Chapter 90: Chapter 90 - Another Encounter With Ju Ri (5)

“Elder Qiu, you will be staying in this Elegance Lagoon Pavilion. The entire fifth floor is for your academy.” Elder Yu pointed at a six-story luxurious restaurant.

The Elegance Lagoon Pavilion was one of the best inns in Lunar Capital, with both meals and lodging. The first and second floors were for the restaurant, and the third to sixth floors were for lodging. The entire inn was said to be the most luxurious in terms of exterior and interior decoration. Moreover, Elegance Lagoon Pavilion was owned by the Huo family.

“Thank you for your effort in making the arrangements, Elder Yu,” Elder Qiu said gratefully.

Everyone then entered the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion.

“Elder Qiu, how much does it cost to stay here for a day?” a student couldn’t help asking curiously after they reached the fifth floor of the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion. This place was really too luxurious!

“It’s enough for ordinary families to live for several years. We stay here for free, but we have to pay for our meals ourselves,” Elder Qiu explained. Even though he had expected that the accommodations provided by the Lunar Shadow Academy wouldn’t be too shabby, he didn’t expect their lodging to be the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion. Their academy was already considered very rich, but it would be a little unbearable to eat here continuously for a month. Moreover, he didn’t bring that much money!?Ah, what should I do?! We can’t stay here but eat outside, right? The entire Heavenly Phoenix Academy would be disgraced!

“Feng Da, arrange rooms for them,” Leng Ruoxue ordered.

“Yes, Miss. Come with me,” Feng Da said to everyone.

“Elder Qiu, what’s the matter?” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help asking when she saw Elder Qiu struggling.

“I’m afraid we don’t have enough money…” Elder Qiu said awkwardly.?The Lunar Shadow Academy is really too despicable. They actually arranged for us to stay here.?In fact, no matter which academy was the host, they would generally not arrange for the major academies to stay in such top-notch lodging. It was obvious that the Lunar Shadow Academy was up to no good and wanted to see the Heavenly Phoenix Academy become a joke.

“Elder Qiu, is this worth you struggling over? We aren’t the only academy staying here. If something like this happens to us, it will happen to the other academies as well.” Leng Ruoxue smiled and comforted him.

“Yes, in addition to our academy, there are also the Rising Dragon Academy, Land Shine Academy, and Flying Bird Academy. Except for the Rising Dragon Academy, it’s impossible for the other two academies to have meals here every day.” Feng Moran also comforted him. He had already found out that a total of four academies were staying here when he arrived.

“How can those academies compare to ours? Our academy is one of the three major academies on the Ling Feng Continent. It would be very embarrassing if we stayed here and went out to eat,” Elder Qiu said. The Heavenly Phoenix Academy couldn’t lose its dignity.

“Old man, why do you care so much about dignity? It doesn’t matter where we eat,” Leng Qingtian said.

“This isn’t because of my own dignity. This is the dignity of the academy,” Elder Qiu emphasized.

“Grandpa, Elder Qiu, stop arguing. I’ll pay,” Leng Ruoxue said impatiently. These two old men had been bickering all along the way.

“You have money?” Elder Qiu asked in surprise.

“Where did you get the money?” Leng Qingtian asked. He knew that his granddaughter had a lot of good things, but she didn’t seem to have much money.

“I sold some spirit crystals before we set off,” Leng Ruoxue explained. Before they started this journey, she had specially asked Feng Da to sell a portion of the spirit crystals they had obtained in the Illusionary Forest for emergencies.

“Did you sell that earth python?” Leng Qingtian asked anxiously.That couldn’t be sold because it couldn’t even be bought with money.

“No.”

“That’s good.”

“Ruoxue, are you sure we can eat here for a month without any problems?” Elder Qiu asked uncertainly. They would have to stay in Lunar Capital for at least a month if they entered the top three.

“Elder Qiu, a month is nothing. We can even stay for a year,” Feng Da interrupted after arranging the rooms.

“Then I can rest assured,” Elder Qiu said.?I didn’t expect Ruoxue to be a wealthy lady.

“Don’t worry. Let’s hurry to our rooms to freshen up and then try the dishes of this Elegance Lagoon Pavilion later,” Leng Ruoxue suggested.

“Okay.” Everyone was very interested in this idea.

After going to her room, Leng Ruoxue directly entered the Heaven and Earth Bracelet, took a beautiful hot spring bath, and played with the little fellows before leaving.

“Ruoxue, you came out just in time. I was just about to call you for dinner!” Elder Qiu said eagerly when she saw Leng Ruoxue come out of her room.

“Then let’s go!”

“Elder Qiu, do you want to eat?” the innkeeper asked when he saw Elder Qiu and the others coming down the stairs.

“Arrange three private rooms for us,” Elder Qiu said generously. Having money emboldened him.

“Yes, please wait a moment.” The innkeeper quickly went to arrange it.

Leng Ruoxue and the others entered the private rooms. They had just ordered and were about to eat when the door suddenly opened, and a man and a woman walked in.

“Who allowed you to come in?” Leng Ruoxue questioned coldly. She hated being disturbed while eating. Moreover, they pushed the door open and entered without even knocking.

“Xue’er, he is Huo Qing,” Leng Ruohan said softly. They presumably came for him.

“I’m sorry to bother you,” Huo Qing said politely.

“Why did you come in if you knew you were interrupting?” Leng Ruoxue said without giving him any face. She didn’t care who he was. It was wrong to disturb her eating.

Huo Qing smiled bitterly. No one had ever been so rude to him in his life!

“How can you be so ungrateful? Big Brother Qing came to see an old friend out of goodwill. How can you have this attitude?” Huo Qing didn’t say anything. Instead, it was the beautiful girl beside him who rebuked her with discontent, with jealousy in her eyes flashing for a moment.

“What a joke. Did I invite him?” Leng Ruoxue sneered. She raised her eyes slightly and examined the man and woman in front of her. Huo Qing had a handsome appearance, a masculine build, and was an intermediate Spiritual Sovereign. Although his appearance wasn’t as good as her elder brother’s and the others’, he was the type of man that women liked the most.

As for this woman, she had an incomparably pure face and looked very innocent. But Leng Ruoxue knew that this woman was a classic example of a two-faced person. Her appearance could make all men want to want to protect and cherish her, and she was usually the most difficult kind of woman to deal with. Moreover, this woman was the most beautiful woman she had seen to date.
