Carefree Cave!

After leaving the Black-White Millstone Diagram Forbidden Ground, Zhou Hao bid farewell to the Slovenly True Person and arrived at the main gate of the Black-White Academy.

From afar, a carriage bathed in flames could be seen parked by the roadside, where Shan Yu, Relief from Calamity, and a handsome young man dressed in black finery and wearing a tall crown were waiting.

The three men strode up to greet Zhou Hao.

"Changsheng Zhenren, this is Beishan Baiwei, a direct descendant of the Beishan Clan. He was arranged by the Antan Marquis Manor to wait here for you to emerge from seclusion," Relief from Calamity introduced to Zhou Hao.

"Baiwei greets Immortal Changsheng." Beishan Baiwei bowed and said, "My father, Beishan Heihu, upon learning that Changsheng was serving in the An'Tan Branch of the Yinglong Guard, specially prepared a separate residence for Changsheng in the West City. Originally, he intended to present it at the welcoming banquet, but unfortunately, he was not fortunate enough to have the opportunity to see Changsheng Changsheng's demeanor. Therefore, my father specially instructed me to wait here in respect. Everything in the separate residence is ready, Changsheng need not trouble yourself."

"Changsheng, since you went into seclusion to attain enlightenment, Baiwei has been waiting for you at the Black-White Academy every day," Shan Yu transmitted from the side.

"Thank you for your trouble, Young Master Baiwei." Zhou Hao nodded slightly, not mentioning whether he would accept the other residence, but instead looked at Shan Yu and Jie E, "I heard that the Yinglong Guards' residences are all in the north of Anchan City? What, the An Tan branch can't arrange my residence, and we need the An Tan Marquis's mansion to step in?"

"How could that be! It's just that Master considered that Changsheng Zhenren's friend is in West City, West City is also the most prosperous area of Antan City, making it more convenient for Changsheng Zhenren to exercise his supervisory privileges in the future."

"If the real person is not pleased, the mansions in the Red Dragon Mountain Range and the North City can be prepared immediately."

Shan Yu and Relief from Calamity's expressions changed, and they quickly spoke up to explain.

"Forget it." Zhou Hao shook his head. "The Antan Marquis Manor meant well, Baiwei Master Baiwei has waited twenty days for this matter. If I refuse again, all his efforts will be in vain. Go back and tell Azure Dragon Immortal that this is a one-time exception. As long as I do my job well, I won't bother with anything else."

With that, Zhou Hao turned to look at Beishan Baiwei: "Baiwei, I will temporarily accept this villa and return it to your Marquis's residence after I leave Antan Commandery. As for your father, Beishan Heihu, and the Marquis's residence, please convey my gratitude."

"Very well, Changsheng, Immortal Changsheng." Beishan Baiwei said happily, "Please get into the carriage, Immortal, I will take you to the other residence now."

After Zhou Hao boarded the carriage, Beishan Baiwei, Shan Yu, and Relief from Calamity exchanged glances, each of them secretly alarmed.

In just a few words, he mentioned both the Yinglong Guard and the Antan Marquis Manor, and even made Beishan Baiwei, who was in charge of delivering the gifts, feel grateful that Zhou Hao had reluctantly accepted them.

"Someone with such status and strength could not possibly be simple." Beishan Baiwei sighed inwardly, and entered the carriage with Shan Yu and Relief from Calamity.

The carriage was about six zhang wide, and the interior was very spacious, with twelve seats, all covered with incredibly soft fur, making it extremely comfortable to sit on.

"This carriage is quite nice," Zhou Hao praised.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that this was a Heaven-rank puppet magic weapon. The flames enveloping the carriage, though showing no power when he entered the carriage, were actually an extremely powerful flame, even of a much higher rank than the ' Flame Soul Earth Fire ' he nurtured in his Purple Mansion.

"This carriage is called the Nine-Star Immortal Carriage. It was my father's vehicle. Not only is it extremely fast, far surpassing the speed of a Nascent Primordial Spirit Daoist, but it is also protected by the ' Nine-Star Heavenly Fire.' Even Nascent Primordial Spirit Daoist with weaker strength dare not touch it, or they will be burned to death," Beishan Baiwei said. "I borrowed it from my father specifically to pick up the Changsheng True Person. Riding in the carriage within the city allows me to appreciate the prosperity of the West City even more than flying in the air."

Zhou Hao nodded, looking out the window.

Night had fallen, and the streets, which were a hundred feet wide, were brightly lit on both sides. The shops frequented by cultivators were bustling with people, creating a lively atmosphere.

