Yuzhou, Shangguan City.
After seven days of sightseeing, Di Jiu and his two companions finally arrived at the gate of Shangguan City.
Shangguan City is a main city-level city with a population of nearly one million.
After paying the entrance fee and obtaining the temporary pass to Shangguan City, Di Jiu and the other two slowly walked towards the pastry shop that Sikong Nan mentioned.
"arrive."
After walking through two busy streets and crossing a narrow alley, Di Jiu and his two companions appeared in front of an ordinary-looking shop.
"Leng's Pastry Shop?"
Looking at the empty pastry shop in front of him, Bing Xuanyu asked Sikong Nan doubtfully, "Little girl, are you sure this is the pastry shop you mentioned?"
"yes."
Sikong Nan nodded and called into the shop, "Madam, a customer is here!"
"Here I come."
A pleasant voice sounded, and a proprietress in a snow-white dress walked out from the inner hall.
The proprietress wore a veil, revealing only a pair of heart-warming eyes.
The proprietress looked the three of them up and down and said, "My three guests, what cakes would you like?"
"I heard that your snow cake is very famous, so please give us three servings to try first."
Di Jiu found a random table in the lobby and sat down, then spoke to the proprietress.
"Three snow cakes?"
Hearing what Di Jiu said, the proprietress frowned slightly, as if she had some concerns.
"Madam, go ahead, I know the price."
Sikong Nan took out a spirit crystal from the storage ring and placed it in the proprietress's hand, and said softly.
"good."
The proprietress nodded readily, took the spirit crystal, and walked towards the inner hall.
"Is this snow cake expensive?"
Seeing Sikong Nan giving the proprietress a spirit crystal, Di Jiu couldn't help but speak.
“It’s very expensive.”
Sikong Nan nodded and said, "The cakes in this shop are generally very expensive, especially this snow cake. Its price has reached a level that ordinary warriors can't even afford."
"One Spirit Crystal for one portion?!!"
Hearing the price said by Sikong Nan, even Di Jiu, who could eat spirit crystals as a meal, couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
This price is really outrageous for a piece of pastry.
"Snowflake cake is here."
An enticing aroma wafted out from the inner hall, and the proprietress walked out slowly from the inner hall, carrying three servings of snow cakes.
Miracle medicine? No wonder this snow cake is so expensive.
Smelling the tempting aroma of snow cake, Di Jiu and Bing Xuanyu looked at each other and suddenly realized.
It's really luxurious that some people use magical herbs to make pastries.
"My three guests, please enjoy your meal."
After serving three servings of snow cake and three servings of tea to the table, the proprietress bowed and returned to the inner hall.
“Ah!”
Bing Xuanyu couldn't wait to pick up a piece of snow cake and take a bite, and his eyes widened instantly.
Delicious, delicious, really delicious!!!
"Oh no, a strong man is coming!!!"
Just as Di Jiu and the other two were tasting snow cake in the cold pastry shop, a man in a bamboo hat who was walking towards the cold pastry shop trembled and rushed towards the pastry shop at a rapid speed.
When the man in the bamboo hat rushed to the pastry shop and saw Di Jiu and the other two tasting pastries at the dining table, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he didn't know these three people.
"I'm back!"
Pretending to be nonchalant, he walked into the lobby. The man in the bamboo hat turned around and glanced at where Di Jiu and the other two were, wondering, "Are there actually three guests here today?"
After saying this, he bowed in embarrassment and apologized, "My three guests, I'm sorry. Usually, not many people come here. If there is any inadequacy in our hospitality, please forgive me."
Looking at the familiar face of the man in the bamboo hat who lowered his head, the corners of Di Jiu's mouth curled up slightly.
He raised the snow cake in his hand and said, "It's okay. We are here to enjoy the cakes, not to be treated well. Even if you are not good enough in the hospitality, it will not affect our enjoyment of the cakes."
"Forehead......"
Emperor Jiu's words obviously stunned the man in the bamboo hat.
"Dad, you're back?"
Just when the man in the bamboo hat didn't know how to respond to Di Jiu's words, the proprietress came out from the inner hall.
"father?"
Hearing the proprietress's voice, Di Jiu and Sikong Nan couldn't help but express their confusion at the same time.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
The proprietress looked at Di Jiu and Sikong Nan in confusion, wondering why they were surprised at how she addressed the man in the bamboo hat.
Sikong Nan smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm sorry, I thought he was the boss at first, but I didn't expect he was your father."
The boss lady rolled her eyes speechlessly and said, "Who says there must be a boss if there is a boss lady? I'm not even eighteen years old yet."
As the proprietress spoke, she pulled off the veil on her face.
The veil fell, and a natural and pretty girl suddenly came into Sikong Nan's eyes.
“Leng’er!!!”
A breeze blew, and the man in the bamboo hat pulled the girl up and walked quickly into the inner hall.
"Let's go, we'll come back tomorrow."
Throwing two spirit crystals on the table, Di Jiu stood up and walked outside.
"Come back tomorrow?"
Hearing Di Jiu's words, Sikong Nan couldn't help but be stunned, and subconsciously said: "Young Master, are you interested in the boss lady?"
Boom!!!
Di Jiu knocked Sikong Nan's head hard and said unhappily, "I think you've been a little too idle lately. You've started to think about all sorts of random things."
“…”
Reaching out and rubbing the place where he was hit, Sikong Nan muttered and stopped talking.
Judging from the strength of the knock just now, the young master was indeed angry, and she didn't want to offend him at this time.
"Xiao Nan!"
After walking a distance away from the pastry shop, Di Jiu suddenly stopped and turned to look at Sikong Nan.
"ah?"
Sikong Nan, who was wondering when the young master would calm down, bumped head-on into Shangdi Jiu's chest, causing him to exclaim involuntarily.
"Young Master!"
Emperor Jiu stared at Sikong Nan intently, until Sikong Nan looked at the ground embarrassedly. Then Emperor Jiu said, "Quickly find someone to leak the news of Yao Li's appearance in Shangguan City to Yaowang Valley. Within three days, I want someone from Yaowang Valley to appear in Shangguan City."
"Yes, sir!"
Emperor Jiu's order made Sikong Nan stunned.
But soon, Sikong Nan clasped his hands together, bowed and accepted the order.
No matter how strange the young master's orders were, as long as he gave the order, she would obey it unconditionally.
"Yao Li?"
Bing Xuanyu looked back at the cold pastry shop and said in a deep voice, "That late Venerable Realm late stage man in the bamboo hat was Yao Li, right?"
"Um."
Emperor Jiu nodded.
He also didn't expect that he would meet Yao Li here, who had already started practicing towards becoming the Poison Master.
"Let's go and find an inn to rest first."
"Tomorrow, we'll continue to go to the cold pastry shop."
