Chapter 308 – Florida Man Mistakenly Brings Youth to Slaughter House Instead of School

Both Kishin and Tang San were curious about this dao. The latter inquired further, "What does 'Florida' mean?"

"It has a profound meaning," Wu Buyi held back his laughter once again.

After Wu Buyi received a smartphone, he had been exploring the internet. He also learned modern knowledge and comprehended some of the memes, including FLORIDA MEMES.

At first, Wu Buyi was taken aback by the stupidity of these memes. However, as he studied deeper, he discovered the sophistication and the Floridians' ways of life.

Wu Buyi clarified in a simple term, "You can say that it relates to freedom of choices and consequences of your actions. For example, people who are only engrossed in negativity will never find happiness because of their trained minds. People with the power of positivity have more opportunities in life because of their mindset. However, there's a fine line between confidence and stupidity in life. Well, in short, if you F around, you will eventually find out."

Tang San was puzzled by the lecture, but Kishin understood it very well.

Because Tang San kept listening, Wu Buyi kept talking.

.

While Wu Buyi ran his mouth, several top workers of Florida Domain entered the shopping complex to explore the changes. Leading the group were Hua Jiashan and his elders, who already reached the immortal threshold.

When Hua Jiashan reached the airlock room, he figured out why people gathered outside the building instead of entering.

"Has the lord bored of the commoners and rogue cultivators? Why is he driving out his customers?" Hua Jiashan disagreed with the changes.

Dongfang Mei, his wife, followed after him. She inspected the thick metal gate and smacked her lips.

"The lord must have been preparing for another major conflict or something. Look at this gate and the surface of the wall. I can tell by just looking that they're a lot stronger than before. I doubt any immortal or deity from other worlds can put a dent in it anymore."

Hua Jiashan was enlightened. He turned around and inspected the wall with his Qi.

BZZZZ

The wall reacted to Hua Jiashan's Qi. It repelled his energy and zapped him.

"Hohoh. Indeed, it has a defensive mechanism. I think it reacts to every attack. If we launch a strong attack at the wall or the gate, this place will counterattack the assailant with the same amount of force. I probe the wall just now, and I just got stung by the same Qi."

"Are you sure that you're not guessing randomly?"

"Trust your husband, dear. Go ahead and lightly punch the wall. I bet you will get hit with the same punch."

"…"

Testing Hua Jiashan's theory, Dongfang Mei lightly punched the wall without using her Qi.

BZZZZ

The punch did nothing to the metal wall. On the other hand, an invisible fist came out of nowhere and hit Dongfang Mei in the face. Fortunately, it was light as Dongfang Mei didn't put too much force into her attack.

Dongfang Mei rubbed her nose. She clicked her tongue.

"Fine, you win. Let's get going."

Both husband and wife stopped testing the durability of Leo's bunker passageway. They activated the airlock room and filtered out the bad air.

In the room, Hua Jiashan's subordinates were all present. Tiger Swordsman, Han Hao, and Han Meng tagged along to play. Like their former leader, everybody was an immortal. The oppressive Qi of the shopping mall did nothing to them.

WHOOSH

The interior door was opened. All five cultivators walked with a long stride, visiting Qiang Qiang Fountain first. As if they were pre-coordinated, they saluted to her in unison.

Qiang Qiang glanced at them and nodded. She then ignored them.

This was everybody's routine whenever they visited Leo's shopping mall. By greeting the guardian statue first, they ensured that their visit would be welcomed.

After getting Qiang Qiang's approval, they walked toward the fountain and brought out a teaspoon. They scooped the fountain water and sipped it. Then, they put away the spoon and sat on the ledge of the fountain.

Five people sat there and closed their eyes to meditate.

The water from the fountain was none other than the holy water, made from the True Earth Fate Crystal. By drinking a sip of it every day, Hua Jiashan and his company increased their Qi volume by 1,000 years' worth of cultivation daily.

This was one of the perks of the shopping mall's employees. Leo told everybody that they could drink exactly one teaspoon of water each day to improve their foundation.

They once inquired why they couldn't drink more than one teaspoon. But Leo simply warned him.

"If you wish to explode, go ahead."

That warning was enough for everybody to be scared out of their wits. Since then, they had restrained their urge to drink more.

30 minutes later, they digested the Qi from the holy water. They stood up and bowed to Qiang Qiang once again. Then, they left.

The group proceeded to the fast food area, where Wu Buyi always lurked. When they passed the FFC store, they found Wu Buyi as they had predicted.

Hua Jiashan smiled, "There he is. He's fast today."

Han Hao rushed toward the obnoxious alchemist without saying anything. He grabbed a chair and sat at Wu Buyi's table. Then, he grabbed a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth as if it were his.

Wu Buyi stopped lecturing Tang San and glanced at Han Hao, "Are you broke or what?"

Han Hao smirked, "A friend's food is always more delicious than self-bought food."

"Scram, cheapskate! Didn't you get your pay after the wedding? Go buy your own chickens!"

"Nah, I'm broke. A few days ago, I bought two sword manuals from the bookstore. I have to rely on fasting pills again."

"Get your ass to work then! Stop freeloading me!"

