Chapter 2239 Handsome Is A Capability! An Entertainment!
"Universe explorer!"
The revelation of w.a.n.g Teng"s ident.i.ty as a universe explorer left everyone around him astonished.
Universe explorers were exceptionally rare individuals, known for their extensive knowledge, rich experiences, and often possessing impressive skills. Their presence always attracted attention due to the mysteries they encountered while traveling through the vastness of the cosmos.
Thus, the appearance of a universe explorer naturally attracted their attention.
In response to the inquiry from Shouzang Caiyun, w.a.n.g Teng didn"t directly answer but instead mentioned casually, "I happened to pa.s.s by the Five Burial Stars and heard that a councilor from the Academy Arbitration a.s.sociation was about to arrive. So, I decided to take a look."
Shouzang Caiyun and Yizang Xinnuo exchanged a glance, smiling as they continued the conversation. "That"s quite a coincidence. The councilor should be arriving in the next few days."
"Really? It seems like I timed my visit perfectly," w.a.n.g Teng replied with a smile.
"You should have heard our names just now. May we know what"s your name?" Yizang Xinnuo asked.
"My name is Han Zhu!" w.a.n.g Teng smiled and used his senior"s name.
"Han Zhu!" Yizang Xinnuo repeated his name, nodded slightly, and smiled. "We"ve always been curious about universe explorers. Can you share with us some of the magical places you"ve visited? We"d love to broaden our horizons."
"If you beautiful ladies are interested, I have no objections," w.a.n.g Teng smiled and nodded, beginning to recount stories.
He had read about numerous peculiar and fantastical planets in the explorer"s diary. Using these stories to captivate the interest of these two women was still possible.
The two ladies listened with great interest. Even the young martial warriors around, who were initially impatient, quieted down.
Tracy, too, looked at w.a.n.g Teng with a mix of curiosity and disbelief. Could it be that the young man before her was truly a universe explorer?
For a moment, the restaurant was filled only with the unhurried and steady voice of w.a.n.g Teng"s storytelling.
After a considerable amount of time, the delightful feast in front of w.a.n.g Teng had been consumed, and he ceased his narration with a smile. "Let"s stop here for today. As a newcomer, I am a bit tired and need some rest."
"Oh… sure!" Yizang Xinnuo snapped back to reality. She looked at w.a.n.g Teng with a slightly changed gaze, expressing her amazement. "I didn"t expect Brother Han to be so young and have traveled to so many places."
"The vastness of the cosmos is truly enchanting. Ironically, we call ourselves the pride of the heavens, yet we haven"t even ventured beyond the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain," Shouzang Caiyun said, putting away her playful smile and shaking her head with emotion.
At this moment, their suspicions about w.a.n.g Teng had mostly dissipated. It was said that the councilor was a student of Stellar Academies. How could he be a universe explorer with such profound knowledge? The two were entirely different.
"You flatter me. The cosmos is vast, and I"ve merely explored a small fraction of it," w.a.n.g Teng said modestly.
"Brother Han is too modest," Yizang Xinnuo smiled faintly, stood up, and said, "Since Brother Han is a newcomer here, we won"t disturb you any longer. If you need anything, feel free to contact me. Here is my contact information."
She opened her wrist.w.a.tch and looked at w.a.n.g Teng with a smile.
w.a.n.g Teng didn"t hesitate. He had Round Ball switch to another hidden ident.i.ty account in the virtual universe and exchanged contact information with Yizang Xinnuo.
Although it was an unregistered account, outsiders wouldn"t notice anything unusual and would a.s.sume it was his real ident.i.ty.
Yizang Xinnuo glanced at the account, and the last trace of doubt in her heart disappeared. The person in front of her was not the councilor.
If it were a councilor of the Academy Arbitration a.s.sociation, the account would display the real name—w.a.n.g Teng!
They had already obtained w.a.n.g Teng"s information and were quite familiar with his name.
Of course, he could hide his name but w.a.n.g Teng"s account was an unregistered resident. He could change his name at any time so he didn"t plan to hide it.
If he purposely hid it, it would arouse suspicion.
"If Brother Han has any matters, feel free to reach out to me," Shouzang Caiyun similarly exchanged contact information with w.a.n.g Teng, smiling as she spoke.
"Thank you both, beautiful ladies." w.a.n.g Teng stood up, bid farewell to the two women, and then headed towards the stairs.
Tracy stood up as well, silently following behind him.
Yizang Xinnuo and Shouzang Caiyun exchanged glances, their gaze lingering on the departing figures, especially pausing on Tracy for a moment.
Only after they had walked far away did Yizang Xinnuo speak, "That woman seems to be at the heaven-stage martial warrior!"
"Yes." Shouzang Caiyun nodded, saying, "To have a heaven-stage martial warrior serve as a bodyguard, it seems that this Brother Han is not an ordinary figure."
"Didn"t you notice? That woman is a bit strange," Yizang Xinnuo frowned and suddenly said.
"What"s strange about her?" Shouzang Caiyun asked.
"The way she looked at us was peculiar, like the way you look at me." Yizang Xinnuo said.
Shouzang Caiyun was silent for a moment, not knowing if Yizang Xinnuo was teasing her or speaking seriously.
However, she hesitated for only a moment before recalling the woman"s gaze and said, "It"s a bit strange, but perhaps it"s because of her strong power. Some people have a strong mentality, um… it could also be because of her figure. Well, I can"t compare to that."
