Chapter 371: Foolish Spendthrift No.1 (3)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At this moment, it was as if all the ships on the river had disappeared, leaving only this person in the world.

Countless people at the jetty were shocked to the extreme. They were rooted on the spot as they stared at the person walking on the river, one step after another.

At this moment, this figure happened to walk to the side of the Ye family’s merchant ship. It was quite close, and one could already see this person’s appearance clearly from the ship.

Ye Shunzhong jolted and came back to his senses. Without another word, he bowed on the ship before speaking respectfully and excitedly,

“How lucky am I to be able to see your immortal appearance! Dear Immortal, please accept my bow!”

When Zhou Jing heard someone speak, he turned to look at the ship beside him. He immediately saw Ye Shunzhong, who was poking his head out from the side of the ship. It was obvious that this man was from a rich family.

With a thought, he suddenly rode the wind and floated into the air.

Under the gazes of everyone, he flew up to the Ye Family’s merchant ship.

Ye Shunzhong and the others were shocked and hurriedly knelt down, shouting that they had witnessed an immortal.

“It’s just some divine ability. There’s no need to make a fuss. I’m not an immortal. Everyone, there’s no need to bow.”

Zhou Jing replied casually, putting on an indifferent attitude.

These people were dressed luxuriously, signifying they were either rich or of noble birth. This time, he was not as amiable as he was when facing the villagers. Instead, he assumed a posture like an ascetic.

Only after hearing this did Ye Shunzhong and the others dared to straighten their backs. They also saw Zhou Jing’s incongruous appearance, causing some surprise, but they did not dare to show it at all.

Zhou Jing placed his hands behind his back and sized up Ye Shunzhong before asking,

“Who are you?”

Ye Shunzhong did not know what Zhou Jing meant, but he did not dare to be negligent. He mustered his courage and cupped his hands in greeting.

“This one’s called Ye Shunzhong. When I saw the expert’s immortal methods, I was momentarily tempted and could not help but speak… May I know the expert’s name?”

“I’m Ling Fengzi.”

Zhou Jing reported his alias and pretended to be unfathomable as he slowly spoke,

“Since you have the guts to talk to me, let me respond by giving you a corresponding chance at fate.”

Ye Shunzhong was stunned for a moment before he was overjoyed.

This immortal-like figure actually said that he wanted to give him a chance to respond to fate? Could it be that he had truly met with a deity and obtained a fortuitous encounter like in the folk novels?!

Without waiting for Ye Shunzhong to ask in detail, Zhou Jing cooly spoke in pretense,

“I’ll be staying in Ning Tian Prefecture for a few days to search for the Heavenly Secrets. Since we’re fated, I’ll temporarily stay at your house and let you handle all the trivial matters for me… Do you want this fate or not?”

These words were extremely shameless. It was equivalent to trying to reel in a foolish spendthrift. Not only did he ask the other party to spend money to entertain him, but he also said that this opportunity was given to him…

However, Zhou Jing did not blush at all.

If an ordinary person said that, they might have been beaten up.

However, when he displayed his divine methods just now, he had already suppressed the rich family on this ship. Now, his pretentious behavior made it even more difficult for others to figure out his background.

Moreover, he was not completely spouting nonsense.

He had deliberately put on a show of “walking over the river” on the bustling ferry. With so many witnesses, his reputation would definitely spread throughout Ning Tian Prefecture in an extremely short period of time.

If a mysterious person suspected to be a deity went to live in someone’s house, under the cultural background of the Great Xia Dynasty, he could bring this person many invisible values such as reputation and influence.

Zhou Jing had specially boarded the ship because he planned to hook up with a rich family first. While solving the problem of his identity, he would also use this as a springboard to get to know more high-ranking officials and nobles to gain a foothold in the city.

If he succeeded, this person would also be able to obtain countless benefits. Then, the “fate” that he mentioned today would be true.

Ye Shunzhong really bought his scam. Hearing this, he hurriedly agreed.

“It’s the Ye family’s honor that the expert is willing to temporarily stay!”

He only felt that this person who called himself Ling Fengzi was extremely mysterious. Moreover, the so-called “finding the heavenly secrets” that this person vaguely revealed also made him extremely interested. His heart itched, but he did not dare to interrogate the other party. He could only hold it in and imagine what sort of divine techniques this man would perform.

It was not that Ye Shunzhong did not have any doubts, but when he thought of the scene of Zhou Jing stepping on the river and riding the wind just now, he felt that it was better to believe it for the sake of his sanity.

If he agreed, he would at most spend some money. Even if this person was a swindler, so what if he had another person to freeload off? Not to mention one person, he would not even blink if a hundred people came to eat and drink for free.

His Ye family did not have much else, but money was the one thing they did not lack!

If this person really had a huge background, he would have struck gold. By then, he would definitely regret pushing the opportunity out now in the future.

Ye Shunzhong had calculated very clearly, so he naturally would not reject Zhou Jing’s seemingly excessive request.

Seeing this, the corners of Zhou Jing’s mouth curled up, but it quickly disappeared.

He deliberately did not respond with any gratitude. He only nodded indifferently and continued to slowly speak,

“That’s good. The ship hasn’t entered the port yet, so tell me about your Ye family.”
