Lin Feng Was Stunned, What New Nonsense Had These Leeks Cooked Up?!

Watching this "deeply moving" scene unfold before him, Lin Feng maintained his usual expression of detached indifference, as if his mind were wandering through the ages, untouched by joy or sorrow.

Deep down, however, he was already blooming with delight, even wanting to present Ghost Douluo with an "Employee of the Year" award on the spot!

Good heavens!

This level of awareness!

This professional competence!

He didn't even need to step in and manipulate anyone; the old leek had proactively arranged the new leek with perfect clarity, even helping him get into the right position to kneel!

Was this even a customer?

This was clearly the shop's most loyal, most sensible gold-medal salesman!

Outwardly, however, he merely raised his eyelids slowly, his eyes sweeping with indifference over Ghost Leopard Douluo, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling like chaff in the wind.

In a casual tone, he let out a barely audible syllable from his nose.

"Hmm."

A single word.

Understated.

Yet, Ghost Leopard Douluo felt as if his very soul had been thoroughly baptized and sublimated by that "Hmm" in that instant!

It was a god's forgiveness for a lost lamb! It was a senior's... recognition of an ant like himself!

An overwhelming surge of ecstasy and the thrill of surviving a catastrophe drowned out all his reason, like a mountain torrent or a tsunami!

"Thank you, Senior! Thank you, Senior, for your mercy!"

He was so agitated he became incoherent, actually kowtowing heavily toward Lin Feng on the spot, as if only this could vent the piety and gratitude overflowing from his heart.

After finishing, he turned abruptly toward Ghost Douluo beside him, his voice thick with tears.

"Brother Ghost! Thank you, Brother Ghost! You are my own brother, my second father!"

To this, Ghost Douluo didn't even spare him a glance.

On that pitch-black face, there was only the absolute piety one reserves for a deity.

He didn't speak, merely extending a withered hand to help Ghost Leopard Douluo up from the ground, his movements carrying the solemnity of a guide.

"Follow."

He transmitted his voice hoarsely.

"Watch closely, learn well. The rules here at Senior's place are far deeper than you can imagine."

"How much fortune you gain depends entirely on your own insight and piety."

With that, he led the still-ecstatic Ghost Leopard Douluo straight toward the table closest to the counter.

That was no ordinary table.

That was... the sacred seat, the one closest to Senior, the first to be bathed in Divine Grace!

This scene was clearly etched into the eyes of everyone behind them.

Spirit Kite Douluo, Tuoba Xi, Demon Bear Douluo... these Title Douluo who could summon wind and rain in the outside world were all stunned for a moment.

Why that table?

However, after a mere tenth of a second of confusion, a brilliant flash of inspiration struck like lightning, shattering all the fog in their minds!

They understood!

So that was it!

The seating was also a silent test!

The closer one was to Senior, the more... one could bathe in the Dao rhymes of Divine Grace!

And sitting at the same table represented unity and a single-minded heart—it was the best way to demonstrate one's piety to a deity!

Yesterday, they had each acted on their own, sitting at separate tables; it had seemed like they were just staying out of each other's way, but in reality... in Senior's eyes, it was a sign of insufficient unity and insufficient piety!

At this thought, a fine layer of cold sweat broke out on the backs of Spirit Kite Douluo and Tuoba Xi!

The way they looked at Ghost Douluo changed completely!

It was no longer the look one gave a colleague, but one filled with heartfelt admiration and awe!

As expected of Elder Ghost!

His meticulous mind and high level of insight had allowed him to penetrate yet another layer of sacred rules laid down by Senior in such a short time!

In a corner where no one noticed, the corner of Lin Feng's eye twitched violently.

He felt like his brain was about to overheat.

Watching this group suddenly display expressions of pilgrimage toward a broken wooden table, his mind was filled with confusion.

It's just a table closer to me, isn't it?

These looks, this awareness, this posture as if they wanted to kowtow to the table right then and there...

What on earth are you all imagining now!

And that's just where I usually eat my own meals!

Swish!

Just as Lin Feng was frantically venting in his mind, the Title Douluo who had been standing outside the shop like solemn statues suddenly moved.

Like arrows released from a bow, they instantly lunged toward the tables and chairs in front of the counter.

Tuoba Xi arrived first.

He sat down with the solemnity of a pilgrim.

His posture was rigid.

His eyes were filled with piety.

Spirit Kite Douluo followed closely behind.

As she took her seat, a flicker of imperceptible annoyance flashed through her phoenix eyes.

She seemed dissatisfied that her speed hadn't been enough to snatch the first spot.

Yet, her face still maintained a look of reverence for the "God Seat."

Demon Bear Douluo's burly frame also squeezed over, clumsy yet swift.

His honest face was currently full of a rare "cleverness."

It was as if he were terrified of missing out on this baptism of "Divine Grace."

Even Chrysanthemum Douluo's alluring figure drifted elegantly to the table.

He held up an orchid finger, a smug smile playing on his lips.

Once that group of elders, who were usually high and mighty, swarmed in like refugees who hadn't eaten in eight hundred years, the area outside the door instantly became completely empty.

Only Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan, who was sporting a pig-head, remained, standing there alone like three statues forgotten by the world.

The air was thick with an extreme sense of bewilderment: Who am I, where am I, and what did I just see?

"Nana... what are they doing..." Xie Yue's mouth twitched uncontrollably; he had no idea what these elders were up to now.

Hu Liena didn't answer.

Her charming fox eyes narrowed slightly, trying to analyze even a shred of logic from this chaotic scene.

Was this a new test set by the senior?

Or was there some mystery she couldn't comprehend about that table closest to the senior?

However, before she could figure it out.

Beside her, a crimson afterimage let out a howl and bolted forward like a wild dog off its leash!

It was Yan!

The thought process of this blockhead was incredibly unique and efficient at this moment.

He didn't understand, but he was deeply shocked!

He only knew one simple truth—if even the Title Douluo elders were fighting tooth and nail for it, it had to be something incredible!

If he couldn't grab first place, surely he could at least grab second?!

"Damn it!"

Hu Liena cursed under her breath, but her body moved faster than her brain!

With a flicker, she moved like the most elegant red fox, and right after Yan, she firmly secured an excellent spot at the table second closest to Lin Feng.

Following closely behind, a helpless-looking Xie Yue also rushed over, terrified that if he were a step too slow, he wouldn't even get a drop of soup.

The three of them, without understanding why but feeling completely justified, occupied what they perceived to be the equally significant "sacred secondary seats."

By now, Lin Feng was nearly numb, sweeping a blank gaze over the two tables.

At one table sat the Elder Council, sitting upright with solemn expressions as if attending a feast of the gods.

At the other table sat the Golden Generation, their faces full of confusion yet forcing expressions that said, "I understand."

The entire restaurant was filled with a bizarre, extreme silence, a mixture of fanaticism and absurdity.

Finally, Lin Feng slowly raised his hand and tapped lightly on the counter.

"Order."