With the help of three local figures— Beishan Baiwei, Shan Yu, and Relief from Calamity — Zhou Hao gained a deeper understanding of Antan City.

Suddenly, the view outside the car window cleared up, revealing that the Nine-Star Immortal Carriage had arrived at an extremely vast area.

The area, at least ten thousand feet wide, had no buildings, only carriages and celestial palanquins.

Suddenly, a colossal and magnificent building appeared in Zhou Hao's sight from afar.

It was a huge building, hundreds of Baili long, shaped like a fox, lying on the ground with its mouth wide open, and magnificent carriages drove in one after another.

"This is the Carefree Cave?" Zhou Hao gazed at it from afar, his eyes filled with admiration.

"That's right." Beishan Baiwei also looked out the window. "The most luxurious places of entertainment in the entire Anchan City are Tianbao Mountain and Carefree Cave. Tianbao Mountain can be found everywhere in the Great Xia Dynasty, but Carefree Cave is unique to Anchan City. It was opened by three Celestial Fox Immortals."

"To be compared to Tianbao Mountain is indeed extraordinary," Zhou Hao said with a smile. "Now that we've come this far, let's go and see for ourselves. I haven't eaten or drunk anything for nearly twenty days, and I'm sorry to have troubled you all while you waited. Consider this my way of thanking you for your hospitality."

Although cultivators can abstain from grains simply by absorbing the primordial energy of heaven and earth, it is quite common for them to go into seclusion for hundreds or even thousands of years without eating.

However, when not in seclusion, enjoying delicacies and drinking fine wines is a great pleasure, and even immortals are not immune to this.

"Since the Immortal of Changsheng has such refined tastes, I will naturally make the arrangements." Beishan Baiwei patted his seat, and the Nine Stars Carriage turned around, heading straight for the entrance to the fox-shaped building.

As soon as the group jumped off the carriage, a tall, burly man with bull horns on his head ran over.

The burly man exuded a surging demonic aura, showing no restraint whatsoever; he was actually a great demon at the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

"Baiwei Master Baiwei, Relief from Calamity, Shan Yu, what brings the three of you here together?" The horned demon said warmly, "Please, please come in."

"Hmm." Beishan Baiwei Relief from Calamity, Shan Yu all nodded casually, clearly having been here often and were already used to it.

Zhou Hao glanced around and noticed dozens of attendants, like the Bull Horned Demon, waiting to greet guests at the entrance of the Carefree Cave.

Of course, most people who come to enjoy themselves are not greeted by waiters.

Even when attendants occasionally greet you, they are mostly Xiantian Lifeform, or at most, Purple Mansion Cultivator.

Only their group could command a powerful Myriad Phenomena to come out and greet them.

"And who is this young master?" the horned demon asked, looking at Zhou Hao.

He was very familiar with the three young masters, Beishan Baiwei Relief from Calamity Shan Yu.

One is the ' Beishan Heihu ', one of the most popular candidates to succeed the Marquis of Antan of the Beishan Clan. The other two are disciples of the Myriad Phenomena Realm most valued by the ' Azure Dragon Immortal ', the garrison commander of Yinglong Guard. They are all prominent figures among the younger generation in Antan City.

To be surrounded by these three and to wait for this man in blue to go first—what kind of status must he have?

"This is the Immortal Changsheng," Beishan Baiwei said directly. "Is this the first time the Changsheng has visited Carefree Cave? Please nod and lead the way."

"Yes, yes, this little demon greets the Immortal Changsheng." The horned demon felt a chill run down its spine and respectfully led the way, while secretly sending a telepathic message to the higher-ups of Carefree Cave.

The special envoy of the An'Tan Branch Yinglong Guard, the Changsheng Zhou Hao, has arrived.

It should be known that Carefree Cave is a den of iniquity and a place of ultimate pleasure, welcoming and sending off high-ranking figures from various tribes and sects within Antan Commandery.

Gathering information about every important person so that they won't be mistreated when they arrive is a fundamental survival instinct.

Led by the horned demon, the four followed the magnificent and wide corridor and soon arrived at a huge palace.

On the left side of the hall stood a row of beautiful women who were either demons or cultivators, while on the right side stood a row of men who were either demons or cultivators.

Facing the entrance to the corridor stood a woman in pink with downy ears and a fluffy fox tail, smiling radiantly.

"Welcome, Changsheng, Young Master Beishan, Relief from Calamity Jie'e, and Shan Yu." Both rows of men and women bowed respectfully, and the woman in pink also bowed to the four of them.

"Get up." Zhou Hao nodded gently.

