Chapter 110 The Little Girl Selling Spirit Bullets
A small border town called "Yunyang City"...
"Manager, bring two of the best guest rooms!"
"Not short of money!"
"Oh, esteemed guests!"
"You've come at a really bad time. Our inn only has one room left."
"Shopkeeper, are you trying to fool us?"
"A small inn in a remote border town is fully booked?"
"Although it's just two people sharing a room, I don't mind."
"I'm just worried that the woman beside me might be misunderstood when we go out in the future!"
"So... there really is only one left?"
"Absolutely true!"
At this moment, Lin Que was looking at the smiling innkeeper with a suspicious expression.
A moment later, he said helplessly to Fairy Cai Li beside him, "Isn't it a coincidence? All the rooms ahead are already booked."
"This is the fifth inn, and there's only one room left."
"How about... we make do with this?"
After emerging from the underground, Lin Que and Fairy Cai Li traveled all the way to Yunyang City.
It is understood that Yunyang City is located at the border between the Lieyang Empire and the Yunmeng Empire. Logically speaking, it should be a remote border region with a sparse population.
To their dismay, of the five inns in town they inquired, only this one had a room available, but it was only one room.
Because it's a small border town, this is also the last inn in town.
Furthermore, it was already night when they arrived, so if they didn't make a decision soon, they would have to sleep on the streets that night.
Fairy Cai Li raised an eyebrow and looked at Lin Que, saying, "Are you planning something bad?!"
"Don't forget that I am your elder!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Que protested, "You can doubt my character, but you can never question my judgment!"
"Unless you reveal your true appearance!"
"Hi~!"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch!"
"I was wrong, please forgive me, fairy!"
Lin Que had only spoken half a sentence when Fairy Cai Li angrily grabbed his ear and twisted it!
The innkeeper interrupted the two and asked, "Gentlemen, do you still need this room?"
"If you don't want it, this inn will have to close down."
"Yes!" Fairy Cai Li tossed two low-grade spirit stones to the shopkeeper and then said to Lin Que, "I want to see if you little brat are really that audacious."
After receiving the spirit stones from Fairy Cai Li, the innkeeper happily took out a key from the counter drawer and handed it to her.
Then they went to pack up and close the shop.
Lin Que rubbed his ears and said aggrievedly, "How could I dare, fairy?"
"Besides, how could I, a mere Innate Realm cultivator, possibly defeat a Golden Core cultivator like you?"
"Ha!" Fairy Cai Li crossed her arms and said, "You make it sound like I don't know your strength, and besides, I'm still injured."
"It'll only last one night. After tonight!"
"When you get back to the sect, don't you dare go around telling everyone this, you brat!"
"Otherwise, hmph! You know what I mean!"
"Hey, I know, I know." Lin Que waved his hand and said, "I'm not a lecherous ghost. You make it sound like I'm so thirsty. I've already said, you'd be more like it if you showed your true face."
Upon hearing this, Fairy Cai Li clenched her fists, then relaxed them.
He turned around, tossed Lin Que's long black hair aside, and went upstairs on his own.
Seeing this, Lin Que quickly followed.
Following the door number on the key, the two arrived at a guest room on the third floor, opened the door, and went inside.
Once inside, the two of them were dumbfounded!
The room was decorated mainly in pink tones, and it was filled with a sweet atmosphere.
Even the bed was shaped like a heart.
Lin Que chuckled somewhat awkwardly, "Ha...haha...this inn is...quite charming."
At this moment, Fairy Cai Li, with a gloomy face, looked at Lin Que and said, "Aren't you quite happy?!"
Having said that, he turned and left!
Lin Que quickly asked, "Hey, where are you going?"
As the glass fairy walked away, she said, "I'm not staying here! I'd rather sleep on the streets tonight!"
Seeing this, Lin Que quickly stepped forward and grabbed her, saying, "Hey, hey, hey~~~ please don't do that. It's not proper for a sick person to sleep on the street."
"Although I don't mind, if word gets back to the sect, I'm afraid others will say that I'm mistreating Peak Master Biyun?"
Upon hearing this, Fairy Cai Li immediately turned around and glared angrily!
Lin Que scratched his head and smiled, then continued, "Besides, what if something happens to you, a woman, sleeping on the street?"
