Chapter 352: Checkpoint (2/2)

”We have arrived at the checkpoint. Everyone, make sure to stay close with the group since there will be many people here.”

The disciples quickly stood up as they nodded their heads.

Sometime later, they could feel the flying treasure slowly descending from the sky.

After a few more minutes, Shan Zhilan and Jing Feng opened the door as they warned one last time.

”Remember, we don't know what kind of people are gathered here, so don't create any trouble.” Shan Zhilan warned as she walked ahead, followed by Jing Feng.

The other disciples quickly followed in a single-line procedure.

By the time it was Yang Wei's turn to leave the flying treasure, his expression turned complicated.

”L-Ling City?” Yang Wei gasped in horror as he was dumbfounded that the checkpoint was surprisingly in the Ling City.

The same city that he had came with Su Mingxia and created a huge scene.

'Please heaven, please don't make us book into the Ivory Hotel. There are so many hotels here that it shouldn't be possible.' Yang Wei prayed silently as he slowly walked toward the group.

”Is there something wrong, Yang Wei?” Lian Xinyue was the first one to notice something was amiss with Yang Wei.

As for Jing Feng and Shan Zhilan, they were too busy reporting their identities and permits to the city guards that they didn't have enough time to look after Yang Wei.

After all, the Ling City was now like a sea of people, and it was impossible to tell who's who.

The traffic is extremely long for people who came to spectate the sect tournament.

Thankfully, it was a bit quicker for those who are participating in the sect tournament as long as they showed their validation and evidence.

”Yang Wei?” Lian Xinyue called out again when Yang Wei didn't respond to her.

Yang Wei snapped out of his daze as he glanced at Lian Xinyue confusingly.

”Y-Yes?”

”Are you alright? You were absent-minded when we left the flying treasure.”

”O-Oh… I was merely surprised by the number of people here.”

Although still a bit doubtful, Lian Xinyue didn't enquire further as she had a feeling that he wanted to hide something.

”I see… Well, just make sure to follow the group closely. Otherwise, you can easily get lost in this kind of situation.” Lian Xinyue warned as she dragged him closer to the group.

Yang Wei nodded his head.

After a few more minutes with the registration, Shan Zhilan turned around and smiled at them.

”Because this year, our sect is aiming for the top, we have decided to reward the disciples, aka you people with luxury.” Shan Zhilan then glanced at Jing Feng.

Her meaning was clear, she wanted her to finish the sentence.

Jing Feng sighed softly as she took a step forward and announced, ”Therefore, we will be residing in the Ivory Hotel during the preliminary round of the sect tournament.”

”Woohoo, we get to stay in the luxury Ivory Hotel.”

”Oh my heavens, I have read an article about how amazing the Ivory Hotel is in treating their guests.”

”Sect Leader Kong is the best. I will definitely put my 100- no, 200% percent of effort when I go to the stage.”

While the disciples cheered loudly as they had never gotten the chance to relax in a luxury hotel, someone was in for a shock.

'Why heaven… Why are you toying with me?' Yang Wei cried inwardly as the one thing he begged not to happen, had actually occurred instead.

Out of every hotel possible, the Swift Feather Sect decided to rent in the Ivory Hotel.

And Yang Wei was sure that as soon as he stepped foot inside, the workers there would recognize him completely.

After all, the scene he had created with Su Mingxia was explosive- if not, it was extremely scandalous.

It was at this time that Jing Feng finally noticed something weird was going on with Yang Wei.

She proceeded to send a mental transmission to ask him what's wrong.

”What's the matter, Yang Wei?” Jing Feng asked in a bit of a worried tone.

Yang Wei smiled bitterly as he shook his head.

”N-Nothing, I was merely excited to visit a luxury hotel for once…” Yang Wei said.

”Oh… I guessed it would be your first time since you came from a small village. Don't worry too much about it, Yang Wei. You have me to guide and take care of you there.” Jing Feng smiled gently at him as she turned around and began leading the disciples.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei wanted to run away as fast as possible.

'Take care of me? I'll be surprised if you didn't want to kill me when you learned of my past here…'
