The receptionist hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, our Emperor Suite costs 88,888 gold coins a night." It was obvious that she was telling Ji Dong how expensive the rooms he wanted to book were. Eight presidential suites would cost as much as 700,000 gold coins a day. This was probably an astronomical figure for anyone. Even the royal families of the various empires would not be so extravagant. In fact, even though this Stupid Rich Hotel was the flagship store, there were only four presidential suites in total.
To be able to stay in the Stupid Rich Hotel's presidential suites was not as simple as money. It was also a symbol of status. Every guest who had stayed in the Stupid Rich Hotel's presidential suites would also become a VIP of the Stupid Rich Hotel. The rule of the Stupid Rich Hotel was that the guests who stayed in the presidential suites had to satisfy any request as much as possible. Of course, if the value of the guest's request was too high, there would be an additional charge.
Ji Dong frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, suddenly, a surprised voice sounded, "Ji Dong, is that you?"
Then, a tall figure rushed over at lightning speed, startling the two receptionists. They only saw a blur in front of them, and there was already a person in front of them.
The person was wearing a bright yellow robe, and his hair was neatly combed at the back of his head. As soon as he appeared, four attendants immediately followed him, separating the two receptionists to the side.
Seeing this person, Ji Dong's originally calm gaze suddenly fluctuated violently, and he said, "It's you."
The yellow-clothed person suddenly grabbed Ji Dong's shoulder with both hands. His action made the students' hearts contract involuntarily. In their eyes, Teacher Ji Dong was an extremely dangerous person. In addition to admiration, there was also a deep sense of fear in their hearts. But this yellow-clothed person actually dared to directly grab their teacher Ji Dong's shoulder. How could they not be shocked?
The yellow-clothed person's eyes shone with the light of Ji Dong. Looking at Ji Dong's white hair, his lips trembled and he could not speak. He said, "Brother, where have you been all this time? How did you become like this? What happened? Do you know that everyone is very worried about you?" Because of his agitation, his voice was very loud, and it immediately attracted the attention of many people. A man dressed as a manager hurried over with a few staff members.
"Your Highness, what happened?" the manager respectfully asked the yellow-clothed person.
That's right, this yellow-clothed person was none other than Ji Dong's eldest brother, Ji Yeshang, who had been adopted into the imperial family by the Equivalent King.
Ji Yeshang didn't pay any attention to the manager. Looking at Ji Dong's dull white hair and indifferent eyes, his heart twitched. Although he hadn't grown up with this younger brother, Ji Dong was the only relative of his generation. Even though Ji Dong hadn't agreed, their common grandfather, the Prince of Equality, had long since decided that Ji Dong would be the heir to the throne.
"It's nothing, it. it. Ji Dong replied indifferently. There was no need for more people to share his pain. Besides, no one else would be able to. He was indeed very surprised to see Ji Yeshang here.
The Sun Moon Hall's students all widened their eyes. What was going on? What kind of Crown Prince was this? The Crown Prince of the Middle Earth Empire? And he called Teacher Ji Dong his little brother. Could it be … Heavens, they couldn't imagine that their teacher was a member of the imperial family, and a member of the most powerful nation on the continent, the Middle Earth Empire.
Ji Yeshang took a deep breath and said, "Little Brother, this isn't the place to talk. Come, let's find a place." He pulled Ji Dong away, but the latter didn't budge.
Ji Dong shook his head and said, "I still have to make arrangements for these students. Didn't they refuse to give me a room?"
