That night, very few people in Gluttony City could stay calm until dawn.
The battle of meat paste that took place that night shook the entire city. In this battle, the veteran meat paste disciple behind the Bloodscale Restaurant, Yun Lingzi, was suppressed by an unknown person.
There were no twists and turns in the whole process of suppression. Under the even more terrifying Law of Desire, Yun Lingzi was so weak that he couldn't even withstand a single blow. After being suppressed, all the Law in his body was devoured by the opponent, directly turning him into a cripple.
This scene shook the entire city, causing the hearts of most of the cultivators in Gluttony City to rumble. At the same time, they also felt a strong sense of awe towards the sudden rise of the meat paste disciple.
Although Gluttony City was chaotic, where the strong preyed on the weak, such an unscrupulous and cruel way of doing things still made most of the people in Gluttony City feel fear.
Even the other meat paste disciples were like this, and attached great importance to this new cultivator.
Not to mention, this battle also caused the two Lords of Gluttony to make a move. One side wanted to punish this new meat paste disciple, while the other side wanted to intercept. Although these two only made simple moves, as Lords of Gluttony, their every move was naturally earth-shattering. Even if they fought from a distance, it still caused the entire Gluttony City to tremble.
But compared to them, the female shopkeeper and the others in the shop were the most dumbfounded. The shock and horror in their hearts was like a tide that almost drowned them.
They knew that their boss was very strong, but no matter what, they didn't expect his strength to be to such a terrifying extent. They also didn't expect that in this battle, he not only easily suppressed the enemy, but also caused the Lord of Gluttony to make a move.
All this caused them to closely observe Wang Baole after he left, and they all trembled. Especially when Wang Baole's figure appeared on the street, step by step, the awe in their eyes turned into fanaticism. Even when he was still far away, they immediately knelt down and bowed respectfully.
Ignoring the eight people waiting for him at the door, Wang Baole walked past them, stepped into the shop, and went up to the second floor. With a bang, the door of the shop closed. Only then did the eight people kneeling outside the shop look up, and they couldn't control the intense excitement in their eyes.
"Rise, we … are going to rise!"
Their breaths quickened as they exchanged glances. They could see the excitement in each other's eyes. They were well aware that after this battle … the Happy Water would become a hot topic in the City of Gluttony. As the tide rose, the boat rose, and the price of their shops would rise in an exaggerated fashion.
While she was climbing up the ranks, the news about her boss would definitely become a hot topic in Appetite City. Thinking of this, the female shopkeeper's eyes burned with passion. She quickly returned to the shop and respectfully walked up the stairs. She knelt down in front of Wang Baole's house and spoke softly.
"Master, if outsiders ask, how should we tell them your name?"
This female shopkeeper had thought things through thoroughly. Although it didn't matter if they knew Wang Baole's name or not, from this moment on, Wang Baole needed to have a name. This would make it easier for him to rise, and it would also make it easier for the store to operate.
After a long while, Wang Baole's calm voice came from the house.
"Bing Lingzi."
"In addition, tomorrow, send 1,000 bottles of Bing Lingzi to Master Zhou Huo's residence."
Hearing this, the female shopkeeper immediately nodded and left. She gathered her companions and began to discuss the matter. The past few days had taught them a lot about their boss's personality. He didn't like to meddle in everything. Therefore, they still had a lot of autonomy when it came to running the shop.
Just like that, the next morning arrived. Thousands of Cultivators had gathered outside the shop in an endless stream. Some of these Cultivators came to line up every day, but there were even more who were shaken by the events of the previous night and wanted to pay their respects.
As they waited in line, the shop's door opened. The dwarf, Fatty, and the others walked out. They didn't open the shop immediately as usual. Instead, they walked up with their heads held high and their chests puffed out. Looking very proud, they took down the signboard and replaced it with a new one.
Then, they stood on the left and right side of the shop. Their faces were filled with arrogance, and their bodies seemed to have become infinitely tall. They were tall enough to look down on the Cultivators lining up outside.
At the same time, as the signboard was replaced, everyone's eyes focused on it. They could clearly see the three words carved on the new signboard.
Ice Spirit Workshop!
These three words caused the people outside to focus. Fatty, who was still missing an eye, stood at the door. However, his posture was extremely proud as he spoke calmly.
"From today onwards, the Ice Spirit Workshop's Ice Spirit Water will change the way it is sold. It will no longer be on a first-come-first-serve basis. Instead, it will be a lottery system. Every hour, ten people will be selected."
As soon as he spoke, the people lining up outside immediately went into an uproar. Most of them weren't stupid. They immediately understood that this method would make it more difficult to obtain Ice Spirit Water. At the same time, it would also make the shop even more famous.
This would require people to line up outside the shop continuously.
If this method was in the past, it would definitely cause public outrage. However, after the battle last night, the Ice Spirit Workshop already had the right to be domineering.
Ignoring the crowd, Fatty turned around and walked into the shop. As for the dwarf, he chewed on the eyeball in his mouth as he gave out numbers to the crowd.
Gradually, as the new method of purchase was implemented, the number of people lining up outside the Ice Spirit Workshop didn't decrease. Instead, it increased. As for Wang Baole's name, as the number of people in the shop increased and the dwarf, Fatty, and the others deliberately spread the news, people gradually learned about him.
"Bing Lingzi!"
"That new Meat Pulp Disciple is called Bing Lingzi!"
The noise outside the shop didn't affect Wang Baole at all. Instead, as the number of people increased and the restriction on the Ice Spirit Water increased, his gluttony became even stronger.
This caused Wang Baole to sit cross-legged in the room. The black crystal in the vortex of the Law of Gluttony in his body shone even brighter. Just like that, a few days passed.
During these few days, the Ice Spirit Water caused a sensation in the City of Gluttony. It was no longer limited to the Eastern District. Even cultivators from other districts would come over because of its reputation. Although some people didn't bother to line up, all the cultivators who bought the Ice Spirit Water were obsessed. They could produce the effects of the Ice Spirit Water themselves. This caused the Ice Spirit Water to become popular in the City of Gluttony.
At the same time, Wang Baole's Daoist name also spread widely. In a short period of time, he became a celebrity in the City of Gluttony. It was also at this time that Zhou Huo, one of the Eight Lords of Gluttony, personally sent an invitation to the Ice Spirit Workshop by the housekeeper of his residence.
Zhou Huo invited Wang Baole to participate … in the Gluttony Festival and the banquet three days later.
