Just when Ji Bai was stealing a glance at the knights who were talking about something in the luxurious restaurant next door, a palm unexpectedly slapped on his arm.

"Young man, what are you looking at so seriously?" A slightly hoarse and bold voice came from behind him.

"Huh huh?" His attention has been placed elsewhere, besides, his behavior was considered to be peeping others, Ji Bai was so suddenly provoked, immediately startled.

"Damn it,, uncle, you scared me! In the past, what you have done just now needed to pay me for the loss of my spirit, okay?" Turned his head, saw the noodle shop boss who was full of stubble on his chin, Ji Bai said with a sigh of relief.

"Ha? Spiritual damage compensation? Don’t bother me for I have more life experience than yours, just like the salt I have eaten is more than the rice you have eaten!" The boss placed the large bowl of noodles in his other hand in front of Ji Bai and looked over along Ji Bai's line of sight.

"Oh, are you looking at a few men there? Watching with such enthusiasm and seriousness, hey, buddy, do you have any fetish of same-sex love as this kind of hobby?" With that, the boss vigilantly moved back a step away from Ji Bai.

"You're the one with the fetish of same-sex love ! Can't I be a little curious? And even if I have that special hobby, why do you back off? What do you look like? Don't you have a count in your heart?" Ji Bai looked disgusted to the boss with very stout abstract figure.

"Hey, now for the youngsters like you,ah ... Forget it, I don’t want to say anything." The boss sat down beside Ji Bai, as if he was familiar with him,, once again looked at the four knights sitting in an air-conditioned room in a extravagant restaurant nearby.

"I see. Those four men are Saint Martial Knights, right?" The boss narrowed his eyes and said to Ji Bai with a fierce look.

"Hmm? Uncle, do you actually know about Holy Martial Knights?"

"Youngster! What do you mean I know all about it? Now I tell you, not only do I know that they are knights, but also I can see which Hall of Martial Valor they belong to as knights." Ji Bai's shocked expression annoyed the boss, and immediately defiantly began to show off his little knowledge about knights in his mind..

"Oh, can you tell me about them?"

"They are the Knights of Splendor, right? The Knights of Splendor is the No. 1 Order that ranks first in numbers and combats power within the Order."

"Huh huh? I can’t believe you know about the information."

"That's right, you guy. Do you think old-timers like me don't know how to keep up with the times?" Ji Bai's impressed look caused the boss's vanity to be greatly satisfied, holding his head high. Looking at his proud look,it seems that he was also a member of the Knights of Splendor.

"And I also know that the Knights of Splendor were formed by the faith worshippers of Knight of Heavenly Glory, and was also created by him, to create such a battle-hardened steel force. Knight of Heavenly Glory

really deserve the name of the Knight King." The boss lamented.

"Hey, I know just so much." Hearing someone praise himself like that, Ji Bai subconsciously responded modestly.

"What are you laughing at? It's not a praise for you." The boss contemptuously glanced at Ji Bai, who was dressed in cheap goods. "Ah, you don't be too over ambitious ..."

The boss patted Ji Bai's shoulder, his tone suddenly became long-winded.

"I know, young people like you, just want to prove themselves desperately, left their hometown, left their relatives, gave up a lot, a lot, but finally have nothing to return. In the end their family also doesn’t recognize them, leaving them alone in their old age. Hey, I have a friend who is in that situation..." Speaking of which, the uncle sighed sadly.

"... That friend, in fact, is you, right?" Ji Bai tilted his head,

"Cough cough! ... You, hey, young man, people are tough, ah! Eat your noodles!" The boss, coughing to hide his embarrassment, got up and hurried into the shop.

Ji Bai smiled and pulled out a new pair of clean chopsticks from the chopstick tube placed in the middle of the table, and froze when he glanced at the noodles in front of him.

The large bowl in front of him was filled with slow noodles, and the top layer was filled with beef.

Strange, what he ordered was just a single bowl of noodles, right?

Looking at the boss who was busy in the store again, a warm current came into Ji Bai's heart.
