Chapter 2722: Chapter 2742: It’s not that I don’t want to go out, it’s that I can’t!

Only after having his fill of food and drink did Lin Chen stop asking about the female immortals. Instead, he merely chatted away, sharing various amusing anecdotes from his experiences.

Listening intently was Guan Xia, and it wasn’t just her—Lin Chen even noticed several other female immortals nearby pricking up their ears.

They seemed quite interested in the outside world!

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to leave; it was clearly because they couldn’t!

They were cultivated by Gathering Immortal Island to seduce people—how could Gathering Immortal Island possibly let them leave?

In the Main Hall, the guests who had eaten and drunk their fill would leave with the accompaniment of handmaids, heading to their respective lodgings.

In the following days, the guests could enjoy fine foods and wines provided by Gathering Immortal Island and be accompanied by beautiful women, living a few comfortable days of an Immortal’s life.

Having eaten and drunk his fill, Lin Chen didn’t linger any longer and left the Main Hall with Guan Xia.

Guan Xia led Lin Chen along until they arrived at a secluded and elegantly situated small house amidst the mountains.

Lin Chen looked around and said with a laugh, "Gathering Immortal Island really spares no expense. Each guest has a place like this to rest—I thought all the guests would be staying in rooms right next to each other, like in an inn."

Guan Xia pushed open the room door and replied softly, "This is my place of residence."

Lin Chen turned sharply, "Your residence?"

Guan Xia nodded, her gaze slightly lowered, "Every one of us handmaids has her own separate residence. Each guest will be taken to her residence by the handmaid who chose him..."

Guan Xia didn’t finish her sentence, but Lin Chen had already understood.

Gathering Immortal Island, not bad at all!

They cultivate so many female immortals, and then they serve the guests attending the Gathering of Immortals Meet one by one, bringing them back to their own residences. The implication was very clear.

These handmaids were there for all-around company—to accompany in eating, drinking, entertainment, and sleep. In short, to hook the guests and ensure their satisfaction!

Having understood this, Lin Chen kept an expression of ignorance on his face and laughed, "A secluded small building with beautiful scenery and quite a distance from the other small buildings—these conditions are quite nice."

Upon entering the room, and just as Guan Xia was about to lead Lin Chen to the master bedroom, her own bedroom, Lin Chen spoke up, "Where is the guest room? I see you have more than one room here. I’d like to pick a room with a good view and good ventilation... Can I choose?"

Guan Xia looked at Lin Chen and said softly, "Young Master, you can pick any room here. If you want a room with a good view and ventilation, the one I used to sleep in... is quite nice."

Lin Chen, pretending he didn’t quite grasp the underlying meaning of Guan Xia’s words, just chuckled, "A gentleman doesn’t take what other people fancy, I’ll just pick one of the guest rooms."

Guan Xia blinked, "Young Master, please follow me."

Lin Chen followed Guan Xia to a guest bedroom opposite the master bedroom. Entering the room and looking around, Lin Chen said with a laugh, "This room isn’t bad; I’ll stay here."

"Yes, Young Master, I’ll prepare the necessary items for you now."

"Thank you, that would be great!"

Once the room was set up, Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I drank too much, and my head is a bit dizzy; I’m going to sleep for a while."

Guan Xia responded, "All right, Young Master, if there is anything you need, just call for me."

"Okay, you can go and rest too."

Lin Chen sent Guan Xia away, closed the room door, and lay down on the bed.

After entering Gathering Immortal Island and enjoying a feast, he had learned a bit more about the island, which added to his feeling of repulsion.

Which righteous Xianmen would cultivate a multitude of female immortals to seduce others, using this method to attract talented individuals to join?

What Ming Lan spoke of regarding contracts and collaborations sounded quite good, but at this point, Lin Chen didn’t dare to completely believe it.

Perhaps the only good news was what Ming Lan mentioned: Gathering Immortal Island possessed a Metal Attribute Exquisite Technique!

He could verify this later with Guan Xia. Given her long residence here, she ought to know.

Lin Chen rested for a while, absorbing all the benefits of the Immortal Wine and delicacies. He became spirited again and then left the room.

Guan Xia didn’t need to be called by Lin Chen, as she had already come out of the master bedroom.

"Young Master, did you rest well?"

Lin Chen replied casually, "My surname is Lin, and my name is Lin Xi. You can just call me by my name..."

Guan Xia shook her head, "That wouldn’t do. We must treat our guests with the utmost courtesy, otherwise, the guests would think that we from Gathering Immortal Island are rude and unappreciative."

Lin Chen had no choice but to acquiesce, "Then show me around."

"Certainly, Young Master."

Guan Xia led Lin Chen away from the residence, asking, "Young Master Lin, where would you like to go?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "It doesn’t matter; you decide. Just aimlessly wandering because I can’t just wake up from the drunken state and immediately go back to getting smashed. Immortal wine is good, but one shouldn’t be greedy."

Guan Xia smiled, "Then I’ll take you around this area. There are a few places worth seeing."

Lin Chen casually inquired, "The people from Gathering Immortal Island don’t live here?"

Guan Xia shook her head, "This is the site of the Gathering of Immortals Meet. All the buildings and personnel here exist for the Gathering of Immortals Meet. It’s only used once every five hundred years. The actual disciples of Gathering Immortal Island live in the North, tens of thousands of miles from here..."
