Chapter 115 Twin Towers
The five, who had just woken up and were still reeling from the huge surprise of their master breaking through to the second level of the Sky-Breaking Realm, were sent to the Night Pool Palace Trial Tower.
Manager Liu said to Xi'er with envy, "The Palace Master is so kind to you, Miss!"
Normally, it costs us 30,000 contribution points to enter this Trial Tower for a month of training, but now you're getting five spots for free.
The five, who were initially unhappy and reluctant to leave their master, were now grateful and obediently ran into the Trial Tower.
As for Xi'er, she's busy checking her work right now.
Xunri took her for a walk through Luming Street, and her eyes lit up as she looked at every shop on both sides.
She woke up to find herself the owner of all the shops on the street, and she figured she'd be laughing in her sleep every day for the foreseeable future.
Seeing the little girl's bright, money-grubbing smile, Sang Yuebai had a sudden inspiration and came up with a new way to help her.
"Oh, by the way, before, my city lord's mansion held a banquet to celebrate your driving away of the Insect Emperor, and invited the heads of the major families of Zhaixing City."
At the banquet, to thank the Palace Master and Xi'er for their contributions in that great battle, they specially presented ten million top-grade spirit stones, plus the twin towers on the east side of the central square.
The twin towers were built in exactly the same style and layout, with exquisite architecture. Most importantly, there was a natural hot spring between the two towers.
Everyone agreed to give the two small buildings to Xi'er and the Palace Master respectively.
Although the Palace Master spends most of his time at Night Pool Palace, it's very convenient for him to occasionally visit Star Picking City or entertain guests.
As Sang Yuebai spoke these words, she kept winking at Ye Tanji and even transmitted her thoughts to him:
"These two twin towers are only five zhang apart. Standing on the veranda, you can clearly see everything on the opposite tower."
Ye Tanji quickly understood that his old friend was creating an opportunity for him to exchange glances with Xi'er from afar.
It seems that the pair of cloud-piercing boots were a worthwhile gift. If they weren't men's boots, he would have given them to Xi'er immediately instead of Old Sang.
Xi'er was thrilled to hear this, but a little embarrassed, she said, "Old Sang, isn't this inappropriate? Everyone contributed to that battle."
It's only right that they give the Palace Master gifts, after all, the Palace Master single-handedly held off the Insect Queen and her insect army, buying me enough time.
Otherwise, how would I have had the opportunity to repair the spatial barrier?
I didn't kill a single bug from beginning to end, so they didn't deserve to treat me like that.
"Xi'er, don't be modest. If it weren't for you repairing the spatial barrier, there would probably be countless more Insect Kings and Insect armies in our entire Yunyuan Mirror by now."
"Here, these are the keys to the Twin Towers. Go and take a look around as soon as possible. If anything inside doesn't suit your taste, we'll try our best to accommodate your needs," Sang Yuebai said.
"Take it, it's what you deserve," Ye Tanji said.
Hearing him say that, Xi'er finally accepted the key with a clear conscience, then waved it at him: "Palace Master, would you like to go take a look together?"
"Hmm." Ye Tanji nodded lightly.
Upon arriving near the Twin Towers, Bo Yiyan immediately spotted the hot spring pool connecting the two buildings.
These two buildings appear to be separated by their own courtyards and walls, but the hot spring pool connects them together.
In order to isolate the hot spring pool from the outside world, walls were built on both sides.
The two ends of the wall are connected to the walls of the twin towers, making it look like two buildings built by one family.
Bo Yiyan's face darkened. He had already seen through Sang Yuebai's sinister intentions. This was clearly aimed at his little cabbage.
Sure enough, when he turned his head, he saw Ye Tanji's seemingly indifferent but actually secretly delighted expression.
But his silly daughter pointed excitedly at the hot spring pool and said, "Your Highness, we can use this hot spring pool on alternate days, even if it's a day or two. You won't mind if I've used it before, will you?"
"Of course not. The hot spring pool is filled with living water that springs up from underground, just like river water."
"Why would residents living along the same river complain about their neighbors using the river water to wash and rinse?" Ye Tanji said.
Xi'er felt that the Palace Master of Yetan Palace was very reasonable and approachable, and did not put on airs of a great person at all.
Yes, that's good. Such character is worth getting to know better.
"So, Xi'er, Brother Yetan, may I use your hot spring pool from now on?" Sang Yuebai asked.
"Of course!" the two said in unison.
After they finished speaking, their eyes met, and Xi'er, her eyes sparkling, smiled and said:
"I thought the Palace Master would blame me for taking matters into my own hands and overstepping my bounds, but I didn't expect you to think the same way I do. Wouldn't you say we're kindred spirits?"
"Hmm, I guess so," Ye Tanji said.
Sang Yuebai: Feeling pretty good inside, huh?
Bo Yiyan: That old scoundrel is so blatant, does he think his father is dead?
Although he was full of resentment, he felt a little guilty when he met Ye Tanji's deep eyes.
What if you can't win?
Bo Yiyan made a decision that he would never leave Xi'er's side again. If she wanted to soak in the hot spring, he would have Qian Si create a thick barrier with vines to prevent the lecherous man from getting close!
