"Why are you knocking? Are you still going to let people practice?" Zhongli Tingzhou leaned his shoulder lightly against the door frame. His clothes were a little disheveled, but his eyes were sharp and bright.

Before Shopkeeper Wang could react, Monk Li immediately smiled.

"You misunderstood, sir. We didn't mean to disturb you, but our shop has a rule. The five-day spirit stones you paid for have arrived, and now it's the sixth day."

Fearing that his words would offend the other party, Monk Li added, "Of course, if the guest wants to continue staying, that's fine too. It's also okay to pay after you finish your stay."

"No need, we'll leave today." Before Zhongli Tingzhou could speak, Gao Han's calm but firm voice came from the room.

"Okay, when the time comes, just go to the counter and return the badge." Monk Li's attitude was very humble, leaving Shopkeeper Wang confused.

Back on the first floor, Shopkeeper Wang asked, "Brother Li, didn't you just agree not to let them stay and stop the loss in time? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Although the result was better than they expected and the two guests above took the initiative to leave, he was really curious.

Monk Li is in charge of the Tianjiu Restaurant, so his cultivation is naturally not low. He is only one step away from breaking through to the out-of-body stage, and is a powerful monk who has reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.

Even if a cultivator in the out-of-body stage came to Tianjiu Restaurant, he would have to give Monk Li some face, because the mayor of Tianjiu City was standing behind them, and no one would dare to offend them.

Of course, the only people who can make Monk Li treat them with such respect are those who are at the Out-of-Body Stage or above.

"That man just now had an extraordinary bearing, and he is in the late Nascent Soul stage. He is so young, and his moves are extraordinary. There must be a big force behind him. Forget it, the loss is not that big anyway. If the higher-ups investigate, I will explain it and everything will be fine. Just watch carefully. I'm leaving first."

Monk Li walked away with his hands behind his back, shaking his head. In fact, there was one thing he hadn't said.

Tianjiu City is not far from Zixiao Sect. It is a distance of two hundred miles and it is possible to go back and forth within half an hour, so it is better to be safe than sorry.

Those monks who bully others by relying on their status and strength only happen in folk operas.

He didn't even dare to offend Monk Li, and Shopkeeper Wang didn't dare to mention the matter again, and went back to the counter silently.

Upstairs, Zhongli Tingzhou closed the door and returned to the inner bedroom. Seeing Gao Han already dressed, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

After the torment was over, it was paradise, so enjoyable that this innocent virgin could not help but indulge himself again and again. If Gao Han had not kicked him away when the restaurant staff knocked on the door, he would have lost his temper.

"Why don't we practice for a few more days? Look how good the results are. You are only one step away from breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and I am only one step away from breaking through to the Out-of-Body stage."

As Zhongli Tingzhou spoke, he kept recalling the feeling. That thing was truly indescribable. No wonder so many people couldn't control their lower bodies. If Gao Han was willing to stay in bed with him every day, he wouldn't want to care.

"Are you sure you're just practicing?" Gao Han smiled gently.

Zhongli Tingzhou wanted to say the word "of course" confidently, but the words got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them.

If he dared to say it out loud, Gao Han would definitely do it and make it so difficult for him that he wouldn't even get a piece of meat.

"We agreed to practice dual cultivation, why did it turn out like this? It's too logical." Zhongli Tingzhou sighed.

“If you don’t guard your essence, the stored energy will leak out. How can you expect to practice dual cultivation?” Gao Han glanced at him.

Zhongli Tingzhou continued to sigh. He had done everything, but in the end he had to hold it in, unable to move or vent. It was like a piece of meat that he had been coveting for hundreds of years was placed in front of him. He had already bitten into it, but he couldn't chew it. His mouth was full of the aroma of meat. It was testing his willpower and endurance, and he had to be on guard against the possibility that he could not hold on and be kicked away by Gao Han.

Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at Gao Han's body and gritted his teeth and said, "One day, I will definitely create a technique that can break the barrier of the essence."

"Really? I wish you good luck." Gao Han said without much sincerity.

Zhongli Tingzhou's eyes lit up, "So you support me?"

Gao Han, who could tell what he was thinking at a glance, had a blank expression on his face. "You think too much. If you want to test it, you should test it yourself."

Zhongli Tingzhou was extremely disappointed.

"However, this technique is indeed very powerful." Gao Han said thoughtfully.

Although he guessed from the beginning that the effect would not be too bad, he did not expect that the effect would be so good that he could hardly imagine it.

They practiced together for three days, and it only took three days for his cultivation to break through from the middle stage of the Golden Core to the Great Perfection. He was only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage.

If he hadn't been afraid that a breakthrough here would cause too much noise, he might have chosen to break through directly, but in the end he held back.

However, Gao Han glanced at Zhongli Tingzhou and found that his effect was actually better than his.

The higher the level of cultivation, the slower the improvement. In this case, he actually broke through from the early Nascent Soul stage to the late stage in one fell swoop. No one would believe this speed if he told others about it.

Master Yao Feng was originally worried that Gao Han's cultivation would not be able to improve much before the arrival of the Ten Thousand Immortals. If he knew that their speed was so fast, he might be frightened.

