Although there were quite a few people in the hotpot restaurant, it was very spacious with plenty of seats and private dining rooms, so there was no need to wait in line.
The group walked into the restaurant and followed the waiter's guidance to the private room area at the innermost part of the first floor.
Even though the restaurant served Sichuan and Chongqing-style hotpot, its interior decor was predominantly Tibetan.
Each private room was named after local scenic spots, snow-capped mountains, and the like.
Su Yang and his friends arrived at the door of a private room named Xiannairi. The waiter pushed the door open with a smile. "Please come in, handsome gents and beautiful ladies~"
"Okay~"
They replied and filed into the room. It was very spacious; besides the basic dining facilities, there was also a karaoke area of about twenty square meters.
Seeing this, Liu Bo asked, "Oh, we can sing here too?"
The waiter nodded, "Yes, sir. This private room has karaoke. You can sing and relax while waiting for your food."
"Nice. Please turn it on for us then. Your Brother Fatty here will treat everyone to a song~"
Hearing this, the others shot Liu Bo looks of disdain.
The waiter jogged over to turn on the equipment. Meng Wenzhou sat on the sofa and laughed, "Maybe you shouldn't sing~"
"Why? My singing is actually pretty good. Sure, I might not be on the same level as Brother Yang and Little Tang, but I'm still a karaoke king. Didn't you guys praise my singing on the yacht in Lucheng before?"
Pan Ning looked at Liu Bo. "Are you sure they were praising you?"
"Uh... weren't they?" Liu Bo scratched his head.
Meng Wenzhou chimed in, "I'm just afraid your singing is so beautiful it'll attract everyone else in the restaurant!"
"Haha, wouldn't that be even better?"
By this time, the waiter had turned on the screen and the song-selection machine. He walked over and smiled, "It's ready, sir. Just like a normal KTV, you can pick your songs on that machine and start singing."
"OK, OK."
The waiter picked up the menu from the table and looked at the others. "Ladies and gents, would you like to order now?"
"Let's order."
"Right away."
Soon, Su Yang ordered a few dishes that weren't included in the set meal, and the waiter left to prepare them.
Liu Bo had already selected a song and sat down on the sofa in front of the screen. "It's been a while since I last sang. Let me warm up first~"
He chose the song "What Else Do You Want Me to Do" and began singing after the intro finished.
—You stopped on this street we know so well.
As soon as Liu Bo belted out the first line, Chu Qiunan, who was drinking water, immediately did a spit-take right onto Zhang Ziming's face next to him.
"Hahaha!" The others burst into loud laughter at the sight.
Zhang Ziming was completely stunned by the sudden spray of water. He reached up to wipe his face and glared at Chu Qiunan. "Are you crazy?"
"Uh... sorry, sorry, I couldn't hold it in... Pfft!" Chu Qiunan said while continuing to laugh, accidentally spraying the remaining water in his mouth onto Zhang Ziming's face again.
"Hahahaha!!" The people around them laughed so hard they were doubling over, completely ignoring Liu Bo's singing.
—What else do you want me to do, what else do you want!!
At that moment, Liu Bo was completely absorbed in his own singing and had reached the chorus, squeezing his eyes shut and singing at the top of his lungs.
Zhang Ziming grabbed a tissue, wiping his face while glaring at Chu Qiunan. "Damn it, you got my clothes all wet."
"My bad, bro, my bad," Chu Qiunan apologized through his laughter.
Feeling helpless, Zhang Ziming quickly walked toward the restroom.
The others continued to suffer through Liu Bo's magical audio attack, their faces twisted in agony.
Su Yang pulled out a cigarette and laughed, "I can't hold it in anymore, I'm going out to use the restroom."
With that, he hurriedly fled the private room.
Outside the room was a long corridor. He spotted the restroom sign at the end of the hall.
After using the restroom, Su Yang went to the entrance of the hotpot restaurant to smoke. He had just lit his cigarette when the roaring sound of engines echoed from the street in the distance.
Slightly surprised, Su Yang tilted his head to look and saw three luxury cars speeding toward his direction.
Leading the pack was a black limited-edition BMW XM, with an on-road price of over three million yuan.
This car was a rare sight even in many major cities, yet he was actually seeing one in Litang today.
Trailing behind the XM was an even more expensive orange-red Lamborghini Urus.
Many pedestrians on the street turned their heads to look. The main reason was that the tranquil little town of Litang rarely heard such a furious engine roar, and everyone wanted to see what kind of badass cars they were.
Su Yang was also watching the cars. Because his line of sight had been blocked by the first two, he hadn't noticed the third one initially.
He thought the first two cars were already impressive enough, but he never expected the one following the Urus to be even more insane.
Looking closely, he saw it was an upgraded custom version of the AMG G63: the Brabus G900.
Limited to only 50 units worldwide, it was a top-tier high-performance luxury SUV priced at over 15 million yuan—even more expensive than his own Mansory Cullinan.
"Holy shit? A G900?" Su Yang stared blankly at the three cars speeding toward him. He merely glanced at the first two before completely ignoring them, locking his eyes straight onto the last one.
The vehicle exuded an overbearing aura with its gray body and rugged lines. The grille proudly displayed the black Brabus logo.
"Damn, are they on a road trip too? Are they really that hardcore? Taking a G900 out to drive the Sichuan-Tibet Highway?"
Sure enough, just as he finished speaking, the three cars reached the intersection in front of him and took a left turn into the open-air parking lot right next to the hotpot restaurant.
Seeing the "Must-Drive 328 in This Lifetime" stickers on the bodies of the three cars, Su Yang scratched his head. "They really are."
He muttered while looking at the license plates of the three cars. They all started with Hang-A. "They drove all the way from Hangzhou? That's so far, even more badass!"
By this time, the three cars had pulled into the relatively small open-air parking lot and parked in a row.
Intrigued, Su Yang walked forward a bit and tilted his head to look. He saw the occupants of the three cars slowly stepping out.
The first to get out of the XM were two handsome young men, both around 175 cm tall and looking to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
A man and a woman stepped out of the Urus. The man was slightly older, but thirty at most, while the woman was in her twenties and quite good-looking.
However, Su Yang was much more interested in seeing who would emerge from the last car, the G900.
A few seconds later, the driver's door of the G900 opened, and a young man wearing a black shirt and sunglasses stepped out.
The guy sported a simple, spiky short haircut. He wore a black shirt with the sleeves rolled up, revealing a string of English tattoos on his right forearm, and a gold Patek Philippe watch on his left wrist.
He gave off a very stylish vibe. He was quite tall, around 185 cm, slightly slim, and appeared quite young, probably around twenty-five or twenty-six.
After he got out, two beautiful women quickly followed from the passenger and rear seats—one with long hair and the other with short hair.
Su Yang shifted his gaze from the young man to the faces of the two women. Although their looks couldn't quite compare to Pan Ning and the others, they weren't too far off, probably scoring somewhere between 85 and 90 out of 100.
Watching the group from a short distance away, Su Yang smiled faintly.
— System, scan the three girls up ahead. Just tell me their names and appearance scores.
[Tao Shuwan, Appearance: 83]
[Wei Lin, Appearance: 86]
[Chen Yinglu, Appearance: 87]
— Pretty much exactly as I guessed.
As he was thinking this, the girls were already walking toward him, chatting and laughing.

g Yu was preparing for retirement when her organization decided to eliminate her. She transmigrated to a zombie apocalypse world. However, a tiny unexpected situation occurred: She somehow transformed into an adorable little girl?!

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
