Ye Xi withdrew her gaze from the Sky-Winged Horse, a hint of a smile appearing on her delicate face as she strode forward.
"Let's return to Suotuo City."
"At this hour, we should head back to rest."
As Ye Xi spoke, her azure eyes looked up at the brilliant starry sky.
Watching the starry sky from the Star Dou Great Forest had a unique charm of its own.
Ling Yuan did not speak, but quickly kept pace with Ye Xi.
The two figures moved rapidly through the Star Dou Great Forest, and any Spirit Beasts they encountered along the way that prepared to ambush Ye Xi were casually dealt with by Ling Yuan.
Soon, Ye Xi and Ling Yuan left the boundaries of the Star Dou Great Forest and headed in the direction of Suotuo City.
Upon returning to Suotuo City, the entire street appeared somewhat quiet because it was still nighttime.
Walking along the somewhat quiet street, a faint, elusive smile always lingered on the corners of Ye Xi's mouth.
"Little Tang San should like the gift I left in the Star Dou Great Forest."
Ye Xi thought to herself, but her footsteps did not falter as she walked toward the hotel she had booked.
She was almost certain that the next Time Xiao Wu returned to the Star Dou Great Forest, as long as she had others with her, the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape would definitely make a move to test them.
As for how they would test them, Ye Xi could guess a few things; it would be nothing more than those few methods.
When the Time came, if Tang Hao couldn't help but intervene, what would greet him would likely be the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape in a state of rage.
Even if Tang Hao didn't intervene, there might be some unexpected surprises.
Either way, she, Ye Xi, would not suffer any losses.
Arriving at the entrance of the hotel, just as Ye Xi was about to enter, she saw a familiar figure walking out.
"Why are you here?"
Ning Rongrong, who had just walked out of the hotel with an unpleasant expression, saw Ye Xi before her, and her face darkened even more.
Ever since Ye Xi and Ning Rongrong first met at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and parted on bad terms, their relationship had never been good; every Time they met, it felt like they were at daggers drawn.
"Coming here, it must be for rest."
"What else could it be?"
Ye Xi rolled her eyes at Ning Rongrong and walked straight into the hotel.
"Hey, this hotel has already been booked out; it's no use for you to go in."
Ning Rongrong watched Ye Xi enter the hotel and immediately followed her inside.
As soon as Ye Xi entered the hotel, she saw Time greet her.
"Pavilion Master, you have returned."
Time bowed to Ye Xi and Ling Yuan, who was standing beside her. As for Ning Rongrong, who had walked in last, she was completely ignored by Time.
"Have the rooms been booked?"
Ye Xi gently raised her hand, signaling for Time to rise.
"Pavilion Master, the rooms have been booked."
"To avoid anyone disturbing your rest, I took the liberty of booking the entire hotel."
Time replied very respectfully.
"Didn't I only ask you to book the three best rooms?"
"Forget it, let this be the only Time."
"If the Young Miss of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also wishes to stay here, have the staff prepare a superior room for her."
As Ye Xi spoke, she walked toward the hotel stairs.
"Not necessary!"
"In such a large Suotuo City, can I not find a place to stay?"
Ning Rongrong watched Ye Xi's departing back, turned around without any hesitation, and walked out of the hotel.
Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Ye Xi paused slightly, glanced back at Ning Rongrong, and then slowly walked up the hotel stairs.
"The Shrek Seven Devils from the original story are about to be gathered together."
"I just wonder, without the Immortal Herbs, what heights you will be able to reach."
Ye Xi thought to herself, but her footsteps did not stop at all.
Arriving at the third floor of the hotel, Ye Xi chose a room at random and walked straight in.
Ling Yuan chose the room next to Ye Xi's.
Back in her room, after taking a comfortable hot bath, Ye Xi lay down on the soft and comfortable bed, her azure eyes gradually closing as she quickly drifted off to sleep.
The next day, early morning.
A ray of sunlight shone through the window and fell upon Ye Xi.
Ye Xi's eyes gradually opened. She sat up from the bed, checked the Time, then got off the bed to freshen up.
After freshening up, Ye Xi walked straight out of her room.
Just as she stepped out of the room, she saw the door to Ling Yuan's room open. Ling Yuan walked out and quietly followed behind Ye Xi.
"Young Miss, Time has prepared breakfast and is currently waiting downstairs."
Ling Yuan's voice sounded beside Ye Xi.
"Mm, let's go down then."
Ye Xi agreed, and she and Ling Yuan headed toward the first floor of the hotel.
There was a restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. When Ye Xi and Ling Yuan arrived, they saw various kinds of breakfast food laid out on the table.
"Pavilion Master."
Time bowed respectfully to the two as they approached.
"No need for formalities, sit down and eat together."
Ye Xi waved her hand indifferently, signaling for Time to rise, then sat down at the dining table and began to taste the breakfast in front of her.
"Time, after breakfast, go to the Family where Dragon Duke: Meng Shu and Snake Grandmother: Chao Tianxiang reside, and invite them to join our Frost Snow Pavilion."
"If they agree, I can grant the Dragon Duke the position of Hall Master, with the same treatment as the other three Hall Masters of my Frost Snow Pavilion."
"If they have any other conditions, you can come back and tell me. When I have Time, I will personally negotiate with the Dragon Duke and Snake Grandmother."
Ye Xi ate the breakfast in front of her unhurriedly, her movements appearing very elegant.
"Yes, Pavilion Master."
Time agreed, then quickly began to eat the breakfast in front of him.
Ling Yuan sat quietly beside Ye Xi, eating breakfast slowly, showing no intention of speaking.
The breakfast was soon finished.
After bowing to Ye Xi, Time headed toward the Family where the Dragon Duke and Snake Grandmother resided.
"Young Miss, where are we going next?"
Ling Yuan watched Time leave and asked Ye Xi.
"Return to the room to Cultivate."
"Wait for news from Time."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Xi turned around and walked straight toward her room.
Ling Yuan did not speak again but silently followed behind Ye Xi.
Back in the room, Ye Xi sat cross-legged on the bed and entered a state of meditative Cultivation.
Ye Xi's current spirit power was level forty-four, but she had already touched the threshold of level forty-five; she was only a step away from reaching level forty-five.