"I will." Han Hao laughed as he teased Wu Buyi enough. He then shifted his attention to the youth at the same table. Then, he noticed Tang San's cultivation base.

"Hey, you're quite impressive for a youngster." Han Hao praised Tang San, "I thought all quasi-immortals are wussy. It's refreshing to see someone with a firm foundation for once. Buy say, I haven't seen your face before. Did you just come out from seclusion or the time chamber?"

Tang San didn't know what to answer. He glanced at the group of immortals in front of the store and gulped.

'W-Wow. Six immortals in one place?' Tang San thought.

Kishin Douji scoffed at his disciple, 'Immortals? Meh, they're just pushovers. Remember Tang San. Immortals and deities are nothing in this universe. Only karmic sovereigns reign supreme! Don't be satisfied or impressed by some locals!'

'But, master. They must have cultivated the mysterious FLORIDA DAO! We know nothing about this dao. I think we should respect the locals a little and learn more about them.'

'I know. This place is no longer some regular tavern full of delinquent youngsters. The whole building is a den of experts. DO NOT PROVOKE ANYONE! We don't want to die here.'

'…I know.'

Tang San gulped and stood up. He then cupped his fist and bowed.

"M-My name is Tang San. I'm from the Tang Clan's branch family!"

"Ah, the Tang Clan!" Han Hao slapped his knee and laughed, "Your patriarch Tang Xuan and Tang Tian are our friends. We visited the time chamber together twice! Sit down, boy. Let this uncle buy you a drink. Hey silly Wu. Go buy us some cokes."

Wu Buyi bored his fangs and fired a piece of chicken through the gaps of his teeth. The piece of chicken entered Han Hao's left nostril, which made him choke.

"Use your own money, damn broke!"

Because of Han Hao's shamelessness, Wu Buyi lost his appetite. He packed the chicken barrel in his storage ring and stood up to leave.

Han Hao managed to extract the piece of chicken from his nose. He dryly laughed, "That's disgusting, bro!"

"You're disgusting! Get lost!"

"Oh, come on! Let's go play together like the old time! How about another year in the time chamber?"

"SCRAM! I'm planning to study alchemy today! Don't interrupt me!"

In anger, Wu Buyi stormed out of the store while walking like a crap.

Tang San broke a sweat and bowed to the group of elders. Then, he followed Wu Buyi.

He wasn't confident in his survival in Hua Jiashan's group. Being with Wu Buyi was more comfortable even though he was a weirdo.

.

After Wu Buyi and Tang San had left, Hua Jiashan and his people sat in the same store and ordered a few pieces of chicken and burgers. Then, they sat at the same table.

As there were not many topics to chat, Tang San's appearance gave them something to talk about.

Hua Jiashan was still impressed by Tang San's foundation and talent.

"Is that boy actually a newcomer or a frequent visitor?"

Han Hao's expression changed. He crossed his arms and pondered, "Probably a newcomer. I always memorize every face around here to improve my memory capacity and calculation speed, but I've never seen him before. Also, his clothes are quite… unique."

Hua Jiashan and others had a solemn looks on their faces.

"If he was an old customer, his cultivation base and his achievement is nothing. But since he's a newcomer, I think we have to change how we approach things."

Dongfang Mei agreed, "Indeed. Someone under 20 years of age with that cultivation base is abnormal. I think we should report this to the lord or scout him."

"Let's seek the lord and report this. If we can draw him to our side, we might get another Gao Yan or Yao Qiqi."

"Speaking of Gao Yan…"

The elders thought of the youth who had two antler horns and a handsome face. They grinned and snickered, "What's his cultivation base right now? Has he surpassed us?"

Han Hao grinned, "I saw him, Jin Yong, Yao Qiqi, and Cat drag their feet out of the time chamber. I asked the manager that day. She said that it was their 10th visit."

"W-What? Ten already?!" The group was shocked. "Then, what about their strength?!"

"The pinnacle of the immortal realm, True Immortal!"

Han Hao puffed his chest, proud of the former disciple. He wondered how high the guy would reach under Leo's tutelage and his store's influence.

But Dongfang Mei had other concerns.

"What about Qiqi and Cat? How are they?"

"…"

Han Hao's expression changed. He deeply sighed and quietly muttered.

"Yao Qiqi and Jin Yong are true immortals like Gao Yan."

"Okay! What about Cat?"

"…27."

"27?" Everybody didn't understand.

"Cat is a 27 star deity."ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

"PFFFT!!?"

The crowd spat their drinks. They widened their eyes in disbelief.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?! HOW STRONG WAS SHE?!"

If anybody else was a deity, none of them would have batted an eye. On the other hand, Cat's existence was another story.

After all, she was Leo's daughter figure and she had THAT personality. Everybody prayed that Cat wouldn't start bullying anybody soon.

.

.

On the fifth floor, Wu Buyi and Tang San reached the workshop area. They entered an alchemy workshop and entered one of the pill-making rooms.

Tang San was excited to see how the workshop taught alchemists and visitors. He wondered if he could become an alchemist as well.

But as soon as they entered the room, they found a refined young girl with dark skin and long ears. She had been sitting on the spectator stand and staring at the mannequin next to the cauldron.
