Just like the pair from the Vermilion Bird Sect, Zhao Yunxiao’s group left shortly after they were done with their meal as well.


    Since they still had time to spare, Zhao Yunxiao and Gu Qiansi brought Lu Zhiying around to explore Moonrise City.

    For that reason, many factions had decided to set up shop here with an agenda in mind.


    Not only would this earn them access to the most updated information, but it would also provide them with a permanent base at which they could stay, should they be visiting the Black Tortoise Sect.

    As the unofficial ruler of Moonrise City, how could they not have a point of physical presence here?


    And since they did, who would dare to build something that looked grander than the residence of the Black Tortoise Sect?


    If anyone truly dared to do something like that, it would be akin to challenging the prestige of the Black Tortoise Sect on its home turf!


    “Really? Let’s go take a look!” Lu Zhiying suggested excitedly.


    “Haha, there’s no hurry. After all, we will be going to stay there tonight anyway,” Zhao Yunxiao laughed. “Let’s finish exploring the city before we go.”


    “Yay, okay!” Lu Zhiying cheered.


    Since they had to wait till tomorrow for Redaxe Hall to draft the new contract, it only made sense that they stayed in the city tonight.


    And since the Black Tortoise Sect had a private residence here, they had no reason not to take advantage of that fact.


    By doing this, not only would they not have to pay a single coin for their stay, but the quality of their stay would also be far higher than any other inns in the city!

    Thankfully, there were no other outer disciples present at the moment. This gave them free rein to select any room they wanted in the third tower.


    Without saying, they naturally chose to stay in the rooms on the top storey.


    “Wow! This is amazing!” Lu Zhiying exclaimed as she made a spin around the room in excitement. “The view is great too!”


    “Isn’t it?” Gu Qiansi said with a smile.


    While the third tower might not seem as good, that was only relative to the other two towers.


    In actual fact, the third tower also provided an amazing experience for people staying there.


    Standing at ten storeys high, it still provided an amazing view of the city. Each room was huge, probably more aptly described as a suite than a room.


    After all, the rooms were even more luxurious and elaborately decorated than their residence back on Purple Plum Mountain.


    If not because the world origin energy was far denser on Purple Plum Mountain, perhaps all outer disciples would prefer to stay here instead!


    “I told you it isn’t as bad as it sounds,” Zhao Yunxiao said with a shrug. “In any case, have a good rest tonight. We have a long day ahead of us tomorrow.”

    “He sure is,” Gu Qiansi narrowed her eyes further. “How suspicious.”


    When Zhao Yunxiao first told them that he had taken on this mission, she had already found it strange since the rewards were not commensurate with the time needed.


    Yes, it might be an easy mission that seemed to fit the bill as Lu Zhiying’s first mission.


    However, the Zhao Yunxiao she knew was not the type of person who would even consider significantly easier missions unless the rewards were well worth it.


    After all, he was not known as one of the most hardworking outer disciples for no reason.


    Rather than doing something easy for small rewards, Zhao Yunxiao would usually go for missions that provided the best rewards, as long as it was within his means to complete them in a safe manner.


    Even if it was because he had Lu Zhiying’s safety in mind, he could have easily chosen something slightly more difficult than this. At most, they could simply tell Lu Zhiying to observe from the back.


    In comparison, this mission was unnecessarily safe, considering that it could even be done by those at the Foundation Building realm.


    And judging from his suspicious words just now, Gu Qiansi was now even more convinced that there was more to this mission than what Zhao Yunxiao was letting them in on.


    Unfortunately, Gu Qiansi could not think of anything, no matter how she thought about it.


    </a> Just what was Zhao Yunxiao intending to accomplish by coming on this simple mission?
