Chapter 198: 198: Are You Even Worthy of My Brother’s Apology?
It was the largest tavern in the whole of Mad Demon City. While other taverns only occupied a single building, this one occupied several buildings, with many private dining areas and courtyards in the back, covering a substantial area.
It had a huge capacity but, more exaggeratedly, the tavern was crowded with people!
Luckily, it was not quite evening yet, which was when the crowd was about to reach its peak. The two of them managed to find a spot on the third floor.
However, their surroundings were already bustling with all kinds of people and noise.
“All the signature dishes, one serving of each, and add a braised Long Lake fish, tangy crystal meat, oh, and one serving of jade pearl shrimp too.”
AnRan behaved extravagantly, ordering an entire table full of dishes with a wave of his hand.
At first, Jiang Xiaobai thought these dishes were too much and could not be all stuffed in, but he was unexpectedly surprised by the unique taste and excellent texture, making him want to eat more.
Subsequently, the two of them began to heartily enjoy their meal. With good food and wine, they were very comfortable.
As time passed, the restaurant became more crowded. At some point, the people who were sitting next to Jiang Xiaobai’s table had left, and another group arrived, consisting of seven men and women.
All seven were dressed in the same uniform, suggesting they might belong to some kind of rank or martial art school.
“It’s really such a huge city. Everywhere you turn, you can see disciples of sects.” Jiang Xiaobai commented while eating.
AnRan nodded, “The group sitting over there, I recognize their uniforms not as those of a sect but as disciples from an academy.”
“Oh? What do you mean by disciples from an academy?” Jiang Xiaobai was curious, he hadn’t heard of this before.
“The academy is organized by the Thousand Yuan Dynasty and serves as a power backup for the dynasty. It nurtures new bloodlines to supplement the dynasty.”
AnRan elaborated, “Of course, not all academies are the same. I know of four academies under the dynasty. Judging by their outfits, they are from Wuhai Academy, which ranks second among the four.”
“However, they must be outer courtyard disciples. Their blue dolphinfish uniform with a green dragon pattern on the cuffs indicates this.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded and then began asking AnRan more about these academies. A fledgeling idea was sprouting in his mind, and he needed more information to judge whether it was feasible.
It turned out, AnRan knew quite a bit about the academies.
“Take Wuhai Academy for instance, they currently rank second, thus they enjoy many resources and privileges. And since their ranking has been constantly high, the students of Wuhai Academy are rather boastful.”
“As it happens, Wuhai Academy is located just outside Mad Demon City, so you can often see their students here.
Whilst explaining, AnRan suddenly froze and looked sharply at Jiang Xiaobai.
“Boss, you’re not planning…”
“Yep, we just check out the situation, after all, they’re people of the dynasty, and the dynasty is my enemy. It’s normal to confront them.”
Jiang Xiaobai smiled faintly, “After dinner today, I take rest. Tomorrow, I’ll spread the news. Then, I want to see how the Thousand Yuan Dynasty plans to deal with me!”
“Alrizht then, I’ll follow Boss’s arrangement. As long as I can cause a ruckus with you, that’s enough!” AnRan chuckled merrily.
The two continued to drink merrily, completely at ease.
Just then, a female disciple from Wuhai Academy, who was next to their table, got unstable due to her drunkenness. She accidentally brushed her arm against AnRan’s back.
At once, the woman stood up furiously and emptied her glass of wine on AnRan’s head.
AnRan, who was drenched from head to toe, subconsciously stood up and looked over.
At that moment, his head was topped with a face that was altered to look hideous — it was AnRan’s prank. Not only was the face covered with acne, but the facial features were also inordinately arranged, making him look utterly repulsive.
As a result, the moment the female disciple saw AnRan’s face, she burst into tears from the shock!
“Insolent, what the hell are you doing!”
“Dare to touch the disciples from my Wuhai Academy, are you seeking death!”
“Damn, you even made my junior sister cry. Aren’t you going to kneel down and apologize? Don’t you know who we are?”
The disciples from the academy slammed the table and stood up, all of them shouting angrily at AnRan.
At this point, AnRan was quite pissed off as well. He was sitting there, minding his own business, and not only did they shower him in wine but they also wanted him to kneel and apologize?
Was there such a rule on earth?
“I didn’t do anything. It was your so-called junior sister who spilled wine all over me!” AnRan shouted back.
“Bullshit, didn’t you just take the advantage of my junior sister because she’s beautiful? Kneel down and apologize now, otherwise, we won’t let this go!” the leading disciple shouted, his tone full of scorn and indifference.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded slightly. He had just been thinking about how to cause a commotion at Wuhai Academy, and now they’d delivered themselves to his doorstep.
“My brother already said he did nothing. It was merely an accident caused by your tipsy junior sister.” Jiang Xiaobai said indifferently.
“Nonsense! ”
The female disciple cried out hurriedly, “I know the difference between me bumping into someone and someone else touching me!”
“I only drank one glass of wine, I had barely sat down for a while. Even if I couldn’t hold my drink, it wouldn’t have affected me this quickly!”
“You heard it. Now quickly kneel down, chop off the hand that you touched her with, beg for forgiveness from my junior sister, or else, don’t think about leaving this tavern today!” The leading male disciple shouted, releasing his cultivation aura.
AnRan was about to lose his patience and was about to speak, when Jiang Xiaobai slowly rose.
He walked calmly up to the male disciple, his expression indifferent.
“My brother was sitting over there without doing anything, where does the accusation of behaving improperly toward your junior sister come from?
“I’ve yet to ask your junior sister to apologize to my brother.. What makes you think he should apologize to her?”
