When the shopkeeper said "only one room left", Han Xue's face turned awkward, clearly not expecting this situation, and for a moment didn't know how to react.

  Li Hui couldn't help but secretly laugh at the situation, Han Xue glared at Li Hui and didn't say a word, her face puffed up in anger.

  "Then let's go to Qingfeng Pavilion!" Li Hui stopped smiling and said seriously to the shopkeeper.

  Han Xue's face turned even redder, unaware of what Li Hui was thinking in his heart. Just then, a voice sounded in her ear: "Xue'er, we still have the immortal mansion, don't worry, I won't take advantage of you."

  "Alright! You two follow me!" The shop assistant exclaimed excitedly, winking at Li Hui knowingly.

  Han Xue finally put her mind at ease, but then felt that something was off. She turned around to see Li Hui's suppressed smile and the shopkeeper's ambiguous gaze towards them. Suddenly, she understood that she had been tricked by Li Hui again. With a hint of anger, she glared at Li Hui, but her face was flushed with embarrassment.

  The two followed the shopkeeper to a room on the third floor called Qingfeng Pavilion, which was quite elegant and spacious. Through the windows facing the street, they could take in the night view of the surrounding area.

  "All right, you can go down now. Don't come up and disturb us unless you're summoned." Li Hui waved his hand at the shop assistant.

  "Don't you two need to bathe and wash up? I'll go fetch water for the both of you." The shopkeeper asked with some puzzlement.

  Li Hui was taken aback, and then he recalled the scene of Han Xue bathing in the immortal mansion last time, his body felt a few degrees hotter again, and he turned to look at Han Xue.

  "It's not needed!" Han Xue said with a straight face, coldly telling the shop assistant.

  The shopkeeper was startled, looking at Han Xue's icy expression, but didn't dare ask more questions. He bowed and replied: "That little one has gone down, if there's anything needed, just call for me." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, still winking ambiguously at Li Hui as he walked away.

  "Hahaha!" As soon as the shopkeeper left, Li Hui couldn't help but burst out laughing, holding his belly.

  Han Xue glared at him, reached out and pinched Li Hui's arm, pouting: "Still smiling! You're deliberately bullying me!" Her face turned crimson.

  "Oh no! Sister Han, I dare not anymore!" Li Hui dodged and exaggeratedly begged for mercy.

  ……

  The two of them tussled for a while before stopping, at which point they stood facing each other. The candlelight in the room flickered, making Han Xue's face look even more delicate and charming. Li Hui's heart skipped another beat, his body reacting involuntarily. He hastily looked away, not daring to gaze at her any longer.

  Han Xue also sensed the ambiguity of the atmosphere, her face flushing red as she lowered her head.

  "Xue'er, let's rest in the immortal mansion for now!" Li Hui said.

  Two people were alone in a room, the candlelight flickering, the beauty was like water, and under such circumstances, it was really hard to calm down. Li Hui felt that even breathing was somewhat difficult here.

  Han Xue nodded, apparently also wanting to escape the current awkward situation.

  Li Hui urged the Xian Fu forward, and immediately a white light flashed, the two disappeared from sight, leaving behind an inconspicuous small stone on the floor of the room.

  The Yuanchuang Xianfu was still as bright as daylight at this time, Li Hui settled Han Xue down, and the two chatted for a while before leaving.

  Li Hui suddenly moved and arrived at Linshui Pavilion, where he examined the Jiao eggs stolen from the Jiao dragon cave.

  The fruit on the spiritual tree still hasn't matured, and there's no sign of the python egg hatching.

  Li Hui's heart moved, and he reached into his storage bag to pull out a jade slip. It was the one he had obtained after killing those two Wan Shou Sect foundation-building cultivators at Su Yue Mountain. Inside, there were also several simple methods for capturing and taming spiritual beasts.

  Li Hui extended his spiritual awareness into the jade slip and took a look.

  Half a time later, Li Hui finally withdrew his spiritual consciousness from the jade slip, and his face couldn't help but have a few points of emotion.

  The method of the Wan Beast Sect in taming spiritual beasts is indeed unparalleled. There are many ways to subdue and cultivate them, with different methods for different types of spiritual beasts and stages of development. As for how to promote these spiritual beasts to a higher level, there are also multiple secret techniques.

  According to the jade slip, the simplest way to capture an egg-born demonic beast is to make it a spiritual beast before it hatches. After becoming a spiritual beast, its loyalty will be the highest, unless its cultivation exceeds that of its master by several realms, otherwise it will never betray.

