Hearing that the latter was calling the other party as 'Esteemed guests' meant that this Fei Liquan was actually someone important in this restaurant!
This had Meng Yue surprised, thus she asked, "So this young master of the Fei Clan is also a VVIP member of this third floor?"
Heng Wu replied with a positive nod, "Of course! and not only that, he is also.. a Culinary Seer like you as well Lady Meng Yue.. and the best at that!"
Oh? He is the best?
"How is he the best?" Meng Yue said as her interest was piqued.
Fei Liquan waved his hand grandly to stop Heng Wu so that he could answer it himself, "That's because I'm the only one whom had managed to clear the second stage of the Food decryption method on this third floor so far!"
When Meng Yue heard this, she was thoroughly surprised!
After all, becoming a Culinary Seer was not easy at all, especially on this third floor where all the ingredients used on the dishes were rare and exotic!
Back in the olden days, she had to try all sorts of the ingredients by herself using her connection with the Alchemist Society and the Doctor's Circle, and this alone took her quite a long time to remember each taste by memory before she was confident to challenge the Food decryption method!
But the more she thought about it, the more it made sense. After all, which resources does the Fei Clan was not able to access in this Empire being the most wealthiest of them all?
Nevertheless, it was still quite impressive for one of the younger generation to be able to memorize all those thousands of tastes inside their brain!
It seems that this 'Intellectually Disabled' person was quite smart in something as well.
"Speaking of which, I have spoken quite rudely to the most well-known tyrant of the Jiu Empire before at the entrance and for that, I hope you can forgive me Elder Meng Yue. But who could blame me? I didn't know about you until my personal guard here told me about it." Fei Liquan sighed.
Gulp!
Everyone swallowed a mouthful of their saliva.
This bastard has the balls of iron!
Meanwhile, Meng Yue's brows twitched upon hearing the words used in the latter's sentences.
You dare call me a tyrant so openly? And Elder?
I'm still young!!
Seeing that cold look gradually appearing on his mother's face, Duan Li immediately intervened before things escalate, "Anyway, thank you for your generosity to pay for our food, but 3 high quality spirit stones won't be enough to cover it.. so it's fine!"
Fei Liquan was evidently taken by surprised hearing this, "What? 3 High quality spirit stones isn't enough? What are you eating? A baby dragon soup?" he said in astonishment.
Pu!
Meng Yue choked on her own saliva.
Damned bastard!
Meng Yue quickly stood up from her seat and was about to send another slap to this fellow, but as if oblivious to his current situation, Fei Liquan immediately waved his hand and took out another 2 high quality spirit stones, making the total amount on the table became 5 high quality spirit stones!
"Is this enough then?" he said with both an innocent and indifferent look at the same time.
Duan Li was surprised by the other party again. Despite the vicious words this fellow used in his speech, he was really far too generous in taking out such an amount for people whom he just met awhile ago!
They couldn't help but to ponder deeply on this.
'Perhaps this was how he managed to stay alive thus far?'
Meng Yue also sat back down when she saw this with a snort. 'Hmph! It seems that your money has saved you this time!'
Heng Wu by the side had already took out his handkerchief to wipe off the sweat on his forehead. He knew very well Meng Yue's temper when others talk down on her, and was afraid that their restaurant would be implicated should that happen.
Thankfully, the worse did not happen.
Turning to Fei Liquan, he asked the other party politely, "Esteemed guest Fei Liquan, what would your order be today?" with a smile.
The latter cupped his chin for a while before deciding, "Get me.. the Dominion King Lobster!"
Eh?
"This.." Heng Wu did not expect this and scratched his head awkwardly.
Looking at the other party's expression, Fei Liquan asked, "What's wrong?"
"Well.. the thing is.." Heng Wu began to explain.
...
"What? There is only one Dominion King Lobster in stock and Elder Meng Yue has already ordered it?" Fei Liquan said with a frown.
That won't do.. I need to taste this next dish in order to complete my list of ingredients using the food decryption technique..
"How about this, Elder Meng Yue, I will pay another 2 high quality spirit stones and you give me that Dominion King Lobster?" he suggested.
"You..!!" Meng Yue gritted her teeth.
This braindead fellow really did not know what's good for him! To think that he would dare to vie for my food!
"Never! I need to eat that food today and will not accept any other dish or money for it!" she replied with a frosty tone.
The reason why she was being so adamant about eating the Dominion King Lobster was due to its miraculous effect to boost one's recovery from damaged meridians and pathways.
Legend has it that once upon a time, a well-known cultivator that survived the ancient war during the revolution period of the Jiu Empire was almost turned into a cripple when most of his channels was teared apart. However, he was saved by one of the ancient seven saints that served him this dish and made a miraculous recovery!
This was what she was aiming for!
Although Meng Yue's internal injuries was all but healed by Duan Li, she still felt that her rate of recovery, specifically spiritual Qi, was significantly weaker than during her peak. Thus, she figured out that by consuming the Dominion King Lobster, her recovery rate would at least return to how it was before, even if its only temporary.
However, there was no way the others here would know of this, and she also felt that she wasn't obligated to explain this to them, therefore they were quite surprised with her response this time. After all, 2 high quality spirit stones for compensation was actually quite a lot of money!
This was especially the case for Fei Liquan whose brows right now were frowning quite tightly in displeasure.
"Why are you being so hard-headed? It is only out of respect from me that you, as an elder with significant infamy in the Jiu Empire, that I even considered paying you 2 high quality spirit stones! Yet you still did not budge? What is wrong with you?" he said.
Ku!
Hard-Headed? Infamy? What is wrong with me?
'Hard-Headed your ancestor! Infamy your predecessor! The only thing wrong here is your head!!' Meng Yue cursed at him inside her mind thoroughly, and she was like a ticking time bomb right now, ready to slap this crazy fellow back into the fatherland.
Knowing that trouble would only blew up outside of its proportion if he continued to let this Fei Liquan bash at his mother like this ruthlessly, even for an intellectually disabled person, the other party was already like a moth flying close to a raging sea of flames right now that was waiting to be burned to death if he did not take any action!
Thus, Duan Li waved his hand and 5 high quality spirit stones appeared on the table.
Wengg!!
"If you can pay more high quality spirit stones than me, then you can have the Dominion King Lobster from my mother." Duan Li said with a confident smile.
"Oh? Now this is a bet that I am most familiar with, plain and simple. However, if you actually take into account all the previous money I've put on the table, it would already amount to 7 high quality spirit stones." Fei Liquan shook his head as he chuckled with his hands behind his back, finding Duan Li's proposal for this duel to be quite funny.
What an amateur..
He then continued, "Therefore, I've already surpassed your 5 high quality spirit stones by another two!" he said with a smug face and wide grin.
Hmm.
Now this Fei Liquan is starting to annoy me too.
You want to compete for who is more wealthier with me?
Fine.
As the old saying once said, 'If you want to curb the hydra monster, you just have to cut all nine of its head simultaneously!'
Duan Li waved his hand again.
BAM!
This time, what appeared on the table was no longer another pile of high quality spirit stones, but a superior quality spirit stone instead!
"Sorry, you were saying?" Duan Li said with an indifferent expression.
Pu!
Finally, Fei Liquan was able to experience choking on his own saliva.

_Ram_ Dear UIU readers,
You can imagine this Fei Liquan as that annoying noble with blond hair and exagerating bodily movements all the time when he speaks, the kind that has flowers and glitters all over him and his teeth shining xD
He isn't a bad person though, just a really annoying one lol.
Enjoy and thanks for your concerns everyone! I love creating this novel and it has become my joy that it has also became everyone's favorite as well.
