Chapter 2722: Chapter 2722: Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation Fourth Prince, Judson Dragonsmith
Seeing the servant’s familiar actions, Wyatt Barnes realized:
In this Flowing Year Guesthouse, there should be many guests with similar needs.
After all, those who stay in the Flowing Year Guesthouse to evade enemies must be unwilling to leave rashly. Who knows if their enemies are lurking outside the guesthouse’s door, just waiting for them to step out?
And the guests staying in the Flowing Year Guesthouse inevitably have needs, such as needing a certain Pill Medicine, requiring materials for alchemy or potion-making, or even needing a particular Immortal Talisman.
"Alright."
After receiving the red cloth strip, Wyatt Barnes and Leilany followed the servant into the guest room.
Because the Flowing Year Guesthouse covers a vast area, despite there being nine hundred and ninety-nine guest rooms inside, each room is still very spacious, resembling a large courtyard with three rooms inside.
Two of them are situated inward, while the other is near the courtyard entrance.
"Greetings, guests."
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Wyatt Barnes heard a pleasant voice.
He scanned his eyes to see a young girl dressed as a servant standing by the gate, greeting him.
The girl was quite pretty, though not as stunning as Leilany or his two wives, she was still above average in appearance.
"Guests, each of our rooms comes with a servant girl... Their duty is to take care of the guests’ everyday needs. Additionally, without compulsion, if the servant girl is willing, guests may engage in certain activities between men and women."
The servant’s words were routine but left Wyatt Barnes feeling a bit awkward.
Meanwhile, the servant girl sneaked a glance at Wyatt Barnes, noticing his handsome and charismatic face, her cheeks immediately flushed.
"Sir... these servant girls are all virgins."
The servant looked at Wyatt Barnes meaningfully and added.
"You mentioned the servant girl’s willingness... what if she isn’t willing?"
Wyatt Barnes asked curiously.
"If the servant girl is unwilling, guests are not allowed to force them... otherwise, it will be considered a challenge to our Flowing Year Guesthouse and will face severe punishment from us."
The servant explained.
"Why didn’t you warn me? Aren’t you afraid you’ll get me into trouble?"
Wyatt Barnes gave the servant a glare, somewhat annoyed.
"Guest, I didn’t deliberately not warn you... it’s just that I think there’s no need to remind you. To them, being with you for a night is a blessing, and I’m sure no servant girl would decline you."
The servant chuckled bitterly as he flattered Wyatt Barnes.
"If you don’t believe me... you can ask her."
As the servant spoke, he turned his gaze to the servant girl.
Wyatt Barnes instinctively followed his gaze.
"If the guest wishes for me to accompany you... I... I... am willing..."
As Wyatt Barnes looked over, the servant girl felt her heart flutter, and by the time she finished speaking, the word ’willing’ was barely a whisper.
"Ahem..."
Upon hearing the servant girl’s words, Wyatt Barnes felt awkward and turned to the servant, saying, "Little Six, if you have no other business, you may leave now."
"Yes, guest."
The servant assumed Wyatt Barnes was in a hurry and left Wyatt Barnes with a knowing smile before leaving and closing the courtyard door.
"What is your name?"
Wyatt Barnes asked the servant girl.
"Guest, I... I am named ’Orange’."
The servant girl replied with a blush.
"Orange, there’s no need for you to blush... I... I won’t have you do that with me."
Wyatt Barnes took a deep breath and straightforwardly said, "Do whatever you usually do, as long as it doesn’t interrupt our cultivation."
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, the servant girl realized she was mistaken in assuming they had romantic tension and couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed.
"Brother Leandro... Little Six said you could do things between men and women, what exactly are things between men and women? Also, he mentioned this sister is a virgin, what exactly is a virgin?"
A voice delightful as music came, attracting the servant girl’s attention.
Despite being a woman herself, she was drawn to Leilany’s enchanting voice, as if entranced by its melodic lull, unable to escape.
"So... he already has someone by his side."
The servant girl glanced at Leilany and realized the captivating guest already had a companion, even though she wore a hat and veil. Upon closer inspection of her facial outline, she could affirm the girl was prettier than herself.
For a moment, she couldn’t help but sigh.
"Leilany, these things you speak of, you are still young, not yet ready to know... someday, when you grow older, you will understand."
Wyatt Barnes said to Leilany.
"Brother Leandro, I’m not young anymore, I’m already thirteen years old this year."
Leilany said somewhat unhappily.
"Thirteen years old?!"
