Heaven Dou City
Looking at the boss lying on the recliner, Su Tianyu spoke calmly.
"Boss, I need to rent a horse-drawn carriage to Heaven Dou City. Please arrange it as quickly as possible, preferably so we can depart today."
Upon hearing that someone wanted to rent a carriage, Yao Jie, who was lying on the recliner, immediately opened his eyes, stood up with a big smile, and greeted Su Tianyu.
"Welcome to our shop! I'll arrange a carriage for you right away, so as not to delay your time. Please wait a moment while I prepare the carriage you requested."
Shop owner Yao Jie walked towards the sidewalk with a big smile and immediately called out.
"Zhu Wei, quickly bring a carriage. A customer has come to our shop to rent a carriage. Their destination is Heaven Dou City, so don't delay their journey."
Before long, a carriage slowly drove into the shop. The carriage was not particularly luxurious. A black horse, about two meters tall at the shoulder, was eating the bait prepared by the shop with its head down in front of the carriage, occasionally blowing out two puffs of hot white steam from its nostrils.
Su Tianyu looked at the carriage, but didn't complain too much. He boarded the carriage, casually told the driver to set off, and then said nothing more.
Upon hearing the passenger announce their departure, the coachman at the front of the carriage cracked the reins and whipped the horse, propelling the carriage slowly toward Heaven Dou City.
After ten days of rapid carriage travel, Su Tianyu arrived at Heaven Dou City, the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire. Looking at the crowds not far ahead, his eyes were filled with excitement.
A massive, imposing city came into Su Tianyu's view. The city walls were over a hundred meters high and an astonishing sixty meters thick, resembling a solid steel fortress.
At the city gate, several squads of well-equipped Heaven Dou soldiers were patrolling, exuding a murderous aura and sharply scrutinizing the civilians queuing to enter the city, appearing to be carrying out their duties according to the rules.
After queuing, Su Tianyu soon stepped into Heaven Dou City, the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Upon entering the city, an atmosphere of luxury immediately greets you. The streets are filled with Soul Master adorned with gold and silver and dressed in magnificent attire, as well as local commoners of Heaven Dou City. Their faces are filled with happy smiles, and they bow and greet friends and relatives they meet along the way, appearing approachable and polite.
Seeing this, Su Tianyu was utterly astonished. Were the local commoners of Heaven Dou City really this polite and well-mannered?
Su Tianyu didn't investigate the root of the problem. He found a hotel, paid for the room, went to his room, lay on the bed, opened his eyes, and pondered, secretly making plans in his mind.
"Next, we need to gather information within the city, ideally finding out when Dugu Bo left Heaven Dou City and when he returned. Once we've ascertained his movements, he can head to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in Heaven Dou City Sunset Forest to steal the immortal Immortal Herb."
The next day, Su Tianyu checked out of his room, walked out of the hotel, and strolled around the streets of Heaven Dou City.
Walking on the marble-paved road, Su Tianyu carefully looked around at both sides of the street. Many shops of different colors were dazzling, and the goods displayed in the shops were diverse. There were food and toys for sale, and there were even more shops that specialized in selling items for Soul Master, which made it impossible to look away at first glance.
"As expected of the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, the prosperity of Heaven Dou City is indeed unmatched by other cities. Even compared to Haagen-Dazs City in the Haagen Kingdom, whether in terms of city size or population, it is incomparable to any feudal kingdom."
Su Tianyu didn't linger. He casually asked a passerby for directions to the most luxurious restaurant in the Heaven Dou Empire. After thanking the passerby, Su Tianyu headed towards the location he had found.
After driving for two hours through the streets, Su Tianyu finally arrived at the restaurant mentioned by the passersby. He quickly looked ahead and saw a restaurant that was over a hundred meters tall, shining with a dazzling golden light.
The restaurant's exterior features a large amount of gold leaf elements, from the gold dome on the roof to the gold reliefs on the walls, and the gold decorative strips on the doors and windows. Every detail shines with luxurious brilliance, making it a sight to behold.
Looking at the magnificent restaurant in front of him, Su Tianyu was deeply surprised. He had to admit that the Soul Master of Heaven Dou City really knew how to enjoy life. Just this restaurant was decorated so luxuriously and grandly that it was clearly a place specifically for Soul Master.
Walking briskly forward, Su Tianyu arrived at the magnificent entrance of the restaurant. He looked up at the signboard, which read "Heaven Dou Royal Restaurant" in large characters.
"Hello, please show me your invitation."
A young woman dressed in a gorgeous gold jumpsuit approached Su Tianyu and greeted him with a smile.
Invitation? Do I need to show an invitation to enter this restaurant?
Su Tianyu looked at the waitress with a puzzled expression and asked subconsciously.
"Guest, you need a reservation or invitation to enter this restaurant. Of course, if you are Soul Master, you can enter directly, as long as you can prove that you are a Soul Master. I hope you can understand that this is the restaurant's rule."
The waitress explained to Su Tianyu with a smile.
After hearing the waitress's explanation, Su Tianyu finally understood that this restaurant required reservations. No wonder he had just been marveling at how luxurious and extravagant it was; it was clearly a place catering to Soul Master.
Su Tianyu shook his head with a wry smile, and his Soul Power surged forth. Three disguised Soul Ring —yellow, yellow, and purple—appeared beneath his feet. He looked calmly at the waiter in front of him.
When the waitress saw the three Soul Ring appear at Su Tianyu's feet, she was immediately shocked, her mouth agape in an "O" shape.
After a brief moment of surprise, the young woman spoke to Su Tianyu with a respectful expression.
"Guest, I didn't expect you to be a Soul Master of the Soul Elder. I had no good eye for talent. I'll open the restaurant doors for you right away."
After speaking, the waitress quickly ran to the restaurant entrance and opened the magnificent golden doors for Su Tianyu.
Stepping into the restaurant, Su Tianyu felt as if he had entered a golden palace. Magnificent crystal chandeliers hung from the high ceiling, reflecting a dreamlike and colorful light from every angle, which complemented the gilded decorations on the surrounding walls, making the entire space dazzling.
Su Tianyu was stunned by the luxurious decorations of the restaurant. He quickly looked around at the decorations, examining them from top to bottom, and occasionally gasped in amazement.
