That night, Wang Baole's shop was filled with a very serious atmosphere.
The voluptuous female shopkeeper, the dwarf, and the others were all staring at the scale on the table, their eyes filled with nervousness. Across from them were four other people.
Two of them were burly, one was a young man who looked like a shop assistant, and the other was an old man. All of them had bitter expressions on their faces as they glanced up at the second floor.
These people were the people who originally owned the shop next door. They had barged into the shop that day, and after a friendly discussion with Wang Baole, they were touched and decided to join the big family. They were willing to give up their shop and contribute their efforts to the promotion of the Ice Spirit Water.
However, at this moment, their eyes were also filled with nervousness. It was clear that the scale on the table had a very different meaning to them.
"Blood Linzi has his eyes on us …."
"Blood Linzi is superior to us, the people who feed ourselves. Why would he set his eyes on a small shop like ours?"
"Blood Linzi is already a headache, and that's not to mention the Fleshy Apprentice behind him!"
As they discussed the matter in hushed tones, they glanced up at the second floor. After a long moment passed, the door to the second floor opened, and Wang Baole walked out.
As soon as they saw Wang Baole, they all bowed their heads and dropped to their knees to kowtow to Wang Baole.
"Greetings, boss."
Wang Baole's face was expressionless as he walked down the stairs. His aura emanated out, causing the hearts of the eight people to tremble. They didn't dare to raise their heads, and could only watch as Wang Baole walked down the stairs and appeared in front of them.
Of course, they were in awe of Wang Baole. Another reason was that the pressure radiating off of him was so intense that it made it difficult for them to even breathe. It was as if their Cultivation bases were being suppressed.
All of this had happened after Wang Baole had taken over the second shop. More and more people had come to buy Ice Spirit Water, and more and more people had come to buy it.
Wang Baole stood in front of the crowd. He didn't say anything. He simply picked up the scale from the table and walked toward the door. When he pushed it open, he spoke coolly.
"They won't be able to see the sky tomorrow." With that, Wang Baole walked out of the shop. Only after he left did the people in the shop dare to look up. Their bodies were drenched in cold sweat as they exchanged glances. They could see the fear in each other's eyes.
"Boss, he … what is his current cultivation level? Where did he come from?"
"It's too scary. It's only been a few months, but why do I feel like I'm facing the Lord of Gluttony every time I see him?"
"Everyone, we don't know the origin of the Boss, but this time, it might be a good opportunity for us to rise up in Appetite City! Once Master gets rid of Blood Scale, we'll definitely enter the Gluttony Lord's sights … "The female shopkeeper licked her lips, her eyes sparkling. She had completely surrendered.
When the others heard her words, they also fell silent. Slowly, their eyes began to shine with ambition.
No one continued to speak. The shop was silent as everyone waited for the result.
Wang Baole didn't pay attention to what was happening in the shop. At this moment, he was walking on the streets of Appetite City. The sky was dark, and the sounds of people swallowing could be heard from the buildings around him. However, when Wang Baole walked past them, the sounds would abruptly stop, as if someone was choking them, not daring to make the slightest sound.
Every now and then, gazes would open in the darkness and sweep towards Wang Baole. Then, those gazes would disappear instantly, retracting and retreating hastily, as if they were afraid that they would be swallowed up if they were too slow.
All of this was because of the terrifying aura emanating from Wang Baole's body. It was like a vortex, drawing in all the wandering Gluttony.
After merging with the second shop, the vortex formed by the Seed of Appetite within Wang Baole grew even more majestic. At the same time, after absorbing the aura of Gluttony for several months, the vortex grew even more majestic. At the same time, a black crystal formed within it.
This crystal was completely formed from natural law. As soon as it was formed, it replaced all of the natural law in Wang Baole's body, becoming the most powerful force he could unleash.
"I call this state the Flesh and Blood Body," he murmured. Wang Baole muttered to himself. He was neither happy nor sad as he walked forward slowly. If one were to look down from above, they would clearly see that Wang Baole's body had disappeared and was replaced by a gigantic, pitch-black vortex.
It was like a Buddha's Wheel, constantly expanding. All of the residents in the area trembled and bowed their heads. Not a single sound could be heard as they watched Meng Hao depart, as if he were a god.
It was in this fashion that Wang Baole walked further and further away. His aura grew more intense, and the black vortex grew even more monstrous. His goal, however, had not changed at all. It was none other than … the resplendent, luxurious four-story restaurant at the end of the street.
At the same time, a middle-aged Cultivator sat cross-legged on the third floor of the restaurant. He suddenly opened his eyes. His hair was the color of blood, and his body was covered with scales. He looked like a Demonic beast, but his eyes shone brightly as he looked out the window.
Considering the level of his Cultivation base, it only took a single glance for him to see the terrifying black vortex slowly approaching. When he saw it, his face flickered, and his pupils constricted. He began to pant, and was just about to rise to his feet when suddenly … a pair of eyes appeared within the black vortex.
The eyes were completely emotionless. They were like two abysses as they stared at him. That gaze caused the Cultivator's mind to reel, and the world around him to grow blurry. He suddenly seemed to lose his mind, and was thrown into a state of confusion.
As a result, he did not notice that the vortex he was looking at, which was originally in the distance, had instantly appeared outside the door of the restaurant as if it was flickering.
As he got closer, the luxurious and dazzling restaurant was immediately enveloped by the black aura from the black vortex. The door of the restaurant let out a loud bang and shattered inch by inch. It crumbled and tumbled backwards.
A figure formed entirely of black mist, like a demon from the depths of the abyss, lifted its foot and stepped into the restaurant. As it did, the black mist began to spread out. Everywhere it passed, everything withered. The black mist was like a ghost, transforming into strands that wrapped around the dozens of waiters on the first floor of the restaurant, whose faces were filled with shock.
It lifted them up high into the air. No matter how they struggled, no matter how they cried for help, it was useless. As the black mist figure neared, their bodies began to burn, and soon, they were nothing more than ash ….
It was as if something inside of them had been ignited!
Only miserable cries could be heard echoing out from outside of the restaurant. They lingered there for a long time, shocking all of the trembling residents in the area, and causing them to bow their heads in worship.
