The Western Heaven Battle Hall is the largest power on the Western Heaven Continent. Although its rule over the continent is incomplete due to the presence of the Luoshen Clan, no one can deny that the Western Heaven Battle Hall is the true ruler of the Western Heaven Continent.
Zhantian City is the capital of the Western Heaven Battle Hall and the core of power on the Western Heaven Continent.
Zhantian City is extremely prosperous and thriving in martial arts, boasting numerous businesses and martial arts schools, surpassing even the Luoshen Clan's Luo City by a significant margin.
Among these businesses, the most popular aren't those forging weapons and armor or operating arenas, but rather restaurants offering fine wine and food.
After discovering treasures in the ruins or completing quests and receiving bounties, many adventurers in Zhantian City first head to a restaurant.
The finest restaurant in all of Zhantian City is, of course, the "Hero's House," located in the central square.
Unlike other luxurious restaurants, the Hero's House never refuses guests.
Even if you dress like a shabby waiter, no scornful waiter will chase you out.
You can still occupy a table even if you don't order a single dish, but only if you can hold onto it when other guests arrive.
If you can't, you'll be thrown out like a dog, humiliating.
The Hero Building is divided into several floors, and only those of high status can ascend to the upper levels.
And this status isn't based on family influence or social status.
To rise to the top of the Hero Building, there's only one requirement: strength.
The entrances to each floor of the Hero Building are restricted, and only those with the required strength can pass.
Those below the Three Heavens Realm can only dine on the first floor, but generally, only those at the Spiritual Soul Realm dare to dine there.
Those at the Three Heavens Realm can enter the second floor, but the private rooms there are reserved for those at the Heavenly Transcendence Realm.
The third floor is for First to Sixth Rank Supremes, and the fourth floor is for Seventh to Ninth Rank Supremes.
The fifth floor is accessible only to the Earth Supreme.
As for the sixth floor, it's a place only renowned experts are qualified to visit.
Those who can dine on the sixth floor are all prominent figures in the Western Heaven War Realm.
However, these prominent figures rarely dine outside, so the sixth floor is mostly empty.
The Hero Building holds a special place in War Heaven City, founded by the Western Heaven War Emperor's favored son.
It was named the Hero Building in the hope of hosting heroes from all over the world.
When the Hero Building was completed, the Western Heaven War Emperor personally stepped in to establish protective barriers and a platform in the center of each floor, providing a place for guests to resolve conflicts.
Many outside of War Heaven have become famous in the Hero Building's arena.
Today, the Hero Building is still bustling with activity, with heroes from all over gathering to loudly recount their adventures.
The first floor of the Hero Building was populated by those of relatively low strength and realm. In the throngs of powerful warriors in Zhantian City, they were considered the lowest echelon of the elite. Their adventure stories weren't shared within their own circles.
However, the stories a few people had shared in recent days had captivated everyone.
Today, those same people returned to the first floor of the Hero Building to share their experiences.
"You don't know! Dongyu City, home to the Luoshen Clan, is known for its open-mindedness. The women there dress so sultry, it's enough to make you drool!" said a pockmarked man in the Tongtian Realm.
"Yes! Yes! Beautiful women with half their breasts exposed are everywhere, and there are also plenty of women showing their entire thighs or even half their buttocks. If you can't resist touching their breasts or buttocks, they won't get angry. Instead, they'll stare at you with eyes that can captivate you. It's truly unbearable," said the pockmarked man's companion with a lewd smile.
"You're lying! If there's such a great place, why haven't I heard of it before?" someone at another table retorted in disbelief.
"We hadn't even imagined such a place existed before we went with our leader. Once we entered Dongyu City, we were all stunned! Later, when our leader went to the Dongyu City Mercenary Guild and gave us money to eat, we couldn't resist and found a beautiful, scantily clad mature woman and asked if we could have sex. We paid. Guess what?" another of Ma Zi's companions asked smugly.
"The woman agreed?" someone at another table asked expectantly.
"You probably won't believe this, but the woman actually reached out and touched Ma Zi and my crotch. Then she said, 'Your dicks are pretty big, and I'm free today, so I'll let you have sex for free!' Then she dragged us into a secluded alley, propped herself up against the wall, and stuck her butt out in front of us. Tsk tsk... We've never had sex with such a slutty woman before. We were absolutely blown away!" another of Ma Zi's friends remarked.
"Such a good deal, you're just bragging!" someone said in disbelief.
"If you don't believe me, go to Dongyu City and see for yourself. I swear, once you enter the city, you'll know whether what I said is true or not. Honestly, we're not lying. If you don't believe me, just ask our leader; you all know his character. The reason we were able to secure the deal in Dongyu City this time was because we fucked that beautiful mature woman. This might shock you, but that beautiful mature woman we fucked is actually the wife of the president of the Dongyu City Mercenary Guild. If she hadn't seen us and spoken in our favor, our leader wouldn't have been able to secure this deal," Ma Zi shouted.
