Lin Ray followed Gong Jun to a private room on the second floor. Gong Jun pushed the door open and a simple room appeared in front of Lin Ray.
"Sit down!"
When they arrived at the room, Gong Jun gestured for them to enter before closing the door. The two of them sat down and continued their conversation.
"From what you said, the Lord of Tianyuan City is quite a sentimental person." Although he had never met Liu Yuan, Lin Ray couldn't help but have a good impression of him after hearing Gong Jun's introduction.
"Alas, you're right!"
"Not bad. To be able to go to such lengths for the sake of his family, this person is very interesting. Let me ask you, in this world, how many people can do this?" As he spoke, Linley couldn't help but think of his deceased wife and son.
"Alas …!"
Seeing the sadness and longing in Lin Ray's eyes, Gong Jun knew that this person had a story.
He didn't expose him, but he didn't want to let the silence continue. He changed the subject. "Well … Brother Lin, I don't know why you've come to Heavenly Cloud City. If you need help, just tell me. Although I don't have much power in Heavenly Cloud City, I can help you with some trivial matters."
"Oh?"
Gong Jun's voice pulled him back to reality. He turned his head and smiled. "Brother Gong, why are you doing this? Today is the first day we've met!"
To tell the truth, Lin Ray was puzzled. It was the first time they'd met, but Gong Jun was doing this.
In the past, Lin Ray would have thought it was a conspiracy. But now … so what if it was a conspiracy? Was he afraid?
"Fate. Brother Lin, do you believe in fate?" Gong Jun understood Lin Ray's meaning.
"Fate?" Lin Ray's interest was piqued. "Fate is determined by man. I believe it, but I can't believe it completely. Why do you say so?"
"Good. Fate is determined by man. I don't know why, but I like you very much. And … judging by your extraordinary temperament, you're not a simple person."
Gong Jun smiled and continued, "And … we're all brothers in the world."
"All are brothers within the four seas …"
After hearing Gong Jun's words, Lin Ray could not help but repeat it. His eyes were filled with extraordinary splendor.
"Okay …!"
With a shout, Lin Ray took out two bottles of fruit wine from his interspatial ring and handed them to Gong Jun. He said, "Just because you said that everyone is my brother, from today onwards, you are my brother."
"Alright!"
Seeing that Lin Ray was so straightforward, Gong Jun didn't continue to be pretentious. He grabbed the cup and clinked it with Lin Ray's. Then, he tilted his head back and gulped down the wine. His actions were extremely forthright.
"Gulp, gulp, gulp." The sound echoed throughout the room, like a cow drinking water.
"Boom!" At this moment, a bottle of wine was finished by Lin Ray. The finished bottle was easily placed on the table by Lin Ray, issuing a muffled sound.
"Dong dong dong …"
Someone knocked on the door. Gong Jun stopped drinking. With a cold expression, he shouted at the door, "Come in!"
"Zhiya." The door was pushed open. A young man who looked like a butler came in from outside. When he saw Gong Jun's cold expression, the young man lowered his head and hurriedly said, "Boss, these are the dishes you ordered. All 18 dishes are here. Look …"
"En, serve the dishes!"
"Yes!"
Instantly, the young man acted as if he had been granted amnesty. He hurriedly waved to everyone behind him. In the next moment, waiters came in one after another. After placing the dishes on the table, they left on their own.
After a while, the dishes were served. The young man looked at them and saw that there was nothing for him to do. Then, he bowed and said, "Boss, if there's anything, just call me. I'll be waiting at the door."
Then, without waiting for Gong Jun's reply, he left the room and closed the door.
"Come, Brother Lin. Try my dishes and see if they're delicious …"
The moment the young man left, Gong Jun, who had a cold expression, immediately smiled and said to Lin Ray.
"Uh …"
Looking at Gong Jun's mood swings, Lin Ray smiled and didn't say anything. After all, this had nothing to do with him.
Even though he said that he was Gong Jun's brother, he would be heading to the Holy World in a hundred years. Whether or not he could meet Gong Jun was another matter.
Without thinking too much, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating. But really, Lin Ray didn't expect Gong Jun's dishes to be so delicious. The fragrance lingered in his mouth.
Coupled with the fruit wine he bought earlier, this meal could be said to be superb.
