Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 1475

Chapter 1216: Beat Up

With just a single sentence, Qin Yu knew that Dragini had no good intentions. This so-called prize was likely some trap she had dug.

This was a simple truth. If someone asked who in the Dragon Palace had the most enemies and was the most hated right now, it would most definitely be Qin Yu.

The previous liveliness of the courtyard where Peachy lived was equivalent to how many people there were waiting to clean him up now. And each and every one of those people was an absolutely powerful character!

They didn’t dare to come over and cause trouble before. First, this was the East Sea Dragon Palace, so they had to have scruples and consider the Dragon Saint’s face. Second, attacking Qin Yu, the supposed son-in-law of the peach garden, without any reason at all, would have dire consequences.

But now a chance had come!

The Dragon Saint had put out a victory prize. Everyone would be furiously competing for it, even if it was just as a show of support. Hands and swords were blind…accidentally hurting someone during battle was a normal matter.

Qin Yu suddenly woke up. No wonder everyone along the way had been looking at him with eagerness and ill intent. It seemed they had already heard about the matter of the prize.

Looking at Dragini, Qin Yu sneered inwardly. No matter how precious the prize was that the Dragon Saint took out, what could they do to him if he didn’t participate? Could she force him to go on stage?

Sensing Qin Yu’s gaze, Dragini’s smile brightened. Did Qin Yu think that the plan she came up with could be so easily avoided? Hoho, you want to hide like a turtle? You won’t have a chance!

As he grew older, when someone mentioned the word sleep, he would feel sleepy. And for some unknown reason, he fell asleep. Luckily this sleep didn’t last for too long, otherwise the great longevity feast would have been ruined. To be honest, as an old dragon who had lived for an unknown period of years, the Dragon Saint didn’t actually care about events like this longevity feast.

But this time was different. At this longevity feast, there were two little kids worth paying attention to.

The first was Peachy. This little girl’s situation was quite complicated, and the Dragon Saint had no idea what the peach seller was plotting.

The other one was Qin Yu. This boy was good, and letting him stay in the peach garden with the peach seller was just a waste of a good seedling.

With noble feelings that talented geniuses should not be wasted, the Dragon Saint decided to have him stay behind in the East Sea and mentor him. Qin Yu would have a bright future and wouldn’t waste his talent.

Of course, this matter was still a long way from being successful. But the Dragon Saint was confident that he could squeeze Qin Yu in his hands like putty. This was the East Sea and he was confident in his home stage. Even if that old peach seller came, he could give up any idea of a bargain.

But after waking up and asking around, the Dragon Saint almost had a heart attack. My daughter, if you have nothing to do why are you messing with him? This was a simple matter initially, but after you caused such a mess, so many twists and turns have appeared out of nowhere.

If that peach seller was shameless, he could grab onto this point and say that the East Sea was trying to snatch away the peach garden’s son-in-law. At that time, he really would be left with an ugly complexion. This wasn’t good. He had to hurry up. If Dragini messed around again, only the heavens knew what would happen next.

So after the Dragon Saint woke up, he decided to hold the longevity feast immediately.

When Dragini came over and proposed a victory prize as a reward for all the juniors who came to celebrate his longevity feast, the Dragon Saint was able to see through her plan with a single glance.

Originally, he planned to refuse her. The East Sea Dragon Saint only ate and never spat food back out, so how could he give out treasures he had? However, after thinking about it, he changed his mind. This could be considered a chance to further observe Qin Yu.

After all, if the Dragon Saint planned to make him stay behind, he would have to pay a steep price. There was no problem with being a bit more cautious.

If this boy really was worthy and malleable material, then he could firm his resolve. Conversely…he could also make more adjustments in his plan.

Because while that peach seller had a decent character, his fist was still hard. If there weren’t enough benefits, it was best not to provoke him.

The grand hall where the Dragon Saint’s longevity feast was held was truly magnificent and opulent. But right now, Qin Yu wasn’t in the mood to pay attention to such things.

He stared at the jade card in his hand, quietly clenching his jaws. He thought that this little harlot Dragini really was far too vicious!

No wonder she had loudly bragged about her plan of digging a pit for him and didn’t fear that Qin Yu would do something to foil her. It was because from the very start, she had suffocated the possibility of him being able to refuse to participate.

All of the participating guests in the longevity feast hall had a jade card in hand. According to the cultivators who presided over the Dragon Palace banquet, the Lord Dragon Saint didn’t like to bother himself with tedious processes. As long as anyone could defeat three opponents in a row, they could win the prize.

One could choose their opponent and they could also be chosen by others. The rules were simple and the efficiency was high. Of course, it wasn’t without loopholes. If everyone cooperated with each other, it wouldn’t be difficult to win three games.

