Yang Zhen didn’t pay attention to the gazes around him. He looked up at Hua Youyue. When he didn’t understand something, he made it a point to learn, it was his principle in life. So, despite not being a young successful person on the Blue Planet, he was still doing pretty well, having learned a plethora of disparate knowledge.
Hua Youyue knew that Yang Zhen didn’t understand the rules here, which was why she tried to make him let her go first. However, when Yang Zhen said ladies first, Hua Youyue was still surprised. She didn’t expect Yang Zhen to have such a genteel side to him.
Under Yang Zhen’s watchful eyes, Hua Youyue lightly lifted her hand and picked a thumb-sized jade box from the wooden crate. She opened it amidst the sea of focused gazes.
“Ah!”
Hua Youyue suddenly exclaimed, startling Yang Zhen. He was taken aback, thinking that danger could befall even when drawing a raffle.
The next moment, Hua Youyue leaped with joy and placed a red jade carp in Yang Zhen’s hand, exclaiming happily, “A Koi fish! I got the Koi fish! Yang Zhen, I got the Koi fish!”
Watching Hua Youyue cheer like a little girl, Yang Zhen was dumbfounded.
Koi fish?
My goodness, could it be that the owner of Flower Moon Pavilion had also traversed to this world, even creating Koi fish?
Indeed, Hua Youyue began to happily explain about the Koi fish to Yang Zhen.
It was one of the highest honors of Flower Moon Pavilion, with the chances of getting it being extremely slim, it could only be drawn by one person each day. However, anyone who draws this Koi fish could not only enjoy food and drinks at Flower Moon Pavilion for the day but also ask Flower Moon Pavilion to solve a problem for them. Any problem. As long as Flower Moon Pavilion could solve it, it would not be a problem.
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen was taken aback, he also understood the value of Flower Moon Pavilion’s existence.
It seemed to be similar to an intelligence agency, yet a little different. The practitioners who come here to eat, drink and have fun could participate in the lottery. The jade boxes they drew contained problems, and Flower Moon Pavilion would determine the discount for the person who drew the box based on the difficulty of the problem.
In other words, if they drew a very difficult condition and helped Flower Moon Pavilion solve it, they could freeload for a day!
This was a method of collecting various types of knowledge and solutions to problems, and some practitioners would come to Flower Moon Pavilion every day to draw conditions to solve their difficulties. As long as they could draw the Koi fish, any problem they faced could be solved by Flower Moon Pavilion.
Upon this realization, Yang Zhen could not help but highly admire the owner of Flower Moon Pavilion. An establishment like this was bound to succeed, because here, one could almost find the answer to any question. As long as there was a constant stream of customers, there would be a constant stream of knowledge, and even various resources!
What a talent!
In a brief moment, Yang Zhen couldn’t count how many times he had complimented the owner of Flower Moon Pavilion.
With a face full of delight, Yan’er looked at Hua Youyue and sincerely remarked, “Congratulations to the Flower Tower Master for drawing today’s Koi fish. Do you plan to sell it or keep it for personal use?”
“Can this thing be sold?” asked Yang Zhen, taken aback.
What a talent indeed!
Hua Youyue laughed and said, “Of course, it can. The Koi fish can only be used on the same day and becomes void the next day. So, if there is no trouble in the near future, it can be sold.”
Yang Zhen understood, and asked, “What do you plan to do?”
Hua Youyue inquired, “Do you have any difficulties?”
Yang Zhen shook his head and smirked, “Do you think someone as charming and knowledgeable about the world like me, the little prince of answering questions in the cultivation world, would face any difficulties?”
Hua Youyue smiled, ignored Yang Zhen’s words, and announced, “We will keep it!”
As soon as she said this, there were sounds of regret all around. They couldn’t influence the decision of the person who had drawn the Koi fish, which was one of the rules of Flower Moon Pavilion.
“Hmph!”
A light snort suddenly rang out, sounding especially harsh in the silence.
Yang Zhen turned his head and saw a young man with a profound aura and a cold expression at the next table, looking at him with disdain.
