Chapter 440: 440: Fairy Forest
Each person had their intelligent life help them teleport, and began to head toward the Holy Demon Star.
With a flash of white light before Lin Zhen’s eyes, he arrived at the entrance of the bar.
Here, Lin Zhen felt a sense of exhilaration.
The surrounding area was filled with towering trees, lush greenery, and unlike the forests on Earth, this place was filled with a strong elemental aura.
Right ahead, a colossal tree formed an almost natural tree house, and a green spiral staircase led up to the brilliant lights on the tree.
“Welcome, gentlemen!”
“Would you like to try the pear blossom wine brewed by little Xue’er?”
“Hey! Handsome guy over here, dare to gamble with us? Whoever loses takes off a piece of clothing.”
One by one, voluptuous and enchanting fairies appeared through the gaps in the leaves, waving at Lin Zhen and his group.
Each fairy’s face was extremely seductive, some with snow-white fox tails, some with cat tails, all dressed scantily and with provocative eyes always luring men’s souls.
Shiny pieces of jade-like arms and legs flashed like meat, these people were all dazzled.
“My god! These are real fairies!”
“Look at that one, she has a fox tail.”
“That one is like a sexy little wild cat. Ah! She’s smiling at me… I’m going to faint!”
“This is going to cost someone’s life. If we brought just one of these fairies back to our hometown, they could overthrow the dynasty. Our hometown folks who are still in the cold weapon era would probably die from nosebleeds if they saw them.”
Although Lin Zhen and their powers were not bad, the strength of these fairies was also very good. Each of them was at least at the Star Realm level, and they also knew how to charm. Their smiles and frowns were all full of charm; it was not easy to resist their allure.
By Lin Zhen’s side, Cao Yang’s mouth was wide open and he couldn’t close it, while only Taishan, the guy with different aesthetics from the others, was somewhat normal.
Huo Li himself also showed a strong desire at this moment, but his control was much better than the others and he quickly withdrew his gaze.
“Wipe your drool, remember we now represent the Star River Giant Beast Alliance, and don’t disgrace our alliance.”
The crowd finally calmed down and followed Huo Li’s footsteps toward the entrance of the bar.
The words Fairy Forest shone brightly, attracting attention in the dark forest. As Lin Zhen and his friends walked in, the words suddenly exploded.
The group was startled, and after a close look, they found that the glowing words were actually made up of fireflies.
The fireflies danced in the air, and rapidly reformed the words “Welcome.”
Lin Zhen marveled at this miraculous scene. This bar really had a unique charm and was understandably expensive.
After entering, an elf with an extremely pure face, like a dreamy first love, gently bowed to Huo Li: “Young Master Huo Li, it’s been a long time since you came to see Xue’er.”
Huo Li waved his hand with a ripple: “This young master has been busy, later we’ll taste Xue’er’s Nu’er Hong.”
“Heehee! Please go upstairs then, your reserved room is ready, and drink a few more glasses later.”
Huo Li turned around gracefully and took the lead, going up to the second floor.
Lin Zhen and the others followed behind Huo Li, looking left and right, feeling that their eyes were not enough to take it all in.
Looking down from the second floor, beautiful little elves in maid outfits, revealing their snow-white legs and shoulders like butterflies, were shuttling through the hall, constantly serving drinks and food to the customers.
On the central tree stump stage, a group of little elves were performing. The elves were natural singers, dancers, and beautiful from birth. Their wonderful singing and dancing were like an enchanting fairyland, leaving people unable to take their eyes off them.
Bai Di couldn’t help but ask, “Boss Huo Li, why don’t we go to the first floor?”
Huo Li looked at him: “Those on the first floor are just country bumpkins, not befitting my status.”
Bai Di immediately stopped talking with a sheepish smile.
Although the second floor was private rooms, the partitions between them were just tree walls covered with flowers, and they could see each other in an open layout.
Huo Li led Lin Zhen and the others to a private room on the second floor and sat down.
There was a box of cigarettes on the table. Huo Li picked one up: “You should try this too. This is the Elf Flower Smoke. The smoke produced has no side effects. One costs 50,000 Sanjiang coins, not something just anyone can afford.”
As he spoke, he put the cigarette in his mouth. A Barbie-sized little elf with transparent dragonfly-like wings appeared from somewhere, flew in front of Huo Li, and gently raised her hand. A ball of flame danced on her palm.
“Young Master Huo Li, please!”
The little elf smiled brightly, and Huo Li’s face showed a smug expression. He lit his cigarette, took a heavy puff, and then picked up a petal from the table, gently placing it in the little elf’s embrace: “So well-behaved. This is your reward.”
“Thank you, Young Master!” The little elf flew onto Huo Li’s shoulder, sat down, and gently lowered her head to kiss his face before flying away with a giggle.
