Chapter 2628  Intimidated Beauties And Change In Strategy

The flower beauties exchanged glances, their expressions a mixture of surprise and unease. Almost in unison, they discreetly touched identical ornate rings on their fingers, activating a mental link that allowed them to communicate silently.

ʼWho is this guest that Master Chu brought?ʼ wondered the Cherry Blossom-clad girl, her pink-hued lips pursed in consternation.

ʼThe pressure around him… thereʼs an air of danger,ʼ replied the crimson-robed beauty with the rose in her hair, her sultry voice edged with caution.

ʼCould he be one of ”them”? the azure-robed girl speculated, her slender fingers fiddling with the bluebell earrings that jingled faintly as she moved.

ʼMost likely,ʼ said the green-clad woman adorned with a hellebore wreath. ʼSwitch to the no-contact protocol. We canʼt risk upsetting someone of his caliber.ʼ

This was not their first encounter with such a formidable presence. As the hostesses of the Tree Crown Hall, they were accustomed to dealing with powerful and influential patrons. The hall, perched high among the immense canopy of the four immortal trees, catered to the elite—powerful cultivators, affluent merchants, and enigmatic figures, each with their own retinues of protectors.

While the Four Fruits Restaurantʼs security was unmatched, many patrons relied on their own hidden experts for additional protection. Such guardians were often overzealous, disliking any physical contact with their charges. Even the renowned Ten Flower Beauties were not exempt from suspicion.

ʼBigshots like him mean generous rewards,ʼ the Cherry Blossom girl noted. ʼLetʼs adjust our approach and make him feel at ease.ʼ

Their decision reached, the women resumed their charming smiles, keeping close to Lin Mu but avoiding any physical contact.

”Letʼs get seated first, shall we? Your table is ready,” said the crimson-robed beauty, her voice as smooth as honey.

Daoist Chu laughed heartily, oblivious to the silent exchange. ”Yes, letʼs go. Iʼm starving!” He walked ahead, flanked by two of the girls, Little Lily and Little Cherry, who clung to his arms affectionately.

Lin Mu followed, noting the subtle change in the womenʼs demeanor. ʼThey must have picked up on my discomfort,ʼ he mused, misinterpreting the situation as professional intuition.

As they stepped into the exclusive Tree Crown Hall, Lin Mu felt a wave of awe. The dining area was a breathtaking fusion of natural beauty and masterful cultivation. Elevated high in the canopy of the Immortal Apple Tree, the hall offered a panoramic view of Ram Orchard City. Golden light filtered through the kaleidoscope of blossoms, casting an ethereal glow on the lush surroundings.

Golden light filtered through the kaleidoscope of blossoms, casting an ethereal glow on the lush surroundings.

The air was saturated with Qi, its richness amplified by intricate formations etched into the walls and floor. Lin Muʼs senses sharpened as he identified the layered arrays.

”Qi Channeling Array, Qi Amplification Array, Qi Isolating Array, and Qi Harmony Array,” Lin Mu muttered under his breath.

”Formation Master!” exclaimed the green-robed woman, her eyes sparkling. ”Haha, I guessed it first!”

”Thatʼs unfair!” pouted the azure-robed girl, her delicate features accentuated by her playful expression. ”Master Lin Mu revealed it himself.”

”Are you a Formation Master like Master Chu?” asked the Cherry Blossom girl, tilting her head inquisitively.

Lin Mu nodded. ”I am.”

”Haha, just a Formation Master?” Daoist Chu teased. ”Youʼre underselling yourself, Lin Mu.”

The womenʼs curiosity deepened.

”A Formation Grandmaster?” asked the crimson-robed beauty, her sultry voice carrying a note of admiration.

”I suppose so,” Lin Mu replied modestly, his skills needing no formal certification.

”Amazing! Master Chu keeps excellent company,” chimed the azure-robed girl with a radiant smile.

They reached their table—a sprawling, elevated platform nestled in the crown of the Immortal Apple Tree. Cushioned seats encircled the table, upholstered with Silk Touch Spring Cotton and covered in the soft sheen of Velvet Beetle Cloth. The gentle rustling of leaves above added a serene ambiance.

Once seated, the hostesses introduced themselves one by one:

”You may call me Miss Rose,” said the crimson-robed woman, her sultry allure impossible to ignore.

”Iʼm Miss Berry,” declared the pink-robed girl, her cherry blossom accessories accentuating her youthful charm.

”Miss Hellebore,” said the green-robed woman, her figure both graceful and voluptuous.

”Miss Bluebells,” the azure-robed woman twirled lightly, her petite frame exuding elegance.

”Miss Lavender,” introduced the lavender-clad woman, her voice like a soothing melody.

”Miss Lilac,” added the purple-robed beauty, her every movement deliberate and enticing.

”Miss Sunflower,” said a shy golden-robed girl, her bright eyes reflecting warmth.

”And I am Miss Chrysanthemum,” finished the woman in soft yellow robes, her dignified demeanor setting her apart.

Little Lily and Little Cherry, still clinging to Daoist Chu, completed the group of Ten Flower Beauties.

The introductions concluded, the women took their places around the table, their attentiveness and charm putting the guests at ease. Lin Mu, now surrounded by the Ten Flower Beauties, found himself momentarily overwhelmed by their radiant presence and the mesmerizing grandeur of the Tree Crown Hall.

Lin Mu noticed that this wasnʼt just an illusory effect either.

He narrowed his eyes and activated his Spatial Perception, sensing the fine movement of the Qi in the air.

ʼThe immortal Qi is gathering around the Ten Flower beauties?ʼ Lin Mu realized.

His eyes then focused on the accessories unique to each beauty.

ʼHuh… So theyʼre actually Immortal tools that act as Immortal Qi conduits.ʼ Lin Mu understood.

It was a rather subtle yet effective method of getting customers comfortable in the hall as well as around the Beauties.

Being around them would make them feel pleasant due to the enrichment of immortal Qi. This would make the Ten Flower Beauties seem pleasing even further, thus making them lower their guard.

Lin Mu couldnʼt help but think this was a rather ingenious way of ʼhostingʼ.

”Now then, what shall you gentlemen like to eat?” Miss Cherry asked, tapping the table.

SHUA

A formation screen appeared above it, showing either entire menu.

”Do you want my recommendations?” Daoist Chu asked.

”No need.” Lin Mu rejected. ”I want everything.” He said decisively.

”E-Everything?” Miss Sunflower almost stumbled upon hearing it. ”Master Lin Mu, would you like to take a look at the prices first?” ”I already look. I want it all. Ten servings for each dish.” Lin Mu replied. ”For now.” He added.
