"Here is your seat." The woman gestured to show Yuan his table.

"Thanks."

He was closer to the walls than the stage in the center of the room, but he was still able to have a clear view of the woman on the stage.

The woman then said, "If you wish to have a meal while you enjoy the show, this is the menu. If this is your first time at our establishment, you should know that we charge an extra fee for every thirty minutes that you stay here. The price will also be on the menu."

And she continued, "There’s also the option to rent a private room and hire one of our experts to give you a private performance if you’re interested."

After the brief introduction, the woman left him alone and returned to the entrance of the building to welcome the next guest.

Yuan looked around the room and thought to himself, ’Since he’s from a renowned family, he will most likely have a private room.’

He proceeded to use his divine sense to inspect every individual within the building to find Liang Xiaosheng. However, he couldn’t find anyone that fit the description given to him by Dong Ye, and the strongest cultivator there was only a Spirit Lord.

’According to Dong Ye, he shows up to this place almost every day. Since he’s not here right now, let’s just enjoy the show for now.’

Yuan opened the menu and proceeded to order a dozen dishes without hesitation.

While he waited for his order, Yuan looked at the second menu, where he could hire one of their musicians.

There were over fifty musicians on the roster at a glance with 90 percent of them being women.

Everyone had a different price with the most expensive one to hire being 20 times more expensive than the second most expensive musician.

’Li Luoyang... 100 spirit stones an hour...’ Yuan’s eyes widened at the extraordinary price tag.

He personally cannot imagine spending so much money on an hour of music.

Once he was finished with the menus, Yuan turned his focus to the woman performing on the stage, mostly to her slender fingers and the way they played the zither.

Before he realized it, the music had put him into a trance-like state.

In the midst of his daze, an image suddenly flashed inside his head a piece of memory that he did not recognize.

’That was...’

In that fleeting memory, he witnessed a beautiful young woman playing the zither on a stage, yet the surroundings and the musician on the stage were somewhat different. Even though the memory flashed for less than a second, Yuan unmistakably identified the person on the stage as the Zither Goddess.

’That was definitely the Zither Goddess, albeit a little younger than what I remember. Why did she appear inside my head just now?’ he wondered.

"Thank you for the wait. Here is your food." A server showed up with his food shortly after.

Shortly after Yuan began eating his food, another image flashed inside his head. This time, he was sitting before a table filled to the brim with food, but there was another individual there, sitting right beside him with an innocent smile on her face.

’Zither Goddess...?’

Once again, the Zither Goddess has appeared before him in his memories.

’Whose memories are these? If it’s the Zither Goddess, perhaps Tian Kai? But why are they surfacing now?’

As Yuan pondered the implications of these memories, a voice resounded throughout the first floor.

"This is a notice to all patrons. Fairy Li Luoyang will be performing in thirty minutes, and for the next 60 minutes, the 30-minute fee will be raised to 10 spirit stones per person."

"She’s finally here! I’ve waited all month for this moment!"

"I barely managed to save up 20 spirit stones for her!"

Despite the exorbitant price tag, nobody in the establishment voiced complaints; on the contrary, many of them seemed exhilarated, their faces brimming with anticipation. Witnessing the excitement of those around him, Yuan also felt a rising sense of anticipation.

Fifteen minutes later, Yuan noticed a particular individual entering the establishment, emanating the aura of a peak Spirit King.

He had mostly black hair with several strands of blue hair, and he had black eyes, looking vastly different than the Azure Dragon Family he’d encountered in the Ancient Dragon City. Furthermore, he barely exuded the aura of a dragon.

’He’s finally here... Liang Xiaosheng.’

Despite being an ex-patriarch, Liang Xiaosheng did not look any older than 40.

Yuan began pondering how he should approach Liang Xiaosheng.

Finally, the woman who had been playing music for the past hour concluded her performance and vacated the stage. A few moments later, the lights on the first floor abruptly dimmed.

Suddenly, the sound of a zither echoed through the establishment, this time producing a few random notes.

The very next moment, a figure materialized on the stage as if by spectral magic. She was a tall beauty adorned in a pink outfit that accentuated her generous curves.

"Hello, everyone." The woman greeted as she took a seat on the stage, placing a black zither on her legs.

"My name is Li Luoyang, and I will be entertaining you for the next hour."

The entire place erupted with excitement with everyone cheering loudly for her.

"Fairy Li! You’re as beautiful as ever!"

"I love you, Fairy Li!"

While everyone was charmed by her beauty and elegance, Yuan was paying attention to something else.

’Third level Spirit King? Her cultivation is quite impressive for a musician in this place.’

He hadn’t anticipated the musician to be a cultivation expert, but it explained her high fees.

"Today, I will be performing a special piece one that was passed down to me by my master three hundred years ago. It’s called ’The Old Dream,’" Li Luoyang announced.

"The Old Dream?" Yuan mumbled, sensing an odd sense of familiarity with the name.
