Chapter 1915: Returning to Emperor NvWa City

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

In Tigerback Town, Emperor NvWa City, at noon of September 21st, the 3593rd year of Emperor NvWa’s Calendar...

Compared to that a few years ago, Tigerback Town seemed to not have changed at all. It was as boisterous as before and was covered with doctors and odd patients from the rest places across Motian Realm. Walking in the streets and watching those roadside clinics and inns, Zhang Tie sighed with emotion. The experience that he received medical treatment here before felt like happening yesterday.

There were so many passers-by in the streets of Tigerback Town. Walking among the people, Zhang Tie drifted with the current. Besides his outstanding personality which could arouse the attention of the passers-by, he was just like a young master of major clan in Motian Realm.

Many people who traveled to Emperor NvWa City like him would come to Tigerback Mountain to experience the exotic local customs and try their luck. They dreamed of making friends with the No. 1 doctor in Motian Realm. Of course, nobody would refuse being enrolled as Bian Heng’s apprentice if possible.

When in Tigerback Mountain, Zhang Tie was very low-key. Many people didn’t even know Butler Jin in Tigerback Mountain who was in charge of the fishing ground at that time, not to mention about 7-8 years later.

After passing by the familiar streets in Tigerback Town, Zhang Tie entered the fish market of Tigerback Town.

The fish market was very boisterous in the morning. When it came to noon; especially near lunch, many stalls in the fish market would be removed.

The atmosphere of the fish market was unpleasant. It was fishy and wet everywhere. There were bloodstains left by aquatic lives on the ground between sewage pools. As a result, people could barely find a clean place to put their feet. Those with a bit of social status would not like to come to this place. However, Zhang Tie didn’t care about that. Now that he could come here 7-8 years ago, he would also come here now.

When he strolled in the fish market, Zhang Tie found that more people were watching him than before with curious looks.

“These young masters of major clans must have not seen a fish market. He must be here out of curiosity...”

“Maybe you’re right...”

“Perhaps he’s here for medical treatment. He might want to take a look at the marine medicines here...”

Many people in the fish market couldn’t stand to whisper to each other after seeing Zhang Tie.

Du’s fish store was still in the original place as its signboard and layout remained unchanged. The only difference was that there were some more assistants in the sheds whom Zhang Tie had not seen before.

When a waiter saw Zhang Tie walking towards Du’s fish store, he instantly approached him and asked politely with a big smile, “Young master, who are you looking for?”

Given Zhang Tie’s look, the assistant realized that he was not here to buy fish. Therefore, he directly asked him who he wanted to see.

“I’m looking for Boss Du. Is he here or not?” Zhang Tie asked politely.

“Ah, our boss is inside,” the assistant answered as he instantly turned around and shouted towards the lobby of Du’s Fish Store, “Boss, someone is looking for you...”

“Who’s that? What are you shouting for?” Du Dahai asked as he walked out of the lobby. When he caught sight of Zhang Tie who was watching him with a smile, he was shocked at once as he greeted, “But... Butler Jin...”

“Hahaha, long time no see, Boss Du is still as bright as before.”

“Please, please, Butler Jin, please come in.” Du Dahai who was denouncing his assistant instantly changed greatly. He immediately invited Zhang Tie to come in as he bowed constantly like a waiter in a boite. After inviting Zhang Tie into his store, Du Dahai asked Zhang Tie to take a seat courteously. Then, he hurriedly made a cup of tea for Zhang Tie and served him a fruit tray and a tray of pastries. He then rubbed his hands before Zhang Tie with tension as he said, “Erm... Butler Jin, please forgive me for that. As I didn’t know you were coming, I really couldn’t prepare anything good for you. It’s too shabby. Please forgive me for that; please forgive me for that!”

“Boss Du, never mind. I will leave after having a brief talk with you!” Zhang Tie said, smiling.

“Ah? Butler Jin, are you not satisfied with what we’ve done for you?” Boss Du instantly became anxious as he hurriedly explained, “These years, Butler Jin, although you didn’t supervise us yourself, Du’s Fish Store always set free spike shrimps according to your request these years. We dared never be slack about it at all. I kept a close eye on them here. My eldest son just stayed in the port outside Emperor NvWa City. The money that Butler Jin left to us have not been used up. We’ve got accounts for trading and releasing spike spears for each month. Butler Jin, do you want to take a look at it?”

