I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God Chapter 1443: Perfect Life
Previously on I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God...
The alluring scent wafting from the Linglong Pavilion became increasingly potent, drawing in crowds of men and women, young and old, all captivated by an intense curiosity. They crowded around the entrance, yearning for a peek at the wonders within.
However, to their frustration, the grand doors remained steadfastly closed.
When the doors eventually did creak open, a wave of rich, mouth-watering aroma escaped. Yet, before any eager patron could step inside, they were met by guests who were exiting!
The shopkeeper then emerged, performing a respectful cupped-hand bow before addressing the assembled onlookers.
"Esteemed patrons."
"Our humble establishment will be temporarily suspending operations. We will not be accepting any new guests for the time being. We humbly request your understanding!"
With this brief announcement delivered, the shopkeeper swiftly retreated back indoors.
The doors slammed shut once more, leaving the throng of onlookers utterly bewildered!
"What in the world?"
"The Linglong Pavilion is turning away customers? Have they gone mad?""What kind of incredible backing must they possess to simply shut down on a whim?"
"I know, right! It's getting more and more difficult to earn a living these days. Even the hardest-working animals wouldn't dare take a rest, yet they casually declare they're closing? This has to be some kind of scheme, doesn't it?"
"It's definitely a ploy! Who knows what incredible delicacies and elixirs they're serving inside; the aroma alone makes one's mouth water uncontrollably. There's no way they're actually closing!"
"If you ask me, this is just a marketing stunt. They probably have something new to launch and are merely playing hard to get!"
"Precisely! Let's just wait right here and see what kind of trick they're attempting to pull!"
The crowd's agitation grew with every word spoken, their determination to witness the unfolding events solidifying.
Having inhaled the enticing fragrances, even the most skeptical individuals found their cravings overpowering, urging them to join the swelling multitude waiting at the entrance.
Passionate discussions spread through the gathering, their expressions firm and unwavering!
"I'm staying right here until I get to the bottom of this!"
"That's right, we'll wait until the very end!"
The street outside rapidly transformed into a cacophony of voices, a scene that rivaled the grandeur of the pavilion's opening day. Within the establishment, however, a profound tranquility reigned, with not a single patron lingering inside.
Separated merely by a door, it felt like two utterly distinct realities.
At this precise moment, the main hall of the Linglong Pavilion was populated by numerous young women adorned in simple yet elegant skirts.
In terms of both appearance and demeanor, they vastly outshone the legendary fairy maidens of mortal tales. Should even one of them appear on the street outside, it would undoubtedly trigger a widespread sensation.
These young women stood in a silent, orderly queue. Some gracefully balanced celadon trays, laden with precious medicinal pills, on their hands. Others carried ornate jade basins filled with immortal nectar intended for cleansing...
Regardless of their specific duties, all several hundred of them maintained solemn, disciplined expressions. With downcast eyes, they waited in quiet anticipation. The lengthy line extended up the ancient wooden staircase, reaching all the way to the imposing seventh floor.
This represented the most exclusive private suite within the Linglong Pavilion, a space expansive enough to comfortably house hundreds of individuals. Currently, its doors were securely fastened, and the beautiful attendant at the forefront of the line had been patiently waiting for a significant duration.
Beside her, the shopkeeper also stood with a deferential posture, refraining from uttering a single word.
It wasn't until a middle-aged man, seated in a wheelchair, made his appearance that the shopkeeper finally dared to bow and convey his report through voice transmission.
"Manager..."
"All preparations have been completed as per your directives. The entirety of the Linglong Pavilion has ceased all operations. We, your three thousand attendants, shall dedicate ourselves exclusively to the service of His Excellency's physical vessel. Various resources are actively being transferred from the treasury to ensure that every conceivable need of His Excellency will be met!"
Upon hearing this, the Manager offered a slight inclination of his head.
He casually extended a Huazi cigarette, causing the shopkeeper to experience a profound sense of reverence and awe.
Despite his inner excitement, the shopkeeper dared not make a sound. He discreetly secured the valuable cigarette and dutifully took his position behind the Manager.
The gazes of every individual within the Linglong Pavilion were intently focused on the entrance of the most opulent suite.
Inside, there resided only one person: Yi Feng. At this very moment, he was engrossed with an ancient jade artifact, having projected his consciousness into it to engage with a Life Simulator game. He had succumbed to a deep slumber upon the magnificent velvet couch...
After an indeterminate period that felt like an eternity of hazy darkness, Yi Feng's sight finally began to sharpen.
