XIAO SHUXIANG'S

38 - Lotus Leaf Town [Revised]

Lotus Leaf Town was one of the great cities that existed in the Windfall Country, the Rising Sun Empire, the Eastern Continent.

The Eastern Continent was actually divided into three regions of the Empire, namely the Rising Sun Empire, the Middle Sun Empire and the Embedded Sun Empire.

Within the territory of the Empire of the Rising Sun, there were 7 countries, one of which was the Land of the Wind Sect.

Lotus Leaf City itself has the same shape as its name, in the middle of this city there is a large lake, where the location of the Lotus Flower Sect is in the middle of the lake.

The carriage carrying Gu Ta Sian and the others stopped in front of an inn. He asked his two juniors to come in and reserve a room for them, including booking a room for Yang Shu and his four students.

"I'll be away for a while with these merchants. Senior, I leave my two juniors to you," Gu Ta Sian told Yang Shu.

"Just calm down, I'll definitely take care of them. You be careful,"

Gu Ta Sian nodded, he then bid farewell to Zong Ming and Ying Liu, then began to ask the carriage coachman to leave immediately.

Zong Ming then invited his new friends to enter the inn. Jing Mi and Xiao Lu were so enthusiastic when they saw the atmosphere inside this inn called, 'Triple Petal Inn.

The Three Petals Inn building has three floors, where the first floor is a place to eat, while the other two floors are lodging.

Zong Ming, Ying Liu, along with Yang Shu met one of the innkeeper who was standing not far from the door.

Zong Ming and Ying Liu ordered three rooms on the 2nd floor for three gold coins. The innkeeper then asked a servant to take them to their respective rooms.

The first room Zong Ming had reserved was for Gu Ta Sian and Yang Shu. The second room was occupied by Ying Liu and Xiao Lu, while the other rooms were occupied by him, Qi Xuan, Jing Mi and Xiao Shuxiang.

After knowing the location of each room, Yang Shu, Zong Ming and the others went back down to the first floor to order food.

They could actually have asked the waiter to deliver the food to their respective rooms, but they preferred to eat downstairs while waiting for Gu Ta Sian to arrive.

Along with the food coming, Gu Ta Sian was seen walking in while browsing through every visitor and looking for the whereabouts of Yang Shu as well as his two juniors.

Zong Ming waved his hand with a smile towards Gu Ta Sian. His actions made Gu Ta Sian aware of their existence. Gu Ta Sia walked over to Zong Ming, Yang Shu and the others.

"Senior, I thought you'd be a long time ago." said Zong Ming as Gu Ta Sian began to sit down and join them.

"I only reported about the whereabouts of the corpses of the Brothers Robbers as well as ushering in the invulnerable merchants Peaches Swallow, it didn't take long."

While eating together, the three customers who had just entered attracted the attention of Jing Mi, Xiao Lu and Qi Xuan. This is because the clothes of the person are very shiny with purple color, impressed striking.

These three people were disciples of the Lightning Flower Sect, one of the middle sects of the Neutral Flow.

They ordered a room on the third floor. Indeed, most cultivators who came to the Three Petals Inn always reserved a room on the top floor. This was because they did not want to get too mingled with ordinary people.

Impressed like avoiding unwanted things or they just want a private room. Perhaps that was why, there were no other cultivators eating downstairs except Gu Ta Sian, Yang Shu and the children they brought.

After eating, Yang Shu and Gu Ta Sian went back up to their rooms. While Ying Liu and Zong Ming invited their new friends to take a walk in the city.

Xiao Shuxiang chose not to come, he just wanted to be in the room alone. Jing Mi and Zong Ming tried to persuade her, but Xiao Shuxiang remained unwilling.

"I still have to recover my condition, the Qi here is good enough for recovery" Xiao Shuxiang said.

"Brother Xiao, we're not just going for a walk, but we're going to practice with these two new brothers...!" Jing Mi was so enthusiastic, as she patted the shoulders of Zong Ming and Ying Liu.

Xiao Shuxiang, "I actually want to come along, but there's something I have to do."

"Brother, come. This is the first time we've met the city. I want to say hello to the buildings and trees in this place. You should come too... Inj would be a lot of fun," Jing Mi continued to urge Xiao Shuxiang to come with her.

The boy was even aided by Qi Xuan and Zong Ming until finally Xiao Shuxiang sighed softly.

"So.. okay. Good luck Brother Xiao...!"

Zong Ming then took his friends for a walk in the city, leaving Xiao Shuxiang at the inn.

Qi Xuan, "What did Brother Xiao say..?"

Jing Mi, "I'm also curious..."

Both Jing Mi, Qi Xuan and Xiao Lu looked curious. However Zong Ming was unwilling to say anything because Xiao Shuxiang asked him not to tell these three children.

"It's best not to disturb Brother Xiao until tonight. Let's just go there!" Take Zong Ming with a smile.

Although disappointed that Zong Ming was completely unwilling to tell anything, yet Jing Mi, Qi Xuan and Xiao Lu instantly forgot their sense of disappointment when they saw the beauty of Lotus Leaf Town.

While being engrossed in looking through one of the wares, Zong Ming's shoulder was patted gently by Ying Liu.

"What's wrong?" Zong Ming raised next to his brows as he looked at Ying Liu.

In a very slow voice, Ying Liu asked about the matter that Xiao Shuxiang whispered to Zong Ming.

"What did that kid talk to you?"

"You're also curious...?" Zong Ming had not expected this normally unconcerned girl to now look at him curiously.

"alright. I'll tell you because you definitely understand, but don't tell the three of them." Zong Ming half-whispered, making Ying Liu nod.

Zong Ming first watched over Qi Xuan, Jing Mi and Xiao Lu who were quite far ahead of them. All three are still enjoying admiring the buildings around him.

"Brother Xiao intended to recover his condition as well as make a change of Dantian. He didn't want to be bothered with the three of them..."

Ying Liu did not look surprised upon hearing Zong Ming's explanation. "When I helped treat the boy, I learned that the dantian he had was a Defective Dantian. But, replacing the Dantian isn't it too risky...?"

Zong Ming, "Brother Xiao just said that. I think he'll ask his grandfather and senior for help."

Ying Liu nodded when he heard the answer from this fellow-colleague. "Ah... Is correct. There's no way that little kid would be reckless doing high-risk things alone."

Actually, the reason why Zong Ming did not tell what Xiao Shuxiang whispered to Jing Mi, Qi Xuan and Xiao Lu was because according to what Xiao Shuxiang had said, it was, these three children would only annoy him.

Therefore, as much as possible Zong Ming would prevent Qi Xuan, Jing Mi and Xiao Lu from returning to the inn. At least until Xiao Shuxiang finished changing his dantian.

"I can't hold them off by myself, so I need your help too." Said Zong Ming to Ying Liu.

"Hm, I'm gonna help."

Ying Liu and Zong Ming then rejoined Qi Xuan, Xiao Lu and Jing Mi. The two of them then invited the three of them to visit other places.
