Chapter 113 - Staying At The Desert Inn
Chapter 113: Staying At The Desert Inn
In the inn.
Everyone was discussing in low voices.
A burly man talked in a mysterious tone while they were surrounding a table by the window.
“Hey! Do you know where that Purple Cloud Sect’s disciple Purple Lightning went?”
“Who cares where he went? As long as he doesn’t kill his way into the inn.”
“This inn isn’t simple. I bet one gold coin that he won’t be able to enter.”
The people at the table looked at the burly man who was laughing foolishly as if they were looking at a fool.
“Don’t believe me when I tell you. Not to mention a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, even a Deity Stage cultivator wouldn’t dare to mess around in this desert inn.”
“Did you see those few Nascent Soul Stage cultivators who didn’t have a spot today? In the end, they still obediently went out to find a cave to spend the night in.”
Recalling the scene during the day when the few Nascent Soul cultivators had left with their tails between their legs, it was rare for them to not disagree with the big man.
At this moment, two unfamiliar faces entered through the door.
A man and a woman, one at the front and one at the back.
The man walking in front was dressed in a green robe. His face was as handsome as a fairy, and behind him was a girl dressed in plain clothes with her long hair tied up.
The moment they saw someone walk into the inn, everyone had a mocking expression on their faces.
“Let’s Go!” The burly man said in a low voice.
“Hey! These two don’t want to live anymore. How about we bet on them?”
Just as the others were puzzled, he took out a gold coin from his pocket.
“How about this? If they can stay, I’ll choose you guys to win. If they get chased away, I’ll win. What do you think?”
The few of them were silent. They looked at him with the expression on their faces as if they were looking at a fool.
The two people who walked into the inn were Su Xing and the young girl, Xue Jian.
According to her, the original name was the name of a very important person in her life. Later, after the two of them had separated, Xue Jian started to dress up as a man and also changed her name
….
He hoped that one day, he would be able to find that person again.
Su Xing did not ask any more questions and went straight to the counter.
He knocked on the counter twice and placed three gold coins down the counter.
“Two upper rooms, we will leave tomorrow!”
“Cough Cough!”
Hearing the movement, an old man in the back hall of the counter lifted the curtain and walked out.
“It’s coming, the show is coming!”
In the lobby of the inn, everyone’s eyes flashed with the expression of watching the show.
The quota for the inn had already been filled up a few hours ago, and the Desert Inn had also put up a sign saying that it was full. This young man and young woman had not seen it and had rashly walked in. They might have to throw away their lives here today.
The old man raised his head, and a gentle and handsome face appeared before his eyes.
Perhaps it was because it was rare to meet such a handsome young man in the desert, he was slightly stunned for a moment.
When he saw the young girl behind him, his expression also relaxed slightly.
He casually took out a token from under the counter and placed it on the table.
“The Desert Inn is full. You guys can stay in the Heaven No. 1 room for now!”
Hearing the old man’s joke, the people in the hall of the inn were in an uproar.
They originally wanted to watch the show, but they did not expect to hear the news that was hard to come by in ten years instead.
Those who knew about the Desert Inn knew that this inn not only had strange rules, but also had big secrets.
Take the Heaven No. 1 room that the old man mentioned just now as an example!
The Desert Inn had a total of 500 places to stay every day, and other than that, there was the mysterious Heaven No. 1 room.
There were a total of ten Heaven No. 1 rooms, and they were located at the highest level of the inn.
And what exactly was the scene in that mysterious sky rooms? It was not a place that the regular people in the hall could come into contact with.
It was said that before, there was a cultivator at the peak of the Deity Stage who asked the old man if he could stay in the sky room, and the answer he got was only three words.
That was– you’re not worthy!
And the lowest sky room number ten was not even worthy of a powerhouse at the peak of the Deity Stage, what about the first sky room number one?
Mastery Stage?
Crossing Calamity Stage?
Or Ascending Realm?
Everyone’s thoughts were ignored by Su Xing. He just looked at the old man indifferently.
He did not pick up the token, but said again.
“Old man, there are two of us here. Can We spare one more room? The accommodation fee won’t be a problem.”
As he spoke, Su Xing took out a bottle of pills.
The old man was not a simple inn attendant. The things that Su Xing took out were naturally not ordinary artifacts and objects.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
Hearing the familiar cough, everyone’s thoughts were raised once again.
“Master, we can just stay in one room. There’s no need to spend too much.”
Although she did not know the value of the ammunition on the table, the young girl Xue, who had trained hard since young, had long developed a diligent and thrifty character. Seeing Su Xing take out medicinal pills as room fees, she felt a little regretful.
However, Su Xing said : “Be good, we don’t lack medicinal pills!”
Feeling the warm touch on her head, Xue Jian replied softly.
Her lowered face suddenly turned pink.
Damn it, he was just like brother Xiao Yao, even the way he touched her head was exactly the same.
Could it be that they were the same person?
Su Xing did not pay attention to his subconscious actions. He smiled as he looked at the old man behind the counter.
“Is it not enough? and…”
“No, no, no, I can not accept the Young Master’s gift!”
The old man stopped coughing and slowly waved his hand.
Shock! He had not felt this kind of emotion for many years.
Just now, he actually realized that his spiritual sense could not see the youth in front of him clearly. Even if he used all his strength, it was still difficult to break through the thin layer of white mask this man had put up, but the youth shrouded in the fog simply seemed like a mortal.
But to be able to cultivate to the Realm of Ascension…?
At that moment, his words to the two people could not help but bear a bit of politeness.
And in the eyes of everyone, this scene gave rise to a strange illusion.
The old man was right here, so they naturally did not dare to discuss it in private, but the shocked expression on their faces was enough to express their feelings at that moment.
The old man… actually had a kind and amiable side to him.
You dare to believe it?
Hiss, hiss!
What was the background of this young man and young woman? Not only could she stay in the legendary Heaven-ranked room No. 1, but she even made the old man treat her with such courtesy.
At this moment, when they saw this strange scene, a big question mark rose in everyone’s hearts.
At this moment, the old man also smiled and explained.
“Young master, you can rest assured. There isn’t only one room in the Heaven-ranked room.”
“As for the others, you’ll have to go and see for yourself.”
Hearing this, Su Xing also nodded.
He did not care about the others, but the day of the tribulation was approaching, so it was good to have a quiet environment to regulate one’s breathing.
“In that case, Young Master, miss, follow me!”
“Sorry to trouble the old man!”
Su Xing cupped his fists!
Under the old man’s lead, the two of them walked up to the second floor and headed to the top floor of the inn.
The scene was completely silent, as if someone had suddenly pressed the mute button.
Until their backs disappeared at the stairs.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths..
After more than ten breaths of silence.
In the lobby of the inn, the sounds of discussion and disbelief erupted.
The commotion even flowed out of the inn through the curtains.
The lights were bright and the night was dark. An even stronger demonic wind was blowing from the depths of the Red Cliff.
