Whether It's Decadent or Not, Finish Indulging First
"Not bad."
After eating some, Lu Changzhi tasted it and nodded.
Luo Ling'er's eyes flickered, and she said:
"Does Master like it?"
"What?" Lu Changzhi asked with a smile as he looked at Luo Ling'er.
"If Master likes it, I'll make it for you in the future."
Mu Fan glanced over from the side:
"Xiao Ling'er, judging from your appearance, you've only just started learning. How come you've already mastered it?"
Luo Ling'er thought for a moment:
I think I've got it.
Upon hearing this, Mu Fan gently shook his head, sighing with emotion:
"That's probably what it means to be good at cooking. I wish I could be as good at cooking as you if I could cultivate myself."
"Really?" Lu Changzhi looked at Mu Fan.
"Cough cough."
Mu Fan quickly waved his hand:
"Just kidding, I'm not cut out for cultivation, just give up on me."
Lu Changzhi was not surprised by this reaction at all; his attention was instead focused on Xiao Ye.
Luo Ling'er's statement that she seemed to have mastered it reminded him of Xiao Ye.
I wonder if one day Xiao Ye will become like that, thinking that if he feels he can do it, then he can.
"Are you worried?"
Lu Changzhi asked Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye nodded and said:
"I've already reviewed all the information Heavenly Treasure Pavilion provided before I came here, and I think this matter will be very difficult."
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi smiled:
"Don't worry, I believe in you."
Mu Fan chimed in from the side:
"I also believe in your Xiao Clan."
Having said that, Xiao Ye didn't say anything more, nodded, and said:
"Master, Senior Brother, rest assured, I will do my best."
It was still early, so Lu Changzhi didn't rush to his lodgings. Instead, he wandered around the city with the others.
Although regions that are far apart may have some differences in customs, they still share many things in common.
For example, black market-like places also exist even in the area surrounding this Academy.
However, Lu Changzhi didn't seem to have much of an opinion on this.
After all, it wasn't our first time encountering each other; we had been there before in Heaven's Chosen City.
In contrast, what is more noteworthy is that in many areas nearby, you can see many similar-looking buildings, all with the same name, Myriad Laws Library, which are several stories high and have an overall style that is quite consistent with the interior of the Academy.
I took a few people inside to find out more.
It's somewhat like a library, where you can find a lot of information, including many stories, anecdotes, and some publicly available cultivation techniques, martial arts skills, medicine, and formations.
Although these things inside are not the core of the Myriad Laws Academy, Lu Changzhi made a rough estimate because the Myriad Laws Academy itself already had a high status and accumulated wealth.
Many of these items, if taken out and placed Land of the Four Directions, would be considered extremely valuable, even to forces like the Extreme Arms Holy Land and the Star Moon Holy Land.
This is a very obvious difference.
The same item, which would be considered precious in Land of the Four Directions, can be viewed freely here for a limited time by simply paying a Heavenly Treasure Points.
Lu Changzhi had relatively limited interest in these things.
Its contents are in the form of books, but for his current level of understanding, jade talismans are actually more convenient for obtaining information.
However, Xiao Ye seemed quite interested.
After browsing for a short while, Xiao Ye suggested that he stay at the Myriad Laws Library for some time.
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi and Mu Fan exchanged a glance, neither of them showing the slightest surprise.
After walking around for a while, the three of them hurried back to their lodgings.
The reputation of the Myriad Laws Academy is simply too great.
Now that the Law Contemplation Gathering approaching, the number of people around can be clearly felt to increase every now and then.
A short while later, following the information in the token, Lu Changzhi arrived in front of a building.
It wasn't the towering building one might imagine; rather, the overall structure was rather low-lying.
However, judging from the decorations and the attire and demeanor of the gatekeeper, the accommodations arranged by Sun Yi were of a very high standard.
"Gentlemen, please follow me."
A waiter led the way, and soon they arrived inside.
There was indeed a spacious mansion, with a group of maids and servants standing in front of the gate. Upon seeing Lu Changzhi arrive, they all bowed in unison.
Lu Changzhi roughly counted, and there were a total of sixteen people.
"The arrangements made by Pavilion Master Sun this time are truly of a high standard."
Compared to the past, which was always confined to a certain space, this place is now truly spacious and bright.
At this moment, the guide said again:
"This is just the accommodation for one of the group. There are several others. I'll take a few people there, and you can decide on the specific allocations yourselves."
Now, Lu Changzhi truly thought more highly of Sun Yi.
Outside, there are inns everywhere that are almost like beehives, and these days, even though each dwelling occupies a large area, they are still built on a one-person-one-room basis.
Beside him, Mu Fan was also deeply moved and exclaimed in admiration:
"You spoil him so much! Master is just too doting! Here we are, my mansion!"
Lu Changzhi's lips twitched at Mu Fan's exaggeration, but he ignored it.
Upon entering the residence, there is a backyard with all the necessary amenities. In the very center, in a place with an excellent view, there is a large pool containing a pale white liquid that is emitting a white mist.
Before he could ask, the maidservant introduced them:
"Young master, that's the bathing area. Bathing is a specialty of the Myriad Laws Academy. If this is your first time here, you can try it. I believe it will bring you a different experience."
"Any local specialties?"
Lu Changzhi was somewhat surprised.
At this moment, Mu Fan's voice transmission suddenly came:
"Master, have you made your tea yet?"
Lu Changzhi paused for a moment, then said, "You've only been here a short while, haven't you?"
Mu Fan didn't pay attention to that, but said:
"Master, this little pool is really nice, ah, so comfortable~"
Upon hearing Lu Changzhi couldn't help but shake his head.
When it comes to enjoying himself, Mu Fan's speed is comparable to a tactical retreat.
However, hearing Mu Fan say this, Lu Changzhi also became somewhat curious.
I'm trying it myself right now.
After entering the bath and placing the token, a moment later, power gathered in the bathwater, and there seemed to be varying degrees of movement at the bottom of the pool.
Not far away, a maid played the zither, while others sang and danced, and a servant lit incense, its fragrance wafting through the air.
The atmosphere made Lu Changzhi feel somewhat dazed.
For some reason, I had a vague feeling that I was a tyrannical ruler.
It was quite abrupt, but what followed was a thought deep within my heart.
This is so decadent!
However, this idea was quickly replaced by another thought.
Forget about being decadent or not, let's finish being decadent first.
Such a holistic experience—think less and enjoy more!
