Ye Ci Ke looked up at Duan Lanruo and said, "It's a pleasure to work with you." "Pleasant to work with." In the room, the Lord of Wanjian City and the Young Master of Xuanyin looked at each other and smiled, both very satisfied with the results. Chapter 92 Why don't you just live in my room? "During this period of time, please stay in Lanfang Garden in the City Lord's Mansion. It is my private manor, quiet and peaceful, with no one to disturb you. I will arrange for the improvement and opening of the Ten Thousand Swords Formation as soon as possible." Duan Lanruo kept smiling. Ye Ci Ke nodded slightly and said, "I brought a few top formation masters with me. Let them come and see if they can help. I hope to speed up the progress as much as possible to prevent him from having the opportunity to use that magical power." Duan Lanruo continued to smile and said, "Of course. If you are free, you can also visit the recent Tide Watching and Sword Listening Conference, or go to the Jade Snow Mountain Road in the Sword Pavilion. I can accompany you and do my best to be a good host." Ye Ci Ke had little interest in these things, but he still had to put on a show. He nodded and agreed, then with Xiu'er's careful help, he lifted his skirt, stood up and walked out the door. Duan Lanruo watched the carriage outside the window gradually leave.
Her gaze returned to the white paper on the desk again, her expression softened and relaxed, revealing a gentle smile. In the past few years, the city lord has been busy with too many things, but whenever he has free time, he can't help but miss her. Even when her daughter Duan Lian occasionally came back, looking at that face that was 70% similar to hers but more beautiful, she couldn't help wondering if she could keep him if she betrothed her daughter to him. At least she could talk to him face to face in public without hiding from the world's eyes, instead of sneaking around... Duan Lanruo came back to her senses and pinched her earlobe which was a little hot. A faint blush appeared on her beautiful face. She scolded herself in her heart for what she was thinking about. But my heart was pounding. She coughed twice, reached out to collect the papers on the table, and said after a moment's pause, "Ah Yue, the guard just reported that because of a disturbance caused by a sudden queue-jump, the Xuanyin family's convoy suddenly stopped at the city gate and asked everyone to come forward to receive the spiritual stone compensation?" "Yes." The woman wearing half a wooden mask who had been reported earlier walked out of the darkness, half-knelt on the ground, and lowered her head. Duan Lanruo raised the corner of her mouth: "Do people from the Xuanyin family really have the leisure to pay attention to what those people think?" She stood up, her loose clothes were a little wrinkled, revealing her plump white chest, and she asked herself sarcastically, "I'm afraid not." The Lord of Wanjian City seemed to see through everything, and ordered calmly: "Give me a record of all the people who entered the city at that time, including their appearance and talisman information, and focus on screening out those fake identities obtained through legal channels." "Yes." The secret guard named A Yue responded and disappeared into the darkness. Who could understand all the rules and layout of Wanjian City better than her? This is her home ground. Since her people have taken the initiative to fall into the trap, how could she let others take them away? Duan Lanruo narrowed her eyes, licked her lips with the tip of her tongue, and smiled like a fox. - At this time, Liu Yuan, who didn't know that the two women had "reached a consensus", was at Yuelai Inn preparing to take on a task. Yuelai Inn is a large chain store that appears in various martial arts novels and TV dramas. Regardless of whether cultivators or people of the martial arts world like it or not, players really like to go to Yuelai Inn. This place is also an encounter location. It is randomly refreshed every week, and you can always meet many different NPCs. Including the special NPC that meets the conditions for joining the Qingxie Fang, there is also a chance that he will refresh in the inn. There are also some wandering merchants who provide special stores where you can buy many interesting items. However, Yuelai Inn is only available in large city maps. Small towns like Xichang Town do not have any infrastructure, and naturally cannot support the existence of a large inn.
