A Day Out

After Richard ended the chat in the group, he led the group back to the vicinity of Capital.

"We're just planning to wander around a bit, would Daiyu like to come along?" Richard asked.

"Brother Li, several older sisters, and Xiao Yao came to play in my world. As the host, of course I have to accompany them."

"Besides, I was prepared to be away from home for a long time when I left, and I've already made all the arrangements. Now that things are done so quickly, there's no rush to go back," Lin Daiyu said with a smile.

"Let's go together then. Where do you want to go?" Richard asked the people behind him.

"Now that we're in the Capital City, why don't we go for a stroll Capital City?" Lin Daiyu suggested.

"The Capital City? Did you feel uncomfortable when you went to the Capital City before? Was your strength suppressed?" Richard asked.

"I didn't feel uncomfortable. As for my strength, my spells weren't very effective. I thought it was because I hadn't mastered them."

"Brother Li, are you saying that the Capital City will suppress my power?" Daiyu asked.

"To be precise, it's not the Capital City that will suppress your strength, but rather the human dragon energy that will suppress the strength of the Deva Path cultivators."

In particular, cultivators like Fairy Jinghuan, who rely on the seven emotions and six desires of the mortal world and the luck of humanity, will only be suppressed more severely.

You're actually doing well; it's just that using magic is a bit inconvenient, but you can still unleash at least 80% of your full strength.

Don't rely too much on magic. Once you become an immortal, most of the magic used by mortal cultivators will no longer be able to harm immortals of the same level.

Unless it's one of those Heavenly Fiend and Earthly Fiend supernatural powers that carry the laws of Deva Path.

"You still need to practice your martial arts. Immortals compete in supernatural powers, magical treasures, and martial arts," Richard explained before advising Lin Daiyu.

This kid is getting a little obsessed with all sorts of magical effects.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your guidance, Brother Dao." Daiyu nodded gently. Recently, she had indeed become somewhat obsessed with various magical arts, and had even neglected to practice the swordsmanship she had initially learned.

As for how she addressed Richard, it was because Richard noticed that the previous way of addressing her was strange, so he asked Daiyu to change it.

And so, the group headed towards the Capital City. Of course, they wouldn't walk there themselves; that would be too undignified.

He took out several horse-like Magic Beast from the Origin World, built several carriages, and let them choose how they wanted to ride.

Qinglin chose to share a carriage with him without hesitation.

Canglan wanted a separate carriage, Lan Xi Feng Yao wanted to ride in the same carriage.

Finally, Daiyu expressed her desire to share a carriage with Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao reluctantly agreed, even though she had actually wanted to share a carriage with her father as well.

Fine, I'll keep Daiyu company out of pity.

Richard then had several of the Magic Beast had become gods transform into human form to serve as grooms and guards.

He knew that bringing so many girls with him was indeed a bit too conspicuous.

But after all the hard work he's put into cultivating to this point, does he really expect to keep a low profile in this ordinary mortal world?

These Magic Beast are no longer the same group of subordinates he initially recruited.

His subordinates were initially only at the level of Low-level God, and only two of their best performers were granted the Mid-level God.

But later, after his Origin World was completed, he released the gods of the Douluo God Realm.

To ensure that the gods were self-aware and wouldn't harbor any ill intentions that would make things too ugly, he bestowed upon these Divine Beast the Mid-level God.

This allows them to maintain their suppressive power over the gods of the Douluo God Realm.

With Xiao Yao and the three Heavenly Emperor of War, Annihilation, and Overlord, even if he recruited some more Master of Rules from the Heavenly Gate, his direct forces could completely suppress these guys. He didn't even need to take action.

These new Divine Beast were something Richard casually retrieved from the Tara Plane while enriching his own Origin World.

At that time, although most of the God Level powerhouses in the Tara Plane had fled, there were still plenty of Saint Domain powerhouses and Saint Domain Magical Beast.

Richard casually grabbed a bunch and tossed them into his own Origin World.

At that time, the Origin World was too vast, so in order to enrich his Origin World, he captured quite a few Magic Beast to enter it.

Some of those who performed well and whom Richard took a liking to were also given Master-Servant Contract and granted Godhead.

Now, Richard, in order to save face, has brought out a few creatures from the Origin World to do the work.

Even if he wanted to show off and slap people in the face, he couldn't do it himself, could he? Did he expect him to personally deal with those brain-dead spoiled brats?

He can't afford to lose face like that.

The several Divine Beast, after transforming into human form, were tall and imposing, looking fierce and not to be trifled with.

Richard was very satisfied; this would at least deter the vast majority of the playboys.

The group boarded the carriage and slowly made their way towards the Capital City.

Qinglin raised his hand and flipped it over, producing a tea set. He then began brewing tea with practiced ease.

More than an hour later, several horse-drawn carriages swayed and rattled to the city gate and lined up to enter the city.

Daiyu was the hostess, but she wasn't really familiar with the Capital City. Even when she had visited the Capital City before, she had only gone to the Rongguo Mansion and had hardly ever gone out to explore. She couldn't very well take Richard and the others to the Rongguo Mansion, could she?

