Chapter 512 - The Inn's Owner
Chapter 512 – The Inn’s Owner
"By the way, what is your name, little brother?" Su Minghai asked.
Yun Lintian put his worries aside and answered. "My name is Mu Chen."
"That's it?" Su Minghai frowned slightly.
Yun Lintian glanced at him and replied plainly. "That's it."
Su Minghai stared at Yun Lintian's face for a full minute before saying. "Fine. Since you don't want to tell me, I naturally won't force you." He changed the topic. "When are you leaving?"
Yun Lintian thought for a moment and replied. "Honestly, I don't have any plan yet. I'll stay here for a day and decide about it later."
"That's fine… How about staying in this inn? I can apply for a discount here." Su Minghai said and drank a mouthful of wine.
Yun Lintian had a strange expression as he asked. "Are you a regular customer here?"
Su Minghai shook his head and flashed a mysterious smile. He leaned forward slightly and whispered. "I'm the owner here."
Yun Lintian was dumbfounded and subconsciously glanced at the innkeeper. He then saw the innkeeper keep glancing in this direction with an anxious look on his face. It seemed he was worried about the expense of everyone's meal here.
Yun Lintian shifted his gaze onto Su Minghai and saw the latter let out a chuckle. Looked like Su Minghai was really the boss here.
"You hide it quite deep, huh?" Yun Lintian said.
"Hide? What to hide? I didn't even try to hide my identity. You just didn't see it yourself." Su Minghai picked a piece of fragrant meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
Yun Lintian was speechless… I came here for the first time. How could I know you are the owner here?
At the same time, Yun Lintian was curious about Su Minghai's strength. There was no aura leak out of his body at all. If it wasn't because Yun Lintian saw Su Minghai was fine under the blue-robed man's attack, he would mistake Su Minghai as an ordinary person.
Naturally, he won't dare to use Eyes of Heaven on Su Minghai face to face like this. He would find a chance to do it in secret later.
The two continued to talk about various topics. Through the conversation, Yun Lintian had learned a lot about the situation in Blue Tide City.
As one of the major cities in the Central Continent, Blue Tide City was densely packed with countless profound practitioners and business opportunities. Any treasure or precious materials you could think of were easily found in this place.
Because of the location, this city had become the most significant transportation hub between the Northern, Western, and Eastern Continent. There were several transportation groups, and the Black Wing Mercenary Group was one of the largest groups among them.
From Su Minghai's words, the leader of the Black Wing had a close relationship with Divine Thunder Palace. That was why the group's position in the Central Continent was highly stable.
After chatting for a few hours, Su Minghai had arranged the best room for Yun Lintian and left. Yun Lintian meticulously checked the room and made sure there was nothing suspicious before entering the Land of Beyond Heaven.
When he passed through the Gate of Beyond Heaven, Yun Lintian was stunned when he found it was actually raining here. He circulated his profound energy to block the rain and looked around in amazement.
Before this, the Land of Beyond Heaven never had any climate. Whether The Sun or The Thunder didn't change the environment here much. It seemed The Moon had played a crucial role in this change.
"Lintian?" Yun Qingrou carried an umbrella in one hand and a bamboo basket filled with medicinal herbs in another hand. She was surprised to see Yun Lintian appear here.
"Is it raining first time here?" Yun Lintian asked.
Yun Qingrou nodded with a smile. "Yes. I've discovered that this rain can increase the plants' growth rate. Do you see these herbs here?… I planted these sprouts yesterday.
Yun Lintian glanced at the herbs in the bamboo basket and was surprised by their ages. The age of these herbs was at least two months. What does this mean? It meant this rain could increase the growth rate of the herbs by sixty times! What about adding the acceleration ability? It won't be long before he could open a trading hall with an unlimited supply.
With this, the Cloud Shadow team would engage in various businesses aside from a restaurant in the future.
"Big Brother Yun!" At this moment, Linlin ran out of the villa and threw herself into Yun Lintian's embrace. She missed Yun Lintian a lot, even though they had just seen each other last night.
Yun Lintian rubbed her head dotingly and said. "Sorry, big brother has been busy recently. Big brother will bring you out today. Are you happy?"
"Really? That's great!" Linlin raised her head to look at Yun Lintian and smiled brightly.
Yun Qingrou watched the scene with a gentle smile and said. "Why did you come here today? Aren't you supposed to head to the Blue Tide City right now?"
Yun Lintian replied. "Let's go in first. I will tell you everything."
Yun Qingrou nodded and walked into the villa with Yun Lintian.

In a well-decorated room, Su Minghai was sitting behind a precious ancient wood table and poured himself a cup of wine. He glanced at a young woman opposite him and asked. "Want some?"
The young woman shook her head. "I'm not in the mood."
This woman looked like she was in her twenties. She had a decent appearance, nothing special except for her strange black eyes similar to a bottomless abyss. Her hair was short, around her shoulders. She was dressed in a white robe with a black ribbon on her waist.
"Why? Did those profound beasts annoy you again?" Su Minghai leaned backward and gulped a mouthful of wine. If Yun Lintian was here, he would see Su Minghai's temperament was entirely different from when he was in the inn.. If the previous Su Minghai was like an amiable uncle, his current appearance was akin to a top CEO who managed a trillion-worth company.