Yizang Xinnuo was speechless.
"Perhaps!" She nodded, not delving deeper into the topic, and said, "Speaking of which, this Brother Han is indeed an extraordinary person. He has seen many things in the universe."
"Universe explorers. I"ve only heard of them in the past. I didn"t expect to meet one today," Shouzang Caiyun said.
"Don"t be enchanted by a man who popped out of nowhere. Don"t disgrace the talents of the Five Burial Stars." The three young men walked over.
"Get lost!" Shouzang Caiyun rolled her eyes, bluntly saying, "This is none of your business."
"It"s my business whether I"m enchanted or not. It has nothing to do with you. Besides, he"s so handsome, what"s the harm in being deceived by him."
"Guizang Yan. I hope you guys don"t stir up trouble behind our backs. He has our contact information, and we can rush over at any time. I don"t want him to be in trouble because of us." Yizang Xinnuo warned.
Guizang Yan didn"t know what to say. He felt so frustrated he wanted to vomit blood.
d.a.m.n it, is being handsome such a big deal!
"Guizang Yan. I hope you guys don"t stir up trouble behind our backs. He has our contact information, and we can rush over at any time. I don"t want him to be in trouble because of us." Yizang Xinnuo warned.
After giving their warning, the two women left directly, having nothing more to say to such uninteresting men.
The three young men stood on the spot, dumbfounded. They were warned by these two women for the sake of a man they had just met.
Women were indeed complicated beings!
The three looked at each other, their faces extremely unpleasant.
"Hmph! Superficial women!" Yunzang Xiao snorted coldly and left directly.
"Irrational!" Guizang Yan left behind a resentful remark and also departed.
Hengzang Mo ell silent for a moment, seemingly trying to find a word to vent his frustration, but alas, with too little ink in his stomach, he could only snort coldly and turn to leave.
The onlookers around wore extremely strange expressions, unable to help but feel some sympathy for them.
These three prodigies… they were quite pitiful!
Although their strength is formidable, it seemed in the realm of women… they were a bit lacking!
As the prodigies from the five major families left unhappily, the surrounding people lost interest and scattered.
However, Hengzang Mo and the others did not actually leave the Five Burials Hotel. They each had their exclusive suites here and could stay directly.
After all, their purpose in coming here was to wait for w.a.n.g Teng. Since he hadn"t arrived yet, they wouldn"t leave.
These prodigies all wanted to use w.a.n.g Teng"s reputation to make a name for themselves in the universe, and they didn"t want others to steal the spotlight.
Waiting here was the best approach.
Led by the attendant, w.a.n.g Teng returned to his suite and lay comfortably on the bed, sighing contentedly, "The cuisine here is excellent. It"s probably prepared by a Force Chef Grandmaster."
Tracy couldn"t help but savor the memories. To be honest, even she had never tasted such delicious food. Life as a universe pirate was too miserable. It was hardly a life for humans.
"Is it delicious?" w.a.n.g Teng, seeing her expression, asked with a smile.
Tracy glanced at w.a.n.g Teng expressionlessly, too lazy to pay him any mind. She simply sat down on the nearby sofa, closing her eyes to rest.
w.a.n.g Teng shook his head. This woman was too uninteresting. He needed to properly train and educate her.
"w.a.n.g Teng, I see those two girls are quite interested in you. Why not get in touch with them more? Maybe you can gain the support of the Yizang and Shouzang families!" Round Ball suggested.
"You"re overthinking it. If they find out I"m that councilor, they"ll probably want to be the first to eliminate me." w.a.n.g Teng rolled his eyes.
To think it wanted him to use charm—absolutely ridiculous.
"What if they can"t bear to eliminate you? I heard the Yizang Family is led by women. If you manage to win over the Yizang Family, you might find a breakthrough." Round Ball grinned.
"Get lost! If it were that easy, those councilors from before wouldn"t have died so tragically," w.a.n.g Teng said with frustration.
"Don"t be like that. I"m serious. Those councilors before probably didn"t look as handsome as you. Being handsome is a kind of capital, you know?" Round Ball persisted, continuing to incite w.a.n.g Teng.
w.a.n.g Teng couldn"t help but stroke his chin, seemingly finding some truth in its words.
However, such a rotten idea could only be a last resort.
Of course, in a situation where the others didn"t know his true ident.i.ty, he could indeed interact more with those two girls. There wouldn"t be any harm in that.
w.a.n.g Teng settled into his accommodation at the Five Burials Hotel. He heard that there were various entertaining programs in the evenings. What were they exactly?
Seated cross-legged on the bed, he began his cultivation.
A considerable amount of time pa.s.sed, and soon the star outside the Five Burial Stars descended, marking the beginning of the night.
w.a.n.g Teng was about to head out when he received a message from Yizang Xinnuo.
"w.a.n.g Teng, Yizang Xinnuo invited you to attend the evening banquet. There are said to be many entertaining programs!" Round Ball informed him.
"Banquet? And there are entertaining programs?" w.a.n.g Teng asked curiously. "What kind of entertaining programs are there?"
"There are various auctions, appraisal activities, and even stone gambling, slave compet.i.tions, and so on," Round Ball explained.
"So many programs!" w.a.n.g Teng"s eyes revealed a hint of intrigue. He remarked, "They even have stone gambling and slave compet.i.tions. The Five Burials Hotel really knows how to throw a wild event!"
