Chapter 291: Hobbies
【Lin Baobao: That handsome man has moved in 0-0】
【Gu Yunxi: What handsome man? He looks so frail, what’s the use of just being handsome?】
【Lin Baobao: You being ugly is even more useless.】
【Gu Yunxi: How dare you attack the great, supreme VIP first batch of internal beta veteran players!】
【Zhou Baobao: Sis, this is male jealousy~】
【Yang Meimei: Aren’t you a man too?】
【Zhou Baobao: Oh, you! You rascal!】
【Wu Dahu: While playing the game, I suddenly felt my soul getting dirty.】
【Fan Guozhou: Their group is quite strange. Those cultivators are clearly very strong, at least Golden Core Stage. Everyone at Flying Sparrow Sect, pay attention during this time.】

“I’m going out for a walk. You don’t need to follow me.”
After Gong Xing Si said this, several people disagreed. Yin San said, “No, Young Master. If we don’t follow you, what if you are… what if you are…”
bullied.
They didn’t dare to say the rest of the sentence.
Everyone knew that in the Cultivation World, mortals were at the bottom of the food chain.
Before, they wouldn’t even spare mortals a glance.
Even though the Young Master wasn’t a mortal, he was currently…
“With you watching from the shadows, such a thing won’t happen.”
Gong Xing Si said this, his gaze falling on the street outside.
The layout here was strange. Mortals were placed in the safest, innermost areas.
In a typical Sect, they were either separated from mortals or had specific areas designated where mortals were forbidden to enter.
Here, there were no clear regulations.
Although mortals had their own living areas, there were no restrictions. They could go anywhere.
Moreover, even a group of cultivators were mixed in, living with them.
Yes, because some Players didn’t like living on the mountain.
Gong Xing Si and the others could have stayed in the restaurants outside, but after observing, he chose this place.
It was only because he felt that the mortals here seemed a bit different from other places.
He wanted to see for himself.
Although the four Yin brothers were worried, they couldn’t do anything else. They could only watch Gong Xing Si walk out alone.
They watched from the shadows.
Yin San muttered, “Those cultivators will definitely bully our Young Master when they see how handsome he is…”
Yin Da couldn’t help but roll his eyes. “The Young Master came with us. Those cultivators wouldn’t be so blind.”
Gong Xing Si walked on the street, listening to the hawking and shouting along the way.
The mortal area in Wang’an County was almost complete.
Besides the Spirit Wine Workshop, various small workshops like the Cloth Workshop had been established.
It mainly created a self-sufficient and self-transporting route for mortals.
Mortals also had trade channels among themselves.
For example, clothes were daily necessities.
They possessed Modern Technology and could produce better Cloth to sell to mortals in other Sects.
Now, all that was left was to officially open the roads to mortals.
However, considering that building roads was still too conspicuous, Wang’an County was gradually expanding its area outwards.
The original County Town was too small.
Wang’an County had thousands of mortals. Now that people had been assigned to various workshops, there was a shortage of manpower.
Zhen Weida and the others had even found other ordinary Ore resources.
Currently, there was still Spirit Ore to research. If the area continued to expand, manpower would soon be insufficient.
There were very few Players responsible for teaching, and they were purely doing it out of passion.
But now, the mortals, under the guidance of the Longevity Sect disciples, had learned many things. Compared to their previous idle days, they now seemed to have something to strive for.
Those Longevity Sect disciples knew too much. They not only cultivated but could also create many things that mortals could use.
That vibrant, joyful atmosphere was something Gong Xing Si rarely saw in the mortals of many Sects.
Especially in his own Sect.
Gong Xing Si thought of the numb faces of many mortals.
Silver Firmament Sect was a Sect under Tianyang Sect. In Tianyang Sect, the status of mortals was only slightly higher than that of Demonic Cultivators.
Demonic Cultivators were equivalent to slaves.
He had seen the mortals of Tianyang Sect. They looked at cultivators with fear, timidity, and Despair…
They had all sorts of expressions. In Tianyang Sect’s territory, even cultivators were like lambs to the slaughter, let alone these mortals.
If Gong Xing Si hadn’t had an accident and lost all his Cultivation, becoming no different from a mortal, he probably would never have had any interaction with these mortals in his entire life.
He also felt the gazes of other cultivators towards him.
But unlike before, these cultivators’ gazes were more like open curiosity.
Some mortals were also discreetly sizing him up.
Gong Xing Si walked into a shop selling various Pastries. Inside, there were many mortal Pastries he had never seen before.
He casually pointed to one and asked, “What is this?”
The Boss lady smiled and said, “This is a Cream Cake.”
Gong Xing Si found the smell very sweet. He said, “Give me a few pieces.”
Just as he was about to pay, he remembered he couldn’t open his Cosmic Bag. He could only wave to Yin Da and the others not far away.
Yin Da came over and asked, “Young Master?”
Gong Xing Si pointed to the items he was buying and said, “Pay.”
Yin Da: “…”
These mortals were so tactless.
They, cultivators, had to pay for food?
Shouldn’t they be given it for free with great deference?!
But the Young Master was watching, so Yin Da had no choice.
Then, he took out a Mid-grade Spirit Stone from his Cosmic Bag and handed it to the Boss lady.
The Boss lady’s eyes widened. “This, this isn’t worth that much.”
Yin Da thought to himself, it certainly wasn’t worth that much. A sensible mortal should have said it was free.
Their inner thought was that eating mortal food was an honor.
After all, cultivators rarely ate Mortal Food.
Unexpectedly, the Boss lady said in the next second, “I, I’ll add some more pastries for you. One Low-grade Spirit Stone is enough. If you don’t have it, I’ll call our Boss over to give you back the extra Spirit Stones.”
Yin Da: “…”
The Boss lady called out towards the inside of the pastry shop.
A moment later, a female Player with flour on her face walked out.
Although this Player’s appearance was ordinary, she had a special aura.
As she came out, she casually wiped her nose with her arm.
She seemed to be making pastries. The Boss lady quickly said, “These two customers gave a Mid-grade Spirit Stone.”
“Oh, oh.” The female Player who came out quickly took out ninety-nine Low-grade Spirit Stones from her Mustard Seed Bag and gave them to Yin Da. “Here, this is your change.”
Yin Da: “…”
He glanced at Gong Xing Si, then at the female cultivator, seeming somewhat incredulous.
“Are you the Boss here?”
Shouldn’t cultivators open Alchemy shops and Artifact Refining shops?
This was his first time seeing someone selling Mortal Food.
The female Player raised an eyebrow slightly. “It’s just my hobby.”
