A large room isn't really necessary; a sturdy big bed would be fine, since Mu Shuangshuang is relatively restless.
It's not that the little scorpion has a strong need, but rather that... her tail is so fancy that it could easily tear the sheets.
Compared to Ning Yuyao, who is a "petty bully," and Zhu Li, who "takes advantage of others and then discards them," Mu Shuangshuang is perfect in every way except for the pain of her stings. She always provides Shen Yunhao with the ultimate physical and psychological enjoyment.
Lingmu was also responsible for taking care of Hongyu, whose injuries had not yet healed, so she did not accompany the two of them.
Of course, although Lingmu wasn't very quick-witted on a daily basis, she was still quite perceptive in certain matters. Knowing that this trip to Zhongzhou was her young mistress's "honeymoon period," she didn't need to keep following along as a third wheel.
Not only do you get fed dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), but you also get disliked by others, and you might even have to offer your little butt when necessary. It's really not worth it.
No one else followed them on the way. Shen Yunhao took Mu Shuangshuang to Hanxuan City to catch the nearest Lingxiao Flying Boat.
Zhongzhou is the largest and most expansive continent in the Tianji Continent. The Tianyu Dynasty, where Hanxuan City is located, is situated on the eastern side of Yunzhou, while Wanren City, where the Cangqiong Sword Pavilion is located, is situated on the western side of Zhongzhou, near the Dark Abyss.
There is also a horizontal (east-west) distance of more than 30,000 li between the two, and the Lingxiao Flying Boat departing from Hanxuan City will fly south and will not be able to reach Wanren City directly.
This requires the two to "transfer" at the Lingxiao Flying Boat headquarters in the very center of Zhongzhou... which is also within the territory of the Taixuan Dao Sect.
In total, the time spent on the Lingxiao Flying Boat alone will take up a full half month!
Fortunately, there's still a month and a half until the kendo tournament officially starts in early May, so there's plenty of time for the journey...
The enormous Lingxiao Flying Boat resembled a giant city suspended in the clouds, its hull constructed of bronze and spirit wood gleaming with a cold luster under the sunlight.
Passengers boarded the ship one after another and went into their respective reserved cabins.
This airship will depart from Hanxuan City and head towards the headquarters of the Taixuan Dao Sect located in the heart of the Central Continent.
Shen Yunhao and Mu Shuangshuang found their own rooms.
This time, Shen Yunhao once again chose the medium-sized room on the third floor.
Mu Shuangshuang's face was covered by a thin black veil, revealing only a pair of bright, dark brown eyes.
"Honey...didn't we agree to book a large room? Why are we squeezing into this tiny place?"
Shen Yunhao rolled his eyes at her. "Do you think it's appropriate for someone of your status to live in the main room? There are so many Tai Xuan Dao Sect disciples watching outside..."
"..."
Indeed, although the fifth floor is a "high-end area," it also means that they will be taken care of by more disciples of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect.
If Mu Shuangshuang's identity were exposed, it would be a catastrophe!
"Honey, is this bed sturdy enough?"
Mu Shuangshuang walked to the bedside, her tone carrying a hint of mischievous laughter. Her fingers seemingly unintentionally traced the edge of the bed, leaving several shallow white marks on the hard spirit wood surface.
Shen Yunhao's eyes twitched slightly, and he coughed twice, saying, "Well... it should be alright, after all... Hey! Stop, stop! Don't untie it yet..."
Shen Yunhao quickly pressed down on the little scorpion's hand, which was on the belt around his waist, and said irritably, "Can you tone it down a bit? It's broad daylight!"
The girl quietly stuck out her tongue, but then sat on the edge of the bed and kicked her floor-length dress at her feet.
"I don't want to wear this; it's not my style at all..."
As the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, Mu Shuangshuang rarely appeared in public on the righteous path, so she could previously run around freely in a short skirt...
But that's definitely not an option now. Putting aside whether such avant-garde attire would subtly reveal her status, her two slender, white legs alone would attract countless eyes.
And now, the so-called lack of style...
The girl sat down next to Shen Yunhao, nuzzled him with her leg, and said with a smile, "Honey, you want to see it too, right..."
"..."
To put it bluntly, she still had ulterior motives towards Shen Yunhao!
Shen Yunhao promptly rolled his eyes at her, "Fine, you can wear whatever you want in your room. I'm going to go up to the deck for some fresh air..."
"Huh?"
If you leave, who am I supposed to wear this for?
"Hey! Honey, wait for me!"
After settling in briefly, the two went up to the deck for some fresh air.
The deck is spacious and furnished with comfortable rattan chairs and small tables. It is surrounded by a transparent spiritual energy shield that can protect against the strong winds at high altitudes without obstructing the view of the magnificent mountains and sea of clouds below.
Even before the airship officially set sail, people could be seen boarding it one after another in the distance.
Shen Yunhao leaned against the railing and suddenly recalled the first time he rode the Lingxiao Flying Boat a few years ago.
Back then, I also set off from this station, heading towards Lingyou Valley...
The little scorpion pouted and leaned against Shen Yunhao, its face showing a hint of resentment.
Shen Yunhao couldn't help but laugh when he saw her like this. He patted the girl's head and said, "You're such a lecherous girl. When did you get assimilated by Sister Li'er?"
"Hmph!" Mu Shuangshuang snorted lightly. "Fun fact, you haven't given me a single one since we met! That's not fair at all!"
"???"
What does this have to do with fairness?
While Shen Yunhao was in a daze, a nearly blue scorpion tail tip with a jade-like luster pierced through the fabric of the skirt in an instant, and like a mischievous little snake, it quickly stung Shen Yunhao's firm thigh!
"Hiss!" Shen Yunhao was caught off guard and gasped.
"What are you doing? That hurts!"
Mu Shuangshuang didn't seem to care, turning around and saying, "Look! It seems like my skirt is torn..."
"Huh? You can do that?"
Seeing her fair skin peeking out from the hole, Shen Yunhao had no choice but to give in and decided to take her back to her room.
Just then, a loud, booming voice, filled with surprise, rang out from the other end of the deck:
"Hey! Brother Shen?! Is that Brother Shen Yunhao up ahead?"
Shen Yunhao was slightly taken aback. He turned his head and saw a burly man wearing an animal skin shirt walking towards him.
The man was nearly two meters tall, with bulging muscles that made his coarse cloth outfit look bulge. His bronze skin shone with oil, and he walked with a powerful stride, exuding an imposing aura.
"You...you are...Brother Ma!"
"Brother Shen, it really is you!"
The big man came running over, opened his arms and gave Shen Yunhao a solid bear hug, his large hands slapping Shen Yunhao's back with loud thuds!
If this had happened before, Shen Yunhao would probably have been slapped to death, but now…
"My goodness! Brother Shen, your physique... wow, you've gotten quite a bit stronger in the years!"
The person before him was none other than Ma Tianyu, the rogue cultivator from the desolate continent whom Shen Yunhao had met when he first rode the Spirit Sky Flying Boat!
That's Brother Ma, who traveled all over the world just to catch a glimpse of a stunningly beautiful woman!
