Zhu had completely disassociated himself from this matter as if he had not been present at all.
Lin Ray shrugged his shoulders indifferently as he stared at Zhu. He had long expected Zhu to react in this manner. Hence, Lin Ray had never thought that Zhu would be able to help.
He ignored Zhu and turned towards the Scarlet Flaming Tiger and said, "Xiao Hu, believe in your Brother Lei."
"In the past, we've been able to survive so many life and death situations. What's more, this little bit of trouble is nothing!"
"Tsk, this little bit of trouble. Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue when you talk big?" He glanced sideways at Lin Ray and Zhu Zhu and curled his lips as if he was not optimistic about their chances.
"Brother Lei, let's …"
"Let's go. We'll find a restaurant and eat and drink while we wait for someone. I believe that it won't be long before someone will come knocking on our door. When that time comes, we'll have a better understanding of the Underworld."
After saying his piece, Lin Ray walked into the distance, leaving Zhu and Zhu Zhu with a deep and distant view of his back.
Zhu felt somewhat puzzled as he stared at Lin Ray's departing figure. He simply could not understand how someone at Lin Ray's level of cultivation could act so pretentiously without any fear!
"Let's go!"
Zhu reminded Zhu Zhu before he chased after Lin Ray.
The news of the shop burning down spread like the autumn wind throughout Huang Hui City. There were all sorts of versions of the story.
Some said that an enemy had come to seek revenge. Some said that the shop owner had failed to pay up and had ended up with his entire family being destroyed. Some said that the shop owner had forcefully kidnapped a woman and had provoked an existence that he could not afford to offend.
There were all sorts of versions of the story. However, they did not notice that after this incident had occurred, no guards from the city had come to deal with it. Instead, they had allowed the fire to continue to burn.
As for the rule that no one was allowed to kill in the city, everyone seemed to have forgotten about it as they quietly watched the raging fire burn wantonly.
As the saying goes, one family rejoiced while another grieved. The shops that had been robbed of their business were now very happy to see their competitors die an unnatural death. Some had even booked a banquet in a restaurant to celebrate the arrival of their good day.
At the center of the city, within the Yuan Tower. Under the guidance of the waiter, Linley, Little Tiger, and Zhu arrived at a table and sat down.
"What would the three of you like to eat? In our Yuan Restaurant, there are only things that you can't think of. There's nothing that Yuan Restaurant can't make." As he spoke, he took out the menu from his body. A thick book as thick as a Chinese dictionary appeared in front of Lin Ray.
"Dong". The moment the menu was placed on the table, Lin Ray felt that the table couldn't bear it anymore. He even started to feel sad for the table.
"Are … are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Looking at the menu in front of him, the corner of Xiao Hu's mouth twitched and he felt dizzy. It was just a meal, was there a need to make it so grand?
"Dear guest, you must be joking. You're the most distinguished guest of our Yuan Pavilion. Tell me, why do I feel that I'm not obedient to you?"
As he spoke, he took a step forward and opened the Chinese dictionary-like thing on the table. Suddenly, the contents of the book appeared in front of Lin Ray.
"Origin nourishing food, soup made from various spiritual herbs, meat from various spiritual beasts. It's tasty and will obviously increase the spiritual energy in your body."
"Oh, not bad."
Looking at the introduction on the menu, Lin Ray's interest was piqued. He had eaten many things before, but this was the first time he had seen something like this.
"Brother Lei, I'm hungry, I want to eat!" At the side, Xiaohu was already impatient and drooling.
As for Zhu, she was even more so. After all, she had been imprisoned for so many years. Now that she was finally out, it was inevitable that she would want to eat.
Just like that, Lin Ray didn't wait for the waiter to continue and closed the menu.
"Dear guest, is it because I didn't take good care of you or …" Lin Ray's action attracted the waiter's attention. He thought that he wasn't good enough, but in fact, that wasn't the case.
Looking at the waiter's nervous expression, Lin Ray smiled and waved his hand indifferently. "You're thinking too much. The reason why I'm doing this is because I want to ask you to give me a copy of the entire menu. Of course, this is just the beginning. If we're happy, we'll continue."
"Oh, right!"
Eating without drinking would reduce the fragrance by half. He raised his head and looked at the drinks on the counter and continued, "Give me the best drinks you have."
"Oh, right …" He pointed at the table beside him. "If you buy it, give me a copy of the exact same one. Remember, the exact same one!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire hall fell silent. Only now did Linley realize that everyone's gazes were focused on him.
Looking at the shocked and incredulous eyes of the crowd, Lin Ray didn't bother to pay attention to them. He believed that what he ordered was far from enough. After all, he was sitting with two demonic beasts.
Their tastes were very big, especially for a beast like Zhu, who was even more like a bottomless pit.
"…"
"You … have a problem?"
Right now, the waiter was standing off to the side, his mouth wide open. Linley frowned as he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Hey, little guy. My Brother Lei is asking you a question." The Scarlet Flaming Tiger spoke. He hated it when Lin Ray's orders were questioned, especially by this mortal in front of him.
Sure enough, after being reprimanded by the Scarlet Flame Tiger, the waiter came back to his senses and stammered with an awkward expression, "Customers, are … are you serious?"
The waiter didn't believe it. In his heart, the three people in front of him were just making fun of him. If he had known earlier, the entire restaurant wouldn't be able to hold all the dishes on the menu.
Especially when many of the ingredients required the meat of demonic beasts as the main ingredient. Usually, only the people with the highest status in Huang Hui City could afford such expensive ingredients.
Of course, if one were to open his mouth and ask for an entire book of dishes like Linley, it was likely that no one in Huang Hui City would have the courage to do so.
"Sigh, annoying!"
Lin Ray naturally understood the waiter's hesitation. However, he really didn't have anything like the Nether Jade.
He turned his head and looked at Zhu, who was watching the show. He stretched out his hand and said, "Take it out. Don't think that I don't know that you were just sealed back then. Moreover, I don't believe that you didn't leave yourself some backup plan or resources!"
"You …"
Zhu was dumbfounded. So, after being so extravagant for so long, he was the one who paid the bill in the end!
When he thought of that nouveau riche appearance just now, Zhu had the impulse to go up and give him a good beating.
Unfortunately, he knew that it was impossible. Now, his freedom was completely in the hands of Lin Ray. If he didn't serve Lin Ray well, he would lose his freedom.
Thinking of this, Zhu smiled in relief. "Of course, since we've come here, our first meal naturally has to be bought by the local Emperor!" As he said this, he put on a fake smile and handed over a Netherworld Jade that was emitting a faint light to the waiter.