A stunningly lifelike and magnificent vista unfolded before his eyes, complete with lakes like polished mirrors, swirling clouds overhead, and verdant mountains embracing the scenery. Immortal cranes and mythical beasts glided through the heavens, while a gentle breeze caressed his face with an incredibly refreshing touch. The sun's warmth on his skin provided a profound sense of comfort. Yi Feng's eyes gradually widened in astonishment. He looked down, flexing and unflexing his hands, a wave of disbelief washing over him before he spoke his thoughts aloud. "Good heavens..." "Even the sensation in my hands feels so real, just like actual reality. This Life Simulator game from the Linglong Pavilion is truly remarkable!" Before Yi Feng could ponder this further, he noticed his reflection shimmering in the lake. It was an exact replica of his physical appearance in the real world, equally, remarkably handsome. Instantly, Yi Feng felt a surge of exhilaration. This game wasn't just realistic; it was incredibly considerate, preserving his handsome features. Not bad, not bad at all! As Yi Feng was about to revel further in his peerless good looks, a bevy of young, ethereal maidens descended from the sky. They landed gracefully around him, their voices tender and affectionate as they called out to him, their eyes alight with the adoration of devoted fans. "Eldest Senior Brother!" "Eldest Senior Brother, I've been searching high and low for you!" "Senior Brother, I've been encountering numerous challenges with my cultivation recently. I was wondering if you might have a moment to spare today to offer some guidance?" "My cultivation is progressing smoothly, but I feel the ambiance of my cave dwelling could be more refined. Would you be willing to visit and provide some detailed suggestions?" "Senior Brother, I have questions as well!" In a fleeting moment, he found himself encompassed by young, beautiful women. Each one exuded youthful radiance, their gazes filled with admiration and affection. Yi Feng had never experienced such popularity. The sudden influx of happiness left him momentarily bewildered. Fortunately, a game notification appeared in his mind, clarifying his character's background. [In this existence, you are the Eldest Senior Brother of the Yunding Heavenly Palace. Boasting transcendent talent and profound cultivation, you have achieved worldwide renown at the tender age of eighteen. Captivating the hearts of countless young women, you are the true Chosen One!] Upon absorbing this information, Yi Feng's face lit up with pure joy! The Chosen One? So his entry point was this immensely powerful! No wonder he was so revered! He had to admit, while the game possessed the direct, exaggerated style reminiscent of a rapidly leveling web game, it was undeniably thrilling. At the very least, it was a far cry from his actual life. Yi Feng had never dared to imagine such a perfect existence! Amidst his elation, a desire to test his newfound capabilities arose. With a mere flick of his foot, he ascended into the heavens, positioning himself above the sea of clouds! A casual gesture of his hand unleashed a power capable of stirring oceans, causing the clouds to churn with immense force! The group of admirers followed, gracefully riding clouds of their own, their sweet voices overflowing with ceasual praise! "Eldest Senior Brother's movement techniques are as masterful as ever." "Eldest Senior Brother is truly a sight to behold!" "Compared to our Senior Brother's magnificence, all other men are mere mortals." "Senior Brother, please bestow your wisdom upon me!" Just as the female disciples were brimming with excitement. A contingent of male cultivators, clad in pristine white robes, also arrived on clouds, their expressions filled with deep respect! "It is indeed Senior Brother cultivating!" "But of course! Aside from Eldest Senior Brother, who else in this world could possess such unparalleled grace?" "If I could attain even a tenth of Eldest Senior Brother's grace in this lifetime, I would die without regret!" "A tenth? Such ambition is commendable!" "Precisely! If I could possess even one ten-thousandth of Eldest Senior Brother's grace, I would willingly dedicate another two and a half millennia to arduous training!" ... Listening to the unending chorus of adulation echoing behind him, Yi Feng felt an indescribable sense of fulfillment. Standing with his hands clasped behind his back, venerated by multitudes, capable of reaching for the sun, moon, and stars with the slightest effort. The perfect life he had always envisioned was surely like this. This, this was the true essence of a cultivator! How vastly different it was from his own reality. Ever since his transmigration, he had endured relentless hardship. After years of toiling under the system's guidance, he had anticipated finally embarking on the path of cultivation. Yet, to his dismay, he had ultimately achieved nothing. He couldn't even master the art of abstaining from mortal food and was perpetually exhausted. Cultivation, indeed!The game, it was simply phenomenal. Finally, Yi Feng was able to experience the exhilarating thrill of being a heaven-chosen genius. It was truly a dream come true. Overwhelmed with emotion, he gradually let himself sink into this wonderful life...