With his level of Daoist cultivation, he would naturally not be intimidated by the respectful welcome from such a few demons and cultivators.

But it must be said...

It truly lives up to its reputation as the Carefree Cave created by three Celestial Fox Immortals.

They truly mastered the art of flattery, making every guest feel the most respected.

"Is that Zi Yi?"

"Isn't Zi Yi supposed to be the one entertaining the noble young masters from various tribes and sects at the ' Sea Hero Hall '? Why is she being brought out to greet them?"

"I've met those three before; they're among the most outstanding young masters of Antan City. Who is that Changsheng?"

Inside the hall, many guests who had come to enjoy themselves were sitting.

Seeing the impressive setup at the entrance, everyone knew that a very important person had arrived.

Normally, when a young master of Beishan Baiwei's status arrives at Carefree Cave, he is greeted by rows of the Purple Mansion demons and cultivators from the Purple Mansion.

Sometimes you can see them more than ten times in one night, which isn't uncommon.

But this was truly the first time I'd ever seen someone come out to greet me like that.

Even Beishan Baiwei, Relief from Calamity, Shan Yu, who were standing next to Zhou Hao, were taken aback when they saw the woman in pink.

"This is Zi Yi, a great demon at the Perfected Realm of Myriad Phenomena, and a disciple of the three Heavenly Fox Immortals. She usually entertains us in the ' Sea Hero Hall,' but today she is clearly welcoming us at the entrance out of respect for True Changsheng," Beishan Baiwei transmitted to Zhou Hao.

With the support of the Anchan Beishan Clan, Carefree Cave naturally also received a share of the profits.

He naturally had to subtly mention this obvious act of kindness so that Zhou Hao would remember it.

The two rows of male and female cultivators and great demons who had come to greet the four of them quietly withdrew after performing their greetings.

The woman in pink walked towards Zhou Hao.

Her hips swayed, and her fox tail swayed slightly, as if constantly stirring people's hearts. All the guests in the hall who were watching this scene stared in disbelief.

Many of the Purple Mansion Cultivator who had been brought here by their elders to broaden their horizons blushed deeply, some even drooling.

"This humble servant Ziyi, and I greet the Changsheng." The woman in pink approached Zhou Hao and bowed respectfully. "My master knew that Changsheng Immortal Changsheng had arrived and specially sent me to invite him. Please, Immortal, come to the ' Immortal Hall ' for a meeting."

What!?

Was it a special invitation from Jade Algae Immortal, one of the three Celestial Fox Immortals of Carefree Cave, to go to the legendary Immortal Hall?

The expressions of the guests at the Myriad Phenomena Realm in the hall changed, and some of the young female cultivators looked at Zhou Hao with shining eyes.

' The Immortal Hall '!

That's the legendary most luxurious place in Carefree Cave. Only immortals or high-ranking officials from top-tier forces can go Immortal Hall.

Almost every one of them was a powerful figure who could influence the entire Antan Commandery with just a few steps.

Those beings who come to Carefree Cave fly directly into the special corridor from the air, where they are greeted and received by Primordial Spirit Daoist. Normally, they would never have the chance to see such beings.

I never expected to have the chance to meet one here today.

If one could curry favor with such an important figure, wouldn't one's career skyrocket?

At this moment, countless people had this thought in their minds.

Beishan Baiwei, Relief from Calamity, Shan Yu, who were standing nearby, also lit up when they heard the woman in pink mention the Immortal Hall.

Even they couldn't get into a place like the ' Immortal Hall '.

These were places of pleasure and relaxation that only people of their fathers' or master's status could visit.

But if you go with your elders, it's never as carefree as going out to have fun on your own.

"We're in luck this time." The three exchanged glances, all feeling a surge of excitement.

Now all we have to do is wait for Zhou Hao to nod.

Everyone assumed Zhou Hao would agree and then follow the woman in pink to the legendary ' Immortal Hall '.

But he shook his head.

"No need. Let's go to the Sea Hero Hall, which Baiwei used to frequent. Arrange a banquet of a hundred delicacies for us." Zhou Hao said directly, "Jade Algae Immortal wants to see me, have her come to the Sea Hero Hall."

joke.

I personally planned to treat everyone to this meal.

Immortal Hall?

I'm not going!

Chapter 1. My little monster at home is on vacation and running around freely. I'm just about to take her out to feed her.

Chapter Two is uncertain when.

I'll try my best today, at least three chapters, to catch up on the progress.

Starting from the 26th, there will be double monthly passes again. If you have any passes, you might want to save them.

I bow in Suifeng!
