Chapter 73 Arrival at Mingdu!
The Sun Moon Empire is located to the west of the original continent. Originally, it was an independent continent, but a collision between two continents led to a series of conflicts.
Even now, the Sun Moon Empire's relationship with the original three kingdoms is in a stalemate, and it frequently clashes with the nearest Star Luo Empire on the border, with conflicts of varying scales.
Huo Yuxi's biological father, Dai Hao, leads an army stationed on the border, ready to defend against the Sun Moon's army.
The capital of the Sun Moon Empire is called Sun Moon City, also known as Mingdu, and is the political and economic center of the entire Sun Moon Empire.
The city is extremely large; even the combined capitals of the Heavenly Soul Empire, the Fighting Spirit Empire, and the Star Luo Empire are smaller than Mingdu.
At night, Mingdu is brightly lit, and the entire city is a vast expanse of buildings, quite spectacular.
Moreover, unlike the buildings of the original three kingdoms, the buildings in Mingdu are generally five stories or more, and there are quite a few even over ten stories high.
Among them, besides the enormous imperial palace standing in the center, the most eye-catching is undoubtedly the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
At this moment, in a hotel a few hundred meters away from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy
, Yunze checked in at the counter and headed upstairs with his room key.
"It feels like I've returned to my past life," he thought.
The hotel's environment was excellent, clearly backed by an extremely wealthy owner who had made the entire interior opulent.
Since the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's annual enrollment wouldn't begin for two days, Yunze had to make do at the hotel for now and go to the nearby academy once enrollment started.
Yunze's room was on the ninth floor. Although soul tools were developing rapidly, civilian soul tools similar to elevators hadn't been developed yet, forcing Yunze to take the stairs to the ninth floor.
Yunze activated the soul-guiding array next to the door with his room card and pushed the door open.
He turned on the soul-guiding lamp, and instantly the entire room became bright, like daytime.
"It's a bit expensive, but worth the money." After surveying the room, Yunze nodded in satisfaction.
*Whoosh*
—a flash of light, and the tattoo on Yunze's back vanished, transforming into a young girl who landed beside him.
"After traveling for so many days, I can finally take a hot bath. Demon Spirit, do you want to go first or should I?" Yunze asked the Demon Spirit King with a smile. The latter tilted his head. "A bath?"
"Didn't you need to bathe in the Star Dou Great Forest?"
Yunze was taken aback.
The Demon Spirit King shook his head. "I'm different from ordinary soul beasts; I don't have fur to wash."
"Alright, you can stay here then. If you get hungry, just press the button next to the bed, and someone will bring you food." Yunze instructed the Demon Spirit King before heading straight into the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of running water could be heard.
Sitting on the soft bed, the Demon King blinked, staring at the bathroom.
After a moment, she tilted her head again.
"Are all human ones this small?"
Soon after, the bathroom door opened again, releasing a wave of warm steam. Yunze comfortably dried his hair with a towel, a white bathrobe draped over him.
Seeing the Demon King still in the same position, Yunze wasn't surprised. It hadn't said much on the journey anyway; he usually entertained himself with Tianmeng when bored.
Of course, he also noticed Ilex.
With the help of the Life Gold, the fragments of Ilex's consciousness were reassembling very quickly; he estimated it wouldn't be long before he fully awakened.
*Thump!
* Yunze collapsed onto the bed, yawning. It wasn't late anymore, so he casually turned off the soul-guiding lamp and pulled the blanket over himself.
After lying in bed for a while, Yunze suddenly realized something was wrong.
He turned his head slightly to look at the Demon King, whose eyes were still bright in the darkness. "You also want to sleep in the bed?"
The Demon King glanced at Yun Ze. "My lord ordered me to protect you closely." Yunze was immediately amused. "What do you consider 'close protection'?"
The Demon King thought for a moment, then lifted a corner of Yunze's blanket, her petite body sliding in like an eel.
Soon, Yunze felt himself touch a soft patch of skin.
Yunze, "..."
'Is this what close protection is?'
"Hmm."
Yunze's lips twitched violently. In his spiritual sea, Tianmeng's gloating laughter rang out, "Hehe, young master, you're really lucky with women!"
"Do you find it funny?" Yunze replied quietly.
Tianmeng felt a chill run down its spine, then heard Yunze continue, "When we get back to the far north, I'll sleep with Sister Bing'er every day. Will you still find that funny?"
Tianmeng, "..."
Its little face immediately fell, looking at Yunze with a resentful expression. "Young Master, ever since I, Tianmeng, chose to follow you, I haven't had a single other thought. I just hope you can become a god so I can live a long life with you."
"Yes, Bingbing, no, Ice Emperor, I absolutely have no thoughts about that!"
"Good to know." Yunze nodded with satisfaction. "But you don't need to be so pessimistic. There will be many places where I'll need your help in the future."
"Of course, Young Master! I, Tianmeng, am currently the only million-year-old soul beast on the continent. Taking me in is definitely the most correct choice you've ever made!" Tianmeng laughed loudly upon hearing this.
Yunze silently severed the mental connection with Tianmeng.
This thing really is something else; give it a little taste and it thinks it's all that great again.
Closing his eyes, Yunze didn't think too much and peacefully fell asleep.
It wasn't until late at night that he felt a slight difficulty breathing and groggily opened his eyes.
Then Yunze saw that the Demon Spirit King, who had been leaning against him, had somehow ended up hugging him.
Her sleeping posture was extremely strange; her head was resting on his chest, one leg was draped over him, and her waist was bent at a wide arc.
The Demon Spirit King's sleeping face was almost identical to her usual dazed expression.
Ah, this.
Yunze looked at this scene helplessly, lying on the bed at a loss.
"Sigh,"
after a long while, Yunze finally gave up and sighed softly, helping the Demon Spirit King to adjust her position so she could lean against him more comfortably.
Why didn't he move her?
Because the Demon Spirit King's hands seemed glued to him, clinging tightly to Yunze.
And so, the night passed.
The next day, after getting up, Yunze didn't stay in the hotel. Instead, he put on a coat and strolled around the area.
According to the division of the Mingdu area, the area around the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was a commercial street, the place with the most shops in the entire Mingdu.
You can find all kinds of delicious food and shops of all sizes here.
After surveying the surroundings, Yunze returned to the hotel.
However, he didn't go straight to his room.
Because a blonde girl was standing at the door.
