Boundless Ocean City, Gourmet Restaurant, the most luxurious restaurant in the entire city.
The restaurant was divided into three floors. Each floor could accommodate a thousand people, and it was more than enough.
In addition to the luxurious decorations of the restaurant, the dishes were all delicacies and rare treasures. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a luxurious palace.
For ordinary mercenaries, a place like this was something they could only dream of. They could not afford to be extravagant.
This was because every table here required at least a fifth-grade immortal herb. Ordinary people could not afford such a price. Even if they could afford it, they would not be willing to spend it like this.
However, the third floor of the restaurant was reserved by Xing Jue. To thank these mercenaries, Xing Jue treated them to a meal at the high price of nearly a hundred fifth-grade immortal herbs.
Under their witness, Xing Jue had only obtained five thousand immortal herbs from the Bai Clan. Xing Jue felt that it was not excessive to take out a hundred immortal herbs to reward them.
Furthermore, Xing Jue had obtained over a thousand immortal herbs and a Common Grade Honorable Weapon from the Bai Clan's Third Young Mistress, Bai Lu, and her followers. His harvest was quite bountiful.
"Brother Xing Jue, you're so generous. This is my first time coming to this restaurant. You've fulfilled one of my wishes." A man reeking of alcohol raised the cup in his hand and toasted Xing Jue.
"Brother Xing Jue, you're so impressive. Not only did you capture that demoness, you were also able to destroy the formation so easily. If I'm not wrong, you're at least an Asura Martial God, right?"
A lady walked over to Xing Jue's side with a flushed face and asked in a sweet voice. Her eyes were filled with adoration.
Not only was Xing Jue powerful, he had also saved everyone. Furthermore, he was generous. Thus, he had successfully won over the hearts of the crowd. They all toasted Xing Jue with gratitude and admiration.
When Xing Jue came out of this place, he was unfamiliar with the people and the place. To be able to drink with so many people who weren't scheming, Xing Jue also felt carefree and comfortable.
"Get lost, I'm going to the third floor. If you stop me again, I'll smash your restaurant!"
But at this moment, from the direction of the stairs leading from the second floor to the third floor, a young girl's fierce and angry rebuke suddenly came.
When that voice rang out, everyone present could not help but be stunned. Then, they all angrily looked in the direction of the stairs.
Now that they had reserved the entire third floor, it was only natural that these mercenaries were dissatisfied that someone was trying to force their way in.
"As expected, the Bai Clan won't let me take advantage of them so easily."
However, compared to the mercenaries who were blindly angry after three rounds of wine, Xing Jue had already recognized the identity of the person who had come. It was none other than the Bai Residence's third daughter, Bai Lu.
As Xing Jue had expected, a series of hurried footsteps rang out, and then dozens of figures appeared in the restaurant.
Every one of them had a ferocious look on their faces. They were wearing the same luxurious clothes, and their strengths were all at the Asura Martial God Realm.
The person in the lead was a young girl in a long white dress. Her features were delicate and pretty, but there was a hint of unruliness about her. It was obvious that she was the third daughter, Bai Lu.
The restaurant's owner and waiter did not dare to speak in front of these people. They could only stand to the side, trembling, and secretly transmitted a message to Xing Jue and the others to leave, and that they would pay double the price for the meal.
At this moment, the previously furious mercenaries also began to signal Xing Jue with their eyes. They did not dare to clash with the Bai Residence, for no other reason than that they could not afford to offend them.
However, who was Xing Jue? He had always liked to cause trouble, but he was not afraid of it.
He had already expected such a scene. He knew that even if he compromised today, it would be difficult for him to escape the Bai Residence's wrath in the future.
Therefore, Xing Jue ignored the gazes of the crowd and the countless secret transmissions. He continued to gorge himself with food, and occasionally called out to the others.
Bai Lu had long hated Xing Jue to the core. Now that she saw that Xing Jue had actually ignored her, her face turned red with anger, and she gnashed her teeth.
"I've booked this place. All of you, scram!" Bai Lu shouted loudly.
"Miss, I think you've made a mistake."
"I've already booked this place. If you want to eat, I can make an exception and let you stay, but you don't have the right to chase us away." Xing Jue wiped his mouth, narrowed his eyes, and grinned.
"You've booked this place? Boundless Ocean City is my Bai Residence's territory. How can you behave so atrociously here? Men, chase them out! "Bai Lu raised her eyebrows and angrily berated.
After hearing the young lady's order, the dozens of attendants behind her walked straight towards Xing Jue. They released a great pressure, and with each step they took, the restaurant would tremble violently, causing the hundreds of mercenaries to feel dizzy. They swayed left and right, and it was difficult for them to fend off the pressure as they retreated.
Bang!
However, as the Bai Residence's followers approached, Xing Jue suddenly stood up, like a furious god, or a ferocious devil, emitting a terrifying aura.
The invisible aura was like a torrential wave, like a surging river, sweeping out in an unstoppable manner.
Hurried footsteps could be heard, and the dozens of Asura Martial God followers were forced to retreat. In the end, even Bai Lu was suppressed by Xing Jue's aura to a corner of the restaurant. Their faces were ugly, and they could not stand up at all.
Xing Jue's aura was too strong. Many of the followers present were mid-level Asura Martial Gods, the same level as Xing Jue. However, in front of Xing Jue, they were so weak that they could not even fight back. It was only when Xing Jue withdrew his aura that the situation was alleviated.
