The Gap Between Him and the Young Talents Opened in an Instant

Question: What's the most important thing about grilled skewers?

Is it delicious?

No, that's only the second most important thing; fragrance comes first!

Just like instant noodles, once you soak them, they seem almost poisonous. Anyone who's hungry will drool at the smell. Barbecue has a similar effect!

Master Li put a lot of effort into the aroma, filling the entire Wanchunting restaurant with a spicy fragrance.

However, grilled skewers are not common in Imperial Capital because they are considered unrefined and greasy.

To give an example...

So Wan Chunting should be considered a Seven Stars hotel, where everyone has to wear a tie and suit to enter, while the barbecue is just a roadside stall. Its presence here seems rather inexplicable.

What if the grilled skewers are the Hidden Dragon Ranking?

This is even weirder now, okay?!

After the servant announced his arrival, the doors opened one by one. Quite a few women were curious about this man Wife-Prospering Fighting Soul. Some even dressed up after hearing that he had come.

Most of the flowers that come to the Imperial Capital are not very old.

Time is like a knife, turning beauty into Hundred Flowers Ranking are merely pretty and famous, but their talent may not necessarily be so great as to defy the passage of time.

Furthermore, powerful figures on the Heavenly Ranking, such as the Sect Master Penglai Star Sect, and heroines among women, wouldn't bother attending the Hundred Flowers Festival.

"What a wonderful smell... Who is Young Hero Li?" Lan Tian surveyed the lobby.

"It looks like... they're grilling skewers over there?" Tu Yan raised an eyebrow slightly.

The women looked at each other, all seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.

The image of the Hidden Dragon Ranking seems to have been somewhat shattered.

"Isn't he the swordsman who wields the Heavenly Human Divine Sword...?"

"I saw his poems in Yun Province and thought he was a refined scholar, a gentleman of noble character."

"I always felt that he was a little different from what I imagined."

"Wan Chunting's food is a bit expensive, but it's not worth bringing your own food to grill, making it smell so strong."

Madam Shen covered her nose, her brows furrowing.

She came from a scholarly family and had been raised in a life of luxury and elegance, surrounded by learned scholars and no commoners. She had just burned incense before coming out.

This shows the importance placed on healthy skin.

To her utter surprise, Li Mo was nothing like his reputation; he was nowhere near as charming, dashing, or spirited as he appeared.

To put it bluntly, it seems a bit lowbrow.

Especially his skillful grilling movements, which made him look like a somewhat handsome street vendor, were a far cry from the image she had in mind.

As for being handsome...

A woman with a renowned reputation is always surrounded by admirers, but compared to a group of talented young men, Little Li appears so ordinary yet confident.

He specially organized the grand flower festival, and this is how he planned to treat them upon their first meeting?

What will the grand event ultimately look like?

A rural stage?

Many people share similar thoughts with Madam Shen.

"Why aren't they here yet?"

Li Mo finished grilling the skewers and looked up to find a group of 'ordinary' but 'somewhat attractive' women standing upstairs.

"?"

"Young Hero Li... is this delicious?"

A crisp sound rang out, accompanied by the sound of swallowing saliva.

The woman wore a sea silk robe, her hair was sky blue, like floating waves, and her eyes were lively.

Seemingly sensing the familiar aura emanating from Li Mo, she mustered the courage to approach.

You can try it.

After scanning her with his Heavenly Mandate Divine Eye, Li Mo smiled and handed her a few skewers.

"Hiss... It's so spicy!"

Lan Tian gasped for breath, a tear welling up from the spiciness.

But before the tears could fall to the ground, they turned into smooth pearls.

This scene reminded Li Mo of Zhen Bang...

Unlike Zhen Bang, Lan Tian is not Demon Race in human form, but rather someone like Murong Xiao... well, a half-demon.

At that very moment.

The peony flower room on the rooftop opened, and Luo Ji, using the alias Su Yao, came down and saw the flowers standing there, hesitant to approach.

She was taken aback and asked:

"Why are you all standing here?"

"Are you Su Yao, the tenth one, the owner of Wan Chunting?"

"Now the master is no longer like me."

Sensing the women's thoughts, Luo Ji felt a mischievous urge and whispered:

"The owner has changed long ago."

"Young Hero Li just bought Wan Chunting, so now I have to obey his orders, otherwise those high-ranking officials who are on good terms with him won't let us off the hook."

"??"

Upon hearing this, their gazes turned downwards to the figure below who had just turned off the barbecue grill.

Isn't that strange?

The art style seems to have changed all of a sudden.

With the added prestige of being a billionaire, the nature of the matter changed.

"How much would it cost to buy Wan Chunting?"

"There was no specific price; Young Master Li gave me a deposit slip and told me to fill it out myself."

"When I first saw him, I thought he was indeed handsome and dashing. Now it seems he is someone who hasn't forgotten his original aspirations."

"This smells really good. Could this be the kind of barbecue used in Barbecue Stratagem?"

"Indeed, he was like a firefly in the dark, so bright and outstanding even amidst the skewers of grilled meat."

It's a strange thing, really.

For an ordinary person eating at a roadside stall, it's considered low-class and unremarkable. But if a billionaire is eating at a roadside stall, it's called being down-to-earth and staying true to one's roots.

Even if his wealth wasn't earned through his own efforts, it would still shroud him in a mysterious charm.

Well, Li Mo has now quickly distanced himself from the other talented young people.

Which young talent is not only wealthy and powerful, but also so good at grilling skewers?

This is absolutely terrible.

Tu Yan slightly tightened her legs, unable to suppress a soft moan. This version of him seemed to suggest he was more than just a devoted admirer; perhaps he could even control her...

So in a short while, the lobby was full.

Little Li was completely confused, but didn't think much of it.

"Oh, by the way, ladies, you've come all this way to attend this grand event, so I'll have a thank-you gift for you."

"One Qingyan Pill has the effect of preserving youth..."

After scanning the Heavenly Mandate Divine Eye, he realized that investing in this was definitely the right move.

As he spoke, he took out his notebook and, based on his experience watching the Spring Festival Gala in his previous life, began to arrange the segments of the grand event. Huang Donglai and his brothers from his heart also arrived halfway through.

Huang Donglai mainly came to help, while the other brothers mainly used helping as an excuse.

As a result, the more the brothers helped, the more silent they became, because it seemed like they were just being used as tools for helping.

For example, Wu Chushu, unwilling to give up, asked Madam Shen if she wanted to have dinner together at Wanchunting. Guess what she said?

She said she wanted to eat the kebabs that Li Mo grilled himself!

Who could withstand this?

That junior sister from the Joyous Union Sect was even more outrageous, calling him "little brother" all the time, her voice making one's bones melt. She also said that her dance would be a completely different experience if she changed her clothes, but only Li Mo could see it in her room.

Li Mo said the grand event was open to the entire Imperial Capital, and even to the masses Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

So just make sure everyone can see it.

Later, the beauties started to curl up a bit, probably due to a herd mentality.

'They're all so aloof and distant; if I approach them, wouldn't I look inferior?'

'Everyone's grabbing it, if I manage to grab it, it makes me seem better than them.'

The brothers are the former.

Little Li the Gentleman is the latter.

However, Hidden Dragon's positioning was still excellent; he managed to avoid being touched by a single leaf and evade the allure of the beauties.

"We need to get things arranged quickly..."

"If it's like this today, what will it be like tomorrow?"

Li Mo was somewhat relieved that Ice Block hadn't come.

Otherwise... the jealousy of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and the Cloud-Stepping Tower is in danger!
