The bustling crowd, in contrast to the silence of the Nameless Peak, was instantly hit by endless noise. The vendors setting up stalls shouted loudly. The monks stopped in front of the stalls, looked at them curiously, or bargained with the vendors. In addition to the monks, there were also a small number of civilians.

Here, monks and civilians seem to be integrated with each other and live in peace. The civilians of Lingtian Continent are very awed by the monks. Some will stop and salute them when they see them from afar, and some will take the initiative to give way to the monks to pass first.

When Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou arrived, they met an old civilian who insisted on bowing to them.

The two had originally planned to find a more remote town, but ended up ending up here.

Tianjiu City is two hundred miles away from Zixiao Sect and is also the largest city within a radius of two hundred miles. However, for cultivators, the two hundred miles can be reached in a short time.

The magnificent city walls carry a rich cultural heritage and are always filled with an atmosphere of laughter and joy. People there are indeed much happier than those in the demon battlefield.

This is also the reason why the common people of Lingtian Continent would bow when they see the monks, because these common people know that without these monks stopping the demons from invading Lingtian Continent, they would not have the beautiful and happy life they have now, so they want the monks to feel their respect.

Tianjiu City also has separate entrance and exit gates for civilians and cultivators, but there are fewer civilians than cultivators in Tianjiu City, so there are relatively fewer people at the city gates for civilians to enter and exit.

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou still failed to appreciate the taste of privilege and obediently queued up to enter the city.

As we entered the city, we were greeted by a bustle that was even more lively than outside.

The civilians of Tianjiu City were very enthusiastic towards the monks. The two of them randomly picked someone and immediately asked about the location of the largest restaurant in Tianjiu City.

A moment later, the two of them stood in front of the restaurant's entrance.

"Isn't this restaurant grand enough?" Gao Han asked Zhongli Tingzhou.

Zhongli Tingzhou nodded with satisfaction, "It's barely acceptable, and it's worthy of us."

"Tsk, Tianjiu Restaurant is the restaurant owned by the city lord of Tianjiu City, and it's also the highest-end restaurant in Tianjiu City. It's your honor to be able to enter this restaurant." A young monk who passed by the two of them happened to hear what they said. As a supporter of Tianjiu Restaurant, he immediately retorted.

Gao Han glanced at him and knew that they were not here to cause trouble, so he did not respond.

"How high-grade is it?" Zhongli Tingzhou stared at him with narrowed eyes.

The young monk said with an expression that would scare you to death, "Do you know how many spirit stones it costs to stay here for one night? Don't be scared, the worst room requires ten high-quality spirit stones, and the best one requires no less than a hundred. Do you know why it is so expensive? Because Tianjiu Restaurant is the only restaurant in Tianjiu City that has array formations in its rooms."

Zhongli Tingzhou immediately said to Gao Han, "I didn't expect that the formation was so cheap. We came to the right place this time. Let's go in and see if there are any other rooms like this." After that, he pulled him in. Didn't he see that the young monk behind him almost popped his eyes out when he heard him say it was a cheap deal.

The young monk didn't believe it and decided to follow them to see if these two people were really that rich. What if they were pretending and deliberately wanted to slap him in the face?

The best rooms in Tianjiu City are naturally not sold out so easily, because the price is really expensive, and few cultivators can afford it. Even if they are available, they cannot stay for too long, so the best and superior rooms are often vacant.

When the shopkeeper of Tianjiu City heard that they wanted the best room, which must have sound insulation and a spirit-gathering formation, he was extremely happy, because a room with the two formations combined was more expensive, twice as expensive as the one hundred high-quality spirit stones mentioned by the young cultivator, which would cost three hundred for one night.

The young monk who had witnessed them readily paying several days' worth of spirit stones from behind was too embarrassed to stay any longer and immediately left in disgrace.

"Dear guests, this is your room." The shopkeeper personally led them up.

The room was very big, with two beds inside and outside. The beds were also very big and could easily accommodate three or four adults. Zhongli Tingzhou was very satisfied after seeing it and shouted for a reward. The shopkeeper immediately smiled.

Gao Han glared at him before taking out a top-grade spirit stone and giving it to the shopkeeper, who thanked him profusely and went out.

"A room that costs three hundred high-quality spirit stones a night is worth it." Zhongli Tingzhou took a look around and was most satisfied with the bed inside. It was big enough for them to make love for a few rounds.

After saying that, he noticed that Gao Han didn't move, so he turned around and saw him fiddling in a corner of the room.

"What are you doing?" Zhongli Tingzhou approached.

"Set up the formation." Gao Han said as he drew a new formation and activated it with several top-grade spirit stones.

"Isn't there a formation in the room? The spiritual energy is indeed richer than outside." Zhongli Tingzhou was quite satisfied.

"It's better to be prepared." Gao Han was too lazy to explain to him. He couldn't listen anyway.