At this moment, the gazes of the followers, including Bai Lu, toward Xing Jue had changed, filled with indescribable complicated emotions.
"The Bai Residence is indeed extraordinary. I'm just exchanging for the reward, yet you've come to find trouble with me, Xing Jue. Are you the overlord of Ocean City? Aren't you the overlord of the Western Sacred World? Do you really think everyone is afraid of you? "
Xing Jue's voice was like rolling thunder, causing the restaurant to tremble. Everyone in Ocean City could hear his voice clearly.
"What's going on? Did the Bai Residence bully us again? "
"That voice is so strong. He must be an expert. It seems like the Bai Residence has kicked an iron plate this time."
"I heard that the First Young Master and Second Young Master of the Bai Residence are not here. I wonder who in the Bai Residence can resist such a person."
At this moment, everyone who heard the voice rushed toward the Delicacy Tower. In just a short moment, the entire Delicacy Tower was surrounded by experts from all over, wanting to see what was going on.
"Nonsense, I'm only here to eat, I'm not here to find trouble with you." Seeing this scene, Bai Lu felt a little guilty and hurriedly tried to explain.
The reputation of the Bai Residence was not good to begin with. However, the Bai Residence still needed to establish a foothold here. If they lost the hearts of the people, they would incur the wrath of the people. If the Bai Residence was in trouble in the future, they might end up in a pitiful situation.
Hence, in order to regain the hearts of the people, the First Young Master of the Bai Residence had specially warned Bai Lu not to act arrogantly in front of outsiders and not to damage the reputation of the Bai Residence.
And now, Xing Jue had attracted so many people and even used the excuse of the Bai Residence to find trouble with him. This caused the young Bai Lu to feel a headache.
"Not looking for trouble? The third floor of the Delicacy Tower has already been reserved by us brothers. What's the meaning of you coming here to make a fuss and chase us away? "
"The Delicacy Tower has a total of three floors. No one has reserved the first and second floors, but you insist on coming to the third floor. Are you saying that I'm looking for trouble with you?" Xing Jue loudly questioned.
"You're talking nonsense. I clearly reserved the third floor first. Store owner, tell everyone, was this floor reserved by me and then forcefully occupied by them?"
Bai Lu began to twist words and force logic. As she looked at the shopkeeper, she secretly threatened him.
In this situation, the shopkeeper was extremely flustered. How could he dare to offend someone from the Bai Residence in Ocean City? Thus, he didn't even think about it before trying to twist the truth and push the blame onto Xing Jue in front of everyone.
"Shopkeeper, you must be honest. The eyes of the public are as clear as snow. You should think about the consequences of hiding the truth."
But just at this moment, Xing Jue's indifferent voice suddenly rang out. When the shopkeeper saw Xing Jue's narrowed eyes, his body immediately froze as if he had been petrified. It took him a moment to recover.
At this moment, he was already drenched in sweat and panting. In the end, he weakly said, "It was this young master who reserved this place first.
"It was this young master who booked this place first. Many waiters and guests can testify to that."
"You …"
The moment the shopkeeper said this, Bai Lu's little face immediately turned pale with anger. She gritted her teeth and glared at the shopkeeper, not understanding where he got the courage to defy her threat.
But how could she know that just now, the shopkeeper had felt an unprecedented fear. That fear was irresistible and made him submit to it from the depths of his soul.
At that moment, it was as if Xing Jue was the king who ruled over all things, and he was only a lowly existence among the multitudes.
At that moment, the shopkeeper realized that if he offended the Bai Residence, his family would be ruined. But if he offended Xing Jue, not only would his body and soul be destroyed, he would also suffer the pain of reincarnation.
"Sigh, as expected, the Bai Residence's third daughter is bullying others. If they do this, who would dare to accept their mercenary mission in the future?"
"That's right, the Bai Residence is really too unkind."
After knowing the answer, the surrounding crowd began to whisper among themselves. Although they were all whispering, it was still very harsh to Bai Lu's ears.
"Hmph."
Faced with this situation, Bai Lu was too ashamed to stay any longer. She coldly harrumphed and prepared to leave.
"How bold of you to use your power to oppress others. Do you really think there is no one in the Bai Residence?"
But at that moment, a loud voice came from the crowd.
At the same time, a figure flew in through the window and landed in the Delicacy House, next to Bai Lu.
It was a handsome young man in a snow-white robe with a feminine appearance. If it wasn't for the loud voice, people would have believed that it was a woman.
When this person appeared, everyone present was greatly alarmed. Those people who were whispering to each other earlier immediately became absolutely silent.
This was because he was the Second Young Master of the Bai Residence, Bai Yue, a junior disciple of the Sacred Alliance.
However, compared to his identity, his strength was enough to intimidate the crowd. Five years ago, he had stepped into the highest realm of the Asura Martial God Realm, becoming a high-rank Asura Martial God.
There was even a rumor that Bai Yue already had half a foot in the Asura Martial Spirit Realm. In less than half a year, he would become the second Asura Martial Spirit in Boundless Ocean City after his older brother, Bai He.
"Second Brother!"
Bai Lu was overjoyed to see Bai Yue. Her older brother's strength and wisdom far surpassed hers. She knew that today, Xing Jue was destined to suffer a tragedy.
