*** "AHHHH AHHHHHH!! I WANNA GO OUT! I WANNA GO OUUUUUUUT!" A loud, ear-piercing childish voice rang the entire Celestial Mansion of the Rou Celestial Family, the overlord of the entire universe that was below none! It almost broke the ground and the energy essence was dissipated entirely as if it had gone extinct! Inside the mansion, at the throne room where the ruler of the Celestial Rou Family sat, a fifteen-year-old boy was sitting on the throne, who was stomping his foot like a child who rebelled from his mother from not buying him a toy. This is Jin Rou. The current ruler of the entire universe. The youngest martial cultivator who reached the pinnacle of Cultivation! He was the genius of all the geniuses! He even surpassed his father, the former Celestial King, Fan Rou, who reached the pinnacle at the age of 24! But this Jin Rou actually reached the pinnacle at the age of 7! How terrifying was that? Is this kid still a being? No! They are Gods. But Jin Rou is the overlord of these Gods! Because of this, he was forced to take the throne by his father when he turned eight. Of course, he didn't like that fact and he even tried to run away! But since his father was mighty and almost guard him 24 hours a day, how could he escape so easily? So even forced, he accepted the throne and became the Celestial Prestige of the Rou Family. "Your... Your Majesty, p-p-please calm down..." a middle-aged man said in a stuttering voice, it was clear that he was afraid at this moment. Not because of Jin's strength. But because he was feeling that something will turn out bad if continues! "How can I calm down, Grenas? I never get out of this palace even I am the King of this realm! A King should go sightseeing even for a moment, right? Right?! But why. you old geezers always prohibit me from going out?!" Jin Rou angrily exclaimed. Time and time again, his father would not let him go out even he became the Celestial King. And what's more annoying him, was his father didn't want to tell him the reason why! "This... This.." Grenas, one of the Celestial Generals of Jin Rou, didn't know what to say and just laugh wryly. Your Majesty... It is not that we don't want you to experience the outside world, it is just that once you go outside, you wouldn't even notice that a chaos will about to come into being! - Grenas thought to himself. When Jin Rou was at the age of eight and was about to be crowned, he suddenly ran away at his maximum speed! That time, the Celestial Mansion was busy from the matters of the crowning of their son. And his father didn't notice it right away because he didn't expect that his son would have the guts to do it. Who knew he would actually do it?! What's more, Jin Rou exited the Celestial Mansion from the main gate! That gate had millions of people waiting for the coronation of the new King. When the crowd saw Jin Rou, it was as if the world stopped turning and their gaze was fixated to the man flying in the sky at full speed. Even though it was fast, they still caught a glimpse of the Young King of the Rou Family! Jin Rou was only eight at that time, yet all of the girls attended the coronation was immediately found their lower private part wet just a mere few seconds! The girls suddenly went into a massive uproar that almost broke the entire Rou Realm! The girls shouted like crazy and their bodies got hot from the inside. They were craving for that child! They didn't mind if it was only a child, they all wanted to bear the baby of that child! Disregarding the consequences, all of the girls, even the married women, gave chase to the running away Jin Rou! This startled Jin Rou, unknowingly if he had offended the women chasing him. Fortunately, his father appeared and bring him back right away. Though, it was really not a fortunate part for Jin Rou. "Hmph! I change my mind, I will not go out anymore, I will run away! Don't try to stop me!" saying that, Jin Rou suddenly became a ray of light that shot towards the sky. Seeing this scene dumbfounded Grenas, after seconds, he immediately regained his wits and said in a panic: "Your Majesty!" Grenas turned into light and shot into the sky where his Majesty went with cold sweats running on his face! The former Celestial King and his Queen were not in the Mansion at the current time because he was invited to be the prime guest of one of the Prime Clans under the Rou Family, the Shi Clan. Fan Rou reminded him of always guard Jin Rou time after time because he knew how big Jin Rou's desire to go out. Grenas had always thought that Jin Rou wouldn't do something like this because he always let him see an obedient child only sitting on his throne without any voice of complaints. In fact, the last retaliation of Jin Rou was when he was eight years old! That's why he was caught off guard this time. Suddenly, Grenas stopped his chase and began to look around, he was sweating and breathing heavily that like he was being suffocated. He got a very pale expression that was like a death sentence was about to storm his life. "Your Majesty.. He really ran... away.." Grenas felt his body tremble. He couldn't sense Jin Rou's presence anymore. It was like a thunder slapped right through his face. He knelt on air and closed his eyes. He was preparing for the punishment that was about to come. *** In the outskirt of the Shred Case Mortal World, a black and golden gate appeared out of thin air. This gate was extremely majestic as if even this gate would be worshipped. Suddenly, it fluctuated and a young man with a majestic aura with a very universe defying handsomeness got out of it! His eyes were like dazzling and dancing stars with a moonlight shade, his lips that were perfectly curved that any women can be conquered just by seeing him. His white short hair that like was perfectly trimmed in an utmost degree, like a white sea that was enough to suffocate the entire world! Apparently, this was Jin Rou who successfully escaped his realm and responsibilities. He had a very delighted smile and said in excitement: "FINALLY, I AM OUT!"