But the question was that in today’s situation, and with a prize that the Dragon Saint himself put out, who would do something so shameful? Putting aside how disgraceful it would be, what if the Dragon Saint ended up annoyed? The losses would not equal the gains then.

Moreover, everyone had another thought in their hearts – they could forget the prize, but Qin Yu had to take a beating! An excellent chance to beat up this villain had appeared right in front of them, and they didn’t need to worry about it being investigated later.

Just thinking about this made them feel comfortable!

The result was that as Qin Yu stood beside Peachy, he already received numerous wicked glares. Their eyes seemed to shoot knives.

There was even a chance to personally do it themselves. While the hall seemed festive and joyful, there were numerous transactions happening in secret.

“Brother Liu, when you challenge Qin Yu, how about you intentionally lose and give him your card?”

“No, no, I want to do it myself!”

“The thing you saw last time at my place, I’ll give you a copy!”

“This…”

“Three of them!”

“Deal!”

The two of them glanced at each other and then looked at Qin Yu, their smiles curving up in an ice-cold smirk.

And similar transactions were happening all over. Xu Shi was the most exaggerated; he already came to an agreement with three others.

In other words, as long as things went smoothly, he would be able to challenge Qin Yu four times! Of course, the premise was that Qin Yu had to resist the beatings, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to last and would be knocked to the ground unconscious.

He had to grasp this chance!

If he missed out on such a good opportunity, he would regret it for the rest of his life!

“The Dragon Saint has arrived!”

The people in the grand hall hurriedly stopped talking. They straightened themselves and bowed with deep respect, “We greet the Dragon Saint!”

Bang –

With a dull ringing sound, the Dragon Saint’s dignified voice rang out, “Mm. All of you may rise.”

Qin Yu looked up to see a giant crystal wall which happened to fall on the seat of honor in the grand hall. He had seen this before. Thanks to Peachy, he had gone straight to the sea trench where the Dragon Saint resided, and this was what he had seen.

However, to still bring this crystal wall with him during the longevity banquet, the Dragon Saint’s character was something else.

Could it be that he had some kind of problem and didn’t want others to see his true appearance? Inexplicably, Qin Yu thought back to the little claw mark he saw when he first received the invitation.

Mm…am I tired of living or something? I even dare to guess the little secrets of a True Saint? Hurry up and stop it!

As Qin Yu was about to look away, the giant eyes within the crystal wall suddenly turned. He froze where he stood.

He didn’t know whether it was an illusion, but Qin Yu felt as if the Dragon Saint glanced at him. He just had a thought, but even that had been sensed? The perception of a True Saint was too terrifying!

Qin Yu quickly restrained his thoughts and respectfully lowered his head, doing his best to appear submissive and awed.

He couldn’t provoke him!

The Dragon Saint’s dignified voice continued to ring out, “Today is my longevity feast, so eat well and drink well so that when you go back, those old things don’t say that I have been too harsh to you juniors. My East Sea has always been generous to others and you cannot trust outside rumors. That is everything. So, let the feast begin!”

The lips of countless cultivators in the hall twitched. They thought that they really couldn’t reply to these words.

Who in the world didn’t know that even though you are a true dragon, you are actually inherently greedy for wealth, known as the pinnacle of miserliness?

If it weren’t for this, you wouldn’t have fought with the Spring Master over a single peach. In the end, you were ruthlessly punched away and blackmailed for healing expenses that were deducted from the cost of buying the peach.

So when they heard the Lord Dragon Saint say this, they thought it was hilarious. But no matter how laughable it was, they could only hold themselves back.

The utensils of the East Sea longevity feast were truly precious. Even a casual dish or bowl was enough to praise for a lifetime.

But the things within…how to say, they were definitely good things, but they still had to be divided into different levels.

The solemn East Sea Dragon Saint, someone who stood near the peak of the vast brightness, held a longevity feast with great fanfare and was entertaining guests with these things?

Shabby, it was just too shabby!

But thinking about it, today was the East Sea Dragon Saint’s longevity feast so everyone could understand it. On the surface, they joyously ate and toasted each other, thanking the Dragon Saint for his gracious hospitality.

In short, all their acting skills were on full display.

In contrast to Peachy’s slow and deliberate orderliness, Qin Yu was surprisingly fast. He neatly and quickly finished off the wine and food on his table until most of it was in his stomach. Then, after finishing his wine cup, he gently placed it back on the table and stood up, whispering a few words into Peachy’s ear.

She furrowed her eyebrows and then nodded once.

Qin Yu was overjoyed. He cupped his hands together and said, “Thank you, senior-apprentice sister.”

He turned and left!

What nonsense, today’s longevity feast was clearly a slaughter feast and he was the dish that everyone wanted to try.

If he didn’t try to flee as soon as possible despite being well aware of his situation, wouldn’t he be stupid?

Leave, he had to leave!

If I’m not here, even if you want to do something you won’t be able to find a target.
