Chapter 2742: It’s Not That They Don’t Want to Leave, It’s That They Can’t!
Until he was full and had enough to drink, Carson Flores never asked about the female immortals. Instead, he just chatted idly, sharing some amusing experiences he had been through,
and Zorvyn Harrison listened attentively. Not only her, but Carson also noticed that several female immortals nearby were all ears.
They are quite interested in the world outside!
It’s not that they don’t want to leave; it’s that they can’t!
They were trained on Immortal Gathering Island to entice with their charms, so how could the island let them leave?
In the great hall, after the guests had their fill, they would leave with a maiden accompanying them to their place of lodging.
During the following time, guests could enjoy at any time the delicacies and immortal wine provided by Immortal Gathering Island, accompanied by beautiful women, experiencing a blissful, heavenly life.
After eating his fill, Carson also did not linger and left the great hall with Zorvyn.
Zorvyn led Carson along the way, eventually reaching a secluded, elegantly environment single dwelling on the mountainside.
Carson looked around, smiling: "Your Immortal Gathering Island is really generous, preparing such a house for each guest to rest. I thought all the guests would lodge like an inn, in adjacent rooms."
Zorvyn opened the door and softly replied, "This is my residence."
Carson turned his head in surprise: "Your residence?"
Zorvyn nodded, her gaze slightly lowered: "Each of us maidens has our own private place. Every guest is taken back to her residence by the maiden who selected them..."
Zorvyn hadn’t finished speaking, but Carson already understood.
Immortal Gathering Island is indeed something!
They trained so many female immortals to serve the guests attending the Gathering Immortals Assembly, each being taken back to their residences, which is pretty obvious in its intentions.
These maidens offer comprehensive companionship, accompanying for meals, drinks, entertainment, sleep, in short, keeping the guests amused and satisfied!
Carson understood this but kept a face of ignorance, smiling: "A standalone villa, picturesque scenery, and quite a distance between villas—nice conditions."
Upon entering the house, just as Zorvyn was about to lead Carson to the master bedroom — her own bedroom — Carson spoke up: "Where’s the guest room? I see you have more than one room here. I’d like a room with a good view and ventilation... Can I choose?"
Zorvyn looked at Carson, softly saying: "Young Master, you may choose any room here. If you’re looking for the best view and ventilation, the room I used to sleep in is quite good..."
Carson pretended not to understand the underlying meaning in Zorvyn’s words, laughing: "A gentleman doesn’t covet others’ preferences; a guest room will do."
Zorvyn blinked: "Young Master, please follow me."
Carson followed Zorvyn to the guest room opposite the master room. Entering the room, he looked around, smiling: "This room is nice, I’ll stay here."
"Yes, Young Master, I will prepare the necessary items for you."
"Alright, thank you!"
After settling in the room, Carson smiled: "Drank too much wine, feeling a bit dizzy. I’ll take a nap first."
Zorvyn replied: "Okay, Young Master, just call if you need anything."
"Alright, you should also go rest."
Carson sent Zorvyn away, closed the door, and then lay down on the bed.
Having entered Immortal Gathering Island, drank a bout of wine, and found out some things left him with a somewhat negative impression of the island.
Which righteous immortal sect would train a lot of female immortals to lure with their beauty, absorbing talents to join through such means?
What Zephyra said about contractual cooperation sounded good on the surface, but Carson dared not fully trust it now.
Perhaps the only good news is what Zephyra mentioned about Immortal Gathering Island possessing a Top Tier Martial Art of Metal Attribute!
This matter can be checked with Zorvyn later; she’s lived here long enough that she should know.
After resting for a while and absorbing the wonderful effects of all the immortal wine and delicacies, Carson became invigorated again and then left the room.
No need for Carson to call; Zorvyn had already opened the door from the master bedroom and came out.
"Young Master, have you rested well?"
Carson casually smiled: "My last name is Lin, and my given name is Kaelen. Just call me by my name..."
Zorvyn shook her head: "That’s not acceptable. We must treat guests politely, or else they’ll think the people of Immortal Gathering Island are rude and inconsiderate."
Carson had no choice but to let it be: "Take me for a stroll."
"Alright, Young Master, please!"
Zorvyn led Carson away from the residence, asking: "Young Master Flores, where would you like to go?"
Carson smiled: "Anywhere, you decide. I’m just bored, just strolling around. I can’t just sober up and immediately get drunk again, can I? While the immortal wine is good, one shouldn’t indulge."
Zorvyn smiled: "Then I’ll take you for a tour around here; there are a few places where the scenery is worth seeing."
Carson casually asked: "Don’t the people of Immortal Gathering Island live here?"
Zorvyn shook her head: "This is the venue for the Gathering Immortals Assembly. All the structures and people here exist for the Gathering; it’s only used once every five hundred years. The real disciples of Immortal Gathering Island live in the north, thousands of miles from here..."
