185: Dogs look down on people

If I think about it this way, I've been here for half a year.

Haven't I missed out on so many treasures?

Gu Changan immediately felt a heartache so intense he couldn't breathe!

Then he picked up his identity token and strode out of his Immortal Cave.

Entering Tianbao City again, it was just as bustling as before.

It seemed as though the deceit, being swindled, deception, and pillaging of the Cultivation World were completely invisible here.

It was as if this place were a pure land.

Gu Changan felt a momentary sense of haziness; this place felt too unreal.

Strolling along Tianbao Street, the bustling crowd and various sounds filled his ears.

Among them, the most important piece of news was that the monthly large-scale auction in Tianbao City was about to begin.

There were probably about three days left!

Gu Changan’s expression shifted; he absolutely had to go and experience an auction of this scale.

He hadn't yet seen what treasures from the Nascent Soul Stage looked like.

So, while taking advantage of these two days, he could also check out the black market in Tianbao City.

Gu Changan turned to the northeast corner of the outer city, which was the territory of Righteous Path Cultivators.

The restaurants opened there wouldn't have any messy or bloody food.

Gu Changan had been cultivating for so long, but he couldn't forget his own stomach.

After wandering around and checking a few places, he found a restaurant with decent decor.

Gu Changan found a window seat in the main hall and sat down, followed by an Attendant who remained silent.

He just stared quietly at Gu Changan’s feet, waiting for his instructions.

From his demeanor, Gu Changan could tell that this Attendant was somewhat arrogant.

In other shops, when a customer entered, they would immediately greet them, but here, he just kept a straight face and didn't speak.

Then, upon reflection, he understood; to be a waiter in Tianbao City, one must have some ability.

Looking down on outside Cultivators—thinking about the big cities in his previous life, it was pretty much the same!

Gu Changan was here to eat and didn't want to spoil his mood.

"What are your signature dishes here?"

At this moment, the Attendant's eyes began to drift toward the window: "Senior can order whatever you like!"

"Our shop provides everything!"

Seeing that his answer was irrelevant, Gu Changan figured he most likely looked down on him.

He then scanned his cultivation level and found that he had actually reached Late Stage Qi Refining.

Being able to look down on a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, he did have some grounds for confidence!

Gu Changan didn't want to lower himself to his level: "Then what kind of meat dishes do you have?"

The Attendant began to adjust his clothes: "What would Senior like to order?"

"We have everything here!"

Gu Changan’s temper flared up as well.

"Do you have Flame Fish?"

"Bring me one Steamed Flame Fish!"

"Do you have Bloodthirsty Chicken?"

"And another Roasted Bloodthirsty Chicken!"

Hearing this, the Attendant finally processed what was said.

He was still thinking, why haven't I heard of these things?

He looked at Gu Changan earnestly, somewhat panicked: "This! This!..."

Gu Changan interrupted him: "You don't have these?"

"Flame Fish, the kind that grows in magma its whole life and can swim freely in magma!"

"Bloodthirsty Chicken, raised by eating Bloodthirsty Fruit."

"Bloodthirsty Fruit needs to be watered with a large amount of fresh blood!"

"You don't have this either?"

"Forget it! You decide what to serve!"

"With a budget of 1000 Spirit Stones per dish, serve me 6 dishes!"

Then he waved his hand, acting impatient!

The Attendant was bluffed into a daze; he really hadn't heard of these two ingredients.

However, hearing the other party speak so logically, it seemed there was some truth to it!

He quickly put away his arrogant demeanor, bowed, and apologized profusely.

"Senior! I am ignorant!"

"I will go prepare it now!"

Saying this, he trotted away.

Gu Changan gave a disdainful smile: "Little guy, can't I handle you?"

Before long, the 6 dishes were served.

The Attendant from before stood respectfully to the side.

"Golden Snake Demon Chicken, roasted with special pine branches, crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside!"

"Steamed Cold Pool Silver-Scaled Carp, with precious Spirit Medicine added; the meat is tender!"

"Red Flame Tiger Bone Soup, the tiger bones inside were boiled for three days, with various Body Refining medicinal materials added!"

"Green Wood Spirit Venison, marinated with Spirit Honey and Spirit Medicine, naturally air-dried, with an excellent texture!"

"Mysterious Crystal Demon Bear Paw, processed through dozens of steps, the meat is extremely delicious!"

"Black Water Mysterious Snake Soup, simmered over low heat, with medicinal materials added to nourish the Divine Soul!"

Although Gu Changan was bluffing earlier, he was genuinely surprised now.

A major Cultivation World city, after thousands of years of development, must have reached the pinnacle of cuisine.

These things, whether in his previous life or this one, were things he had never even seen before.

Although he was very expectant inside, on the surface, he still acted as if it were nothing.

"Do you have wine?"

"Just something ordinary will do!~"

The Attendant wanted to see a change of guilty conscience on Gu Changan's face, but only saw calm composure.

"Could it be that this person is really a descendant of a Family?"

"Has he seen the world?"

The Attendant still wanted to test him, so he said uncertainly: "Drunken Immortal Brew? 10,000 Spirit Stones per pot!"

Gu Changan nodded after hearing this: "Bring a pot!"

The Attendant gasped, feeling that he had really misjudged him this time!

But he still stood in front of him, silent.

Gu Changan casually pulled out a Storage Pouch containing 100,000 Spirit Stones and slapped it on the table.

"How many Spirit Stones?"

"This table, plus a pot of Drunken Immortal Brew."

After saying this, without waiting for the Attendant to reply, he tore off a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.

Gu Changan’s eyes lit up; it had to be said that after thousands of years of accumulation, these dishes were truly delicious!

They had a unique flavor!

Then he picked up a piece of fish and began to wolf it down.

The Attendant on the side felt a bit disdainful looking at this way of eating.

However, he still picked up the Storage Pouch on the table and glanced at it.

His pupils shrank immediately; there were actually 100,000 Spirit Stones inside.

Then he bowed directly to Gu Changan: "Senior, please wait! The wine will be here immediately!"

"Do you need any more Spirit Wine that costs 100,000 per pot?"

Gu Changan was just eating to satisfy his cravings; why would he want to be ripped off?

He waved his hand at him directly: "Go quickly! I was just hungry after coming out of seclusion!"

"You've taken the Spirit Stones, why aren't you getting the wine quickly?"

The Attendant regretted it somewhat; he had looked down on people with biased eyes.

If he had known to answer seriously before, perhaps this Senior would have ordered tens of thousands of Spirit Stones worth of food!

He was constantly annoyed while bringing the wine!

Gu Changan didn't care about any of this; when the Drunken Immortal Brew was brought up, he tasted a cup, and his eyes lit up slightly.

This kind of wine contained a large amount of Spiritual Qi, and after entering his Dantian, it was directly absorbed by his Five Elements spirit ring.

The wine had a floral aroma, a fruity aroma, and a component that refreshed the mind.

Gu Changan felt that his Divine Soul had become clear.

He then scanned the Storage Pouch and saw that about 20,000 Spirit Stones were missing.

It seemed this table of dishes was not cheap; he had told him to serve dishes at 1,000 Spirit Stones each earlier.

He had actually served expensive ones; he must have wanted to see him make a fool of himself!

Gu Changan didn't point it out; these kinds of people who look down on others exist everywhere.
