Chapter 403: Chapter 403 Haolong Villa

"Don’t blame her; President Su isn’t usually like this. She tends to be quite aloof with others. It’s just that she really admires Ye Youlong, so that’s why she’s acting like such a fangirl," said Liu Xin, quickly speaking up as she sensed the atmosphere was off.

As soon as she spoke, Su Mulan also immediately realized that she had been somewhat indiscreet.

She gave Ye Youlong an awkward smile.

"Right, right, I’m not usually like this. It’s mainly because I saw my idol," she said.

Idol?

Hearing this word, both Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong couldn’t help but be surprised.

Ye Youlong was Su Mulan’s idol?

Why?

Just as Su Mulan was about to explain why, they had already arrived at Haolong Villa.

The five of them had to get off the car first.

Haolong Villa is Dragon Capital’s finest private banquet hotel, catering exclusively to the elite upper class; everyone who comes here is either rich or noble.

As soon as Xiao Zhan and his group’s car stopped, two exceptionally figured, outstandingly tempered attendants opened their car door and led them.

"Miss Su, your private courtyard has been prepared. Please follow me," one said.

Yes, coming here isn’t just about booking a room and simply eating a few Federation-protected Demon Beast dishes.

Instead, it starts with a whole courtyard suite where everything you can think of is ready for you.

And even if something isn’t available, at your command, it will be procured for you immediately.

Inside the estate, it is very large; reaching their private courtyard also requires taking a special car.

"This Haolong Villa really downplays itself, with such a large domain; it’s named just a villa, it could be named a nation," Xiao Zhan sat in the car, looking at the scenery passing by outside the window, and commented with a touch of mockery.

Although he’s an elite in this lifetime, his mind still slightly resents the wealthy.

Such a vast estate must involve some shady schemes.

Catching onto the subtext in Xiao Zhan’s words, Liu Xin smiled faintly and said, "It’s indeed very large, but everything is legitimately handled."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan just chuckled and said nothing.

The paperwork may be legit, but is the process? Who knows.

"Today’s attendance is quite high, more than usual, is there any special occasion?" Liu Xin asked at this moment.

She noticed that many of the outside courtyards were occupied, nearly ninety percent full, which is not such a high occupancy rate on a normal day.

"You’ve just come back, so you don’t know. Today there’s a private auction, there are said to be many extremely valuable items, hence attracting so many people," explained Su Mulan.

"I see," Liu Xin understood.

Su Mulan then said to Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong, "After we finish eating, we can check out the auction. It’s said to feature items from a newly discovered Secret Realm, and everything there is very High Grade; there might be things that interest you."

"We’ll see," Xiao Zhan wasn’t too interested.

For him and Ye Youlong, unless it’s something of ultra-high quality, they generally aren’t interested in average items.

Because they are of no use.

Seeing their lack of interest, Su Mulan didn’t say much more.

Soon, the car left the public route and entered a private courtyard.

The courtyard was in the style of ancient Chinese architecture, with golden lights and crimson buildings complementing each other, majestic and imposing, looking just like a miniature palace.

"I know you guys like things from the ancient era, so I specifically arranged for this courtyard set. What do you think, are you satisfied?" Su Mulan said.

"You seem to know quite a lot," Xiao Zhan remarked.

He doesn’t like ancient times; he’s just familiar with them. And Ye Youlong was just interested in understanding him more, which is why he looked into ancient times.

To Su Mulan, however, it became a liking.

"Of course, I have to know my idol well," Su Mulan said happily as if praised.

Then she ushered Xiao Zhan and the others into the house.

Upon arriving at a massive dining room and settling down, the service staff began serving dishes.

"These are all freshly made. They have their own timing sequence, making sure that the dishes are ready just as we sit down, without the need for extra waiting."

"And they are cooked in a specific order, ensuring that each course is at its best taste when served."

Su Mulan proactively explained, as if afraid Xiao Zhan would overthink.

Xiao Zhan nodded without saying much, as it’s quite normal for this kind of private estate to have such precise control over timing.

Not being able to do so would be abnormal.

Soon, the dishes were all served, filling the table lavishly, looking like a complete Manchu Han Imperial Feast.

But it had its usual downsides: oversized plates, lots of variety, but little portion size.

Without any formalities, everyone ate casually, digging in as soon as the food was served.

It must be said, although the portions were small, the food was indeed delicious.

Moreover, the ingredients were top-tier Demon Beast materials, many of which even Xiao Zhan hadn’t seen before. While these were rare, in terms of quality, the entire table’s worth wouldn’t compare to a single luxury in Xiao Zhan’s Dimension Space.

But after all, it was masterful culinary art, and this was probably the first time Xiao Zhan had eaten to such delight.

After a satisfying meal.

They went to the lounge.

Su Mulan brought out two gift boxes and handed them to Ye Youlong, opening one of them, she introduced, "This is our Guild’s top-tier healing Holy Medicine, called the All Recovery Pill! It’s virtually priceless out in the market; its effect is that no matter how serious your injury, just consuming one of these will heal you back to normal in ten seconds, even if your limbs have been severed, they can be regenerated."

"Regenerate severed limbs? That powerful? What about a severed head?" Xiao Zhan looked at the tiny white pill in the box, about the size of a marble he used to play with as a kid.

"That won’t work," said Su Mulan.

"Oh."

Xiao Zhan was just joking, of course he knew it wouldn’t work.

If your head falls off, that means you’re dead, no medicine can help.

Perhaps some kind of miraculous skill could work.

But as far as resurrection from death goes, Xiao Zhan has not yet heard of anyone capable of it.

Xiao Zhan used his Perception Skill to sense the pill, and indeed, he felt a very strong Life Force from it. He wanted to discern the components within the pill more closely, but sadly, the Perception Skill had its limits, and he couldn’t sense it.

Next, Su Mulan opened the second gift box and said, "This pill is our Guild’s top Recovery Pill, even more valuable than the All Recovery Pill just now, and isn’t seen in the market normally."

"Its effect is that within ten seconds, it can restore all the energy lost by a Spirit Master, and without any side effects. In battle, it’s like being given a second chance! Such a pill is specially supplied by our Mulan Guild to Sixth Grade Spirit Masters; ordinary people don’t have the privilege to use it under normal circumstances."
