent money to his house every day was lined up from his house to sixty kilometers away. Now he's going to cry because of the money for a meal!
Hailan looked at the restaurant they entered and looked at the Grand Duke of Peron, who was about to cry, and opened and closed his lips for a long time before he could barely say it:
"Grandpa, the restaurant they entered is not very luxurious! it can only be considered medium here, let's go in. ”
Grand Duke Peron nodded vigorously, and reluctantly followed Hailan into the dining room. Once inside, what unfolded in front of her finally made Hyland understand why her grandfather was crying over his wallet. Yun Na and Xue Yueji were facing each other, carefully tasting their food. It was supposed to be a very normal scene, but because of the occasional white tiger, it was completely abnormal.
In the entire hall, only Xue Yueji and Yun Na were sitting, and everyone else stood neatly against the wall like sardines in a can of sardines, not daring to make a sound. The tables and chairs around the two people had been removed, and the white tiger crawled on the ground with his left front paw pressing a steaming roast suckling pig, and bit off most of it under the gaze of everyone. It was already surrounded by licked clean plates, and seven waiters were running in and out like marquees to feed it as fast as it could. In the kitchen, the chef can be heard processing their best dishes at the fastest speed they can, presumably pushing the limits of their previous cooking. Hearing the footsteps of Hailan and Grand Duke Peron coming in, Bai Hu raised his head and glanced at Grand Duke Belon, gave him a "You are here" look, lowered his head and continued to eat.
Finally, after nearly an hour and a half of busyness, a waiter ran out, carefully bypassed the white tiger and came to Xue Yueji's side, and said to Xue Yueji in fear:
"Your Excellency, your Excellency. We, we've run out of materials for today. You see"
Before he could finish speaking, the big white tiger bronze bell-like eyes stared at him, and he roared dissatisfiedly, and the entire restaurant trembled slightly in its dissatisfied roar. The waiter collapsed to the ground in fright, and there was already a sea of water under him. Xue Yueji put down the tableware in his hand and said to the white tiger flatly:
"Okay, White Tiger, people don't know that you will come today, they didn't prepare so many materials, you have to understand them. And it's okay to eat eight minutes full, and eating too full is not good for the body. ”
Xue Yueji's words made everyone feel a chill, and after eating nearly a ton of things, it was only eight points full, could it be said that the belly of the white tiger was a space ornament? Grand Duke Peron finally couldn't help crying loudly, Yun Na looked at Grand Duke Beron who was crying loudly and asked Xue Yueji with doubts:
"Do you know why he's crying?"
Xue Yueji thought for a moment and said:
"Maybe I remembered something sad. Hurry up and eat. ”
Yun Na nodded, lowered her head and continued to taste her food, sneaking a glance at the Grand Duke of Peron, who was crying more and more sadly.
