Douluo Continent: Heavenly Mystery System

Chapter 26 Bone Douluo fanning the flames

"Of course, of course, please come upstairs, you two," Manager Li hurriedly led Sword Douluo and Ye Xiaofeng to the private room.

"Manager Li, you know what I mean," Ye Xiaofeng said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Young Master Ye, Senior Chenxin will definitely be satisfied with the meal." Manager Li knew that Ye Xiaofeng's wink earlier meant that the money had been received.

"Feng'er, your relationship with Manager Li is quite unusual." Sword Douluo could tell from the conversation between Ye Xiaofeng and Manager Li that their relationship was not ordinary.

"Hehe, Master, nothing can escape your discerning eyes. I came to the capital and stayed here. Over time, I became familiar with Manager Li. After winning two matches, Manager Li was itching to try his luck and lent me 2 million." Ye Xiaofeng smiled innocently at Sword Douluo and quickly poured wine.

"You can borrow 100 million so easily, why don't you ask Manager Li to lend me 100 million too?" Sword Douluo wanted to tease Ye Xiaofeng, this little guy dared to fool him.

"Oh right, this is for you, Master." Ye Xiaofeng hurriedly took out the 1 million black gold card that Luo Shaotian had given him from his soul tool storage ring.

"Take this and use it yourself, consider it a gift from your master." Sword Douluo is not short of money, and Ye Xiaofeng just happened to be in urgent need of money.

"Master, with your prestigious status as a Super Douluo, isn't a gift of 100 million a bit too little?" Ye Xiaofeng said with a shameless smile.

"Hmm, if you think it's not enough, give it to me, I'll give you more next time." Sword Douluo was drinking and listening to Ye Xiaofeng's flattery, and he was happy to hear it. But when he heard the second half of the sentence, he immediately turned black-faced. He didn't expect his disciple to ask for such an exorbitant amount.

"Hehe, not too much, not too little." Ye Xiaofeng quickly put the black gold card into his soul tool storage ring. If his master took it back, who knew when he would give him the gift? He might not even give it to him at all.

"Manager Li, I didn't get enough of the food yesterday, you know what I mean." At that moment, Bone Douluo also arrived from downstairs.

"I didn't know Senior Gu Rong was so welcoming. Please come in," Manager Li hurriedly greeted Bone Douluo.

"Senior, would you like to eat alone, or with Senior Chen Xin?" Manager Li asked timidly as he accompanied Bone Douluo upstairs. If you serve this kind of big shot well, everything will be fine; if you don't, there will be endless trouble.

"Why is this coward here too?" Bone Douluo shouted at Manager Li, actually speaking to Sword Douluo inside.

"What? You, Blackie, can come, but I can't?" Sword Douluo continued to drink elegantly, ignoring everything else.

Ye Xiaofeng saw Bone Douluo slowly walk in, with Manager Li following behind, looking embarrassed.

"My master and I just arrived here when Elder Bone arrived. It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early," Ye Xiaofeng quickly changed the subject to Bone Douluo, otherwise the two would start arguing again.

"Manager Li, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring out the wine, and all the signature dishes!" Ye Xiaofeng said to Manager Li again.

"Alright, it'll be right there!" Manager Li finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly backed out to close the door.

"Elder Bone, please sit down and have a drink," Ye Xiaofeng said, taking the initiative and acting as a waiter, quickly pouring wine for Bone Douluo.

"Why are you here instead of staying in the sect?" Sword Douluo was clearly unhappy that Bone Douluo had come to bother him.

"This isn't your place. If you can come, why can't I?" Bone Douluo retorted.

"You came here with us just to freeload, don't think I don't know," Sword Douluo deliberately wanted to embarrass Bone Douluo.

"Pah! You're really trying to make yourself look good. I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as you. You two clearly saw me walking this way and came in ahead of time." Bone Douluo's words were spot on.

"Blackie, you'd better stay in the sect. I know it's not your fault that you're ugly, but it's wrong of you to come out and scare people in broad daylight." Sword Douluo deliberately provoked Bone Douluo.

"Coward, don't attack me personally. You're practically half-buried, yet you still have that pretty face. You're no better than me." Bone Douluo disliked Sword Douluo's comments about his appearance the most.

"A handsome man like me is a once-in-a-century sight," Sword Douluo said, brushing his white hair aside with his finger and smiling with satisfaction.

"The food's here!" Manager Li shouted from outside the door, carrying the food inside. Normally, serving dishes was the job of the shop's waiters, but with these important people in the room, Manager Li had to do it himself.

"Master, Elder, let's eat first, and we can talk about the rest after we've eaten," Ye Xiaofeng began to act as a peacemaker.

Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo glanced at each other, then turned their heads away in disgust, not wanting to see each other.

"Seniors, Young Master Ye is right. These dishes will lose their original flavor once they get cold," Manager Li quickly echoed Ye Xiaofeng's words.

"Let me make this clear first, I'm only letting you off the hook because I want to eat," Bone Douluo said, softening his stance after hearing Ye Xiaofeng and Manager Li's words.

"I'm too lazy to talk to you, lest it affect my appetite," Sword Douluo said, not wanting to continue teasing Bone Douluo.

"Manager Li, your cooking is quite good," Bone Douluo said as he started eating, not forgetting to praise Manager Li.

"Senior, I'm glad you like it." Manager Li was naturally pleased to be praised by Bone Douluo.

"Hey, I haven't even touched my chopsticks yet," Sword Douluo said disapprovingly as he watched Bone Douluo wolf down his food.

"Who cares if you eat or not?" Bone Douluo said bluntly, as long as he was comfortable eating.

Sword Douluo ignored Bone Douluo, and Ye Xiaofeng also ate with the two of them.