The meal didn't go quickly because Lin Ray still had many things to ask. Regarding this, Gong Jun could be said to have told him everything he knew.
In the end, Lin Ray asked all the questions he wanted to know. He even found the City Lord Mansion where Liu Yuan lived.
The City Lord Mansion was located at the center of Tianyuan City. Moreover, the City Lord Mansion was a landmark in Tianyuan City. It was easy to find.
Finally, it took them two hours to finish their meal. During those two hours, Gong Junyou ordered the young man to serve another dish.
"Oh, I'm finally full. I didn't expect Brother Gong's dishes to be so delicious. Really … Tsk tsk …" He smacked his lips and stroked his stomach.
"Hahaha …"
"As long as Brother Lin stays here, this Gong Family Restaurant will be your dining hall. You can eat whenever you want. Just tell the kitchen what you want to eat."
Looking at Lin Ray's appearance, Gong Jun directly said and ordered the young man outside.
"Haha, okay … It would be impolite of me to refuse!" Lin Ray didn't refuse. Of course, he couldn't eat for free. Moreover, he didn't lack money.
"Phew … Now that I'm full, it's time to get to work." Seeing that it was still early outside, Linley couldn't help but think of his mission. He rose to his feet, intending to bid farewell.
"Brother Gong, thank you for your hospitality this time. However, due to some urgent matters, I have to leave now."
"What? You're leaving now?" Seeing that Lin Ray was about to leave, Gong Jun was shocked. He quickly stood up and tried to persuade him to stay …
However … Lin Ray didn't give him a chance to persuade him to stay. "Yes! It's too urgent. Otherwise, I would really want to stay here. "
"I have no choice. I hope Brother Gong won't blame me!" Lin Ray said and bowed.
"You're too kind!" Seeing that Lin Ray had made up his mind, Gong Jun didn't say anything. However, he felt that it was a pity. It wasn't easy to meet someone who felt like an old friend at first sight. Now, he had to leave.
"Okay, Brother Gong. Let's part ways here."
"Okay, let's part ways here. However, if you have the chance in the future, you must come and visit me!"
"Okay!" He didn't stay any longer and turned to leave. Looking at Lin Ray's figure, Gong Jun quickly followed. He only stopped when he saw Lin Ray out of the restaurant and was stopped by Lin Ray.
"Sigh! I hope we can meet again in the future! Standing at the entrance of his restaurant, Gong Jun looked at Lin Ray's back until Lin Ray's figure completely disappeared into the sea of people. Then, he reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
He sighed and smiled bitterly with regret. Then, he turned and walked into the restaurant.
At this moment, after Lin Ray left the restaurant, he didn't stop for a moment. According to the information he received from Gong Jun, he went to the City Lord's Mansion. With Lin Ray's speed, it didn't take long for him to see the so-called landmark building.
Speaking of which, Gong Jun was actually right. The City Lord's Mansion was indeed a landmark building. However, the landmark Gong Jun mentioned was a little different from Lin Ray's imagination.
Combined with the City Lord's Mansion that he had seen before, Lin Ray couldn't believe that the house in front of him was full of Ultimate God Realm cultivators.
At this moment, it wasn't a big house with six entrances and six exits, nor was it an existence like a palace. At this moment, what appeared in front of Lin Ray was the kind of ordinary house that couldn't be more ordinary. Even … because the surrounding houses were very luxurious, it made the City Lord's Mansion look particularly miserable.
It was an earthen house with only two rooms and a small courtyard. Looking at the landmark building in front of him, Lin Ray was completely stunned.
What the hell is going on? Are they trying to find peace in this chaotic world? Or what?
"Zhi Ya!" Suddenly, the door of the earthen house opened, and a woman with a delicate and pretty face but a sickly appearance walked out.
Although her face was pale because of her illness, it didn't hide her beauty. What was a smile that could topple a city and then a country? Wasn't this what it meant? Typical …
Looking away from the woman, he said thoughtfully, "Is this Liu Yuan's daughter? It seems that she is indeed sick, but this illness … I feel like I've seen it before? "
Although he said he had seen it before, he couldn't think of where he had seen it. Perhaps it was because his memories had been extracted back then, so … Lin Ray wasn't very clear …
At this moment, the woman who had just walked out of the courtyard was seated on a stool by the door. She had a look of exhaustion on her face as she sat there. Perhaps because Linley had been standing there for a long time without leaving, the woman noticed Linley, and noticed that Linley's gaze had been fixed on her the entire time.
