Chapter 321: 321

Xue Wei's narrowed eyes flashed with a bit of coldness . "Where is your manager?" he asked, not willing to let it go .

Had it been a small amount, then it would be fair, but this waiter was clearly looking for trouble, and he was not someone easy to bully .

Xue Wei sneered when he saw the slight hesitation in the eyes of the waiter, but he quickly put up an unbending front .

Xue Wei had experienced this more than once, even back in Yan Dalu a waiter had done the same to him, and now it seemed that he was easy to bully just because he was an unfamiliar face .

Before he had the time to do anything, a figure came rus.h.i.+ng through the streets and walked straight towards the restaurant .

His clothes were made from the most outstanding cloud silk, something that came from a primordial beast .

Most people, such as Xue Wei and his friends, were wearing the cheaper version made from materials from fierce beasts .

The reason that Xue Wei had picked clothes from Fierce Beasts as opposed to Primordial Beasts was that he ended up in fights all the time . Their clothes were being ruined time and time again, so paying for the highest graded clothes was a waste of money .

Only the n.o.bles and influential families, or people who did not often engage in battles would dress in clothes made from Primordial Beasts .

When the waiter saw that the man wearing the primordial beast robes moved towards the restaurant, his eyes glistened with excitement . He was going to service this man as he was sure that his tip would be high .

The reason he had stopped Xue Wei and the others was of selfish motives . When a waiter was in charge of a group of people, he would have to focus mainly on them . They would also almost solely determine their salary depending on how much they paid in tips .

Although there was base pay, it was low compared to the essence stones one got as tips for looking after people, and this waiter was getting greedy .

As time was going past, he wanted more and more tips . Usually, he would somehow make the other waiters and waitresses serve the poorer looking experts that came to the restaurant while he took the richer ones, but this time he had no choice but to deal with Xue Wei, and it had lowered his mood, making him immensely frustrated .

Seeing that a rich man was coming towards the restaurant, he found a solution, and he looked at Xue Wei with disdain in his eyes, not even bothering to hide it .

"Stand back," he sneered . "I will deal with this esteemed customer who is coming, and you can wait for another servant to help you . I will not pursue the fact that you do not have enough essence stones for the deposit; just don't trouble me . "

Saying this, the man pushed past Xue Wei and went towards the nicely dressed man, his expression which previously had been filled with disdain was now filled with fawning .

Xue Wei snorted when he saw it and shook his head . He had instantly guessed that the servant was unaware of who he was, and even more so, he could imagine the reason for the waiter's behavior, but this did not mean he would allow him to behave so unbridled .

He was not going to do anything to the restaurant itself, but he was going to ensure that the waiter lost his job . He was even tempted to kill him to vent his anger .

Xue Wei was not a friendly person . He was quite cold and callous and did not mind killing others . He was not someone who felt that life was especially important .

Since he was willing to kill, Xue Wei had also accepted that one day, his life would likely end from being killed by someone stronger than him .

This was something he had accepted, but he was not going just to let anyone kill him easily . He loved his life and would fight for it, and he expected others to do the same . However, some were just too stupid .

The waiter who had caused problems was a mere Ordinary Knight . He did not cultivate his spiritual energy, and his strength was not very strong, even amongst the commoners on Treasure Island, he was considered amongst the weakest, yet his arrogance knew no bounds .

Xue Wei could only think of one reason for this . The restaurant he had entered was not a simple place . It had to have some outstanding backing, and this backing had caused them to become complacent and arrogant .

While Xue Wei was struggling to suppress the killing intent in his body, he turned around . His arms were on his chest, and he saw that the neatly dressed person was looking at him with admiration .

Sensing his gaze, which was focused on Xue Wei, Xue Wei could not help but frown . Did this person know of him?

"Master Xue," the person called out when he saw Xue Wei, his eyes lit up as if he had just seen his savior .

"I am Murong Jing, the leader of the Murong family," he quickly introduced himself .

"The Murong family is one of the strongest families within the entire Sea of the Enchanted . Although we cannot compare to Mister Tao Wu, we can still challenge all the normal families . It would be my honor to share a meal with you and your friends . "

He was quite nervous . He knew he was pressuring Xue Wei, and pus.h.i.+ng quite severely, but the allure of two-colored rainbow pills was something that had caused him to become quite panicked .

Xue Wei felt conflicted . He was not against striking a deal with specific families . He was not sure who to team up with yet, but he knew that he would work with some of them .

However, now was not the time for him to be discussing business . As a matter of fact, he was only here to eat with his family .

"Master Murong," Xue Wei smiled and nodded his head towards the person who was so respectful towards him .

