Greedy Monk

“How many things have you bought already, and you still want to buy more? You've walked through the entire street, and with all these things you've bought, will you even be able to use them all?”

Xiao Feng could still understand buying some food.

But Taowu also picked out some shiny things and was about to stick them directly into his hair.

If Xiao Feng hadn't stopped him in time, he didn't know what kind of attention-grabbing mess Taowu would look like right now!

Xiao Feng suddenly regretted agreeing to bring Taowu to the town near the Ming Cult today.

“You really are something. Isn't it just asking you to buy me a few things? I see that you Human Race all like to stick shiny things in your hair, right? Why can't I? I think they look very good!” Taowu said righteously.

“When we go back, you can mess with yourself however you want, but can you please not embarrass me outside? You are one of the Four Great Vicious Beasts, after all. Can't you feel that the way the people around you are looking at you is strange?” Xiao Feng said, on the verge of a breakdown.

Only then did Taowu seem to react, looking around, and indeed, he saw some very strange looks.

He reluctantly listened to Xiao Feng and put all those things into his Storage Pouch.

Afterward, Taowu followed Xiao Feng to a restaurant and ordered a table full of food.

Considering Taowu's huge appetite, Xiao Feng ordered enough food to feed ten people, so the Shop Assistant specifically asked if ordering so much food would be wasteful.

After receiving Xiao Feng's repeated assurances, the Shop Assistant could only obediently go to serve the food.

“Is the food of your Human Race delicious?” Taowu asked in a low voice.

“Just try it. If you think their food isn't tasty, there are other restaurants nearby.”

Having finally managed to sit down and rest, Xiao Feng didn't want to say another word to Taowu right now.

Unfortunately, whatever one fears comes to pass; the two of them had barely sat down for long when Taowu was targeted by a diner who was also eating there.

Xuanyuan Jian knew his luck was always very good.

But he didn't expect that just by randomly picking a restaurant to eat at, he would actually be able to see such an Advanced Spirit Beast!

From the moment those two men stepped into the restaurant until they sat down at a table nearby, Xuanyuan Jian's gaze had been glued to one of the men.

It wasn't that he had a penchant for men, but rather that his Magical Artifact indicated that this man was not a true human race cultivator, but a Yao Beast in human form.

Although he couldn't tell what kind of Yao Beast the man in human form was, any Yao Beast capable of shapeshifting was no waste, and Xuanyuan Jian took a fancy to him at a glance!

Even more wonderfully, his Magical Artifact sensed that this shapeshifted Yao Beast did not have a contract with the man beside him.

This meant that the Yao Beast was still ownerless.

If he could trick that Yao Beast and make it acknowledge him as its master...

Xuanyuan Jian was still here daydreaming, not realizing that Taowu's gaze had already drifted toward him.

Taowu was not that sensitive to the gazes of others watching him.

If Xuanyuan Jian hadn't been staring at Taowu so intently, Taowu would not have noticed the greed in the other party's eyes.

Taowu even specifically asked Xiao Feng who the person staring at him over there was, and if Xiao Feng knew him.

Xiao Feng looked in the direction of Taowu's gaze and saw the greedy-faced Xuanyuan Jian.

He had never met Xuanyuan Jian, so naturally, he could not recognize him.

“When you take human form, can others tell?” Xiao Feng frowned and then looked at Taowu.

“They shouldn't be able to. I took your appearance to turn into a human; except for the face being different, everything else is about the same. Nobody discovered it on our way here either.” Taowu was also very puzzled.

Xiao Feng observed Xuanyuan Jian calmly again and discovered that there seemed to be something worn on Xuanyuan Jian's wrist.

“It might be because there is a Magical Artifact guiding him; some Magical Artifacts can distinguish identities based on the differences between the Human Race and the Yao Race.” Xiao Feng dug through his mind for various Yao-seeking Magical Artifacts.

“You Human Race really are amazing.” Taowu's tone was strange, as if he were mocking.

Xiao Feng ignored Taowu, and after the Shop Assistant brought the dishes up, Taowu immediately began to eat frantically.

Xiao Feng only held a bowl of ordinary sweet soup and drank it slowly on the side.

In his peripheral vision, Xiao Feng saw the person who had been staring at Taowu just now stand up and walk toward their table.

Xiao Feng kicked Taowu under the table.

Taowu was eating braised pork knuckle and was stunned by Xiao Feng's sudden kick. He looked up at Xiao Feng, just about to ask why Xiao Feng kicked him.

Taowu suddenly heard a disgusting voice from beside him.

“Two Young Masters, I am Xuanyuan Jian, the Young Lord of the Tianyi Sect. May I share a table with you two?”

Xiao Feng didn't even lift his head and completely ignored Xuanyuan Jian.

He didn't expect this person to actually be the Young Lord of the Tianyi Sect.

Why would the Young Lord of the Tianyi Sect appear near their Ming Cult?

Could it be that the Tianyi Sect has some plan targeting the Ming Cult?

Xiao Feng knew that Xuanyuan Jian's goal was not aimed at him, so whether he agreed or not, this shameless-looking person would stay.

Xiao Feng simply decided not to speak either.

Xiao Feng didn't speak, and Taowu didn't speak either.

Xuanyuan Jian chuckled, sat directly on the other side of Taowu, and smilingly said: “Two Fellow Daoists, please do not misunderstand. I see that the Qi aura around you two is surging; I assume you are not ordinary people, so I would like to make friends with you two Fellow Daoists.”

Xiao Feng still drank the sweet soup in his bowl indifferently.

Taowu continued to stuff his face with the food on the table.

Xuanyuan Jian acted as if he couldn't see that the two were unwilling to pay attention to him and began to talk to Taowu frantically.

In his words, he directly pointed out that he already knew Taowu was a Yao Beast in human form, and he was also curious why Taowu did not have a contract with Xiao Feng?

Was Xiao Feng traveling outside with Taowu to find a suitable master for Taowu?

“I happen to be short of a Spirit Beast for a contract. Would you be willing to contract with me? I definitely won't treat you poorly; I am the Young Lord of the Tianyi Sect, and I can enjoy the resources of the Tianyi Sect to my heart's content. I heard that there is a great risk for Yao Beasts to advance; with the resources of the Tianyi Sect, you will definitely be able to become more powerful.”

Xuanyuan Jian leaned next to Taowu and kept nagging.

Taowu directly blocked out Xuanyuan Jian's voice and continued to enjoy the delicious food on the table.

Xuanyuan Jian didn't feel awkward at all, and kept chattering on the side about why they appeared here.

Xiao Feng appeared to ignore Xuanyuan Jian, but in reality, he was distinguishing the information revealed in Xuanyuan Jian's words.

Xuanyuan Jian did not come alone; there should also be the Senior Brother of the Tianyi Sect following him.

The two of them went down the mountain to travel.

But not long after going down the mountain, the Senior Brother got separated from him.

He knew that the Senior Brother had always looked down on him, and the reason he wanted to contract with Taowu...

...was just to let the Senior Brother know that he was not a useless piece of trash.

At the next Sect Competition, he could use Taowu's power to directly defeat the Senior Brother.

His Senior Brother's name was Sun Yuanjie.

Xiao Feng could feel that when Xuanyuan Jian mentioned Sun Yuanjie, his words were full of displeasure.