Liu Yuan looked around at the cultivators sitting in the lobby. Most of them were at the level of Qi training and foundation building. Most of them were teenagers and were divided into small circles. In addition, there were some secular people. As mentioned before, the strength of the secular people in "Shangyang" has also been raised along with the overall background of the immortal heroes. Before the Jindan stage, people who practice martial arts can rely on martial arts to rival the immortal cultivators, but they must be the most outstanding ones in the martial arts world. The ordinary people can be dealt with by the immortal cultivators with just a few spells. Most of the people living in Wanjian City are ordinary people, and the immortal cultivators have flocked in during this period because of the "Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword" conference. Now the division between the two sides in the inn is still very obvious. The left side is basically full of cultivators, and the right side is basically full of people dressed as knights. However, in Liu Yuan's eyes, there was not much difference between the two sides, they were all rookies. After all, those with status and strength had all stayed at Qingpingju as the gatekeeper mentioned, so there was no way they would come to Yuelai Inn. ...Except for fugitives like him and people like Cui Ting who are determined to awaken the people's numb consciousness. Liu Yuan walked into the inn without attracting much attention, because during the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Conference, Yuelai Inn was packed with people. There were several other people who followed him in, and at most they just glanced at him briefly, and then immediately looked away. Cui Ting next to him naturally restrained his aura. This newbie in the Nascent Soul stage wanted to hide himself, so naturally no one in the inn could tell. The proprietress looked to be around thirty years old, with her hair in a bun, a fair face, a mole at the corner of her mouth, and a good figure. She was wearing a red long skirt with a lilac-colored double-breasted jacket on the outside. She was holding a pipe in her hand, leaning against the counter with her graceful figure, looking very charming and the focus of the whole place. At the moment, she was dealing with several cultivators who wanted to stay at the hotel. She was picking her light red fingernails and said slowly, "Dear guests, I've already told you that there are no more rooms available. You can only stay in the bunk beds on the first floor. Please stop making trouble. It's very annoying for me." One of the young immortal cultivators was dissatisfied and said, "If there is no upper room, don't we have ordinary rooms? How come it was directly lowered to a bunk bed? Do we have to squeeze together with those mortals?" The others echoed a few words. The lady boss chuckled and looked at the immortal cultivator with a smile: "May I ask what your cultivation level is?" The young immortal cultivator said proudly: "Foundation building..." The proprietress kept her smile and interrupted immediately: "I'm sorry, but those who are staying in ordinary rooms are all in the Jindan stage now." The cultivator's face froze immediately. He smiled awkwardly and said dejectedly, "Then let's just sleep on the same bed." The proprietress rolled her eyes, wrote them down, and pursed her lips: "Here, go to the back. You're lucky. These are the last few beds." Cui Ting frowned: "As soon as the Guanchao Tingjian Conference arrived, a large number of immortal cultivators immediately poured in, and even the inn was full. It seems... Hey, little brother Jiang Feng, what are you going to do?" He stared blankly at Liu Yuan as he walked straight to the counter and called out, "Jiu Niang, do you still remember the bean paste cake from that year?" The proprietress was startled and looked at Liu Yuan, only to see a strange face. However, she sniffed, confirmed the smell, and immediately showed a surprised expression: "Why are you here?" 【Role: Hu Jiuniang (three stars)】 【Gender: Female】 [Title: Jade-faced Fox·Charming and Delicate] [Level: Demon Spirit·Nascent Soul Stage 2] [Status: normal] One of the more than one hundred friendship-oriented characters, the proprietress of Yuelai Inn in Wanjian City, the fox demon Hu Jiuniang. Liu Yuan hummed. He felt much more relaxed when facing an NPC with the same friendship as Fu Huan. He smiled and said, "I came to participate in the Jiange Conference and happened to come to see you. My friend and I wanted to stay in a hotel, but the inn seems to be full..." Hu Jiuniang reached out and hooked his hand, blinked her beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "What's the big deal? Why don't you just stay in my room?"
...Wait, isn't this friendship a bit wrong? Chapter 93: Hammer's Rebellion Plan Where is the friendship you promised? Liu Yuan looked up at the progress bar in doubt. The progress bar was still pink, but there was indeed a small orchid logo next to the end. This is ultimately determined as friendship in the game, but it will only be displayed after the favorability is full, because it may deteriorate before that. So does this friendship mean the kind where you can sleep in your own room with your feet touching on the same bed? I understand. Since the progress bar is fine, that's definitely not the problem. Liu Yuan looked at the pair of soft hands holding his, the fair, tender and soft skin, the delicate and charming light pink nails. They were indeed a clan of fox demons. The average level of appearance of each individual incarnation was very high, and they also had a built-in soft light filter. Hu Jiuniang's wink and smile were truly charming, but what was revealed in it was pure friendship. We cannot judge the truth of things based on appearances. "Meow!" Chui Chui, who had been sleeping comfortably on his shoulder, suddenly woke up. When he saw the fox demon holding Liu Yuan in front of him, his hair stood on end and he bent over. "Meow meow meow!" Chui Chui opened his eyes wide and stared at Hu Jiuniang in front of him. How come a demon came to seduce her mount just after she had a nap? ! ——This stupid and arrogant dragon had lived a comfortable life for a long time. It was a typical case of forgetting the pain after the wound healed. It had completely forgotten the painful experience of being cummed in the mouth, and even arrogantly regarded Liu Yuan as a mount that carried her around. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to be conquered by a mortal like Cricket! Absolutely impossible! She is a rare dragon transformed from earth and fire in a thousand years, a noble demon with the soul of a real dragon. It must be because her transformed form is so beautiful that it completely conquered this mortal, so he was willing to become her mount. "Meow meow meow! (Demon dragon roars)" The ownership of the mount will be protected by her! The demon dragon's eyes became sharp, the dragon soul was immortal, and its head was held high and its back was not bent! "Ok?" Liu Yuan's heart moved, and he noticed Chui Chui's unusual movement. He frowned, and reached out to press her head back down, which she had raised proudly. "Meow..." Chui Chui fell down instantly due to the suppression of the contract and could not get up again. But because of Chui Chui's strong attack, Hu Jiuniang subconsciously withdrew her hand and looked at the cute little white cat with some surprise. Why did she feel a little scared for a moment just now, as if something dangerous was going to happen? But when I carefully sensed it, it disappeared in an instant, as if it were an illusion. Also, why did this furry little cutie suddenly look so disillusioned... It was as if the cat's ideal life had been shattered by the huge blow of reality. If Liu Yuan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely be in tears and amused. How could it not be dangerous if a ninth-level Nascent Soul dragon suddenly jumped up? Hu Jiuniang retracted her surprised expression, blinked at Liu Yuan again, and smiled sweetly, "It seems that you have gained a lot during the time you were away."
