Su Han also felt this was inappropriate and said to the waiter, "Could you arrange another room? Or a slightly less desirable room would also be fine."

The waiter said with a forced smile, "Sir, we really don't have any left. All the regular rooms are full. We only have these two superior rooms left, and they were just checked out."

Su Han couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

Biyao, however, didn't care at all and smiled at Lu Xueqi, "Sister Lu, what are you afraid of? I'm not going to eat you. Or... are you afraid that living with me will corrupt you, this vixen?"

Lu Xueqi gave her a cold look, ignoring her provocation, and said to Su Han, "I will go to Qingyun Villa immediately."

It means she doesn't have to stay here.

Su Han shook his head: "Senior Sister Lu, your injuries have just healed, and it is not advisable for you to travel and exert yourself immediately. Besides, if you go to the other courtyard now and people ask about who you are with, it will only cause trouble. How about..." He paused, as if he had made up his mind, "I will share a room with Miss Biyao, and you can have a room by yourself, Senior Sister Lu."

Upon hearing this, both Lu Xueqi and Biyao were stunned.

Biyao's face flushed instantly, and she glared at Su Han reproachfully: "You...you wish! Who wants to share a room with you!"

Lu Xueqi's gaze suddenly sharpened as she stared at Su Han. Although she didn't speak, the chill in her eyes was almost tangible.

Su Han realized he had misspoke and quickly explained, "Please don't misunderstand! What I meant was that I could meditate and regulate my breathing in the room and give the bed to Miss Biyao. When traveling, we should act according to the circumstances. We can't have Senior Sister Lu go to the other courtyard while Miss Biyao and I stay here. If something happens, we won't be able to help each other."

His explanation was reasonable, taking into account Lu Xueqi's situation as well as safety and practical difficulties.

The coldness in Lu Xueqi's eyes faded slightly, but she still pursed her lips tightly, clearly showing her strong resistance to this arrangement.

Biyao also snorted, but her eyes flickered, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

The waiter, observing the odd combination of two women and one man, muttered to himself but maintained a forced smile: "Gentlemen, what do you think of this..."

Su Han sighed and said to the waiter, "Let's have these two superior rooms, adjacent ones will do."

After saying that, he paid the deposit directly, giving the two women no chance to object.

The waiter took the money, beaming, "Alright! Rooms number three and four, the adjacent superior rooms! Please follow me, gentlemen!"

With things having come to this point, Lu Xueqi and Biyao couldn't say anything more.

Lu Xueqi remained expressionless and led the way upstairs with the waiter.

Biyao then moved closer to Su Han, lowered her voice, and said with a hint of teasing, "Hey, Su Han, you're not doing this on purpose, are you?"

Su Han gave a wry smile, too lazy to explain, and followed them upstairs.

The waiter led the two to two adjacent rooms on the third floor.

"Please feel free to ask if you need anything, gentlemen!" the waiter said before leaving.

Only three people remained in the corridor, and the atmosphere became awkward once again.

Su Han pushed open the door to room number three in the Heavenly tier and said to Lu Xueqi, "Senior Sister Lu, you can stay in this room; it's quieter here."

Lu Xueqi glanced at him and Biyao with a complicated look in her eyes, but in the end she just nodded lightly, pushed open the door and went in, closing the door behind her.

Su Han looked at the closed door, touched his nose, and felt a headache coming on.

Biyao had already pushed open the door to room number four in the Heavenly section and walked in, looking around: "Hmm, not bad, quite clean."

Su Han followed him into the room.

The room was indeed spacious and clean, with a view of the stream flowing below from the window, and the environment was tranquil. However, there was only one bed.

Biyao walked to the bedside and sat down, swinging her legs. Looking at Su Han, who was standing somewhat awkwardly in the middle of the room, she suddenly chuckled: "Hey, Su Han, why are you so nervous? Are you afraid I'll eat you up?"

Su Han said helplessly, "Miss Biyao, please have some self-respect. I will meditate tonight, so you can rest assured."

Biyao tilted her head and looked at him: "Alright, alright, I know you're a gentleman. But I'm not an unreasonable person either." She stood up, walked to the center of the room, and pointed to the ground, "How about this, let's draw a line, this side is yours, and that side is mine. As for the bed... I'll reluctantly give you half, since this bed is big enough anyway."

Upon hearing this, Su Han nearly choked on his own saliva and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "No, no! Absolutely not!"

Seeing his embarrassed look, Biyao laughed heartily: "I was just kidding! Look how scared you are!" After laughing for a while, she said seriously, "To be honest, if you meditate, why can't I? I also gained some insights from this trip to the Netherworld, and I need to meditate to consolidate them. You can have the bed; I'll just find a futon to meditate on."

Su Han was taken aback, not expecting Bi Yao to say such a thing.

Biyao rolled her eyes at him: "What? You think we disciples of the Holy Sect only know how to indulge in pleasure? When it comes to cultivation, we work much harder than you righteous sects!"

Su Han's heart stirred slightly, and his impression of Bi Yao changed somewhat.

He nodded: "In that case, thank you for your understanding, Miss Biyao. But you should sleep in the bed; I prefer to meditate."

Biyao waved her hand: "Do as you please, but I need to take a bath and change first. I've been so uncomfortable in the cave these past few days! You're not allowed to peek!" With that, she walked behind the screen, where a bathtub and hot water were indeed prepared.

Su Han shook his head, walked to the window, opened it, and looked at the flowing water below. His mind gradually calmed down.

They come, the security.

The most urgent task is to gather information and find clues about the fragments of the Reincarnation Mirror.

He heard rustling sounds of clothes being undressed and the light splashing of water behind him. Su Han focused his attention, calmed himself, and ignored it.

About half an hour later, Biyao finished bathing and changed into a new light green dress. Her hair was still wet and draped over her shoulders, adding to her delicate and charming beauty.

"I'm all done. Do you want to go take a shower too?" Biyao asked while drying her hair with a towel.

Su Han did feel travel-worn, so he nodded: "Alright."

He called the waiter to change the water, then took a quick bath and changed into a clean blue long robe.

When he stepped out from behind the screen, Biyao's eyes lit up, and she laughed, "Oh, I didn't expect you to look so presentable after tidying up!"

Su Han was too lazy to argue with her. He walked to the futon in the corner of the room, sat down cross-legged, and said, "I'll meditate for a while. Please make yourself at home, Miss Biyao."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and began to circulate his energy.

Biyao watched as he quickly entered a meditative state, his body radiating faint spiritual energy fluctuations. She pursed her lips, walked to the couch by the bed, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate the Ghost King Sect's secret technique.

The room fell silent, with only the sound of their even breathing and the faint flow of spiritual energy.

Before we knew it, the sun had set and night had fallen.

Su Han awoke from her meditation, feeling refreshed and invigorated, all the fatigue from the past few days gone.

He opened his eyes and found that Biyao had just finished her practice and was blinking at him.

"Awake? Are you hungry? I'm starving!" Biyao said, rubbing her stomach. (End of Chapter)
