"Yeah, with such a big sandstorm, how co they weren’t blown away!"
"..."
When Su Xuan and his companions showed up at the Dragon Inn, it was quite an incredible mont for them. After all, given the severity of the previous sandstorm, how could they have possibly survived?
Su Xuan flipped off the cal and went over to Luo Tianyi, helping him to dismount. Luo Tianyi had been slightly injured before. When Su Xuan helped him off the cal, he held onto him and smiled.
"Feeling any better?"
"Cough, cough... Much better!"
Bu Daming jumped off the cal, excitedly saying,
"Boss, we’ve got guests, co out and attend to them!"
Just as Bu Daming said, in this desert, it’s indeed a place where money solves everything. When Bu Daming handed over a card to the attendant, they were welcod in warmly. Su Xuan noticed quite a few people lingering in the corner outside, likely folks without money. Reality is harsh here since the Dragon Gate Inn won’t serve vagrants; they’re in the business to make money.
"Brother Bu, what are those people doing huddled outside?"
Su Xuan was curious and felt pity for them, seeing how truly disheveled they looked.
"Sigh... what can I say, actually, the desert is a very dangerous place. So people here get imnse wealth, while others et their end. The dangers of this place surpass our imagination. So of those people ca to the desert for adventure, so for treasure hunting. Along the way, so encountered bandits, others the sandstorms. Maybe ghosts or gods saved them, but for survival, they can only scrape together leftovers here."
Bu Daming explained softly.
"So that’s how it is, huh? It really proves the saying - man will die for riches, as birds will for food!"
After entering the Dragon Gate Inn, Su Xuan and Bu Daming found the place to be quite large, with impressive decor. Su Xuan rubbed his nose, found a large table, and said,
"Brother Bu, get us so good food and bring so water; I’m dying of thirst!"
Upon their group’s entry into the Dragon Gate Inn, they attracted quite a bit of attention. At this ti, a charming young man on the second-floor corridor was looking at Su Xuan with a mischievous smile.
Su Xuan felt soone’s gaze on him, slowly looked up at the handso young lad, and gave a faint smile. The young man smiled back beautifully at Su Xuan.
"Young Master, isn’t this the guy from Paradise World that day?"
"You have a good eye. I said we’d et internationally soti, didn’t expect to et again so soon!"
The young man’s smile in looking at Su Xuan was very gentle.
"Every ti this kid shows up, he’s got so peerless beauty with him, such a player!"
The charming young man said quietly to soone next to him.
"Such a handso young lad, he’s not a guy, is he?"
Bu Daming touched his chin, mischievously said.
"Haha, not bad, Brother Bu, your eyesight is really sothing; it seems you’re an old hand in matters of the heart!"
Su Xuan poured himself a drink and smiled.
"Cough, cough, brother, don’t mock . I’m no veteran in love. It’s just seeing lots of people in the desert, you get an eye for it, but brother, I think that lady might be into you too!"
"Pfft..."
Su Xuan spat out his drink.
"Cough, cough... Brother Bu, stop talking nonsense! Tianyi, don’t listen to his drivel; I don’t even know who that person is!"
Su Xuan hurried to explain, thinking that he really didn’t know who that guy was.
"If you don’t know, why did he smile at you and not us?"
Luo Tianyi said with a jealous tone, but looking at Su Xuan’s guilty expression, she also found it quite amusing.
The handso young man suddenly opened his hands slowly, then leaped, stepping onto the railing and swooping down from the second floor. At the mont before he landed, he twirled in the air, landing gracefully like a startled swan. At that mont, Su Xuan truly thought she was like a fairy, with her clothes swirling as she landed, exuding an ethereal and spiritual aura.
She wore ancient attire, a long robe, making her appear as if she was a woman in disguise as a man. As an experienced romantic, Su Xuan could tell at a glance that she was cross-dressing, but to the unobservant, it wasn’t obvious since the girl was well-disguised. In these days, makeup skills were just that good.
Even though she dressed as a man, she couldn’t hide the feminine beauty and the transcendental aura she possessed.
"Young hero, would you mind if I join you for a drink?"
The woman looked at Su Xuan, smiling.
"Cough, cough..."
Su Xuan had a dry cough, thinking to himself about how exaggerated her way of speaking was, calling him a ’young hero’.
"We don’t know each other, do we?"
Su Xuan smiled faintly, sensing that this person bore no ill intentions. With his cultivation, Su Xuan could easily sense if soone harbored hostility towards him. He felt strange because, clearly, they didn’t know each other, yet she seed so familiar.
"Haha, it is said that within the four seas, all n are brothers. Why be so persistent, brother? Doesn’t everyone go from being strangers to acquaintances?"
The charming young man smiled and invited himself over, sitting next to Su Xuan, then looked at Luo Tianyi with a playful smile.
"Brother Su, you’re really blessed, to have the Young Master of Tianyi Castle as your confidante!"
"You know ?"
Luo Tianyi was curious, for it was clear he didn’t recognize this handso young man, yet he knew him, arousing his curiosity.
"Haha, one of the Four Beauties of the Capital, who wouldn’t know?"
Looking at Luo Tianyi, the charming young man displayed a teasing deanor. Had Luo Tianyi not known this young man was actually a woman, he might have been angry, but instead, he found it hard to be upset.
"Haha, who on earth are you?"
