Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Dominance_1
After getting rid of Nangong Luo and his crew, Zhang Xian returned to the Fairy Palace around noon.
Nangong Wu and Li Peichi had already been waiting for him at the door.
Recently, due to being watched by others, they didn’t dare to venture out often, and instead ordered takeout to eat at the office. But now that Zhang Xian was with them, they didn’t want to hole up in the office any longer.
"How did it go?"
Seeing Zhang Xian return from afar, Li Peichi ran over and asked, "Did you give them a good thrashing?"
"Of course!" Zhang Xian replied cheerfully and nodded.
Nangong Wu didn’t ask anything, but her thoughts were not as straightforward as Li Peichi’s.
Although Li Peichi used to be a reporter, her thinking was rather na??ve and she hardly dwelled on the dark side of things. She assud Nangong Luo and his crew were probably in a terrible predicant.
"Why are you two outside?" Zhang Xian asked, grinning.
With a pout, Li Peichi replied, "Lately, we’ve been holed up in there all day. It’s so boring. Since you’re here today, we want to get out and stroll around."
Zhang Xian laughed and said, "Sure, let’s go out for lunch."
Li Peichi chuckled, hooked her arm through Zhang Xian’s, and off they went. "Great! I’ve been cooped up for a while, and I’m ready to treat myself to a big al."
Zhang Xian gave a crafty grin and said, "Go ahead and indulge! I hope you double in weight and turn into a fat lady."
"You’re the one who’ll get fat!"
Li Peichi pouted again and said, "I’m naturally slim and no matter how much I eat, I won’t get fat. Your wish will never co true."
"Little Sister Peici, you better not provoke ! If you really get on my nerves, I can do anything."
Zhang Xian leered, "To , making soone lose or gain weight is as easy as child’s play. Believe it or not, I can make you weigh more than 200 pounds in a month."
"Ah..."
Li Peichi’s eyes widened, "You...you’re not joking with , are you?"
Nangong Wu also stared at him, bewildered.
If Zhang Xian really could do that, wouldn’t it be incredible? Any beauty who ca his way could be turned into a frumpy girl! What would she look like if she weighed more than 200 pounds?
"What do you think ... "
Zhang Xian, with a smile, looked at Li Peichi and asked, "Do I look like I’m joking?"
"You... you dare ..."
Li Peichi threatened, "If you dare to make
fat, I will get you back while you sleep and secretly turn you into a eunuch."
"Um ..." Zhang Xian managed, a bitter smile creeping across his face.
Nangong Wu also looked exasperatedly at Li Peichi. Could she watch her words? How could she just blurt out sothing like that? There were so many people on the street!
"You ..."
Li Peichi had been speaking rather loudly, and many passersby had heard her.
At this mont, quite a few people were looking at her in bewildernt, making her wish she could find a hole to hide in and stay there until the coast was clear.
"I don’t know her."
Zhang Xian rubbed his nose and quickly picked up the pace.
Seeing him move away, Li Peichi ran after him, her grip on Zhang Xian’s arm tightened even though her ample chest was pressed against Zhang Xian’s arm.
"So soft....."
Zhang Xian’s eyes lit up.
Of course, he didn’t let this thought show on his face. If Li Peichi caught on, he could bid any enjoynt goodbye.
"How about this place?"
Standing in front of a restaurant, Nangong Wu asked, "I don’t really like western food. But if you guys want, I can accompany you."
"We’ll go with this one!" Zhang Xian replied, and then they walked in.
It was lunch rush, and there were many custors in the restaurant. As soon as they walked in, they were greeted with a mouthwatering aroma and a buzz of lively conversations and laughter.
"I’ve eaten here a few tis before, the food’s solid."
Nangong Wu sat down at a table, picked up the nu, and said with a smile, "Let’s order!"
"You order!"
Zhang Xian said, "When I go out to eat, I usually don’t order. I’ll just eat whatever you order. I’m very easy-going."
Li Peichi glanced at the nu and then turned to a waitress and asked, "Do you have pig feed on your nu?"
"Pig ... pig feed ..."
After a mont of hesitation, the bewildered waitress offered a bitter smile and said, "Miss, we ... don’t ... don’t have pig feed ..."
"What do you need pig feed for?" asked Nangong Wu, puzzled.
Li Peichi replied, "Didn’t soone just say that he’ll eat whatever we order? I want to order pig feed and see if he can stomach it."
"Um ..."
Zhang Xian’s lip twitched unnaturally at her words. This girl was going too far!
"Pfft..."
The waitress giggled at Li Peichi’s comnt but quickly smothered her laughter.
"I’ll order then!"
Nangong Wu ordered, shaking her head and smiling wryly.
"Miss Nangong."
Suddenly, a voice filled with surprise sounded.
Then, a young man and an old man walked over. They were Xin Chuifeng and Liu Changfeng. Sohow these two had managed to blow their way over here.
"Xin Chuifeng?"
Upon seeing Xin Chuifeng, Nangong Wu furrowed her brow and asked, "What are you doing here looking for ? Is there sothing you want?"
"Not exactly looking for you per se."
Xin Chuifeng smiled and said, "Uncle Liu and I ca here to eat, coincidentally saw you here, and so we ca to say hello. I must say, the two of us seem to have quite the destiny."
"Uncle Liu..."
Nangong Wu glanced at Xin Chuifeng and then stood up, smiling at Liu Changfeng.