“What are you looking at? Do you believe I’ll beat you to death if you keep staring?”
“You!” Luo Wuchen looked confounded and enraged. He never expected Yang Zhen to be so brash.
The crowd around them also gasped, looking at Yang Zhen with shocked faces.
“Idiot!” Yang Zhen sneered. Among those who had ridiculed him earlier, this man’s laughter was the most annoying, and now he was acting weird. He was either a genius or had problems.
In fact, in Yang Zhen’s view, all geniuses have problems. They always acted as if they were better than everyone else. They looked down on others with their noses in the air!
At this point, Yan’er came to Yang Zhen’s side, smiling, she said, “It’s your turn, sir!”
“Am I doing another draw?” Yang Zhen froze, looking at Hua Youyue.
Hua Youyue calmly glanced at the frazzled Luo Wuchen, smiled and told Yang
Zhen, “Of course you have to draw. The koi is mine!”
Yang Zhen felt as if a crazed llama was charging through his heart. This koi was more valuable than he thought, even the thick-browed Hua Youyue started acting cheeky with excitement.
If I have to draw, so be it!
Yang Zhen spat into his hand, rubbed his palms together, and with a serious face, reached into the box again!
Ugh!
Luo Wuchen, who had just taken a bite of his food, almost spit it out. His face changing constantly, he fixed his eyes on Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen blinked, looking completely innocent.
So wicked! Clearly, Yang Zhen did that on purpose. Everyone around wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to. They watched in apprehension as the young man’s face turned livid.
“This bumpkin, he dared to offend the heir of the Tianqing Blessed Land?” “Ignorance truly is bliss. Even the tower master of Changyue has to give face to those inheriting the Cave Heaven Blessed Lands. Yang Zhen publicly provokes Luo Wuchen. This is the first time I’ve seen such a reckless man.”
As the crowd was discussing, Yang Zhen’s hand was rummaging inside the box. Everyone was getting impatient when he slowly drew out his arm.
Seeing the jade box in Yang Zhen’s hand, everyone craned their necks to get a better look.
After opening the box, Yang Zhen leisurely read out the content, “How to speed up the pace of cultivation to the fastest. What a lousy question!”
The methods of cultivation differ from person to person. How can one globally discuss increasing the pace to the maximum?
As expected, Yang Zhen glanced at the bottom of the question, a discount of 90%.
So it was just a 90% discount question. This was clearly a freebie. Yang Zhen pondered; he could simply answer with something off the top of his head. As Yang Zhen was considering how to bluff his way out of this, Luo Wuchen suddenly chuckled, and, as if interested, put down his chopsticks.
The crowd around him was surprised and immediately got excited.
“It seems like Master Luo Wuchen is about to spoil the show!”
“Master Luo has an amazing cultivation speed, naturally he has his own set of methods. He’s most suited to debunk Yang Zhen’s answer. Who would have thought Yang Zhen would be so unlucky that it would be impossible for him to fulfill even such simple conditions.”
“That’s what he gets for being so arrogant and daring to offend Master Luo.”
Hearing the discussions around him, Yang Zhen looked up at Yan’er and asked, “Can… can one sabotage the answer to a question?”
“Yes!” Yan’er’s answer was quite standard, “In order to get the best solution, the onlookers have the right to rebut. If the rebuttal is successful, the person answering the question will be deemed to have failed, and the reward will be transferred to the other party.”
“Oh!” Yang Zhen nodded, asking, “How would they sabotage?”
Just as Yan’er was about to answer, Luo Wuchen suddenly sneered, stood up, and said, “You just have to answer!”
“Is that so?” Yang Zhen blinked at Yan’er.
Yan’er chuckled and nodded, saying, “Yes, sir!”
Hua Youyue on the opposite side looked at Yang Zhen’s expression, showing a strange look. He looked at Luo Wuchen with a hint of pity.
With a light cough, Yang Zhen drew everyone’s attention.
“To cultivate at the fastest speed isn’t it simple… just eat, eat, and eat!”
The crowd:
Luo Wuchen:”???”
