Legend of the Heavenly Swordsman
Ch.62 - Girl Bothers

The building has three floors. Each floor has different facilities. The first floor is a place to eat for the inn, this place is usually always crowded with locals.

The second and third floors also have a considerable difference, the visitors have to pay one to two pieces of silver for special service on the third floor. It was quite expensive for an inn in this small town.

Xiao Jung, Fu Chen and Chu Ying came to the reception. "We'll book three rooms on the third floor, also please give us the changing clothes of this inn. I'll pay for everything." Xiao Jung placed a single piece of gold on the table and instantly made the receptionist's eyes wide open.

"Sure sir," the receptionist replied quickly.

"Is there also a hot spring in this room? Ah, please take care of this girl too, help her take a shower and change her clothes." Xiao Jung felt his body start to itch from a few days of not bathing.

"Good, Sir. We'll let you know when everything's ready."

Fu Chen had intended to take Chu Ying down from her back but the girl did not release her hand that was coiled around Fu Chen's neck.

"What's up, Ying'er?" moaning Fu Chen realized this girl was unwilling to go down.

"Sister, I don't want to sleep alone." Chu Ying rubbed his face on Fu Chen's back.

Fu Chen smiled wryly, he looked at a servant who was still quite young there for a while, before returning a glance towards Chu Ying. "What if this servant who accompanied Ying'er is sleeping?"

Chu Ying glanced at the servant in intent, the servant smiled gently as Chu Ying looked at him. "I don't want to, Ying'er just wants big brother's company." Chu Ying shook his head then tightened his embrace around Fu Chen's neck.

Fu Chen choked on his own breath hearing that remark. His neck felt a little choked. "Eh. Ying'er, it's not good if men and women sleep together. After all Ying'er-kan is already a big girl, isn't it a shame to be accompanied?"

Chu Ying did not reply, he further tightened his hands, making Fu Chen a little trouble breathing. Fu Chen glanced at Xiao Jung, but his senior was just staring at him strangely.

After quite a long time Fu Chen explained to Chu Ying, the girl finally complied with him by force. Fu Chen was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief afterwards. Inwardly he promised, it would not be sweet in front of a little girl like this even if it was difficult.

Fu Chen then handed over his dirty robe, as did Xiao Jung.

Fu Chen took the time to train after cleaning himself up. After about an hour of trying to gather qi, Fu Chen was a little surprised because the qi in this City felt thinner than the places he had visited. Perhaps the reason is because this place is often visited by many people, according to Fu Chen.

In the evening, Xiao Jung invited them to dinner. Xiao Jung did not want to eat at the inn, he chose a restaurant that looked quite luxurious. It could even be said that the restaurant was one of the largest in Tiemao City. The distance was not far enough from the inn, they were just walking towards it.

A servant greeted them as the three entered. The servant behaved very carefully when he saw the sword tucked in Xiao Jung's waist.

"Our tug to the second floor," Xiao Jung asked.

The restaurant has two floors. The waiter explained, in order to order a table on the second floor, they had to pay for one piece of bronze. Xiao Jung asked Fu Chen to pay for it, he himself did not keep such pieces in his pocket.

Fu Chen chose a table that was close to the wide window on the second floor. They can enjoy the incoming wind while looking at the view of the city.

A waiter immediately approached their table and gave a menu list at the restaurant.

"Me, me! I'll choose it!" Chu Ying directly pulled the menu list book and opened it.

Fu Chen scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, this girl's mannerisms started to wander by themselves. Chu Ying was seen thinking hard while turning the thin book sheet back. All the menus there look delicious in his eyes.

He then smiled broadly after finding what he wanted to order. "I want this. this. this…"

The servant quickly recorded Chu Ying's order. Fu Chen and Xiao Jung looked at each other to see quite a lot of food that the girl had pointed at.

"Ying'er, just eat what can get into your stomach. Is Ying'er sure she can finish all that food?" Fu Chen felt the need to stop the girl.

Chu Ying looked unwilling, it had been quite a while since he had not eaten such a delicious meal like this. He then looked at Xiao Jung with his mainstay, realizing that persuading Fu Chen was no longer easy after the events at the previous inn.

