Chapter 90 Entering Mufeng City

At the gate of Mufeng City, it was already afternoon, and there were more and more pedestrians coming and going.

Among the pedestrians, an inconspicuous and petite figure walked into the city along with the flow of people.

In such a remote city, the control over the flow of people is relatively loose, and most of the guards at the city gate stand lazily in the shade.

Their main responsibility is to be wary of attacks by monsters.

Therefore, no one noticed the petite figure wearing a hood.

As Lin Yuexi walked, she looked around with her peripheral vision. She was always vigilant to prevent herself from being discovered.

“The city here is really barren, there isn’t even a decent thing~~”

"I still miss my Moon Demon City, and I don't know what's going on now..."

Lin Yuexi muttered.

She did not forget the purpose of her trip. There was still some time before midnight, so she had better find a place to hide first.

Time is running out to transform into human form.

Immediately, she walked into a roadside inn and came to the counter.

"Hello distinguished guest... Huh?!"

When the shopkeeper saw someone coming in, he subconsciously smiled and was about to greet him.

As a result, he saw a child wearing a hood walking in, which made him stunned.

"Little... kid..."

"Are you lost?"

The shopkeeper was also a rather enthusiastic person. Seeing this situation, he quickly squatted down and asked softly.

"I want to stay in a hotel."

Lin Yuexi said in an indifferent tone.

"ah?!"

"Stay...stay in a hotel..."

The shopkeeper also found it strange that a little girl who looked seven or eight years old came to stay in the hotel.

"Kid, did your adults ask you to come?"

"The rooms in our Xiyue Inn are very expensive..."

The shopkeeper continued.

"Stop talking nonsense, how much spiritual stones does your most expensive room cost per night?!" Lin Yuexi was a little unhappy, stretched out her little hand, took out a bulging cloth bag, and slapped it in front of the counter.

"Ten... ten spiritual stones a night..."

The shopkeeper looked through the opening of the bag and saw that it was full of spiritual stones, roughly seventy or eighty of them.

This surprised him even more.

Where did such a young child get so many spiritual stones?

What is her background...

"It's only ten spirit stones. The environment in your store shouldn't be bad~~"

Lin Yuexi didn't care much about the mere ten spirit stones.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he suddenly became anxious.

"Kid, please don't talk nonsense. Our Xiyue Inn is the best inn in the entire Mufeng City."

"Even His Highness the Third Prince stayed at our Xiyue Inn for one night. He was very satisfied with our place."

"Okay, okay, here are ten spirit stones. I want to stay here for one night." Lin Yuexi was too lazy to listen to the other party's bragging and immediately threw the ten spirit stones on the counter.

"Um...good guest..."

"Register your information here, and I will show you the room later..."

Seeing the ten spirit stones, the shopkeeper couldn't help but be stunned, but then he put a smile on his face and put away the spirit stones.

For door-to-door business, it doesn't matter if she is a child or not, just pay her anyway.

Lin Yuexi stretched out her hand and wrote three words on the notebook, Lin Xiyue.

"Xiyue... Xiyue..."

"Miss Lin is quite destined to be with me at Xiyue Inn~~"

The shopkeeper smiled politely.

"Hmph~"

"Take me to my room."

"By the way, how's the privacy here?"

Lin Yuexi asked casually.

"Guest, please rest assured that the rooms in our Xiyue Inn have been specially treated to not only soundproof them, but also to isolate certain spiritual power fluctuations. You will never be disturbed."

"That's good. I don't like to be disturbed. No one is allowed to come in without my permission~~"

Then, the shopkeeper took Lin Yuexi up to the fourth floor and walked into a room at the end.

The room is very large, nearly more than 100 square meters, and both the decoration and furniture are very luxurious. Obviously the shopkeeper is not bragging.

Lin Yuexi nodded slightly, very satisfied with this place.

"Okay, you can go out."

"Distinguished guest, I will leave now. If you have anything to do, just tell the boy." The shopkeeper left knowingly.

