Chapter 207: Birthday gift


    As Bai Long looked towards Lifen with a look as if asking if this birthday party thing was really happening, Lifen herself shrugged and said, "When people are so high up the socialdder, they never lose a single opportunity to show off."


    "Especially with all of the 16 top forces gathered at the same ce, no one would want to give up on an opportunity like this to show off their wealth."


    "And the Sect of Enlightenment is something which earns the second most amount of wealth among all the top forces due to all the money it receives in the forms of ''prayer''."


    "Prayers?"


    "The Sect of Enlightenment due to acting like it is the only good sect which protects peace and controls who receives the blessing of good luck on the Maind depending on how they behave, there is no shortage in the number of suckered that send them gifts hoping to be blessed by some good luck."


    "So they''re essentially a cult?"


    Smiling happily because Bai Long seemed to. Be understanding her more than she expected, Lifen nodded her head and said, "Yup. They''re a hypothetical blood-sucking cult."


    "So which force is the one that earns the most money? Please don''t say the Divine Night Sect."


    Rolling her eyes, Lifen said, "It''s those greedy bastards from the Nirvana Pce who earn the most."


    "They''re the number one force when ites to producing and selling alchemy pills."


    "Oh, is that some anger I hear?"


    "Between us and the Nirvana Pce? Nah. We actually make them pay a protection fee to us every year because they refused to sell is the pills we wanted once."


    The more Bai Long learnt about the Divine Night Sect, the more he felt like they were the neighbourhood bully who enjoyed doing all sorts of evil things.


    "Shall we go?"


    "Where?"


    "To the birthday party of course. After all, we can''t be the only ones not visiting them and giving them a gift."


    Even though Lifen expected that Bai Long had some sort of a n when she heard the way he talked about giving a gift, she really didn''t want to go to that snobby party being thrown by the Sect of Enlightenment.


    "Really? I''m pretty sure that the party will be more boring than you can expect."


    "It''s fine. I''m confident in turning it more than enough interesting for a lifetime."


    Deciding to trust in Bai Long, Lifen sighed a little and said, "Fine. If you''re that confident, then let''s go."


    Flying outside if the camp set by the Divine Night Sect, the duo quickly flew near the Sect of Enlightenment''s camp when Lifen suddenly asked, "This interesting thing that you''re going to be doing, will it end up causing them to chase after us?"


    As Bai Long shot her a ''what do you think'' look, Lifen called for the Grand Elder to secretly follow them and keep them safe.


    As for the old man epted without feeling as if he was being looked down on to do such a thing, it was because there wouldn''t be a life anymore to be looked down on if Lifen ended up dying.


    Her grandfather would definitely kill him as well.


    Flying downwards, Bai Long and Lifen were quickly surrounded by various men and women who had stern and nervous looks in their eyes.


    "Could someone call your dogs back? I''m really not in a mood to teach them some manners."


    "What did you say? I''m goi... "


    Interrupting one of the men who looked like he wanted to rip Bai Long''s neck with his teeth, the Grand Elder who was responsible for the Sect of Enlightenment''s group said, "Our Sect of Enlightenment is magnanimous enough to even feed our hungry enemies. Let them in."


    Not showing any expression while Lifen''s face had turned sour, Bai Long said, "It''s fine old man. We''re not here to eat, just to give a gift to the birthday boy."


    Narrowing his eyes from hearing the word gift, the Grand Elder who spoke understood that the two of them weren''t here with any good intention.


    Not that he didn''t know about that until now, because their two sects had been enemies for a long time. But whenever an enemy was offering to give a gift, it was just guaranteed to be something really bad for them.


    Still, he couldn''t just have the two of them leave when the guests from so many of the top forces were right there. He needed to show off that the Sect of Enlightenment was truly the most honourable Sect there was.


    "Oh. And what is this gift that you want to give my grandson?"


    "Why so eager old man? You don''t want to take the gift for yourself, do you?"


    Forcing himself to chuckle, the Grand Elder from the Sect of Enlightenment didn''t say anything else and went back to talking to those others of the same status that came from the remaining forces.


    But he didn''t forget to keep on looking towards Bai Long and Lifen through the corner of his eye so that nothing too bad would happen.


    "What''s the n here boy? You''ve got any gifts that are capable of pulling a prank?"


    Shaking his head, Bai Long said, "My gift isn''t a material one, it''s a physical one."


    "Huh?"


    Not answering Lifen, Bai Long stepped near the boy who was the same age as him and said, "Happy birthday boy. I''ll give your gift to your mother."


    Before anyone who heard those words could understand what was happening or the Grand Elder from the Sect of Enlightenment that kept a part of his attention focused on Bai Long understood but could do anything, Bai Long had already made his move.


    Stepping to the side, Bai Long who was in front of the woman who could only possibly be the boy''s mother and Grand Elder''s daughter inw, kissed her on the lips and said, "You''ve got a stupid son, want to make a better one with me?"