A Martial Artist asked in confusion: “Boss Huo Li, what does it mean to give her a petal? And why is she so small?”
“Hehe! She’s small because she’s from the Flower Fairy Clan within the elves. She can freely change size. If you’re willing to give her a table full of petals, I believe she’d be willing to become an adult and spend a romantic night with you.”
“Really? I want to try!”
The Martial Artist’s saliva almost flowed out as he reached out to grab the petals on the table.
At this moment, Huo Li let out a cold snort: “But I advise you to think it through. There are a thousand petals on this table, each worth one hundred thousand, adding up to one hundred million Sanjiang coins. Although we’re friends, I don’t think your current performance deserves me spending one hundred million to help you pick up a girl.”
The Martial Artist immediately wilted, not daring to touch the petals again.
Huo Li blew out a smoke ring: “I’m not short on money, but I hope you guys can restrain yourselves a bit. Don’t go too far. If any of you can genuinely please me, I’ll arrange for a Flower Fairy to accompany you for the night.”
A few Martial Artists raised their heads expectantly, and Huo Li pushed the cigarettes towards them: “Smoke up, have as many cigarettes as you want. If you want to reward a waitress, just give her some petals. I won’t interfere as long as it’s not over the top. As I said, I invited you to spend and broaden your horizons, so I won’t break my word.”
Most of the Martial Artists took cigarettes, and the tiny Flower Fairy flew over, lighting them one by one. Each one inhaled with satisfied expressions on their faces.
Lin Zhen also followed the crowd and smoked one, not acting any different from the others. Huo Li secretly glanced at Lin Zhen, his eyes showing a hint of contempt.
“Alright, let’s order. Just one dish per person, don’t worry about the price.”
A menu appeared in front of each person, filled with various dishes and shockingly high prices.
Cao Yang ordered a braised bear paw, worth about three hundred thousand.
The others also ordered quite a few dishes, but they didn’t order anything too expensive. After all, it was Huo Li treating them, and they didn’t dare to be too extravagant.
When it came to Lin Zhen’s turn, he glanced at the menu and felt that every dish seemed too small. He was quite hungry.
Flipping to the last page, Lin Zhen’s eyes lit up: “I’ll have this one.”
The beautiful elf waitress beside him immediately smiled: “Sir, you have a great taste. Our restaurant’s signature dish is the Roasted Mammoth Elephant. Not every guest has your audacity!”
Lin Zhen smiled slightly: “It’s fine, we have a generous host today. Please serve the dish.”
The others turned their eyes to the last page and gasped.
Roasted Mammoth Elephant, price: 88.88 million Sanjiang coins!
Some Martial Artists took a sharp breath. This price genuinely shocked them. A single dish worth over a hundred million Sanjiang coins was indeed bold. Though Huo Li was hosting, Lin Zhen was going a bit overboard!
Glancing at Huo Li, they saw his eyelids involuntarily twitching, his gaze towards Lin Zhen filled with a trace of killing intent.
Originally, Huo Li had a good plan. He came here to show off extravagantly, but in reality, he only spent a few million.
He intentionally revealed his identity, making others feel awed by him, so when they ordered, they wouldn’t dare to let loose. In the end, they wouldn’t spend too much; a little over ten million or twenty million would be enough.
But he never expected Lin Zhen to pull a fast one on him, ordering the restaurant’s signature dish – Roasted Mammoth Elephant!
This dish alone cost almost ninety million, so it seemed today’s expenses would definitely exceed one hundred million.
Although Huo Li was wealthy, he wasn’t rich enough to view one hundred million Sanjiang coins as nothing.
“Lin Zhen… your appetite is really something!” Huo Li’s voice was cold between gritted teeth.
“It’s not bad, mainly because Young Master Huo Li is treating us today. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare order this dish normally. What, Young Master Huo Li, are you worried about this little scost?”
Hearing Lin Zhen’s words, others looked at Huo Li, making it difficult for him to maintain his composure.
“Hahaha~~!! What are you talking about? If you don’t even dare to order dishes, what’s the point of coming to the Fairy Forest? Feel free to order up!”
Huo Li couldn’t air his grievances after being slapped with such flattery. For the sake of his reputation, he couldn’t lose his temper in front of everyone. Wearing a fake smile on his face, he secretly planned to deal with Lin Zhen.
His ultimate goal for hosting the dinner was to become the leader of these Martial Artists, with them all obeying his commands once they entered the World Stone. Therefore, today was critical.
“I absolutely can’t let Lin Zhen ruin today’s event. I must appear particularly prestigious today to deter these geniuses.”
Huo Li quietly pondered, waiting for his next chance to show off.
