Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator

Raws of soldiers were lined up at the entrance of the city lord's palace. They bowed their heads after seeing the peak fifth stage expert who was guiding the Shen clan group towards the palace.

"There should be no problem in your teleportation portal, right?", elder Tong asked the peak fifth stage expert.

"No senior, there is absolutely no problem with the ancient teleportation portal of our city", the peak fifth stage expert replied.

He led the Shen clan group through a long stairway and finally the Shen clan group managed to look at the beautiful palace from a close distance.

"Greetings senior"

A beautiful lady was waiting for them at the entrace. She smiled towards Shen Ruyan after greeting elder Tong.

"Senior, my young miss is the current city lord of Hundred blossom city", the peak fifth stage expert introduced the noble looking lady to elder Tong.

"Are you somehow related to Lord Baimei?", elder Yang chose to appear as he threw a curious glance towards the beautiful city lord of the Hundred blossom city.

"Greetings senior. Please receive this bow from Yueyue", the city lord bowed her head towards elder Yang.

Elder Yang nodded his head but he still looked towards city lord Yueyue as he was looking for the answer of his question.

"Senior, your are correct. She is the great grand daughter of lord Baimei", the peak fifth stage expert answered the question of elder Yang for her.

-----------------

"Girl, you have grown big", city lord Yueyue looked towards Shen Ruyan who was sitting inside her room.

"Big sis, it has been only half an year since we have last met. So, how can I grow big in such a shorter life span?", Shen Ruyan shook her head. She didn't notice the teasing eyes of city lord Yueyue while replying to her remark.

"I didn't mean you yourself has grown big. What I mean is....", city lord Yueyue pointed towards a certain part of Shen Ruyan which was indeed bigger than before.

Shen Ruyan blushed immediately after understanding what city lord Yueyue meant. Her cheeks flushed red as she threw a charming glare towards city lord Yueyue.

"Big sis, I am not sure whether I have changed or not but you remain the same hooligan as before", Shen Ruyan spoke. City lord Yueyue giggled after hearing the words of Shen Ruyan.

Even though she was laughing and teasing Shen Ruyan, her noble demeanor didn't reduce at all. Every single movement of her body had a certain charming aura about it.

"Big sis, this is what I am most envious about you. No one knows you are such a delinquent behind your beautiful appearance", Shen Ruyan spoke.

She talked with city lord Yueyue for a while but when she chose to leave her room, city lord Yueyue looked towards Shen Ruyan as if she had forgotten something.

"Big sis, what is it?", Shen Ruyan felt confused.

"Girl, don't think you can fool me. Tell me who is he?", city lord Yueyue looked towards Shen Ruyan.

,m A flustered expression appeared on her face for a moment but she managed to control her emotion within a split second.

"Big sis, it is not that I am hiding anything from you but I can't really tell you anything at this moment. Please give me some more time. I will tell you everything at that point", Shen Ruyan spoke.

City lord Yueyue nodded her head but a thoughtful expression appeared on her beautiful face after Shen Ruyan left. "Who is it that managed to win Ruyan's heart?", city lord Yueyue murmured to herself. What she didn't know was the fact that the culprit was currently living inside her palace.

A lavish feast was arranged for the Shen clan group in the city lord's palace. There were some unique dishes which were native to the central region of Northern desert continent. The warriors of Shen clan and Zhan Chen enjoyed the feast to their hearts' content.

After the feast, the Shen clan group rested for a while. They chose to leave when day break approached the Hundred blossom city.

"Zhan Chen, we are leaving", Shen Ruyan bade her farewell to Zhan Chen inside his room. Su'er and Ling'er also had reluctant looks on their faces as they looked towards Zhan Chen.

"Girls, what is with your looks? You are only going for some days. You will probably join me once the Grand sect competetion starts", Zhan Chen spoke with a comforting tone to Ling'er and Su'er.

"Both of you can stay with Zhan Chen if you want", Shen Ruyan looked towards both of her maids. Both of them shook their heads as they bid their farewell to Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen planted a kiss on each of their foreheads before they left his room.

Zhan Chen accompained the Shen clan warriors to the ancient teleportation portal. Kai Min, Li Shu and Li Yan also accompanied him as all of them wanted to bid their farewell to the Shen clan group.

The ancient teleportation portal was arranged on a circular platform which lied next to the southern boundary of Hundred blossom city. There were complex diagrams drawn upon the circular platform.

Elder Yang of Shen clan took out some rectangular looking stones from his spatial ring and placed the rectangular stones in the middle of the stone platform.

The ancient diagrams lit up in brilliance as elder Tong led the Shen clan group to the stone platform. Ling'er waved her hand towards Zhan Chen, Kai Min and others and Su'er also did the same.

All of their figures disappeared after they entered the range of the ancient diagrams on the stone platform. The platform list it's brilliance after it consumed the energy stored inside the stone.

"Young master Chen, what should we do next?", Kai Min looked towards Zhan Chen.

"Let's look for an inn first. It will be impolite if we continue to stay in the city lord's palace", Zhan Chen replied.

Li Shu, Kai Min and Li Yan agreed to his suggestion as they followed behind Zhan Chen to enter the city.

"Boss, we want four rooms for us to stay", Zhan Chen spoke to a middle aged man who was the innkeeper of Serene wood inn.

"Three low grade spirit crystal for each. Tell me first how many days you want to stay inside our inn?", the middle aged innkeeper looked towards Zhan Chen.

"Probably next two to three days", Zhan Chen spoke. He took out a handful of spirit crystals and handed it to the middle aged man before he could calculate the price of their stays.

"Wait, I will pay mine", Li Yan spoke after Zhan Chen handed over the spirit crystals to the middle aged innkeeper. Zhan Chen threw a glance towards Li Yan who was looking at him stubbornly.

"Do as you please. You can give him extra spirit crstals if you don't want me to pay for your staying", Zhan Chen spoke.

Li Yan stood undecided for a while but she didn't pay any extra amounts to the middle aged man.

The middle aged innkeeper pocketed the spirit crystals quickly and led the group of Zhan Chen towards their rooms.
