It was reasonable to say that Raozhou had all the shadows of industrialisation, and the technological elements of Changluo City would be a little stronger. In fact Mo Wuji felt more of a heavy culture in Changluo City, some of the skyscrapers always revealed a historical aura that Mo Wuji could not see through.
Those shop pavilions, even more so, had an element in them that Mo Wuji could not fathom. Without exception, every single shop that stood on the main street was beautiful and extremely luxurious from the outside.
Mo Wuji was clear that he had to find a place to stay as soon as possible, the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly was being held in Changluo, if he was late in his search, he might only be able to sleep on the streets.
Mo Wuji’s premonition was not wrong, he searched for more than a dozen restaurants and inns one after the other, and did not find a single one that had a place to stay.
Just as Mo Wuji was about to retreat and look for a restaurant that was a class below, he saw the words ‘Tian Luo Restaurant’.
The Tian Luo Restaurant location wasn’t the busiest place, but it wasn’t remote either. Moreover, from the looks of it, Tian Luo Restaurant’s grade was much better than the dozen or so restaurants he had searched for before.
Mo Wuji guessed that this kind of restaurant definitely did not have accommodation, but he walked in with a just-in-case mentality. A woman hurriedly came out of the restaurant with her head lowered, brushing shoulders with Mo Wuji at the entrance of the restaurant. Even though they were just brushing shoulders, Mo Wuji could still guess from her perfect figure that this was an extremely beautiful woman.
The luxurious ground floor lobby made Mo Wuji think that he had arrived at a six star hotel on Earth, as a pretty looking young girl saw Mo Wuji enter and immediately greeted him, bowing before asking, “May I ask if you are looking for lodging or looking for someone?”
“I want to stay, are there any rooms left?” Mo Wuji hurriedly asked.
The young girl said with a smile on her face, “There are no more ordinary rooms or VIP rooms, we still have a superior room here that was just returned by someone else. If you want to stay, you have to pay the full two months’ accommodation fee ……”
Mo Wuji suddenly thought that when he came in just now, there was a woman who was hurrying out and he wondered if it was the room that the woman had retired. If it was, then he was really lucky.
“How much for two months?” Mo Wuji asked almost immediately after the young girl said that she would pay the full two months’ accommodation fee.
The young girl was still smiling and said without any panic, “Because it’s during the Leaping Immortal Sect Conference, our room rates are increased tenfold. The upper class room is ten thousand gold coins per month, twenty thousand gold coins for two months.”
Mo Wuji sucked in a mouthful of cold air, this price was not high, it was ridiculously high.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he had made a fortune with penicillin, he wouldn’t be able to afford to even take a look at that room, not to mention living here, I’m afraid.
“This is 20,000 gold tickets, I’ll stay for two months.” Even though the exorbitant price made Mo Wuji’s teeth ache, he still didn’t hesitate to take out two golden tickets worth 10,000 gold coins.
He was not qualified to participate in the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly, but the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly might be where his chance lay. He knew that those Immortal Sects were going to recruit some handyman disciples in addition to talented disciples. In case he tested out to have a spiritual root, he might even be able to enter an Immortal Sect and become an outer disciple.
If he could become an odd-job disciple of a large sect, it would definitely be extremely helpful to his cultivation. It was like those students who were going to take the Peking University exams were generally renting a house near the Peking University to revise. If he wanted to enter the Immortal Sect, naturally, the closer to the Immortal Sect, the better.
He had to rest well during this period to ensure his best condition. To earn money, there were ways for him to do so, but there weren’t many opportunities to find one like this. In case he left this place, went out to look around and couldn’t find a place to stay, and then came back here without a place to stay that would be a big loss.
There was one more thing, this restaurant looked like the high class kind. Or he could still come into contact with some more Immortal Masters here, which would be good for him.
The pretty young girl also didn’t expect Mo Wuji to really take out 20,000 gold coins, knowing that apart from those immortal masters, only princes or people from wealthy families could afford to live here. She could tell that Mo Wuji was wearing very ordinary clothes, unlike someone who could afford to live here. She kept her smile on, simply out of courtesy.
“Why, is there anything else wrong?” Mo Wuji saw that the young girl was a little frozen, so he hurriedly added another question. The room was in such short supply, so naturally, the sooner one could stay in it, the better.
“Oh no, this lord you please follow me to check in.” The young girl quickly reacted and respectfully led Mo Wuji to check in.
In just a few minutes, Mo Wuji got his room key and check-in identity card, his room was on the third floor, number zero one eighty two.
“Are there any more rooms?” Mo Wuji just got his key, followed by an anxious voice asking.
The one who spoke was a young woman with thick eyebrows and big eyes, looking very English. It was a pity that she was a woman, and this heroism made her a little less soft. Beside this young woman, there was also a young man carrying a long sword.
“I’m very sorry, the last room just now has already been booked by this friend.” The young woman who received Mo Wuji earlier replied politely.
When that young woman heard this, she immediately looked at Mo Wuji, “Transfer your room rate to me, I’ll give you double the price.”
“I happen to need to rest, so I can’t give you the room, sorry.” Mo Wuji naturally couldn’t give up on his plan just for a little gold coin.
“Triple the price.” The thick-browed woman frowned a little, and after sizing up Mo Wuji, she immediately doubled the price again. After the price was offered, the thick-browed woman seemed to be afraid that Mo Wuji wouldn’t give in, and followed up with, “Kid, take what you can get, don’t be too greedy and get yourself into trouble.”
Obviously she saw that Mo Wuji was dressed in average clothes, all she had to do was to offer more money plus a threatening sentence, surely she would be able to make Mo Wuji hand over the room.
“This sister, may I ask how much the best room on your side costs per night?” Mo Wuji was most displeased with this kind of guy who used money to bash people, of course if it was just money bashing and he didn’t have to move out then it was fine, he would reluctantly accept it. This woman not only smashed with money, but also with threats. He, Mo Wuji, was just not afraid of threats.
The young girl at the reception of that restaurant heard Mo Wuji call her sister, her pretty face reddened and still softly replied, “The best Immortal Master room, 100,000 gold coins per night ……”
“Forget it, open the best Immortal Master room for me, I’ll let them have this room for free forget it.” Mo Wuji waved his hand and said with a big grin.
The young girl said to Mo Wuji with an apologetic face, “We don’t have any more of the Immortal Master’s upper rooms, I’m really very sorry.”
“Oh, since it’s not available, I won’t pretend anymore.”
Even though the young girl from the restaurant didn’t know what Mo Wuji meant by pretending to be a pussy, she also knew that Mo Wuji was upset with the thick browed woman.
“A mere mortal, how dare he be so arrogant, we must teach him a lesson today.” Seeing Mo Wuji go far away, the thick-browed woman finally realised that Mo Wuji must have been ridiculing her just now.
The youth following the thick-browed woman said naively, “Senior sister, since there is no room to stay here, let’s just find another place to stay. Besides, we are sneaking out, in case we make a commotion, our family will know about it ……”
Seemingly reminded by the naive youth’s last sentence, the thick-browed woman said hatefully, “Kid, don’t fall into my hands in the future, otherwise I’ll let you know how powerful the Heavenly Tone Palace is, go.”
After the two of them walked out of the restaurant, the young girl who had received Mo Wuji seemed to have remembered something, and her face showed afterthought. She subconsciously looked at the direction of Mo Wuji’s room, and in her heart, she was silently mourning for Mo Wuji.