She didn’t care much for Xin Chuifeng, but she wouldn’t dare to be neglectful of Liu Changfeng, the head of the First family of Yanjing.
"Ha Ha! You must be Nangong Wu!"
Liu Changfeng laughed, then looked over at Zhang Xian and said, "Little Brother, you’re here too! How about we have a drink together? I still rember our prior appointnt."
"Er..."
Xin Chuifeng was sowhat puzzled upon hearing this.
What does this old man an? Doesn’t he know that I’m not on good terms with Zhang Xian? Proposing a drink with Zhang Xian is like slapping my fair and handso face, isn’t it?
Of course, he was inwardly displeased, but didn’t dare to let it show on his face. The Liu family was on the sa level as their Xin family, both belonging to the Five Great Families. Not to ntion, Liu Changfeng was the Family Head of Liu family.
Zhang Xian laughed and said, "An unexpected eting warrants a drink, please sit down, Mr. Liu."
"Alright!"
Liu Changfeng laughed heartily and took a seat beside Zhang Xian.
The corners of Xin Chuifeng’s mouth twitched unnaturally a few tis, as he too sat down. His gaze constantly road over Nangong Wu.
"This Nangong Wu seems a bit special."
Liu Changfeng noticed Xin Chuifeng’s strange gaze on Nangong Wu and also sensed a faint chill emanating from her. His brows furrowed.
However, his perception ability wasn’t very strong. He couldn’t dig deeper to find out the cause.
In postnatal individuals, the strength of perception varies. So people with strong souls naturally have stronger perception abilities, whereas those with weaker souls have correspondingly weaker sensitivities.
He belonged to the latter group, barely able to sense the dark energy around Nangong Wu, but unable to discern where it was coming from.
"Miss Nangong."
With a slight smile on his face, Xin Chuifeng looked at Nangong Wu and suggested, "Shall we order? Or do you want to add more dishes?"
"You order," Nangong Wu coldly replied.
Initially, she didn’t have any malice towards Xin Chuifeng. But when the Nangong Family arrived this ti, she found herself developing a hatred towards him.
"If you want to order, go ahead..."
Zhang Xian looked up at Xin Chuifeng and warned, "Don’t let
catch you ogling Sister Wu with that look that pisses
off. If you dare to misbehave, be prepared to be punished by my hand."
"You..." Xin Chuifeng was furious upon hearing this.
Damn it, I’m a young master of the Xin Family, one of the Five Great Families. Could this bastard afford
so respect?
"Um..." Liu Changfeng’s expression slightly changed.
He attempted friendly engagents with Zhang Xian because of an incident at a banquet where he noticed Xin Chuifeng seed wary of Zhang Xian. It gave him the impression that Zhang Xian had quite a background.
However, seeing Zhang Xian showing no regard for Xin Chuifeng’s dignity and threatening physical violence only confird his earlier assumption. This guy wasn’t ordinary; even the Xin Family had to tread lightly around him.
"What? You dare to glare?" Zhang Xian stood up, looking ready for a fight.
He had never liked Xin Chuifeng to begin with, and after the arrival of the Nangong Family, he escalated the status of Xin Chuifeng from simply being annoying to an enemy.
Should the necessity arise, he wouldn’t hesitate to destroy him, even though it might an making enemies with both the Nangong and Xin families.
"Stop..."
Xin Chuifeng was scared and quickly retreated.
Realizing his show of cowardice might have been a bit overboard, he quickly straightened his clothes and sat back down, his face turning blacker than the bottom of a pot. This guy, he’s gone too far!
"Little punk..."
Leaning on the table with both hands, Zhang Xian coldly glanced at Xin Chuifeng and said, "I am reminding you today, you better not think about my sister Wu. Otherwise, it won’t just be you who is in danger, your entire Xin family will face destruction. Don’t think I’m joking with you. You’re not even worth my ti to fool around with."
"You..." Xin Chuifeng turned red with rage.
This damn Zhang Xian was too arrogant, disregarding their Xin Family. Even if he was an Innate expert and extrely talented, shouldn’t he be more humble?
"Hiss..." Liu Changfeng inhaled sharply.
He had looked into Zhang Xian’s strength and influence but didn’t get any result.
At this mont, this guy was audaciously threatening to destroy the Xin Family. What was going on? Had he beco so powerful?
"Damn it!"
Liu Changfeng furrowed his brows, mumbling to himself, "When did Yanjing produce such a powerhouse? If this guy really could destroy the Xin family, I’m afraid a bloody storm would follow."
"Zhang Xian..."
Xin Chuifeng took a deep breath, and standing up he said, "Are you declaring war against our Xin Family?"
"Am I not allowed to declare war against your Xin family? Is the Xin family a mighty bull?
Zhang Xian suddenly gripped Xin Chuifeng’s neck, raised him off the ground, and said coldly, "Last ti you were showing off in front of Sister Wu, and I let it go. This ti, the Nangong Family cos and says that Sister Wu is promised to you, and that they want to seize control of the Fairy Palace. Are you challenging my patience? Believe it or not, I can take you to hell right now?"
"Cough, cough..."
Xin Chuifeng coughed and said, "I only proposed to the Nangong Family. Whatever the Nangong Family does, what does that have to do with ?"
"Xin, are you taking my intelligence for granted or are you underestimating your own intellect?"
Zhang Xian intensified his grip on Xin Chuifeng’s neck and said, "You thought I wouldn’t figure out your sche? I know far more than you do, waste."
