Chapter 205 - Mr. Fang’s Second-Hand Smoke

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

The word ‘Saint’ in the name of the Three Saint Gates was given to them by others.

The three big factions were the Taixi Faction, the Xuanzhong Manor, and Yuxu Mountain. They had a long history on this land, and no other forces were their match.

The three forces lived in seclusion and only showed their faces in the Cultivation Realm Conference which was held every 30 years, but their strengths were greater than that of any other forces!

It was why people called them ‘Saints’.

Feng Xi was only a first-generation disciple of the Taixi Faction. Although he was in the same generation as the Faction Master, he was an ordinary disciple.

However, this was enough for him to travel the world with honor. Besides, he had a supreme treasure on him. Even if the retired grand elders of the forces in Wuwei Daoist Alliance were here, they wouldn’t feel strange listening to Feng Xi, let alone the Faction Masters and Palace Masters.

As a disciple of the Taixi Faction, he was very confident of himself!

“Is there such a place?!” A trace of cold light appeared in Feng Xi’s narrowed eyes.

He waved his hand, and the door was supposed to open!

However, nothing happened!

Huo Chong froze. Then, he quickly glanced at Feng Xi and walked up to push open the door!

Was that just an accident? Feng Xi walked into the shop, and his gaze remained cold and distant.

Soon, he saw a group of people standing before the counter.

He recognized some of them since he had seen them at the last Cultivation Realm Conference, such as Xue Daolv, the Liuyun Daoist Palace Master, and Ye Songtao, the Cloud Ocean Faction Master.

“Sir! I want to enter the Counter Strike team competition!” Ye Songtao led his disciples and daughter, Ye Xiaoye, to register for the competition.

All the people were busy with the registration, and no one spared a glance at Huo Chong or Feng Xi.

It was probably the first time that a member of the Three Saint Gates got ignored outside of their forces!

“Ms. Feng…” Seeing the people standing around the counter and ignoring them, Huo Chong said indignantly, “These guys are disregarding you!”

“It doesn’t matter.” Feng Xi looked indifferent. “They will change their minds soon.”

A breeze blew into the shop through the open door, and this young man who was wearing a white robe with golden trim emitted an indescribable aura. It seemed like the sunlight focused on him, creating a layer of golden light around him and giving people the illusion that he was an immortal.

“Ugh?” Fang Qi was explaining the rules of the competition when all of them turned their attention away from him suddenly.

Immediately, he looked over and saw a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes standing at the door. The sunshine shone into the shop from his behind, giving him a golden aura and making him look like an immortal who descended from heaven!

Anyone who saw him would feel stunned!

“He’s so powerful!” Sitting beside Fang Qi, Jiang Xiaoyue exclaimed and stared at the man without blinking. Before she could finish her sentence, someone covered her eyes.

“This is a cultivation method of the Taixi Faction of the Three Saint Gates, and it is called Grandeur!” Xue Daolv whispered, “It can absorb people’s minds and is very powerful!”

As the Liuyun Daoist Palace Master, he wasn’t affected, but his expression turned grim. “It doesn’t bode well that the people from the Three Saints Gate came here in person…”

“What Three Saint Gates?” Fang Qi pointed at the immortal-like young man and asked, “Do you mean this egoist who wants all the attention?”

Hearing Fang Qi’s words, the shop suddenly fell silent.

Then, Fang Qi dug out a cigarette box from his pocket and lit one of the special cigarettes that the System produced.

TL Note: Smoking is bad. Don’t smoke unless you have the cigarettes especially made by the System.

He inhaled lightly, and the front end of the cigarette turned red.

He blew out the smoke, and the people before the counter seemed to smell an elegant fragrance of tobacco. Many of them had been staring at the immortal-looking young man in a daze, but now they shivered and woke up!

In contrast, Fang Qi now seemed to be engulfed in a cloud of celestial smoke!

“It’s fine! It’s fine!” Fang Qi waved his hand and took a whiff. “Let’s continue with the rules of the competition.”

The two new-comers were dumbfounded.

“Mr. Feng…” Huo Chong said, “They are still ignoring us. Should I…”

“No!” As a disciple of the Taixi Faction, Feng Xi would feel ashamed if he needed Huo Chong’s help.

His squinted eyes opened slowly, and an intense light shot out from his eyes!

The people couldn’t help looking toward him again. Looking at his bright and dazzling eyes, they had the sudden urge to submit to him!

Then, a puff of smoke came up!

The thick smoke almost formed a wall.

“Now, I’ll explain the rules for the 1 vs 1 competition for Diablo 2…” Fang Qi continued.

Huo Chong coughed, and so did Feng Xi.

Feng Xi stopped coughing after a while, and his face twitched. He is indeed not an ordinary man, and he dares to challenge our Three Saint Gates!

“Mr. Feng!” Huo Chong said, “It seems that they are also having a competition! I took a look and found that the ranking system is almost the same as that of the Cultivation Realm Conference! It is a blatant challenge to you and your faction!”

“I was wondering how a small shop could control so many cultivators of the Wuwei Daoist Alliance.” Feng Xi sneered and said, “It seems that it has its ways. By promising them rewards, it persuaded them to give up entering the Cultivation Realm Conference! Very smart!”

He walked to the front of the crowd and squeezed to stand before the counter, and he said coldly, “Is this the shop that held back the cultivators of the Wuwei Daoist Alliance? Are you purposefully sabotaging the Cultivation Realm Conference?”

“Cultivation Realm Conference?” Fang Qi glanced around in confusion. “What’s that?”

“Don’t play dumb!” Huo Chong held a grudge against this shop ever since he failed the boycotting efforts. Happy that the Three Saint Gates was behind him, he accused Fang Qi, “Your small shop copied the format of the Cultivation Realm Conference and is holding a competition as well to interfere with it. Do you still want to claim that you don’t know anything about it, Mr. Fang? In my opinion, you have your own agenda, right? Mr. Fang?” Huo Chong sneered and said.

Then, he glanced at the small black board in disdain. “What are these rewards? How can they compare with the rewards offered by the Three Saint Gates?”

Fang Qi was at a loss for words. Looking at the thin cultivator who was jumping in front of him, he said impatiently, “Who is this moron? Do you two want to cause trouble?”

Feng Xi’s face turned cold since no one ever dared to speak to him like this. After all, he was from the Taixi Faction.

“Are you the owner of this shop?” He said, “Although I don’t know why you are so bold to do this, I advise you to cancel this competition. Then, I won’t make things difficult to you.” After all, Feng Xi thought that it was not necessary to deal with an ant, even if this ant caused some trouble for them.

They would be satisfied if the Cultivation Realm Competition could go on successfully.
