Chapter 790 - 790 Burning Noble Restaurant

Shun Long nodded his head, and under the eyes of all the surrounding experts present, he followed Murong Tian out of the 'White tiger chamber of commerce', as they headed for the 'Burning noble restaurant'.

''What does that guy want with the Murong family? Don't tell me that he intends to join them...'' The Sovereign realm expert from 'Lord Zhu's garden', senior Xiao mumbled in a low voice as he watched Shun Long and Murong Tian leisurely walk out of the 'White tiger chamber of commerce'.

Of course, it was no wonder that 'senior Xiao' would be worried about this.

After all, the Murong family already had 2 Sovereign realm experts and Murong Tian himself was already on the cusp of breaking through to the Sovereign realm. If another Sovereign realm expert really joined them, especially if that person was a middle-stage Sovereign, then the Murong family could truly start becoming a threat to the other peak powers in the northern part of the central region.

The beautiful silver-haired woman from the 'White ice city' shook her head while her eyes were staring intensely at Shun Long's back, almost as if she was trying to discern his identity behind his black robes, before she answered calmly a few moments later

''That's unlikely. Even if that person really is a rogue cultivator, there is no reason for him to choose to join the Murong family when he could join any of us. He probably has something to take care of in Murong city that requires Murong Tian's help.''

The 7th general of the Northern Sovereign's army, Zi Hu nodded his head as he agreed with her, and after he threw one last look at Zhuan Jie, he snorted before he left the 'White tiger chamber of commerce'.

Zhuan Jie had a murderous look in his eyes as he stared at Zi Hu's back, before he too left the building a few moments later.

..

The 'Burning noble restaurant' was located in the heart of Murong city, and it was the biggest and most luxurious restaurant inside the city.

In fact, this restaurant was owned by the Murong family, and only cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage or above were allowed to step foot into its premises.

However, the reason why Murong Tian chose this restaurant to meet with Shun Long wasn't because it was owned by the Murong family.

Instead, it was because of how close this place was to the Murong estate.

If Shun Long really had any bad intentions, Murong Tian could simply retreat back to the Murong estate where the 2 Sovereign realm experts of the Murong family were cultivating.

By then, even a Sovereign realm expert wouldn't have a chance to kill him.

The moment that Murong Tian appeared in front of the 'Burning noble restaurant', the waiters at the entrance all stared at him in disbelief, before one of them bowed and called out in a trembling voice

''P-Patriarch!''

Murong Tian didn't even throw a single glance at the waiter as he turned around to look at Shun Long behind him and said

''Let's go inside.''

The moment that the manager of the 'Burning noble restaurant' heard that the patriarch of the Murong family had come to visit, the manager hurriedly came out to welcome him, before he personally led Murong Tian and Shun Long to the best private room of the restaurant.

''Patriarch, if there is anything you need, you can simply call for me. I will be waiting right outside!'' The manager said respectfully as he bowed deeply at Murong Tian.

In reality, the manager of the 'Burning noble restaurant' was also a member of the Murong family, which was why he was even more respectful to Murong Tian than the waiters.

Murong Tian waved his hand in a dismissive manner without even looking at the manager, as his eyes stared calmly at Shun Long.

The manager then bowed and closed the doors of the private room without daring to say another word, leaving just Murong Tian and the black-robed Shun Long inside the private room

Seeing that it was just the 2 of them left, Murong Tian stared at Shun Long and said calmly

''Fellow daoist, now that it's just the 2 of us left, I hope that you can be sincere enough to reveal your identity to me.''

Although Murong Tian's voice was calm and unhurried, Shun Long could sense that his aura was the exact opposite, as it was about to explode at any time.

The moment that Shun Long tried to attack him, Murong Tian would either choose to retaliate if he could, or if the gap between them was really as big as he thought, he would then do everything he could to leave the 'Burning noble restaurant' and retreat back to the Murong estate.

Of course, Shun Long wasn't surprised that Murong Tian didn't seem to trust him one bit.

After all, it wouldn't make sense for him to trust him, when Shun Long hadn't even shown his face to him.

At the same time, Shun Long knew, that the main reason why Murong Tian had agreed to meet with him, was because Murong Tian couldn't sense his strength and didn't want to offend him just yet, and because as the patriarch of the Murong family, he naturally wouldn't show weakness in public for no reason.

As the patriarch of the Murong family, if he avoided meeting someone simply because of that person's strength, Murong Tian wouldn't only end up offending a Sovereign realm expert, but he would even end up becoming a laughingstock in Murong city.

Besides, since they were still within the premises of Murong city, even if the person who wanted to meet with him was a middle-stage Sovereign realm expert, Murong Tian was certain that Shun Long couldn't instakill him unless he was someone at the same level as the old ancestor of the Murong family!

But of course, the number of experts who were at the same level as the old ancestor of the Murong family in the northern part of the central region were less than 20, and Murong Tian knew that it was unlikely for Shun Long to be one of them.

Nodding his head, Shun Long smiled before he removed his black robes.
