Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 358 - An Appetite To Shock The Masses

Chapter 358 - An Appet.i.te To Shock The Ma.s.ses

The three men, Wu Hei, Wu Teng, and Lord Cai were currently sitting with their eyes wide open, staring at the ridiculous thing that was happening in front of them.

The servants and Courtesans had grown tired of going back and forth bring trays upon trays of food. But it was not because everyone was enjoying it a lot. But rather because of the monstrous appet.i.te of the person sitting there.

At first, everything had been normal, and they had finished their first round of food. Lord Cai noticed that Lin Mu had enjoyed it a lot and asked him if he wanted more. Lin Mu's eyes lit up upon hearing that, and he straightway answered yes.

More food was brought for him and he finished it all in five minutes. This was when they noticed the anomaly that was Lin Mu. After finis.h.i.+ng it all, he looked up at Lord Cai and asked if he could have even more. Lord Cai didn't know what to say, except that he could have as much as he wanted.

After all, this was a banquet organized by him. What face would he have left, if he was not even able to satisfy the appet.i.te of one guest properly? It wasn't really a problem for the Alluring wisteria pavilion to prepare such kind of food for a few hundred people, thus he did not mind at all.

Even Wu Teng was someone who ate a lot of food, but he was shocked by this too. He even praised Lin Mu's appet.i.te and told him he ate like a true warrior.

Dishes upon dishes were brought; there were entire roasted pigs, fried chicken, steamed fish, stewed vegetables and various fruit juices. Yet Lin Mu was able to fit them down in his stomach with ease. The people there could do nothing but simply watch him eat.

It was now that a rather large cow beast was brought. The portions had been cut into large steaks that were stacked on top of each other. Each slab had bones attached to them, which were left there to enhance the flavor of the meat.

Lin Mu picked some of these steaks and started eating them. But then Lord Cai noticed something. Seeing that Lin Mu was about to bite into a bone, he suddenly spoke.

"Lord Mu Lin, watch out! That's a…" but before he could finish his sentence, a sound was heard.

~CRUNCH~

~Gulp~

"Hmm? You said something?" Lin Mu asked, oblivious to his actions.

"Uhh… no, nothing. Please continue." Lord Cai spoke with difficulty.

Seeing that Lin Mu was totally fine, Lord Cai didn't know what to say. He had heard of people chewing on bones before for flavor, but they would spit them out. Lin Mu was was snapping them in his mouth as if they were crispy fried dough sticks.

"Sister is he… eating a bone?" A courtesan whispered to another, feeling amazed at this scene.

"Looks like it… but I don't know how it's possible…" The other courtesan muttered in response.

Another ten minutes pa.s.sed and by now Lin Mu had eaten enough food that was enough to feed about thirty people easily. Even Wu Hei was left speechless at this and didn't know what to think of it. This simply did not make sense to him.

He scanned Lin Mu from top to bottom and found him to be completely normal. If someone else had eaten even ten percent of the amount of food that Lin Mu had eaten, their belly would have definitely been bulging out. But looking at Lin Mu, no such thing could be seen.

It was as if his stomach was an endless void that only kept on sucking more and more of the food in it.

"Lin Mu, stop! This is enough! At this point, everyone will suspicious of you!" Xukong shouted in Lin Mu's mind.

Lin Mu snapped out of his mechanical actions and his focus returned to him. While he was eating he had entered a strange kind of state and was fully focused on absorbing the spirit qi and vital energy that was slowly being released from the food in his stomach.

Because of this, he barely paid any attention to his surroundings. Lin Mu realized this and was a bit scared.

"This was strange… what exactly happened to me?" Lin Mu questioned Xukong.

"I don't know either. But from the looks of it, seems like we found another side effect of the nameless technique of the lost immortal. You lose sense of your surroundings when you have a large amount of food with you." Xukong explained.

"I understand senior. I'll take a note of it and think of a solution to it." Lin Mu replied.

~Phew~

Seeing that Lin Mu had finally stopped eating, everyone took a breath of relief. They didn't know why, but the more they saw him eat the more uncomfortable they got. They even felt as if he would keep on eating till they ran out of all food and if he was still not satisfied then they would be the next ones to be eaten.

The servants quickly took away the empty and dirtied dishes, and the table was replaced. They were originally going to discuss a few things while having a meal, but Lin Mu's actions were something that they could not ignore and simply stared at him eat.

"Now that our meal is done, I believe we can have a nice conversation…" Lord Cai spoke, trying to dissipate the awkward silence.

"Ah yes, of course. Pardon my manners." Lin Mu said, seeing that Lord Cai was taking the initiative. He looked at Wu Teng and asked, "brother Teng, how are the marriage preparations coming along? I've been waiting for it too and wanted to see all the ceremonies that have been planned."

~Sigh~

"Oh, yeah… the marriage." Wu Teng said with a sigh, almost as if he was unwilling to do this. "The preparations are coming along fine and mother had decided that we will have the official ceremony in five days." He continued.
