Gliding through the air, Niu Youdao smelled sulfur before they even reached the canyon. Niu Youdao knew why there was no ice and snow in the canyon.
The group descended from the sky and landed directly at the entrance of the canyon. The warmth was completely different from the bitter cold of the icy world outside.
The melted ice and snow formed a meandering river in the middle of the canyon. Many people were coming and going in the canyon, and many people were paying attention to them. They were eye-catching because Niu Youdao and the others were wearing couriers' hats, which covered their faces.
The mountain walls on both sides of the canyon were like layers of stairs. The entrances of the caves were decorated with different patterns. There were many shops of various sects and sects.
As for the mode of existence of the shops, it was the same as in Star picking City.
Pei Niangzi and the others looked at Niu Youdao and the others from time to time. It was reasonable to say that they wore hats to resist the wind and snow outside, but they still wore them here, which made them ponder.
The two groups didn't say where they were going, but they were going in the same direction — the Rainbow Inn at the end of the canyon. The name probably came from the rainbow in the sky above the canyon. It was said that as long as it was a sunny day, the rainbow would exist forever.
The inn was like a huge wall at the end of the canyon. It didn't have any sense of beauty. Only the arched dome above seemed like it.
Below the inn was an open arch bridge, which allowed the melted snow to flow. Above the flowing water, there was indeed an arch bridge that led to the entrance of the inn above.
At the two ends of the bridge, some people were pacing back and forth, which made Black Peony and the others feel especially emotional. Like them, they had once wandered back and forth, hoping for the future. Now that they had suddenly jumped out of it, they felt all kinds of emotions. They couldn't help but look at the person walking in front, the person who had led them to jump out of it.
When they reached the entrance of the inn, Niu Youdao pulled off the ears of his hat and took off his head. Black Peony and the others followed suit.
A few hats flew out and landed under the bridge, disappearing along with the flowing water.
After entering the inn, the waiter greeted them warmly.
Niu Youdao, who always observed the surroundings, was startled to see someone he didn't expect.
The others who came in with him saw him suddenly stop and looked over.
Wei Duo, who was sitting at the side of the lobby of the inn, was also stunned. He slowly stood up and walked over with a slightly hesitant expression. He bowed respectfully and said, "Palm …"
"Scram!" Niu Youdao bluntly interrupted him.
Wei Duo was in a difficult position. He wanted to say something but hesitated. After being glared at by Niu Youdao, he finally lowered his head and left. He quickened his pace and ran out of the inn.
Pei Niangzi, Hei Peony, and the others looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
Niu Youdao did not put Wei Duo in his eyes as he walked towards the counter with Pei Niangzi and the rest.
He didn't know who Wei Duo had come with, otherwise, he wouldn't have acted like this.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, the inn is full." The shopkeeper cupped his fists behind the counter and apologized profusely. "If you are willing, why don't you take a seat at the side and wait for a while? We will give you some tea for free. Let's see if there are any guests checking out later."
Pei Niangzi asked, "Are you sure there will be people checking out?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "There should be. There are people checking in and checking out every day, but the time isn't certain."
"Young Master, then let's wait." Pei Niangzi said to the sissy. The sissy pouted his lips, a little unwilling, but he didn't say anything.
Niu Youdao knew his situation and needed a safe environment. Naturally, he had to wait.
The group sat down at the side of the lobby and a waiter quickly came over to serve tea.
The sissy suddenly said, "When there are rooms available later, I want to check in first!" As he said this, he glanced at Niu Youdao.
When these words came out, everyone was startled. They realized that this was a problem. They couldn't possibly check out so many rooms at the same time, right?
To Pei Niangzi and the rest, if there were rooms available for 'Young Master' to stay in, it was only right. However, Niu Youdao and the rest were not on their side after all, so there was no need to give way to them.
Pei Niangzi looked at Niu Youdao and said apologetically, "Young Master Li, do you think we can discuss this?"
Niu Youdao looked at the sissy's arrogant and provocative gaze and teased, "Young Master, why don't we make another bet?"
The sissy glared and said, "Bet on what?"
Niu Youdao said, "Let's bet on who will be the first to stay in the inn when there are empty rooms. The wager is still one million gold coins. Of course, you can write an IOU!"
Pei Niangzi and the rest were speechless. Another IOU, wasn't he purposely provoking them?
The sissy seemed to be going crazy. Another one million IOU, as if she would definitely lose. "Do you think I'm afraid of you? Let's bet!"
Niu Youdao immediately turned around and instructed Black Peony, "Go to the counter and pay first …"
Swoosh! Before he could finish his words, a silhouette flashed and the sissy had already appeared in front of the counter. He shouted, "Shopkeeper, I'll pay the bill first. If there's a room available, give it to us first!"
"… …"
Pei Niangzi and the rest, as well as Niu Youdao and the rest, were all dumbfounded. They realized that this woman's reaction speed was really fast!
Niu Youdao beckoned Black Peony over and whispered into her ear, "You go and register as well. Use your real names. I'll use the name that Moon Inviting Inn used, Xuanyuan Dao!"
Black Peony was startled, but she still turned around and went to the counter.
