The disciples, their faces etched with fatigue, instantly perked up at these words.
The journey had been long and arduous, forcing them to brave the elements, and now everyone reeked of sweat.
They were all eager to check into an inn as soon as possible, take a hot bath, change into clean clothes, and then eat a hot meal!
Soon, the group arrived at Feiyun Inn.
The inn was exquisitely decorated, and its patrons were all clad in luxurious clothing. It was clearly a high-end establishment.
However, when Yue Lingfeng led the group to the counter, announced his name, and prepared to check in...
The stout Shopkeeper gave them a pained smile and bowed repeatedly.
"Ah, it's Dean Yue… I… I am so terribly sorry! The rooms you booked… they're gone!"
Yue Lingfeng's smile froze on his face. Frowning, he said in a heavy tone,
"Gone? Shopkeeper, what do you mean by that? I paid the deposit a long time ago!"
