Chapter 37.2 : Afterlife Loft
Of course she was not about to believe that anyone would readily face the risk of backlash just to show off before people, that created such a big commotion.
Unless that person was already a terrifyingly powerful ent.i.ty.
Qing Yu furrowed her brows to think about it for awhile and finally shook her head in the end. "I should just forget about it all. I am thinking too much into it."
From the time she came to this other world, together with the years that she wandered and roamed around as a spirit body, even she could not remember how long it had been. Not to mention after she entered this young lady"s body, another six years had pa.s.sed.
As for that fella, even if he was not yet dead, it was thought that he would be incredibly old already.
Thinking that that person might now have a full white beard, his face old and haggard, Qing Yu could not help but laugh aloud.
She had changed into another disguise when she came out this time. Where she had merely slightly altered her looks before, her countenance had still been much too attractive and even when she dressed herself up as a male, she still drew countless gazes onto herself.
This time, she went ahead to darken her complexion and thickened her eyebrows greatly, making herself look a lot more handsome looking but less eye catching, which would attract a little less attention.
After making her purchases, she immediately left. Her gaze drifted over to glance at the Gathered Cloud Loft a moment and saw that its doors were tightly shut, the building already emptied out. Upon the steps in front, an old man in grey sat, hugging his arms in front of him as he dozed, his mouth seemingly muttering something intermittently.
Qing Yu raised an eyebrow quizzically and then paid him no mind before turning around to walk away.
Behind her, it was not known when the grey robed old man had opened his eyes, though they did not show the slightest bit of grogginess despite having just woken up, staring straight at that pet.i.te back, and a sharp glint flashed in those eyes.
The New Moon Lake was a famous place of interest for leisure.
And because of that, the place also had a most regal and luxurious inn there, called the "Afterlife Loft".
But do not be taken aback by the name of the inn. The reason the place was named the Afterlife Loft was because of a kind of wine they had at this place.
The name of that wine was called "Afterlife"s Water".
Though it"s called water, it was in fact wine. But it was not the same as regular wine, as it did not feel like it would pack the same kind of strong and dominating wallop in the beginning. When it first entered the mouth, it was as tasteless and bland as water, but once you drank a few cups, before one could react, its powerful kick would strike, which would be strong enough to even knock out a cow.
Drinking the Afterlife"s Water would keep one drunk for three days and three nights, and when one awoke from it, one would feel like one had awoken to a new life, all the past suffering and worries completely and cleanly forgotten.
This was considered to be another one of its amazing attributes but unfortunately the secret recipe was not shared, and you will only be able to find it at the Afterlife Loft.
Countless people have come to this place due to its reputation just to have a taste of this Afterlife"s Water.
And this mysterious top inn throughout the lands, was located at the border of the Green Wave Kingdom.
Besides lodging and meals, there were also many other places of interest for entertainment. There"s a auction house, a fighting arena, and also the more lighthearted song and dance performances, scholarly pursuits like poetry and paintings, catering to all kinds of indulgences.
Gathered inside the ground floor"s main hall, would mainly be people of the pugilist world, common riffraffs, a medley of good and evil people.
The Afterlife Loft had a total of nine levels. The first five levels were open to the public ma.s.ses, while the further few levels were places that mere money alone would not be able to buy you entry. It was reserved only for people of extraordinary ident.i.ties, people with powerful ent.i.ties and backing that would be able to enter.
But regardless which level it was, to want to even stay in there, one would not be able to even step inside without holding at least ten thousand taels of silver. Not only was the Afterlife Loft different from the other inns, all its charges were exorbitantly high. Hence those people who were feeling embarra.s.sed in their pouches would mostly remain only on the ground level, where the charges were lowest, but was most crowded.
To be able to set foot inside the Afterlife Loft, they were all not just ordinary people, and just being in there was a status symbol by itself.
But, because of all kinds of minor and petty things, fights often broke out between its patrons on a daily basis.
