Chapter 1120: Checking Into the Hotel
Chapter 1120: Checking Into the Hotel
Ten minutes later, the five beautiful women and two handsome men arrived directly at the VIP Grand Hotel.
The VIP Grand Hotel is a five-star hotel, and now Chen Tianlong is considered a wealthy man, after all, the registration fee for this trial almost went up to ten million per person.
Originally it was two million, but after the Celestial Pill Sect changed the timing, they also altered the registration fee. After all, this trial was different from before, and many people might take this opportunity to break through their levels.
This way, from the market’s prediction, a breakthrough to above Celestial Dao requires at least three Qi Gathering Pills. It’s limited to between Celestial Dao one star and three stars. Calculating carefully, one Qi Gathering Pill costs a million, so to rise one level, you need at least thirty million. Moreover, using too many Qi Gathering Pills may have side effects, slowing down the system that absorbs Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Therefore, this ten million registration fee is quite worthwhile, at least for Chen Tianlong and the others, it’s a sure win without a loss.
"Hey everyone, how should we arrange the rooms?" Chen Tianlong faced a dilemma. Currently, among the Five Elements Yinzi, two have confirmed relationships with him, namely Li Bingshuang and Lin Wushuang.
However, one is someone he announced he would marry, and the other is his girlfriend. It wouldn’t be appropriate to have both sleep together, right? It seems a bit improper.
"Chen Tianlong, you stay with Wushuang, I’ll room with Liu Ting, it makes for a better arrangement." Li Bingshuang is quite considerate, understanding that Chen Tianlong might be in a difficult position. As his future wife, she wouldn’t do anything that Chen Tianlong dislikes.
Hearing this, Chen Tianlong was quite touched. On the day he promised Li Bingshuang to marry her, he didn’t regret it one bit.
She’s obviously not fighting for favor with anyone, yet silently cares for Chen Tianlong, making one both love and cherish her.
"Or, Bingshuang, why don’t you stay with Chen Tianlong, I’ll sleep with Xiaoyu." Lin Wushuang felt a little shy, although she’s Chen Tianlong’s girlfriend, everyone accepts Li Bingshuang as well, with Wu Mengting not around, they all see each other as equals.
"I think, Tianlong, you should just take in both Wushuang and Bingshuang, stop with the back and forth. If you two keep pushing, I’ll just sleep with Tianlong and let you secretly cry." Lu Xiaoyu stepped forward to disrupt the situation.
Honestly speaking, seeing how good Chen Tianlong is to Lin Wushuang, Lu Xiaoyu felt an emptiness inside. She used to joke about having a big wife and a little wife, but when encountering such a situation, Lu Xiaoyu still felt a bit at a loss.
It seemed like Chen Tianlong never seriously discussed being together with her.
"Ahem, Xiaoyu, stop messing around. I think I’ll stay with Wushuang. There are a lot of things I’d like to ask her." Chen Tianlong thought of Wu Mengting, feeling a bit odd, as this person clearly occupied an important place in his life, yet he had no impression at all.
"Ah?"
Hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned; then they went off in pairs.
Li Bingshuang nodded, showing no disappointment. She chose to share a room with Liu Ting, while Lu Xiaoyu was with Bing Ruxue; as for the third senior brother, of course, he would sleep alone.
"Four rooms, please," said Chen Tianlong.
"Alright, sir, please wait a moment." The service staff smiled and began the check-in process.
Standing at the front desk, Chen Tianlong paid for the rooms and, with keys in hand, led the group upstairs. Just as they turned a corner, another group of three arrived. If Chen Tianlong were there, he would surely recognize them; it was Yang Xinru, her brother Yang Fan, and their uncle, Yang Tai.
"We need three rooms," Yang Xinru said, checking out the surroundings and liking the hotel’s environment, especially since it was close to the Celestial Pill Sect, less than a ten-minute drive, making it convenient for registration.
Yang Xinru had the same idea as Chen Tianlong; they both came here to acclimate and investigate. They couldn’t just recklessly attend the trial and risk getting stuck without knowing.
Soon, Chen Tianlong entered the room, put away Lin Wushuang’s luggage, and the two lay on the bed.
This wasn’t Lin Wushuang’s first time being alone with Chen Tianlong; however, being in a new place, she inexplicably felt a bit excited.
"Chen Tianlong, do you think the people from the Celestial Pill Sect will make things difficult for us during the trial?" Lin Wushuang merely wanted to find a topic to chat about with Chen Tianlong. After all, lying together made her somewhat nervous.
"Probably, but according to the rules of the Celestial Pill Sect’s trial, they won’t dare to mess with us as long as we follow the rules," Chen Tianlong said calmly. He never cared about what might happen in the future or, rather, he had already prepared for it.
After lying down together for a while, they gradually fell asleep.
By the time Lin Wushuang woke up, Chen Tianlong had already left the room, leaving a note beside her. She quickly picked it up to read. It said: "Wushuang, don’t worry about me. I’ve gone to the Celestial Pill Sect to check things out and look for Mo Jing. I can’t stay calm without news of my sister."
After reading the note, Lin Wushuang pouted. Chen Tianlong must have acted alone to prevent them from following him.
At the base of the Celestial Pill Sect’s walls.
Faced with tall walls, one couldn’t help but see it as palace-like. It was evident how wealthy and powerful the Celestial Pill Sect was in the Five Elements Mountain Range, even surpassing the local government in influence, reaching an extent defying heaven.
In the Five Elements range, neither the army nor the police are effective. After all, the Celestial Pill Sect has five thousand disciples, over two hundred at the Celestial Dao level. Ordinary military or police can’t compare to cultivators.
Not to mention fighting one against a hundred, even a thousand isn’t out of the question.
If at Celestial Dao level seven stars, one could even charge through military forces, dodging guns and bullets with ease.
Therefore, it’s not surprising the Celestial Pill Sect has such a grand residence.
"Heh, do you think these walls can stop me? Not a chance." Chen Tianlong sneered, using his strength to climb directly over the seven or eight-meter-high wall.
Upon entering the Celestial Pill Sect, the place was heavily guarded, with patrols of two or three disciples every fifty meters, possibly due to the upcoming trial, making security stringent.
Had it not been for Chen Tianlong’s agility, he might have been caught at several points.
Sprinting all the way, Chen Tianlong reached the residential area and came to the main hall of the Celestial Pill Sect. The place was under renovation, bustling with activity, full of excitement.
After searching for a while to no avail, Chen Tianlong had a thought. He hid behind a pillar, and when a Celestial Pill Sect disciple passed by, Chen Tianlong knocked him out with a hand chop.
Ten minutes later, Chen Tianlong reappeared, but he was in a different guise this time.
After a slight disguise, Chen Tianlong walked boldly down the road, greeting everyone. Since everyone was busy preparing the trial, they didn’t pay much attention to him.