"I am currently about to dine with my family," he said apologetically, "I am going to consider who to work with afterward . "

Murong Jing was not too depressed because of it . He had known that Xue Wei couldn't accept his sudden invitation . But this did not mean it was the end of it .

"Can I perhaps get a moment of your time later?" Murong Jing asked . "I would like to discuss the possibility of working together on concocting a two-colored rainbow pill . "

Xue Wei considered the options, and then he nodded his head . This Murong family were not humble as such, but they were not arrogant either . They were treating him with respect as they would someone of equal status .

It has to be said that this Murong Jing was an Earth Saint, someone who was not straightforward and his strength was much higher than Xue Wei, so he did not have to treat him with such respect, but because of his alchemist status, he had suddenly become a much more magnificent person .

Seeing the way that Murong Jing was treating Xue Wei, the waiter was pale and uncomfortable . He had never expected that Xue Wei would have such a distinguished personality that he had managed to cause even this high ranked expert to be respectful .

The waiter suddenly started to regret his actions . He started to fear that he had made an unsalvageable mistake, and his hands clenched tightly as they trembled .

For a moment, he started to feel guilty for his previous favoritism, and that he had been so stuck up and had caused problems to Xue Wei .

Xue Wei, on the other hand, was not willing to forgive him for his actions . He was not interested in forgiving him .

Today was supposed to be a good day . Today was supposed to be a day where he was happy and celebrating with his family, but this annoying person had destroyed the mood .

Sensing that something was not right, Murong Jing looked from the hostile eyes of Xue Wei towards the panicked waiter . He could instantly guess what was going on .

"Old Man Bai come out here!" Murong Jing suddenly yelled, his voice was infused with Qi, and it reverberated through the entire Treasure City .

Silence descended over the entire city; everyone held their breath as they wondered what had happened . Everyone close by looked at Murong Jing with trepidation .

Xue Wei raised an eyebrow in surprise, but he did not say anything and just crossed his arms over his chest .

At that moment a beam of light came shooting out from the inner regions of Treasure City, rus.h.i.+ng towards the restaurant, and when it arrived, it stopped right in front of Murong Bai .

"What's wrong Master Murong?" the person who appeared asked . He was an elderly man, he seemed to be around eighty years old, and he had a long white beard alongside long white hair . He was dressed in white robes with a cloud pattern on the fabric .

Xue Wei looked at him and instantly knew that this man was the owner of the restaurant .

"Old Man Bai, you taught outstanding waiters!" Murong Bai snorted when he looked at the man without sparing his face in the slightest .

"Not only do they want to score a lot of essence stones in tips, but they also started to coerce and threaten others into parting with large quant.i.ties of essence stones!"

Murong Bai was not sure of how many essence stones they had needed, neither did he know what exactly had happened, but he could guess the gist of it and dared speak as such .

The man referred to as Old Man Bai had his face turn dark, and he glanced a the waiter before he looked back at Murong Jing .

Old Man Bai was an Ordinary Saint . Although he was considered a dragon amongst men, he was not Murong Jing's opponent .

He knew that his waiters and waitresses could be a bit brazen from time to time, but they were good at checking everyone who they could afford to offend and who they could not .

To think that they had somehow managed to offend Murong Jing, made Old Man Bai curse beneath his breath as he shot a hate-filled glare towards the waiter .

"Master Murong, could it perhaps be a mistake?" Old Man Bai was already aware of exactly what had happened, but as the crowd was increasing, he could never admit to having silently approved of his servants suppressing the more unfortunate customers .

"Who is this young master?" Old Man Bai tried to change the subject . He looked at Xue Wei with narrowed eyes, a bit of killing intent was hidden deep within these eyes .

He could guess that it was Xue Wei who had caused Murong Jing to turn against him suddenly, and it was causing him to feel rage .

Xue Wei was able to catch this slight killing intent, and his eyes turned cold as they narrowed .

He knew he was not the opponent of Old Man Bai, but he was not willing to become a fish on the chopping block either .

"Old Man Bai, this is Young Master Xue, an outstanding two-colored Rainbow Alchemist," Murong Jing instantly introduced Xue Wei . It was not something he asked for permission for first but did because he knew that this layer of protection would be able to make people hesitate about insulting him .

Rightfully so, when Old Man Bai and the waiter heard that the man they had insulted was a two-colored Rainbow Alchemist, both of their faces paled, and their eyes widened in shock and fear .

Although his strength was not outstanding, if they considered his status, every person on Treasure Island would be at his beck and call for the sake of befriending him . If they could convince him to make two-colored rainbow pills, every major family on Treasure Island would risk their lives to fight for him .
