“Lin Feng, let’s go and have a drink.”

—

Lin Feng and Yan Di walked down the main street. It was really wide, a hundred meters across. Hundreds of people could gather on the main road. It was also a very lively place, bustling with activity. There were vendors’ booths on both sides of the road. There were also many auction houses. Many of them belonged to the Chu Clan.

Of course, there were also smaller auction houses. The one where Lin Feng had been was an exception; it was huge and only famous people went there. Lin Feng was a bit worried about Chu Lian Feng. How was he doing? Did he fight against Chu Lian Ying a lot?

Of course, that was the Chu Clan’s business, not Lin Feng’s. Lin Feng couldn’t do much. As long as nobody plotted against Chu Lian Feng, he would show how strong and competent he really was. Lin Feng told Yan Di about Chu Lian Feng. Yan Di was stunned.

“You also recruited the Young Master of the Chu Clan?” Yan Di was already shocked that Lin Feng had come with Tu Ba and the other Godly Emperors. Godly Emperors were noble cultivators, they weren’t that common.

Therefore, when the Celestial Evolution Holy Dynasty had seen Lin Feng and the few Godly Emperors, they were astounded, but Yan Di was even more astonished to learn that Lin Feng had also recruited the Young Master of the Chu Clan. That was impressive! Lin Feng also told him about Chu Lian Feng’s situation. If Yan Di told Yan Hui about him, maybe the Celestial Evolution Holy Dynasty would get involved in the Chu Clan’s affairs.

Yan Di decided to inform Yan Hui when going back. He’d ask him to do something about the Chu Clan. Maybe the Chu Clan could join the Celestial Evolution Holy Dynasty. It was a good opportunity, and Yan Di couldn’t miss it.

Yan Di and Lin Feng continued walking and talking. Everybody on the road recognized Lin Feng, and nobody dared stand in his way. They all walked away and whispered when they saw him. Some people looked at him with admiration.

“Did you see that? The handsome man in black clothes over there is Lin Feng, the legendary Lin Feng!”

“Really? That’s Lin Feng? He seems so young!”

“Strong cultivators can look very young even if they’re very old… Maybe he’s dozens of decades old. Who knows?”

“Yes, indeed. Otherwise, he couldn’t be so strong. How could a young man have extended the flight of stairs Tian Di the Celestial Emperor built?”

“He’s my idol. I hope that someday, I’ll become as strong as him,” said a young man, clenching his fists. He looked determined and his eyes gleamed. Even though he was only a cultivator of the Zun Qi layer, he was convinced that hundreds of years later, he’d manage to become a Godly Emperor!

Lin Feng heard the people around and he noticed the young man. That young man was a cultivator of the Zun Qi layer, Lin Feng was astonished. In Xue Yue, such cultivators were considered legendary.

“Cultivation isn’t about speed, it’s not something you get from one day to another. It’s a long process. Good luck,” said Lin Feng, smiling at the young man. Yan Di and he continued on.

The young man blankly looked at Lin Feng. He couldn’t believe it. His idol had just talked to him? On top of that, he had given him a piece of advice? How incredible!

People around the young man were envious, they wished Lin Feng had talked to them, too…

Lin Feng had just said a few simple words but for the young man, it meant a lot; he had just changed someone’s life. Lin Feng didn’t know that someday, someone would nearly surpass him, and it was precisely that young man, Xu Han!

“Lin Feng, over there, the highest building is a restaurant which belongs to the Gods Government. Many people from the Gods Government, Godsland, and Gods City go there. Let’s go there to have some drinks, we haven’t had drinks together for a long time,” said Yan Di, pointing at a gold-plated building a thousand meters high. It was gold-plated. Lin Feng noticed something very, very strange; it didn’t look like a building of the cultivation world, it looked like a building from the Middle East on Earth…

——

Lin Feng followed Yan Di. There were people from everywhere there, business went really well.

When Lin Feng entered the restaurant, many people looked at him. Even though he had become quite famous those days, many people just knew his name, but not what he looked like. Many people didn’t think that Lin Feng looked like that.

It was different from outside, where the people on the street outside had almost all seen Lin Feng climb the mountain and remembered his face. The people who were inside the restaurants were mainly travelers, some of them came from quite far away, and when they arrived at the mountain, Lin Feng wasn’t there anymore.

