Chapter 569: Chapter 257 Homecoming_2

Then, to everyone’s surprise, he really took another roast chicken from his bosom and began to munch on it happily.

“The gifts weren’t delivered?”

A voice came from behind him.

The old man didn’t turn around but just tore off the chicken’s butt, carefully picked it clean, and then stuffed it into his mouth, chewing with a mouthful of grease:

“He didn’t want it, so I couldn’t very well force it on him, could I?”

“You’ve been idling away with a game of Go for more than forty years, having spent over thirty of those years right here in Donghuang.

“The things you set out to find remain unfound, so how many moves do you have left on the board now?”

“Heaven and earth serve as the board, all living beings as the pieces.”

The old man said this, tore off a chicken head, and turned to look at the young man sitting above in the boat cabin:

“Xiao Liu, I invite you to eat the chicken head.”

He reached out and tossed it, and with a buzz, the chicken head soared towards the young man.

The young man simply spread his hand, and the chicken head was caught between his two fingers.

After looking at the chicken head, he shook his head gently:

“A chicken head or a phoenix’s tail is not what I desire… Keep the chicken head for yourself to eat.”

With a flick of his hand power, the chicken head was sent flying away.

It looked less like it was being offered as food and more like an attempt to penetrate the old man with it.

The old man just turned around, opened his mouth, and caught the chicken head in his mouth, followed by tilting his head back and starting to crunch away.

After finishing eating, he muttered:

“Young people these days always aim too high, whether it’s eating, playing Go, or walking, you must take it step by step.

“This chess game of Donghuang is becoming more and more interesting.”

“I’m just afraid there are too many variables, and it’s already out of your control.”

“That’s precisely what’s interesting.”

The old man didn’t mind, looked up at the young man, and saw that he had already turned to leave.

But his voice came through:

“Once you’ve finished eating, you better head back early. If you keep flaunting yourself, he is no ordinary opponent, be careful you can’t even make it back to Xizhou.”

“If I can’t make it back, then I can’t make it back. What’s so precious about that?”

The old man muttered under his breath, tore off another chicken leg, put it in his mouth, and raised his eyes to the mountains and rivers ahead, seemingly quite content.

…

…

Three Rivers Bay Pier.

After counting and ensuring that not a single person was missing, Su Mo found Manager Zhan to bid farewell.

“Why doesn’t Su, the Chief of the Escort, join us on the boat?

“After all, this boat still has to make a trip to the Luofeng Alliance.”

Manager Zhan seemed a bit reluctant to part.

Su Mo smiled: “I’m used to traveling by land, and besides, with so many of us on the boat eating and drinking, Manager Zhan, you refused to take payment, how could I have the face to impose and stay longer?”

“If I had known this, I would have accepted some scattered silver from you, just to keep our honored guest for a few more days.”

Manager Zhan gave a bitter smile.

“There will always be opportunities in the future.”

Su Mo said with a smile: “When I head to the South Sea one day, if fate allows me to see Manager Zhan again, I will surely be a nuisance to you then.”

“We must hold you to that.”

Manager Zhan nodded immediately and thought for a moment before taking out a token from his bosom.

Su Mo was speechless for a moment, as he now felt a headache whenever he saw tokens.

His little bag was already filled with various tokens.

It started with the Phoenix Order from the Luofeng Alliance, followed by the Sword Division Order from the Sword Nourishing Hut, and when he went to the Heavenly Blade Sect, he received the Heavenly Blade Token.

After returning to the Ziyang Sect, he took the Ziyang Order.

Little Situ also excitedly gave him a token from the Xuanhu Pavilion.

Later on, he acquired the Yin Yang Life and Death Order.

After all is said and done, that made for seven tokens already.

Now Manager Zhan was also offering a token, handing it over to Su Mo:

“This is the Guest Token, jointly issued by the Hundred Merchants Association in the South Sea.

“As the name suggests, with this token, you will be treated as a distinguished guest at any merchant of the association’s members.

“I dare not say that they will fulfill all requests, but for replenishing supplies or adding some items to the boat, they will surely be able to satisfy you.

“The most important thing is, it won’t cost a penny.

“Our small shop is also one of the hundred, so I too have such a token.

“Su, the Chief of the Escort, please accept this. If one day you really set foot in the South Sea, this token will help you find me.”

Hearing this, Su Mo could only reach out and take it:

“Then I thank Manager Zhan.”

“You’re too kind.”

Manager Zhan let out a light sigh: “In that case, I shall prepare a banquet in the South Sea and await the grand arrival of Su!”

“Good, then I’ll see you in the future!”

“See you in the future!”

After a bow and bidding farewell, Manager Zhan was the first to leave.

It seemed he couldn’t wait to sell the goods from Donghuang to the sea.

Su Mo stood at the pier, sending him off first.

After a long gaze, he looked at the token in his hand, pondered for a while, and then put it into his little bag.

Turning around, he led a large group and left the Three Rivers Bay Pier directly.

As for the journey to Luoxia City, we don’t mention it…

Traveling on, there wasn’t much to say.

It’s just that along the way, one would occasionally hear rumors about Su Mo.

The same two tales were being spun into numerous variations.

In the inns and teahouses, it was one thing for ordinary people of Jianghu to discuss fervently.

Storytellers took all this and crafted many books and dozens of Chapters, telling one Chapter a day without repeating a word.

Su Mo, on his journey, heard different storytellers narrate his tale.

The stories varied and even their depiction of his image was different.
