Chapter 1724: The Old Lion Devours Food Voraciously

"The food outside is truly a delicacy; no matter how much I eat, it's never enough," the Old Lion sighed.

"But… but this is very expensive, and I'm out of Spirit Stones!" the blond youth said, speechless.

This was Xiao Jin.

The blond old man was none other than Tun Wudao.

"What are you afraid of? If you don't have Spirit Stones, just don't pay. It's no big deal!"

"Dad, you have to pay Spirit Stones after eating. That's the rule!"

"What are you afraid of? When Dad eats, he never pays Spirit Stones!"

"Dad… have you forgotten what my big brother said?"

"He's not even here!"

"…" Xiao Jin felt helpless.

His net worth was quite substantial.

However, he had spent a large amount of Spirit Stones while traveling everywhere with the Old Lion previously.

Recently, the father and son had returned to Tianshen Prefecture.

Xiao Jin missed the Divine Temple and had wanted to return for a long time.

But the Old Lion didn't want to, and they happened to pass by this Wandering Black Market.

Xiao Jin mentioned that he had lived here before, and the Old Lion insisted on coming to take a look, hence this scene.

Xiao Jin had many Spirit Stones, but after spending them for over ten years, he was hitting rock bottom.

"Dad… don't choke," Xiao Jin sighed.

"Hehehe… If I wanted to, I could swallow this small city into my stomach!" the Old Lion chuckled.

Many people dining nearby snickered.

They felt the Old Lion was speaking too arrogantly.

Swallow a city into his stomach? What does he think he is?! Is his stomach a bottomless pit?!

Of course… these people were only mocking him in secret; no one dared to say it out loud.

After all, they couldn't see through the Old Lion's cultivation!

But just because they didn't speak up didn't mean the Old Lion could tolerate it!

"What were you laughing at just now?" The Old Lion raised an eyebrow, looking at the few people who had just laughed with an unfriendly expression.

"Dad, Dad… don't, don't make a scene!" Xiao Jin was speechless. Can he even do that?

"Um… Senior, we were just laughing. That doesn't bother you, does it?" A youth who had just mocked the Old Lion stood up.

Although he addressed the Old Lion as Senior, there wasn't much fear in his expression.

The reason was simple.

This was the Wandering Black Market.

In other places, if a conflict occurred, he definitely wouldn't dare to provoke the Old Lion.

But here, it was different.

The Wandering Black Market had the rules of the Wandering Black Market.

Fighting was not allowed at will!

It was said that the City Lord was an expert at the Shie Realm!

Furthermore, this time the Human Emperor ordered all races, Sects, and Families to contribute resources and Spirit Stones, but the Wandering Black Market didn't contribute anything.

This also made countless people think.

The City Lord of this Wandering Black Market was mysterious and unpredictable.

"Hehehe… It does bother me." The Old Lion sneered, releasing his aura.

"Boom!" The youth who had just spoken was directly forced to his knees by the Old Lion's aura.

This person's cultivation was not bad, having reached the fifth level of the Yuding Realm.

But how could he possibly be the Old Lion's opponent?

"Dad, Dad… don't, don't cause trouble!" Xiao Jin was anxious.

He certainly wasn't afraid of the Wandering Black Market's City Lord.

But he remembered what Xiao Fan had said.

He was worried that Xiao Fan would suppress the Old Lion again.

What would he do then?! Wouldn't that put him in a dilemma?!

"Hmph." The Old Lion snorted coldly and retracted his aura.

The youth who had just knelt down broke out in a cold sweat… Too terrifying!

What Realm was this person?! He couldn't detect his depth at all!

Could he be an expert at the Jiesheng Realm?!

The youth knew he couldn't afford to offend the Old Lion, but he wasn't willing to just leave like this.

"You, you dare to fight inside the city, just wait…" After saying that, the youth turned and ran.

He was going to report to the city guards and have the experts in the city deal with it!

The rules of the Wandering Black Market: fighting is not allowed inside the city.

This was the iron rule set by the Black Market City Lord when the city was first established.

The Old Lion had no intention of paying attention to the youth; he continued to eat various delicacies and even shouted, "Waiter, bring the wine!"

Xiao Jin: "…" Xiao Jin helplessly spread his hands.

It was good that the Old Lion wasn't killing anyone. Let him eat.

If they didn't have Spirit Stones to pay the bill, at worst they could just run; consider it a free meal!

Xiao Fan was hiding in the shadows, watching with amusement.

"A bit interesting…" Xiao Fan smiled, looking Xiao Jin up and down.

Not to mention, this lion was actually quite handsome after turning into his human form. At least better than… Alias!

Xiao Fan had no intention of appearing; he planned to watch the fun.

As it seemed now, the Old Lion had been quite well-behaved after being released.

Inside the restaurant… The Old Lion was eating with his mouth full of grease.

Xiao Jin, on the other side, had lost his appetite.

"Son, eat a little. Our clan gets stronger faster by eating more!" the Old Lion said.

"The taste… is average," the blond youth Xiao Jin shook his head.

The taste of these delicacies was still a bit lacking.

After all, compared to the Great Strength Bull Demon Clan and the Golden Winged Peng Clan… it was inferior.

The Old Lion didn't care, eating with great relish.

Having been locked up for seventy thousand years, everything tasted delicious now that he was out.

And at this moment, dozens of experts from within the city entered the restaurant!

Leading the way was the youth who had just been forced to kneel by the Old Lion.