She naturally would not simply regard this incident as a coincidence, but the owner of this unusual "cat" was Liu Yuan, so Hu Jiuniang pretended that nothing had happened. It was like seeing Liu Yuan coming in disguise, but not exposing him, but instead cooperating with him tacitly. What's the point of getting to the bottom of it? Liu Yuan said: "I did gain a lot..." For example, two hundred wives or something. Cui Ting was a little confused: "Are you friends?" Liu Yuan nodded and said, "Well, when Jiu Niang encountered some difficulties and was starving, I gave her a piece of red bean paste cake... Later, we became friends after a few interactions." The difficulty of conquering the friendship line is much lower than that of the love line. Many times, even without triggering the plot, just sending things can improve it a lot. Anyway... just pay the gold and it's done. Giving gifts when there is no plot can improve one or two points. Giving gifts when there is a plot can also have unexpected effects. "So that's how it is... A friend in need is indeed precious." Cui Ting nodded and said in sudden realization. Liu Yuan said: "That's right... But Jiu Niang, I'm here with my friends, so I can't stay in your room. You should be serious and stop joking." Hu Jiuniang muttered in her heart, wondering who was joking, and then smiled and said, "Of course I can't let all of you live in my room. How can such a small place accommodate you? There are indeed people in the Jindan stage living upstairs, but it would be an exaggeration to say that they are all in the Jindan stage. However, the ordinary rooms are indeed occupied, but I converted the upstairs room into a multi-person room with some space available. The strength of those people just now was too weak to be qualified to share the room, and they didn't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is, so I said that on purpose." "Come on, I'll take you to that room." "No, that's not necessary. Brother Jiang Feng can go upstairs. I'll live downstairs. Is there any room on the dormitory bunk bed?" Cui Ting said seriously. When he said that we should go deep into the masses, he really meant that we should go deep into the masses. Liu Yuan had no way to stop him. He nodded to the surprised Hu Jiuniang and arranged Cui Ting to sleep in the big bunk bed. Anyway, this guy would be a judge at the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Competition in a few days, so he might as well take it as an experience of life. Hu Jiuniang asked the waiter to look after the shop and took Liu Yuan to a room on the third floor. On the way, Hu Jiuniang looked back at Liu Yuan and said, "Why did you change your face? Are you being hunted by your lover because of your peach blossom debt?" Liu Yuan paused while stroking Chui Chui's fur and twitched his lips: "This is a long story..." Hu Jiuniang shook her head and rolled her eyes. "I'm not interested in hearing about your love history. I told you a few years ago that you would have an affair sooner or later. Be careful. This is a sign of the fox clan's secret technique, but you didn't believe it." “…That was then, who knew it would turn out like this now.” Liu Yuan sighed. Who would have known that he would travel through time? Liu Yuan didn't remember what Hu Jiuniang said. After all, he had conquered so many characters, and apart from the love lines he remembered clearly, he didn't deliberately remember some seemingly meaningless conversations between other characters when they interacted with each other. He touched Chui Chui's back. Chui Chui, who had just found the pride of the dragon clan, was suddenly pushed back to reality and was now disheartened. He meowed weakly and rubbed his hand cooperatively. The demon dragon thought to herself that she must get back at justice. She had endured humiliation for too long. Now that she had Liu Yuan's trust, she should fight back and not continue to degenerate. Look at her now, she was bullied to the point where she had no power to fight back. It was so humiliating. Moreover, she had finally tried to protect her ownership, but was suppressed... Now the strength of this mount has reached the foundation-building stage for some reason, and it is the best time to resist! Humph, let's take advantage of tonight... Hammer's plan of resistance was brewing in his mind.
Hu Jiuniang brought Liu Yuan out of the room and opened the door. Five people were already living in the renovated upper room. They were all here to participate in the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Conference. There were three men and two women, and they came from different sects. Coincidentally, one of the two women was wearing a Taoist robe. She was a nun from the Yuxu Taoist sect, with the Taoist name Lingyu. She is Yuxu Hanyan's junior sister "Ling Yao".
