Chatting among themselves, everyone followed Shoko Honma toward the side of the road.
Liu Bo ran up to Su Yang and asked, "Brother Yang, this girl is pretty hot."
"Watch what you say, she speaks Chinese."
"Oh, really?"
"Yeah, she can communicate normally. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent her to pick up us Chinese tourists."
"Nice, what's her name?"
"Shoko Honma."
"Honma what?"
"Ugh, stop nagging and hurry up."
As they spoke, they quickly arrived beside two black Toyota Alphards. Shoko Honma turned to look at Su Yang and the others with a polite smile. She spoke again in her slightly broken Chinese, "Everyone, please get in."
"Alright! Beautiful, which car are you taking?" Liu Bo asked, stepping forward with a beaming smile.
"I'll be in the first car."
"Is that so? Then I'll take the first car too, hehe."
Seeing this, Meng Wenzhou and the others shook their heads speechlessly.
After stowing all the luggage, the rest of the group also got in. Liu Bo, Meng Wenzhou, Jiang Xiaotang, Tang Ziyun, and Su Qingci took the first car, while the remaining people took the second.
Once they were aboard, the driver started the engine and slowly drove down the road.
Along the way, the girls were very excited, rolling down the windows to take in the foreign scenery.
The urban construction of the Island Nation was quite different from that of China. The houses along the road were very distinctive, there weren't many people on the streets, and the roads were very clean, though there were quite a few telephone poles.
It was about sixty kilometers from Chengtian Airport to downtown Dongjin. Strictly speaking, the airport wasn't actually in Dongjin, but in Chengtian City of the neighboring Qianye Prefecture.
Therefore, it was a bit far from downtown Dongjin, taking over an hour by car. However, chatting in the car kept everyone from getting bored.
Dongjin was divided into 23 wards. The Aman Hotel that Su Yang had booked for everyone was located in Qiandaitian Ward, one of the three core wards of the city—the true city center.
It was currently 3:30 PM. The two black Alphards drove quickly, one behind the other, along a straight country road.
In the second car, Su Yang sat in the passenger seat and struck up a conversation with the driver, a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.
"How should I address you, uncle?" Su Yang turned his head and asked.
Hearing the handsome young man beside him speak fluent Islandese, the man looked surprised. "Oh, handsome, you speak Islandese?"
Su Yang nodded and smiled. "A little bit."
"That's impressive. I can't hear an accent at all. I thought a local was talking to me, haha."
"Oh, right, my name is Katsumura Yota. What's your name, little brother?"
"My name is Su Yang. I also have the character 'Yang' in my name."
"Hahaha, little brother, you guys are here from China for a vacation, right?"
"Yes, it's our first time here. So I wanted to ask if you could recommend any good food or fun places in Dongjin?"
"There are so many. Let me think. For food, you can try sushi, as well as tempura, eel rice, crepes, and things like that. Oh my, there's just too much. My mouth is watering just talking about it."
"Hahaha, Uncle Yota, you're quite humorous."
"Is that so? A lot of people say I'm funny."
Watching the two in the front row talking and laughing, the people in the back couldn't understand a single word.
Meng Qianyu leaned forward against the seat and asked, "Brother Su Yang, what are you guys talking about?"
"Oh, I'm asking this uncle what's good to eat in Dongjin. We'll go eat tonight."
"That sounds great! But Brother Su Yang, how is your Islandese so good? When did you learn it?"
"I didn't really study it much. How should I put it? Actually, I'm a bit of a language genius. I know a little bit of every language."
"Really? That's amazing."
"It's alright, just passable."
At this time, Lu Yun smiled and said, "Su Yang, why don't you also ask what fun places there are in Dongjin?"
"Sure." Su Yang smiled, turned his head, and continued chatting with the driver uncle.
Amidst the cheerful laughter, an hour quickly passed, and the two cars finally entered the Qiandaitian Ward of Dongjin.
To be honest, downtown Dongjin was indeed very bustling. Various high-rise buildings stood close together. On the streets, apart from the locals, there were also many foreign faces from all over the world who had come to travel or work, visible everywhere.
This city also gave people a vibrant and energetic feeling.
Of course, in terms of prosperity, the Magic City was also very strong. Although its economic strength was slightly lower, it was very close.
Both cities belonged to the top-ranked international metropolises in the world. They each had their own characteristics and were both incredible.
As everyone admired the city scenery outside the window, the cars soon arrived at the bottom of a skyscraper. According to the driver uncle, this building was called Otemachi Tower. It had 38 floors in total and was a comprehensive building integrating hotel, office, entertainment, and commercial facilities.
The Aman Tokyo Hotel that Su Yang had booked was located at the very top of this building, spanning the 33rd to 38th floors.
The two cars parked by the road one behind the other. The driver uncle got out first to help everyone with their luggage.
