Chapter 258 VIP Room
Amidst the bustling city, a young man was walking down the streets, looking around, sightseeing, and clicking his tongue in wonder. Compared to the small cities situated in the Third Region, the Second Region's one Sacred City was, without a doubt, the best he had ever seen.
High-end restaurants with luxurious exterior designs exuded a holy aura and the smell of food that emanated from them was enough to make one salivate. Even he, who already had a strong will, had the urge to go in and eat as much as he could. Despite being so firm-willed, and given that food was not necessary for him to survive anymore, he would always go for it if he would have the chance to gobble up to his content.
That was why he entered this high-end restaurant the moment he went out from the array formation and was casually transported to a nearby city.
"Mister, what do you need for food? We have a lot of extremely delicious dishes here that you can eat…" the lady cheerfully beckoned this young man who just entered their restaurant.
Meanwhile, the young man did not pay attention to her at all. The young man was just looking at the interior design of the restaurant that did not lose out on the exterior design. Moreover, what he was most enticed by was the food that was served at each table.
From their appearance and aroma, he knew right away that they would make a good meal for him. Perhaps he should try this restaurant.
"Mister…" The lady had long been mesmerized by the young man's facial features which transcended heaven and earth. It was like he was someone who went down to bless the mortals with his appearance.
Even the lady did not dare provoke him. Although she was strong herself, she could actually not see through this youngster.
Finally, when she opened her mouth, the young man looked at her—eye-to-eye. She gasped lightly and did not actually dare face his pair of eyes head-on. It was as if she was facing some unsurmountable boulder the moment his eyes laid on hers. Her body even spasmed.
"M-Mister…"
Oblivious, the young man looked at the young woman and examined her from head to toe, which extremely made the latter feel so embarrassed. However, he seemed to not care about any of these actions that she was making. "Hey, are there still any seats available? This little lord is trying to eat something good."
The moment she saw his smile, her body trembled as though she was electrocuted. This young man did not use any bewitching arts, but his face alone could make girls jittery, anxious, excited, and a myriad of emotions.
He was that charming!
"I wonder what's the name of this young lord?" the young woman asked, after heaving a sigh to calm herself down. "When we accept guests in our establishment, we tend to ask people for their names. May I have the honor of knowing this young lord's name? I seem to not have seen anyone like you here in this Sacred City."
However, what she just uttered, she felt embarrassed in her heart. She actually took the initiative to ask the name of this young man. Even if he was a genius who overlooked others from the skies, she would really not do this kind of thing. After all, asking for their customer's name is not something customary. It was only her excuse to note down his name.
Thinking up here, she really felt ashamed of herself for sounding so desperate. If this young man knew why she truly asked for his name, the shame… she might not be able to swallow it whole.
Although she was acting as a waitress in this high-end restaurant, it was only for so to complete one of her menial tasks or missions, posted by her family.
"Yang Lujia!" the young man said, dignifying.
This young man was actually Yang Lujia!
The one who just entered the Sacred Region after comprehending the depths of the geographical array formation as well as getting acknowledged by the five divine beasts.
"Yang Lujia…" the young woman said in a daze and turned beet red when she realized how she lost her composure.
Looking at her, Yang Lujia was surprised. "Miss, could it be that you know who I am?"
When the young woman heard this, she shook her head and headed in embarrassingly. She was truly embarrassed this time and could only ask the other waitresses to tend to Yang Lujia. Of course, another waitress went up to him, but it was a middle-aged woman this time and seemed to have no intention in Yang Lujia at all.
Yang Lujia was dumbfounded when after he said whether that young lady knew him or not, she left without a word and actually replaced herself with this middle-aged woman. "Well, this can't be helped then. Miss, please prepare a table for me. Whatever food you have on the menu, I would also like to try all of them."
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman was taken aback and could not help but ask, "This young lord, this high-end restaurant's chef cooks our food with herbs that contain dense qi within them. It might not be good to stuff yourself with so much of them and explode. There was one time when a fatty tried to eat everything in our restaurant, and in the end, he exploded into meat paste. Fortunately, he was not someone from the three large families. Otherwise, our restaurant might face unnecessary troubles."
With that, Yang Lujia, having been informed of the spirit stones' grades, casually took out several peak-grade spirit stones and stuff them into a ring—handing it to the middle-aged woman. "That ring contained a million peak-grade spirit stones. Prepare a VIP room for me and my mates. I will eat with them and would not like to be disturbed."
The middle-aged woman's eyes went wide, not believing what she heard at all. A million peak-grade spirit stones. That was already almost ten percent of the total revenue that their restaurant would earn. If not for her checking the content of the ring she received, she would not have believed it.
Seeing the holy aura revolving around Yang Lujia, the middle-aged woman likened him to one of the Holy Saints of the entire Sacred Region or he was someone who had a high status in the main church, just dressed as a young handsome man. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮
Nevertheless, she still complied and brought Yang Lujia to a VIP room where their high-end customers usually stand by. Based on where the sequence of events had gone, Yang Lujia could predict that someone would fight it out for his spot in this VIP room. It might be some young master from a clan or someone with esteemed status who would implicate him.
However, he truly didn't mind. No one in this Sacred Region would be his match. Conquering the ruler of the Sacred Region would be a piece of cake. But, being too confident wouldn't do any better. That was why he would rather take it slow. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨m
And just as he expected…
"Who in the world paid for the VIP room I especially asked your manager to reserve for this young master?!" a voice echoed inside the restaurant, the others extremely annoyed by this young man's commotion.
But they did not dare voice out any complaints, because this young man came from an esteemed family in this Sacred City. He was the tyrant Young Master Hao, whose talent surpassed the other two young masters from the other clans!
"What? Open your mouth and answer me!" he bellowed, his anger reaching the skies.
"Young Master Hao, what's going on?" A young-looking guy also arrived beside him. He looked at Young Master Hao and seemed surprised by this sudden turn of events.
"Brother Lao, it's not that this young master is not trying to give you face but this mere high-end restaurant is actually giving out the VIP room to an outsider or someone whose status might be beneath mine. Who else other than you and me had the noblest status in this Sacred City?"
"Oh, so that's the case. Did she tell you who the person who snatched the VIP room from us was?" the other young man asked, indicating the middle-aged woman to answer with his gaze.
"Here we go again… this sequence is too familiar in novels…" Yang Lujia, who was inside the VIP room, while looking at the cheerful people he brought with him, was instantly amused by those two young masters' behavior. "If they don't provoke me to my bottom line, I won't do anything to them. However, if they did, they should expect the worst."