  This method is not too complicated, and the dragon egg may hatch someday, so Li Hui decided to follow the method in the jade slip to capture it as a spiritual beast.

  Firstly, according to the method in the Jade Simplified, Li Hui used dozens of low-grade spirit stones to set up a strange array around the Jiao egg.

  Then a drop of jīng blood was squeezed out from the body and dripped onto this turtle egg. The jīng blood slowly seeped into this greenish-blue turtle egg, but there was nothing unusual about it.

  Li Hui sat down cross-legged and cast a strange spell, activating the formation made of spirit stones.

  A red glow burst forth from the array and landed on the turtle egg, Li Hui carefully controlled the array, after a while, a faint blood color gradually appeared on the green turtle egg, Li Hui slowly sensed that in the center of the turtle egg, a faint green light was being nurtured.

  That ball of light slowly absorbed the spiritual energy around it, seemingly growing gradually. Li Hui understood in his heart that this was the dragon's primordial spirit nurtured from the dragon egg.

  At this time, Li Hui didn't dare to be distracted, controlling the formation and letting the red light slowly wrap around the green light cluster. The red light was slowly absorbed by the green light cluster, becoming even more powerful.

  Li Hui sat there motionless, and after several hours, the green light mass at the center of the Jiao egg grew a bit larger before stopping, its color also deepening greatly.

  "Hi!"

  Li Hui lightly shouted, carefully controlling the red light emitted by the formation to envelop the green light ball, slowly moving it outward.

  Sweat beads dripped from Li Hui's forehead, this was the crucial moment, if he wasn't careful and damaged that Jiaolong Yuanshen, then this Jiao egg would become a dead egg.

  Slowly, the green light cluster was pulled out of the eggshell and floated in mid-air. Li Hui dared not to be careless, and the red light used its full strength to protect the dragon's primordial spirit from dissipating.

  Li Hui opened his mouth and spat out a grayish-white light ball, which slowly floated into the green light cluster and merged with it.

  Li Hui's body trembled slightly, and he felt a slight stinging pain in his head, which was caused by the separation of a thread of spiritual consciousness from his primordial spirit.

  The yuan Shen separates a thread of spiritual consciousness, which is different from the usual spiritual consciousness exploring things. Spiritual consciousness exploration is like reaching out to take something, while this separated spiritual consciousness is like cutting off one's hand from their arm.

  Li Hui then controlled that green light cluster and returned it back into the Jiao Dan, only then did he let out a sigh of relief.

  At this time, the steps to collect the Ling Beast have been basically completed. In the dragon's yuan Shen, a thread of Li Hui's spiritual consciousness has been planted. This spiritual consciousness is connected to Li Hui's heart and will grow stronger with the growth of the dragon's yuan Shen.

  Through this spiritual consciousness, Li Hui can connect with the dragon's heart spirit and control it. Once the dragon has a rebellious mind, Li Hui will immediately know and can destroy its primordial spirit through the spiritual consciousness left in Qiyuan God.

  Unless the dragon's cultivation is higher than Li Hui by several realms, and his yuan Shen is stronger than him by several times, he may be able to suppress the spiritual consciousness left behind and escape his control.

  After doing all this, Li Hui felt a wave of fatigue and hastily closed his eyes to meditate.

  An hour later, Li Hui opened his eyes, and his spirit had recovered. He calculated the time, and it should be dawn outside by now. It was time to set off for that Ziwei City.

  As for this dragon egg, just place it in a place with dense spiritual energy and wait for it to slowly hatch. This Linshui Pavilion is set up with a spirit-gathering array, so there's no need to deliberately find a place with dense spiritual energy.

  Li Hui's body moved slightly and he came to the outside of Han Xue's room.

  "Xue Er, get up yet?"

  Han Xue did not cultivate that night and had already woken up from her sleep, hearing Li Hui's transmission sound coming from the room.

  The two left the immortal mansion together and reappeared in that guest room.

  Li Hui put away the Yuankai Xianfu, went downstairs to settle the bill, and gave all the silver on his body to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was naturally delighted and thanked the young master and miss for their generosity.

  After leaving the inn, the two of them didn't stop again and walked straight out of Ningyuan City to a desolate place with no one around. Only then did they release their flying swords and flew towards the direction of Ziwai City that Guo Feng had mentioned.
