BLOODLINE TEMPERING: Transforming From Worm To Dragon

Chapter 37: Wang Yun

"I don't think there's a name written on any of the seats here. Plus, there are so many seats nearby, why do you insist on using this table?" Chen Tu had a slight irritation in his voice when responding to them.

Although he could simply return to the counter to grab another plate of food, it was still a provocating action from them to slap his breakfast off the table.

It might be a few steamed buns and a plate of stir-fried vegetables, but to Chen Tu, this kind of food is something he hardly got to eat back in the Chen Family Manor.

"Who are you to question what we do? Are you deaf, huh? I said, this table is reserved for our young master Wang!" the disciple continued. His hand was already on its way to Chen Tu's collar at the end of his sentence.

"Who is that young master Wang?" Chen Tu asked. The disciple's action had gotten into Chen Tu's bad side, and he retaliated by grabbing that hand in a flash. Additionally, Chen Tu waved his hand off the table, slapping the disciple's face on purpose.

The slap caught the disciple by surprise. At this instant, the disciple's face is burning with anger because he can't believe there's someone dared to go against them in this Outer Grotto.

To their surprise, someone here has no idea who young master Wang is.

(Couldn't he at least make a guess from looking at their feature? Would anyone with low social status have four disciples running errands for him?)

"No wonder you dare to go against us!" said another disciple. The four of them don't appear to have a difference in their status, based solely on how outspoken they are.

Borrowing the momentum while Chen Tu was disturbed by their words, another disciple decided to make a move on Chen Tu again. And this time, it completely provoked Chen Tu.

"Let me see what kind of background your young master had, then!" Chen Tu retaliated. His hand swiftly grabbed the disciple's neck. Before anyone could react, Chen Tu slammed the disciple onto the wooden table, crashing that wooden table in the process.

"He actually fought back! Had he got tired of living?"

"Let's go! If Wang Yun is here, all of us will get caught in this matter!"

"This guy actually dare to go Wang Yun's interest. Who the hell he is?"

Everyone was surprised by Chen Tu's response. His counterattack came too abruptly, not allowing anyone to calm their heart down. At the same time, the spectators immediately distanced themselves from the spot.

After all, there's no promise that "Wang Yun" will be reasonable upon arrival if he were to see what happened here. Additionally, how could those here have no idea what kind of personality "Wang Yun" had?

Regardless of willingness, there's a possibility of getting pulled along into the matter.

Chen Tu was also surprised by the lack of reaction from the enforcement team. Based on his understanding, a minimum of two to four guards should be assigned to all departmental buildings. This was no secret amongst the disciples because the job was available to be picked up each morning from Mission Hall.

But to have no guards coming to intervene...

This means the young master Wang behind them is likely to possess quite a formidable status inside this Outer Grotto.

If that was not the case, then what could that be? This matter also made Chen Tu show interest in Wang Yun.

"What happened here? I thought all I asked was to reserve my favorite seat." the voice from an individual traveled all the way from the back of the crowd. As if some important individual had appeared, the spectators quickly dispersed and opened a path for the owner of that voice to come forward.

"Yo - Young master!" three of the followers quickly half-kneeled before the person called Wang Yun with their heads lowered.

Most of the crowd immediately scattered and left the canteen, leaving only a few busybodies unafraid of getting involved in this matter.

"Looks like you're the one who beat my men. What is your name?" Wang Yun asked. He was curious.

As one of the little overlords in Outer Grotto, how can anyone dare to make a move on his people? Perhaps, this guy was a direct disciple of the grand elders or Grotto Master?

Wang Yun was curious. He couldn't think of other reasons for Chen Tu to dare to go against him.

"Chen Tu." Chen Tu answered without giving him any respect. Since they were about the same age, why should he introduce himself while being overly respectful?

"Oh... Its fellow disciple Chen Tu. Could you be someone from the second elder's family?" Wang Yun responded amiably. Of course, he did that on purpose to mock Chen Tu.

Except for new disciples that joined recently, who here don't know that the second elder Chen was a lone wolf? Let alone family members. He doesn't even have a disciple.

Wang Yun's reason for doing this was to openly attack Chen Tu, starting from his social background. As a part of the first elder Wang's family, how can Wang Yun's status be lower than the rest of the disciples here?

Even the others only came from humble backgrounds, such as being a member of some wealthy or medium to large families from associated settlements.

"No. I'm not." Chen Tu answered. He didn't even meet the second elder before, so how could he have any connection with the person Wang Yun mentioned? But at the same time, it's not like Chen Tu's background is low either.

If he wanted, he could simply reveal that he was an unofficial disciple of Elder Wei Xuan, and this matter would quickly be forgotten. After all, how can a disciple of an elder be underestimated?

"Hahaha... This is funny..." to everyone's surprise, Wang Yun actually laughed after hearing Chen Tu's reply. His laugh was almost hysterical, like he had heard something amusing and ridiculous.

"Since you're not a part of the second elder's faction, where did you get the guts to go against me? I am a part of the first elder's faction! I am Elder Wang Quan's second grandson!" Wang Yun suddenly raised his voice at Chen Tu.

"If I want to sit here, all the disciples in this Outer Grotto will yield to my will! Or else, Don't blame me if you're kicked out of the Blood Refining Grotto!" he added.