"My grand plan had succeeded! I waited
for so many years and now I am finally
able to see the world myself! Jin Rou
excitedly said while jumping up and down.
Actually, this "Grand Plan" of his was
just actually waiting for his parents to
be away for a moment so that he could
activate his Hundred Golden Gate. Once
Jin Rou activated this, his father would
immediately feel its presence and would
come into his path to stop him. Of course,
Jin Rou obediently sat his throne for
several years to caught them off guard.
And today, he finally reaped his harvest!
"Oh right, Mother told me that my face
could kill people. I better disguise myself
so that I would not harm anyone." saying
that, Jin Rou turned himself into a 20
years old looking guy with a bit over good
looks. He made his snow white hair into
a charcoal black average long hair. His
Looks could be said handsome, but not that
extraordinary or attractive at its best. ***
Jin Rou walked tens of miles away until
he reached a city that filled with people.
He could just teleport in that place with
just a split second, but since Jin Rou was
enjoying the outside world, he chose to
walk. This city was called Cygnus City,
the largest city and one of the successful
places built in Shred Case Mortal World.
With a beaming smile on his face, Jin Rou
was amazed by the scenery of this city. The
tall buildings, many people in robes talking
happily together and flying saucers! Flying
saucers are used by cultivators who were
incapable of flight. This flying saucer
actually appeared like an egg with a
blue colored at the middle and red at the
surrounding parts. This could be used by
fueling it by essence qi. After walking for
several minutes to sightsee, suddenly Jin
Rou's attention was caught by something
in his front. After which, his eyes suddenly
lit up. In his front was a two-story building
that was average looking at it is with a
plaque "Shack's Dine". Of course, this was
not what caught his attention, it was the
people eating inside that was transparent
through the glass. "They are holding a
banquet!" Jin Rou leaped in joy. In his life,
he had never yet to experience going into a
banquet and eat together with someone who
he can call a friend. But unfortunately, due
to lack of knowledge of the outside world,
this restaurant was actually recognized as
a banquet by Jin Rou. And so, he entered
the building. His eyes glow in excitement
more because it was more amazing
when you got inside. If the appearance
outside was average, inside was grand!
The surroundings were sparkling gold.
And it gives off a mild and majestic vibe!
"Esteemed customer, what table do you
prefer?" a waitress walked into him and
asked politely. Seeing Jin Rou in a decent
attire with over average looks, she deduced
that this boy came from a well-off family
at least. Seeing the waitress and her great
hospitality, Jin Rou smiled and answered
gleefully, "Any table will do!" Receiving
the young man's answer, the waitress was
startled by a bit but immediately gestured
the young man while smiling. Then, this
way please." Jin Rou followed the gesture
and sat on the chair. The waitress handed
over a two-page book and gave it to Jin
Rou. "What is this?" Confused, Jin Rou flips
the book and realized that the book was
filled with food names and with some digits
right after it. What a unique banquet!
