Sword Among Us

Chapter 1150

: Display of Splendour

The more complicated the situation was at Dragon Gate Inn, the players who were in it became even more excited.

Usually, only Jin Xiangyu and Cao Huaian stayed in Dragon Gate Inn all the time as plot-relevant characters. But now, even Qiu Moyan, who never showed up, showed up with someone beside him. Based on the plot, he entered a room in Dragon Gate Inn and helped Yu Qian’s son and daughter settle down.

Then, a group of scouts and two leaders from Embroidered Uniform Guards also arrived at this place.

However, now, even more people arrived at Dragon Gate Inn.

First, it was this mysterious old man and young man pairing. They gave off an extraordinary bearing, seemed to have great statuses, and were unfathomable.

Then, many wanderers from the various religions and sects arrived in the inn. These people heard of the news of the ruins of the former Dragon Gate Inn, and they also came for the palace in the desert.

Now, a group of mysterious and powerful red-clad Lamas and barbarians entered the inn. Tension instantly swirled in Dragon Gate Inn.

“Those who want to fight, go outside!

“Right when you come here, you cause blood to spill! Why are you still standing around, stunned? Pay me the money for the tables and chairs, and get out!”

Jin Xiangyu hated people causing trouble in her inn the most, but she did not dare to act too arrogantly in front of the red-clad Lamas. She could only bare her teeth at the severely wounded wanderers.

These people had their morale destroyed by the red-clad Lamas. When Jin Xiangyu shouted at them, they did not dare to stay any longer. They tossed a handful of silver on the table. Then, in a dishevelled manner, they supported their injured comrades and avoided the group of red-clad Lamas and went out of Dragon Gate Inn.

The red-clad Lamas entered the inn. When they heard Jin Xiangyu scolding the people, they were not angry. A barbarian who looked like the leader in the group twirled the small brain to the left of his face, and he started speaking in his language.

“￥#%...%#...￥#@”

The barbarian beside him bowed and nodded. Then, he looked up and said to Jin Xiangyu, “Are you Jin Xiangyu, the owner of Dragon Gate Inn?”

“Hmph.”

Jin Xiangyu had been wandering in the world for many years, and she had great judgment. However, when people started causing trouble in her territory, she would not be nice to them as well. She snorted coldly, “I don’t have extra tables to serve you, I’m truly sorry. It would be better if you search for other places to rest—”

Before Jin Xiangyu could finish chasing them away, the barbarian spoke in Chinese and brought out a sack from his sleeves before he tossed it to her.

“Our men were too rough just now, so please forgive us for our bad manners. This is a small token, and please consider it as us making it up to your shop.”

Jin Xiangyu’s hands moved quickly. She seized the item in her hands, and the anger in her eyes slowly faded away when she received that sack. She calmly stuffed the gold into her bra, and like magic, a coquettish smile appeared on her face. “Everyone who wanders about the land will run into things that don’t go their way. Since you’re a logical person, I wouldn’t chase you out.

“Young Wu!

“Are you blind? Hurry up and join the tables together! Then give them wine and food!” Jin Xiangyu ordered her employee as if nothing happened, and she calmly dissolved the tense atmosphere in the inn. This ability of hers made many of the players in the inn speechless.

A young employer with a towel wrapped around his head turned around and grabbed a hammer from the kitchen.

Cling! Cling! Clang! Clang!

In a few movements, two broken tables and their chairs were repaired. Even though they did not look pretty, when they were put together, they would still make do.

The people in the inn then looked at their tables and chairs. It was only then that they realized that their tables and chairs were not that much better than that table’s. They found themselves speechless again. By the looks of it, the tables and chairs in Dragon Gate Inn had gone through hell and back. They wondered just how much money Jin Xiangyu managed to get from extorting her customers for breaking her tables and chairs.

The group of red-clad Lamas did not seem to have the intention to sit down at the entrance.

The barbarian who spoke Chinese did not immediately sit down even after Jin Xiangyu urged him to sit. Instead, he surveyed the customers in Dragon Gate Inn. His gaze fell on the old man and the teenager for a moment before it finally moved to a side hall at the right.

“Owner, please ask the people inside to come out. My master does not like noise, and it would not be convenient for us to sit in the hall. This is your fee for your hard work.”

Jin Xiangyu had just put on a troubled expression when she saw the handful of gold, and the expression immediately faded away. She went off to do her task.

Money could make the world turn, and if it could make the world turn, it could make Jin Xiangyu turn the world.

Just as everyone expected, right after Jin Xiangyu used her charming gaze, two tables’ worth of wanderers in the side hall immediately surrendered to her charms and moved to the hall. However, no one knew whether they were truly convinced to move by Jin Xiangyu, or whether they were intimidated by the Lama elites.

“Many thanks.”

The barbarians sat down while they were protected by the red-clad Lamas. They occupied the side hall to the right.

“What would you like to eat?”

The Chinese-speaking barbarian cast a deep glance at Jin Xiangyu. “You do not need to serve us, owner. My master has a habit of not eating food from inns. That’s why we always bring our own food wherever we go.”

“Our liquor and mutton are very famous. Since you’re so generous with your money, I can make it cheap for you.” Jin Xiangyu flapped her handkerchief in a coquettish manner. “You’re traveling. No matter what, hot food will always be better than dried food.”

