Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 330: The Inn

When Bai Rouyun stood outside the Lingcao Pavilion, she could not help but feel that everything was very confusing. She had initially wanted to keep a low profile and not draw attention to herself since her background was lacking, but now she had a Spirit Crystal Card in her possession and an identity token that would bring her many benefits.

Although Sun Junmeng had not explained his origin, Bai Rouyun was smart enough to know that he had no reason to trick her, so he must have wanted to genuinely help her.

The initial plan had involved keeping a low profile and ensuring that no one would find any interest in robbing her as she did not have anyone backing her up; especially since her personal strength was not enough to face off against many of the experts living in the Wushi Continent.

However, now that she had the identity token from the Lingcao Pavilion, she felt that it would be stupid not to use these benefits when receiving them for free.

"Well then, why don't we go find an inn and book a good quality room. Then, we should order a lot of delicacies and ask the staff to deliver them to the room so we can bring out all your siblings. That way, we can all enjoy a good meal and discuss our next course of action."

Bai Rouyun was gently rubbing the vine that was wrapped around her wrist and smiled slightly. Although she was willing to live frugally, she would naturally not refuse better accommodations when having the opportunity to do so.

Xiao Hua also swayed its leaves slightly on her wrist to show its happiness with her words. Although she had to keep a low profile for now, the Golden Emperor Vine was still trying to display her eagerness for food, and for getting to be with her Brother Mao again.

Bai Rouyun's mood was much better after knowing that she could live lavishly until her husband or cousin located her, so she could not help but hum a song happily as she strode through the busy streets.

Due to the sudden change in the schedule and the early appearance of the market, the city was crowded and many were full of anticipation as they tried to strike a good deal, while some were depressed by the loss they would have to take from this change.

In the middle of this busy crowd, no one noticed Bai Rouyun's lithe figure slipping through the horde of people like a fish navigating through the sea. She was not troubled by the many people, nor was she delayed by the crowded areas, but simply managed to slip around elegantly and beautifully, naturally and gracefully.

The Lingcao Pavilion was located in the middle of the city, and the more upscale inns were also around the center square, so Bai Rouyun found a good place quite quickly, after managing to get through the most crowded part of the market.

The inn that Bai Rouyun had chosen seemed to be one of the more up-scale ones that could be found within the Forgotten City. It was not one of the bigger inns, but it paid more attention to quality and comfort than the number of customers it could accommodate.

Although there were bigger and more luxurious inns in the city, Bai Rouyun liked this one the most as it would allow her to live comfortably, but without also attracting too much attention.

Many of the younger generation geniuses would prefer bigger inns, as they could mingle with one another and get noticed, but even if Bai Rouyun had gotten this strange backer, she still wished to keep a profile as low as possible while at the same time not sacrificing her comfort.

Bai Rouyun did not stay outside the inn for long. She was confident and calm as she stepped through the entrance and entered into the dimly lit ground floor.

To the right side of the door was a reception area where those who wished to book a room could go. The stairs leading to the rooms upstairs were also on the right side, while on the left side there was a counter and the restaurant. The clearing in the middle of the room led out to the kitchen and the staff-areas, so even though this inn had both a restaurant and accommodations, the two were split apart and thus would not interfere much with one another.

The quality of the inn was good, and Bai Rouyun could not help but nod her head approvingly as she looked at the high-quality materials used that seemed comfortable and luxurious but not gaudy.

The scent that wafted out from within the restaurant was also tempting, and the delicate balance between various flavors made the smell of the food seem even more mouthwatering, so Bai Rouyun could not help but long for what she would be ordering later.

Even so, she did not hesitate to head towards the counter for those who wanted to check into a room. She was hungry, but firstly she had to ensure that they had a place where they could all eat together.

"Hello, how may I help you?" The clerk behind the counter was polite but not humble; he appeared proud but not arrogant.

It was clear that he had no prejudice against Bai Rouyun at all, and merely wished to do his job well.

"Hello. What are the most spacious room you have available?" Bai Rouyun could not help but feel happy when she noticed that even the staff was of good quality.

"We have rooms available for any kind of customer. There are individual rooms where you can rest on your own. These rooms do not have much space, but they do have a bed, a chair, and a desk. It is also possible to have a wooden barrel with warm water prepared for a bath, if required, but there is no extra space within these rooms.

"There are three types of double rooms, and they are also ranked after the size and quality of the furniture. Finally, we have three individual courtyards at the back, but they are, naturally, the most expensive."
