The interior of the restaurant was antique, and there were ancient paintings hanging on the walls.
Long Chen looked at the ink paintings and couldn't help but be stunned.
Inside the paintings were the scenes of the Corpse World and the Ten Heavens Territory.
The first painting was of a Pill Tower standing on several mountains, and the Pill Tower was surrounded by a cauldron.
The second painting was of a city full of peach blossoms.
…
"You can eat or drink today, and it's free of charge." As soon as Long Chen sat down, a gray-haired old man came over with his little daughter.
The little girl pulled the old man's clothes and looked at Long Chen evasively with her big eyes. She seemed to be afraid of strangers.
Long Chen looked at them and frowned when he heard the old man's words. He said faintly, "Old man, you don't want money, but the restaurant shouldn't be so empty."
The old man didn't answer. He just smiled bitterly and walked to the kitchen.
After a short while, he came out with three dishes, a few kilograms of beast meat, and two pots of good wine.
The old man sat down after the dishes were served.
His youngest daughter bounced up and down and sat on his lap. The old man's face was filled with doting love.
The old man raised the pot and filled Long Chen's wine cup. He then poured wine for himself and pushed the cup and pot away from the little girl. He sighed, "My restaurant hasn't been open for half a month. I opened it today to close the business, but you came in …"
Long Chen drank and ate. He nodded slightly, and the taste was good.
It was inappropriate for a restaurant to close here.
"Old man, are you having some difficulties? If this restaurant closes, it won't be easy for you and the little girl to live in the Remnant Land. "Long Chen rubbed the little girl's hair and said casually.
Long Chen felt close to this restaurant, and it would be a pity to close it.
Moreover, as he said, if the old man and the little girl walked out of the restaurant, they would become slaves without protection.
The old man drank the strong wine in one gulp. His face was a little red, and his voice was a little hoarse as he said, "The problem isn't the restaurant, but the signboard."
"Don't judge the restaurants on this street because they are all doing things against their conscience. It's better for them to close down!"
The signboard can't be used anymore?
Long Chen frowned and put down the chopsticks in his hand. He frowned and asked, "Why can't we use the signboard …"
The old man seemed to be interested as well. Just as he was about to speak, he was abruptly interrupted by a harsh voice.
The door of the restaurant shattered into pieces. Smoke and dust billowed towards Long Chen and the old man.
When Long Chen saw this, he snorted coldly. A ray of Five Elements Brilliance swept away all the debris and dust around him.
"Yo, there's a Great Emperor here. No wonder you dared to open the door so openly." Three tall and burly middle-aged men walked in.
The three of them were all around the third level of the Martial Monarch Realm. They were dressed rather stoutly. Their robes and belts were all inlaid with golden treasures.
The three of them stared at Long Chen with a playful look in their eyes as they sneered.
Seeing the three of them walk over, the old man hurriedly bowed and greeted them. He said respectfully, "I'm closing the door now. Brother, you're just passing by."
"Old man, you're quite stubborn. Why don't you just stay here and run the restaurant? I'll give you one cent less every month!"
The leader of the middle-aged men snorted coldly. A wave of pressure pressed down on the old man, forcing him to kneel on the ground. A few drops of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The little girl hurriedly ran over. Her face was covered in tears. "Bad people, bad people bully grandpa!"
The middle-aged man had no intention of holding back when the little girl rushed over. Instead, he smiled and said, "Since you insist on closing the door, why don't you let me take this little slave away …"
Pa!
The pressure around the old man suddenly disappeared. Long Chen did not move. He threw out a wine cup and hit the middle-aged man's right hand back.
He frowned and asked in a low voice, "Who are you people?"
The three men's faces darkened. They said coldly, "Boy, you're an Martial Monarch. We don't want to make things difficult for you. Kneel down and kowtow twice. Don't be a busybody here."
"If you still want to stay in the Remnant Land, don't be an eyesore here!"
The three of them were only in the Martial Monarch Realm. They could not detect Long Chen's cultivation. However, they were fearless. It was obvious that they had some backing.
In the Remnant Land, an Martial Monarch Realm cultivation was enough to dominate most people.
Hearing the three men's words, Long Chen slowly stood up.
He waved his right hand. The old man and the little girl were swept up by a ray of light and gently landed on the side.
Then, a vast pressure fell on the three people in front of him.
Plop!
The three men's faces suddenly turned pale. They spat out a mouthful of blood. They felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them. They could not even breathe.
After a muffled sound, the three men's knees went soft and they knelt on the ground.
The three men's faces changed. They were all Level Three Martial Monarchs. Even a Mid-stage Martial Monarch could not suppress them. In other words, Long Chen was at least in the Late-stage Martial Monarch Realm!
In the Remnant Land, a Late-stage Martial Monarch Realm was considered the top combat power.
Long Chen stared at the three men and said indifferently, "Who are you? Why are you making things difficult for the Cloud Sea Pavilion …"
The three men's faces were pale. Their eyes were filled with ferocity and a hint of fear.
The leader stared at Long Chen and said in a low voice, "We're from the Eagle Head Celestial Clan. It's not your place to interfere. Otherwise …"
Bang!
Before he could finish his sentence, he was pressed to the ground by a powerful aura. His entire face was pressed against the ground.
The powerful pressure caused the ground where his body came into contact with the ground to crack inch by inch and drip with blood.
Long Chen's voice was cold. He said coldly, "Answer whatever I ask!"
The Eagle Head Celestial Clan.
When Long Chen heard this, an inexplicable anger surged in his heart.
When he first came to the Remnant Land, his Emperor Origin Energy was increasing every month. In one month, he had to hand over several months' worth of Emperor Origin Energy to others.
He did not want to talk about these things, but he did not expect the Eagle Head Celestial Clan to attack the Yun Family.
Before Long Chen left, he had handed over all the people from the Corpse World to the Yun Family. If the Eagle Head Celestial Clan had no scruples, the Yun Family's situation could be imagined.
The old man's face was full of panic. He quickly walked behind Long Chen. After knowing Long Chen's cultivation, he was much more respectful to Long Chen.
"Little brother, let them go quickly. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll get into big trouble!" The old man's voice was full of worry.
Before Long Chen could say anything, the leader of the group said in a ferocious voice, "If you let us go now, you may still have a chance to live …"
Long Chen narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "A chance to live depends on whether you know what's good for you …"
