Chapter 1625: Azure Dragon Mo Clan
Azure Dragon of the East, White Tiger of the West , Vermilion Bird of the South and Black Tortoise of the North.
These four great divine beasts were the protectors of the continent and ensured the peace of the world.
The Vermilion Bird was with her, but the remaining Azure Dragon, White Tiger and Black Tortoise, where were these three?
Also, why was Crimson Flame so injured? When she met him, that egg was actually already dead. So, just how long had he waited there?
Crimson Flame had never told her any of these things and she had never thought of it before. Now that she saw white tiger, she began to ponder about this question.
Crimson Flame, there were still many things that he kept from her.
She decided that when the time came, she would definitely look for Crimson Flame to clarify all of this.
It turns out that she didn’t expect that before she even managed to ask, others would come knocking on her door bringing her into the middle of another stormy chaos.
Feng Zhi Xing and the others saw her zoning out in front of the white tiger and knew what she was probably thinking. They didn’t say anything either as they waited for her to come back to her senses.
As they stood there, the guards were unhappy.
“Hey, are you coming into the city or not? You can’t enter White Tiger City now, so you better go somewhere else.”
Those people saw that they were outsiders at a glance and those outsiders who didn’t have an invitation were unable to enter right now. These people had stood there for such a long time, which meant that they definitely didn’t have an invitation.
Sima You Yue looked away from the white tiger statue and walked in front of the guard. She took out her invitation.
“You have an invitation?” The guard was rather puzzled, but he still took the invitation and looked at it. “The Tao Clan from the Vermillion Bird City? I never heard that they were inviting anyone!”
Sima You Yue didn’t speak. She didn’t need to answer this kind of question.
As expected, after the guard ascertained the authenticity of the invitation, he returned it to her and said, “So you’re here to attend the Crimson Pearl Convention. In that case, you may enter.”
Sima You Yue smiled at him and said a word of thanks. Then, she led her men away.
“The guards of this White Tiger City are pretty decent. That proves that the people in White Tiger City shouldn’t be too bad either.” Su Xiao Xiao said.
“When we went out for a spin, we heard that the people of Vermilion Bird City and white Tiger City had rather strained relations, but while we were considered to have come from the Vermilion Bird City, they didn’t make things difficult for us.” Han Miao Shuang said.
“That works as well?”
“That’s right. In any case, Vermilion Bird City does have some powers whose cultures are pretty bad. So I’m guessing that they must have done some hateful things.”
“”We merely received their invitation to participate in the competition, so they naturally wouldn’t make things difficult for us.” Sima You Yue said, “However, this White Tiger City really is pretty white…”
The houses here seemed to have been constructed from white stones. There would occasionally be a splash of color, but those were rare.
“Let’s find a place to stay.” Huang Ying Ying said.
And so, they walked around for a day but even though they were in the city all the way from day to night, but they didn’t find a single empty inn.
Apart from outsiders, there were people who had come from other places. That was why the inns were all packed.
As for the inns that were not completely filled, those rooms had already been booked in advance. Hence, they were not allowed to rent them.
“Let’s ask this one. If that doesn’t work, we have no choice but to rough it out on the streets.” Han Miao Shuang said tearfully.
“Give it a try. There must be a way.” Sima You Yue didn’t expect the inns here to be so popular.
They entered the inn and saw the Innkeeper behind the desk. Before they spoke, they heard the Innkeeper say, “My apologies, guests. Our inn has already been reserved.”
“Reserved again?” This wasn’t out of their expectations.
“Sigh, it seems like we really have to rough it out on the streets. It’s the first time in my life that I have to sleep on the streets.” These people had lived considerably luxurious lives. Having to sleep on the streets now made their expressions rather ugly.
“Did you guys not manage to get a room?” A refreshing voice came from the side. Everyone lifted their heads to look over and saw a lady dressed in a yellow skirt, walking down the stairs.
The Innkeeper looked at the lady and bowed, saying, “Lady Xue Wu, what are you doing downstairs?”
“I’m missing the flavour of tea, so I wanted to take a look at the tea house.” Mo Xue Wu replied. Then, she turned to Han Miao Shuang and said, “You said just now that you would have to sleep on the streets?”
“We’ve been looking for inns all day, but they’re either fully filled or have been reserved.” Han Miao Shaung said with a shrug, looking helpless.
“This kind of thing happens all the time during the Crimson Pearl Convention. Didn’t you guys reserve an inn before you came?” After saying this, Mo Xue Wu felt like she had been a bit rude, “My apologies, I didn’t notice that you were outsiders. Did you just arrive on the island?”
“We did.”
“It’s no wonder you were not familiar with this.” Mo Xue Wu said, “I’m afraid that there aren’t many inns in the entire White Tiger City.”
Sima You Yue and the others exchanged glances. It turns out that was really the outcome.
“Why don’t we do this? Innkeeper, we seem to have a few rooms extra. Just give it to them.” Mo Xue Wu said.
“As long as Young Miss Xue Wu agrees, then that’s no problem. However, we don’t have enough rooms. You guys have to pair up and share a room with two people to a room.”
“That’s no problem. It’s better than sleeping out in the streets. This isn’t a big deal.” Su Xiao Xiao said.
“We’ll have to thank Young Miss Xue Wu, then.” They were really grateful towards this lady.
“I’m called Mo Xue Wu, you can just call me Xue Wu.” Mo Xue Wu smiled, “You guys can go ahead and stay in them first. In any case, we’ve all come to join the Crimson Pearl COnvention and I might have to come look for you guys to discuss anything. I’m going to buy some herbs so I’ll be leaving now.”
After speaking, she smiled at everyone before passing them as they paid for the rooms.
“Innkeeper, who was the young lady from before? She’s so nice!” Han Miao Shuang asked.
“Tha’is the Young Miss Mo Xue Wu from the Azure City’s Mo Clan. The Mo Clan is one of the kindest clans. Our inn was reserved by the Mo Clan.” Innkeeper said, “Since Young Miss Xue Wu has agreed, you guys can come with me. I will arrange your rooms.”
The kindest clan? The implication of the words said by the innkeeper was too subtle was it!
However, Mo Xue Wu was really a kind person.
“The others of the Mo Clan are staying in the rooms above. Only a few rooms on this side remain.” Innkeeper said, “The lights in these rooms aren’t too good and are a little small, which is why they are empty. However, they are still very clean.”
“It’s fine as long as they are clean. The other things don’t matter.” Huang Ying Ying said.
Because there weren’t enough rooms, in the end, Grandfather and Grandmother roomed together, Master and Father shared one, Su Xiao Xiao and Jiang Jun Xian shared one, Sima You Yue and Han Miao Shuang shared one while Great Master Ji and the child shared one.
They had just settled down when a bustling noise came from outside. They looked out the window and saw that the Young Masters of the Mo Clan had returned.
The Innkeeper told them about how Mo Xue Wu had kept some strangers and those young masters merely furrowed their eyebrows lightly without saying anything. They didn’t get others to chase them away.
“It seems like the words of the innkeeper were right. The Mo Clansmen are all rather kind.” Han Miao Shuang said as she closed her windows.
“With absolute power, they will not be afraid of evil.” Sima You Yue said with a smile.
