Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057 Savored Moments
Clark proceeded towards the heart of Heavenly Immortal City, his steps quickening as the drab, lifeless streets gradually transformed into a vibrant tableau of prosperity and activity.
Mortals and cultivators mingled harmoniously, their lives seemingly blessed by the careful governance of those in power.
The city exuded an aura of wealth and tranquility, a testament to its efficient administration and the influence of its esteemed leaders.
Upon reaching a quaint yet elegant storefront, Clark expressed his desire for opulent accommodations. "I seek something grand and lavish. Money is of no concern," he asserted confidently. The proprietor, a shrewd individual well-versed in catering to the city’s elite, immediately understood Clark’s needs.
By day’s end, Clark found himself standing in a vast, secluded courtyard, surrounded by serene gardens and ornate architecture.
The solitude was palpable, yet comforting—here, amidst the tranquil beauty, he could exist without the burdens of others’ expectations or the complexities of shared karma.
Alone in his expansive sanctuary, Clark relished the freedom to live purely in the present moment. With no responsibilities tying him down, he immersed himself in the simple joys of contemplation and leisure.
The courtyard, a sanctuary of peace amidst the bustling city, became his haven—a place where he could indulge in the luxury of solitude, undisturbed by the outside world.
As twilight descended over Heavenly Immortal City, casting a soft glow upon the intricate lattice work and fragrant blossoms that adorned his courtyard, Clark knew he had found a rare refuge.
Here, in this secluded oasis, he could truly embrace the essence of life and savor each moment without reservation.
That night, he drifted off into a deep slumber, his senses dulled by the variety of wines he had indulged in.
The following morning, he resumed his routine of drinking from the early hours until well past midnight, continuing this pattern day after day for a full week until his private cellar lay empty.
"Happy times never really last for long," Clark mused wryly as he awoke to the stark realization that his supply of wines had finally been exhausted.
With a resigned smile, he decided to venture out into the bustling city streets, seeking distraction from his depleted spirits.
As he wandered through the lively avenues, he stumbled upon a renowned establishment known as the Eternal Feast Menu.
Its reputation preceded it—a sanctuary for culinary delights that promised an unforgettable dining experience.
"Welcome, honored guest! Please, allow us to serve you," chimed the waitstaff, a skilled cadre of cultivators in their own right, each possessing a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for the finer aspects of life.
They immediately recognized Clark’s opulent attire—a telltale sign of wealth and status in their discerning eyes.
Despite their abilities to perceive beyond the mundane, they refrained from probing into Clark’s background out of respect for his privacy—a gesture that spoke volumes about their professionalism and courtesy.
Instead, they focused on ensuring his comfort and enjoyment, guiding him to a plush corner table adorned with fresh flowers and softly flickering candles.
Clark settled into his seat, savoring the ambiance of the restaurant—a harmonious blend of elegant decor and the gentle hum of contented diners.
The menu, an exquisite array of dishes crafted with meticulous care, beckoned him to explore its offerings, promising a journey through flavors both familiar and exotic.
DING! The sudden intrusion of spiritual and divine senses set upon him like a storm, probing relentlessly into the mystery that surrounded him.
While such invasive scrutiny might have offended a lesser man, Clark remained unfazed.
With a calm demeanor, he brushed off the probing gazes and ethereal whispers that sought to unravel his identity, causing a ripple of curiosity among the patrons around him.
In this renowned sanctuary of culinary excellence, where the air was thick with the aroma of delicacies and the whispers of discerning diners, Clark’s presence was an anomaly.
His attire, resplendent in its opulence, drew initial glances of intrigue. Yet, it was his aura—both handsome and mysterious—that held the attention of those who dared to look beyond the surface.
It soon became apparent that Clark was unlike any other guest they had encountered. He appeared wholly mortal, untouched by the esoteric arts of cultivation that were a mark of status and power in this realm.
To the astonishment of many, he navigated the restaurant’s luxurious ambiance with the ease of someone accustomed to such surroundings, despite the unspoken rule that only the enlightened and affluent could afford its offerings.
As the minutes ticked by, the patrons couldn’t help but speculate about Clark’s origins and intentions.
Some whispered among themselves, while others stole curious glances in his direction, trying to decipher the enigma seated amidst them.
The boldest among them, a young man of striking appearance and evident wealth, finally gathered the courage to approach Clark’s table.
"Forgive my curiosity, but I couldn’t help but wonder about..." he began, his voice laced with a mixture of intrigue and respect.
"I’m busy right now. Come again another day," Clark cut him off abruptly, his tone carrying a hint of disdain as he refused to engage further.
He turned his attention back to the intricate menu before him, leaving the young man standing awkwardly beside his table, uncertain how to respond to such blunt dismissal.
Undeterred by Clark’s cool demeanor, the patrons continued to observe him discreetly, intrigued by the mystery he embodied.
Each passing moment only deepened their fascination with the man who defied their expectations, sparking whispered conversations and lingering glances that spoke of both admiration and intrigue.
The young man, known for his charm and the formidable backing of his influential clan, stood momentarily taken aback by Clark’s nonchalant dismissal.
In a city where his family name commanded respect and where he had grown accustomed to deference, Clark’s indifference was a rare and stinging rebuke.
The murmurs of the city knew him well—his lineage traced through generations of power and prestige.
From his early years, he had been groomed to uphold the honor and authority of his clan, navigating the intricate web of social expectations with practiced ease.
Yet, in this moment, faced with Clark’s unyielding disregard, he felt an unfamiliar pang of frustration and wounded pride.
