Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies Chapter 107
Advertisement
Walking the vast and brilliant streets of Star Night Royal City, Yan Zaizen couldn't help but be lost in his thoughts. Earlier, Xin Guanyu approached him with vigor and dominance but didn't ask or do anything. Simply granted him entry.
It was truly odd.
Tao and Bai Lufeng was also a little confused by the events expecting something grand and epic to occur, but was left quite deflated. Regardless, since no issues occurred, they went along with their respective tasks. Tao had left for the Earthly Fortune Palace's Emporium to sell all their loose materials and to purchase other useful things such as a skyship, if possible.
Bai Lufeng left to get an assigned time to use the continental spatial platform. Typically, spatial platforms would have specific days to be used to travel to specific places. This was all worked out from behind the scenes by the owners' desire. Any outside use was generally considered an act of war. This situation was quite similar to the Xuanwu City spatial platform being used only once a year. However, that was only once a year to be sent outwards. They received many from other spatial platforms on varied days from many different locations.
A large reason for this was resources required for each use of the platform. Xuanwu City simply didn't have the materials or wealth to keep it functioning year round. Same could be said for a continental spatial platform in this city.
As for Yan Zaizen, he didn't really have anything to do, but his experience in cities was just far too little. He decided to sightsee. However, the events from before simply took too much of his attention. He had a distinct feeling that this Xin Guanyu will be incredibly important or had a scheme set up that would involve him, perhaps with malicious intentions.
If so…
His eyes flickered with an intense murderous light.

He'll kill all!
"Liar! Liar! Liar!" The voice of a young woman resounded in the surroundings, causing all bystanders to look with intrigued interest. Even Yan Zaizen was attracted as he looked to see a beautiful, jadelike woman with a voluptuous figure that was tantalizing to all men. An average-looking young man, with an elegant white martial attire, a longsword brandished on his hip, and an aura like a sheathed blade was in front of her.
Currently, he had an expression that was ugly to the extreme, between crying and laughing, trying to lower the woman's accusations with every word. However, he failed with each attempt causing her to be further infuriated.
"Lovers' spat?" Yan Zaizen chuckled inwardly, his eyes filled with amusement. He took the role of a bystander. Not many would know this, but Yan Zaizen loved drama! He enjoyed reading books about heroes and warriors traveling the world overcoming countless trials and tribulations, but also those love-crazed men and women who lived and breathed for their spouses.
He always imagined his mother and father were similar to those in their youths. The struggles, the laughs, and the 'awwws' from their heartfelt moments. It all truly got to him.
The young man looked around as if hoping to grasp at straws for survival, and caught the sight of a handsomely brilliant young man with a violet martial attire, amber-gold eyes filled with brilliant lifeforce, a stable posture and glorious physique. His eyes flickered with disbelief but then suffused with intense excitement.
As Yan Zaizen cultivated the Immortal Herculean Method, his appearance was becoming more and more profoundly attractive. His originally amber-eyes which were once his favorite features were upgraded to amber-gold. This very feature also made him stand out in a crowd greatly, including his profound aura. If Yan Zaizen had been aware of his surroundings, he would've noticed many females and males alike looking his way in intrigue and appraisal.

In truth, this type of observation happened everywhere he went. However, he just ignored it subconsciously. Due to the trauma from his youth, he avoided looking at people who appraised him or stared at him. If he did notice, he would be parading the streets with a heroic expression filled with loftiness to muster more eyes of admiration.
The young man dashed towards Yan Zaizen with steady steps, the young woman surprised but followed behind, her eyes filled with suspicion.
"Brother! Why did you take so long?!" The young man, Sun Huan, slithered his way to Yan Zaizen side, wrapping his arm snuggly around Yan Zaizen's shoulder. Initially, Yan Zaizen was going to react violently to this sudden breach of personal space, but he was intrigued. He restrained himself and waited for this to play out.
Seeing Yan Zaizen not fight back, the young man's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Brother? Who's your brother?!" The young woman approached with eyes filled with suspicion. However, when she looked at Yan Zaizen's appearance, she felt odd. Her heart thumped slightly, and she felt slightly guilty. She turned her gaze away towards Sun Haun, hiding her emotions.
"This is the person I was waiting for! I told you! I'm not waiting for some other woman." Sun Huan said, using one more method to try to pacify her anger. However, she was still skeptical, but didn't wish to say anything cause of Yan Zaizen's extraordinary appearance. It was highly likely he was someone profoundly important, and she didn't wish to feel dumb by saying careless words.
"Right? Brother?" Sun Huan's gaze seared through Yan Zaizen with helplessness.
Inwardly, Yan Zaizen was chuckling like a maniac. This person was trying to get out of being caught cheating on his woman. This young lady had a figure so voluptuously delicious that many wouldn't even think of cheating on her, but this average-looking swordsman had such balls.
Yan Zaizen was just about to denounce it all and let it blow up in Sun Haun's face, perhaps snicker to the side as he watched the drama unfold, but a light glowed on the young woman's finger. A talisman transmission was received.
After looking at it, her expression shifted to deep urgency, looking at Sun Huan and Yan Zaizen with a little bit of anger, but didn't pursue further. "Sun Huan, if I find you with another woman! I swear!" She threatened before utilizing a movement art to take off. The bystanders were disappointed, returning to their daily routine, but Yan Zaizen was even more disappointed.
"He truly got out of this one…" He commented silently.
"Whew! I truly got out of that one!" Sun Huan said, patting Yan Zaizen on the back in good work. He was almost sure this bystander would ruin his façade, but it seemed the heavens were on his side. Thinking a bit, he felt like he owed this bystander a bit for his silence. It was similar to how when one asks for information, they should repay for such information. If someone helps, they should receive help or reward in return.
"I must thank you, uh...guy. My name's Sun Huan, how about I take you to eat at a great restaurant with the most extraordinary youths of this generation?!" His words were filled with excitement, but it didn't seem like he was actually excited. It was more like he was trying to sell Yan Zaizen something with a false belief in his product.
However, Yan Zaizen only heard two words from that sentence.
Free food!
"DEAL!"

My Isekai
For those not familiar with the isekai genera, this story is about a man waking up in an unknown world. The story follows his journey and life in this world, which does not only look different on the surface, but the common norms and values of this world are very alien to the modern western mindset. How will this average western person respond to such a world, and how will it change him. For those familiar with isekai, this is a western take on a predominantly Japanese story format. It draws a lot of inspiration from Japanese isekai, but it also tries to tackle a lot of tropes that might be annoying to the western mindset. The story is not written for young boys as the story tries to take a mature take on some typical clichés and assumptions made by both the typical writer and reader of the genera.
