Chapter 15 A Problematic Inn

The sun is gradually setting, and the moon is about to rise.

Yu Xiaogang looked up at the sky and murmured:

Looks like we'll have to find a place to spend the night.

The carriage traveled a little further, and then they saw an inn on a small road beside the main road.

Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up with joy.

I could stay at that inn tonight.

"Young Master Xia, it's getting late. Let's go to that inn and rest for the night!"

Yu Xiaogang turned around and respectfully addressed the person inside the carriage.

"Okay," came Xia Bai's voice from inside.

After a while, the carriage followed the path and stopped in the open space of the inn.

"I'm so tired! I can finally find a place to rest." Xiao Wu stretched, looking exhausted.

She sat on horseback all day, and her bottom went numb.

Tang San was responsible for securing the horse's reins to prevent it from running away.

Ning Rongrong wisely got out of the car and stood there, unsure of what to do.

"Young Master Xia, we have arrived."

Yu Xiaogang, who was waiting beside the carriage, spoke up.

"Um."

Xia Bai reached out and pulled up the curtain, then walked outside.

Ning Rongrong looked up at Xia Bai and was momentarily stunned.

Tall and upright, with an extraordinary air about him!

Although the person in front of me is wearing a mask, I cannot see his true appearance.

But judging from his demeanor alone, Ning Rongrong felt that his appearance was definitely not bad.

Moreover, the moment I first saw him, I couldn't help but feel a longing to get closer to him.

With him by my side, I feel inexplicably at ease.

Even the initial shock gradually subsided.

Xia Bai ignored Ning Rongrong, whose gaze was becoming increasingly strange, and instead looked toward the inn in the distance.

In this remote place, far from any village or shop, someone actually runs an inn.

Unless the owner has lost his mind, then this is a rip-off!

"Heh, interesting."

Xia Bai stood with his hands behind his back and walked towards the signboard that read "Yuelai Inn".

The others followed closely behind.

Ning Rongrong gradually came to her senses and shook her little head vigorously.

"What kind of time is this?! How can I still be daydreaming about someone like that?!"

"Those guys don't look like good people, I'd better run away!"

Ning Rongrong turned around, intending to sneak away.

However, a needle suddenly exploded in the tree next to her, startling Ning Rongrong so much that she screamed.

"Were you trying to run away just now?"

Hearing the icy voice behind her, Ning Rongrong quickly shook her head, her face showing an expression more miserable than crying.

"No... I... I just really need to pee, I need to go to the toilet."

"Heh, still want to go now?"

"No, no! I'm not going!" Ning Rongrong hurriedly walked towards Yuelai Inn.

As he walked, he mentally recited and cursed the entire 38-generation genealogy of the Tang family.

Tang San glanced at Ning Rongrong's retreating figure and put away the hidden weapon in his hand.

How could he not know Ning Rongrong's little scheme?

If it weren't for Young Master Xia's orders, ten Ning Rongrongs wouldn't be enough for him to kill.

Before Xia Bai and the others even entered the courtyard, a woman with a charming appearance, a black mole on the corner of her mouth, and a very good figure walked over with a slender waist.

"Oh, welcome, esteemed guests..."

The alluring woman was stunned when she saw Xia Bai, and she didn't even have time to finish her sentence.

"There are five people in total, let's check in!" Yu Xiaogang said from the side.

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, the charming woman gradually came to her senses.

"Alright...alright! Gentlemen, please follow me." The alluring woman stood beside Xia Bai, her gaze fixed on him with a languid intensity.

Enter the inn.

It's quite large inside, furnished with various tables and chairs.

In front of the counter, a man with a mustache was smiling as he sized up Yu Xiaogang and his companions.

Especially after seeing Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, the greed in his eyes was almost impossible to conceal.

However, when he turned his gaze to Xia Bai.

My little heart, however, started pounding wildly, much to my dismay.

Only after Xia Bai's figure completely disappeared around the corner of the stairs did the man with the mustache slowly come back to his senses.

"What the hell? How could I have such thoughts about a man?" The man with the mustache shook his head vigorously.

I guess it's because I didn't sleep well last night.

It's on the second floor.

Yu Xiaogang glanced at Ning Rongrong and said:

"Xiao Wu, you'll be sleeping in the same room as Ning Rongrong tonight."

"Huh? But I want to sleep alone!" Xiao Wu said, somewhat dissatisfied. She didn't want to share a room with anyone else!

Ning Rongrong nodded vigorously.

Are you kidding me?! Who would want to share a room with someone who wants to kill them?!

Don't kill yourself in the middle of the night.

"Ha! You still have the nerve to look down on me!" Xiao Wu's face turned somewhat displeased.

When she arrives, do you, a prisoner, still have the right to be picky?

After saying that, Xiao Wu didn't care whether Ning Rongrong agreed or not, and pulled her arm to walk towards the room.

Yu Xiaogang shook his head helplessly.

"Then, mistress, you can share a room with me! Young Master Xia will have a room to himself."

Tang San nodded and looked at Xia Bai.

"No problem, let's do as the master says."

After the rooms were assigned, Yu Xiaogang and Tang San also went into their rooms.

Xia Bai pushed open the door to his room and went inside.

The room was alright; there was a big bed, a table, a few chairs, and that was it.

Although it's a bit rudimentary, it's still passable.

thump thump thump...

There was a knock on the door, followed by an alluring female voice.

"Young Master Xia, I've come to bring you a water bottle."

Xia Bai pushed open the door and saw a charming woman holding a kettle, looking at him with a seductive smile.

"Please come in."

The alluring woman hummed in agreement and placed the kettle on the table.

"Young Master Xia, where are you headed?" the alluring woman asked curiously.

"Soto City," Xia Bai replied.

"Oh, oh." The alluring woman nodded.

"Judging from Young Master Xia's extraordinary demeanor, are they Soul Masters?"

"He is a Soul Master," Xia Bai replied.

"Oh, so you are the esteemed Soul Master!" A charming smile appeared on the woman's face.

"Then I won't disturb the Soul Master's rest any longer, I'll go down now."

"Mm." Xia Bai nodded.

In the kitchen downstairs.

"Big sister, how was the hunt this time?"

Several burly men surrounded the alluring woman and asked excitedly.

"I checked, and they're all Soul Masters! When you're having dinner later, make sure to use a strong dose of the drug." The alluring woman said somewhat worriedly.

"Don't worry, big sister! You can trust us! We'll definitely take down these prey tonight." The burly men's eyes were full of excitement.

They had just heard that among this batch of prey were two very attractive girls.

Then... hehehe!

The charming woman's thoughts were all focused on Xia Bai.

For some reason, whenever she saw Xia Bai, she felt an overwhelming urge to possess him.

She made up her mind: she would spare Xia Bai's life and have him serve her every day.
