Chapter 1468: Chapter 1465: Refusing a Toast Only to Drink a Forfeit

Wang Tong reached out and grabbed the front of Xu Wendong’s clothes, his gaze as cold as a knife: ”Can’t you see, I’m robbing you?”

???

Xu Wendong was stunned.

Truly stunned.

He never expected.

That he would be robbed.

Moreover.

The assailant was a master from the City Defense Camp.

This was supposed to be a master protecting the city’s residents!

And now.

He unabashedly showed his greed and robbed him.

Although he was extremely disgusted and repulsed by the other’s abuse of power, Xu Wendong knew well the saying that one must bow when living under another’s roof, and dared not confront him.

He said with a look of panic: ”To the senior, this junior has just ascended to the Immortal Realm and has nothing worthwhile in hand.”

Boom!

With a casual wave, Wang Tong sent Xu Wendong flying hard.

He only stopped when he hit the wall.

His internal vital energy surged, and a sweet metallic taste rose in his mouth.

In front of a Heavenly Immortal.

Even with an Ancient Sacred Body, he was no match.

He could not resist at all.

Before Xu Wendong could get up, Wang Tong appeared in front of him, stamping on his chest, looking down on him: ”You just ascended to the Immortal Realm and could take out a High Grade Immortal Device, which shows your extraordinary fortune in the Mortal World.”

”I don’t believe you only have that one High Grade Immortal Device.”

”Besides, if that were your only High Grade Immortal Device, how could you give it to Junior Sister Lu?”

His eyes were indifferent: ”Xu, I advise you not to be ungrateful. Hand over your treasure obediently.”

”In that case, I will help you register.”

”On the contrary, you will not become a resident of the Underground City.”

”Do you know what it means to you if you can’t become a resident of the Underground City?”

Xu Wendong weakly said: ”It means I will be kicked out.”

”You’re quite clever.” Wang Tong sneered: ”If you cannot become a resident of the Underground City, in three months you’ll be kicked out and thereafter you won’t set foot in the Underground City again!”

”So, be smart!”

”If you can give me a High Grade Immortal Device, I will let you become a citizen of the Underground City.”

”Otherwise, be prepared to be kicked out in three months!”

”You’re just an ant ascending from the Cultivation World. No one will care about your life or death.”

Xu Wendong forced a smile: ”Senior, if I truly had a High Grade Immortal Device, I would definitely give it to you, but... I already gave that one to Miss Lu.”

”I still have some Immortal Stones and herbs here. If you need them, they’re all yours as a tribute.” With that, he took out a storage treasure he had seized last night while hunting Other Races. Inside were some Immortal Stones and herbs.

”It seems you don’t want the easy way out.” Wang Tong snorted heavily: ”Since that’s the case, be prepared to be kicked out in three months!”

With that, he took the Storage Bag from Xu Wendong’s hand and swaggered out of Xu Wendong’s sight.

Watching Wang Tong’s departing figure, a cold glint appeared in Xu Wendong’s eyes. He felt the rejection and disdain of the Immortal Realm natives towards Cultivators.

Though he still had hundreds of High Grade Immortal Devices and Divine Artifacts.

He could easily resolve the issue by taking out just one.

And gain permanent residency in the Underground City.

But.

Was Xu Wendong the kind to blindly pursue safety?

There are some things he would never compromise on!

Moreover, he didn’t believe a camp leader from the City Defense Camp could cover the sky with one hand.

Afterwards.

Xu Wendong left his residence, made multiple inquiries, and then arrived at the City Defense Camp.

Because to permanently live in the Underground City, he had to register here.

Equivalent to a police station on Earth, you need identity verification to take on tasks in the city and earn Contribution Points.

Without identity verification, it definitely wouldn’t work.

However.

When the people at the City Defense Camp learned the name ”Xu Wendong,” they all tactfully expressed that his identity was questionable and required verification before registration.

Although they gave no specific timeframe for verification.

Xu Wendong understood clearly.

He had been specially ”cared for.”

This ignited a strong fury within him.

He hadn’t expected the people in the Immortal Realm to be a den of scoundrels too.

It was truly disillusioning.

”Damn it, I don’t believe you can really stop me from joining the Underground City.” Xu Wendong’s heart surged with strong anger, then he returned to his residence.

It was just in time for lunch.

Lu Shuling had also prepared lunch at home, a pot of stew, with spirit rice as the main course.

The sparkling translucent spirit rice exuded a rich aroma, whetting one’s appetite.

On ordinary days, Lu Shuling wouldn’t dare eat like this, especially since spirit rice is so expensive.

But since Xu Wendong had given her a High Grade Immortal Device, she had to be generous.

Seeing Xu Wendong return with a not-so-good complexion, Lu Shuling asked with concern: ”What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

Xu Wendong forced a smile and recounted what had happened earlier.

Upon hearing this, Lu Shuling’s face changed dramatically. She hadn’t expected Wang Tong to be so despicable, taking advantage of her absence to coerce Xu Wendong to hand over his treasures.

Moreover, he had instructed the City Defense Camp to refuse Xu Wendong’s registration.

”Wang Tong may be the captain of the City Defense Camp, but he has powerful backing, otherwise, he wouldn’t dare act so brazenly.” Lu Shuling pondered for a moment, taking out the High Grade Immortal Device Xu Wendong had given her, and said: ”I suggest you give this Immortal Device to Wang Tong. That way, you can join the Underground City.”

”Otherwise, he will sabotage you, and you won’t be able to join the Underground City.”

”If it really comes to that, you will be expelled in three months.”

Although she was reluctant to give this High Grade Immortal Device to Wang Tong, she knew Wang Tong was a man of his word. Since he had set his sights on Xu Wendong, he wouldn’t let him join the Underground City.

Xu Wendong nonchalantly replied: ”Miss Lu, since the sword has already been given to you, how can I take it back?”

Pausing, he curiously asked: ”By the way, are there any other ways to join the Underground City?”

Lu Shuling said: ”There are many ways to join the Underground City, but they are all extremely difficult.”

”For example, becoming an Alchemist and refining high-quality elixirs.”

”If you can get recognition from the Alchemy Hall, you can completely join the Underground City, and your status will certainly soar.”

”At that time, not only wouldn’t Wang Tong stop you from joining the Underground City, even the Camp Commander of the City Defense Camp wouldn’t dare keep you out.”

”In fact, Wang Tong would apologize to you and try to curry favor.”

Upon hearing this.

A spark flashed in Xu Wendong’s eyes as he heartily ate the Spirit Beast meat in front of him: ”Then I’ll first gain recognition from the Alchemy Hall!”

Lu Shuling was astonished, not expecting Xu Wendong to say such a thing. After pondering for a moment, she couldn’t help but say: ”Young Master Xu, gaining recognition from the Alchemy Hall is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. You’d better give up on this unrealistic idea.”

Xu Wendong’s lips curved into a charming smile: ”How will I know success or failure if I don’t try?”
