Chapter 109 Ch 109: Manager Ma
With a flick of his finger, Ye Xiao sent a low grade spirit stone flying toward the attendant. The attendant caught that spirit stone and looked at it.
"Spirit Stone!"
He could not help but exclaimed in shock. He turned his head left and right and seeing that no one was looking at him, that attendant took long breath of relief and hurriedly put it in a pouch and hide it inside his cloths. After doing all of these things, he looked at Ye Xiao with a worshipping gaze and said, "Thank you for your kindness. If there is anything more you want to know about, you can ask me. As long as I would know the answers of your questions, I will definitely answer you."
It was the first time when someone gave him a spirit stone as his tip. A low grade spirit stone is equivalent to 100 gold coins but even if one wants to exchange 200 gold coins for a low grade spirit stone, no one will exchange.
Spirit stones are very valuable and rare resource which helps one in their cultivation. Because of this, no one wants to exchange their spirit stones for gold coins.
And this spirit stone was given to him just like that. He did nothing except for answering some normal questions of Ye Xiao.
"No, I don't have anything to ask. You can go." Ye Xiao smile and busied himself in enjoying his meal after replying to the attendant.
"Oh!" That attendant thought for a while and then said, "Umm! Sir, I will try to talk with the manager about allowing you to go to the second floor of our Phoenix Restaurant."
"Ok."
Ye Xiao did not bother to say much. His all attention was on his food at this moment. It was the first time he was this hungry. He did not know the reason why he felt this much hunger in the first place but he knew that if he does not eat, he will surely die because of starvation.
This kind of death is really a very shameful death in itself. Ye Xiao did not wanted to die right now as he just gained his new life, let alone this kind of death.
While Ye Xiao was eating, that attendant went to his manager.
"Knock! Knock!"
"Come in."
When attendant knocked on the door of an ancient looking door at the second floor, a voice sounded out from the other side of that door which gave that attendant permission to come inside that room.
That attendant opened the door and went inside that room. There was nothing in this room except for a large bed, a rectangular table which was about two meters long and few chairs which was placed surrounding the table.
Many kinds of fruits were placed on the table but there was no one there to eat.
On the large bed, a middle-aged man with long beard which has the mix of black and white hair on them, was lying on the bed leisurely. He was looking at the attendant while one of his hands was on his waist and the other hand's palm was supporting his chin, helping him raising his head.
"Senior Ma!"
That attendant was trembling in fear as the middle-aged man who was lying on the bed in front of him was a marvellous expert. He was actually a martial artist at the Third Stage of the Martial Emperor Realm. He was even stronger than the sect leaders of the five great sects and the King of the Azure Dragon Country.
If Ye Xiao would have been here, he would have shocked to see that a manager of a restaurant was actually stronger than all the experts of the Azure Dragon Country. It was quite shocking.
The attendant bowed toward the middle-aged man while trembling in fear whom he called as Manager Ma.
"Hmm!"
Manager Ma let out a soft voice from his throat and said, "What is the matter? I said it before that only if some major figure comes here in our Phoenix Restaurant to eat can you come and bother me. If there is nothing important, I will definitely punish you."
When the attendant before him heard this, he trembled uncontrollably.
He did not dare to raise his head. He kept his gaze on the ground and respectfully said, "Manager Ma, there is a customer in the first floor who wants to go to the second floor to enjoy the delicacies there. He is not a Martial King Realm martial artist, but he has spirit stones in his possession. I came here to inform manager Ma about this as I thought that this matter is important. If it is not then, please punish me manager Ma."
That attendant played his role here. He already knew that after hearing him, manager Ma will definitely become happy. Let alone punishing him, he might even able to obtain benefits from manager Ma.
His guess was not wrong. When the manager of the Phoenix Restaurant heard that a customer, who is in the possession of spirit stones wants to go to the second floor of the restaurant to enjoy the delicacies there, he immediately jumped up from his bed and arrived in front of that attendant in an instant.
"Thump!"
The attendant scared out silly as he sat down on the ground when manager Ma suddenly appeared in front of him from the bed like a ghost.
"Stand up."
That attendant continued to look at manager Ma. His expression really looked too silly at this moment. And from the looks of his face, maybe, he did not even heard when manager Ma told him to stand up. He just kept looking at manager Ma with fear written all over his face.
"I said stand up."
Manager Ma shouted in cold voice.
"Eh! Yes, yes, thank you manager Ma." The attendant became so scared when he heard manager Ma shouting that he almost peed in his pants. He hurriedly stood up and thanked the middle-aged man in front of him.
"If what you said is not true, then I will kill you with my own hands." Manager Ma threatened the attendant while he kept looking in his eyes as if wanting to find some fault from the attendant's expression.
"Manager Ma, what I said is definitely the truth." That attendant said in full confidence.
Manager Ma nodded his head in satisfaction and said, "If what you said is true then you can get double salary this month but if it is a lie, then believe me, I will definitely keep my words and kill you."
When the attendant heard this, he became so excited that he almost started jumping. But suddenly, a hint of fear also appeared in his heart.
What if that customer does not have any more spirit stones on him?
When this question appeared in his heart, he was again scared and started trembling in fear.
He wanted to say something to manager Ma but then he realized that manager Ma was nowhere to be seen in this room. He understood that manager Ma already went to find that customer.
He hurriedly left the room and went down on the first floor. There he saw manager Ma standing and looking at all customers with a curious gaze. He was trying to fine the one who may have spirit stones in his possession. But, he failed to find.
Exactly at this moment, that attendant also returned.
"Who is that customer?" Manager Ma asked softly but in a cold voice.
"That one." The attendant pointed at Ye Xiao who was busy in wolfing down the foods.
"That one who is eating as if he had not eaten for years?" When manager Ma looked at Ye Xiao, he was quite shocked to see him eating like that.
When the attendant confirmed him that there is a customer on the first floor of the restaurant who has spirit stones in his possession, manager Ma imagined of him as some big shots who has a powerful background backing him. But that imagination of his shattered when he saw Ye Xiao who was eating like a beggar and his cloths were also somewhat tattered.
In short, at this moment, Ye Xiao was looking just like a roadside beggar.
"Yes, manager Ma, he is the one." That attendant again confirmed him. That attendant also felt embarrassed at this moment because he was the one claiming that Ye Xiao has spirit stones in his possession. He also understood what manager Ma was thinking at this moment.
Manager ma looked at the attendant first and then he turned his head to look at Ye Xiao.
Even after a long time, he was unable to bring himself to believe that Ye Xiao is the one in the possession of spirit stones.
After all, Ye Xiao looked very young and naive.
Of course he is very young. After all, he is only sixteen years old.
