Chapter 1414 Politeness
A group of people began to despise each other, each looking down on the other, each thinking they were good and everyone else was stinking shit.
This is actually just like ordinary people, a group of people who are not much different. They always look down on each other, thinking that they are the best, the most outstanding, and the most excellent among them, while everyone else is just stinking dog shit.
These people are all the same. In fact, as long as they are human, no matter when, no matter how awesome they are, or what they do, as long as they are human, they will have some bad habits that they can't get rid of.
Just as these people were disliking each other and looking down on one another, suddenly someone in the banquet hall shouted loudly!
“Li…Li Daofeng…”
The name Li Daofeng came to mind like a thunderclap amidst the bustling banquet.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes fell on Li Daofeng. In an instant, Li Daofeng became like a monkey, surrounded by everyone's stares.
Li Daofeng had experienced too many such scenes before, so he wasn't shy at all being watched by everyone. He simply stood there, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.
He then clasped his hands in a fist and shouted loudly, "Lord of Fengyun City, I, Li, have arrived! Come out and greet me!"
He didn't know why the City Lord of Fengyun had invited him, but now that he was here, he wanted to see what the City Lord wanted to do by going to such lengths to invite him.
Li Daofeng's voice fell, but no one responded. The Lord of Fengyun City did not come out.
Li Daofeng was about to shout again when he suddenly heard someone say:
"Li Daofeng! Mr. Li, it's truly a joy to see you here today. But I never expected the renowned Mr. Li to be so young?"
Li Daofeng looked over and saw a middle-aged man sitting at a table, speaking to him.
"I've long heard that the owner of the Divine Pill Pavilion is a young man who's not even a hundred years old. He's young, but his cultivation is very high, and he's also extremely arrogant. It's true that hearing about him is not as good as seeing him, and seeing him is not as good as hearing about him." The man's tone was full of sarcasm, clearly showing his disdain for Li Daofeng.
Li Daofeng didn't care about what he said at all. He had seen too many people like this. They were all talk and no action, thinking that they had some skills and could look down on everyone. If he said anything to them, they would think they were the best and that no one else was as good as them.
He can't stand it when people say others are great, so he has to come up and make sarcastic remarks.
Li Daofeng had seen far too many things like this! From initially reacting with anger, to gradually becoming indifferent, to now simply ignoring it.
So! Li Daofeng is completely uninterested in this situation. If you want to talk, then go ahead and talk, as long as you're not afraid of the strain on your mouth. Go ahead and say it.
If you're not afraid of working yourself to death, then go ahead and say it. I can't be bothered with you.
Li Daofeng's silence didn't mean others wouldn't speak. Someone said, "Mr. Li, you're much more capable than him. He has pills that can increase his cultivation by several decades! In that respect, Mr. Li is far more impressive!"
"Mr. Li, the pills auctioned in your pill pavilion are rumored to increase one's cultivation level, some for ten years, some for twenty years, some for thirty years, and some for fifty years. Mr. Li! Are these all true?"
One man looked at Li Daofeng as he spoke, but his eyes were filled with fervor, as if to say, "I want this pill. I've already said it, so you better hurry up and bring it to me. Didn't you hear me speaking up for you? Can't you at least show some appreciation?"
When this pill that can increase cultivation was mentioned, many people present turned their eager eyes to Li Daofeng.
Which martial artist wouldn't be envious of pills that can increase cultivation? Moreover, the kind of pills that Li Daofeng produces are incredibly powerful. Once you eat one of someone else's pills, you can forget about ever eating another; it won't be of any use.
But! Li Daofeng's pills can be taken three times at once. That's three times!
Don't underestimate these three times. This is not just a simple number three. The accumulation of cultivation is not as simple as a number.
All the martial artists understand this perfectly! That's why they've all gathered here today; and they've asked the Lord of Fengyun City to invite Li Daofeng here.
It looked like a banquet, but everyone present knew that it was specifically aimed at Li Daofeng.
Their only goal was to obtain the elixir formula from Li Daofeng.
Li Daofeng ignored them. He unleashed his divine sense, beginning to perceive everything around him, especially searching for any figures lurking in the shadows.
When he arrived, he wanted to use his divine sense to examine the place, but then he thought that he was here to attend a banquet, and it would be somewhat impolite to use his divine sense to examine someone's residence so soon after arriving.
Li Daofeng was, after all, a college student who studied etiquette and was a model youth.
When entering someone else's home, you need to knock on the door. Once inside, don't look around or rummage through things, and especially don't touch their belongings.
Therefore, Li Daofeng will not do anything impolite.
But! He was polite, but others were rude to him, so to hell with politeness.
Moreover! Politeness depends on the context. In this godforsaken place, damn it, politeness seems to be of no use.
The people here! They all think they're superior, as if the whole world belongs to their family. They don't understand what manners are at all.
So! Li Daofeng's politeness is only for polite people. He called out twice to let them know he was here and greeted them, but that so-called Lord of Fengyun City didn't even show up. Is that polite? That's not polite at all.
Since everyone else is so impolite, why should he be polite? So he just threw away all his manners.
So he simply unleashed his divine sense and began to investigate the situation of the Fengyun City Lord's mansion.
Given the current situation, Li Daofeng is already prepared for the fight. There are people hiding in the shadows.
As he scanned the area with his divine sense, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly. Was this some kind of scheme targeting him? There were countless hidden experts and numerous array formations and restrictions.
This is clearly a trap, and he's still being polite to them. It really is a trap.
However, he had nothing to be afraid of! Since he dared to come to the city lord's mansion, he was already prepared for a fight.