In response, the woman frowned and couldn't help but show a trace of anger on her face.
She got up and slowly walked towards Lin Ray. Lin Ray didn't know about this at all. At this moment, Lin Ray was still thinking about the woman's illness.
She wasn't too far away to begin with. Soon, the woman arrived in front of Linley. Seeing that he was still staring ahead … the woman immediately said, "I say, this … young master, what are you doing? Why are you staring at me … staring at my door?"
The woman originally wanted to ask why he was staring at her, but she felt that it wasn't good to say such things in public. She immediately changed her name and changed it to 'home'.
"Hm?"
When he came back to his senses and saw the woman standing in front of him with a trace of anger on her face, Lin Ray frowned but didn't pay it any mind.
"Miss, may I know if your father, Liu Yuan, is here?" He didn't answer the woman's question and directly asked about Liu Yuan's location.
"My father?"
The woman frowned when she saw the person before her. Liu Yuan was a name that no one in the entire Tianyuan City dared to know. Moreover, Lin Ray was an unfamiliar face. At this moment, the woman took two steps back vigilantly.
"Who are you? Why are you looking for my father?" Others might not know, but she knew very well that her father had a lot of enemies. Although the person before her looked very young, she couldn't guarantee that he wasn't her father's enemy.
"Eh …"
"Please don't misunderstand …" Seeing how vigilant she was, and recalling what Gong Jun said earlier, Lin Ray knew that she had misunderstood him.
"I am Lin Ray. Although I don't consider myself to be a good person, I'm definitely not a bad person either. Furthermore … the reason why I'm looking for your father is because I'm here to treat your illness."
"Hm? Treat my … illness? "The woman was startled when she heard those words. She had a puzzled expression on her face.
"That's right. I'm a member of the Talisman Sect. I saw the mission your father issued and came here to investigate." As he spoke, he took out the Talisman Sect's disciple competition for her to examine.
"Are you really a disciple of the Talisman Sect?" As she spoke, she took the token and looked at the information on it. For a moment, her vigilant expression lessened.
"Yes. So … your father, Liu Yuan, he … where is he right now?" Linley asked once more.
"Eh … He's … He's inside!" When the woman saw the serious expression on Lin Ray's face, she quickly returned the token to Lin Ray. Then, she made an inviting gesture and said to Lin Ray.
"Alright. I'll have to trouble you then!" After he spoke, Lin Ray didn't say anything else.
"You … You're welcome!" After she spoke, she turned around and led Lin Ray to her house.
She pushed open the door and led Lin Ray into the house. Although it looked small from the outside, there was indeed a whole new world inside.
The moment they stepped into the house, a space appeared in front of Lin Ray. When Lin Ray saw the space that was opened up, he was shocked.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. How generous. I was wondering why a Supreme God cultivator would live in a mud house." As he thought about it, he didn't say anything else.
Suddenly, the woman who was leading the way stopped and turned around to remind Lin Ray, "Young Master Lin, you must be careful when you see my father later!"
"Eh? Why? "He didn't understand what the woman meant.
"My father often blames himself and loses his temper because of what happened to me. I'm afraid it will affect you, so …" As she spoke, the woman looked guilty.
"Oh … Alright. I'll try my best to listen to your kind advice."
"Alright! Let's go! "Seeing that Lin Ray had agreed, the woman smiled. Then, they continued walking.
To be honest, the space was quite big. However, compared to the Secret Land of the Xuanzong Sect, it was just a drop in the ocean.
After a few minutes, the woman led Lin Ray to a room and stopped outside. "Father, the people from the Talisman Sect are here to see you!"
"I won't see them. Ask them to leave!" Before the woman could finish her sentence, a violent and anxious voice came from the room.
"Eh?"
When Lin Ray heard that, he frowned. However, when he saw the woman in front of him, his frown disappeared.
With an amused smile, he looked around the room and said, "Alright, since Divine Lord Liu has said so, then I won't waste my energy to save a dying man. If that's the case … then I'll take my leave."
