Chapter 2144: A Group of Children
Zhao Hai nodded, “That’s good. But that would mean that you would leave Roaring Flame City. What about the Blackwood Group?”
Chen Feng smiled and said, “Rest assured, the Blackwood Group’s matters won’t be ignored. Although I’m leaving Roaring Flame City, my status is different to before. As long as the people of the Long Clan know this, even if I leave, they will take care of the Blackwood Group, even better than before. Don’t forget, the Blackwood Group isn’t only on good terms with me, they have connections to you too. You are now working in Coiling Dragon City. For us, being able to work in Coiling Dragon City is an enviable thing. This is because you can get in close contact with the Long Clan.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “That’s good. Then I’m relieved. I’m afraid I won’t have much time to return to Roaring Flame City in the future. I only hope that the Blackwood Group can get better and better. Right, this is for you. Help me hand it over to Liu Wei. If the Blackwood Group needs us in the future, they can contact us.”
Chen Feng looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Zhao, I really admire you. The reason Brother Liu Wei founded the Blackwood Group is because he was born in Blackwood Alley. He wants to be of service to his community. What about you? Why are you helping them?”
Zhao Hai sighed and said, “Maybe it’s just something I want to do. The True Spirit Realm is full of people who take advantage of any situation, and they only pay attention to their own family or sect. For their friends or those who helped them, very few people would think of doing something in return. What Gang Leader Liu is doing, in my opinion, is really amazing. So I’m willing to lend him a hand.”
Chen Feng became silent when he heard Zhao Hai. Although he wasn’t a cultivator, he was someone who came in contact with cultivators daily. To be honest, when it comes to morals, cultivators seemed to have a certain lack of it. But there was no point in changing this. The True Spirit Realm was the world of cultivators. They ruled everything.
From what Chen Feng could hear, although Zhao Hai couldn’t change this, he was making his own effort. There weren’t a lot of people like Liu Wei in the True Spirit Realm. Moreover, in the eyes of the other cultivators, Liu Wei’s kind were a group of fools.
On the other hand, Zhao Hai thought differently. He appreciated Liu Wei’s efforts. Therefore, he used his advantages to help the Blackwood Group. At this moment, Chen Feng began to see that Zhao Hai was a bigger person than he thought.
Zhao Hai wasn’t expecting that he would change the True Spirit Realm. He just wanted to help a good person, it was that simple.
Chen Feng was silent for a while, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, “I’ll leave in a couple of days. You have to take care of yourself. If there’s anything, you can inform me. Now that the two of us are in the Long Clan, we belong to the same group. Do you understand what I mean?”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Rest assured, I understand. You as well, if you need anything, you can look for me. As long as it’s within my means, I will help.” Chen Feng nodded, then he went to his room.
Chen Feng left the mansion courtyard the next day. Zhao Hai didn’t see him off since he was going to see the Clan Head today. It was supposed to be the day before but Long Tian pushed it off. In any case, Zhao Hai would have to see the Clan Head.
Zhao Hai was meeting the Clan Head inside his study. The study was different from the prestigious study that Zhao Hai had in mind. Long Zhan’s study looked very ordinary. It wasn’t different from any other study. There were also a lot of jade slips inside the room.
When Zhao Hai entered, he cupped his fist towards Long Zhan. The Clan head waved his hand. After Zhao Hai lowered his hands, he calmly stood in place. He didn’t look nervous at all.
After some time, Long Zhan said, “Did you go on trial in Roaring Flames City because you knew about the existence of our clan?”
Zhao Hai shook his head, “No. I just wanted to see the territory of the Demonic Faction. But after I arrived in Roaring Flame City, I needed an identity to take on some tasks. This would also make it more convenient for me to travel around the Demon Faction’s territory. In the end, I chose to work with the Blackwood Group. The only reason I chose them is because they were doing good things. I joined the gang with the intention of helping them for a few months. Although I can directly give them money, money isn’t what the Blackwood Group needs. What they need is a stable source of income. After that, I took a task from the Full Moon Pavilion. It was only after that task that I got to know about the Long Clan. At that time, I didn’t know the clan’s name. Chen Feng only said that he belonged to a clan.”
