Female lead: No, it's me again??

Feng Siyue glanced at them, then walked down the steps and headed towards the street on the left.

Coming to her senses, Hua Rouzhi's eyes lit up with joy when she saw the young man at the door. "Young Master Xu..."

She lifted her skirt and ran outside.

The proprietress behind me was still calling out, "Hey, hey, young lady, are you going to stay here or not?"

Xu Mo turned around, her voice cold and clear, "Let's find another inn."

The guard beside him replied, "Yes."

Feng Siyue held up an oil-paper umbrella, while Xuan Li chattered beside her, "I knew I shouldn't have come out today. It's really unlucky to run into a group of people like this."

"But where will we stay next?"

Feng Siyue stopped and pointed ahead.

"That."

Xuan Li looked ahead and saw a two-story inn standing a hundred meters away.

"Qingsi Academy? Why does that sound like a place for seclusion and reflection?"

Despite the heavy rain, Xuan Li didn't care about anything else and followed Feng Siyue into the inn.

An elderly man with a white beard, dressed in neat coarse cloth clothes, sat under the eaves reading a book, while a well-behaved big yellow dog lay on the ground snoring.

Xuan Li stepped forward and said, "Grandpa, we'd like to stay at the inn."

The old man didn't look up. "One hundred top-grade spirit stones, any spot on the second floor."

Feng Siyue frowned slightly. What kind of inn is so expensive?

She wanted to ask, but Xuan Li, unaware of the prices, had already stepped through the door. "Chu Han, pay up."

Feng Siyue had no choice but to take out one hundred top-grade spirit stones from her storage ring and place them on the table. "Here you are, sir."

Wen Qifeng glanced at her. "Someone will bring the hot water up in a bit."

Feng Siyue nodded. "Thank you."

Then they went inside.

The old man lowered his head and continued reading.

Not long after, a figure in blue stopped in front of him. "Old Wen, I'd like to stay at the inn."

Wen Qifeng looked up, his aged face full of smiles. "Xu Mo, what brings you here today?"

Xu Mo looked apologetic, "The sudden downpour has caused a lot of trouble."

Wen Qifeng waved his hand, "Go in."

Xu Mo nodded, "I'll come see you again after I've settled in."

The boy then went inside with two guards.

When Hua Rouzhi caught up, she just saw Xu Mo enter the room. She quickly ran after him, saying, "Young Master Xu, wait for me."

But the old man stopped them at the door, saying, "One hundred top-grade spirit stones for a room."

Hua Rouzhi's expression changed, and she subconsciously feigned grievance, saying, "Isn't this too expensive?"

One hundred top-grade spirit stones?

Is he robbing me?

Xuan Li, who happened to open the window, saw this scene and couldn't help but laugh, "Oh dear, some people can't even afford a hundred top-grade spirit stones, can they? How come they're poorer than me?"

A familiar voice rang out above her head. Hua Rouzhi looked up and saw that it was the same beggar from before.

Her face darkened. How could she even be allowed to stay at a hotel?

Wen Qifeng wasn't buying it.

"If you're not staying, then leave."

Then, with a gentle wave of her hand, Hua Rouzhi and a group of servants and maids were pushed out.

The maid stepped forward, "How dare you! Do you know who my young lady is?"

Wen Qifeng looked up impatiently, "If you're not staying here, then leave. Don't block the way."

Sensing the old man's displeasure, the big yellow dog stood up and barked at the group. The aura of the sacred beast spread out in a small area, instantly freezing them in place!

Hua Rouzhi was just a spirit master and could not withstand the powerful pressure of the sacred beast. She immediately fainted.

The remaining high-level spiritual masters could only flee in a panic, leading their people away hastily.

Feng Siyue, who was about to explain the prices to Xuan Li, swallowed back her words after hearing what she said.

Forget it, as long as she is happy.

But what just happened was.....

Xuan Li rolled her eyes. "Tch, I thought you were something special."

She closed the window.

Soon.

"Long time no see, Big Yellow, you're getting more and more impressive!"

A woman dressed in a light blue dress ran over and rubbed Da Huang's face, then obediently greeted the old man, "Hello, Dean Wen."

Wen Qifeng closed the book helplessly. "Why do you little kids always come here?"

"Xu Mo is here, and you're all here too."

Luo Xiao, standing behind her, chuckled, "Oh, Dean Wen, we're rich today, so we thought we'd drop by to see you."

Wen Qifeng feigned disdain, "Alright, alright, one hundred top-grade spirit stones, pay up and I'll let you in."

Luo Xiao handed over the storage bag in a fawning manner, "Here you are, Dean. I also brought your favorite scallion pancakes."

The old man took it and said, "Go inside, don't keep me from reading."

"Got it!"

The girl who was petting the big yellow dog got up and walked in with cheerful steps.

After everyone left, the old man opened his storage bag. Besides one hundred top-grade spirit stones, there was some fresh monster meat and vegetables, as well as his favorite scallion pancakes.

These little kids are quite considerate of him.

He placed the bag in front of the big yellow dog. "Big Yellow, take this to the kitchen and let them make it."

Big Yellow stood up, picked up the bag, and went inside.

The innermost room on the second floor was furnished very simply.

The two, having finished bathing and changing, were sitting in chairs drinking tea. The window on the right was open, and rainwater was falling from the eaves in a straight line.

Xuan Li felt a little cold.

She took out a red cloak from her storage ring and draped it over herself. The soft, warm touch instantly enveloped Xuan Li, making her feel happy immediately.