"Listen to your bullshit! Besides whores, what beautiful woman would wear clothes that expose her breasts, legs, and buttocks on the street? You..." The person who had been loudly retorting suddenly stopped talking and stared blankly at the door.
Ma Zi noticed that the person who was retorting had suddenly stopped talking, and the others staring at the door had also suddenly quieted down, and then followed his gaze towards the door.
A man and woman appeared at the entrance of the restaurant. The man was incredibly handsome, the woman possessed a breathtaking beauty.
However, what silenced the crowd wasn't the woman's stunning beauty, but her attire.
This stunningly beautiful woman's attire was even more extravagant than the women of Dongyu City that Ma Zi and the others had described.
She wore a black bodysuit, but it was surprisingly translucent.
Through the fabric, her fair skin was clearly visible.
However, the bodysuit provided some concealment, as it was intricately embroidered with patterns that largely obscured her breasts, crotch, and voluptuous hips.
However, this concealment didn't diminish her allure; instead, it made her even more alluring.
This peerless beauty, captivating everyone, was Luo Li, and the man beside her was, naturally, Mu Chen.
The two of them saw the crowd's surprised expressions and the stares they were giving Luo Li, but they weren't surprised at all.
After waking up the dazed waiter and inquiring about the floor plan of the Hero Building, the two of them headed for the stairs leading to the second floor.
As Luo Li walked towards the stairs with a seductive gait, the men fell silent, their eyes fixed on her breasts and crotch.
As she reached the stairs, they stared at her back and round buttocks.
If the two of them hadn't passed directly through the common path leading to the second floor, the men would have certainly flirted with Luo Li.
"Damn it! What a slut in the world dares to wear anything!" The man who had just been retorting to Ma Zi muttered softly after Luo Li disappeared from sight.
The reactions of the people on the first floor didn't escape Luo Li and Mu Chen, but they didn't care.
Their figures appeared on the second floor, attracting the attention of everyone who saw them.
However, they didn't stop there, heading straight up.
It wasn't until they reached the magnificently decorated fifth floor, a place only accessible to Earth Supremes, that they stopped and found a window seat.
The fifth floor wasn't crowded, but all were powerful Earth Supremes, masters of even small or medium-sized continents in remote locations.
Each of them was surrounded by beautiful women and possessed immense experience.
But when they saw Luo Li, they couldn't help but be struck by her.
If they hadn't been unable to determine Luo Li and Mu Chen's cultivation, they would have approached and chatted with her.
Although they didn't dare to strike up a conversation, their greedy gazes were fixed on Luo Li.
After Luo Li and Mu Chen sat down, the waiter immediately bowed respectfully and waited for their order.
However, Luo Li and Mu Chen didn't order. Instead, they smiled and said, "We're waiting for someone. We'll call you when they arrive." The waiter immediately withdrew.
However, he didn't return to his seat after leaving, but went up to the sixth floor.
However, this wasn't because the waiter possessed the strength to reach the sixth floor, but rather because he possessed a pass that allowed him to bypass restrictions, a pass only available to Hero Building staff.
"Hubby, this Battle Heaven City is more prosperous than it was back then. The War Emperor has done quite well these past few years." Luo Li ignored the gazes falling on her and smiled as she telegraphed to Mu Chen.
"Yes! He's changed a lot over the years. That lecherous fellow has become an excellent ruler. While the problems in the Western Heaven Battle Realm are significant, they are generally peaceful. What do you think? Do you want to play with him?" Mu Chen asked teasingly.
"Of course! Isn't the reason we came here to play with the man who pursued me back then? With my current status and strength, playing with him would definitely be more exciting," Luo Li replied.
Just as Luo Li and Mu Chen were conversing, a handsome young man who appeared to be in his twenties descended from the sixth floor.
The young man glanced around and immediately spotted Luo Li, who was sitting across from Mu Chen, and approached. The young man's appearance caused everyone on the fifth floor to gasp. It was clear they all knew him.
Both Luo Li and Mu Chen knew that the young man's identity must be extraordinary, but neither cared.
In the entire universe, no one's identity could possibly elicit their attention.
As the young man gracefully sat down next to Luo Li, neither of them said anything, merely watching him with amusement.
The young man didn't directly explain his purpose, but instead glanced around at the other guests on the fifth floor.
They immediately understood his intention and left, even the waiter.
None of them paid the bill, knowing that since the young man had "invited them to leave," it was his responsibility.
After the other guests had departed, the young man put his arm around Luo Li's slender waist and addressed Mu Chen directly, "You two must be from out of town and don't know me. I'm Zhan Wuji, the son of the Zhan Emperor. I'm very fond of your wife, and I'd like to know what terms would allow you to spend a few days with me."
Zhan Wuji's words were direct, but not unpleasant.
He didn't chase Mu Chen away outright, but instead offered him a "deal."
Both Mu Chen and Luo Li sensed the young man harbored no ill intentions. His sole purpose in revealing his identity and offering a deal was to test Mu Chen.
He wanted to know if this man was worthy of the woman who had captured his heart. If it was, he'd give up. If it wasn't... he wouldn't mind a chance to steal someone else's wife.
