About fifteen minutes after Yuan ordered the entire menu, the workers returned with dishes in their hands.

"Allow me to welcome you all to the Lotus Gourmet once again, esteemed guests. I am the manager of this place. If there's anything you need from us, just let us know."

Although none of the workers there recognized Yuan and the others' identity, it was clear as day that they were important people just by their noble appearance, not to mention their unfathomable aura.

While the workers were not cultivators, the manager was a peak Spirit Apprentice, and he could feel an invisible aura that made him feel like he was lacking air whenever he got close to Yuan's group.

Unbeknownst to him, they were all above Spirit Master. If he'd known that, the manager would probably be speaking on his knees right now.

The moment the dishes were placed on the table, Yuan began moving his hands and mouth.

Xiao Hua and the others were used to Yuan's eating habits by now so they didn't react when they saw him gobbling down the food like a food monster.

The workers, however, had never seen anything like this before and were greatly shocked by the speed at which the food was disappearing from the table.

Not even a minute after the dish was placed on the table, it would be cleared out by Yuan who didn't even need to look at the dish, as he was subconsciously using Divine Sense.

Of course, Yuan made sure to leave some food for the others, and he would eventually slow down his consumption speed.

About half an hour into their meal, Yuan could suddenly hear a small commotion coming from the outside.

"What? You don't have your best room available? Then make it available! Do you know who we are?!" An arrogant voice resounded.

When Yuan heard this voice, his eyebrows raised, as it sounded very familiar for some reason.

A few moments later, Yuan could hear heavy footsteps approaching their private room.

"I don't care who's eating in here right now, scram for me! The Du Family will be eating here now!"

A young man with an arrogant look appeared and forcefully opened the door before walking inside while shouting.

However, when this young man noticed the beauties sitting around the table, he immediately stopped talking and stared at them with a dazed look on his face.

Since Yuan had his back facing the door, the loud young man didn't notice Yuan's presence at first.

It was at this moment Yuan turned around to look at the young man.

Indeed, he was one of the Du Brothers that Yuan had an altercation with shortly after he became a Spirit Warrior.

"Young Master Du Bai, please slow down."

Suddenly, another figure appeared behind him, and it was the Spirit Master that was in charge of protecting the Du Brothers.

"Hm?"

The Spirit Master's gaze subconsciously turned to look at Xiao Hua for some reason, and when he saw her cute and innocent face, he jumped back and said, "W-What are you doing here?!"

"Why are you shouting like that? Who is—"

It was at this moment Du Bai snapped out of his daze and turned to look at Xiao Hua and Yuan.

"Y-You're that bastard from the auction house! What are you doing here?!" Du Bai finally recognized Yuan.

"As you can see, I am eating here— at least I was until you came barging in here. What do you want?" Yuan said to him with a frown on his face.

Did he not learn his lesson from their previous confrontation?

Du Bai suddenly pointed at Yuan and laughed with an ugly smile on his face.

"Hahaha! I have been looking everywhere for you, you damn bastard! Did you think I would forget about you or that humiliation I experienced on that day?! Not a chance! My parents will be here any minute now, and when they do, I will make you regret ever being born!"

Then Du Bai pointed at Feng Yuxiang and Lan Yingying, "I don't know who you are but you should follow me starting today instead of this loser! My Du Family is a top family in the Lower Heavens! My parents are also Spirit Masters!"

"The Du Family, huh?" Feng Yuxiang mumbled in a nonchalant manner.

A moment later, Du Hai, Du Bai's brother, entered the restaurant alongside a pair of couples and two other families and their children.

"Du Hai! Come look at what we have here!" Du Bai shouted to him.

"What is it? I know you want to reserve the seats, but did you have to run all the way here?" Du Hai sighed as he approached the private room.

His eyes widened when he saw Yuan's handsome face.

"It's you!"

"Are you two looking for a beating again?" Yuan said to them after wiping his hands and mouth with a wet cloth.

"Hahaha! Beat us? I would love to see you try!"

The Du Brothers stood there with their chest proudly puffed.

"What's going on here? Where are our seats, Du Bai?" A middle-aged man suddenly approached them from behind, and the others soon followed.

"Father! I found us something even better! Do you remember that time we went to an auction house and returned with a bruised body? This is the bastard that assaulted us on that day! We finally found him!" Du Bai ran to his father before pointing at Yuan.

"What?" The Du Brother's father and the others there turned to look at Yuan and his table.

However, their eyes didn't linger on Yuan for more than a second because something else had caught their attention— the beautiful young woman sitting across from Yuan.

"M-Madam Feng?! W-What are you doing here?!" The middle-aged man exclaimed in a shocked voice when he saw Feng Yuxiang sitting there with a frown on her face.

"Du Wei, you dare come in here and question me when your children disturbed my peace and even worse— insulted my Young Master? Are you looking to die today?" Feng Yuxiang said to him in a cold voice before standing up and glaring at them in an oppressive manner, sending shivers down their spine.
