Half an hour later.
The servants of Qingyan Valley gradually brought out all kinds of delicious food.
“Come, little brothers, try it and see if the flavor suits your taste.”
Wang Zhi said while he pointed towards the dishes and poured wine for Victor.
Hua Feng followed Wang Zhi’s introduction and looked at each dish one by one.
Wild boar meat, tiger bone soup, rabbit meat, venison, snake soup, bird’s nest, and so on were all available.
Suddenly, his eyes could not be moved away, and his mouth was wide open.
Especially when he smelled the aroma of the food, he felt that his saliva was about to leak from his mouth.
This was not Hua Feng’s fault. After all, the Qingyun Sect emphasized on practicing asceticism and ate vegetarian meals mostly.
“Little brothers, why don’t you try this Tiger Bone soup first? This great soup has beneficial effects which will strengthen the body of us martial arts practitioners, it will also increase your appetite!”
Wang Zhi was as enthusiastic as ever. He greeted the two of them while he personally served the soup for Victor.
“Valley Master Wang, how dare we as junior elder and brother accept such enthusiastic hospitality from you!”
Seeing Wang Zhi’s actions, Victor, who had been silent all this while, stared at him and suddenly spoke.
Wang Zhi listed his head and met Victor’s cold gaze. His pupils contracted.
Then, he quickly returned to normal and laughed loudly:
“Little brother, you’re treating me like an outsider. You’re distinguished guests from afar, so I naturally have to entertain you well. If word gets out that I, Wang Zhi of Qingyan Valley, don’t know how to treat guests, then my reputation will be tarnished!”
Wang Zhi said with a sad face.
After listening to these words, Hua Feng, who was at the side, couldn’t stand it any longer.
From Hua Feng’s point of view, the valley master was willing to put down his status and forget about the past.
However, his junior elder was making things difficult for him. He was crossing the line.
Hua Feng was about to comfort Wang Zhi and advise his junior elder.
However, he noticed Victor’s cold gaze and chickened out.
Victor turned his head.
When he met Wang Zhi’s honest expression again, the corner of his mouth curved as he said slowly,
“Valley Master Wang, you specially brought so many dishes for our sake. The two of us won’t be able to finish them all.
“If the great elder, who loves good food and is hardworking and conserving, found out that we were squandering and wasting food outside, he would definitely heavily punish us.
“Therefore, I propose to invite the noblewoman and your dear son out to dine together.
“In that case, this will be your Qingyan Valley’s family banquet, and we will just be passer bys. This way, even if the great elder finds out, we won’t be punished!”
At the side.
Hua Feng heard Victor’s words and seemed to have imagined his master’s solemn expression. He also began to persuade Wang Zhi:
“Yes, Valley Master Wang, my master is very strict with discipline. You’ve served so many dishes for me and junior elder. Even if we include you, we won’t be able to finish them all.”
“This…”
Wang Zhi’s expression suddenly changed. He didn’t expect Hua Feng to actually side with Victor.
“I’m sorry, it is indeed my fault. I’ll ask them to come over and have a meal together.”
The moment Wang Zhi turned around, the killing intent in his eyes were almost overflowing.
Not long after.
Wang Zhi walked in with a beautiful middle-aged woman.
Meanwhile, Wang Chen, whose limbs were crippled, was carried into the living room.
At this moment, Wang Chen could no longer bear the pain of his broken leg. He was already unconscious.
Even so, his pained groans could still be heard from time to time.
Then, everyone took their respective seats.
Victor looked at Wang Zhi expressionlessly, but he was sneering in his heart.
This Wang Zhi was impressively capable. He was actually able to prevent his wife from throwing a fit.
No one knew what he had say, but he was able to make her dine at the same table with someone who was responsible for the breaking of her son’s limbs.
“Come, come, everyone is here now. Little brothers, hurry up and eat. Don’t you still have to a journey to continue?”
Wang Zhi greeted them with a smile again.
As he said that, he quickly picked up a piece of pork and placed it in his wife’s bowl.
After looking at Wang Zhi picking up the food, Hua Feng finally couldn’t hold it in anymore.
He picked up the chopsticks and went for the largest piece of venison.
Finally, he saw that Victor and Hua Feng were willing to start eating.
Suddenly, Wang Zhi pretended as if he had thought of something and said, “Little brother, don’t just eat the vegetables. Drink some soup. The Tiger Bone soup will lose its efficacy if it gets cold.”
Wang Zhi, who was at the side, smiled slightly. A completely different expression from what he had.
On the surface, Victor was just eating vegetables, but in truth, he had been paying attention to his expression.
Naturally, he could tell that there was something wrong with the soup!
Meanwhile, Victor did not wait for Hua Feng to take the soup. He proceeded and used the spoon and poured a big bowl of Tiger Bone soup for Wang Zhi’s wife.
“Madam, I’m really sorry. I have a lot of responsibility for what happened to your precious child. Although it was not caused by me, I was indirectly related.
“Therefore, I take this opportunity to pour you this bowl of Tiger Bone Soup as an apology. I hope you can forgive me.”
Looking at Victor’s sincere expression, Wang Zhi’s wife couldn’t refuse. She looked at Wang Zhi and saw that he didn’t say anything.
“Okay, I’ll drink it!” As she said that, Mrs. Wang picked up the porcelain bowl and drank it in one gulp.
Seeing that Mrs. Wang had swallowed all the soup, Victor glanced at Wang Zhi and saw that his face was twitching mildly. He couldn’t help but snicker in his heart.
When Hua Feng saw that the ladle was available, he wanted to try a bowl of Tiger Bone soup as well.
Bang!
Hua Feng suddenly felt a sharp pain in his calf, as if he had been struck by an iron rod.
When he turned his head to look, Junior Elder Victor looked at him seriously and shook his head slightly.
Although he didn’t know what Victor was thinking, he understood that he shoudn’t drink this soup, although he didn’t exactly know why.
After all, his youngest uncle hadn’t drink it, and he was eager to drink the soup, which embarrassed Qingyun Sect’s reputation.
On the other side of the dining table.
At this moment, Wang Zhi’s face was getting uglier and uglier, and his hands that were under the dining table were clenched tightly.
If one paid close attention, one would notice that his body was actually slightly trembling.
Bang!
At this moment, Mrs. Wang, who was eating rabbit meat, fell to the ground, bleeding from her seven orifices of the head.
Shoo!
At this moment.
A fist’s shadow condensed from true qi, mixed with lightning appeared out of thin air.
The speed of this fist was extremely fast, like lightning, and it smashed towards Victor’s head.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”
Victor, who was at the side, had already activated his max-level Wind technique fully through the accumulation of energy.
In an instant, his body disappeared, avoiding Wang Zhi’s Thunder Fist.
When he reappeared, he was behind Wang Zhi.
Then, he threw a punch!
It was also a Thunder Fist.
“Ah…”
Wang Zhi screamed in pain. A shadow first with the power of thunder and lightning pierced through his back straight through his chest.
“Puff…”
A large amount of blood mixed with damaged internal organs spurted out from his mouth.
He looked at Victor with a face full of disbelief.
“Thunder Fist?”
“How do you know Thunder Fist?”
Wang Zhi endured the pain of his internal organs crushing and questioned loudly.
“Also… how did you know that I would poison the Tiger Bone Soup?”
