Chapter 90: Can’t You Just Stay In My Room?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“For the time being, please stay in Lanfang Garden in the City Lord’s Mansion. It’s my private Manor, and it’s quiet and undisturbed. I’ll arrange for the improvement and opening of the Ten Thousand Sword Array as soon as possible.
Duan Lanruo maintained her smile.
Ye Cike nodded. “I’ve brought a few top array masters with me. Let’s see if they can help. I hope they can speed up the process so that he doesn’t have the chance to use that sacred art.”
Duan Lanruo continued to smile. “That’s only natural. If Young Mistress is free, you can also take a look at the upcoming Tideviewing and Sword-listening conference, or go to the Sword Pavilion’s Jade Snow mountain path to take a look. I can accompany you and do my part as a host.”
Ye Cike was not interested in these things, but she still had to put on a show. She nodded and agreed. With Xiu’er’s careful help, she lifted her skirt and stood up, walking out of the door.
Duan Lanruo watched as the horse carriage gradually left.
Her gaze once again fell on the white paper on the table. Her expression softened and relaxed, and she revealed a gentle smile.
In the past few years, the City Lord had too many things to do, but once she was free, she could not help but miss him.
Even when her daughter Duan Lian occasionally came back and looked at her face, which was 70 percent similar to hers but more beautiful, she could not help but wonder if he could keep him if she betrothed her daughter to him. At least, they could talk face to face without avoiding the eyes of the secular world and not sneak around.
Duan Lanruo came back to her senses and pinched her slightly burning ears. Her beautiful face was blushed faintly, and she scolded herself for letting her imagination run wild in her heart.
But her heart was still pounding.
She coughed twice, reached out to put away the paper on the table, and muttered, “Ah Yue, a guard has just reported that the Xuanyin family’s caravan has suddenly stopped at the city gate because of the disturbance caused by the sudden cutting of the queue. They want everyone to come forward to receive the spirit stones as compensation? ”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yes.” The woman with the half-wooden mask who had reported earlier walked out of the darkness, half-kneeling on the ground and lowering her head.
Duan Lanruo’s lips curled up. “Do the people of the Xuanyin family really have the leisure to pay attention to what those people are thinking?”
She stood up. Her loose clothes were a little wrinkled, revealing her white and plump chest. She asked and answered her own question in a self-mocking manner, “I’m afraid not,”
The eyes of the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords seemed to be able to see through everything. She calmly ordered, “Give me a copy of the entry records of all the people who entered the city at that time, including their appearance and information on their tokens. Focus on those fake identities that were applied through legal channels.”
“Yes.” The hidden guard named Ah Yue responded and disappeared into the darkness.
No one knew more about the City of Ten Thousand Swords’ rules and layout than she did. This was her home ground, and since her people had already taken the initiative to come here, how could she let others take it away from her?
Duan Lanruo narrowed her eyes and licked her lips with the tip of her tongue. She smiled like a fox.
…
At this moment, Liu Yuan, who did not know that the two women had already ‘reached an agreement’, was preparing to accept a mission at Yuelai Inn.
Yuelai Inn was a large chain store in various wuxia s and TV series.
Regardless of whether Immortal cultivators or martial artists liked it or not, players quite liked to go to Yuelai Inn. This place was also a place for strange encounters. It would refresh randomly every week, and they would always meet many different NPCs.
This included the special NPC who had added the condition of the green mist. There was also a chance of respawning at the inn. There were also some traveling merchants who provided special shops that could buy many interesting items.
However, Yuelai Inn could only be found in the maps of large cities. Small towns like Xichang Town did not have the basic facilities, so it was natural that they could not support the existence of a large inn.
Liu Yuan looked around at the Immortal cultivators sitting in the hall. Most of them were at the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment stage. They were mainly teenagers and were divided into small circles. Other than that, there were some secular Jianghu people.