Long Zhan nodded, “The Tyrant Blade Sect has been very good to you. I heard that when you were about to join the Long Clan, you still wanted to ask the opinion of the Yin Yang Elders. Aren’t you afraid that this would anger me?”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “If not for the Tyrant Blade Sect, I wouldn’t have ascended to the True Spirit Realm. If I abandon them for the Long Clan, then I wouldn’t be someone worth winning over, wouldn’t I?”
Long Zhan chuckled, “You really thought it through. And you’re confident. But you’re correct. If you abandon the Tyrant Blade Sect to join the Long Clan, then I will kill you off as soon as I can. The Long Clan doesn’t take kindly to those who abandon everything for profit. Brother Tian already told me about your arrangements, and I agreed. I believe in Brother Tian’s judgment. From now on, you are a guest official of the Long Clan. You will stay in Coiling Dragon City for three months every year to teach the children of the clan. You are also allowed to bring your family with you.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Thank you, Clan Head. I’ll let my wives live in the Tyrant Blade Sect first. Rest assured, I’ll stay in the clan for three months to teach the kids.”
Long Zhan wasn’t a person who liked to waste their breath, he nodded and said, “That’s fine. If you joined the Long Clan and you bring your family here, it might not look good for the face of the Tyrant Blade Sect. You can go. Someone will arrange a place for you to stay in. An identity token will also be delivered to you.”
Zhao Hai bowed to Long Zhan before leaving. Looking at Zhao Hai’s back, Long Zhan couldn’t help but think. Although he had only met Zhao Hai twice, he knew everything that he had done. Long Zhan couldn’t deny that Zhao Hai was a genius. At the same time, he was also a killer. Long Zhan doesn’t really know whether it was a good idea for Zhao Hai to teach the children of the clan.
However, Long Tian admired Zhao Hai. And Long Zhan respects Long Tian’s vision. Over the years, the amount of talent that Long Tian brought to the clan was quite substantial. These talents looked like wastes in the eyes of others, but Long Tian saw their shining points and recommended them to the Long Clan. And these people have proven themselves in their respective fields.
When it comes to spotting unpolished gems, nobody in the Long Clan was comparable to Long Tian. Long Tian’s admiration for Zhao Hai was one of the major points that caused Long Zhan to consider Zhao Hai’s appointment.
When Zhao Hai left Long Zhan’s study, someone walked over. Then they cupped their fist and said, “Mister Zhao Hai? Please, come with me sir.” Zhao Hai also cupped his fist at the man and followed him out.
Now that Zhao Hai has been appointed to a position, he naturally had to leave the Long Clan mansion. Long Zhan arranged a small courtyard for Zhao Hai to live in Coiling Dragon City. The courtyard wasn’t very large, but it wouldn’t have any issues housing around 20 people. There was a small martial arts area in the courtyard that could accommodate 50 people at the same time. The martial arts area was prepared for Zhao Hai so he could teach his students.
Zhao Hai looked around the courtyard and nodded. He was very satisfied with the place. Zhao Hai released several robots to clean up and put up useful furniture.
A person also arrived to deliver Zhao Hai’s identity token. This identity card also allows Zhao Hai to enter the Long Clan’s library.
Naturally, Zhao Hai could only enter the low-level area of the library. Even then, Zhao Hai wasn’t planning to head there immediately. It wasn’t necessary right now. What he wanted to see was how many students the Long Clan would arrange for him to teach.
After resting inside the courtyard for the rest of the day, early the next morning, someone was knocking on the door to Zhao Hai’s courtyard. Then a robot opened the door. When the people outside saw the robot, they couldn’t help but scream with excitement. Then they surrounded the robot.
Looking at the little figures surrounding the robot, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile bitterly. None of these children were over five years old. The youngest among them was only three. Although people in the True Spirit Realm matured early, three-year old children were only as mature as seven-eight-year-olds back on earth. Children of this age were very hard to handle. It seemed like Long Tian had prepared a difficult problem for Zhao Hai.
However, Zhao Hai wasn’t planning to give up. He looked at the little kids and then clapped his hands, “Alright, kids. Come here. You’ll play with those robots in a while. As long as you study properly, you can play. Alright?”