"Alright, alright, we'll make do for tonight."
"I'll just sleep on the floor if necessary."
"Good boy/girl!"
Fairy Cai Li said incredulously, "You're supposed to sleep on the floor, do you really want to sleep in the bed?"
Damn it!
Why shouldn't I deserve to sleep in a bed!
Although Lin Que thought this way, in order to appease Fairy Cai Li, he could only say nice things to her.
Finally, after much persuasion from Lin Que,
The Fairy of Colored Glass agreed to make do for tonight, but she declared that it would only be for tonight!
Moreover, after this incident, you can't mention it to anyone.
Only after Lin Que repeatedly assured him did he turn around and go back to his room.
After taking turns bathing, the two rested.
Although they were in the same room, Lin Que didn't have the energy to think about anything else; he was exhausted these past few days.
Fortunately, there were extra mats in the room. After spreading them on the floor and lying down, Lin Que fell asleep not long after.
But Fairy Cai Li is in trouble!
She had never been in a room with any man before, even though she was a patient at the moment.
I know I need to rest well to recover faster.
But she tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.
I want to meditate and cultivate myself, but I can't calm my mind; my emotions are very complicated.
Lying in bed, she gently bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, her eyes sparkling like stars.
An hour later...
Fairy Cai Li sat up abruptly, looked at Lin Que who was sleeping soundly, and suddenly shouted, "Lin Que!!!"
“Wake up!!!”
Lin Que, who was fast asleep, was startled awake!
He asked in a daze, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Has the general gone south again?!"
He then realized that Fairy Cai Li had deliberately woken him up, and he said angrily, "Are you sick or something? Can't I get some rest?"
Upon hearing this, Fairy Caili chuckled and said with a smile, "That's right, I am indeed sick right now."
Lin Que was speechless upon hearing this.
Well, she wasn't wrong; she is indeed a patient right now.
With a helpless expression, he surrendered and said, "Fine, fine, then tell me why you woke me up."
At that moment, Fairy Cai Li pouted as if in a huff and told Lin Que the reason, which left Lin Que completely astonished!
The Glass Fairy has such an adorable side?!
"Kid, I can't sleep right now, what should I do?"
Lin Que said with a shocked look, "What does your insomnia have to do with me!"
"It's not like I can't sleep!"
"I don't care! If I can't sleep, you can't sleep either!" Fairy Cai Li said, glaring at him.
Seeing Fairy Cai Li's current willful appearance, Lin Que could only sigh helplessly!
Alas~!
It seems we need to think of a solution, otherwise he won't be able to sleep tonight.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Que said to her with a slightly tired expression, "Alright then, I'll tell you a story, that should help you sleep better."
Upon hearing this, Fairy Cai Li looked astonished!
"You can tell stories?!"
"That's really amazing!"
After saying that, he became somewhat expectant.
"If you want to fall asleep, don't make a sound or interrupt me!" Seeing her curious look, Lin Que lay down and began to tell a story.
"The story I'm going to tell you today is: The Little Girl Who Sold Spirit Bullets."
"Once upon a time, there was a little girl whose parents died early, and she lived with her grandmother from a young age."
“She was very sensible from a young age and often helped her grandmother go to the city to sell spirit bullets to supplement the family income.”
"However, this good fortune didn't last long!"
"One winter, her grandmother also left her."
"This winter is so cold, so very cold..."
"But she had no choice but to come out and sell spirit bullets because she hadn't eaten for a day and a night."
"In this cold city, many cultivators come and go, but not one of them is willing to buy her Yuanling Bullet."
"She was so cold that she could only huddle alone in a corner, starving and her face full of grief and sorrow."
"As she shivered from the cold, she thought of her grandmother again..."
At this moment, Fairy Caili was completely engrossed in listening, her heart clenching with worry. She hurriedly asked with a concerned expression, "And then! And then!"
Lin Que sighed and continued, "Then, that little girl was in the cold wind."
"Ignite all the elemental energy bullets on my body."
"Because the power of the Elemental Bullet is too great, therefore..."
That night, everyone in the entire city saw her grandmother...
The fairy's forehead was instantly covered with black lines!
Suddenly, I felt really unwell...
