Chapter 39
After walking for some time, Su Yang decided to take a break . He randomly chose a restaurant and walked in, his presence instantly attracting the gazes of everybody inside the building before even stepping inside .
"Y-Young Master, I am the owner of this store, how many will be visiting today?"
Su Yang was greeted by the store owner instead of the usual servants .
"I am alone," he replied as he stepped inside the place .
"I apologize in advance if the place is too crude for someone like the Young Master–"
"Spare me the sweet talk and just give me a table – any table will do . " Su Yang interrupted him with a casual glance, causing the store owner to quickly shut his mouth, his palms turning sweaty from nervousness .
"Young Master can sit wherever he wants…" said the store owner a moment later .
Su Yang nodded and picked an empty table by the corner . He sat down and looked through the menu that was covered in dried up sauces and dirty fingerprints, it was almost as though the store couldn't bother to change it out .
When the store owner noticed Su Yang looking very intensively at the dirty menu, his heart nearly jumped out of his throat from fright .
"Y-Young Master… I apologize about the dirty menu… our business is… well… rough…" said the store owner, feeling overwhelmed .
However, Su Yang remained silent . The dirty menu and the rough-looking place did not bother him one bit . Instead, it actually made him feel comfortable .
"I want one pot of your homemade tea and a plate of everything you have on the menu . "
The store owner looked at Su Yang with wide eyes filled with astonishment when he heard his order, almost as though he couldn't believe his ears . He actually wanted everything on the menu? There were at least 20 different dishes!
"R-Right away!"
The store owner didn't dare linger around and ran to the kitchen to begin commanding the cooks like a general . Very rarely would his restaurant receive cultivators as customers, let alone a disciple from the respectable Profound Blossom Sect . He couldn't afford to disappoint someone with such a profound presence no matter what, as he was afraid of the consequences .
Meanwhile, Su Yang took his time to organize his mind .
"How long has it been since I last sat in one of these out-of-shape wooden chairs? When was the last time I stepped foot inside such a rundown restaurant?" Su Yang recalled the memories when he was still a mere mortal in his previous life – more precisely, his youth .
When he was still a mortal, he would often times come to these kinds of restaurants with his family . However, ever since he left his family to become a cultivator, the number of times he would visit these sort of places decreased drastically, even stopping permanently once he became an Immortal .
