After Gu Changqing had wandered around the city for a while, he found the tallest and most luxurious restaurant in the city.

Gu Changqing stood in front of the restaurant, looking at the nine-story building, which was spiral-shaped and became smaller as it went up. Various gorgeous ornaments and patterns decorated the surface of the restaurant.

The most conspicuous spot was occupied by a sign that read "Important Path to Top-Grade Spiritual Treasures," and the signboard bore the words "Heavenly Pride Pavilion."

Despite the lavish decorations, only two servants stood outside the door, yet no one dared to cause trouble.

After looking around, Gu Changqing stepped forward. The two attendants, seeing Gu Changqing in his splendid attire, bowed slightly, and one of them spoke:

"Young master, our restaurant only serves disciples from large-scale forces and above. Please tell us your identity so we can verify it."

Upon hearing what the attendant said, Gu Changting casually took out a token from his ring and handed it to the attendant.

The attendant who spoke respectfully accepted the token, took out a prop resembling a piece of white paper from his pocket, placed the white paper on the token, and Gu Changqing's affiliation and identity appeared on the white paper.

After the attendant examined the token, he respectfully returned it to Gu Changqing. He then summoned a waitress from the restaurant and addressed Gu Changqing:

"So it is His Highness the Holy Son of the Luoxia Sect. Please come in. This must be His Highness's first time here. This maid may show you the way."

After speaking, the two servants bowed and gestured for Gu Changqing to come in.

After Gu Changqing put the token back into his ring, he walked into Tianjiao Tower, and the maid followed him, explaining the layout of the restaurant.

"Your Highness, this Heavenly Pride Tower was jointly established by the ten major sects. The lower five floors are for medium-sized forces, while the upper four floors are only accessible to core disciples of large forces."

Listening to the maid's introduction, Gu Changqing looked around and found that the restaurant was almost full, and all the food was rich in spiritual energy and beneficial to the advancement of cultivation.

Most of them were disciples of powerful figures and their accompanying masters.

The maid walked to a small teleportation array in the center of the restaurant, next to which was an ordinary spiral staircase.

The maid smiled and said softly:

"Your Highness, this teleportation array can lead to any floor in the building, but only disciples of the ten major sects can use it. Others can only walk up the stairs on the side."

The maid waited until Gu Changqing stepped into the magic array before entering herself and asking:

"Which floor does Your Highness wish to go to?"

Although the disciples of the ten major sects would all go to the ninth floor, as a maid, she still needed their orders to act, because it wouldn't be good if she encountered a holy son who liked the lower floors.

Gu Changqing closed his eyes slightly and said calmly:

"Nine floors."

Upon hearing the reply, the maid responded softly and activated the magic array.

Because it was a small magic array and the distance was not far, the two arrived at the restaurant's magic array in an instant.

Gu Changqing opened his slightly closed eyes, looked around, and found that there were quite a few people on the ninth floor, and the central seats were completely full. Gu Changqing then walked to the window seat closest to him.

After Gu Changqing took his seat, the maid stood beside him for a moment. Seeing him sit down, she took out a square token from her bosom, handed it to him, and explained:

“Your Highness, this token records all the ingredients and elixirs supplied by this restaurant. If you have any other requests, you can also use this token to summon my daughter.”

After saying goodbye to Gu Changqing, the maid went down the steps.

Seeing the maid leave, Gu Changqing turned her head, subtly used her spiritual energy, and pushed open the half-closed window.

He lowered his head slightly, looking down from the highest point in the city at the crowds on the ground dressed in various sect costumes, or the slave-like followers who were as numerous as weeds.

He then turned his attention back to the token given to him by the maid, probed it with a wisp of his divine sense, and shook his head slightly in disappointment.

Most of the food in this token was already tasted back in the Luoxia Sect, so it was nothing new.

This token can only connect two people: the maid and the person in the kitchen.

He randomly picked a bottle of fifth-grade spirit wine that he thought looked good, and ordered a serving of food made from a demon beast with a cultivation level of about the Nascent Soul stage. He then sent a message to the kitchen. These two dishes cost only a few tens of thousands of spirit stones.

The kitchen staff quickly replied, "Please wait a moment, about half an incense stick's time, and we will send someone to deliver it."

The token also included his seat number: seat 62 on the ninth floor. After reading it, Gu Changqing placed the token on a corner of the table.

Before half an incense stick's time had passed, a maidservant arrived carrying a magnificent tray with the food that Gu Changqing had ordered.

The maid took small steps toward Gu Changqing's table, placed the food on the tray one by one, and then took out a set of wine utensils and placed them on the table.

After everything was finished, the maid held the tray in one hand and took out a ring with the other. Then, she bent down, smiled, and said softly:

"Esteemed guest, all your orders have been delivered. They are fifth-grade spirit wine and Wei Ling meat ribs made from the Wei Ling beast, a Divine Beast. Please transfer your spirit stones into this ring. The total is 46,000 spirit stones."

Gu Changqing took out the corresponding spirit stone from the ring, and a purple light emanated from Gu Changqing's fingertip before entering the ring in the maid's hand.
