Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch 288's. An unintentional meeting
On the way into the depths of the Soul Forest, all the wandering evil souls that Zhang En encountered were dealt with with a single blow. Three hours later, Zhang En finally walked out of the Soul Forest.
Passing through the Soul Forest, Zhang En reached the Lightning Canyon.
Unfortunately, history has a habit of repeating itself. The clear night sky changed a moment after he entered the canyon. A strong wind started roaring and bands of lightning shone on the dark sky as the lightning hit the ground.
Zhang En was stunned as he stared at the sky above the canyon.
Was this lightning specifically against him?! Last time, the sky was clear, and this time it was the same, but the weather immediately changed after he entered the canyon.
Out of nowhere, a streak of lightning struck straight at him, as if he was being targeted. Zhang En did not dodge, nor did he retaliate or endure. Instead, he let the lightning hit his body.
"Good!" Zhang En exclaimed as a numbing sensation spread throughout his body.
The last time he passed through the Lightning Canyon Region, this lightning bolt was able to injure him, but this time, being shocked by the lightning it felt more like a massage that made him comfortable.
Since there was a free natural massage, Zhang En would not refuse it. He chose to fly directly over the dark clouds filled with lightning bolts, breaking through them and letting the lightning snakes smash into his body, so that the lightning bolt became faster, fiercer, and more brutal.
The numbing sensation grew more intense, and he actually felt like laughing out loud when being showered by lightning.
Because sometimes lightning strikes more sensitive areas, such as ***** that is on his body, or the bottom of it. As the lightning 'swept' his bottom, that amused feeling made him want to laugh.
Of course, if others found out that it only made Zhang En tickle when such lightning struck his bottom, it would probably scare them to death.
No high-level Cultivator experts dared to expose themselves directly to the terrifying lightning in the Lightning Canyon. The powerful prowess of his lower trunk was beyond imagination.
Zhang En stayed about an hour inside the canyon. Seeing that the clouds and lightning bolts showed no signs of disappearing, after quite enjoying the natural massage, he flew out from within the canyon.
A short while later, Zhang En reached Dwarven City. The view of the frenzied Dwarven City was still the same as the last time he was here.
"Brother Zhang!"
Not long after entering the gates of Dwarven City, as he walked through the streets, a voice rang out behind him.
As Zhang En turned to look, the voice that called out to him was the young dwarf he had met the first time he had come here, Jepe.
Although three years had passed, Jepe recognized Zhang En in an instant. It was an unintentional meeting.
“Brother Zhang, this is really you!”
Jepe was overjoyed to see Zhang En, and it looked on his face like a reunion with an old friend. He reached Zhang En's side in a few quick steps, patting Zhang En on the shoulder.
But, with Jepe's stature that was over a meter tall, even as he extended his arm, he only reached Zhang En's upper arm.
Looking at Jepe, Zhang En smiled widely, "I just entered Dwarven City, I didn't expect to meet you, Jepe."
Hearing that Zhang En still remembered his name, Jepe was overjoyed, "Come, Brother Zhang, let me treat you to a special wine of our dwarf race!"
As Jepe said so, he withdrew Zhang En's hand without waiting for a reply heading to a restaurant located in the center of the city.
Although Zhang En smiled helplessly, he did not reject Jepe's invitation.
However, even though many experts had tried but were unable to cure the Elves' Tree of Life, he was in no hurry to rush there.
Jepe led Zhang En to a large building while introducing, "This is the largest restaurant in our Dwarf City, called the Hero Restaurant."
Zhang En listened with a smile. The largest restaurant in Dwarf City, in his eyes, resembled a slightly larger earthen house. Inside the restaurant, tables and chairs were made of stone.
They chose a table that was in the corner and sat there. Jepe picked it up himself and ordered their best dish and two jugs of wine.
“Brother Zhang, where are you going after passing through our City this time?” Jepe asked as he opened the wine jug, releasing a fragrant scent in the air while pouring himself into a full bowl.
Jepe was stunned for a moment before laughing, “I heard there was a problem with the Tree of Life of the Elves. Are you planning to heal the Tree of Life? Our patriarch has also gone and tried half a month ago, but unfortunately he came back without results.”
Zhang En just laughed, not answering Jepe's question. Lifting the wine bowl upwards, they both clinked and minimized everything in one gulp.
Dwarf race wine gives off a strange taste, feels pure and natural, but at the same time leaves a spicy trail in the throat and wine that smells very fragrant.
“Jepe, so you're here!”
Suddenly, over ten dwarves rushed into the restaurant, emitting an extremely hostile air as they stepped on Jepe and Zhang En's table.
Jepw was a little angry to see that person.
“Jones, what are you trying to do?” Jepe.
The few dwarves behind Jones spread out in a semicircle, as Jones smirked at Jepe saying, “What do I want to do? Jepe, two months ago your parents borrowed five thousand gold coins from us to buy the mining materials, today is the end date of the payment. His son should have borne my father's debt, if you can't get the coins out today, don't even think about getting out of this restaurant! ”
Jepe's face flushed with anger.
He did not hear a word from his father about the loan, but judging from the current situation, it might be true. Even for people like Jones, he wouldn't make a blatant lie.
Although half-believed in this, five thousand gold coins was not a small amount, the wealth he possessed amounted to more than two hundred gold coins.
“How much is the total?” Suddenly Zhang En interrupted.
His voice caught everyone's attention.
“Brother Zhang, this..!”
Just as Jepe opened his mouth to refuse, Zhang En waved his hand, reassuring him, "It's okay." To him, coins were just numbers.
Ignoring everything, only the gold coins he had obtained from the sixty spatial rings of the Heeled and the Elders of the Black Crow Sect had died before, it was enough to drown the entire Dwarf City if he took out the contents of their rings all.
Jones' eyes twisted looking at Zhang En from top to bottom, laughing he said, "Thin-roasted man, I barely knew that you were someone rich. Back then, the old man borrowed five thousand gold coins from us, based on a ten percent interest each month, if calculating to date, the sum totaled six thousand gold coins!”
"What did you say?! Ten percent interest every month!” Jepe stood up angrily, “Jones, why don't you just rob us?!” He had never heard of such a large loan interest.
Jones grinned wickedly, "It was agreed when your parents wrote his name on paper."
Jepe wanted to argue further but he was stopped by Zhang En. A finger pointed at the empty space between them and the gold coins floated out into a pile. A glittering golden light filled Jones' gaze.
The sudden pile of gold coins shocked everyone who was watching inside the restaurant.
Moments later, Jones regained consciousness from his shock while ordering one of his men to count the gold coins.
"Boss, this total coin is exactly six thousand gold coins." The man reported to Jones after he finished counting.
