55: Huangyun Inn

Five days later.

Ling Feng and Ling Di finally arrived at Tianyun City, the capital of the Great Chu Dynasty.

After paying a certain entrance fee, the two then walked directly into the city.

Suddenly, a shout came from the side, directly entering the ears of the two.

"Young Master, is this your first time in Tianyun City? Do you need a guide?"

Ling Feng and Ling Di heard this, then turned to look at where the voice came from, only to see a young man dressed as a servant looking at them with a smile.

"Oh!"

"How do you know that we are visiting Tianyun City for the first time?"

Seeing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Young Master, ever since you entered the city gate, you have been looking around, and your Faces still show a hint of surprise. From this, it is clear that you are not familiar with Tianyun City. In a few days, it will be the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild's annual auction. During this time, people dispatched by various forces, big and small, from all over, gather in Tianyun City. I presume Young Master is also here to attend the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild's annual auction."

"Therefore, I boldly guessed that you, Young Master, must be visiting Tianyun City for the first time."

"Hmm, you guessed correctly, it is indeed our first time here, but we don't need a guide."

"How about this, you just need to tell us where the most luxurious inn in Tianyun City is, and this Spirit Stone in my hand will be yours."

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng suddenly understood, then took out a Low-Grade Spirit Stone and said to the young man with a smile.

"Really?"

The young man was initially disappointed when he heard that Ling Feng and Ling Di didn't need a guide, but when he heard that he could get a Spirit Stone just by telling them where the inn was, his disappointment vanished instantly, replaced by a look of pure joy.

However, he seemed to have thought of something else, and the joy on his Face was instantly replaced by doubt, so he spoke to Ling Feng to confirm.

"Really, this Young Master never lies."

Seeing this, Ling Feng answered decisively.

"The most luxurious inn in Tianyun City is the Huangyun Inn. It was built jointly by the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild and the Great Chu Dynasty's imperial Family. It is extremely luxurious and has everything one could wish for."

"Its location is not far from diagonally opposite the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild. The specific location is..."

Hearing Ling Feng's straightforward and affirmative answer, the young man immediately cast aside all his worries, then smiled and began to speak.

"Hmm, this Spirit Stone is yours."

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng nodded, then tossed the Low-Grade Spirit Stone in his hand to the young man, saying indifferently.

He then took Ling Di and strode towards the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild.

The young man looked at the Spirit Stone in his hand, then looked up at the retreating figures of Ling Feng and Ling Di, and couldn't help but shout out.

"Young Master, why don't I take you there?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng did not look back, but instead raised his right hand and waved it... Following the address the young man had just given, Ling Feng and Ling Di finally arrived in front of the Huangyun Inn. All the way from the city gate, they had seen many Martial Artists with impressive cultivation, including not a few Earth Martial Realm practitioners, and even encountered one Heaven Martial Realm.

It seems it would be best to be careful and cautious on this trip, lest they capsize in a ditch.

Ling Feng scanned the Huangyun Inn in front of him, then led Ling Di straight in, wanting to find a room in the inn to rest properly.

They had been traveling for days and hadn't had a good rest.

"Stop, entering the Huangyun Inn requires an entrance fee of one hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Otherwise, I'm sorry, no service."

Suddenly, a sharp reprimand came.

A guard at the entrance of the Huangyun Inn immediately stepped forward and directly blocked Ling Feng and Ling Di.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but frown, his expression full of suspicion.

"To enter this Huangyun Inn, one actually has to pay one hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones to be served? Are they eating gold?"

The guard saw that Ling Feng hadn't reacted for a long time, and couldn't help but frown.

Furthermore, he hadn't felt any spiritual energy fluctuations from Ling Feng and Ling Di. The guard thought that without spiritual energy fluctuations, these were just two ordinary people.

However, he also considered whether these two might be Young Masters from some Family, but this idea was immediately dismissed.

Even the most useless Young Masters from these Families wouldn't have absolutely no spiritual energy on them, would they? Moreover, if he were from a certain Family, shouldn't he bring a few guards when he goes out?

Immediately, the guard urged again.

"Do you two have Spirit Stones or not? If not, you'd better leave quickly. Besides, the consumption within this Huangyun Inn is extremely high. If you just want to go in and look around to broaden your horizons, I advise you to leave as soon as possible."

"Don't waste Spirit Stones for nothing, after all, this Huangyun Inn is not a place just anyone can enter."

Although the guard's words were full of consideration for Ling Feng and the others, his tone was extremely harsh, and the mockery on his Face showed no sign of restraint.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng's frown deepened, and his Face also became unsightly.

He couldn't help but think to himself.

"Am I experiencing the legendary plot of a dog acting arrogant on its master's power, where the protagonist passionately slaps them in the Face?"

But thinking about it, it made sense. This Huangyun Inn was jointly established by the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild and the Great Chu Dynasty's imperial Family, so its background and influence were naturally beyond doubt. Therefore, it was understandable for the guards here to have a certain sense of superiority.

Furthermore, Ling Feng and Ling Di had concealed their auras too perfectly. As long as they didn't actively make a move, they appeared just like two ordinary people.

Ling Feng at this moment didn't want to dwell too much on the guard, after all, these were their rules, and everyone was the same; what needed to be followed still had to be followed.

Subsequently, Ling Feng immediately took out two hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones and tossed them directly to the guard.

The guard quickly took the Spirit Stones, his Face full of surprise, but he then still muttered mockingly, unwilling to give up.

"Some people, ah, truly suffer for the sake of Face, not knowing what for..."

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng could no longer suppress his anger. His eyes coldly stared at the speaking guard, and for a moment, the surrounding temperature instantly dropped significantly.

"I'm new here and originally wanted to keep a low profile, but this guard has provoked me repeatedly. Does he really think I'm a soft persimmon with no temper?"

"Since this guard is so eager to die, then I might as well grant his wish."

Thinking of this, Ling Feng immediately said coldly to Ling Di.

"Kill him."
