Lin Feng was so confident not only because he was in the wrong, but more importantly, because he had the strength to contend with the Gongsun family!
Even if he can't beat the half-step king-level Gongsun Ancestor for the time being, he can still protect himself more than enough!
Therefore, he doesn't care whether the other party comes or not; he's not afraid even if they do come!
"Young master, that is true, but as you know, the world is still fundamentally one where the strong rule, and everything must be decided by strength!"
The waiter frowned and said worriedly, "Even if that Old Ancestor Gongsun disregards the law and kills you directly, the royal family will not do anything to Old Ancestor Gongsun because you are just an unknown junior with the cultivation of a mere sixth-level Grandmaster!"
"Furthermore, you're here to participate in the imperial son-in-law election!"
"Even if that old patriarch Gongsun is mindful of the law and dares not kill you, he has plenty of ways to prevent you from participating in the imperial son-in-law election!"
"Therefore, in my humble opinion, you'd better avoid this place if you can!"
"Do you know the Royal Inn? That place is the territory of the Great Jin royal family. Even the three major families wouldn't dare to cause trouble there. Why don't you just hide there?"
"Royal Inn?"
After hearing the waiter's words, Lin Feng was somewhat surprised, then laughed and said, "You know quite a lot, kid. It's a waste of your talent to be a waiter!"
"Ah, you flatter me, esteemed guest. I've simply seen and heard a lot about this in restaurants!"
The waiter scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.
"Alright, I'll listen to your advice and go hide at the royal guesthouse!"
Lin Feng stood up with a smile. "What's your name?"
"You little bastard, Wang Ergou!"
The waiter bowed and said.
"Wang Ergou? Alright, I'll remember you! Once I become the prince consort, I'll definitely come back and promote you to be the manager here!"
Lin Feng smiled slightly, then waved his hand and took out a high-grade spirit stone, tossing it to Wang Ergou.
This Wang Ergou even knows how to share his burdens and solve his problems, which is no wonder he gave him the Yuan Stones he had previously given him.
His words were enough to warrant another high-grade spirit stone as a reward.
Then, without looking back, he walked downstairs.
What Wang Ergou said makes sense. Although he is not afraid of that Gongsun Laozu, there is no need to cause unnecessary trouble. Before the election of the imperial son-in-law begins, he should try to avoid trouble as much as possible.
Besides, if he stays here and gets into another fight with the Gongsun family, it will definitely affect the restaurant's business, which would be a bit dishonest. Therefore, there's nothing wrong with hiding in the royal inn.
Of course, if the other party is reckless and insists on coming to their death, then he would naturally not mind granting their wish!
"High-grade...high-quality spirit stones? They're promoting me to manager?"
Wang Ergou was shocked.
One high-grade spirit stone is worth ten thousand spirit stones!
He had never received such a large reward in his entire life.
As for being promoted to manager, that was something he never dared to dream of!
If that were really the case, then Raymond Lam would be his second parents!
After a moment of shock, he quickly bowed to Lin Feng's retreating figure and said, "Thank you, esteemed guest! Thank you, esteemed guest! I will be here at any time to await your arrival!"
Not long after Lin Feng left, several elegantly dressed and imposing men arrived at the second floor of Tianxiang Tower with a menacing air. Their faces were ashen, as if covered in frost, and their eyes were so fierce that they seemed capable of devouring people.
"Where is he? Where is the murderer?!"
The middle-aged man in white, who was at the head of the group, glanced at the messy scene and asked in a cold voice.
His voice seemed to come from an unmelting ice cave, so cold it sent shivers down your spine.
Most importantly, he also exuded the powerful aura of a high-level grandmaster.
Therefore, upon hearing his cold question, everyone on the second floor trembled with fear!
"Reporting to Your Excellency, the person has already left!"
Wang Ergou walked over tremblingly, his head bowed deeply, and said in a terrified voice.
"He's gone? He killed someone from our Gongsun family, and you, the people of Tianxiang Tower, actually let him leave?"
The middle-aged man in white stared at Wang Ergou, his voice growing even colder, and his terrifying aura directly suppressed Wang Ergou.
"My lord, please calm down! I am merely a True Essence Realm cultivator, while the other party is a Grandmaster Realm expert. If he wants to leave, how can I possibly stop him!"
Enveloped by the other party's aura, Wang Ergou felt as if he had been hit by a mountain. His legs buckled instantly, and he lost control of his body, kneeling down. He then hurriedly lay on the ground, saying in terror.
"Grandmaster level expert? Bullshit! Just an arrogant ant who doesn't know his own limitations! He'll be a dead man soon enough!"
The middle-aged man in white said coldly, "Where did he go?"
"he……"
Wang Ergou hesitated for a moment.
Lin Feng had rewarded him with a high-grade spirit stone and promised to promote him to manager, so if possible, he really didn't want to reveal Lin Feng's whereabouts.
"Huh? You still want to cover up his whereabouts? Are you looking for death?!"
Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man in white flew into a rage, and the aura he released suddenly intensified by three points, forcing Wang Ergou to prostrate himself on the floor!
"M-My lord, spare me! I'll talk, I'll talk!"
Wang Ergou was so scared he almost peed his pants. He had no choice but to give in and said with a guilty look, "He...he went...went to the Royal Inn!"
"Royal Inn?"
The people behind the middle-aged man in white immediately frowned.
It would be fine elsewhere, but if it were at the royal guesthouse, things would probably get complicated!
After all, that was the territory of the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty. Even the Gongsun family, one of the three great royal families, would not dare to cause trouble there!
"Hmph! He's not stupid after all; he even knew to hide in the royal guesthouse!"
The man in white frowned slightly, but he wasn't too surprised. He said in a cold voice, "But if he thinks he can rest easy by hiding in the royal guesthouse, he's sorely mistaken!"
"Those whom the Gongsun family wants to kill, even if they hide in the palace, it won't do them any good!"
"Let's go! To the Royal Inn!"
He then left with his men.
"this……"
Upon seeing this, Wang Ergou first breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned, becoming worried for Lin Feng.
He thought that letting Lin Feng hide in the royal guesthouse would solve everything, but now it seems that he had clearly underestimated the power of the Gongsun family!
Since the other party dared to go directly to the royal guesthouse to demand his life, Lin Feng's life is probably in grave danger!
As for Lin Feng's promise to promote him to manager, that's even more unthinkable!
...
The Royal Inn is not far from Tianxiang Tower; both are located in the most prosperous area of the capital.
After making a few inquiries, Lin Feng found the Royal Inn.
