16: Chapter 16 What the hell am I thinking!

The sun had already set in the west, and the evening breeze blew with a chill, rustling the big tree in the courtyard.

Five men and two women stood under the tree, staring at each other and the stone table in silence.

Everyone wanted to stay in a single room, but no one knew how to bring it up in a legitimate way.

Seeing everyone at a stalemate, Gu Wanquan, dressed in white, spoke up: "There are only four rooms, but there are seven of us. That means one person will get a room to themselves!"

Once the point was made clear, everyone looked at Gu Wanquan. If he dared to say he wanted a single room, they would definitely oppose it firmly.

But the smiling Gu Wanquan changed the subject: "Among us, the two girls will have to share a room, otherwise there won't be enough rooms!"

He didn't directly address who would get the single room, but instead presented the facts to persuade the two girls first.

Although they knew it would turn out this way, Wen Daoyi and Ling Yao were still a bit disappointed.

Ling Yao slumped directly onto the table, puffing out her cheeks in displeasure, looking like a little steamed bun that had been wronged.

With two contestants eliminated, there were now five people left for three rooms. The person who would get the single room would be chosen from among the five of them.

Gu Wanquan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked with a smile, "I wonder which Junior Brother wants to stay alone?"

"I want to stay alone!"

Unexpectedly, the first to speak was the aloof and arrogant Yin Chaoge.

As soon as Yin Chaoge spoke, Su Yi also blurted out: "I want to stay alone!"

I really don't want to get screwed; I must stay in a single room!

Su Yi and Yin Chaoge exchanged glances. Yin Chaoge looked at Su Yi and said arrogantly: "I want a single room!"

"I want it!" Su Yi glared back without showing weakness, but unfortunately, his wide, peach-blossom eyes just made him look like he was acting coquettishly.

Gu Wanquan watched the two arguing without ceasing, his smile undiminished. He raised his hand, and True Qi flowed at his fingertips.

Three leaves fell quietly onto the table.

With this display of releasing True Qi, Gu Wanquan instantly stunned everyone present.

Everyone had only just become familiar with their Cultivation Technique and hadn't started to Cultivate yet, nor had they begun to learn how to use True Qi.

Yet Gu Wanquan was already able to manipulate True Qi freely without any instruction?

Damn it, the Son of Heaven's Mandate really doesn't follow any logic!

Pretending not to see the shocked expressions of the others, Gu Wanquan pointed at the leaves on the table with a smile and said: "Since you both want to live alone, in order not to hurt our harmony, why don't we use the leaves to guess heads or tails? The two who get the same side will share a room, how about that?"

"How do two people play?" Su Yi asked, puzzled as he looked at the three leaves on the table.

Gu Wanquan's smile was gentle as he said, looking a bit troubled: "You're right, two people can't play, so I'll just act as a foil!"

"???"

Su Yi and Yin Chaoge looked at the smiling Gu Wanquan, who wore an expression that said he was doing this for their own good.

The simple-minded Yin the Mute thought this method was good and nodded in agreement.

But Su Yi, who knew the temper of this black-bellied man in white, was instantly startled.

"It's over!"

"This black sesame glutinous rice ball definitely has a backup plan. This room will surely be reluctantly accepted by this black sesame glutinous rice ball!"

He pretends to be troubled on the surface, but in his heart, he has already calculated how to openly live in a single room!

Truly unsolvable!

Su Yi gritted his teeth secretly, crying out in his heart that he had been tricked, but the brainless Yin Chaoge beside him had already agreed.

In order not to get screwed, Su Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree to this method.

The result was just as Su Yi had expected.

Su Yi and Yin Chaoge both guessed tails, while Gu Wanquan got heads.

When the results came out, Gu Wanquan, holding the leaves, feigned surprise and said: "How did it turn out like this?"

Watching the surprised and troubled Gu Wanquan, Su Yi rolled his eyes. This guy really knows how to act!

"How did it turn out like this? If you didn't cheat, I'll chop my head off and give it to you!"

Yin Chaoge stared at the leaf in his hand for a while, then threw it away and looked at Su Yi: "You will regret this!"

"???"

Su Yi, confused, pointed at himself and said: "Are you sick? I'm sharing a room with you, it's not like I'm the one living alone, why are you threatening me?"

Yin Chaoge didn't answer, found a room on his own, and went to tidy up his bed.

"Sigh, it seems the two of you have a deep connection. I actually wanted to share a room with Junior Brother Su, so I could ask for advice on Cultivation!" Gu Wanquan looked at Su Yi with some regret.

Su Yi rolled his eyes and didn't speak, but in his heart, he had already cursed Gu Wanquan from top to bottom.

Shut up, black sesame glutinous rice ball. If Yin Chaoge was standing here right now, you would say you wanted to share a room with him too, right?

You've profited and yet you still act innocent!

With the room assignments finished, everyone returned to their respective rooms.

Only Su Yi lingered at the doorway, hesitating to go in, feeling very conflicted.

That talent effect shouldn't be that perverted, right?

It shouldn't have that much of an effect on men, right?

If Yin Chaoge wants to screw me, can I beat him?

In the story line, Gu Wanquan is half-savage demon, so he shouldn't like humans, but living with him is too dangerous.

Yin Chaoge switched from the Righteous Path to the Demon Sect, and was cold until his death; he looks like he has a low libido.

Xiao Tian is just a brat, but he likes to cry and is annoying.

The only one to watch out for is the pure young monk Shi Buran, who is the only one with rumors about him!

Thinking about it this way, Yin Chaoge actually seems like the most qualified roommate!

...

With a complicated heart, Su Yi finally walked into the room with trepidation.

The room was rectangular, with a table in the middle and places for each of them to rest on either side.

Yin Chaoge watched Su Yi enter the room, his arrogant face showing impatience as he said: "I'm telling you, I..."

Yin Chaoge stopped mid-sentence, his eyes fixed on Su Yi, who had walked in looking wary.

Su Yi said irritably: "You what you!"

A flash of panic crossed Yin Chaoge's arrogant face, and he instantly turned his head away, stuttering: "No, nothing!"

"You're sick!" Su Yi said irritably.

Su Yi sat on his bed and picked up the Storage Pouch that Senior Brother Chen had specifically instructed him to choose, wanting to see what was different about it.

Inside the Storage Pouch was a long sword, clothes, shoes, food, and finally, four Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

Hmm? Didn't they say everyone only had two?

How come there are four?

Thinking of Senior Brother Chen Feng's deliberate reminder before leaving, Su Yi felt a sudden sense of emotion.

This Senior Brother Chen Feng is actually a good person!

Having two more Low-Grade Spirit Stones than everyone else for no reason meant having a much larger amount of experience than others!

This start is too wonderful!

Thinking about the extra chunk of experience points he had inexplicably gained, Su Yi couldn't help but laugh.

Opposite him, Yin Chaoge, who was sitting cross-legged preparing to Cultivate his Cultivation Technique, opened his eyes slightly and looked at Su Yi, who was laughing happily on the bed opposite. For some reason, he felt inexplicably irritable.

At this moment, under the influence of Su Yi's mythical talent "Born Alluring Talent," even Yin Chaoge, as the Son of Heaven's Mandate, was affected.

Su Yi was already exceptionally good-looking, and those peach-blossom eyes, which seemed to be able to speak, were now curved in a smile.

From Yin Chaoge's perspective, the fine lines at the corners of Su Yi's eyes, crinkled from his smile, seemed to softly hide the spring breeze!

Yin Chaoge was suddenly shocked, then shook his head frantically, trying to force himself to sober up.

"Su Yi across from me is a man! What the hell am I thinking about?"
