Chapter 160 Come on, let's fool each other!
"Haha, so you and my sister came here because of my five senior brothers."
No wonder my sister is so generous to me, willing to spend so much money to treat us!
Shen Rugo laughed heartily.
Her words stunned those who disliked Shen Rugo. They realized that the master and disciple's willingness to part with so much was not purely out of kindness, but for another purpose.
"Sister Shen Rugo, you're overthinking it."
I didn't recognize you at first; I only realized it when other guests mentioned it.
But no matter who you are, I will treat you!
Wu Xuemei blushed immediately.
"Is Sister Xuemei really that generous? How about we settle all the bills for all the guests here today?"
Shen Rugo suddenly raised her voice again and looked at the others.
That little bitch, I must kill her, I must kill her! She's been humiliating me and undermining me all along.
Wu Xuemei was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
Sure enough, Shen Rugo's shout drew the attention of many people, who were eager to try it themselves.
After all, the food, drink, and wine at Wangji Hotel are quite expensive, even for a casual meal.
"You're quite the sharp-tongued kid."
However, we didn't bring many spirit stones with us this time. If we really invited so many friends, we might not even have enough money for the return trip.
Besides, helping the poor is our inherent nature.
So many friends can afford to dine at Wangji Hotel; they're all well-off and influential people, and none of them would let someone else pay the bill.
Wu Yuanshan couldn't help but speak up.
He couldn't let Wu Xuemei be fooled by Shen Rugo any longer. If he really settled the accounts of so many people, it would cost at least several million low-grade spirit stones.
Upon hearing this, those who were eager to try immediately sat down again.
As expected, experience counts; this old devil turned the tide with just a casual remark.
Shen Rugo sneered inwardly, but had to say aloud, "I was genuinely grateful to Sister Xuemei for treating us to dinner. But what you said, senior, has left me feeling like I have a fishbone stuck in my throat."
It turns out that Sister Xuemei's generosity and hospitality were just a facade; she actually had ulterior motives and came specifically to target us!
When it comes to sharp tongues, Shen Rugo has never been afraid of anyone.
She has won first place in debate competitions more than once.
"Sister Shen Rugo, what you said really makes me blush."
I won't hide it anymore. To be honest, we came here this time specifically for you and your senior brothers.
Your senior brothers are renowned for their exceptional talent; all of them are at the Golden Core stage before the age of twenty.
Within a radius of 200,000 li, everyone knows them. I yearn for them and hope to have the opportunity to meet them and witness their splendor.
"Let's not talk about food for now. Sister Shen Rugo, could you introduce me to your senior brothers so I can pay my respects?"
Knowing that Shen Rugo was eloquent, Wu Xuemei simply cut straight to the point.
She wanted to find out the specific details about Xiao Changkong and the others from Shen Rugo.
After all these days, they had come to understand that the personal disciple of the Star Palace Master could not easily leave the mountain.
Let's get down to business.
Shen Rugo nodded inwardly.
However, we must make them give up the idea of looking for Xiao Changkong and his group as soon as possible, at least not for the next few years.
This would allow time for the senior brothers to properly refine their skills and reach the Nascent Soul stage, thus utterly disheartening the evil father and daughter.
"Sister Xuemei, I sigh when I think about this."
I even regret now that I've become the sect leader's disciple.
Shen Rugo, who was enjoying her meal, suddenly turned pale.
"Sister Shen Rugo, what do you mean by that?"
"Well, let's not talk about it!"
"Sister Shen Rugo, you're not deliberately making excuses to avoid introducing me to your senior brothers, are you?"
"Sister Xuemei, what are you thinking?"
You're such a beautiful woman, my senior brothers would definitely like you. How could I not introduce you to them?
However, our sect leader has special requirements for us, his personal disciples!
Shen Rugo sighed again as she finished speaking.
"Isn't that a good thing? Why are you sighing?"
"Good news, sister. Do you know that once you become the sect leader's master, no matter who it is, you must cultivate on your own mountain. You are not allowed to leave the inner sect, let alone the Star Palace."
Otherwise, it would be a violation of the rules and would be subject to severe punishment.
One offense will result in severe punishment, two offenses in even more severe punishment, three offenses in even more severe punishment, and if there are four offenses, their cultivation will be completely destroyed, their memories erased, and they will be expelled from the sect!
"Your sect actually has such a rule? That's too harsh!"
Wu Xuemei immediately screamed!
"Yes, Sister Xuemei, tell me, aren't we miserable and tragic?"
I was overjoyed to have become the sect leader's disciple.
But after I finished paying my respects, he called me to the statues of our ancestors, explained the rules, and made me swear an oath to Heaven that I would never break them.
"You actually have to make a vow to the Heavenly Dao? Are your senior brothers the same?"
"Of course it's the same. This is a standard regulation, it's not targeting me!"
"In that case, your senior brothers won't be able to come down the mountain at all, and I won't be able to pay my respects?"
"That's exactly why I sighed!"
"But that's not right. If there are such strict rules and you've sworn an oath to Heaven, then why are you able to escape and be eating and drinking like this?"
Wu Xuemei suddenly stared at Shen Rugo, a cold smile playing on her lips.
I almost got fooled by Shen Rugo.
"Sister Xuemei, I really regret telling you this."
"This is terrible! If this gets back to the sect leader, I'll be thrown into Black Wind Pass for at least a month. It's a living hell; the cold wind howls and cuts to the bone."
Shen Rugo looked around in panic, her face full of regret.
"You snuck out, didn't your sect leader know?"
"Of course I snuck out."
The sect leader was about to break through to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm. After taking me in, he didn't have time to do anything for me before he went into seclusion.
I have a gluttonous nature, and knowing I'd never have the chance to go out and feast again, I begged this senior uncle to help me sneak away.
"Did you sneak out, or did your senior uncle bring you out?"
Wu Xuemei naturally didn't believe it and looked at Qinghe Daoren again.
Qinghe Daoist nodded in agreement, slurped down another cup of monkey wine, and grinned at him.
"Sister Xuemei, don't laugh at me, but my uncle is a drunkard who hasn't had a drink in years."
So whenever I mention treating him to meat and drinks, he doesn't care about anything else.
And so, we arrived here without anyone noticing.
As Shen Rugo spoke, she made a face.
Qinghe Daoist also made a face, while putting a finger to his lips. This was a clear message to Wu Xuemei not to spread the word, or Shen Rugo would be in serious trouble.
"So that's it."
Wu Xuemei frowned slightly.
Actually, they had inquired about this matter with other disciples of the Star Palace, and they knew that such a rule existed, but they didn't expect it to be so strict.
"So, Sister Xuemei, it's absolutely impossible for you to see my senior brothers!"
"Sister Shen Rugo, I really admire your senior brothers. Could you help me by inviting them out, like you did, to sneak out? I'll definitely treat them to a good meal, and it will be twice as much as you do, no, three times as much! Of course, you'll be included too!"
Wu Xuemei suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously.
You vixen, you're still trying to fool me!
Shen Rugo sneered inwardly, shaking her head repeatedly and saying, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, Sister Xuemei, don't even dream about it!"
