They've arrived, and they've even queued for such a long time; this definitely warrants a thorough study.

As he spoke, Zhao Buzhu took a bite himself; seeing this, the fat shopkeeper beside him promptly followed suit.

A big bowl of food was polished off by the two in just a few bites.

But after looking at the long queue, they decided to forget it; by the time it's their turn, it'll probably be dinner.

After personally tasting it, at this moment no words are needed; Zhao Buzhu and the fat shopkeeper now know exactly where their Prison Immortal Tower fell short.

All they saw was Zhao Buzhu speaking with a strange expression.

"Do you know where we lost?"

"Yes, Family Head."