Once Bone Douluo had eaten and drunk his fill, his mouth started to chatter again.

"I enjoyed the meal today. I would be even happier if you didn't spoil my mood," she said to Sword Douluo, who was drinking.

"Can't even food shut you up?" Sword Douluo's good mood was ruined by Bone Douluo, that black-hearted fool.

"Then you shouldn't come here to eat," Bone Douluo said, not backing down from Sword Douluo. He was full and ready to digest.

"Elder Bone, this is the reward I promised you." Ye Xiaofeng took out a black gold card worth one hundred million and handed it to Bone Douluo.

Unlike Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo wouldn't refuse the 100 million and casually take the black gold card from Ye Xiaofeng's hand, putting it into the soul tool storage ring on his finger.

"I didn't expect you two to get it done so quickly. I should have gone with you." Bone Douluo knew that Sword Douluo and Ye Xiaofeng had gone to the Great Soul Arena to collect money, but he still acted innocent despite getting the benefit.

"How dare you accept money from my disciple?" Sword Douluo looked at Bone Douluo with disdain.

"What do you mean by your disciple's money? This is my money, okay? Ye Xiaofeng, tell me, isn't this a tribute to me?" Unable to win the argument with Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo turned his attention to Ye Xiaofeng.

"Hehe, it's my gift to Elder Bone, so it's only right that Elder Bone accepts it," Ye Xiaofeng could only laugh awkwardly, as he couldn't afford to offend Bone Douluo.

"You're smart, kid." Bone Douluo accepted the 100 million, and no longer cared about the 50 million he had lost before, since he had gotten that money back anyway.

"Feng'er and I are going back to our sect, so you don't need to come with us," Sword Douluo said to Bone Douluo indifferently after he had finished eating.

"You go your way, I'll go mine. Besides, the sect isn't something you can decide on your own," Bone Douluo said, his teeth itching with anger at Sword Douluo's words.

"Alright then, you go back to the sect first, I'll take Feng'er to the auction house." Sword Douluo smiled slyly.

"Who wants to go with you guys? Honestly!" With that, Bone Douluo stormed off in a huff.

"Feng'er, let's go to the auction house." Sword Douluo didn't want to return to the sect so soon.

"Master, why do you and Elder Gu bicker as soon as you meet?" Ye Xiaofeng looked at the two of them, both of whom were titled Douluo revered by thousands, but the two of them seemed like little children.

"When we were both at level 95, we made a bet on who could break through to level 96 before the other, and he lost in the end," Sword Douluo said calmly.

From then on, Bone Douluo basically handled all the affairs of the sect, leaving him with more free time. This is how Ye Xiaofeng came to see what he sees now.

The two of them would start bickering as soon as they met, neither willing to back down. Over time, it became a habit, and they would feel uneasy if they didn't bicker for a few days.

"Let's go. You'll understand what kind of person he is in a moment." Sword Douluo smiled at Ye Xiaofeng, then turned and the two left Heaven and Earth.

Bone Douluo didn't go with them this time, but went straight back to his sect. Suddenly, he thought of something and smiled lewdly.

"Grandpa Bone, where have you been? I haven't been able to find you all afternoon," Ning Rongrong asked when she saw Bone Douluo.

"I ate at Manager Li's restaurant yesterday, but I wasn't satisfied, so I went to Heaven and Earth for a casual meal," Bone Douluo said with a smile. He seemed like a completely different person from the one Ye Xiaofeng had met. Bone Douluo looked at Ning Rongrong as if she were his own granddaughter.

"Hmph, Grandpa Bone doesn't love me anymore. He sneaks out to eat by himself without taking me with him," Ning Rongrong said, instantly becoming unhappy.

"When I went to Heaven on Earth for dinner, guess who I saw?" Bone Douluo said to Ning Rongrong with a surprised expression.

"Who did you see?" Bone Douluo's words immediately caught Ning Rongrong's attention.

"I saw your Grandpa Jian having a meal secretly at the Heaven and Earth restaurant with his precious apprentice," he said with a sinister smile.

"You damn sword grandpa, you've forgotten about your granddaughter now that you have a new disciple!" Ning Rongrong was already furious because Bone Douluo had left her to eat, and now that Bone Douluo had said that, it was even worse, adding fuel to the fire.

"That's what I thought too, but I overheard them talking about going to some kind of auction house." Bone Douluo was secretly delighted, wondering how that coward would handle things later.

"I'm so angry!" Ning Rongrong stomped her foot in anger.

"Rongrong, maybe your Bone Grandpa misheard. It's only right that your Sword Grandpa accompanies his new disciple for a meal." Bone Douluo couldn't be too obvious, otherwise it would arouse Ning Rongrong's suspicion. The best way was to retreat in order to advance.

"What do you mean 'should'? Is my granddaughter not even as good as the disciple he just took in?" Ning Rongrong looked at Bone Douluo with red eyes and a wronged expression.

"How about this, Grandpa Bone will accompany you to the auction house. Whatever you want to buy, Grandpa Bone will buy it for you." This time, Bone Douluo wanted to use this precious granddaughter to persuade Sword Douluo and Ye Xiaofeng.

"I want to see what Grandpa Jian will buy for him," Ning Rongrong said angrily.

"Then let's hurry up and get them, otherwise the two of them will have already bought them," Bone Douluo said to Ning Rongrong.

From childhood to adulthood, Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo indulged Ning Rongrong's demands, and even her father, Ning Fengzhi, did not interfere. Over time, she developed a slightly arrogant and domineering temperament, but she never went too far.

Ning Rongrong was originally angry with Bone Douluo, but after Bone Douluo added fuel to the fire, her anger was completely transferred to Sword Douluo and Ye Xiaofeng.
