Chapter 2557: Makes Sense

Wang Teng followed closely behind with a cheerful grin; having finally seen Xiao Qing, he had to stay by her side the entire time.

He could not let himself disappear from Xiao Qing's sight; he had to be a competent and qualified simp!

Upon reaching the gates of Jiuzhou, Red Spirit Dragon wore an embarrassed expression…

Beside him, Yun Che, Yun Lou, and Ox Ghost King also had very ugly expressions, feeling that they had been set up by Red Spirit Dragon.

This guy was Wang Teng; if he had been a direct descendant of some other major power, a fight would have been fine.

But this simp Wang Teng was different… Given his relationship with Xiao Qing, if they truly ended up together in the future, what would they do if he made things difficult for them?

Arriving at the gate, Wang Teng did not go in immediately. Instead, he stopped and glanced at Red Spirit Dragon, saying indifferently, "Little bird, keep blocking me if you dare…"

"I… I wouldn't dare." Red Spirit Dragon's face turned livid.

Dare to block him? Unless he was crazy!

"Hmph… Qing'er, wait for me!" Wang Teng had no time to pay attention to Red Spirit Dragon.

He had been thinking of Xiao Qing day and night during the time they hadn't met. Now that he had finally seen the Xiao Qing he was so obsessed with, how could he have the heart to deal with Red Spirit Dragon?

"Sigh…" After Wang Teng left, Red Spirit Dragon heaved a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that Wang Teng hadn't continued to mock him; otherwise, he would have completely lost face.

"Red Spirit Dragon, you pit-digging idiot!" Yun Lou said, fuming with rage.

"Exactly, Red Spirit Dragon, are you sick in the head?" Ox Ghost King scolded.

"…"

"I… I didn't know either." Red Spirit Dragon's expression was ugly. If he had known that person was Wang Teng, how could he have offended him?

"Forget it, let's continue guarding," Jian Wuyou said, returning and speaking in a deep voice.

The fight with Wang Teng just now had been very beneficial to Jian Wuyou, and he now had a clear understanding of top-tier Prodigies from the Hongtian Star Domain.

"Hmph, little bird, guard the door well!" Ox Ghost King snorted coldly, turned around, and returned to the Jiuzhou Inner Domain, adopting the nickname for Red Spirit Dragon that Wang Teng had used.

"That's right, little bird, guard the door well." Yun Lou also turned and left.

Red Spirit Dragon: "…"

"I… I was once the number one Prodigy on the Jiuzhou prodigy ranking! How dare you address me like that!" Red Spirit Dragon was furious, feeling looked down upon.

"Little bird… although Wang Teng looks stupid, he is quite good at giving nicknames." Jian Wuyou rubbed his chin, nodded, and also returned to the Jiuzhou Inner Domain.

Hearing that even Jian Wuyou said so, Red Spirit Dragon was so angry that smoke was coming out of his seven orifices.

"Just you wait, just you wait…" Red Spirit Dragon gritted his teeth. Even if he couldn't beat Wang Teng, he could still use his own brains to play dirty later.

Red Spirit Dragon planned to fabricate some embarrassing stories about Wang Teng later and spread them around; for instance… "simp" was a very good term to use!

He even thought of the content, planning to concoct some stories to ruin Wang Teng's reputation.

…

Time passed. Several major powers that had feuds with Xiao Fan, such as the Ancient Barbarian Clan, Dragon Palace Hall, and Sword Sect, now had their Old Ancestors visiting one after another, bringing precious gifts.

"This… why are the people from the Ancient Barbarian Clan and Dragon Palace Hall here?"

"No way, they have a grudge against Xiao Fan. Aren't they afraid of being wiped out by Xiao Fan if they come here?"

"Who knows…"

"You idiot, they must want to take this opportunity to ease their relationship with Xiao Fan. If they don't show some gesture now, if Xiao Fan comes knocking on their doors later… they'll just…"

"Right, right, right… that makes sense!"

"…"

When the Old Ancestors of the Ancient Barbarian Clan, Dragon Palace Hall, and Sword Sect arrived outside Jiuzhou, they all had ugly expressions, but they had to force smiles.

Just as the outsiders had guessed, they had to take this opportunity to ease their relationship with Xiao Fan…

The relationship between both sides could not continue to deteriorate.

They were all worried about following in the footsteps of the Witch God Clan and the Weiyang Clan. If Xiao Fan really came to settle scores with them later, they would truly be finished.

Therefore, they all planned to take this opportunity to send precious gifts to ease their relationship with Xiao Fan.

Even bowing down and submitting would be fine, as long as they could preserve their race's survival and not be wiped out like the Witch God Clan and the Weiyang Clan.

However, when they arrived outside Jiuzhou, not a single person came to receive them.

The Old Ancestors of the Ancient Barbarian Clan, Dragon Palace Hall, and Sword Sect looked at each other, went to the Jiuzhou guard post, and stated their names.

"This young friend, please report… the Ancient Barbarian Clan has come to request an audience."

"Young friend, please report, the Dragon Palace Hall has come to request an audience."

"The Sword Sect requests an audience."

"…"

Red Spirit Dragon looked at the crowd and felt a strong, terrifying aura emanating from them.

Furthermore, these people who had announced their affiliations were all major powers that had grudges against Xiao Fan…

Immediately, Red Spirit Dragon understood.

"Wait honestly, one by one. Are you blind?" Red Spirit Dragon said with an unfriendly expression, snorting coldly.