Xiao Jung raised the tip of his eyebrow, he simply withered with that look. Xiao Jung nodded his head then glanced at Fu Chen and asked to help him finish the meal later.

Fu Chen swallowed his saliva and smiled bitterly. With his current strength, he was actually able to survive despite months of not eating. Most warriors also abandon their eating habits, just to not want to waste time.

Xiao Jung and Fu Chen looked at her with serious faces, then nodded simultaneously. They took and ate every meal that Chu Ying did not spend. They are like they are racing.

At the end of that dinner, Chu Ying was sleepy and asleep on Fu Chen's lap. Xiao Jung then discussed their plans in the future.

"Senior, are we going to stay in the Capital to attend the auction?"

"Of course, that was my goal from the very beginning of taking on this mission." Xiao Jung smiled faintly.

"What about this girl? There's no way we're gonna take him along, is there?"

"I'll get my family's branch office to drive him home. You don't have to worry."

"Alright, at least he can go home safer." Fu Chen stroked Chu Ying's head, the girl was already soundly asleep.

Xiao Jung stretched his muscles and took something from behind his shirt. "For you." He placed a small wooden box the size of a fist on the table.

Fu Chen turned his head towards the wooden box, his hands were still busy wiping Chu Ying's head. "This is for me?" fu Chen asked in astonishment.

"Yes. It was a Jindan pill, I got it when one of the branch offices came to see me at the inn earlier. That pill can at least help you reach the next stage."

Fu Chen watched the little Box once again. He sensed the existence of quite condensed qi energy within it. "But why did senior give it to me? Wouldn't it be better if seniors were to consume it?"

"Take it as a payoff for your mission this time. With my current level of strength, the pill only affects about 10. It'll be more useful if you consume it." Xiao Jung thrust the wooden box closer to Fu Chen.

"Senior doesn't have to worry about that. After all I will get contribution points from the sect, it should be enough," Fu Chen replied smiling awkwardly, feeling uncomfortable if receiving something for free.

Xiao Jung let out a heavy sigh, it was clear that this junior of his did not know anything yet. "Let me explain to you. A mission like this does not have a high enough pay. You must remember! Our mission was initially to seek information.

But what did we do a few days ago? The contribution points you earn will not be worth your practice time wasted on this mission."

Fu Chen looked back at Xiao Jung. It was true, if only he had practiced for these several months within the sect, perhaps his practice would have been of little meaningful development.

"No need to dizzy. It's a gift from me." Xiao Jung then got up and approached Fu Chen. "Give the girl to me, I'll take her to the inn."

Fu Chen glanced towards Xiao Jung with a face full of question marks. "Why not just go home together?"

Xiao Jung smiled wryly, he was embarrassed if he had to tell the real reason. "I forgot to bring my money here, I'll take it. So, wait here huh," Xiao Jung said with a meaningful smile.

"Eh?" Fu Chen. Was he just made a guarantee if his senior didn't come back?

Xiao jung paid no heed to Fu Chen's expression, he picked up Chu Ying and rushed out of the restaurant. A short while later, a servant approached Fu Chen with the menu note that Chu Ying ordered.

"All five pieces of silver, sir," the servant's voice was like a bolt of lightning in Fu Chen's ear.

How can these foods be so expensive? Even the rental price is much cheaper. Fu Chen's heart seemed to want to cry, his money was currently only 10 pieces of silver left. And all left in the inn.

Fu Chen's brain thought hard to find the right reason to buy time. "Sorry, but I still want to enjoy this place. I will pay for it later," Fu Chen said casually as if there was no burden on his shoulders.

The servant smiled gently, then told the other servant to prepare tea for this young master he served. "Sorry to interrupt your time, sir."

Fu Chen folded his legs and nodded with his eyes closed. He looked quite haughty and charming in the eyes of the maid. However, the waiter did not know that Fu Chen's heart wanted to cry because he was providing an even more expensive drink.

Fu Chen sighed harshly after the servant left. It was as if he had just escaped death.

A short while later, three figures in fairly luxurious-looking clothes entered the second floor. One of them looked like a bodyguard.

Fu Chen widened his eyes when he saw a familiar figure entering that floor. His mouth was open, but no sound came out.
