《Rise of the Great Emperor 》Chapter 129: Having a ‘Talk’ (1)
Advertisement
Gold coin would be too eye catching in a small village like this. Rather than using gold coin that would make them the target of other people, it would be better for them to just use some silver coins. While it might make them look a bit rich, some other travelers also have silver coins.
It wouldn't attract as much attention as gold coins were.
The nearby inn was good enough so the three of them decided to stay in the inn for the time being. Since their room was at the second level, they could use it to easily look onto their surroundings.
"Why are you gathering in my room now?" Lin Xiao was speechless when he saw Wenren Yu and Lin Yun came into his room. They had booked three rooms so that they could sleep separately at night.
"It's our task to protect you."
"Yep, yep."
Lin Xiao: "…" don't act as if you're my guard. You should know better that you can't even defeat me.
However, the other two ignored his gaze and helped Lin Xiao to watch over the street. The group entered the bar, so it meant that they would drink to their heart's content because of their successful business. Of course, the three of them didn't have any intention to try entering the bar again at this time.
Time passed swiftly.
The four people were still having fun in the bar.
They ate dinner.
The four people were still having fun in the bar.
It was time for sleep.
The four people were still having fun in the bar.
Lin Xiao rolled his eyes when he looked at the bar just a few distance away from him. The four people surely loved to stay in the bar so much. He had been waiting for hours yet they were staying in the bar without any intention to come out.

"This is annoying."
"Yes?"
"Just how many hours do we need to wait before we can even get the fruit of our labor?" Lin Xiao grumbled. He did have patience, but it was annoying when he thought about what those people were doing when he was waiting for them patiently.
Lin Yun smiled bitterly. "We'll take turn to watch from our rooms. When it's time to switch, we'll knock the door."
"Fine."
Wenren Yu and Lin Yun went to sleep first.
The four people were still having fun in the bar.
Lin Xiao were watching intently when he finally gave up and handed the task of watching them over to Wenren Yu. He rubbed his forehead and connected his consciousness to Lin Hu, who had already finished one Spirit Stone.
'You've worked hard.'
'Hmph! Of course I have. Where's the next one?'
Looking at the hungry dragon in front of him, Lin Xiao resisted the urge to laugh and put the second Spirit Stone in his pocket. After dividing the spirit stones into three, they each have four spirit stones.
Lin Xiao was still a distance away from Body Training Rank 10 but it would be getting closer since one spirit stones normally was more than enough to support the cultivation of Body Training Rank 9. Since Lin Xiao had to support both his and Lin Hu's cultivation, the resources he needed doubled.
Based on his estimation, Lin Xiao could guess that he wouldn't be able to advance any faster than the other two. They would surely enter Early Foundation Establishment after they had used up the four spirit stones they have.
As for Lin Xiao…
He would need to search for other treasures.
While Lin Xiao was sleeping, Wenren Yu took the turn to watch.

Wenren Yu woke Lin Yun up and switched the task.
The four people were still having fun in the bar.
Lin Xiao woke up when it was dawn.
The four people were still having fun in the bar.
"…They have great stamina."
Lin Yun smiled bitterly at his brother. He had never expected that the group would stay in the bar for the entire day and didn't even return back. What was more surprising was that the bar also accommodated to their needs and allowed them to stay overnight.
Still, it made those who were waiting for ambush annoyed.
"Shouldn't they be more kindhearted and get out of that bar so we can know where they'll go?" Lin Xiao mumbled.
"It's time for breakfast. Come on, Brother."
The inn was kind enough to prepare breakfast for them, so Lin Xiao asked them to deliver his breakfast to his room. Wenren Yu and Lin Yun took the time to train with the Spirit Stone while Lin Xiao was busy watching over the bar.
The four people were still having fun in the bar.
He felt like the sentence of those four people having fun in the bar to be very annoying. If only it was possible, he wished to drag them out and smash them right here and right now. However, he didn't want to create trouble in this place either.
Just as Lin Xiao was munching his bread, he saw several people walked to the bar and then shouted brazenly.
"BO WU! Come out, you rotten b %^&!"
As series of curses came out of his mouth, Lin Xiao noticed that some people were attracted to the commotion. He also wished to come down and take a look, but he didn't want to be dragged into unnecessary problem.
He chose to stay in the room and watched from the window.
'I wonder what will happen to Bo Wu after this.'
"BO WU!" the man shouted again.
Bang!
The door to the bar was flung open. The four people who came inside yesterday came out one by one. They were currently fixing their clothes and from the expression of the people there, Lin Xiao could guess that they must have smelled so terrible.
Lin Xiao's mind turned blank. Just how much these people drink in just one day's time?

My Newest, and at the same time, Oldest novel. This is a Rewrite of my very first novel that I begun when I was just starting out. It follows the story of Mark Floyd, a broken man who once tried to do what he thought was right... only to be stabbed in the back and thrown away.Now, pulled into a conflict that spans time and space, Mark has a choice to make; Stand up once more, even if it means facing an unknowable future, or let the Embers of his heart die and sink back into darkness. ----------------------------------- “For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity”. Once part of a Special Ops team in the US Army, Mark Floyd thought he had seen the worst that Humanity had to offer. That was until his final mission, one that would leave him a broken and shattered man, betrayed by the Country he served, and abandoned by society as a whole. His dreams filled with nightmares of the ones he failed to protect, mind and memories clouded by booze and more, Mark finds himself stumbling through life without purpose or desire. Life isn't done with Mark yet, however. For as long as even a single ember remains in a persons heart, here is still yet hope for the flames of Passion and Hope to be Rekindled. When the dying embers of Mark's heart catches the eyes of a Being far beyond his understanding, Mark finds himself thrown into a situation not even his years of training could prepare him for. Will this new chance be Mark's hope at both Redemption and Recompense? Or will it simply be the final nail in the coffin for a man already dead to the World? [This is a rework of my very first story. The general story will remain the same, however a few details have been tweaked, the chapters have be Edited better and some chapters have been broken down into smaller chunks for better flow and consistency. The biggest change will be to the System itself; It will be a lot less "Game-like", meaning no stats, levels or similar aspect, though skills will still be present in the form of "Programs". Instead, It'll focus more on the Sigil's nature as super-computers and how they change the world around them. This should make for a much more "natural" and less info-dumpy system.

[NOTE: Ok since I am not able to bring my depressed ass to writing regularly, chapters come when they come. I can't guarantee anything, but I'll try to make chapters more frequent. Btw. In my opinion, my writing gets better after like chapter 6, so I recommend reading at least this far.]
