Chapter 280: Chapter 277 Fire in Progress [Fourth Update]

"Uh..."

The person finally reacted. When he rushed into the hall of Yingxian Tower, every table was already filled with people.

Even so, people continued to pour into the hall from outside the door.

Most of these people had cultivation levels below the Divine Separation Stage.

They had heard that everyone who dined at Yingxian Tower yesterday, with cultivation levels below the Divine Separation Stage, had their realms elevated one level after eating. Excited beyond measure, they couldn’t sleep all night and rushed over early to find out if it was true.

There was no standing room left in the hall of Yingxian Tower. The staff of Yingxian Tower sighed as they saw the bustling crowd.

"This is too astonishing. I’ve been at Yingxian Tower for almost a hundred years, and I’ve never seen such a lively scene as today."

Another staff member said, "Tell me about it. I remember last time, when Lord City Lord celebrated his birthday here, the scene wasn’t this crazy."

"Roar, roar."

"Speaking of our Boss Yan, where did he come from? Why can he conjure up so many dishes without even going to the kitchen?"

"Sigh..."

"All of us chefs are practically out of work, reduced to helping out at the front desk. If we don’t close the doors, the restaurant is going to burst at the seams..."

The latecomers outside Yingxian Tower were still madly trying to push into the hall, forcing the staff of Yingxian Tower to intervene and shut the doors.

In the hall, nearly ten thousand people were either sitting, standing, or hovering in mid-air.

Yan Rufeng saw the scene and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

A graceful figure rose into the air and landed at the top level of the hall. With a gentle wave of her delicate hand, a round table appeared in mid-air, laden with dishes emitting a variety of dazzling lights, colorful and brilliant, extremely splendid.

The exotic fragrance filled the air, permeating the heart.

"Daoists in the first-floor hall, please make room for a round table!"

Xuedie’s voice was melodious and gentle, like a song from a water stream, soft as an orchid in a secluded valley, making everyone feel comfortable and delighted upon hearing it.

In an instant, a space appeared in the hall.

The round table, floating in the air, slowly descended under Yudie’s control.

Those hovering in the air were all stunned when they saw the dishes on the round table, letting out exclamations of amazement.

"Oh my gosh."

"What on earth are these dishes made of? Why are they all glowing?"

"My heavens."

"Are these even dishes? They look like works of art. Wait, let me swallow my saliva first!"

"What the heck."

"What’s that dish there?"

"Oh no!"

Someone’s face turned horrified.

"I seem to see a platter full of Soul Reviving Pills."

"What?"

"Soul Reviving Pills!"

Someone exclaimed, "Aren’t those only available in the trading house? Why does a restaurant have them?"

The round table landed on the ground amidst the crowd’s exclamations.

The noisy hall was full of bustling and excitement.

"Everyone, quiet down!"

Yudie’s voice was sweeter than honey, lingering in the air, making everyone turn to look at her.

Yudie waved her hand, signaling for everyone to quiet down.

The hall fell into silence once more.

Yudie smiled beautifully.

"Thank you all for coming to support Yingxian Tower. I am Yudie, the auction host for the dishes here."

"Clap, clap, clap!"

Applause, whistles, and cheers echoed continuously.

Yudie waved her hand, signaling for silence, and then smiled slightly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our Boss Yan Rufeng, to thank you all for your support, has specially ordered me to bring you a taste of the exquisite dishes that are normally only available in the luxurious private rooms on the second floor, for free."

At this moment, the crowd boiled over.

"Roar, roar."

"Boss Yan is so mighty and domineering!"

"Hehe!"

"Boss Yan is so handsome, I love you!" A female cultivator made a flying kiss gesture towards the air.

"Giggle..."

"Boss Yan, I love you too, mwah..." Another female cultivator shouted.

"Hehe..."

A chubby man loudly called out, "Boss Yan, I love you too, to death..."

"You nauseate me before we’ve even started eating."

"You made me so sick, I threw up my leftovers..."

Many female cultivators cast disgusted glances at the chubby man.

The hall was a noisy mess.

"Everyone, quiet down, quiet down!"

Yudie had to wave her hand again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please listen to me first. The dishes in front of you are not to be tasted by cultivators below the Transcendance Tribulation Stage."

"What?"

Immediately, dissatisfaction arose from the crowd, with someone shouting in anger: "Why can’t cultivators below the Transcendance Tribulation Stage eat these dishes?"

"Ha!"

"I’ve never heard of a restaurant that has realm requirements for eating dishes."

"What the heck."

"Boss Yan Rufeng, this is a bit too much!"

"More than just too much!"

"Damn it, what kind of stupid rule is this? This lousy restaurant discriminates based on realm, it’s infuriating. I’m not eating here, guys, let’s go..."

A few people in the hall started pushing toward the door.

Xuedie smiled beautifully.

"Please listen to what Xuedie has to say before getting angry."

Someone roared in anger: "If Yingxian Tower doesn’t give us brothers a perfect explanation today, we’ll smash this place up."

"Yeah, smash it up..."

Yudie blinked and smiled, "The reason Boss Yan has this rule is because the spiritual energy within these dishes is extremely terrifying. If a cultivator below the Transcendance Tribulation Stage eats just a small bite, their Dantian might explode instantly from the influx of spiritual energy. Our Boss Yan is actually looking out for everyone’s well-being!"

"Whoosh!"

Someone exclaimed in astonishment, "This is outrageous, how can a bite of food contain enough spiritual energy to explode a Dantian? What on earth are these dishes made of?"

Yudie smiled and said, "Good question, Daoist friend. The ingredients of the dishes available in the luxurious private rooms on the second floor are a whole level higher than those in the first-floor hall!"

"What, a whole level higher? Did I hear wrong?"

Yudie straightened her chest and said with a gentle smile, "You heard right!"

The hall was abuzz.

"My gosh."

"Yingxian Tower is really beyond my imagination. I didn’t expect Boss Yan to slaughter Level 7 Demon Beasts to make dishes..."

"A Level 7 Demon Beast, that’s a being that can crush cultivators at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. Its meat is filled with spiritual energy, no wonder Boss Yan doesn’t allow cultivators below the Transcendance Tribulation Stage to eat it. It could actually cause their bodies to explode..."

Someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed, "Doesn’t that mean the dishes on the second floor also contain Six-star Fushen powder?"

Someone, looking doubtful, immediately waved their hand.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Even Cangmang Trading House doesn’t have many Six-star Fushen. Where did Yan Rufeng get it?"

Yudie covered her face with a smile.

"Daoist friend, Six-star Fushen isn’t rare. Do you see that plate of glowing Soul Reviving Pills on the table? Those are made from Seven-star Fushen!"
