Gu Changsheng and the others were in a private room on the fifth floor, directly above the entrance of the Lovebird Tower. Each private room had a balcony corridor, and the higher the floor, the better the view of Wanghai City. Originally, Gu Changsheng planned to take them to the ninth floor, but the rooms above the fifth floor were already full, and only this one was left on the fifth floor, so they had to settle for second best.
Could he, the dignified Saint Emperor Changsheng the Great of the Human Race, compete with some juniors for a private room? That would be too undignified, and he would be laughed to death if word got out.
Just as Gu Changsheng and the others were waiting for their dishes, Ye Hongyi and Gu Xiruo came to the corridor to admire the scenery of Wanghai City.
They were facing the North Sea, and in the distance, they could see the misty North Sea. At this time, the sun was about to set, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the surface of the North Sea, coupled with the reflection of the rising mist. The distant view of the North Sea was like looking at a sea of fire, which was particularly spectacular.
"So beautiful, Aunt Hongyi, what do you think?"
Gu Xiruo looked at the North Sea, which seemed to be on fire, and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Yes, if you could sit on a mountain with someone you like and watch such a scene, how romantic would that be? Xiruo, don't you think?"
Ye Hongyi looked at Gu Xiruo with a smile, but her eyes glanced at Lin Tian, who was beside Gu Xiruo.
Gu Xiruo's face turned red. How could she not know that Ye Hongyi was teasing her? But since her ancestor grandfather had already approved of Lin Tian, there was nothing to hide. She smiled generously and said, "Yes, Aunt Hongyi is right."
"Uh..."
Ye Hongyi originally just wanted to tease Gu Xiruo, but she didn't expect Gu Xiruo to admit it so generously, which caught her off guard.
However, she could also feel that the current Gu Xiruo was very different from the Gu Xiruo of the past.
In the past, Gu Xiruo followed behind Gu Tianjun, always poking her head out to look at others. If others looked at her, she would immediately shrink her head back, very shy.
But now, Gu Xiruo has not only grown up, but her personality is also more cheerful and confident than before, which is a good thing.
"Dear guests, sorry for the wait, the food you ordered is ready."
At this moment, several waiters from Lovebird Tower walked in with trays. Ye Hongyi and the others immediately returned to the inner room. She was also very curious about the peony fish that her master praised so much.
Soon, several waiters placed the dishes they ordered on the dining table. One waiter smiled and said, "Please enjoy your meal, if you need anything, just ring the bell."
Gu Changsheng ignored the waiter's words, but picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of the peony fish, which was about a foot long, and slowly put it into his mouth.
"Hmm?"
Gu Changsheng frowned. The waiter hadn't left yet. Seeing Gu Changsheng frowning, he quickly asked, "Sir, is there anything wrong?"
Gu Changsheng nodded and said, "The taste of this peony fish is not right."
The waiter's face changed, and he said anxiously, "Sir, you can't say that. Even the gatekeeper adult praises the peony fish of our Lovebird Tower. How could the taste be wrong?"
"If His Majesty says it's wrong, then the taste must be wrong."
At this time, the Heavenly Peng Ancient Emperor said.
"Tianpeng, don't be so impulsive!" Gu Changsheng said to the Heavenly Peng Ancient Emperor, and then said to the waiter, "Is your peony fish produced in the North Sea?"
"This..."
The waiters looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
Finally, one waiter said, "I dare not hide it from you, our Lovebird Tower's peony fish is indeed not produced in the North Sea. Now all the peony fish in Wanghai City are raised by special methods, because of the beast tide, almost all the peony fish in the North Sea have been eaten by sea beasts, and even if there are peony fish in the North Sea, no one dares to go fishing for peony fish at this time."
Gu Changsheng's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and he said, "That is a problem. Alright, you can go down first."
Gu Changsheng waved his hand, and the waiters breathed a sigh of relief. After they left the private room, they found that their backs were already wet with cold sweat.
"Brother Li, who is this person? We can't feel his cultivation aura, but just a few words can make us bear so much pressure. I think if I had left a little later, I would have wet my pants."
A younger waiter said to the waiter who had answered Gu Changsheng's question earlier.
Brother Li glared at him and said, "Have you forgotten the rules of our Lovebird Tower? You are not allowed to inquire about guests' affairs. I will pretend I didn't hear this time, and don't talk nonsense, understand?"
"Understood!"
The others' bodies shook, and the younger waiter broke out in cold sweat and quickly apologized to Brother Li. He had violated the rules of the Lovebird Tower just now. If the boss knew, he would have to pack his bags and leave. He had finally passed the interview and didn't want to lose his job.
In the private room, Ye Hongyi and the others also took turns tasting the peony fish.
After Ye Hongyi took a bite, her eyes lit up and she said, "Master, this peony fish is delicious, is there anything wrong?"
Bai Zhiyin also tasted a little and felt that the peony fish was delicious, tender, and worthy of being a delicacy.
"The taste is very good, there is nothing wrong with it." This was Bai Zhiyin's evaluation.
Gu Changsheng rolled his eyes at her when he heard this and said, "How much human food have you, a female Qilin, eaten to dare to evaluate?"
"You..." Bai Zhiyin was extremely angry. Can't you speak properly? I am the only white jade Qilin in the heavens and the world, but I am an auspicious holy beast, why do I become a "female Qilin" when I get to you?
However, she couldn't refute Gu Changsheng's words. She was indeed female, and she could live well without eating, so there was no need to eat human food.
"When you eat a peony fish produced in the North Sea, you will know what it means to be fragrant and unparalleled in the world," Gu Changsheng said.
"But... now that the beast tide is imminent, where can we find peony fish?" Gu Xiruo said.
"Simple, suppress the beast tide," Gu Changsheng said lightly.
"Master, are you going to take action yourself?"
Ye Hongyi's eyes shook, and the others also stared at Gu Changsheng. Bai Zhiyin's beautiful eyes flickered, and she couldn't help but think of the figure wearing a nine-dragon emperor robe, suppressing her, a fairy king, with the supreme realm.
Although she was quite resentful, it would be nice to see Gu Changsheng take action again!
Just as everyone was looking at Gu Changsheng expectantly, Gu Changsheng rolled his eyes at them and said, "What level of beast tide is worthy of my action? Hongyi, Xiruo, Tianpeng, and Lin Tian, that's right, the four of you, I will pass on a set of peerless sword formations."
"Peerless sword formation?" Everyone was puzzled.
"Their cultivation levels are all extraordinary, even if they are passed on a fairy formation, they can't compete with the sea beasts in the Saint Realm, let alone a beast king that is about to be born."
Bai Zhiyin frowned slightly, feeling that Gu Changsheng was a little unreliable.
"Hehe, I have my own way!" Gu Changsheng smiled slightly.
"Master, I have a question," Ye Hongyi said at this time.
"Say it!"
"It's not because you didn't eat authentic peony fish that you thought of solving the beast tide, right?" Ye Hongyi asked.
"Nonsense, I, as a teacher, have pity on all living beings, how could I be for my own appetite?" Gu Changsheng said seriously.
"Is that so?" Ye Hongyi was skeptical about this. You must know that before eating the peony fish, the master had never mentioned suppressing the beast tide. Instead, after learning that he could not eat authentic peony fish because of the beast tide, he came up with the idea of suppressing the beast tide.
If this is the case, she can't help but feel sad for those sea beasts. You can't grab peony fish with anyone, but you have to grab it with my foodie master, you deserve to be suppressed.
It is estimated that they would not believe that they were suppressed because of an inauthentic peony fish, right?