The three barbarians ignored Jin Xiangyu. The Chinese-speaking barbarin stood up, raised his hands, and clapped.

Clap! Clap!

The rhythmic sounds instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

Whoosh!

Violent wind gushed in. Dragon Gate Inn’s not entirely sturdy door was opened once again in response to the sound.

A row of barbaric women with alluring bodies covered by black satin walked in leisurely. Each of them held a golden pot, and they looked like a beautiful scene. They gave all the people in the inn a feeling as if they had just breathed in fresh air.

The group of pretty barbaric female servants moved between the tables and placed the pots on the barbarians’ tables at the side hall in an orderly manner. Then, one after another, they stood behind the red-clad Lamas.

The last barbaric female servant opened the lid of the golden pots. In a moment, the inn was filled with a thick fragrance.

Everyone smelled the appetizing scent.

They did not even need to look at the food on the tables. Based on the smell alone, they could tell that the food was not any random meal. They were also definitely hot meals that were just taken out of the pot.

Jin Xiangyu was shocked by the scene before her.

This was the first time she saw someone bring so many servant girls and even his cooks to the desert.

“Tsk.”

But Jin Xiangyu was not an inexperienced fool.

A lavish lifestyle had never attracted her, and after she recovered from her shock, she flung her handkerchief in disdain and gave up on trying to persuade these people to eat her food. Instead, she went off to serve her other customers.

“Just who are those barbarians? They’re treating themselves like the emperor even when they’re just out traveling. They have beautiful servant girls at their prime and guards at Myth Realm. They even have chefs.” Silver Wolf and his party sat at a spot where they could see what was going on outside the inn. At the moment the door opened, they saw quite a large camel fleet outside, and there were more than ten red-clad Lamas and more than one hundred barbarians and barbarian servant girls over there.

“Judging by their appearance, they seem to be merchants, but merchants do not usually display their splendour like this, neither do they have a need to do this.” At the same time Silver Wolf gave this comment, his gaze turned even more solemn. “I wonder if you’ve noticed, but the servant girls are also martial artists—”

“What?!”

When they heard this, Knife, Bar, and Thunder were all shocked. They sucked in deep breaths in disbelief and began to size up the alluring teenagers dressed in satin and who had their faces covered with a thin veil. Their shock became even greater.

Indeed, even though they looked like teenagers whose sole purpose was to be eye candy, each of their gazes contained something unique to martial artists.

Silver Wolf looked away and said, “If my guess is correct, this group of people also came for the treasure in the palace of the desert. And they might be the strongest group to compete for the treasures in there.”

Knife, Bar, and Thunder instantly felt a great pressure on their shoulders. As of current, they saw more than twenty-four Myth Realm elites before them, and if all the servant girls and the camel keepers outside also learned martial arts, this group of people could easily take over the palace.

Silver Wolf and his party were not the only ones who noticed the barbarians’ strength.

The group of Embroidered Uniform Guards in the inn also had extraordinary judgment. They had already made sure that they kept a low profile, and even the four Embroidered Uniform Guards in charge of sentry duty were told to sit. They had their aggressive attitude from before completely faded away.

Right now, most gazes were trained on the side hall to the right.

Only some of the people still paid some attention to the old man who had shown extraordinary lightness skills just now, and they also paid some attention to the teenager who remained calm and did not show his strength.

As time passed, a few other groups entered the inn.

They were all famous elites in the world of wanderers.

Sometimes, the people who had sat down in the inn would stand up and salute those who came later.

The remaining tables were all filled.

Jin Xiangyu smiled even brighter than before. She moved around the hall in the same coquettish and bold manner while she served the customers food and drinks.

But the players basically did not dare to eat the food in Dragon Gate Inn.

All of them knew clearly that they were in an inn which dealt in shady business, and it was a place that would swallow them whole if they were not careful!

Rumble!

At that moment, someone entered the inn. Their presence was known before they even arrived. Based on the sounds of footsteps and neighs outside the door, it seemed like quite a lot of people came over this time!

Silver Wolf and the wanderers in the inn all put on attentive expressions.

“Owner!”

“Ah, when a person is about to get rich, you really can’t stop it. Young Wu, hurry up and clear the storage room by the side to serve the customers.

“Please, come in!” Jin Xiangyu ordered her employee to work while her face flushed happily. She personally invited the people outside to come in.

“Why did she come here as well?”

Silver Wolf had his eyes trained at the entrance. When the door opened, he saw the group who walked in, and he was a little shocked.

Knife, Bar, and Thunder were also astonished. They looked at each other at a loss.

The other players in the inn were also shocked. Then, a quiet, grave air settled on them.

The people who came over were no one else but Wind Assault Tower and their tower master, Phantasmal Shadow!

She was the second most influential person in the Chinese plains now, and she had arrived at Dragon Gate Inn.

There were about sixty Wind Assault Tower members behind her. All of them were tall, strong, and imposing. The large group surged in, and the inn instantly became much more crowded.

The group also started looking around fearlessly, and the atmosphere in the inn became strange.

Phantasmal Shadow seemed to be shocked by the crowded sight in the inn. Still, she swept her gaze over the customers on each table with a calm expression. When she saw the old and young pair ahead of her, she frowned a little.

When she saw the Embroidered Uniform Guards, her eyes lit up.

And when she saw the red-clad Lamas at the side hall to the hall, her attention was completely attracted by that group.