Maybe these digits are the corresponding
essence qi that you will get? Then that's
great! I never yet experienced any qi other
than heavenly essence qi so this would be great! Even though he never attended a banquet, he knew that there is no book-like that waitresses give to its guest. And so he discovered that this 'banquet' was unique
and even deduced that the 'digits' was
the essence qi you will get upon eating
the specific dish. "Sir, have you already
picked your choice of a dish?" getting
impatient, the waitress asked with a bit
of rudeness. I have been waiting here
for almost twenty minutes yet you just
Looked at the menu and smile like it was
your first time seeing it. You were even
agitated! I know our restaurant is famous
for its delicacies. But hell! You should
order first rather than looking at the menu
Like it was an artifact! Humph! I guess you
are just a country bumpkin! Oblivious to
what was in the waitress' mind, Jin Rou
answered, "Yes. Please give me these with
the highest numbers!" "Highest numbers?"
The waitress' lips twitched a bit because
of the term used. However, she paid it no
heed and sighed in relief. She thought that
she would wait for an entire hour waiting
for this young man to choose. The waitress
immediately walked away to fulfill the
young man's order. After several minutes,
the waitress came back with a tray on her
hands. Filled with three dishes that were
the most expensive ones of their restaurant.
Upon seeing the dishes, Jin Rou's eyes
glowed immensely. He immediately dug in
and found the dish delicious. Even though
the dishes couldn't be compared to the ones
in his realm, nevertheless, he had enjoyed
the delicacies! In just twenty minutes, the
dishes prepared for him was eaten entirely.
Jin Rou was extremely satisfied by this
"banquet". He then stood up and said to the
waitress that was personally assisting
him, "Thank you for your hospitality! I'll
be taking my leave!" Jin Rou then began
to walk to the door. The waitress stared
at the young man with an indescribable
expression. "Taking your leave?" finally, the
waitress seemed to go regained her wits
and began to give chase to the young man.
Her expression got darkened as she glared.
Stopping his footsteps, Jin Rou smiled, "Ves.
I enjoyed the banquet. Oh, wait, who was
the host of the banquet? Please tell me
his name so that I would give him a favor."
"Banquet..?" the waitress' lips twitched
intensely. Banquet? Banquet your head!
This is a restaurant! Who the hell told
you that this is a banquet? Surely, you got
something loose in your head! Seeing the
innocent confused face of the latter, the
waitress almost spurted blood and faint on
the spot.
"Sir, this is not a banquet. This is a
restaurant." the waitress said while
holding her rage back. If not for the fact
that he was still a customer, she could
have smacked this young man in front of
him. "What? This is not a banquet?" This
stupefied Jin Rou. Then with a confused
look and asked, "What is a restaurant?"
"Puu!" the waitress nearly fainted on the
spot from hearing this. Are you serious?
You don't even know what restaurant is?
Boy, tell me. Did you live in a cave? Unable
to hold her rage anymore, the waitress
said, "Boy, this is a restaurant. A place
where people eat and pay! I don't know who
you are and what cave you popped out from.
But let me tell you this, don't even think
of leaving here unless you pay the 5,356
diamonds for your meal a while ago!" The
waitress was genuinely enraged. It was
just impossible for anyone to not even know
a restaurant at this day and age. Yet, a
fellow actually didn't know? Who are you
taking for a fool? "This.." Jin Rou doesn't
know what to say. He thought that this
was a banquet since there were a lot of
people. Who would have thought that this
was a restaurant and one needed to pay
for a meal? What should I do? I don't even
know what those diamonds are. How can
I pay? Tsk. This world is really harsh. I
never thought I need to pay for a meal! The
world is really unfair! "What's happening?"
"Probably a beggar who could not pay. Heh.
There are tons everywhere." "Not only a
beggar. It seemed like he thought that
this was a banquet." "Hahahahaha. What an
idiot! Hahahaha!" "The hell! Did he pop out
from a cave?" Afterward, upon hearing the
conversation of Jin Rou and the waitress,
waves of laughter surrounded the entire
building. Filled with disdain and mockery
towards the young man. "Uhm.. Where can
I get some diamonds here? So that I can
pay you." after a moment of thinking, Jin
Rou discarded the mockery of the crowd
and directly asked the raging waitress. He
doesn't know if this was a feasible idea
but he didn't have any other choice. He
could take an Immortal-grade armament
as a payment to the other party but since
the waitress said that it can be paid by
'diamonds', he immediately threw the
thought. This was a restaurant, specializing
in food, not armaments. "Where can you
get some diamonds.. You say? the waitress
suddenly raised her voice as if she was
the authority of this restaurant, "You
arrogant brat! Do you think you can pick
diamonds out there like cabbages being
sold in the market?! If that was the case
I wouldn't have worked my *** here! You
country bumpkin feigning ignorance, I shall
teach you a lesson!" This time, the waitress
exploded in anger. Even though she lost her
reasoning, this was still understandable.
