After rebirth, I picked up my mortal enemy as my apprentice Chapter 124

In a small shop on the southeast side of the Liuyun Mountains.

A young man in gray raised the bamboo noodles in his hand and gestured to the shopkeeper at the front desk.

“Hey, boss, why is there a gecko in this bowl of noodles?”

The middle-aged shopkeeper came over and glanced at the noodles in his bowl.

In that bowl of bamboo noodles, the noodles were thin, long and flexible, slightly yellowish, and exuded a faint warmth.

Just above this bowl of noodles, a gecko was floating quietly, its body turned white from being cooked, forming a sharp contrast with the light yellow color of the noodles.

It was like an unexpected visitor, breaking the overall harmony.

“Oh, isn’t it just a gecko? I’ll just treat it as a side dish for you. I won’t charge you an extra dollar.”

The young man in gray was Shen Yuan. His face froze and he showed a fake smile.

“Haha, shopkeeper, you are blatantly infringing on the rights of your customers. You are ruining the reputation of your store. Your business will not be so good in the future.”

“Whether you want to eat or not, my store’s business won’t be affected by your presence or absence.”

“Boss, you’re going a bit too far.” Shen Yuan smiled stiffly, and the air pressure around him was visibly dropping.

“Go away, don’t think I don’t know. I’ve seen a lot of customers like you. When no one is looking, you throw some messy things into the bowl and find excuses to avoid paying the bill…”

“But I haven’t eaten my bowl of noodles yet. How can I blame you? If you continue like this, I will be angry and the consequences will be serious.”

Shen Yuan felt that he was trying very hard to reason with the other party.

“You are a lone man here to take part in the entrance examination for the Jinghang Sect, right? Don’t think you can cause trouble just because you have some skills.”

The shopkeeper supported himself, straightened his chest and said, “Do you know Brother Chen Pingzhi from the Jinghang Sect? You will all know him after you enter the outer sect. He is my distant relative, so I warn you, if you make trouble, someone will come to deal with you…”

Chen Pingzhi?

“You bully customers with your big store, are you relying on this person?”

The shopkeeper said disdainfully: “What do you mean by big store bullying customers? It’s obviously you who are looking for trouble first. My chef will not sit idle and add extra noodles for you.”

Shen Yuan relaxed his clenched fists and gave the shopkeeper a strange smile.

“Then I’ll put the bill for this bowl of noodles on him. Let him take care of himself.”

The shopkeeper was not very happy about his behavior.

“Do you want to eat it or not? You can’t return this bowl of noodles!”

“I can’t waste my money in vain, so I have to finish it.”

Shen Yuan quickly sat back in his chair and finished his noodles in no time. He even saved the gecko that fell into the noodles for last and chewed it bite by bite.

“It’s OK. It tastes good.”

The shopkeeper had already returned to the front desk, but the people around him began to sneer.

“Hahaha, is this guy a fool?”

“He actually ate it.”

The people who laughed at him were two men wearing bamboo hats. Their faces could not be seen, but judging from their voices, they seemed to be young.

Shen Yuan didn’t even look at them. After finishing his noodles, he looked up at the white fog outside and said to himself, “It seems that this white fog is the first hurdle of the sect assessment. Those who can’t pass the white fog should not be eligible to participate in the subsequent entrance examination.”

“Fortunately, I have been prepared, so this is not a problem for me.” He stood up, took out a compass from his chest, pretended to measure it, and seemed to have discovered something. He walked straight out of the inn and headed towards a certain direction of the white fog.

The two men took off their hats, looked at each other, and found that the other person had the same idea as they did.

Without any delay, he followed the direction Shen Yuan left quietly.

A quarter of an hour later, Shen Yuan appeared at the front desk of another small hotel. His body was clean without a trace of blood, and he was holding two bamboo hats in his hands.

The waiter’s service attitude was much better than the previous shopkeeper. As soon as he saw Shen Yuan come in, he nodded and bowed.

“Sir, do you want to stop by for a meal or stay overnight?”

Shen Yuan touched his chin and asked, “Do you have any girls here?”

The waiter’s face froze: “Sir, this is a proper hotel, we don’t have that kind of service.”

“Really?” Shen Yuan didn’t care. “But there was an indecent woman here last night, and you guys are not decent either.”

“Uh…” The waiter couldn’t keep up with the customer’s train of thought for a moment.

“Don’t worry about me, I’m just here to look for someone.” After saying that, Shen Yuan went up to the third floor on his own, under the astonished gaze of the waiter. That was the floor where the other guests’ private rooms were located.

Shen Yuan came to the door of one of the rooms and pushed it open without knocking.

It seemed like a pornographic drama was about to take place in the room.

The woman was petite and delicate, with skin as white as snow, like a carefully carved jade. At this moment, she was half-naked, pushing and shoving a man, flirting like a couple.

“Sir Ximen, please don’t do that. You are being mean.”

“Women don’t love men who are not bad. Don’t you like me being a little bad?”

The man said cheesy love words, put his arm around the woman’s waist, and his hand was about to reach deeper inside.

Shen Yuan’s sudden intrusion interrupted their next activity.

The woman opened her eyes slightly and turned to look at him in surprise.

The man who was about to have an intimate moment with the beauty would naturally get angry when he saw his progress being interrupted.

“Who the hell are you? Get out of my room.”

“Me?” Shen Yuan pointed at his chin and asked in confusion, “My name is Shen Yuan, and I’m here to look for her. If you’re busy, don’t bother with me. Just finish with her first. I can wait.”

“You’ve lost your mind, haha!” Ximen Guanren was so angry that he laughed, “I don’t care who you are, you’re going to suffer today, come…”

Before he could even shout “someone come here”, the woman suddenly hugged his head and pressed it against his chest.

“Jinlian you…”

A suffocating feeling of happiness surged into his heart. Just as Ximen was about to raise his head, the woman gently twisted the wrist around his neck.

With a click, his neck was broken in happiness.

But even at the moment before his death, there was still a daze in his eyes.

“This newly found man of yours doesn’t seem to have much cultivation. So absorbing his power will only be twice as effective as the result?”

Yueyan turned her head, and murderous intent began to emerge in her originally charming eyes.

“Shen Yuan, how many times have you ruined my business?”

“Oh, so, I apologize to you, will you accept it?”

“You, fuck…”

Yueyan began to take deep breaths and thought to herself, No… I can’t let this guy make me angry.

Shen Yuan smiled and said, “It seems that you can’t accept it. Then there is no need for me to apologize.”

She glanced at Shen Yuan coldly: “I really don’t understand why the Fallen Angel lineage would accept someone like you.”