"Yeah, who would have thought that this isn't a dual cultivation method for men and women." Zhongli Tingzhou said with amusement.

Gao Han was silent for a moment, "Well, I really didn't expect it."

He had always felt that there was something strange about this dual cultivation method, but it was not until he started practicing it five days ago that he knew why.

Because this is a method for dual cultivation between men, and I don't know who changed it into a method for dual cultivation between male and female cultivators. Otherwise, if such a top-level method was placed in the Kung Fu Collection Pavilion, perhaps some male disciples would really not be able to resist and would pair up to practice dual cultivation.

Although Zixiao Sect does not object to two male disciples being together, it still hopes that men and women can be more mainstream. Gao Han can understand all this.

However, if a dual cultivation technique created for two men is changed to a man and a woman, the effect may not be so obvious, so they can be said to have stumbled upon it by accident.

"Put your clothes in order. It's time for us to go back to seclusion." Gao Han walked out of the room.

Zhongli Tingzhou just had to dig it a few times.

It is unknown how happy and tearful Wang, the shopkeeper at the counter on the first floor, was when he saw them finally coming down.

Although Monk Li said that, the restaurant's performance was related to his income, so he still hoped that the performance would be better. After seeing the two off respectfully, he felt relieved.

Afterwards, he went to ask Master Li about the consumption of spiritual energy. Sure enough, after only two days, the consumption had doubled or tripled, and was almost the same as the previous three days. These two people must be devils. Fortunately, they did not stay any longer.

With such a fast absorption rate, no one knew what they did in there during those five days. He had never heard of it before.

The spiritual energy consumption of Tianjiu Restaurant is calculated on a whole basis. The so-called one or two times refers to the consumption of all the rooms combined. It is conceivable that the absorption of the two of them is equivalent to that of so many people.

"Boss, we'll come again next time." Before walking out of the restaurant, Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly turned around and said happily to Boss Wang who had just breathed a sigh of relief.

Shopkeeper Wang’s legs went weak and he thought, “Oh my god, why are you coming again?”

After he was out of his sight, Gao Han said to him, "Don't scare others."

"Who made him act so impatient? We are the guests." Zhongli Tingzhou snorted. Don't think he couldn't see that the two men were afraid that they would suck all the spiritual energy of Tianjiu Restaurant, so they went to find them. They dared to ruin his interest, so what if he threatened them.

"Any other restaurant would want to drive us away." Gao Han spoke the truth. They all knew that they absorbed spiritual energy very quickly, several times faster than a normal cultivator would consume. It was normal for the other party to be worried. After all, a restaurant is open for business, so how could it make sense to lose money?

Zhongli Tingzhou strode forward and leisurely put his arm around his shoulders, "Why don't you not rush back today? We finally got out here, let's go shopping before going back."

This action caused passers-by to look over involuntarily.

It is normal for women to hold hands and hug each other, but when it comes to men, it looks awkward no matter how you look at it.

"Then go for a walk and then go back." There was no reason for Gao Han to not agree to such a small thing. The two of them had already done the most intimate thing.

"Where are we going?" Zhongli Tingzhou, who had agreed to go for a walk, asked him in return.

Gao Han thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the largest material shop in Tianjiu City. I want to find some special materials. I wonder if they are available here."

Zhongli Tingzhou asked: "Is there no Zixiao Sect?"

Gao Han: "If you had me, you wouldn't be looking for me here."

The price offered by Zixiao Sect was half off the market price, so there was no reason for him not to use this privilege, but he had to get what he wanted as well.

Although the Zixiao Sect has a lot of collections, not everything is available. Even if there is any, not all of them are released for exchange by disciples and elders. Some materials or elixirs are priceless and scarce even in the Zixiao Sect, so these things will naturally not be taken out.

The two walked slowly on the crowded street, but they walked slower and slower. There were crowds of people around them, and the flow of people seemed to be almost pushing towards them.

Zhongli Tingzhou was pushed down onto Gao Han.

Gao Han's eyes were slightly cold, "If you rub me with your bottom again, believe it or not..."

Zhongli Tingzhou immediately stretched out his body and frowned at the crowd that was pushing towards them. "What's wrong with these people? They keep pushing towards us. Are they doing it on purpose?"

"I don't know whether they did it on purpose, but I know you did it on purpose. So the question is, did you do it on purpose?" Gao Han looked at him with a smile.

Zhongli Tingzhou coughed lightly, "How is that possible? They pushed me, so I accidentally rubbed against you. Besides, we are partners, so it won't be a big deal if we rub against each other."

Gao Han was amused by his twisted logic, "Really? Then it shouldn't be a problem if I beat you up, right?"

Zhongli Tingzhou covered his face, "I'm so handsome, can you bear to do that?"

At this time, the man who seemed to have noticed them for a long time coughed lightly, "You two brothers are really interesting. I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation, but why don't you run away quickly?"

"Why are you running?" The two of them looked at the man together.

"It seems like this is your first time in Tianjiu City," the man said, and then he glanced in the direction of the crowd that was crowding over again, and seemed a little anxious. "This is not the place to talk. It will be too late if we are late. You guys follow me first."