After he left, Lin Yuexi locked the door and carefully checked everything in the room. After making sure there was nothing abnormal, she relaxed a little.

She walked to the window and looked out.

The windows here just allow you to see the city wall in the distance.

The city wall is about ten meters high. With Lin Qingyun's strength, he can basically jump up without any effort.

Now, all we have to do is wait for nightfall.

Lin Yuexi closed the window.

…

late at night

Several gates in Mufeng City were closed.

A fifth-level warrior walked to the west gate and said to the guards: "Please stay alert when patrolling at night. If there is a monster attack, report to me immediately!!"

"yes!!"

Many guards agreed in unison.

Immediately, the fifth-level warrior took out a token from his arms and injected spiritual power into it.

The next moment, the token emitted light, and as the light lit up, a faint light curtain slowly rose above the entire city wall.

After doing all this, the fifth-grade warrior gave a few more instructions, then turned and left.

After he left, the guards immediately became lazy and stood around chatting.

“Oh, I hear these words every day, I can recite them~~”

"Monsters, monsters, there are not so many monsters these days, not to mention attacking the city."

"Hehe, that's because you are still young. I remember that 20 years ago, I saw a beast tide with my own eyes. Thousands of monsters were like crazy... There were even sixth-level monsters among them, tsk tsk~~"

"The past was the past, and the present is now. Anyway, I have been watching the gate for five years, and I haven't seen any daring monsters."

"That's right, there is still a city defense formation. If it senses the breath of a monster approaching, it will attack it on its own. With it here, what can we do? I will... find a place to take a nap~~"

"Do you think this thing will malfunction one day?!"

"Don't joke, even if you die of old age, this thing will not malfunction~~"

In the city lord's mansion, Tan Yuan walked in the courtyard with his hands behind his back. For some reason, he felt particularly irritable tonight, which made him unable to calm down.

So he simply left the room and came to the courtyard.

"Sir, you haven't slept yet~~"

The fifth-rank warrior returned to the city lord's mansion and was surprised to see Tan Yuan strolling.

"I'm just taking a walk~"

"Is there any problem with the patrol? Is the city defense array still functioning normally?"

Tan Yuan asked casually.

"Hehe, there has been no problem for so many years, so don't worry, sir."

"If you ask me, there is no need to open this city defense array every night. It consumes so many spirit stones every night to maintain its operation. It's really a waste~~"

The fifth-rank warrior complained casually.

"Be prepared for danger in times of peace. Don't think that the city defense array is unnecessary just because it is peaceful now."

"Mufeng City is the first line bordering the Dark Soul Mountains. Safety is of paramount importance."

"Go patrol again in two hours."

Tan Yuan frowned.

"Yes... yes." The fifth-rank warrior lowered his head and agreed.

After he left, Tan Yuan raised his head and looked at the full moon hanging high above his head, but his irritable heart did not get relieved.

Just then, he noticed the movement, turned his head, and saw a black shadow coming towards him.

"My lord, I'm back!"

The black shadow came to Tan Yuan and said respectfully.

"Why are you back at this time?!" Tan Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked casually.

This black shadow was the subordinate who was responsible for collecting intelligence.

He didn't understand why he chose to come back at this time. Is there something urgent? !

"My lord, Bai Wenlong and Bai Qiming of the Bai family came out of the Dark Soul Mountains and quietly returned to the Bai family."

"Our spies also brought back intelligence." The black shadow said in a serious tone.

Tan Yuan asked: "What did they do when they entered the Dark Soul Mountains?"

"Cut trees! They specifically cut down wood that contains Yin Qi, and... they made coffins from that wood in batches!!"

"Coffins!!" Tan Yuan had a bad feeling in his heart.

"When did the Bai family start the funeral business?!"

"Coffins made of Yin wood don't seem to be able to hold the dead..."

"What on earth is the Bai family planning!!"

Tan Yuan became irritable, and this feeling of being out of his control made him particularly uneasy.

"Let's go!"

"Organize people and go to the Bai family!!"

Tan Yuan said in a deep voice.
