Chapter 777 The Legend of the Dark River 2
"Long time no see, Su Muyu. Are you here for the auction too?"
"The rules of the Dark River dictate that our mission cannot be revealed to outsiders," Su Changhe said with a smile.
Li Hanyi wasn't particularly interested either. She took out a five-hundred-tael silver note and placed it on the counter: "Get a room, quick."
"Okay, please wait a moment, it will be ready soon."
One of the women handed Li Hanyi a card and then gestured for her to enter towards a wall.
"Miss Li, you can go directly to your room by taking your room card. If you want to leave, just think about it and you will appear in the lobby."
Su Changhe looked at it and said, "Your inn is quite interesting; the rooms are accessed by going inside the wall."
Li Hanyi walked straight over and said, "I want to see what's so special about this place, all this fancy stuff."
She walked up to the wall and stepped inside without stopping.
All anyone saw was that wall radiating golden light, as if there were an invisible door; once people went inside, they returned to normal.
"Su Muyu, this place is quite interesting. Let's spend a little more money to stay here." Su Changhe was quite interested in the door.
Su Muyu thought about her wallet: "The cost of this trip..."
"I'll pay, I'll pay, but we're only booking one room. Give me a room that costs two hundred taels."
Su Muyu naturally had no objection; he was short of money and had no other choice.
"Okay, guest. Here is your room key. Please keep it safe. This way, please."
"Let me try it first." Su Changhe looked at the room card in his hand; it was hard and he couldn't tell what material it was made of.
There was only the four large characters "Qingyun Inn" written on it, and nothing else.
He walked towards the wall first, felt the room card flash, and after entering, he felt a blur before his eyes and was in the guest room.
Su Muyu followed closely behind, and the two of them were looking around at the inn rooms they had never seen before.
City Lord's Mansion
Yunshang went out of her own courtyard, carrying a booklet in her hand, and walked towards the neighboring courtyard.
She had just passed through the corridor and archway when she saw a person lying on a chaise longue in the courtyard, sunbathing.
Even with her eyes closed, the woman on the couch was undeniably beautiful.
She wore a dark green, light gauze ancient costume dress, as dazzling as a deep pool bathed in sunlight. The skirt cascaded down from her waist in layers, making her skin appear as smooth as jade.
Her hair was loosely tied in a bun, held only by a dark green jade hairpin.
"Master, please take a look at the items to be auctioned at this auction, as well as the order of the auctions and the prices. Is there anything that needs to be changed?"
Yunshang walked over and sat down, placing the booklet on the stone table in front of Fengling.
Feng Ling, also known as Zhong Ning, opened her eyes and waved her hand, and the booklet flew to her and opened automatically.
"Antidote pill, disguise pill, barrier-breaking pill, protective shield, marrow-cleansing pill, flying machine."
"Okay, that's all. As for the order, it can be as you arrange."
Yunshang nodded in agreement, and then said, "Among the people who came this time, I guess not only those who came for the auction, but also those who came for the master."
"I know, but I'm too lazy to fight them."
“Yunshang can fight in place of her master.”
Both of them knew that the barrier had been attacked no less than a dozen times in the past two days, but they were all just probing attacks, so they didn't pay any attention to it for the time being.
Feng Ling thought for a moment and said, "We'll see when the time comes."
The thought of this side quest gave her a headache.
Xiao Qi said, "Host, are you sure you want to sell these things? If you do, all the forces might be eyeing you and Qingyun City."
"What's there to be afraid of? Even if my cultivation is suppressed, no one in this world is my match."
"Don't you find this troublesome?"
"If the mission is to make me the world's richest person, then trouble is unavoidable."
This time, she came to the film and television world of "Dark River Chronicles". The plot mainly tells the story of the internal power struggles and conflicts of the Dark River, the number one assassin organization in the martial arts world.
The original owner of Feng Ling was just an ordinary, weak woman whose parents died early and whose health was also poor.
When I first arrived, the original owner died because she didn't eat well and was physically weak.
So her only obsession is to become a very rich person and live a life where she can eat and drink to her heart's content.
However, there is no specific definition of "very rich"; the task given by the system is to become the richest person.
To be the richest person in a martial arts world, you definitely need to be a master of martial arts. Putting aside everything else, your martial arts skills are definitely number one.
So afterwards she went around scouting locations, spending a year (playing around) to choose a city and renamed it Qingyun City.
At the beginning, there were definitely many people who were not convinced, so there were quite a few fights, and naturally, he won easily.
However, those who came could only be considered mid-level experts; the real experts were still observing.
This was the third month after she took over Qingyun City, and the second time she had made a splash in the martial arts world by holding an auction.
The auction items alone, including the antidote pill that can cure all poisons and the breakthrough pill that can help one break through realms, attracted forces from all sides.
She created the barrier not only because people kept breaking into it and finding it annoying, but also to deliberately attract people.
They wanted to make Qingyun City famous quickly through unconventional methods.
The inn's furnishings were the same; the entire inn was a cave she had created, which could be enlarged or shrunk, using its unique features to attract people to stay, make money, and gain fame.
The inn utilizes space-folding technology, creating countless rooms that can accommodate many people.
The facilities inside are a combination of modern and ancient styles, and people enter and exit the rooms through teleportation arrays.
The people living inside are guaranteed absolute safety; even if an assassin comes, they won't be able to find where anyone lives.
Qingyun Inn
Su Changhe and Su Muyu walked around the inn's rooms, following the instructions to figure out the use of everything.
As assassins, this was the first time they had spent so much time on an inn.
The first thing you see when you open the door isn't a corridor, but a barrier that you can't escape from. However, if you silently think "go out," you can directly reach the lobby downstairs.
You can see the street scene outside the window, but people outside can't see inside or come in.
The room appears to be at least two stories high, and it even has a large bathtub. I've never seen a bathtub built upstairs before.
Needless to say, the facilities are excellent; the water comes out with the push of a button; the toilets are clean and bright; and there are even mirrors that reflect every detail.
“These are somewhat similar to the Mu family’s strange methods, but even more amazing. I still can’t figure out how they were created,” Su Changhe said, lying on the sofa.
Feeling the texture of the sofa, he exclaimed, "You know what, this chair is soft and quite comfortable to lie on. Could it be that the city lord of Qingyun City enjoys tinkering with these strange and ingenious tricks?"
Following the instructions, Su Muyu opened the jade tea canister on the table and used a machine to fill it with hot water to brew a pot of tea.
