Chapter 760: Hilarious, So Hilarious! (5th Update)
It was not only Yuan Hong, the Young Palace Master of the Bodhi Palace had just walked into the tavern as well.
However.
Lin Fan and his companions were the first to enter, with the people from the Bodhi Palace following behind them, merely a step later.
"You really are something, who exactly is following whom? Clearly, we were the first to enter this tavern, yet you claim we followed you. Are you joking?" Chen Xue glared at Yuan Hong, becoming infuriated!
Even a clay figure retains a measure of anger.
Let alone a living person!
From the beginning, Yuan Hong had been targeting Lin Fan incessantly, though Lin Fan did not say much.
But in Chen Xue's heart, she was very angry.
If it wasn't for Chen Xue knowing that Lin Fan's strength was astonishing and that he didn't want to argue with Yuan Hong, Chen Xue would even think about striking out!
"Heh! Who knows if it wasn't you people tracking our Young Palace Master and then pretending to enter this tavern beforehand, pretending to arrive before us?" Yuan Hong snorted coldly, Chen Xue's Cultivation was the same as his, a Ninth Rank Holy Emperor, hence Yuan Hong's tone was somewhat better.
However.
The next second.
Yuan Hong's gaze toward Lin Fan was filled with endless loathing!
Simply because Lin Fan's Cultivation was too low, a mere Third Rank of the Ancient Saint Realm.
What makes someone with a mere Third Rank Ancient Saint Realm worthy of having two stunning beauties by his side?
If Lin Fan's Cultivation were higher, Yuan Hong might not target Lin Fan so much.
Low Cultivation is the original sin!
Trash should be categorized, what makes trash deserve to stay with two peerless beauties?
"Forget it, weren't you here to dine? Since it's about dining, let's not bother with him. Whatever you want to eat, it's on me," Lin Fan said with a faint smile, not sparing Yuan Hong another glance, as well as dismissing the Young Palace Master of the Bodhi Palace altogether.
"Yes, sister Chen Xue, don't be angry. We needn't stoop to his level with such people," Qin Muqing also stepped forward to persuade. Her Cultivation was lower than Chen Xue's, so she simply regarded Chen Xue as an older sister.
"All right," Chen Xue nodded.
Because she and Lin Fan had shared a bond of flesh, subconsciously, she regarded herself as Lin Fan's woman. Seeing Lin Fan being mocked and ridiculed, Chen Xue felt indignant in her heart!
However.
Seeing Lin Fan taking the initiative to speak and even inviting her to dine, Chen Xue cheered up immediately.
"Good! Then I'll have the most expensive dish!" Chen Xue glared at Lin Fan, seemingly blaming him for not retorting Yuan Hong!
"Sure! No matter the cost in Xuan Stones, as long as you order it, we'll have it," Lin Fan also nodded lightly.
In his hands, he had several hundred million Xuan Stones. Although he had used some, he still had over two hundred million left.
Even if Chen Xue could eat a lot, could she possibly consume over two hundred million Xuan Stones in one meal?
As for Yuan Hong, in Lin Fan's eyes, he was nothing more than a jumping clown, an ant!
If it were you, and you saw an ant jumping incessantly in front of you, would you bother with it?
The answer is obvious.
No.
"Heh! Order anything you like? You probably don't know, the chefs on this ship are even famously renowned throughout all of Tianqing Seas. It's quite normal for a dish to start at one hundred thousand Xuan Stones, and there are dishes costing a million Xuan Stones. Order anything you like, but can you afford the bill?" Yuan Hong sneered over and over.
"Enough, Yuan Hong. That's enough," the Young Palace Master of the Bodhi Palace frowned.
Meanwhile.
Lin Fan and the others were ready to take their seats.
"Dear guests, I apologize, we have many customers this evening, so we only have these last two tables left. Which one would you prefer?" the tavern waiter asked with a smile.
This waiter was different from Yuan Hong.
Having served on the ship for many years, he was very good at assessing people.
Just by Lin Fan's demeanor, and moreover, accompanied by two astonishing beauties, although his Cultivation was only a Third Rank Ancient Saint, he was definitely no ordinary person.
Possibly even a Saint Heir from some Sect!
"Let's take the one by the window," Lin Fan said indifferently.
"Alrighty!"
The waiter immediately invited Lin Fan and company to take their seats.
The followers of Bodhi Palace who arrived later could only sit at the table against the wall, which had no window and thus a less impressive view than Lin Fan's table.
"This won't do! Young Palace Master, I'll go talk to them, have them clear that table for us!" Yuan Hong said with some anger.
"Forget it, just sit here. It's just a meal and then we'll leave," the Young Palace Master of Bodhi Palace shook her head.
"Yes!"
Yuan Hong nodded resentfully.
A menu was also brought to Lin Fan's table by the waiter, and Lin Fan was getting ready to order.
Upon seeing the menu, Chen Xue and Qin Muqing couldn't help but be taken aback, nearly exclaiming in shock.
One serving of Crispy Spiritual Beast Meat Strips, five thousand Xuan Stones!
One Steamed Sovereign Fish, ten thousand Xuan Stones!
One serving of Spiritual Sauce Phoenix Bone (for two), twenty thousand Xuan Stones!
And for four people, it would be fifty thousand Xuan Stones!
One pot of Spiritual Ginseng Blood Phoenix Soup, one hundred thousand Xuan Stones!
...
Chen Xue and Qin Muqing were both stunned!
Just any main dish on the menu could easily cost tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of Xuan Stones, and what's more horrifying, some of the signature dishes were priced at a million Xuan Stones each!
"This... Lin Fan, this is too expensive, we didn't expect it to be this pricey, let's just forget it... Let's leave..." Chen Xue stuck out her tongue and shrank back her head.
Even a casual snack was several thousand Xuan Stones!
A main dish was tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of Xuan Stones.
Just a meal for three people, by randomly ordering, could easily cost two to three hundred thousand Xuan Stones, which is too much!
Chen Xue felt it was not worth it, and besides, Lin Fan had just said that he would treat, so Chen Xue was worried that Lin Fan wouldn't be able to come up with the Xuan Stones, which would be embarrassing.
Therefore.
Chen Xue was also considering Lin Fan's situation.
Unexpectedly.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Yuan Hong at the adjacent table couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Haha! Thought they were some big shots, scurried so fast just to snag a table by the window, and now look at them! Hahaha, can't afford it? That's hilarious."
"You!"
Both Chen Xue and Qin Muqing were furious, but they had no way to retort.
Indeed... they couldn't afford it...
They had Xuan Stones in their possession too, but only a few hundred thousand, and it would be unreasonable to spend half of their savings on a single meal, wouldn't it?
"No worries, you guys order, it's the same as before, order anything you want," Lin Fan said with a faint smile.
He had just calculated that even if he ordered one of every dish on the menu, it wouldn't amount to ten million Xuan Stones!
To Lin Fan, that truly wasn't much at all!
"Kid? Order anything you like? Hahaha! That's hilarious, please don't bite off more than you can chew, can you even afford any of the dishes here apart from those snacks worth a few thousand Xuan Stones?" Yuan Hong mocked with a loud laugh.
This time.
The Young Palace Master of Bodhi Palace didn't speak up to intervene but slightly frowned.
Because.
Even she thought Lin Fan was bragging, bluffing, showing off!
"Order anything you want?" Even she wouldn't dare make such a claim.
A meal costing hundreds of thousands of Xuan Stones, she could still afford, but only on rare occasions.
But if it were one or two million or even four or five million Xuan Stones... that was beyond her means, as Xuan Stones were not ordinary stones, could they just be picked up anywhere?