Upon hearing Leilany’s words, not only Wyatt Barnes but also the servant girl beside him was taken aback, stunned.
Thirteen years old?
The maid scrutinized the white-dressed woman in front of her, her perfect curves that made her feel inferior, which didn’t seem like something a thirteen-year-old girl should have...
"Thirteen? Leilany, are you... only thirteen?"
Wyatt Barnes slowly returned to his senses and looked at Leilany with astonishment, asking uncertainly.
"Yes."
Leilany nodded.
"You... your tribe, all mature so early?"
Wyatt Barnes chuckled wryly.
Only then did he remember, Leilany wasn’t purely human, she carried half ’Mystical Fox Tribe’ blood, and mystical foxes are intelligent Immortal Beasts awakened in the machinery of heavens.
"Leilany, let’s go back to the room."
Realizing there were others nearby, Wyatt Barnes called Leilany, leading her into a room inside, and casually closed the door.
Seeing this, the maid ’Orange’ completely gave up.
...
As Wyatt Barnes and Leilany settled into the Fleeting Year Hostel, the Campbell family’s fourth young mistress, ’Jenny Campbell,’ also returned to the Campbell family.
Meanwhile, the incident she encountered today spread throughout the Capital City of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, and it wouldn’t be long before everyone in the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation knew about today’s affair:
She, Jenny Campbell, eldest miss of the Campbell family, set her eyes on a man, wanting to take him as a ’male pet’...
But, got rejected.
Moreover, after being rejected, the man remained alive and well, while her entourage was killed in public.
"Who exactly is he?!"
"He said he spared me for the sake of the Campbell family... it shows he still has some fear of our Campbell family."
"No! This matter... cannot just be left like this! I, Jenny Campbell, have never lost so much face!"
...
Returning to the Campbell family soon, Jenny Campbell, bearing resentment, left again before today’s incident returned to the family, going to the ’Royal Palace’ where the Imperial Family of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation is.
The Campbell family estate’s size is already considered very extensive.
But the ’Royal Palace’ where the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation’s Imperial Family resides, has an even more extensive area, almost occupying the entire eastern side of the Capital City of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, and surrounded by a river encircling the entire palace.
"Greetings, Miss Campbell!"
When Jenny Campbell approached the palace gates on foot, the guards recognized her and greeted her.
Because she was anxious, Jenny Campbell stepped directly towards the interior palace.
However, she was stopped.
"Miss Campbell, although we all know you... according to palace rules, please present your access token."
The leader of the guards at the palace gates bowed respectfully to Jenny Campbell.
"Here."
Jenny Campbell impatiently retrieved a token wrapped in silver light from her Storage Ring, flashing it before the guard leader, who verified its authenticity and stepped aside, ushering Jenny Campbell into the palace.
"I’ve guarded the palace gates for years, but this is the first time seeing the Campbell family’s fourth young mistress so hurriedly enter the palace... she must have encountered something, right?"
A guard speculated.
"Isn’t it obvious? If it weren’t something urgent, would she be so hasty, forgetting to present her access token?"
Another guard commented.
And after entering the palace, Jenny Campbell promptly sought her closest relative in the Imperial Family, her cousin from her father’s sister and the emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation’s son.
Also the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation’s ’Fourth Prince,’ one of the most outstanding three sons under the emperor’s edict.
If nothing unexpected, the next emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation will be chosen from these three outstanding princes, including the ’Fourth Prince.’
"Jenny, what brought you to find your cousin in such a hurry, did something happen?"
In the foreyard of the Fourth Prince’s palace, within a pavilion, a young man in a gold-trimmed green robe sat before a stone table, smiled and asked Jenny Campbell who just seated on the opposite side, with a shrewd glint in his eyes.
The young man is robust, tall, handsome and resolute, with an exceptional temperament, precisely the Fourth Prince of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation:
Judson Dragonsmith!
Dragon, indeed, is the ’Imperial Surname’ of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation.
"Cousin, help me investigate someone... If I don’t find out his ’background,’ I can’t resign myself!"
Jenny Campbell said with an unsightly expression to Judson Dragonsmith.
Today’s young man in purple, although potentially with uncommon background, they the Campbell family cannot easily provoke...
But until she finds out the other’s background, she cannot simply let the matter go.
Maybe, he has no background at all?
"Who do you want to investigate?"
Judson Dragonsmith asked with some surprise.
It was the first time he saw his cousin with such an unsightly face, his heart was instantly kindled with some curiosity about the person Jenny mentioned...
Who exactly is it, to make his cousin so agitated?