Hearing this, Ji Yeshang's eyes shone with a cold light, and a formless pressure exploded from his body. He looked at the manager, who had come up to him, and said, "What's going on? Let's not talk about my little brother's identity first. Don't you stupid rich people have a rule to receive all kinds of guests? "
Ji Yeshang's words weren't harsh, but the manager was already sweating. Ji Yeshang was the most popular person in the Middle Earth Empire. He was the current Crown Prince, and the Emperor of the Middle Earth Empire was seriously ill. No one knew how long he could last. Moreover, apart from his identity as Crown Prince, Ji Yeshang also had the powerful Prince Pingdeng family behind him. As the eldest grandson of the Prince Pingdeng, he would undoubtedly receive the full support of the entire Prince Pingdeng family. Once Ji Yeshang inherited the throne, there was no doubt that the various powers in the Middle Earth Empire would become unprecedentedly united. Even Fatty Zhou Xiaoxiao would pay special attention to Ji Yeshang, let alone a stupid rich little manager. After all, the Middle Earth Empire was a huge entity on the continent.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness. Let me understand the situation first." As he spoke, the manager looked at the receptionist sternly and said, "What's going on? How can you stop a guest from staying in our hotel, especially such an esteemed guest? "
When the receptionist heard that Ji Dong was the younger brother of the current Crown Prince, she felt a little dizzy and hurriedly said, "Manager, it's not that I'm stopping this gentleman and his friend from staying, but we really can't satisfy this gentleman's request. He wants eight presidential suites."
"Ah?" When the manager heard this, he was also shocked.
Ji Yeshang watched suspiciously as Hyōhime moved and said, "Little brother, you want eight presidential suites, but there are only four here. To be honest, even I can't bear to stay in one. That's an astronomical price, and it's said that it costs at least a hundred thousand gold coins a day. You want eight? Are you rich? Even if you are, you shouldn't spend your money like this."
Ji Dong shook his head and said, "So there aren't enough presidential suites here. Then let's get four presidential suites and four lower level rooms. There should be enough, right?" As he spoke, he tossed a round purple card into the manager's hand. This card looked like a gold coin, and there was a picture of a fat human face on it.
The manager instinctively caught the card, and the next moment, his expression changed drastically. He was even more terrified than when he was facing Ji Yeshang. "Boss, boss …"
Ji Dong waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and make the arrangements."
"Yes." The manager didn't dare say anything else. He respectfully handed the card back to Ji Dong and turned to personally make the arrangements. This time, Ji Yeshang was dumbfounded, and the students of Sun Moon Hall looked at each other. Just how many secrets did Teacher Ji Dong have? Why were all of his identities so shocking?
"Little Brother, when did you become a stupid rich boss? This can't be true, right?" Ji Yeshang asked in confusion.
Ji Dong shook his head. "Of course I'm not a stupid rich boss, but I know their boss. Let's not talk about this. Didn't you want to find a place to talk to me? Let's go. Chen Sixuan, stay here and make arrangements for everyone. Each group will have a room, and they can't stop cultivating. You have a room, and leave one for me." This was why he wanted eight rooms.
"Okay." Chen Sixuan nodded obediently.
Ji Yeshang led Ji Dong back to the second floor of Stupid Rich. An attendant hurried up and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, the cabinet meeting is almost time. Do you think …"
After the Emperor of Middle Earth fell seriously ill, the daily affairs of the empire were managed by Ji Yeshang and his grandfather.
Ji Yeshang snorted. "Let them wait. Go to the Prince Equivalent's palace and report to His Highness that my little brother has returned."
"Yes." The attendant was secretly surprised. The Crown Prince was usually very diligent and had never been late for official business. He was also very diligent and put all his effort into governing the country. It was the first time that he was delayed because of his personal affairs. From this, it could be seen how important the identity of this white-haired young man was. However, the attendant had never heard that the Crown Prince had a younger brother. Could it be a cousin?
Ji Yeshang took Ji Dong to a luxurious room and told the attendants and waiters not to enter without being summoned.
"Little Brother, can you tell me what happened now?" Ji Yeshang asked impatiently.
Ji Dong said indifferently, "You're the Crown Prince. Don't you know what happened on Holy Evil Island?"
Ji Yeshang said, "I know, but I don't know what happened to you. The Flaming Bar Queen released the Red Lotus Heavenly Fire and took you away. Why did you only appear after so long and become like this?
"Because the Flaming Bar died." Ji Dong squeezed the words out of his mouth through gritted teeth. He suddenly became agitated, and Ji Yeshang was shocked when he heard what he said.