Seeing the whispering, Pei Niangzi suddenly felt that something was wrong. In any case, she felt that her young master wasn't as experienced as this Young Master Li. She felt that her young master wouldn't be able to win against this person.
As for the sissy, he had already bounced back with his hands behind his back and his head held high. When he glanced at Niu Youdao, his chin was raised high.
"Xuanyuan Dao? I wonder which one of you is Xuanyuan Dao? "
In front of the counter, Black Peony paid first and reported her name to the clerk. When the shopkeeper behind the counter heard the three words' Xuanyuan Dao ', his eyebrows jumped. He stood up and cupped his hands towards Black Peony as he asked.
Black Peony was startled. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In that instant, she knew that Daoye's bet was already in the bag. One million gold coins! Why was there such a huge difference between people? Wasn't it a little too easy for Daoye to earn money? Money was rolling in like it was a game.
Black Peony turned around and pointed at Niu Youdao.
The shopkeeper took the opportunity to identify who it was and gave a meaningful "Oh".
"Shopkeeper, if there are any vacancies, give them to us first." Black Peony didn't forget to remind him before leaving.
The shopkeeper didn't immediately agree. He only said, "It depends on the check-out situation." His gaze would occasionally glance at Niu Youdao.
When Niu Youdao, who was sitting at the side of the lobby, noticed the gaze pointing at him, the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile, but it only lasted for a moment.
The moment Black Peony left the counter, the shopkeeper also quickly left, disappearing somewhere unknown.
"Daoye, she registered first." Seeing that the shopkeeper had left, Black Peony, who had returned, was still a little worried. She leaned over and whispered into Niu Youdao's ear.
Niu Youdao muttered, "Even if she's staying, she can still rush out."
Hearing this, Black Peony felt relieved. One million gold coins was a huge sum of money!
"Since we've already registered, there's no need to wait here. Why don't we go out for a stroll?" Niu Youdao stood up and said to Pei Niangzi and the others.
Before Pei Niangzi could reply, the sissy had already said, "In your dreams!"
She stood up and walked to the front of Niu Youdao. She sneered and said, "After a stroll, everyone will have their own rooms. The matter of who's staying first and who's staying later won't be clear anymore. In your dreams!"
Niu Youdao smiled at her and said, "You're so smart!"
The sissy immediately glared at him fiercely. When the words of praise came from the other party's mouth, why did it feel like it was sarcasm? Especially when the other party's face was filled with ridicule.
At the entrance of the inn, a person walked in with large strides. After entering the lobby, he stood there like an iron tower. Wei Duo followed behind him. It was Yuan Gang.
Sweeping his gaze around, he saw Niu Youdao's back facing him at one side of the lobby. Yuan Gang walked over.
The sissy who was confronting Niu Youdao looked behind Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao turned his head to take a look. Startled, he slowly turned around.
Walking over, Yuan Gang took off the thick cotton robe he was wearing and removed the leather hat on his head. Looking at the style, it was clear that these were clothes he got from the relay station. He casually handed them over. Wei Duo who was behind him immediately went forward to receive them and hold them in his arms.
Niu Youdao's gaze fell on the clothes Yuan Gang had taken off. He pursed his lips. He knew how difficult it was for non-cultivators to withstand the harsh cold of the icy world outside. With one look at the clothes, he knew what Yuan Gang was doing. Looking for him outside, waiting for him!
"Daoye!" Standing in front of Niu Youdao, Yuan Gang called out.
The sissy's big eyes looked somewhat foolishly at the tall and big man before him. His face was as sharp as an axe and as sharp as a knife, a callous expression. Even though he was wearing clothes, he could still feel the perfect figure beneath the clothes. He could feel the explosive power contained within the clothes.
With just a glance, she could feel a strong masculine aura rushing towards her, enveloping her!
Pei Niangzi also took a glance and praised in her heart. What a man!
However, she was a little puzzled. This man addressed Young Master Li as Daoye? Could this be his real name?
Niu Youdao also looked at Yuan Gang from head to toe. He realized that Yuan Gang had changed. In just a short period of time, Yuan Gang's temperament had undergone an obvious change. It was as though he was tainted with a savage aura, giving off the feeling of a man tearing tigers and leopards apart. His physique had also undergone a slight change.
"Go back to your room and wait for me!" Niu Youdao said lightly.
There was no need to ask why Yuan Gang was here. There was also no need to ask if Yuan Gang would be staying at the Rainbow Inn. It was just like how Yuan Gang knew that he, Niu Youdao, would definitely stay at the best inn here.
Both of them understood each other too well. There were some questions that didn't need to be asked. That was why Yuan Gang had asked Wei Duo to wait in the lobby.
Yuan Gang nodded his head and turned to leave. Wei Duo hugged his clothes and followed with his head lowered.
Looking at Wei Duo following behind, Niu Youdao frowned.
The sissy's big eyes stared blankly at Yuan Gang's back as he left.
Not long after, the innkeeper arrived. He strode over and walked straight to Niu Youdao. He cupped his hands and said, "May I ask if you are Mister Xuanyuan Dao?"
