Chapter 1405: A Misunderstanding

That one liner was enough to shake everyone present. The person was clearly someone of precedence.

“All hail, young governor! All hail, young governor!”

The thousands of people who had gathered at the portal bowed.

It was obvious that the governor’s position in Silver Plume City was very high.

A row of about a dozen people walked towards the spot where Chen Xiaobei was standing. The person in the lead was the Silver Plume young master, Dong Xiaowu.

This young man was exactly like his father Dong Zhuo – he was also overweight. However, little fatty Dong did not share his father’s stern looks. On the contrary, he was rather plain-looking.

However, the men behind him were all very attractive, clad in metal armors, guarding their young governor as if they were protecting a god.

“Young master, are you kidding? Why are you leaving the group?” Lu Changwei asked.

Everyone who had been watching pricked up their ears, all eager to find out why Dong Xiaowu would withdraw from the team because of Chen Xiaobei.

What was it about this this foreigner Chen Xiaobei that the Goddess Muyue respected him that much and did everything she could to protect him? And that the young governor would be willing to give up his place in the team for him?

This was absolutely mind-boggling!

“I’m not really that interested in hunting. If my father had not ordered me to come, I wouldn’t even have come!” Dong Xiaowu said. “If I could discuss ink brush painting techniques with Mr. Chen throughout this insipid operation, it would add so much excitement for me and that this trip would be so much more worthwhile! Of course, I would want to go with Mr. Chen!”

Even though Dong Xiaowu was the young governor and got to enjoy an abundance of resources, his cultivation was only middle phase of Celestial Cultivation, 100,000 combat power.

It was evident that Dong Xiaowu was not serious about cultivating.

People who knew him would have known that Dong Xiaowu was very fond of Sumukhwa!

During the last time they met, Chen Xiaobei had sold the draft of the Painting Ride that Carries Victory and sent this little fatty over the moon.

Dong Xiaowu had said that he owed Chen Xiaobei a favor, and if Chen Xiaobei was in any sort of trouble, he could always ask him for help.

At this very moment, Chen Xiaobei was in a sort of a hairy situation and Dong Xiaowu stepped up to the plate. Clearly, this little fatty was quite loyal. He would make a very good friend!

“All hail, young governor!”

Chen Xiaobei had always been one to be amenable to coaxing, but not coercion. When he saw the young governor’s display of allegiance, Chen Xiaobei made it a point to be extra courteous.

“You are one of us, Mr. Chen! There’s no need to be so polite!” Dong Xiaowu chuckled. “If the others refuse to accept Mr. Chen, it’s better for Mr. Chen to form his own team. I believe a lot of people would be willing to join!”

“My own team?”

Chen Xiaobei was baffled for a moment.

“I’m willing to join!”

Wenren Muyue raised her hand like a student answering a teacher’s question in the classroom, eager and enthusiastic.

“Me too!”

Miao Yiyue piped in.

With Dong Xiaowu running the show, the Miao family members joined Chen Xiaobei’s side without another word.

“We are willing to join too!”

Another 10 men came over.

The first two were people Chen Xiaobei had met before. One was Qin Luo from East Temple, and the other one was Wei Ruilong from North Temple!

These two had met Chen Xiaobei once during the auction.

Lu Changwei had looked down on them at that time, and when Chen Xiaobei humiliated Lu Changwei on the spot, these two people had formed a very good impression of Chen Xiaobei. They had wanted to treat Chen Xiaobei to a drink but they never got the chance to.

Of course, the others present did not know this, thus they were all very shocked.

Goddess Muyue, the young governor, East Temple’s Qin Luo, North Temple Wei Ruilong, and West Temple Miao Yiyue, were all siding Chen Xiaobei!

This was a major eye opener to all the eye witnesses around them.

“Why the hell are the both of you kicking up a fuss? Didn’t you say that you were going to join my team?” Lu Changwei asked in frustration.

“Master Wei, don’t you forget that when you invited us, you told us that you’ve invited the young governor. We only joined you because of the young governor! Now that he’s joining Mr. Chen, it’s only reasonable for us to follow him!” Both Qin Luo and Wei Ruilong said.

“Nonsense! How could you possibly have a future if you join them?”

Lu Changwei’s brows creased.

“No future?” Qin Luo narrowed his eyes. “The whole Silver Plume city follows the governor! Are you sure we would have no future following the young governor?”

“Ah? That’s not what I meant!” Lu Changwei shook his head profusely.

Dong Xiaowu only had 100,000 combat power, so Lu Changwei did not think anything of him.

But Dong Xiaowu’s father, Dong Zhao, was the ruler that the Northern Wilderness Temple had appointed to watch over Silver Plume planet.

This reason alone was enough for Lu Changwei not to mess with Dong Xiaowu.

“Alright! The portal is going to open soon! Let’s go with Mr. Chen!”

Wei Ruilong grinned.

Lu Changwei’s face turned green at this.

He had thought that he could rope in the young governor and the three other Star Temple people, but because he kicked Chen Xiaobei out, he lost all of these people.

A few minutes ago, Lu Changwei had worn a really smug smile on his face, but right now, his face was an ugly shade of red, similar to that of a dog who had just lost its bone. He felt like a joke in front of all these people.

This was one of the worst slaps to the face he had ever experienced.

“Wait! Everyone please wait!” Lu Changwei was very reluctant, but Lu Mingjun had already given the ultimatum that he could not allow them to walk away just like that!

Lu Changwei quickly rushed over to Chen Xiaobei’s team with arms wide opened, blocking their way!

“Changwei, what is the meaning of this?” Dong Xiaowu asked, his tone disapproving.

“Thi… This is all a misunderstanding. I hope that Mr. Chen could come with me, and I also hope that everyone can come with me!” Lu Changwei said brazenly.

“That is up to Mr. Chen!” Dong Xiaowu said.

Lu Changwei turned to Chen Xiaobei and said, “Mr. Chen! I am inviting sincerely, to join me in this Elite Hunting Competition!”

“Heh! You are so quick to change your tune? Didn’t you just call me a dipshit just now?” Chen Xiaobei retorted.

“A misunderstanding! This is all a misunderstanding!” Lu Changwei cried desperately.

“You called me dipshit in front of all these people! You call that a misunderstanding?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

“Yes! It’s a misunderstanding! It really is a misunderstanding! I always speak without filter my mouth, so I always say the wrong thing! It really is just a misunderstanding! Owww!”

Lu Changwei argued stubbornly, but before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly cried out in pain.

Smack!

Chen Xiaobei had planted a slap on Lu Changwei’s face!

Everyone, including Dong Xiaowu, was dumbfounded.

“You… How dare you hit me?!”

Lu Changwei was caught off guard and was thrown to the ground.

“I can’t control my hands sometimes, and often accidentally hit the wrong people. Is this a misunderstanding?” Chen Xiaobei replied, half a smile plastered on his face.
