Chapter 368: Four Beauties of the Red Convention
Translator: Myriea_ActiasLuna Editor: Nou
Fang Ritian . Paired with the atmosphere and situation, such a name did seem rather mighty and arrogant . Even the cultivators who'd been provoked by Fang Xing earlier subconsciously swept their gaze across the area between his legs; his appearance was normal and his clothing was excessively ordinary, so the only reason he'd be so daring was because of a really powerful skill? Even the innately self-centered sea-snake beast had come specifically to speak with him, so everyone remained silent and watched from the side .
Hearing such a mighty name, the sea-snake beast smirked and also swept her gaze to the area between Fang Xing's legs . A sweet smile formed as she pointed to the upper areas in the hall and softly said, "Fang Ri—this fellow Daoist Fang, Mr . Zhu from Golden Sea Turtle Island has asked me to pass a message to you: he'd like to invite your maid over for a few drinks . If you do not mind, of course, there will be great rewards afterwards… . "
'Eh? So someone just wants to take this kid's maid?' Upon hearing this, everyone who'd been watching turned away with disinterest . There were still some who thought there might be a good show, however; with how arrogant this kid was, it'd be fun to see what he did now that someone wanted his maid!
Fang Xing checked the uppermost area and saw a fat, oily man adorned in a gold shirt raising a glass to toast him . His face held an evil smile, and the gaze he directed towards the lotus girl was practically gleaming .
The people who'd come to this Red Convention naturally didn't come with any good intentions . Some were here to wait for the Dragon King's daughter and three fairies to take their pick, but there were also some who were a little impatient and had already made advances on the Colored Glass Palace's beautiful maids . Unexpectedly, that Mr . Zhu or so of Golden Sea Turtle Island just so happened to take notice of the lotus girl and—disregarding his status—wanted to take her for himself
What Fang Xing didn't know was this Mr . Zhu had actually come with a friend, and the reason he was eligible for an invitation was only due to the convenient location of his island and his past relationships with the Colored Glass Palace . Mr . Zhu himself knew that with an appearance like his, it would be extremely unlikely for him to be the special guest for either the Dragon King's daughter or the three fairies—there was no need for him to wait for the arrival of the main characters . When he saw the lotus girl, however, he was moved by her appearance and immediately started holding evil thoughts .
Seeing that Fang Xing didn't answer immediately, the smile on the sea-snake beast turned a bit complicated and she lowered her voice to say, "Fellow Daoist Fang, technically speaking, we cannot force you to do anything . However, that Mr . Zhu of the Golden Sea Turtle Island is not someone who can be easily messed with; for him to take a liking to your maid, it is best not to be too narrow-minded . You did bring your maid into this place, after all, so it was inevitable something like this would happen!"
The sea-snake beast had given an implied threat when it seemed Fang Xing wouldn't agree, but how could she have known Fang Xing was in a state of disbelief someone would actually take a liking to this chaos magnet of a little miss? Sending her away was something he very much wanted to do, so he was surprised someone would be so unlucky as to willingly invite such a disaster upon themselves . Once his senses came back to him, he immediately grinned to the little miss and said, "Did you hear it? There's so much more delicious food up there . Do you want to go?"
The little miss had already finished up all the food at the table shared by the trio and was feeling dissatisfied . The food had been finished, yet there was no sight of any maids replacing the empty plates; did they not understand etiquette? When she looked up to where the fatty was, however, her heart was suddenly moved at the sight of three tables filled with different foods and wines . Those at the upper levels were much better off than the lower level and had maids personally looking after them, ensuring that whatever wasn't full was immediately replenished unlike down at the bottom . As soon as she noticed this, she put down the fish she was dipping in soy sauce and immediately nodded . "Go!"
Fang Xing instantly turned and replied to the sea-snake beast . "Take her!"
Such an easy and straightforward answer from Fang Xing left the sea-snake beast rather surprised . "Fellow Daoist Fang is so easygoing . Someone bring Daoist Fang another jug of wine!" After completing Mr . Zhu's request, she naturally wasn't going to make any trouble, so she just showed a calm expression before ordering someone to bring a jug of wine for Fang Xing as though she'd exchanged this single jug for the maid . In her mind, Fang Xing had readily given away his maid for the sake of courting favor with someone more powerful than him, and the contempt she held towards him grew even more . When the surrounding cultivators saw this, the gaze they had towards him became rather contemptuous as well and no one came to greet him anymore .
A grey-robed man seated at the highest point next to that of the Dragon King's daughter saw the sea-snake beast guiding the extremely beautiful little maid over . He turned towards Young Island Master Zhu with a smile before making some teasing small talk, "Hehe, congratulations, Brother Zhu . You came along here with me, yet you've managed to obtain the embrace of a beauty in advance… . "
Young Island Master Zhu also seemed surprised at how smoothly things had gone, and the pair of tiny eyes on his fat face squinted so much with glee they were nearly invisible . He waved his hand and replied, "Don't mock me, Brother Jiang . I imagine neither the Dragon King's daughter nor the three fairies would like me, and I don't want any trouble either . For me to have found such a little beauty can be considered my luck!"
The Jiang-named man replied, "With Brother Zhu's status, having a maid become yours would be a walk in the park . If you really like her, why not buy her? I, your brother, shall pay on your behalf; this can be considered my thanks for coming to the Red Convention with me!"
As the little miss walked closer, Young Island Master Zhu was able to see her appearance even more clearly, and he subconsciously felt he'd never seen anyone so beautiful before . He didn't even have the presence of mind to speak, and all he could do was watch dumbstruck as the lotus girl walked closer . Seeing this, the Jiang-named man showed a slight smile and gestured for one of his servants to speak with Fang Xing .
