Chapter 101: Fairy, Can I Be Your Dog?

The innkeeper took a spiritual stone with excitement, then courteously said to the two fairies, "Please wait a moment," before hurrying off to inform the kitchen staff. As an added gesture, he arranged for the two to be seated in a private room on the third floor.

Leng Yanran's lavish spending also drew the attention of many within the restaurant. Though there were practitioners among the city's residents, it was mostly inhabited by ordinary people. Spiritual stones, being rare treasures, were not commonly used as tableware.

Despite the curious glances from the onlookers, Leng Yanran raised an eyebrow slightly but paid them no undue attention. Even though there were cultivators here, the highest among them was only at the Profound Sky Realm. They were not worth her attention.

Before long, dishes started arriving one after another, served by the waitstaff.

"Senior Sister, I'm starting!"

Li Yourong exclaimed without hesitation. She grabbed a chicken leg and a duck leg with each hand, promptly devouring them. Meanwhile, Leng Yanran's gaze remained fixed on the window, showing little interest in the food before her.

"Mmm... Senior Sister, won't you eat too? After you're full, you'll have the strength to fight later. It's embarrassing for me to eat alone…"

Li Yourong, having eaten half of her portion, noticed that Senior Sister hadn't touched her chopsticks. She couldn't help but speak up. At her invitation, Leng Yanran removed the veil from her face and symbolically took a few bites. She didn't want to make Li Yourong feel guilty with her kind-hearted nature.

Indeed, as expected, with Senior Sister starting, Li Yourong's eating speed increased notably. Leng Yanran observed her enthusiastic eating but noticed she still didn't have an ounce of excess fat on her.

Tsk… no wonder she can eat so much and still look like that.

Outside the window, a handsome young man, surrounded by a group of followers, rode past on a tall and sturdy horse with demonic bloodlines. Almost inadvertently, his gaze shifted towards the third-floor window, and he couldn't tear his eyes away.

"So beautiful… What an enchanting creature. I've never seen anything so captivating."

Lost in thought for a moment, the young man muttered to himself.

"Young Master, Young Master, please don't dawdle any longer. The City Lord will be furious if you're late!"

One of his attendants noticed the young man's distraction and quickly understood the situation. Ah, their Young Master's "admiration sickness" was acting up again.

However, the City Lord was pressuring the young man to return home promptly. If he caused any more trouble on the way, the Lord might not punish him, but the attendants would undoubtedly suffer the consequences.

"Go, go, go. You all go back home first. This time, I've truly found true love! Go and tell my father to prepare for a wedding. I'm getting married!"

Ignoring his attendants' reproachful glances, the young man gestured dismissively and then dismounted from his horse, heading directly into the restaurant. "Ah… Young Master says that every time. But we've never seen him really commit to anything.

"Well, you all go back to the mansion. Report to the City Lord about the situation. I'll keep an eye on the Young Master. We can't afford any mishaps, especially now that there are more cultivators in the city these days. If some fool dares to harm the Young Master, we'll be in big trouble!"

Among the attendants, an elderly man spoke up. Seeing that the young man, Tian Gou, wasn't heeding their advice, he quickly gave instructions to the others before hurrying into the restaurant.

"Hmm, it's actually Young Master Tian of the City Lord's mansion! Why does Young Master Tian have the time to dine here today? I'll arrange the best private room for him!"

As Tian Gou entered the restaurant, a commotion erupted. The noise suddenly ceased when everyone realized who had entered. The innkeeper even rushed over personally to lead Tian Gou to a private room.

"Go, go, go. Carry on with your business. I'm not here to eat. Today, I'm here to propose!"

Tian Gou bypassed the innkeeper and dashed towards the private room on the third floor where he had seen Leng Yanran. The bystanders exchanged puzzled glances.

The people in the city were well aware of the character of the City Lord's young master. Although he didn't bully the weak and often helped the common folk, there was one thing about him that was widely known—he had a reputation for proposing to any attractive woman he laid eyes on.

And so, the city's women, upon receiving a proposal from the City Lord's mansion, initially responded with joy.

However, upon reaching the City Lord's residence, within a mere three days, if this Tian Gou happened upon another charming lady, he would undoubtedly declare his intention to wed anew!

Tsk… At first, the crowd believed Tian Gong to be a loyal dog, but they soon realized he was, in fact, a veritable war hound! He treated each and every woman impartially!

Knock, knock, knock.

"Fairy, I am Tian Gou. My father is none other than the City Lord of this Xuan Tian City. I recently happened upon this vicinity, and upon beholding your celestial countenance, I was utterly captivated. I wonder if I might have the honor of a brief audience?"

Outside the third-floor private chamber, Tian Gou tidied his attire, and then, in a most gentlemanly manner, rapped softly upon the door. Observing no response from within, he decided to introduce himself.

"Pfft… "

Li Yourong, who was sipping soup at the moment, spewed her broth upon hearing the name, narrowly avoiding a soup bath, thanks to Leng Yanran's quick use of spiritual energy to stabilize the liquid.

From the time Tian Gou approached the door, Leng Yanran and the two of them had sensed his presence, but they had no desire to engage.

Leng Yanran, in particular, held a deep aversion to all males except her Master, and she had no inclination to interact. She raised a finger slightly, aiming it at the figure outside the door...

"Wait, Senior Sister, didn't he claim to be the son of some City Lord? This guy must know the location of the Ren family. Why don't we let him guide us?"

Li Yourong's mind suddenly seemed more agile, and she surprisingly suggested.

"Hmm? That could be a solution."

Seeing this, Leng Yanran lowered her finger, then casually pulled her thin veil back over her face. With a slight wave of her hand, she remotely opened the door.

Outside the door, Tian Gou inexplicably shuddered, feeling as though he had just narrowly escaped a life-threatening danger. But as he caught sight of the scene inside the room, Tian Gou's face instantly broke into a wide grin.

"I never anticipated encountering two fairies!"

Although Leng Yanran had veiled her face, her previous countenance had utterly conquered him. Moreover, within the room, there was an adorable young girl with a childlike visage!

Tsk... How can I let this opportunity pass? I must definitely flatter them today!

"Fairy, may I be your faithful dog?"

Amidst the stunned expressions of Leng Yanran and Li Yourong, Tian Gou's expression turned grave, and he asked earnestly.

And following closely behind Tian Gou was the steward of the City Lord's mansion, who arrived a tad late. Upon hearing this, his expression froze. Darn it, he arrived too late—the young master's condition had already acted up!
