Chapter 745: Chapter 708: He Will Bring Good Luck to Everyone
After a brief moment of surprise, Prince Cheng turned and looked at Shen Han and the others.
"In that case, you should leave first. Today’s banquet will be accompanied by me and Venerable Mo."
Everyone’s expressions were extremely unpleasant; it was simply holding them up to humiliate them.
But right now, if Shen Han and the others don’t leave, Mo Wanshui might refuse to join the banquet.
With an apologetic expression, Prince Cheng continued to persuade them to leave first.
As the prince spoke, they had no choice but to comply.
Though their hearts were heavy, they had to acknowledge the bigger picture and choose to leave.
Shen Han only gave Mo Wanshui a glance; the most obnoxious person was clearly him.
Yet he insisted that others were the ones who smelled.
Despite having a good temper and being tolerant, everyone left together.
On the way out, their faces remained grim.
Wanting to curse Mo Wanshui, but recalling his strength and status, they couldn’t bring themselves to do it.
Someone seemed to want to speak, but those beside hurriedly started to hush him.
"Be careful, walls have ears. If it reaches his ears, there might be trouble.
By then, it’ll just be us bringing trouble to ourselves."
A group of people sighed a few times; what can small figures facing humiliation do?
They cooked some food in the dining room, shared it, and each went to their rooms.
When gathered, mouths tend to utter nonsense, more prone to invite trouble.
Going back individually was somehow better.
At 9:45 PM, the sky was completely dark.
The banquet for Mo Wanshui should have ended by now.
After the banquet ended, Prince Cheng came to the guest room to comfort everyone.
This prince is quite adept at winning people’s hearts.
The group was humiliated by Mo Wanshui, and he took the opportunity to console them, ensuring the loyalty of the newly arrived advisors.
After Prince Cheng left, everyone gathered again.
A few with well-informed sources started discussing the latest news.
"I just inquired with the mansion guards, you wouldn’t believe how peculiar this Mo Wanshui is.
The upper room prepared for him, he adamantly refused to stay.
Claiming those upper rooms smell bad, he couldn’t bear it.
Insisting on sleeping on the road, on the main entrance path of the mansion.
Now everyone must use the side entrance to avoid disturbing Mo Wanshui.
Behind his back, the servants are all talking about him."
Shen Han heard this news as if not surprised.
After all, he had already witnessed Mo Wanshui’s peculiar demeanor earlier.
But given the Prince Cheng’s Mansion has a request for him.
No matter how Mo Wanshui behaves, they’ll strive to accommodate him.
A night passed.
Before 7:00 AM, the room’s door was knocked upon.
Shen Han got up and opened the door; it was the mansion’s attendant.
"Sir, this morning Venerable Mo said...said he still finds the mansion somewhat smelly.
He wants all of you to move out of the mansion..."
The attendant also probably felt these words were quite inappropriate, speaking hesitantly.
Stepping out of the room, others were quarreling with the attendant.
Shen Han did not engage in this futile argument; what can these servants do?
If they must leave, they will leave.
It’s not necessary to stay in Prince Cheng’s Mansion anyway.
Shen Han wasn’t interested in disputing these minor matters.
"For the martial arts competition mid-month, can we go together?"
Shen Han was only concerned about this, still wanting to obtain more Cultivation Technique Manuals from Prince Cheng’s Mansion.
During such events highly valued by the mansion, opportunities to gain benefits increase.
Besides, Shen Han wanted to use this chance to observe the power level of experts in this world.
"Don’t worry, sir, you can certainly attend the competition.
On that day, it’s not just people from Prince Cheng’s Mansion there, so many people, he wouldn’t know who went or didn’t."
Shen Han nodded, then calmly vacated the room.
What was the purpose of troubling the mansion’s servants?
The silver and gold provided by the mansion were enough to stay at an inn in the city.
Truth be told, Shen Han was genuinely curious about Mo Wanshui’s strength.
This person exudes oddity, possessing many strange quirks.
Seemingly, he does appear like a high-level individual.
The mansion’s submission to him also indicates Mo Wanshui definitely has strength.
He probably demonstrated his strength in front of others before.
But Shen Han couldn’t quite gauge how powerful he really was.
Curious about the level of strength of the Snow Mountain Realm Shen Han was indeed.
Over the following days, since residing in the city’s inn.
Whatever happened in Prince Cheng’s Mansion was unknown to Shen Han, allowing peace to return.
Thoughts focused solely on the comprehension of the Power of Laws, while waiting for the competition to begin.
With two days until mid-month, Prince Cheng’s Mansion finally started taking action.
This martial arts competition is held in the city along the border of Cangye Country.
Yet the Cangye Country’s territory is quite small; in two days, a carriage ride can definitely reach the destination.
Shen Han joined the group and boarded the carriage heading there.
The Venerable Mo insisted on sitting atop the carriage.
Given his status, who would dare say anything?
Mountains are not abundant in Cangye Country; the journey is fairly flat, making travel relatively easy.
In two days, arriving on schedule at the location.
Lin City, a border city of Cangye Country.
During the journey, Shen Han learned the core of the competition.
The reason the competition holds such importance for Prince Cheng is the significant interests behind it.
Cangye Country and its neighboring countries have territorial disputes; the disputes among four countries are quite substantial.
The national powers of these four countries are generally normal, or to put it plainly, weak.
