Heero headed to Xing Hotpot with Han Ying while the other three girls replaced her at the noodles shop.
The three girls did not have the interest to join him to talk with three old men.
Han Ying hooked her husband's arm and walked to the reserved room. Both were having a small chat on the way, mostly about Miao Miao.
When they reached the room, Heero opened the door without knocking.
Inside the private room, three old men were savoring the hotpot like a starving beast.
"Uh, ou hve cum? Cum, it ith us tgeyher! (Oh, You have come? Come, eat with us together!)"
With his mouth still full of meat, Bai Xian Ming spoke.
Heero rolled his eyes while Han Ying found the old man was quite adorable.
"Swallow your food first then talk! What are you? A kid?" Heero pulled Han Ying to the empty seat.
Hearing what Heero said, Wu Shitian and Kim Jung-Mun swallowed the meat that filled their mouths.
Bai Xian Ming also swallowed the food and spoke, "Come eat with us, Heero!"
"Mnn…" Heero nodded his head and picked up the chopstick. As soon as he held the chopstick, the floating meat in the pot disappeared.
"That's my meat!" Wu Shitian raised his voice as his meat was robbed by Heero.
"Who says that's your meat? It does not have your name on it, so the meat is ownerless!" Heero shamelessly refuted the old man as he chewed the meat he just picked.
"What? Are you picking a fight with this old man!?" Wu Shitian raised his voice even further.
"What are you doing, you can't do that to the elder!" Han Ying rebuked her husband as she ordered new plates of meat through the tablet.
"All right then, as the big person here, I will be magnanimous and not fight him, " He nodded and picked a piece of meat into his mouth.
"All right, stop it, Shitian! It's just meat, you can order it again!" Kim Jung-Mun immediately stopped his old friend who was about to flare up.
"You too, can you even yield to an old man like us?" Bai Xian Ming rolled his eyes at Heero.
"I am full, let's leave!" Heero pretended about to leave by pulling her wife. But Han Ying did not budge from her seat.
"All right, stop joking around! Let me introduce you to them…" Bai Xian Ming wanted to introduce his friend to Heero, but Heero cut him off.
"I know! The childish old man is the Supreme Star, Wu Shitian and the gentle old man is the Supreme Moon, Kim Jung-Mun!"
Heero stood up and greeted the two elders with a slight bow.
"Hello, elders! I am Xing Heero, nice to meet you, " Out of sudden he turned polite and greeted the two old men properly.
Han Ying also followed Heero, bowing her head to the two elders.
'There's no way I don't know the face of my big customers, ' Thought Heero to himself.
The sudden change caught the two old men. Even Wu Shitian could not get angry with Heero anymore.
As for Bai Xian Ming, he was used to this. In fact, he already knew Heero would toy Wu Shitian around as the two were pretty much childish for their age.
"All right, stop playing around and be serious. We want to meet you because there are many things we want to know. First, the mutation, do you really can cure the mutation?"
Kim Jung-Mun started with a heavy topic. The mutant, this was a very important topic, not to Star City, but to humanity.
"The kids! I can cure the kids of their mutation but not with the adult. Curing the mutation of the adult is pretty much the same as killing them!"
Heero answered everything he knew about the mutation. Yes, if the gray energy had mixed to the body, it could no longer be cleansed as the gray energy would be part of the mutant's body. Cleansing the gray energy was the same killing them.
"Then, can you share it with us? The cure?" Kim Jung-Mun immediately asked as this was truly important to them.
"It has something to do with my secret technique! If all the big families and big forces are willing to share and open their secret techniques to the public, then I don't mind sharing what's mine! If not, I can't share it with you, except you become my disciple!"
Heero answered straightforwardly. He was serious with his words.
Kim Jung-Mun's words stuck in his mouth. It was quite easy, he could share his family's technique, but what about the others. It was pretty much impossible.
The childish Wu Shitian also turned serious. He opened his mouth, but no words came out from him.
