Chapter 268 - The Consequence of Being Too Handsome
Chapter 268 The Consequence of Being Too Handsome
In the quaint Cloud Sun Town.
Dressed in white, Li Xuan walked quietly in the town with an imposing appearance. His pitch-black eyes scanned the surroundings and also the pedestrians passing by. In the end, he shook his head helplessly.
There was nothing he could do. Too many people were paying attention to him. It was normal for beautiful women to pay attention to him. After all, he was very handsome, so it was not a big deal for women to pay attention to him.
However, those men kept turning their heads to look at him, and even whispered together. This made people speechless.
However, these people’s strength was not bad. Low-Level Black Iron Rank warriors were very common, and it was almost rare to see ordinary people.
There were also many Mid-Level Black Iron Rank warriors, and he could even see warriors at the Black Iron Rank Peak.
As for warriors with higher battle strength, they were not seen for the time being. However, this was only a small town. If it was a big city, there would definitely be many strong warriors.
This result surprised Li Xuan. Previously, he had realized that there were more powerful warriors in this world. However, he did not expect that there would be so many of them. Black Iron Rank warriors were actually so common.
“I wonder what the high-end combat strength is like. If the high-end combat strength is too strong, I still have to pay attention. After all, if the master is dead, I won’t be able to come to this world.”
Li Xuan muttered to himself. While concealing his strength, he strode towards an inn, ready to learn more about this world.
This inn was a small two-story building. There were many guests sitting in the inn. While they were chatting, they were also listening to the sounds of musical instruments being played in the inn.
Li Xuan walked into the inn and found a corner by the window to sit down. He ordered some special delicacies of this world and ate silently while listening carefully.
When the surrounding customers saw Li Xuan, they could not help but take a few more glances at his beauty, especially those female customers.
Fortunately, the male customers stopped watching after a while and continued chatting.
They chatted a lot, from all over the world, about all sorts of interesting things. They even mentioned the Beast Tamer Sect. In short, they talked a lot. Li Xuan listened quietly. During this process, he had also gathered a lot of useful information, and he had a general understanding of the combat strength of this world.
In this world, the lowest requirement for a city lord was to be a High-Level Silver Rank. This was still a small city, and a large city’s requirement was usually the Silver Rank Peak.
As for a capital city like the Imperial City, it naturally had Gold Rank experts guarding it. A powerful sect like the Beast Tamer Sect had a total of four Gold Rank experts, and their battles were quite tyrannical.
Other than these, Li Xuan also learned that there were Demonic Beasts roaming in the deep mountains and forests, and there were even Gold Rank restricted areas. Those who were not strong enough to enter would die.
Such combat strength gave Li Xuan a sense of confidence. He began to plan his route of action.
First, he would go to the Dark Forest to get the Transcendence Fruit. Then, he would look for the little beauty of the Ice Snow Commerce Chamber to trade the Demonic Beasts’ corpses. Finally, he would go back to look for the master, the fatty.
Time would be delayed, but without a Summoned Beast, the master would definitely not dare to wander around. He would definitely wait for him in the village. Li Xuan did not mind and chose to drink tea quietly.
At this time, the waiter came up with a tray and placed a signature dish and a pot of wine on the table.
“Hmm? I didn’t order these.” Li Xuan looked at the waiter.
“Master, this is from our lady boss.”
The waiter explained obsequiously while pointing at the counter.
Li Xuan turned his head and happened to see a gorgeous old woman on the counter greeting him with a smile.
This woman was indeed quite good-looking. Her skin was fair and she exuded the temperament of a strong woman. Unfortunately, she was still inferior to his Qin
Yue.
“Thank you!”
Li Xuan saw the smile on the other party’s face and hesitated for two seconds before expressing his gratitude. However, there was a sense of distance in it, and it was obvious that he did not want to get involved in too much.
The lady boss seemed to have noticed something as well, so she did not force anything.
However, the surrounding customers revealed envious expressions. There were two bald men in the corner, talking in a low and sour voice.
“It’s good that you’re handsome. The lady boss thinks that she’s powerful and has always been cold and aloof. She looks down on others, but now she’s taking the initiative to give gifts to customers. What a difference in treatment.”
“Exactly. Liu Dafu is so rich that it’s useless to pursue the lady boss even if one did it for three years. Now that the lady boss is taking the initiative, if Liu Dafu finds out about this, he’ll probably vomit blood in anger.”
“Not to mention that Liu Dafu will vomit blood, even I want to vomit blood now. Who wouldn’t like such a beautiful lady boss? I’ve long had a crush on her…”
“But the lady boss has never looked at us in the eye. I thought that was her personality. Who would have thought that she would take the initiative? It’s really infuriating to compare people.”
“Yeah, isn’t that person just handsome? As for the Lady Boss taking the initiative, it’s really unreasonable.”
The two bald men in the corner muttered sourly and looked at Li Xuan enviously.
Although the surrounding people did not say anything, they also looked at Li Xuan enviously. Especially when they saw that Li Xuan did not care about the beautiful lady boss at all, everyone felt even more jealous.
“Forget it, I’m not eating anymore. The more I look at it, the angrier I get.”
The two baldies were getting more and more uncomfortable as they spoke, so they simply paid the bill and left.
However, the money they paid was a kind of blue currency. This made Li Xuan realize one thing, and that was that he did not have any money.
“Looks like I’ll have to use some extreme methods.”
Li Xuan held the fine wine and sipped it gently. The taste was not bad, and it was dozens of times better than those famous brands from his previous life. It could be considered a rare fine wine.
“I’ll buy a few jars later. Anyway, the space is big enough now, so I don’t have to worry about the space.”
Li Xuan muttered to himself and drank the mellow wine one cup after another.
At this moment, the door of the inn was pushed open.
A group of burly men with a bloody smell walked in from the outside, carrying large knives on their backs. Their eyes were extremely cold and their auras were unusually strong. Just walking in made the atmosphere in the room become oppressive.
The customers who were chatting saw this scene and their expressions changed slightly. They no longer dared to speak rashly, and some of the cowards even paid their bills and left.
When the lady boss saw these burly men enter, her expression was somewhat solemn. The main reason was that these people had a strong smell of blood on their bodies, and they were obviously not good people.
“We can finally have a good rest, brother. Come in quickly.”
A pleasant voice broke the oppressive aura. Soon, a woman carrying a long spear on her back quickly walked in from outside.
The woman was about twenty years old. She was full of heroic spirit and her aura had reached the Bronze Rank.
After she walked into the inn, she said as she turned her head to look at the position outside the door.
As she looked, a handsome man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes walked in from outside. His aura was even stronger, so strong that it had already reached Silver Rank.
His appearance caused the atmosphere in the inn to become stifling again. As people felt the man’s aura, they swallowed their saliva and whispered.
“He’s a Silver Rank powerhouse. Everyone, pay attention, don’t provoke such a powerhouse.”
“I know, but Silver Rank is really strong. His aura is actually so terrifying. It would be great if I could reach Silver Rank.”
“Yeah!”
Everyone discussed animatedly, looking enviously at the man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes.
