Chapter 1556 So what if you're coming? Why be so polite...
"It seems that you guys are the ones who are more impatient."
Chen Mu sensed that aura, and he thought to himself.
Unsurprisingly, the aura of the mountain and water courtyard belongs to none other than Chief Zhao Xingyu, the spokesperson for the Lake of Fallen Gods!
Chen Mu originally planned to visit the Lake of Fallen Gods after returning.
Chen Mu was still thinking about what reason he should use to go there so as not to seem too eager.
I didn't expect that when I was anxious, the other party was even more anxious!
Before he could even go to Zhao Xingyu's door, Zhao Xingyu came to him first.
That's perfect, let's resolve this now!
Chen Mu gathered his thoughts and flew towards the direction of the mountain and water courtyard.
In less than a minute, Chen Mu flew over the villa.
Zhao Xingyu, accompanied by several Ghost Kings, was standing in Chen Mu's courtyard, waiting.
"Why didn't they come alone? It's not wartime, so why bring so many Ghost Kings?"
Chen Mu frowned slightly, wondering if he was here to show off his muscles.
Chen Mu landed slowly and arrived in his courtyard.
Zhao Xingyu and his group in the courtyard also felt Chen Mu's aura.
As soon as Zhao Xingyu turned around, he saw Chen Mu appear behind him.
Zhao Xingyu was slightly startled. He remembered that when he first met Chen Mu, he could feel Chen Mu's presence even from a great distance.
And now, less than a year has passed.
Chen Mu appeared behind him and deliberately released his aura, which is why he noticed him.
This shows that Chen Mu's strength has undergone a tremendous change.
If Chen Mu were to ambush him now, he would probably punch him from behind before he even realizes someone is behind him!
Thinking of this, Zhao Xingyu couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
Boss Chen is indeed a young hero! Every time we meet, I can feel that Boss Chen's strength is growing rapidly.
At that moment, Zhao Xingyu, with a broad smile, cupped his hands in greeting to Chen Mu and said:
"Boss Chen, how have you been? It's been a while, and your strength has improved quite a bit."
Chen Mu greeted him with a smile, "I've only improved my strength a little, it's nothing to brag about. No matter how strong I am, I can't fight against four people with two fists."
Chen Mu's words were actually a veiled reference to Zhao Xingyu for bringing so many Ghost Kings to his home.
Anyone would feel uneasy if a bunch of burly men came to their house, not knowing if they were carrying knives.
Zhao Xingyu truly deserves to be the spokesperson chosen by the Lake of Fallen Gods.
In terms of emotional intelligence, she is far superior to Shen Hanmeng, who is dedicated to the pursuit of truth.
As soon as Chen Mu finished speaking, Zhao Xingyu understood what he meant.
Zhao Xingyu quickly clapped his hands and explained to Chen Mu with a smile, "Boss Chen, two fists can't beat four hands, but Boss Chen, you have four hands, not two fists."
Looking around this area, who isn't Boss Chen's friend?
These words categorized Zhao Xingyu himself, as well as these few Ghost Kings, as Chen Mu's friends.
That wasn't enough. Zhao Xingyu turned around and said to the Ghost Kings, "Everyone, bring out your things. These are just small gifts; Boss Chen probably won't even look at them, but they represent the goodwill of the Lake of Fallen Gods."
The several demon kings behind him immediately took out the gifts they were carrying.
Each of the Ghost Kings carried a beautifully wrapped gift in both hands.
Chen Mu immediately recognized that this was a packaging bag made from pure, strange energy!
The use of this kind of packaging bag shows that the other party really put in effort.
Zhao Xingyu said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, we humans have a custom of bringing gifts when visiting relatives and friends."
Moreover, the most polite way to bring gifts is to carry one in each hand.
Although what we brought this time is simple, there's a lot of it. It's all local specialties from the Lake of Fallen Gods. Mr. Chen is used to eating delicacies, so he'll want to cleanse his palate with some local specialties.
To show how important it was, each of us, the Demon King, carried one in each hand.
So quite a few of the "ghost kings" came, all bringing local specialties to give Boss Chen a change of pace.
Zhao Xingyu's words were perfectly tactful.
The fact that he brought several ghost kings is interpreted as a courtesy to Chen Mu during his visit.
Chen Mu was indeed impeccable, his manners were impeccable.
Although Chen Mu had never heard of the saying "carrying one in each hand is the most polite," the fact that someone brought the Ghost King to present gifts to Chen Mu in a way that "wastes Ghost Power" was indeed a form of respect.
Chen Mu nodded; he could sense that these gifts were quite valuable.
It's estimated that these packages probably contain quite a few spring bamboo shoots.
Last time, Chen Mu tasted the stir-fried tea leaves and thought they were pretty good. Later, he tried some raw tea leaves to cleanse his palate, and they were indeed fresh, crisp, and sweet.
Zhao Xingyu came several times, seeking favors from Chen Mu, and was even tricked by him once. Through long-term exposure and influence, he has become more principled and meticulous in his actions.
Chen Mu extended his hand, "Please come in, everyone. It's freezing outside. Let's talk inside."
Led by Chen Mu, the group entered the warm living room.
Zhao Xingyu gave the Ghost Kings a wink, signaling them to neatly place the gifts in the corner.
Then the group sat around the sofa, and Chen Mu asked Xu Yueji to serve tea to everyone.
At this moment, Cha Cha and Xiao tide, who had heard the commotion, also came down from the second floor.
Upon seeing Chacha, Zhao Xingyu immediately smiled and pulled out two ancient books from his pocket.
"Lord Guizun, you mentioned last time that you were very interested in ancient books. So I brought two with me this time, I don't know if they will suit your taste."
Mr. Guizun?
Hearing such an unfamiliar address, Chen Mu was stunned for a moment before realizing that it sounded like Cha Cha.
Wait... is Chacha the Demon Lord?
Chen Mu realized that he had been spending every day with this girl and had almost forgotten that she was actually a top-tier expert at the Ghostly Venerable level.
There's also Xiao tide, who is a super strong person at the Ghost King level.
And that cat, it's also a demon lord.
Spending so much time together, Chen Mu almost forgot what a powerful fighting force he had gathered around him.
Cha Cha didn't reach out to take it, but obediently looked at Chen Mu first, waiting for his consent.
It's clear that Cha Cha is quite tactful in public and didn't put Chen Mu in a difficult position.
Chen Mu nodded in agreement, "It's rare for Chief Zhao to show such kindness, so hurry up and thank him."
It has to be said that Zhao Xingyu really did his homework this time.
They also brought gifts for those around Chen Mu. It seems they won't give up until they've taken down Chen Mu.
By the way, where's Xiaoxi? Where did she go?
Chen Mu noticed that after Xiao tide ran downstairs, she immediately ran towards the pile of gifts in the corner.
At that moment, Xiaoxi was sneakily moving a gift behind the sofa.
The angle was perfect; it blocked Zhao Xingyu's view perfectly, while also allowing Chen Mu to see it.
What is Xiaoxi trying to do? Is there something wrong with these gifts?
