#404 - Chapter 404: The Immortal's Judgment, Averting Danger

Li Ergou did not expect to encounter such a melodramatic situation while simply having a meal.

Following the voice, a man with a large, pale face opened a folding fan and walked in from outside. Behind him were a burly man carrying a sword and a fierce-looking man in gray, looking like professional sycophants. It was clear at a glance.

Behind the three men followed an unknown number of lackeys.

The man had just appeared when he saw Li Ergou in the room, his eyes filled with disdain.

When he saw Ye Wanwan, his eyes showed a hint of lust.

Then he saw Wu the Immortal, sitting upright and proper.

Seeing this man's appearance, Li Ergou sighed inwardly, wondering if he was a magnet for trouble, why he had to encounter such a playboy-like idiot. He wondered whose young master this was, and why the young masters of Baojing Prefecture were all so arrogant.

Just as he was wondering what this guy was going to do.

The young master saw Wu the Immortal and immediately beamed with joy, saying happily, "Oh, it's old Immortal, it's like the Dragon King's temple being flooded, family not recognizing family.

Old Immortal Wu, I've been looking for you everywhere."

This scene left Li Ergou and Ye Wanwan dumbfounded. Li Ergou was still wondering what to do, whether to take care of him or not, and how to clean up the mess afterward, but he didn't expect this guy to pull such a stunt.

He looked at Wu the Immortal strangely, but the latter remained calm, even putting on an air of a detached master, as if he really were an old immortal.

Wu the Immortal glanced at the fox-faced man and smiled faintly, "I said we would meet, didn't expect it to be only a few days before we met again. What, did you come looking for me specifically?"

Li Ergou's eyelids twitched, thinking that this guy was really good at acting, the other person clearly didn't know you were here, and you can still fool him.

The big-faced man rolled his eyes and immediately chuckled, "Old Immortal, you're absolutely right, you don't know how hard I've been looking for you.

Please accept me as your disciple, I, Cao Fengren, will definitely take good care of you in the future."

Wu the Immortal looked calmly at Cao Fengren and said, "Accepting you as a disciple is out of the question, but seeing how sincere you are, I can give you a few pointers."

Cao Fengren's eyes lit up and said, "Old Immortal, please give me your instructions quickly."

Wu the Immortal glanced behind him and said, "There are too many people, it's not good for me to say too much, after all, too many mouths."

When Cao Fengren heard this, he immediately turned to those servants and said, "Did you hear what the old Immortal said? Get out of here now."

The servants retreated in confusion.

Wu the Immortal was not in a hurry, letting everyone eat and talk, but Li Ergou became interested, wanting to see how Wu the Immortal would fool this guy.

Then he tore off a roasted lamb leg and handed it to Ye Wanwan. Ye Wanwan puffed out her cheeks and looked at him, thinking if he was treating her like a glutton.

Li Ergou chuckled and said, "Eat more, this is a very famous roasted lamb, it seems to be some kind of Tianshan milk sheep."

Ye Wanwan pouted and said, "Ergou-ge, I can't finish it, can we pack it up?"

Li Ergou: "..."

Looking at Cao Fengren, he began to chatter, "Old Immortal is indeed an old Immortal, you calculated it so accurately. A few days ago, you said I would have a bloody disaster, and I thought, who am I? How many people in the vast Baojing Prefecture dare to provoke me?

Unexpectedly, the next day, I was beaten up by my dad, it was a terrible beating. This time I am convinced, didn't you say I have a life-or-death tribulation, and I might lose my life.

Please advise me, old Immortal, no matter how much I offer, I will pay."

Wu the Immortal still looked like an immortal, "I disdain things like money, but I heard that your mansion has a ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood. If you want to survive this death tribulation, it's not difficult.

As long as you take a section of the ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, I can help you refine a substitute."

"Ah, ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, that's my dad's precious treasure, is that okay?"

"Hehe, you should see if your own life is more important, or your dad's treasure is more important. Anyway, you only have one life, and your dad has countless treasures.

I won't make the decision for you, you should decide for yourself.

There's also one more thing, your fate lacks gold. Calling you Fengren, the word 'Feng' in this name is not good, Feng is of fire nature, and you lack gold, isn't this exactly what counters you?

I suggest you change your name, otherwise even if you have a substitute, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand this life-or-death tribulation."

"Change my name, to what name?"

"Well, how about Tiezhu? This name is particularly rich in gold content, guaranteeing to replenish all your gold. Although your fire is strong, no matter how strong it is, it can't burn through your iron pillar."

"Tiezhu, Cao Tiezhu, isn't that... a bit too rustic?"

"Hehe, little friend, life is important, a name is just a code, don't dwell on these small things.

Of course, whether to change it or not is up to you, I'm just suggesting."

Cao Fengren was dumbfounded and fell silent, looking worried.

Wu the Immortal took the opportunity to say, "Come, come, let me introduce you, this is my little friend, he is called Li Ergou, isn't this name also terribly rustic.

But don't underestimate him, he is already the deputy chief constable of Yu City at a young age, and he came to Baojing Prefecture for the Number One Martial Arts Tournament.

At that time, you, the local tyrant of Baojing Prefecture, must take good care of him."

When Cao Fengren heard Li Ergou's name, he immediately perked up, thinking that it didn't matter if his name was ugly, wasn't there an even uglier one? If others laugh at him at that time, he can pull him out, wouldn't that shift the target?

Thinking like this, he thought, how could I be so smart.

So he was surprisingly enthusiastic, "Is that so, is that so, young and promising, young and promising, I like to make friends like you the most.

Since the old Immortal has spoken, we are brothers from now on. In Baojing Prefecture, if you have anything, just look for me, Cao Tiezhu, yes, I will change my name now, I won't call myself Cao Fengren anymore, I will call myself Cao Tiezhu, why? I believe in the old Immortal."

To be honest, Li Ergou was confused by this young master's series of flattery, after all, things turned around too quickly, and they were calling each other brothers, weren't the words 'brother' too worthless?

Of course, since people are giving you face, it's not good to refuse, after all, he is not a person who likes to refuse others, alas, he is just too easy to talk to.

Most importantly, Li Ergou still doesn't know who this Cao Gongzi is, but Wu the Immortal has been flattering him, so he can't say much now.

Li Ergou glanced at Wu the Immortal, seeing his old god-like appearance, he also said, "Okay, I am very happy to meet Brother Cao today, please take care of me in the future."

"Hahaha, everyone is brothers from now on, no need to be polite, today's meal is on my tab, don't fight with me, otherwise I'll turn my face."

With such a sucker around, Li Ergou was naturally happy, only a fool would fight with you.

"Okay, okay, in that case, I'll be embarrassed."

Cao Tiezhu also said, "I have something to do today, leave your address, and when I have time, I will find you and meet some of my brothers, so that everyone can take care of each other and avoid any misunderstandings."

Li Ergou was speechless, he didn't expect this guy to have so many things to do, but he doesn't have a place to live now. Just as he was about to speak, Ye Wanwan preemptively said, "There is a post station in the state government office, we will stay there temporarily."

Cao Tiezhu nodded and said, "Okay, I will send someone to find you there when I have time, I have something to do, I will leave first."

This guy left as soon as he said he would, without any hesitation, turned around and left the room, heading downstairs.

Li Ergou looked at his back, thoughtfully looked at Wu the Immortal, and said, "Wu the Immortal, tell me, what exactly is going on?"
