Several followers have now boarded the pirate ship.
It's impossible to disembark now.
I had no choice but to grit my teeth and cooperate.
The old master had many sons, but only Wan Liang'an and Wan Yunsheng were his grandsons.
Although Wan Liang'an was not the old patriarch's preferred candidate, if Wan Yunsheng really died, then Wan Liang'an would be the only one to become the patriarch.
"We are willing to go through fire and water for the young master."
Wan Liang'an nodded in satisfaction, a sinister glint flashing in his narrow eyes.
"Use all available manpower to take Wan Yunsheng's life."
"yes!"
Wei Qinghe and the others had no idea what the child they took away was.
It's easy to tell from the child's clothes and appearance that he is of noble status.
The teleportation talisman Xin made worked very well, and before long they arrived at a place called Tide City.
The city of Haichao was quite lively, with several inns even standing at their entrances to solicit customers; one might mistake them for brothels.
Before entering the city, the group disguised themselves, and their appearances were all ordinary, including Wan Yunsheng.
The owner, who was dressed simply, started shouting at the customers coming and going.
"Are you here for a meal or to stay overnight? We've received a lot of fresh ingredients."
The proprietress of the inn across the street was not to be outdone, saying, "Gentlemen, please come into our restaurant for a meal. We have a top chef who comes from Tianhai City. He used to work for the Holy Lord of Tianhai City."
Tianhai City?
Wei Qinghe stopped in her tracks, and Fang Buwei understood instantly.
"Senior sister, we've traveled for so long, it's time to find a place to rest. Since you're a chef from Tianhai City, your culinary skills must be superb."
"This guest is absolutely right. This chef is incredible. He can cook anything you can imagine, whether it flies in the sky or walks on the ground. Please come in quickly." The glamorous owner was incredibly charming.
"Sir..." The simple proprietress looked somewhat forlorn.
However, the charming proprietress slapped him across the face.
"That's not how you steal customers. If you don't have the ability to attract customers, don't try to cause trouble at this time."
Just then, the simple and honest proprietress across from them deftly turned to the side and casually waved her hand, as if a gentle breeze had blown by.
Wei Qinghe narrowed his eyes. The seemingly casual palm strike just now carried extremely strong spiritual power and earth elemental power.
The boss opposite her, who appeared to be of average appearance and somewhat older, casually waved his hand, and she broke through it so easily without even feeling any power.
Are all the people of the Azure Sea Continent this powerful?
"It's the guest's right to choose which inn to stay at. Is it really okay for you to poach them like this?"
The alluring proprietress swayed her slender waist, exuding an air of self-assurance that she was the most beautiful woman in the world.
"Go ahead and try to steal it too. Do you think they'd even want your face?"
After saying that, the charming proprietress became smug, "Du Yunniang, you can't beat me in terms of men, your customers are still the same, and your business is far worse. Just wait to close down and get out of Haichao City!"
"Xiao Meng, that's enough." Du Yunniang's face instantly turned ugly, and then she angrily turned around and went back into the inn.
Xiao Meng wore a triumphant expression, but then spoke very politely to Wei Qinghe and the others.
"I'm sorry to have made you all laugh. Please accept a complimentary bowl of sweet soup later."
They were then immediately invited inside.
The inn's lobby was already packed with people.
Logically, they shouldn't have arrived at the restaurant yet, but the guests were already eating.
The enticing aroma of food wafted over, quite different from the air of the azure sea.
The guests seemed very hungry; as soon as any dish was served, it was immediately devoured.
"So delicious?" Qi Lan couldn't help but wonder, after all, she had eaten Wei Qinghe's cooking before, and anything else was just for survival.
Those who ate Wei Qinghe's cooking didn't scramble for it like this when they were eating.
"Guests, you may not know this, but just how good our chef from Tianhai City is," Xiao Meng said with a smile, covering her mouth.
"There are no seats available in the main hall, please move to a private room."
"Is this an inn or a restaurant?"
Qi Lan asked curiously, "This doesn't seem like an inn."
Xiao Meng seemed to see the doubt in Qi Lan's mind, and she said, "This place is both a restaurant and an inn. The restaurant is in the front, and the inn is in the back."
“This was originally my husband’s family’s house, but I later converted it into the largest inn and restaurant.”
Her later words seemed to contain an element of boasting.
"Then let's prepare a few of our signature dishes and send them to the private room; we prefer a quiet environment."
Wei Qinghe felt that the atmosphere in the hall was a bit strange.
It didn't feel like enjoying food; rather, it felt like swallowing food whole, stuffing any dish into your mouth.
This frenzy of buying is completely abnormal.
The cultivators' gazes were unfocused, as if they were lost in thought or absent-minded.
"Alright, please come in." Xiao Meng personally led the group to the private room.
"This little one is sleeping soundly; he didn't wake up even with all this noise."
Wei Qinghe glanced around the private room before speaking:
“We’ve been traveling a lot. He was sick a few days ago and has been like this ever since, spending most of his time sleeping.”
“There are a few good medical practitioners in Haichao City. They are said to have come from the Valley of the God of Medicine. Do you need me to help you invite them?” Xiao Meng nodded, seemingly without any suspicion.
Wei Qinghe sighed helplessly, "We simply can't afford to hire anyone from the Valley of the Medicine God right now, so we won't need them for the time being. Thank you, madam. We came here to find our relatives. Once we find them and have enough spirit stones, we'll hire a medical practitioner."
