1093: Chapter 666 1093: Chapter 666 Their skin was even better than the women in the city—each of them could easily outshine the rest!
The guards at the city gate were stunned, their hearts racing wildly.
Such noble individuals—how could they appear in a place like this?
They were practically their idols!
As men, with such faces, others would usually dismiss them as mere pretty boys!
But the oppressive aura from these few people showed they were far more than simple pretty boys!
Ah, ah, ah—could powerful cultivators have arrived here!
To think that even as gate guards, they could encounter such formidable figures—ah, ah, ah, they were about to faint!
At this city gate, there were also ordinary commoners, horse-drawn carriages, and riders passing through.
When they passed through the gate, they noticed the direction the soldiers were staring at with unblinking eyes.
And upon looking, they saw the same thing—what a sight to behold!
Everyone silently speculated about the identities of these noble young men.
Who exactly were they?
What could be their purpose for coming here?
Could they be here for a mission?
Which family had the fortune to invite such figures?
Or perhaps, were they powerful cultivators from the Cultivation World here to recruit disciples?
The annual disciple recruitment period hadn’t arrived yet!
Which sect were these immortals from?
Individuals of such nobility—forget becoming their disciples—even being a servant disciple or a servant for them would be worth it!
But becoming servants to individuals like these wouldn’t be so simple, would it?
As Jiang Tang and his group passed by, they left everyone dumbfounded!
Jiang Tang was dressed in a treasure robe that, in the eyes of ordinary mortals, shimmered like radiant silk.
The shimmering robe was white, layered with a moonlit hue, making him appear even paler.
Alongside him were Ye Tian, Green Ox, and Eryao, all similarly clad in white treasure robes of comparable shades.
Though their faces lacked the slightly enchanting quality of Jiang Tang’s, and in the eyes of others, none of them carried the same powerful aura as Jiang Tang.
Jiang Tang’s stately manner of walking outshone anyone in town, even those traveling in luxurious carriages.
His elegance made him appear as though he moved no slower than those riding in style!
Pan City—a small island that connects to the coast.
Passing ships often stop by, and the island serves as a gateway to other external realms, such as the mainland.
This compact island functions as both a city and a fairly large town.
Once inside, it is bustling with activity, with lively shops lining the streets!
Perhaps due to its proximity to the harbor, many ships come here to load and unload goods, as well as replenish supplies for their journey.
Passersby often stop to refuel or stock up.
On the main street inside the city—this was the primary area where residents came to stroll and shop.
A glance revealed the streets connecting to the main one were equally lively and vibrant, with poverty-stricken areas and affluent neighborhoods visible.
The disparity between wealth and poverty was particularly pronounced in the residential zones!
Jiang Tang led the group with the intention of sampling the local cuisine.
Naturally, he avoided the other shops, aware that even in the Mortal Realm, the goods here were largely unremarkable.
They lacked no mortal items—having looted so many imperial palaces in the past, they had claimed countless mundane goods that now served as gifts but were otherwise useless to them!
Jiang Tang and his companions passed through, drawing the covert gaze of everyone they encountered—whether on horseback or riding in carriages.
Even the people along the street stopped in their tracks, their eyes filled with surprise and admiration.
Both men and women stared dumbfounded!
Figures like these had never appeared in the city before!
It was said that in places where emperors resided, their princes were incredibly noble.
But figures of such nobility wouldn’t come to a place like this!
Similarly, the powerful immortals from Immortal Sect—why would such skilled individuals show up here?
Perhaps members of small sects coming to recruit disciples annually might visit the Mortal Realm.
Some major sects, which recruited once every ten years, would dispatch representatives here.
Yet none of those representatives could compare to the grandeur of these young men!
Ordinary mortals couldn’t discern their abilities, but they could sense the natural nobility radiating from these individuals.
A mere glance was enough to feel the oppressive majesty emanating from them!
How could individuals like these have come here?
From afar, people stopped in their tracks upon seeing them approach!
Jiang Tang felt as if he were being ogled like a monkey today.
The rare playful whim to visit and enjoy a meal here made him feel a tinge of regret!
Being stared at wasn’t exactly enjoyable—perhaps this was just one of the differences between mortals and cultivators.
Mortals—while they feared powerful immortals, they held a slight audacity to glimpse immortals from up close, hoping to catch their attention somehow.
Cultivators might harbor similar desires, yet they understood they couldn’t brazenly approach individuals of such power and simply admire them quietly from a distance!
Eryao was feeling rather displeased, but the master had insisted on taking this stroll.
Being stared at with admiring gazes—of course, his majestic self as the Divine Dragon should be worshipped, wasn’t that only natural?
He desperately wanted to summon a thunderstorm and heavy rain to force these gawkers to run away and disperse!
Green Ox, in contrast, was quite intrigued.
Rarely venturing into the Mortal World, he normally undertook missions in isolated spaces.
He couldn’t compare to Eryao.
After all, Eryao had once spent over a month completing a mission in Eternal Star under the guise of a nobleman, staying at Taoist Temples, Zheng Residences, and various inns, where he ate, slept, and interacted with people far more frequently!
Green Ox, on the other hand, felt slightly shy under the direct stares of strangers.
He was, after all, a seldom-seen pet who rarely assumed human form for leisurely outings like this!
Hearing the endless praise from bystanders made his heart secretly joyous!
Ye Tian, born into privilege across every realm, had grown accustomed to such reverence—admiring gaze after admiring gaze!
These looks—whether marveling at his handsomeness or his power—accompanied by spoken compliments or purely conveyed through their eyes!
He had grown so used to such adoration that it now merely felt routine!
For Jiang Tang, rarely making appearances on bustling streets and ignoring the attention, this didn’t actually pose any deep psychological discomfort.
Looking good and being admired was no different than a celebrity being ogled by fans, after all!
Jiang Tang reflected on how his cultivation had refined him, how both his face and stature had transformed—his skin so flawless now.
If this were the modern era and he were a celebrity, he’d undoubtedly be a king among stars!
Different eras came with different sensations—such as now, where one appearance in a particular place could attract a sea of gazes!
Perhaps this allure stemmed from his power—or merely his captivating appearance drawing countless admirers!
Jiang Tang noticed a tea house with a sign above reading “Immortal Residence.”
From not too far away, he strode toward Immortal Residence.
The commotion stirred by his presence on the main street seemed to have caught the notice of those dining at nearby tea houses or inns.
Those seated by the window with views of the street turned their gazes downward.
In private dining rooms positioned adjacent to the street, some intentionally chose those spots for the scenery and were now treated to this spectacle!
Four strikingly handsome, stylish, and refined gentlemen walked down the street, their elegance and majesty evoking whistles from certain men and “Wow!” sounds from women!
Eryao felt disgruntled, his sharp glare sweeping like a blade toward the whistling men, scaring them into silence.
The pain in their eyes made them stop looking entirely!
He also glared fiercely at the women making noise!
Yet despite his ferocious glare, the women did not restrain themselves—his fierce demeanor only seemed endearing to them!
Even in such a public setting, some people ceased commenting while others could not stop watching!
At Immortal Residence’s restaurant, it was currently lunchtime.
On the second floor by the window stood a woman accompanied by her maid and some of her friends!
They had gathered at the restaurant not for flower or wine appreciation, but for a peculiar kind of enjoyment: spotting striking men.
Their playful game was to make bets—to gain the attention of such men, perhaps obtain their contact information, or even become friends—and the one who succeeded would win!
In this relatively small place bustling with people, strangers came and went.
This playful wager caused no embarrassment.
It was simply part of their lighthearted games!