So when others looked at her and asked her to recommend places to go, she could only say with shame that she wasn't very familiar with them either.

Upon seeing this, Richard scanned the area with his divine sense and casually pointed in a direction. There was a rather lively restaurant over there, and since it was lunchtime, he might as well go and try some food.

Several carriages turned sharply and headed in the direction Richard had pointed.

As soon as the group entered the restaurant, they were surrounded by onlookers.

In those days, very few women would personally come to a restaurant to eat. Even women from wealthy families would order food to be delivered to their door.

Richard brought several women to dinner, which naturally attracted a crowd.

The once noisy and bustling restaurant instantly became much quieter.

Those who were more polite would steal a glance, then turn away and whisper to their friends at the table.

Some, less refined, just kept staring.

The group acted as if they didn't see anyone watching them.

Richard called over a waiter, arranged a private room, and ordered two tables of his signature dishes.

The restaurant only returned to its lively atmosphere after the group went upstairs.

The diners started discussing it again, mostly about Richard and his group.

Perhaps Richard overestimated the level of the playboys in Capital. Before the dishes were even served, several of them, emboldened by alcohol, came knocking on his door.

For these spoiled young masters, Richard and his entourage had very few guards, which clearly indicated that they were not from a wealthy or well-off family.

Several women who appeared in public like this were certainly not from wealthy or noble families.

He's probably just some country bumpkin.

It's okay to mess with someone like that; your family can easily handle it.

What else is there to say? Let's get him!

Let this country bumpkin know that Earth Boundary Capital City isn't an easy place to get by; you have to curry favor with the powerful.

The waiters following behind kept trying to persuade the group, but the spoiled brats ignored them and had their servants block them.

The young master of the Shi family had one foot on the door of the private room, intending to kick it open.

After all, although they were all spoiled brats, their families were still martial arts families, and they were forced to learn martial arts from a young age, so they had some basic skills.

But the door didn't budge, and the recoil actually sent him flying several steps away.

"Hey, I never knew the doors of Fragrant Tripod Tower were so sturdy," he muttered.

"You've been playing around with girls too much, your body's gotten weak," a crony mocked.

"What are you talking about? If you don't believe me, kick it yourself. If you can kick it open, tonight it's my treat, let's go to Flowers Fill the Tower!"

"You said it, right? No taking it back. We're all listening. Watch how I kick it away." His cronies didn't believe him.

He raised his foot to kick, but was bounced back several steps and almost fell flat on his backside.

Feeling humiliated, the man yelled that the people inside should get out.

At first, Richard was quite interested in watching the performance art of these spoiled brats.

It's been a long time since I've seen this kind of spoiled brat; it's a chance to reminisce about my old life.

There are far more disrespectful noble children in the Coiling Dragon World than these spoiled brats.

He'd encountered plenty of those before.

After Richard had seen enough, he signaled one of his guards to go out and throw the men out.

Don't let these people disturb his meal.

The guards were swift and decisive after leaving, simply throwing the men out. Whether these guys would break arms or legs from being thrown from the building was none of their concern.

If it weren't for the fact that their owner didn't intend to kill them, would these guys even want to live?

The restaurant quickly quieted down, even the diners downstairs became much quieter, afraid of disturbing the ruthless characters upstairs.

The restaurant owner came over personally, wanting the group to leave.

He meant well; those people were all famous painters in the Capital City, sons of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes.

This is not someone an outsider with no connections can afford to offend; it's best to leave now while it's still not too late.

It would be troublesome if we left too late.

Richard told him to just focus on serving the food; they weren't in a hurry to leave.

The shopkeeper was exasperated and wanted to say that they didn't want to do this business anymore.

Richard wasn't afraid, but they were. What if their restaurant was implicated?

But what business is it for a restaurant to turn away customers? They're not trying to dine Overlord.

Helpless, they could only instruct the kitchen to serve the food quickly so that the children could finish eating and leave as soon as possible.

Richard didn't care what they thought and enjoyed a comfortable meal.

He hadn't eaten mortal food in a long time.

Several sword spirits, including Xiao Yao, only took a small bite. They hadn't eaten this kind of food since they gained sentience, and they didn't find these ordinary dishes particularly delicious.

Only Daiyu could eat a little more with him.

After finishing our meal, we went to a teahouse and sat for a while, listening to a storyteller tell tales.

I spent the whole afternoon strolling around Capital City to pass the time.

Whether it was due to slow reaction or some other reason, the families of those spoiled brats didn't come to cause trouble.

Richard simply ignored it; it was better that there wasn't this classic scenario of the younger brother provoking the older brother.

Before sunset, the group left the city.

There wasn't much entertainment in ancient cities. Aside from eating and drinking, people would enjoy a play or music, or gamble, play games, and engage in activities unsuitable for children at night.

It's better to wander around and enjoy the scenery.

Not long after leaving the city, Richard and his companions boarded the Metal Lifeform.

Riding in a horse-drawn carriage is nowhere near as comfortable as Metal Lifeform; even if Metal Lifeform flies slower, you can still enjoy the scenery.
