Chapter 226: Chapter 226: The Old Monster and the Beautiful Girl (2)_1
"A card? A card that is higher than mine? Mine is the second-highest level available here, are you saying hers is even higher?" Tian Rumeng’s voice rose as she spoke, seemingly to boast about the prestige of her own card. "I have always stayed in this room, and now you’ve given it to someone else! Do you not want to work here anymore?"
"Miss Rumeng, the other party really is..."
"Whose dog is barking in front of my room?" Dugu Qianye opened the door and said, looking at Tian Rumeng.
Tian Rumeng, who had wanted to scold the attendant, turned around upon hearing Dugu Qianye’s voice and said disdainfully, "Whoever you are, hurry up and move out, I want to stay in this room."
"Hmph," Dugu Qianye scoffed, "Why should I?"
"Because my status is nobler than yours! Do you know who I am? I am the young mistress of the Tian Family from Ula County!" Tian Rumeng said proudly.
"The young mistress of the Tian Family from Ula County?" Dugu Qianye asked.
Ula County was the largest county on the Spirit Void Continent, with the widest area, the most cities, and also the highest overall strength. The Tian Family was the largest clan in Ula County, with an extensive family system and numerous experts, holding considerable status on the Spirit Void Continent.
"Hmph, now you understand, don’t you? Now that you know, hurry up and vacate the room," said Tian Rumeng, thinking that Dugu Qianye was intimidated by her background.
"I’ve never heard of it," Dugu Qianye said. "Although I’m not sure what your family is, it must be decent enough for you to act this way. Nonetheless, your family should have taught you the principle of first come, first served, right?"
"What did you say?! Are you saying I lack manners?" Tian Rumeng’s shrill voice could be heard throughout the building, "What gives you the right to accuse me of having no manners?"
"Isn’t it true? This is a hotel, not your home. You just arrived and you want me to give up my place, not even understanding the principle of first come, first served. I’m really curious, is it just you who acts this way, or is this what your family taught you!" Dugu Qianye said unhurriedly.
"You’re asking for it!" Enraged by Dugu Qianye’s words, Tian Rumeng began to throw a tantrum and pulled out a Water Snake Whip to strike at her, but as she swung the whip behind her, she couldn’t pull it forward.
"Which bastard dares to grab hold of my whip? Do you have a death wish?" Tian Rumeng cursed as she turned around, wanting to see who was bold enough to grab her whip. If it was that attendant, they were as good as dead!
But her arrogance deflated as soon as she saw who it was.
"Master Hao, what are you doing here?"
Yawning, Hao Pengyou said, "If you can be here, why can’t I?"
"I, I..." Tian Rumeng was at a loss for words.
Everyone on the Spirit Void Continent knew that Hao Pengyou hated being disturbed in his sleep the most. Waking him up carried consequences not everyone could bear. Apart from his master, not even his several senior brothers were allowed to disturb his slumber! Now that she had woken him up and saw his annoyed expression, her heart trembled.
"Master Hao, I was just trying to get her to give up the room to me, I didn’t mean to disturb you," Tian Rumeng hurriedly explained.
"You wanted her to give up the room to you?"
It might have been an illusion, but Tian Rumeng felt that Hao Pengyou’s expression had grown even colder. Staring into his eyes, she could only stiffly reply, "Yes."
"Ah—"
"Bang!"
Hao Pengyou, gripping the whip tightly, flung Tian Rumeng toward the stairwell in one forceful movement. Dugu Qianye was slightly surprised; she hadn’t expected him to possess such physical strength.
At the sound of Tian Rumeng’s scream, the Tian family members rushed upstairs, finding her sprawled at the stairwell entrance. Tian Ruo’ao, her brother, helped her up and was about to stand up for his sister when he realized the other party was actually Hao Pengyou.
"What is the meaning of this, Master Hao? I am unaware of any offense my sister may have caused you to merit such treatment," Tian Ruo’ao said, suppressing his anger.
He looked around and saw that the room his sister liked was not the one Hao Pengyou was staying in but the one behind the woman. What could have angered Hao Pengyou so much as to throw her out? Apart from sleeping, his greatest passion was appreciating beautiful women. It was only when the two clashed that he would give a cold shoulder to a beauty.
"Hmph, Tian Ruo’ao, your Tian family really has some nerve, to even imagine coveting my junior sister’s room. You also thought about evicting my junior sister? Tsk tsk, and you have the audacity to ask me why?" Hao Pengyou said coldly.
What? That woman was Hao Pengyou’s junior sister? Wasn’t he supposed to be Shi Honggui’s youngest disciple? When did he get a junior sister?
Tian Rumeng and Tian Ruo’ao looked toward Dugu Qianye, only then noticing her astonishing beauty.
It must have been her allure that won over Hao Pengyou, leading him to introduce her to Shi Honggui as a potential disciple! Tian Rumeng thought resentfully. I am also beautiful; could I possibly also become a disciple of Shi Honggui? Although Hao Pengyou’s looks were average, upon closer inspection, he was quite pleasing to the eye. Coupled with his status, he would not be an unsuitable candidate for a husband. If I could marry him, who would dare to bully me in the future? With this thought, she couldn’t help but cast flirtatious glances at Hao Pengyou.
Hao Pengyou glanced at the Tian siblings with disgust and roared, "Scram!"
Dugu Qianye stood with her arms crossed and couldn’t help but chuckle, seeing Hao Pengyou’s displeased expression. The first time they met, she had awoken him, and even frightened him so much that he fell to the ground. Now thinking back, she realized she had indeed been very lucky at that time.
"You’re laughing? They’re bullying you right to your face, and you don’t even resist?" Hao Pengyou scolded Dugu Qianye.
"I was about to take action, but you came out before I could start, not giving me a chance," Dugu Qianye said.
"So, was I being too nosy?" Hao Pengyou asked with a sullen face.
"How could that be nosy? Protecting your junior sister is what you should be doing, right?" Dugu Qianye retorted. Thinking of the Tian siblings, she asked, "What is your relationship with Master? Why are the Tian siblings so afraid of you?"
"You really don’t know? Didn’t I tell you Master’s name already?" Hao Pengyou stepped forward and knocked on Dugu Qianye’s head.
"You mentioned Master’s name, but you didn’t explain what he does or his status," Dugu Qianye said.
"You..." Hao Pengyou stared at Dugu Qianye, speechless. "I should never have overestimated you! You’ve been on this continent for so long and still are clueless about the powers here. I know more in my sleep than you do awake!"
Dugu Qianye, scolded by Hao Pengyou, had nothing to say in her defense—the truth was the truth after all.
Seeing Dugu Qianye’s innocent expression, Hao Pengyou sighed helplessly, saying, "Even though the Spirit Void Continent is divided into over twenty counties, the Alchemist Guild, Artifact Refiners Guild, Spiritual Master Association, Mercenary Guild, and Beast Trainer Guild do not correspond to any county divisions; they only have the main headquarters and local branches. Our Master is the head of the main Spiritual Master Association. Now do you understand?"