Zhongli Tingzhou did not ask any more questions. He sat by the bed and waited for him obediently, but his burning eyes never left him. It seemed that he was almost done. "My dear baby, come here when you are done. Your husband has been waiting for you for a long time."

Gao Han was sure that the formation had been activated and there were no problems, so he walked towards him. After standing in front of him, he began to take off his robe quickly and efficiently.

Zhongli Tingzhou's throat suddenly became extremely dry. He stared at his movements without blinking and said in a hoarse voice, "You always refused to let me do it before, so why are you so proactive now? This is not like you at all."

"What do you think dual cultivation is? Haven't you read the book on dual cultivation techniques?" Gao Han glanced at him. This guy was too excited.

“Dual cultivation is about two people being in perfect harmony with each other.” Zhongli Tingzhou looked at her as she took off her upper body clothes, leaving only a pair of underwear. Her two straight and long legs were faintly visible. He felt that he could no longer control himself. He didn't even dare to look up, for fear of getting a nosebleed.

Gao Han smiled, "Hehe, you will soon find out if it is that kind of thing."

Hearing this, Zhongli Tingzhou showed a suspicious expression. When he met his eyes that seemed to be gloating, he suddenly had a bad premonition.

…

Three days later, the owner of Tianjiu Restaurant was counting the bills at the counter when Monk Li, who was in charge of the restaurant's backyard, suddenly came over.

"Manager Wang, has the restaurant been doing well recently?"

Shopkeeper Wang immediately thought of the big client who had stayed in a superior room for three days. He even earned a high-quality spirit stone for it. Normally, even if a wealthy client gave a tip, it would only be a few medium-quality spirit stones. He nodded with a smile and said, "It's pretty good."

"No wonder." Monk Li sighed lightly, showing an expected expression.

"No wonder, what happened?" Shopkeeper Wang asked curiously.

"In the past few days, the restaurant's spiritual energy consumption has been twice as fast as usual. I was wondering if something went wrong." Now I finally know the reason.

"Two or three times?" Shopkeeper Wang was shocked. "How could it exceed by so much? Is there a mistake?"

"You are not mistaken, otherwise I would not come to ask you. It started three days ago." Monk Li explained.

Manager Wang suddenly remembered that it was three days ago when the two guests checked into the restaurant, so he told him about it.

Monk Li frowned. "According to what you said, the source should be those two people. Didn't they come out again after they went in?"

"No, I asked people to check from time to time during the past three days. The door of the room has never been opened. They are very likely practicing in there. Do you want me to ask someone to go and call them?" If they continue to spend like this, no amount of room fees can make up for the loss. Shopkeeper Wang regretted thinking that they were two gods of wealth.

Monk Li thought for a moment and shook his head. "Forget it. If they are practicing in there, we will probably upset them if we disturb them rashly. They are likely to have good backgrounds if they can book a first-class room for several days without blinking an eye. There is no need to make enemies over such a small matter."

"So you don't care now?"

"They only booked it for five days, right?" asked Monk Li.

Shopkeeper Wang nodded, "Five days."

Monk Li thought: "Five days of losses are not that big. If they still don't come out after five days, you can send someone to inquire about them, and it will be justified."

Shopkeeper Wang: "Okay, I'll wait for two more days."

Monk Li hummed and went back to the backyard.

What he didn't know was that the real consumption had just begun. After he returned, he found out that the spiritual energy in the restaurant would be consumed even more. Until some customers complained that the spiritual energy in the restaurant had become much thinner than usual and they could not absorb much spiritual energy.

When Manager Wang handled the matter, he found that the rooms occupied by these complaining guests were the ones closest to the superior rooms, so he had to re-arrange rooms for them.

After five days of agony, early in the morning of the sixth day, Shopkeeper Wang could not wait and went to knock on their door himself. He would rather not earn the spirit stones from these two people than let them stay any longer. However, after knocking for a long time, no one came out to book a room. Fearing to disturb other guests, Shopkeeper Wang did not dare to shout, so he had to call Monk Li.

"It's been the sixth day, and no one has come out after calling for a long time. Brother Li, do you think there is any way?"

The formations in the restaurant were all set up by a formation master. Manager Wang had low cultivation level and did not dare to touch them.

"I'll give it a try." Monk Li said and released his spiritual sense.

After a moment, he withdrew his consciousness with a look of amazement.

"No, they actually set up a formation inside. If we force our way through, we will probably get attacked back. The person who set up the formation is extraordinary. It's actually a formation that can be used for both offense and defense."

Shopkeeper Wang was stunned when he heard this.

"It seems that these two people really cannot be offended. We can only wait for them to come out on their own." Monk Li shook his head.

Manager Wang sighed. He didn't know how long he would have to wait for them to come out on their own. What should he do? If the restaurant was in his hands, he would definitely lose money this month.

Just then, the door suddenly opened from the inside.
