Obviously, the game was so fascinating that some customers who had been engrossed in watching Mr. Fang play the game found that there were no seats available for them now since the others had grabbed them already; they had to stand behind the others and watch them play.
Although Devil May Cry 3 was a game leaning toward warriors, it didn’t mean that cultivators couldn’t play it. In fact, some cultivators had begun playing it already.
Some cultivators such as Shui Xianyun and even Ning Bi were considering if they should practice close-range combat techniques as well to increase their combat strength.
Soon, not only warriors but quite a few cultivators had begun playing the game.
-In Jiuhua City-
Song Qingfeng, the Royal Princess, the Second Prince, and other warriors had all grabbed seats anxiously to get online.
“What’s the hurry?” Xiao Lengyu, Li Xueyi, and other disciples from Shengjing Academy or Xiyi Academy, who had come late today and thus missed the livestream, were very curious.
“You don’t understand! It’s a new game!”
At this moment, two figures came to the door and looked inside before pushing open the door and cautiously walking in.
“Daoist Brother Li, is this the place?” The person who spoke was a snow-white female Daoist wearing white clothes and a jade belt, If Fang Qi were here, he would recognize that she was Ling Wanyin, the direct eldest disciple of the Yuxu Faction since he had met her at the Taixi Faction that day.
The other was a purple-clothed young man carrying a treasure sword on his back; he was Li Longyuan from Xuanzhong Manor.
“Humph! It doesn’t look like a dangerous place like the dragon’s lake and tiger’s den!” Li Longyuan said in a cold voice, “It’s just an ordinary shop.”
He pushed open the door and walked in.
“!!??”
“How come it’s so huge inside?!” His eyeballs almost popped out.
Although this shop was located on an ordinary street in Jiuhua City, it was full of cultivators and warriors including quite a few Divine Ocean Realm and Emperor Warrior Realm masters.
The customers each held a cup with a picture of red beans and milk on it in their hands, and a big straw was stuck in each cup. A white-haired senior sipped from the straw in full force, looking extremely intoxicated. The two newcomers hadn’t seen this expression on anyone else before.
“Ahh!” Elder Fu exclaimed after finishing his drink, “My Lord, this red bean milk tea is so good!”
“…”
Before they knew it, they walked to the counter and saw an exquisite loli.
“How can I help you?”
“Ugh…”
Li Longyuan whispered, “Master told us to gather information; we can’t draw attention to us by acting haughty!”
Of course, after witnessing the ‘Orichi Divine Light’ technique that day, even though they were the eldest direct disciples of two out of the Three Saint Gates, they had to keep a low profile and keep their tails between their legs in this remote country of warriors.
“We’ll take… em… red bean milk tea!” Ling Wanyin pointed at a passerby who had just poured himself a cup of milk tea and said, “Just like that one!”
“Right! Right!” Li Longyuan agreed and nodded. “One cup for each of us.”
“12 crystals for two cups.”
“So expensive?” Ling Wanyin mumbled.
“Not so expensive,” Li Longyuan said, “The spiritual jade marrows that we use in our factions are precious drinks that one can’t even buy with crystals.”
“The so-called milk tea can only fool these warriors of Dajin,” he whispered.
Then, he went over and poured two cups of milk tea. Not caring to try it, he said, “Let’s go and see what these guys are doing in this shop!”
“Hey!” At this moment, a golden-robed young man walked over. “Is this red bean milk tea in your hands?!”
“Yeah… what then?”
“You two have good taste!” The golden-robed young man waved his folding fan and said graciously, “From your looks, this is your first-time visiting in this shop, right? At first glance, you picked the shop’s new item for the winter, the red bean milk tea, that many cultivators crave for! Good choice! Good taste!”
“Oh?” Li Longyuan asked curiously, “Can you explain what you mean? Isn’t it just an ordinary beverage?”
How come cultivators crave for it?
“You may not know it,” the golden-robed young man said expansively, “But this red bean milk tea is made from red beans that aren’t ordinary, and the milk tea is from precious spiritual tea and spiritual milk mixed in a certain proportion; it’s rich but not greasy and has a lingering fragrance…”
They gaped at the golden-robed young man. “It is really that good?”
Li Longyuan sipped it subconsciously.
“Wow!”
Instantly, his eyes widened.
“Daoist Brother Li?” While holding her cup of milk tea, Ling Wanyin stared at Li Longyuan curiously, “What? Is it really so good?”
Li Longyuan took a deep drink. “Gulp… Gulp… Gulp…”
Soon, they could only hear the sounds of sucking on air.
“Daoist Brother Li?!” Even more baffled, Ling Wanyin asked, “How is it compared to the spiritual jade marrows in your faction? It’s not something special for us, right?”
“It’s all gone already?!” Before she could finish her words, Li Longyuan opened the cap and poured the red beans and left overs into his mouth.
“Burp!” He belched.
Ling Wanyin were dumbfounded by the extreme pleasure showing on his face.
“Hey! You gulped it down! It is a waste of this precious beverage!” The golden-robed young man stomped his foot in frustration. “How can you drink the milk tea this way?”
“Then, how should we drink it?!” Ling Wanyin’s interest was piqued, wondering how delicious this drink was that it had made Li Longyuan lose his composure?
Xiao Yulv explained, “You must put the straw deep to the bottom of the cup and sip the mixture of the red bean and the milk tea; the fragrances of the red beans and the milk tea combining and colliding in your mouth will create the best taste for you!”
“I didn’t know there is so much technique required in drinking milk tea!” Ling Wanyin sipped the milk tea following his instructions.
“!!”
She almost screamed!
“…”
Three minutes later, they each held a small tray with spicy sticks, instant noodles, and Coke on it. While enjoying the snacks, they stood behind one computer to watch this person play the game.
“Daoist Brother Li, I’m surprised that the delicacies in this shop are so delicious!”
“I wonder how good is the game that Gongzi Xiao mentioned.”
“It’s a pity that the house is full, and we can’t experience them now.”
“Don’t worry. We can enjoy the snacks while we wait in line for our turn,” Ling Wanyin mumbled with her mouth full while she sipped her milk tea and stuffed a spicy stick into her mouth
“Wow! The spicy sticks are so delicious!”
…
Meanwhile, Ning Bi and the others who were lucky to grab seats had begun their journeys in Devil May Cry 3.