After getting their things, the beautiful Shoko Honma led the group into the building.
Everyone took the elevator and quickly went up to the 33rd floor. The elevator doors opened, and the lobby of the Aman Dongjin Hotel, known as a castle in the sky, appeared before their eyes.
Worthy of being a top luxury hotel, the lobby was built in a very lavish and magnificent manner.
The ceiling in the center of the lobby was designed with the Island Nation's signature paper lanterns as a reference element. It had a ceiling height of nearly 30 meters. Sunlight poured through the white lanterns into the lobby, creating an interplay of light and shadow.
In addition to the lobby, the 33rd floor of the hotel also had a massive comprehensive restaurant. Here, you could eat various cuisines from around the world, such as Island Nation cuisine, Italian, Chinese, and French. Of course, a bar was also indispensable.
The 34th floor of the hotel was the leisure area, featuring a spa, a gym, and a 30-meter-long infinity pool. Floors 35 to 38 were the guest room areas.
After entering the lobby, everyone took a brief look around before heading to the front desk to check in.
The appearance of the staff at top luxury hotels was on a different level—extremely high. Judging by a scoring system, either of the two girls currently at the front desk was at least an 80 to 85 out of 100.
Liu Bo glanced over and whispered beside Su Yang, "Damn, these two girls are so kawaii, Brother Yang!!"
Su Yang smiled and said, "Do you like them?"
"I do."
"Then how about I help you get their contact info?"
"Could you?"
"Heh, could I my ass. If you want it, go get it yourself."
"Fuck, are we brothers or what? I don't speak the language, otherwise I definitely would have gone for it."
"Why are you in such a rush? We've only been here for a little while and you've already got your eyes on three girls. You like every single one."
"That's easy for you to say. You're surrounded by beauties, and now Brother Meng also has a great beauty following him every day. What about me? I'm just a lone orphan. I'm envious! It hurts!"
"Ah, don't rush, don't rush. I took a close look on the way here, and the girls in Dongjin seem to look pretty good. There will be plenty of opportunities."
"Alright then, we'll talk about it tonight."
"Yeah, let's check in first."
Su Yang walked up to the front desk, looked at one of the girls in front of him, and smiled. "Konnichiwa, beautiful. Please help us check in."
"Alright, sir."
A few minutes later, the check-in process was complete. Everyone dragged their suitcases and followed two private hotel butlers toward the elevator lobby.
The double suites were located on the 37th floor. The elevator doors quickly opened, and one of the private butlers reached out to hold the door, allowing Su Yang and the others to step out first.
Then, the two butlers introduced some of the hotel's features to everyone in Chinese. Soon, they arrived at the guest room doors.
Everyone's room types were the same, so they were basically all next to each other. The hotel rooms were named after traditional island-style elements, namely Hotaru (Firefly), Kaede (Maple), Nara (Oak), and Susuki (Pampas Grass).
The deluxe double suites were named Kaede, followed by a number. Su Yang and Pan Ning's room was Kaede 07, and the others were not far away.
"Let's all go back to our rooms and rest for a bit. Just let us know in the group chat when you're ready to head out," Meng Wenzhou said.
"OK. Time was tight this morning, so I didn't have time to properly groom myself. I'm going to take a shower and change into a handsome outfit now, so I can really have fun tonight," Liu Bo said with a smile as he walked into his room.
After sending the two private butlers away, the others also entered their rooms one after another.
On Su Yang's side, after Pan Ning entered the room, she followed her usual routine of opening her suitcase, taking out her makeup bag and toiletries, and putting them away before going to the bathroom.
Su Yang, on the other hand, walked over to the oversized floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, lit a cigarette, and admired the city view outside.
A few minutes later, Pan Ning walked out of the bathroom. She looked at Su Yang and asked, "Did you book this hotel for one day or two?"
"I only booked it for one day for now, but I think we might have to extend it for another day."
"I think so too. We definitely won't be staying for just one day. I'll extend it when we go out later."
"No need, I'll do it. You just focus on having a good time, you know? To put it plainly."
Pan Ning rolled her eyes. "Where do you learn all these weird phrases every day?"
"Haha, I've been watching A-Gao's stream lately. I love telling the truth!"
"I don't get it," Pan Ning said, shaking her head as she walked over to the sofa and sat down.
Seeing this, Su Yang put out his cigarette and jogged over to Pan Ning's side. "How about we take advantage of this time..."
Before Su Yang could finish, Pan Ning unlocked her phone and said indifferently, "No, there's not enough time. I don't like the feeling of being interrupted halfway through."

【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer!

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!

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.
