Chapter 2720: Chapter 2740: Choosing me, are you truly not disappointed?

Lin Chen truly didn’t look down on Guan Xia.

For such a large sect to have such a huge number of female immortals, if someone said these female immortals were all willing, Lin Chen would be the first to disbelieve it; moreover, Guan Xia’s recent remark, "If I haven’t served the Young Master well, I will be punished," inadvertently revealed the truth.

They sat here, accompanying these guests, not because they wanted to, not because they were depraved, but because they had a mission and had no choice but to come!

Lin Chen didn’t have the power to help them, but at least he could give the handmaids by his side the respect they deserved.

Lin Chen never planned to take advantage of the beauty of the handmaids, treating them as he would waiters in a restaurant or hotel. Since they were serving Lin Chen, thanking them was only natural.

That is basic etiquette understood by those in the Human World with proper upbringing.

Lin Chen ate and drank, and the man at the adjacent table turned his head, glanced at Guan Xia twice, and revealed a smile that all men understand.

"Friend, your luck doesn’t seem too great, huh!"

Lin Chen turned his head, glanced at that man, and then at the pretty woman whose slender waist was encircled by his arm, and immediately understood the meaning of the man’s words.

Upon entering, each person chose an object that determined the handmaid who would accompany them. Now, as Guan Xia’s appearance was quite unremarkable, it naturally seemed that Lin Chen was unlucky.

Lin Chenxiao replied with a smile, "There’s nothing bad about it... pretty good!"

The man tightened his grip around the waist of his female companion as if to show off, and laughed heartily.

The beautiful woman leaned into the man’s embrace and gave a light, charming laugh toward this direction; her smile bloomed like a flower, extremely proactive and cooperative.

Lin Chenxiao smiled and said nothing.

The man asked, "Friend, which Gathering Immortal Envoy found you?"

Lin Chen replied casually, "My Gathering Immortal Command was acquired by chance, not given by a Gathering Immortal Envoy."

As soon as Lin Chen said this, a hint of disdain flashed across the man’s eyes, "Then you’re quite lucky. Since you’re here, enjoy it to the fullest, for such opportunities are rare."

The man’s words were filled with subtle mockery. Being chosen by a Gathering Immortal Envoy meant the person was obviously outstanding, possessing either immense strength or potential. But someone like Lin Chen who had obtained the Gathering Immortal Command by accident could only be said to be lucky, nothing compared to the invited talents.

Not just this man, but many of the surrounding people also looked towards Lin Chen, viewing him as if he were some rare animal.

Lin Chen wasn’t angry, and calmly smiled, "I’m just here because I heard that with the Gathering Immortal Command in hand, one could enjoy themselves freely on the island, so I came to see for myself, and it turns out to be true!"

Lin Chen’s answer made several of the immortals who were watching him look on with even more mockery and contempt.

Does this kid not understand that he is being mocked?

Lin Chen naturally noticed the attitudes of the surrounding people but didn’t mind at all. He withdrew his gaze and continued eating and drinking.

We meet as strangers; I didn’t plan to become friends with you. Why should I care about your looks?

The man who had struck up a conversation with Lin Chen saw that he was ignored and muttered under his breath with a cold snort, "I thought all who attend the Gathering of Immortals were talented, but who would have thought there were some here just riding on their luck to eat and drink."

Lin Chen still ignored him, and seeing Lin Chen’s indifference, the man gave a disdainful snort and turned away.

Clearly, he now regarded Lin Chen as a lucky but incompetent person.

Guan Xia looked at Lin Chen, eating and drinking with a calm expression, blinked, and said in a low apologetic voice, "I’m sorry, I’ve embarrassed you, Young Master."

Lin Chen turned with a smile, "What are you talking about? People have mouths on their faces and the freedom to say what they want. Just ignore them, and you, don’t just sit there. Grab some chopsticks and join me. It’s really no fun eating and drinking alone."

Guan Xia exclaimed in surprise, "But these are for entertaining guests, we’re here to serve the guests..."

Lin Chen looked up with a smile, "If your mission is to take good care of the guests, satisfying all the guests’ needs, I’m a guest, so I can make requests, right?"

Guan Xia’s eyes lit up slightly as she guessed what Lin Chen was about to say.

"Yes," she said.

Lin Chenxiao laughed heartily, "That’s right. As a guest, I’m not satisfied eating and drinking alone, I want your company. That’s a guest’s request, so you should meet my request, and that doesn’t violate the principles for your being here, does it?"

After a pause, a playful look appeared on Lin Chen’s face, "It’s all for the guest, isn’t it?"

Guan Xia pressed her lips together, glanced at Lin Chen’s smiling eyes, hesitated, and said, "All the handmaids here are incredibly charming, and among them, I’m at the bottom. Aren’t you disappointed?"

"Disappointed!"

Lin Chen kept a straight face, yet his eyes failed to hide the amusement, "Right now I am injured, so to punish you, you’ll have to join me in eating meat and drinking wine. This is the only way to soothe my injured heart..."