As mentioned before, the strength of the secular Jianghu people in Shangyang also rose with the Xianxia background. Before the Core Formation stage, martial artists could rely on their martial arts to fight against Immortal cultivators, but they had to be the best of the best. Ordinary people could be dealt with by Immortal cultivators with a few spells.
The majority of the people living in the City of Ten Thousand Swords were ordinary people. The Immortal cultivators had recently arrived because of the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event.
The difference between the two sides of the inn was still very obvious. The left side was basically filled with cultivators, while the right side was basically filled with swordsmen.
However, in Liu Yuan’s eyes, there was not much difference between the two sides. They were all noobs. After all, those with status and strength had all gone to the Qingping Residence that the gatekeeper had mentioned. Why would they come to the Yuelai Inn?
Other than runaways like him and people like Cui Ting who inspired the people to wake up their numb consciousness.
Liu Yuan did not attract any attention when he walked into the inn. During the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event, the inn was full. There were a few people who followed him in. At most, they would look at him for a while before looking away.
Beside him, Cui Ting naturally restrained his aura. This noob at the Void Refinement stage wanted to hide himself, so no one in the inn could see through him.
The lady boss looked to be in her thirties. Her hair was combed into a woman’s bun, and her face was fair. There was a mole at the corner of her mouth, and she had a good figure. She wore a long red dress and a lotus-colored jacket. She held a pipe in her hand and leaned against the counter with her graceful figure. She was charming and could be considered the focus of the audience.
At this moment, she was dealing with a few cultivators who wanted to stay in a hotel. Picking her pale red fingernails, she said slowly, “Guests, I’ve already said that there are no more rooms, so you can only stay on the shared bed on the first floor. Please don’t be so unreasonable. Your actions are very troubling.”
One of the young Immortal cultivators was unconvinced and said, “If there’s no upper room, then don’t tell me there’s no ordinary room? Why are you asking us to get the sh*ttiest beds? Are we going to be squeezed together with the mortals?”
The others chimed in a few times.
The lady boss laughed and looked at the cultivator with a smile. “May I ask what’s your cultivation level now?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe young Immortal cultivator said rather proudly, ” “Foundation Establishment…”
The lady boss’s smile remained unchanged as she interrupted him. “I’m sorry, but those who live in ordinary rooms are all Core Formation cultivators.”
The Immortal cultivator’s face suddenly froze. He smiled embarrassedly and said dejectedly, “Then shared bed. Shared bed it is.”
The lady boss rolled her eyes and noted them down. She pouted. “Here, go to the back. You guys are lucky that you have the last few beds.”
Cui Ting frowned. “As soon as the Tideviewing and Sword-listening conference arrived, a large group of cultivators immediately poured in. Even the inn is full. It seems that… Eh? Little Brother Jiang Feng, what are you doing?”
He stared blankly at Liu Yuan as he walked straight to the counter and shouted, “Jiuniang, do you still remember the bean paste cake from that year?”
The lady boss was stunned. She looked at Liu Yuan and saw an unfamiliar face. She sniffed and confirmed the smell. She immediately showed a surprised expression.”What are you doing here?”
[Character: Hu Jiuniang (3-star)]
[Gender: Female]
[Title: Jade-faced Fox, charming and exquisite]
[Level: Demon Spirit, Nascent Soul level two]
[Status: Normal]
She was one of the hundred or so friendly-oriented characters, the lady boss ofYuelai Inn, the Fox Demon, Hu Jiuniang.
Liu Yuan grunted in acknowledgment. It was much easier to deal with such friendly NPCs like Fu Huan. He smiled and said, “I’m here to participate in the Sword Pavilion’s conference. I’m here to see you. I wanted to stay with my friend, but the inn seems to be full…”
Hu Jiuniang reached out and took his hand. She blinked her beautiful eyes and smiled, “What’s wrong with that? You can just stay in my room.”
…Wait, isn’t this a friendship-oriented character?