“A bottle of Lotus Aroma,” Yan Di said to the waitress.

The waitress, who was wearing a grey skirt, quickly came back with a jar with cyan decorative patterns.

“On which floor would you like to sit?” the waitress asked Lin Feng and Yan Di respectfully. People who came there were usually nobles. The waitress didn’t want to offend anyone.

“Star Rain Pavilion,” said Yan Di, giving a talisman to the waitress. The waitress looked at the cyan talisman and her expression changed respectfully. Not many people had such talismans!

“Alright, leave it to me,” said the waitress walking away as fast as she could, rolling her hips as she walked. Yan Di and Lin Feng followed after her.

“The Star Rain Pavilion and the Smoke Rain Pavilion are the best floors. There are many strong cultivators there. The Smoke Rain Pavilion is for foreign cultivators,” explained Yan Di.

Lin Feng didn’t really care. He just wanted to drink. With Yan Di, he didn’t need to worry about anything.

——-

The two cultivators went to the fourth floor. It was beautiful, the ground was made of marble and had lots of ancient decorative patterns, with a  fine aroma in the air. The Smoke Rain Pavilion pointed to the east, the Star Rain Pavilion to the west.

Lin Feng and Yan Di walked west. However, Lin Feng heard a voice coming from the east pavilion, which sounded familiar.

Eh…?

Lin Feng walked over there and saw some people he knew really well; the Elder of Punishments from Sword Mountain, and Jian Yan, the vice leader of Sword Mountain. There were two disciples with them, Chen Zhan and Meng Ke.

But there was something wrong, an old man in cyan clothes was shouting at them. “You’re from Gods City and you think you can eat and drink here? Who the hell do you think you are?” shouted the old man. His face was distorted with disdain and hatred.

Nobody dared disrespect the Elder of Punishments and the vice leader of Sword Mountain in Sword Mountain. But now that old man was humiliating them mercilessly.

Lin Feng looked at the old man. He wasn’t very strong, he was just a Half-Godly Emperor, but the Elder of Punishments and the vice leader were also only Half-Godly Emperors. Chen Zhan and Meng Ke had the strength of the top of the Holy Spirit Emperor layer. It wasn’t that bad.

But it wasn’t enough to make anyone respect them.

Jian Yan was furious as he glared at the old man and said, “We have a talisman and we want to eat! Why can’t we come here?” said Jian Yan angrily. He was usually kind and calm, but how could he control himself in such a situation?

Lin Feng was happy to see he didn’t let himself be pushed around.

“Eat? Hehe. You think you can eat here?” The old man sounded more and more disdainful. He was infuriating them.

“I’ll tell you one thing, today the Smoke Rain Pavilion is fully booked for our Young Master and his people! If you want to eat, piss off, get out of my sight!” said the old man proudly. He glanced at a few people who were about to come into the Smoke Rain Pavilion.

“Bastard! How dare you humiliate people from Gods City?” shouted Chen Zhan furiously, clenching his fists. He was on the verge of attacking.

Many people looked at him. Yan Di stopped, the waitress said, “Dear honorable guests, let’s not watch those rude people. Let’s go.”

“Lin Feng, you know them?” asked Yan Di when he saw Lin Feng looked glum. He knew something was going on.

Lin Feng nodded, but he didn’t say anything. Yan Di understood. Poor old man in cyan clothes, no matter who he was, he was now very unlucky that Lin Feng was there.

The old man continued making fun of them, “People from Gods City are worthless, trash, rubbish, so what?”

“You…” the few people were furious.

“You really dare bully people from Gods City?” a gloomy voice spread through the room, interrupting the old man. He shuddered from head to foot because that voice was really penetrating.

The old man frowned and looked at Lin Feng.

When the Elder of Punishments saw Lin Feng, his expression improved instantly.

“Eh…? Am I dreaming?” The Elder of Punishments was astonished, he rubbed his eyes and looked at Lin Feng. He couldn’t believe it.

The old man looked at Lin Feng and frowned. He didn’t know Lin Feng. He could only see that Lin Feng’s cultivation level was quite high. He remained cautious and asked, “Who are you? Could it be that you want to mess with the Hou Clan?”
