Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 773: Chapter 771, Sudden Enlightenment

”Brother Wang?”

Xu Wendong’s face was full of surprise.

Wang Meng, a subordinate of Lu You, the Third Boss of Azure Dragon Stronghold, had gone to Jingdu a few days ago to inform Xu Wendong that Yao Tian was targeting him.

”It’s not... How did you end up in the Kunlun Mountains Minor World?” Wang Meng wore a look of disbelief. He had clearly informed Xu Wendong that Yao Tian was targeting him.

Logically, Xu Wendong should have hidden his identity to avoid Yao Tian’s revenge.

But who would have thought that he would do the opposite and directly enter the Kunlun Mountains Minor World?

How was this any different from knowingly walking into a tiger’s den?

However.

Entering the Kunlun Mountains Minor World might not be a bad thing after all, Yao Tian probably couldn’t imagine he would do the opposite, right?

Xu Wendong smiled and said, ”The secular world was too dull, I wanted to broaden my horizons.”

Wang Meng didn’t say much more. In their view, although the secular world was indeed prosperous and the technological advancements unbelievable, for cultivators, the Kunlun Mountains Minor World was the true Holy Land for cultivation.

Wang Meng changed the topic, ”Come on, let me introduce you to our Third Boss. He’s currently on vacation in Mingyue City. If he sees you, he should be very pleased.”

”Sure!” Xu Wendong was also very interested in the Third Boss of Azure Dragon Stronghold, so he followed Wang Meng to a bustling restaurant in the city.

There were few tall buildings in Mingyue City, but there were a few, and although the highest was only nine stories, it stood out strikingly.

Arriving at the restaurant, Xu Wendong saw Lu You.

A middle-aged man with sharp features and a dignified appearance.

He sat by the window, drinking alone.

Wang Meng approached with a smile and said, ”Third Boss, let me introduce you; this is Xu Wendong, Young Master Xu from the secular world.”

”Hmm?” Lu You, who had been gazing out the window, instinctively turned his head, his eyes filled with a flicker of surprise. He sized up Xu Wendong, revealing a meaningful smile, ”Brother Xu is truly unconventional and unique!”

He was marveling at Xu Wendong’s choice to enter the Kunlun Mountains Minor World, a decision most would not have the courage to make.

Xu Wendong chuckled, ”I was forced to a desperate situation.”

Lu You shrugged, ”If Brother Xu was truly forced to a desperate situation, you certainly wouldn’t have been able to escape Yao Tian’s grasp.”

Clearly, he sensed Yao Tian’s aura on Xu Wendong and knew they had clashed before.

This only piqued his curiosity about Xu Wendong even more.

After all, not everyone who encounters Yao Tian manages to escape his grasp.

He gestured invitingly, ”Brother Xu, please have a seat!”

Xu Wendong didn’t hesitate and took the seat opposite Lu You, ”Thank you for sending Brother Wang to deliver the message to me.”

Lu You smiled, ”As it turns out, sending Wang Meng to deliver the message to you was a wise choice. I have a feeling that it won’t be long before Brother Xu becomes a renowned expert.”

This wasn’t just a pleasantry, but heartfelt.

For cultivators, fortune was crucial, and Xu Wendong’s ability to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Stage in the secular world showed just how abundant his fortune was. After all, the secular world had just gone through The Age of Dharma Decline, where spiritual energy was scarce.

Yet, he managed to successfully reach the Foundation Establishment Stage at a young age, a talent and opportunity not everyone possessed.

Of course.

Talent and fortune alone weren’t enough for growth.

One needed the boldness and wisdom that ordinary people didn’t possess.

Just the fact that Xu Wendong knew Yao Tian was targeting him, yet he did the opposite by entering the Kunlun Mountains Minor World, showed his courage and intelligence.

Such a person, how could he not grow into a renowned super expert?

He was relieved he didn’t let the allure of a magic artifact go to his head.

He chose not to become an enemy of Xu Wendong.

”Brother Xu, please try out the delicacies unique to our Kunlun Mountains Minor World.” Lu You beamed with a smile, warmly inviting Xu Wendong to savor the unique delicacies of the Kunlun Mountains Minor World.

He even had Wang Meng pour him a drink.

Xu Wendong didn’t stand on ceremony, as the past few days trekking through the Kunlun Mountains had only allowed him to replenish some food, far from the hot, steaming meals.

After pouring the drink, Wang Meng said, ”The culinary culture of our Kunlun Mountains Minor World, while not as diverse and flavorful as the secular world, has its own unique taste.”

Having visited the secular world, he had sampled much of its cuisine.

Although those delicacies had left a good impression on him, in his heart, the food of the Kunlun Mountains Minor World was irreplaceable.

”The flavors here are somewhat bland, not overwhelmed by excessive seasonings, highlighting the original taste of the ingredients, which is quite nice.”

Xu Wendong gave high praise. Although the flavors here leaned towards the bland side, the original taste of the ingredients was greatly magnified.

Frankly speaking, the dishes here could hold their ground in the secular culinary world and even achieve a high status.

What Xu Wendong liked most was the drink.

The alcohol here wasn’t very strong, lacking the harsh, burning sensation, entering smoothly and with a sweet aftertaste, much superior even to the so-called Moutai.

This gave him a newfound respect for the culinary culture of the Minor World. He initially thought the people here lived in a closed, backward era and that their culinary culture would be inferior to the outside world, but never imagined the vast differences between the two.

This left Xu Wendong sitting there like a statue.

He thought of Dao Law.

Three thousand Dao Laws.

Everyone’s understanding of Dao Law had different meanings.

And now, he seemed to understand what Dao was.

Dao Law was like those colorful and flavorful dishes in the secular world.

Also like the seemingly ordinary, bland dishes before him.

They were all the Dao.

But true Dao shouldn’t be burdened with too much.

Dao Law valued simplicity.

Dao Law was natural!

At that moment, Xu Wendong suddenly felt a transformation in his mindset, and a faint sense of transcendence emanated from him.

This left Lu You, who sat opposite, with wide eyes.

Holy crap!

What did that mean?

This guy actually exuded Daoist charm?

Although the Daoist charm emanating from Xu Wendong wasn’t very strong, it was a symbol of a Golden Core Period Expert.

He couldn’t understand, just by inviting him to taste some dishes, this guy had a Sudden Enlightenment?

This talent...

Who the hell wouldn’t envy that?

As Lu You stared in shock at him, Xu Wendong came back to his senses. He apologized with a smile, ”Sorry, Brother Lu, I lost myself for a moment. I toast you with this cup, and thank you for your reminder.”

”From now on, if you ever need anything from Mr. Xu, please don’t hesitate to ask.”

”Hahaha!” Lu You burst into laughter, ”If you say so, then I won’t stand on ceremony!”

He had sent Wang Meng to deliver the message to Xu Wendong, not wanting to offend a potential master, only to find he had gained a significant favor.

This deal was truly worth it!

The two clinked glasses and drank, then Lu You’s expression became serious, ”Brother Xu, there’s something I must warn you about.”

”From what I know about Yao Tian, he definitely won’t let you go, and he might even issue an Azure Dragon Order to hunt you down!”

Xu Wendong curiously asked, ”What is the Azure Dragon Order?”