"What? The Flaming Bar Queen died? How is that possible? Even the dark secrets and the terrifying Myriad Lightning Calamity Realm couldn't harm her. How did she … "
Ji Dong's eyes were filled with pain. "She died to save me. She shouldn't have appeared in the human world. Did you think that she didn't have to pay a price when she used such a powerful power to save us? The Earth's Core Queen is not accepted by the God Realm. After the Flaming Bar brought me back to the core, we were attacked by the God Realm's Enforcer. Although we killed the enforcer, the Flaming Bar left. She left me forever. "
Ji Yeshang looked at Ji Dong in a daze and felt the intense pain. He couldn't speak for a long time. He didn't know how to comfort his little brother. The Flaming Bar's death had turned his hair white and lifeless. How could words comfort him?
Ji Dong slammed the table and said, "Waiter, serve wine. I want strong wine."
After a while, the wine was served. Ji Dong used the method he was most familiar with to resist the suffocating pain in his heart.
Ji Yeshang didn't stop him. After a long time, he sighed. "The heavens really are jealous of geniuses. Senior Brother Fury is like this, and so are you. This is the heavens' jealousy!"
"What happened to Senior Brother?" Ji Dong put down the wine bottle and looked at Hyōhime and Ji Yeshang.
Ji Yeshang smiled bitterly. "You were involved in the Myriad Lightning Calamity Realm, so you should know better than me how many of us who participated in the Battle of the Saint-Evil can return alive."
Ji Dong's heart clenched. "You mean, Senior Sister Ye Xin …"
Ji Yeshang nodded. "When Senior Brother Fu Shang found her, her body was covered by the charred Violet Ice Demonic Dragon. However, the power of the Myriad Lightning Calamity Realm was too terrifying. Senior Sister Ye Xin wasn't able to escape …"
Ji Dong's gaze froze. "Then, Senior Brother Fu Shang …" Ji Yeshang smiled bitterly.
Ji Yeshang smiled bitterly. "I'm afraid you won't even recognize him now. After Senior Brother Fury carried Senior Sister Ye Xin's body back to the Heavenly Stem Academy, he locked himself in his room and didn't take a single step out. However, his cries rang out for a full seven days, and when the people from the academy barged into his room, they found him unconscious with blood and tears all over his face. He slept for another seven days, and when he woke up from his grief, he buried Senior Sister Ye Xin first. Then, his entire person changed. He became quiet, drank every day, and didn't care about anything in the academy. No one dared to approach him, and he didn't care about what anyone said. Your grandmaster once came to the academy personally, but he couldn't do anything. It seemed like Senior Brother Fury had completely sealed off his heart."
Ji Yeshang's description made no one understand Fury's pain better than Ji Dong. He didn't think that the two of them could empathize with each other.
"How's the situation on the continent in the past six months?" Ji Dong drank a mouthful of wine and continued to ask.
Ji Yeshang said, "The situation of the last battle on the Holy Evil Island has been spread to the upper echelons of the continent. Now, all the empires are preparing for the war, mobilizing all the resources to train the troops and unifying the cultivation of the Devil Masters. Some of the Devil Master families that have been hidden for many years have also gradually revealed themselves. The five countries had an emergency meeting and decided to fight the enemy together. Now, there are a million troops stationed on the Holy Evil Island and setting up fortifications. The follow-up troops have set up layers of defense on the East Sea coast. They have mobilized the power of the entire continent to be ready for any changes. According to our judgment, in terms of military strength, we are not weaker than the Five Elements Continent. The key is the difference in the strength of the Devil Masters. According to the description of those who survived the Holy Evil Bird, the Heavenly Stem Saints of the Five Elements Continent not only have the ten divine weapons, but also the power of the four sacred beasts. They also have the secret of using the ten combined demon skills. The situation is not optimistic. Brother, we still need you to lead the Heavenly Stem Saints. Now, the Heavenly Stem Saints have rearranged the Saints, and they have inherited their respective crystal crowns."
"Oh? The Heavenly Stem Saints have been arranged? Who are they? "Ji Dong asked.
Ji Yeshang said, "They are all your acquaintances …"
