Chapter 21: Put it on my tab!

  Chapter 21: Put it on my account!

  Jade Orchid City, located on the edge of the Daqin Empire's territory, near one of the three major gathering places for wild beasts in the Chongwu Continent, "Nanhuang".

  Although it is a remote city of the Great Qin Empire, due to its unique location, Yulan City has become the main market for trading low-grade demon beast skins and furs in the empire. Except for some extremely high-level demon beast skins and internal elixirs that warriors would not sell here, all other mid-to-low level demon beast skins are generally traded here.

  After all, the higher the level of the demon beast's fur, the more precious it is!

  Especially that six-level demon beast can give birth to the inner elixir, it is said that as long as through special methods of adjustment, mixing some precious medicinal materials, even can enhance the martial artist's true strength cultivation.

  The dim yellow dusk passed quietly, and the dark curtain had already fallen across the sky.

  Mo's Inn is the largest and most luxurious of several inns in Yulan City. Of course, behind this grand facade, Mo's Inn is also not cheap, with a consumption scale that is slightly higher than that of the inns in the Imperial City of Great Qin.

  But even so, people still flock to this Mo-style inn for food and lodging.

  Even if the Mo family inn did so, it almost took away all the distinguished guests, but other inns dared not to be dissatisfied! Because, the Mo family inn is an industry under the Qin State Mo Family!

  The Mo family is one of the top three families in the Great Qin Empire!

  Even if other inns have more or less powerful forces backing them, those forces are absolutely incomparable to the Mo family. On the Chongwu continent, might makes right! The Mo family has overwhelming military power that intimidates all four directions, and its influence on the industries under its control is also extremely great.

  At this time, in the best Tianzi No. 1 room of the Mo's Inn.

  "An Bo, feeling better?"

  A young man in a magnificent blue robe, looking no more than twenty-two or three years old, returned to the bedside after sending off a doctor and asked anxiously, gazing at the elderly person on the bed.

  "Cough, cough! I'm fine, young master," the old man said with a few coughs, followed by a smile.

  "This time, however, I was reckless. If only I had let Pingbo come along too," the young man's brow furrowed slightly, still seemingly worried. "I never could have imagined that next to that beast would be hiding a 'Bì Wěi Xī'!"

  "Alright, young master, I'm fine!"

  The old man shook his head, and a hint of emotion flashed across his slightly pale face: "Since the inner elixir of that 'Zhuī Yān Xióng' has been obtained, then Fifth Miss's internal injury doesn't need to be worried about anymore!"

  After learning that he was seriously injured and unconscious, it was this young master who had served him for many years who painstakingly carried him out of the treacherous South Wilderness... The old man felt both moved and a little frightened. If his own young master were to be hurt by the monster because of him, even if he himself managed to survive, he would be filled with remorse.

  "Yes, wait until An Bo recovers a bit and we'll set off."

  When he mentioned his fifth sister to the old servant who had followed him for many years, a rare smile appeared on the young man's face, and it was clear that his feelings for her were also very deep.

  "An Bo, you rest. I'll go out first..."

  The young man backed out after saying a few words to his old servant and closed the door behind him.

  "This time, I really have to thank that young man. If it wasn't for him taking action, perhaps An Bo and I would already be food for the outer demons of Nan Huang..."

  In a mutter to himself, the young man's face was full of self-ridicule. "The third young master of the illustrious Yuwen family, fallen in the outer regions of South Barbarian... If this gets out, who knows how many people will laugh at me!"

  ………

  Outside Yulan City, when the night curtain was about to completely cover the sky and earth, a figure gradually appeared.

  Looking at the magnificent city in front of him, Ling Qing's face broke into a smile. "We've finally arrived! Let's find a place to settle down first, and then have a good meal!"

  After a battle with the Wen family, Ling Qingyan had been rushing about for half a day and was indeed feeling somewhat fatigued, not just physically but also mentally. At this moment, seeing that their destination was already in sight, Ling Qingyan's mood was naturally excellent, like tender shoots of bamboo breaking through the earth in early spring, fresh and delightful.

  As soon as he stepped through the city gate, his eyes caught sight of the twinkling lights on both sides of the road. Ling Qingyan was holding a small Tibetan mastiff and after turning two corners, they finally found an inn.

  Stop in your tracks, looking at the luxurious and exquisite inn in front of you. Ling Qingyan's eyes lit up. And just then, the sign above the main gate of this inn also appeared before Ling Qingyan's eyes, with four large characters written in gold lacquer -

  Moss Inn.

  "This inn is luxurious yet understated, unlike those three inns in Moyuncheng..."

  In an instant, Ling Qingyan directly stepped into this Mo family inn.

  As soon as Ling Qing entered, a simple and honest-looking waiter came forward, bowed his head and greeted him in a good voice: "Young master, are you here to stay or to eat?"

  "Get me a room upstairs and have food sent up to my room!" Ling Qing said with raised eyebrows.

  At the same time, Ling Qingyan also took a look around... and saw that in this inn, the dozens of tables were filled with people eating and drinking, all dressed in fine clothes! Moreover, the posture and demeanor of these people showed extremely good habits. The atmosphere of this Mo Inn was completely different from the usual noise and rudeness of ordinary inns.

  Is this a place where high-society people gather?

  Ling Qing's heart skipped a beat.

  "Master, please come to the counter, accommodation requires a deposit first..."

  Xiao Er led Ling Qingyan to the counter of the Mo family inn, and then looked at the middle-aged man who was busy behind the counter and said: "Boss, this young master wants to stay...".

  The middle-aged man raised his head upon hearing this and immediately caught sight of Ling Qingyan, with a flash of light in his eyes!

  Unlike the usual rich family's pale skin, his dark bronze skin had a subtle, oppressive aura in his eyes under his perfect sword-like eyebrows. The purple long robe on his body looked simple and unadorned at first glance, but with a closer look, it was clear that this purple long robe was made from the fur of high-level demon beasts!

  As a middle-aged man who has been running an inn for many years, he could tell at a glance that the visitor was not ordinary. He picked up a book from the counter, flipped it open and introduced to Ling Qingyan with a warm smile: "This young master, take a look. Today our best Tianzi room already has two guests, this Tianzi No. 3 room..."

  After seeing the price and deposit behind the introduction, Ling Qingyan's heart moved, and he wanted to take out the silver from his hundred-year-old ring... However, in the midst of his changing mind, Ling Qingyan was shocked to discover that there was not a single penny in his hundred-year-old ring!

  No wonder I felt something was off all along...

  It turned out that this time down the mountain, he had simply forgotten to bring silver. When he realized this situation, Ling Qingyan's face suddenly froze. At this moment, the middle-aged man behind the counter was staring at Ling Qingyan, waiting for him to take out the deposit...

  Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

  Just as Ling Qingyan felt extremely embarrassed and couldn't get down from the stage, a voice came from the stairs beside the counter:

  "Brother, when did you arrive? Boss Mo, put this brother's bill on my account!"