As a waitress, it was her responsibility
to satisfy the customers and after that,
get the payment. If any case a customer
was to eat and run, the waitress currently
assisting the culprit would be held liable
and automatically deduct the lost pay into
the tab of the said waitress. Knowingly that
this young man owed them more than 5,000
diamonds, if this man was to get away, the
5,000 diamonds debt will be in her tab. Her
salary was only 700 diamonds per month.
How could she bear this kind of amount?
Knowing that the waitress was taking the
offense, Jin Rou suddenly gestured her to
calm down, "Miss, calm down! That was only
5,000 diamonds! You don't need to be so
agitated!" "Puuuu!" this time, the waitress
really spurted blood. Only 5,000 diamonds?
Only my ***! You can't even fork out a
single diamond and you said ONLY 5,000
diamonds?! Go to hell! Just as the waitress
will give the young man a good beating,
a voice suddenly rang her ears, "What's
going on here?" The gazes turned where
the voice came from, and upon sight was
a middle-aged man with a strong build
body. He was wearing a white robe with
an emblem on his right chest. The emblem
was two knives crossing each other with
a one star below. A one-star Master Chef!
Master Chef is one of the major jobs of
cultivators. According to the rankings of
Major Jobs, the Master Chefs are ranked
third! This kind of people were the best
people to cook for major events. At least,
Jin Rou knew this sort. The Rou Realm has
the headquarters of all the Major and
Minor Jobs under the rule of the Prime
Clan, Gou. Besides, the Rou Family has the
best Celestial Chef that the universe could
offer! In every job, there is a ranking of
one star to nine stars. Upon reaching the
nine stars meant that you are half-step
toward the Celestial Realm. However, this
half-step was a challenging and colossal
wall to pass. Once passed, one could be
entitled as Celestial. The pinnacle of the
jobs was nine star Celestial. The Celestial
Chef of the Rou Family was actually a
nine-star and the head of the Chef Guild
of the Rou Realm, the ruler of all the Chef
Guilds across the three major worlds and
nine minor worlds! "Reporting to Master
Chef Mo, this man had eaten here without
any money at all. I am currently the
assessor of this man and thus, I'm doing my
best to have him forked out the payment."
the waitress said in a very polite tone. One
can see that this middle-aged man was the
master of this restaurant. Frowning upon
hearing this, Master Chef Mo asked, "How
much does this young man have to pay?"
"It worthed 5,356 diamonds. He ordered
all the top dishes our restaurant could
offer and eat them swiftly," the waitress
answered. "5,356 diamonds?" Master Chef
Mo thought that it would be only at least
1,000 diamonds, he was thinking that the
young man could pay it via labor. However,
5,356 diamonds was different. Glaring at
the young man in front of him, he said with
an indifferent tone, "Young man, what you
owe us is a considerable amount even for
our restaurant. If you failed to pay us, I'm
afraid I cannot let you go. If you really
can't pay us, I'm afraid I need to report
this to the Chef Guild and decide your
punishment." Hearing this, Jin Rou panicked.
He wanted to adventure while maintaining
a very low profile to be away from the scans of his family. Who would have of his thought that right after he was free, he would instantly get into trouble? "This.." Jin Rou doesn't know what he should say and do. It was partially my fault that I would be in trouble right now. Maybe I should really try my luck and fork out the Immortal grade armament. Peng! Just as he was about to fork out the Immortal grade armament, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. His eyes lit up and faced the two raging mouths of the waitress and the Master Chef Mo. Jin Rou smiled and said gleefully, "What if I fork out a recipe as the payment?"