“No need. I’m very satisfied with what you’ve done!” Zhang Tie said as he took off a finger ring from his finger and gave it to Boss Du. He then said, “Here’s my bit appreciation. Please take it, Boss Du!”

The finger ring was just an average space-teleportation finger ring; however, it contained a few boxes of blue crystal coins and a piece of silver secret item. All these items were left by Red and Blue Devils. Zhang Tie took a trivial part of them and used them to appreciate Boss Du’s hard efforts over these years. Without Du’s Fish Store’s hard efforts, Zhang Tie could never acquire all the fruits of redemption from the gratitude of spike shrimps over the past few years. Fruits of redemption from the gratitude of spike shrimps were of great significance to Zhang Tie. Therefore, besides meeting Bian Heng in Emperor NvWa City, Zhang Tie came to Du’s Fish Store to expression his appreciation to Boss Du by the way.

Boss Du didn’t know Zhang Tie’s real identity until now. He still thought that Zhang Tie was a butler in Tigerback Mountain. During the past a few years, Boss Du thought that Zhang Tie was in secluded cultivation and went out for other works; he dared not ask about the reason that Zhang Tie didn’t come to his fish store anymore.

Watching Zhang Tie giving him a space-teleportation finger ring, Boss Du felt strange about it at the beginning as he wondered why Zhang Tie would gift him an average-looking finger ring. When he took it and injected his spiritual energy into it, his face turned pale with fear at once.

This finger ring and the items inside it were not even a hair off a bull’s back. However, Boss Du couldn’t make them even in ten generations.

“It’s too precious. It’s too precious. Butler Jin, please take it back...”

“Just take it. Even over 1,000 times more than this bit of things couldn’t match a hair of him. Don’t be such polite with him...”

Before Zhang Tie opened his mouth, a weird voice had came out of the gate. Closely after that, Bian Heng had walked in with a painful look with his little eyes on Zhang Tie.

Watching Bian Heng coming in, Boss Du was almost scared daylights out of him. As he had lived in Tigerback Town for many years and even once saw Bian Heng from afar, he had a clear memory of Bian Heng’s image. He would never forget Bian Heng’s look until death.

Watching Bian Heng coming in, Boss Du started to quiver all over as he stammered, “Bian... Bian... Bian Sage...”

“I even want to find you in Tigerback Mountain after leaving here; unexpectedly, you came here first!” Zhang Tie told Bian Heng.

“Qin Mu had known that the moment you came to Tigerback Town. He noticed me instantly. I’ve only got one head. How dare I let Your Majesty Dragon Emperor come to see me? Of course, I’d come here first!” Bian Heng said in a weird tone. His temperament remained unchanged.

After hearing their talk, Boss Du became petrified.

“Am I that kind of person?” Zhang Tie shrugged as he asked Bian Heng.

“Humph, it’s hard to tell what’s going on in the minds of other people!” Bian Heng replied with a cold harrumph.

“Let’s go. Let’s talk about it in Tigerback Mountain. Don’t frighten people here...” Zhang Tie said as he stood up and walked outside.

“I frighten people or you frighten people...”

“Of course you...”

“Humph...”

When they came outside the fish store, the two people instantly disappeared with a flash.

Watching the two people suddenly disappear, Boss Du quivered once all over as he instantly realized that the finger ring that Zhang Tie gifted him was still in his hand.

Boss Du hurriedly ran out of the parlor and looked around. However, the two people had long gone.

Just now Bian Heng was talking with Zhang Tie secretly with battle qi in the latter half. Boss Du didn’t hear it at all. He only heard that Bian Heng asked him to accept Zhang Tie’s gift...

He couldn’t stand taking a look at the space-teleportation finger ring and those items inside it; closely after that, Boss Du quivered once again, despite at noon, as he hurriedly clenched the finger ring and looked around like a thief. Then, he returned to his fish store and hid the space-teleportation finger ring in his inner pocket...
