Halfway there, Chen Feng ran into a tiger demon coming the other way.
The moment it saw Chen Feng, it greeted him with a beaming smile. "You must be the new king."
Huh? Did this bastard just sneak in an insult?
Chen Feng was about to lose his temper when the demon offered him a gift box. "Our king sent this gift for you."
You really shouldn't have brought anything.
Chen Feng opened the box and found a wine gourd and an invitation covered in crooked handwriting.
The elderly Wolf Yokai he was riding immediately exclaimed, "My king, this is immortal wine!"
"Indeed! You have a good eye!"
The tiger demon delivering the invitation said proudly, "Everyone in the park knows the immortal wine bestowed by the Great Yokai can extend your life and increase your cultivation. It's the most precious treasure under heaven."
"Even the Old Wolf King never got a single sip. Yet our king has gifted you immortal wine as soon as you took office. That should show you his sincerity."
"From now on, our tiger and wolf clans are family."
Hearing this, Chen Feng flew into a rage. Er Lang was his own brother, even if they shared neither a father nor a mother.
You think you can buy me off with a lousy bottle of wine?
This is an insult!
Chen Feng wanted to shout at the demon and throw the wine gourd in its face. But upon hearing that it could extend his life and increase his cultivation, he forced himself to hold back.
Seeing Chen Feng accept the gift, the tiger demon clasped its paws. "I have other urgent business, so I'll take my leave. See you tomorrow night at the Black Fiend Cave!"
With that, it turned and vanished into the forest.