"It's impossible! I will create a team to gather all mutant children! I wish you to cure them, " Bai Xian Ming gave his answer.
"I love to help people! Especially if they are innocents, the kids. If the kids don't have the parent or place to live, the Xing Orphanage is ready to accommodate them! You can also bring their parents to me, I can accommodate them as well! We can't let the kids live without their parents!"
Heero gave his reply readily. Even if Bai Xian Ming did not bring this up, he would. He wanted the society to accept the mutant again. Of course, a mutant with violent tendencies would not be accepted or giving special care first.
Han Ying was smiling gently next to Heero. As her husband talked with the three old men, she prepares the hotpot.
As she heard the talk, she could not help but feel proud of her husband. Despite all his achievements and his current social status, he was not changed. He was all the same Heero.
Even there was a change, it was a positive one. He could help more people with his current status now.
"I am relieved if you have given your promise!" Bai Xian Ming nodded.
Kim Jung-Mun also could not help but praise Heero secretly.
"Then what about the allies you talked to me a few days go? You said you will bring more allies in order to face the specter!" Bai Xian Ming brought up another issue.
Heero did not answer, but he glanced at Kim Jung-Mun and Wu Shitian. It was an indication he did not trust the two old men yet.
"No worries, they are trustworthy. Though this one could be pretty childish and greedy some times, he's good!" Bai Xian Ming pointed at Wu Shitian in a rather joking manner.
"Nah, about a little over two weeks ago, I have to kill two old men because of his greediness. I don't want the same thing is repeated!" Heero stated straightforwardly and solemnly. He was not joking around when the talk turned serious.
His words mixed with a threat and warning for the two old men. Especially to Wu Shitian.
Wu Shitian and Kim Jung-Mun furrowed their brows at Heero's words. It was unpleasant being threatened like this.
However, Kim Jung-Mun had grasped Heero's character a bit after a short of exchange. His course of action was understandable.
But Heero said he had to kill two old men because of their greediness. Kim Jung-Mun was curious about who these two old men were. He shot a glance at Old Ming then Old Ming told them about the tragedy befell to Ryong Chong-Shik and Hanzo Keiji.
Han Ying was not surprised by the story. She had heard it from Heero's mouth. He told her there were two old men who wanted to kidnap her daughter, but he acted out first and killed the kidnapper.
She just did not know that the two old men had a high status in the core region.
"They deserved it!" Wu Shitian applause when he heard two Legendary Class Rankers were killed. It seemed the old man hated the rankers quite a lot.
Actually, Wu Shitian did not hate rankers that much. He hated a traitor from his family, Mao Chingseng. Legendary Class Ranker - Rank 12, Mao Chingseng, the famed traitor who ran seeking shelter behind the Ranker Alliance.
He hated Mao Chingseng who was also a ranker, making him hate all the other rankers.
"If you guarantee for them, then I will trust them once! The allies I was talking about are already here. They stayed at my academy's backyard now. I will arrange a time so you can meet them!"
"Ah, so the allies you were talking about are the people from the dungeon?" Old Ming was surprised as he did not hear anything about this from the expedition team.
"Mnn, I will arrange the time so you can meet them. Whether you can convince them to work with you is another matter!"
"Leave it to me!" Old Ming tapped his chest reassuringly.
"Then what about your plan to clean the "house"? They want to know your plan!" Bai Xian Ming continued another matter.
The clean the house was to clean the Hero League's rotten part. Bai Xian Ming wanted to clear the rotten part by using Heero as the spearhead.
His two old friends were taking an interest and wanted to hear it from Heero directly.
"There's no specific plan. Now, I have pocketed your permission and I will do it in a big way, I will spare no one! Whether they are Wood Class Hero or Emperor Class Hero, whether they are just clerks or even an executive!"
"They have to be punished for their crimes, whether you are from the big family or heroes with no background! I will show no mercy even if they are from the Wu, the Kim, or even the Bai!"
