When Lin Yuming and Irene met, the two of them brought their contract partners, and they were surprised why each other appeared here in the middle of the night. On the dark streets, the roads are lined with a few crooked old trees, and some of the houses on the side of the street are still lit, while others have been dimmed.

"Why are you here?" Lin Yuming spoke first, the branch of the treasure caravan in Lingyuan City was near here, it was understandable that he appeared here, the Yijia Mansion could be said to have crossed the distance of half a city from here, Lin Yuming was a little puzzled.

"It's okay......" Ireen shook her head with a look of loss, "By the way, do you know where there are hotels around here? ”

Hearing this, Lin Yuming felt a little weird, one of the four major families in Lingyuan City, the eldest lady of the Yi family, kept her own mansion and secretly ran out in the middle of the night to live in a hotel, what kind of habit is this?

Looking at Yilin's face, Lin Yuming also knew that Yilin didn't want to say the reason, so he didn't ask, and lowered his head and thought for a while: "I've been wandering around the neighborhood for the past few days, I've seen a few in the hotel, are you sure you want to stay in the hotel?"

"Well, take me there. Yilin nodded and motioned for Lin Yuming to lead the way.

On the way to Lingyuan City, Lin Yuming and Yilin understood each other's personalities. Lin Yuming knew that Yilin was cheerful, and when she was in a good mood from time to time, she would have mischievous thoughts, a typical eldest lady's personality, but in some aspects, it was something that other daughters couldn't do, and the knowledge of survival in the wild was incomparable to that of a normal rich lady.

came to the door of a hotel that Lin Yuming once passed. Lin Yuming and Yilin walked in together. Although it was already late. Behind the counter of the inn, the old man who seemed to be the owner of the inn was still sitting there, looking at a book by the lamplight, and seeing a guest coming, although it was two children, he did not slack off.

"Staying in the hotel?" the boss asked, looking up and asking simply and clearly.

"Yes, the boss will open a room. Irene stepped forward and pulled a money bag out of her pocket. He asked casually, "How much does it cost for half a month?"

After listening to Yilin's words, the old man's eyes became a little strange when he looked at Yilin and Lin Yuming, and he looked at them with some doubts, thinking about whether he was too young, and asked, "Uh, one room, is it enough to live?" In order to hide the meaning, the old man pointed to the stone and the white night standing beside Yilin and Lin Yuming respectively.

Irene listened to the old man's words and understood what he meant, and her face turned slightly red. Only then did he explain: "I live alone. ”

Lin Yuming didn't know what the old man meant, and stood on the side. After the old man completed some formalities for Irene and handed over the door key to Irin, he followed Irene to the second floor of the inn, no different from other inns, a deep corridor, lined with doors on both sides of the corridor, and the lights in the corridor were fluttering.

Maybe the hotel is too remote, although the decoration is not very simple, but there is a warm feeling, but it doesn't seem to have many guests, Lin Yuming and Yilin only saw a few doors with Do Not Disturb signs on the doorknobs along the way, proving that there are guests living here.

Finding the door corresponding to the number on the key, Irene opened the door and walked in, it felt similar to the outside, and the room was also a warm atmosphere, Irene looked around a little and nodded with satisfaction.

"Hey, the inn has also been found, you have to tell me what's wrong, you also said that we are friends, you should know the reason" Lin Yuming saw that Yilin began to tidy up the room and ignored himself, and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Huh?" Realizing that she seemed to be a little snub to Lin Yuming, Yilin, who was thinking about her thoughts while tidying up the room, came back to her senses, listened to Lin Yuming's words, pondered for a while, and then said: "The first day you went to Lingyuan City, you also saw that the entourage at home wanted to forcibly take me back, because of this year's competition, I had a conflict with my father. ”

"Huh?" Hearing the competition again, Lin Yuming was a little curious, and quietly waited for Yilin's next words.

"I don't know if you've heard of the competition, it's a prosperous era for our country to select outstanding talents among the young beast spirit masters every year, and there are countless outstanding beast spirit masters who stand out from it every year, in the competition conference in previous years, including my two elder brothers, many excellent beast spirit masters were selected from it, and then became the pillars of the Ten Thousand Beast Country. Irene looked a little yearning in her eyes, "I finally survived to the age where I could participate in the competition, but my father didn't want to allow me to participate, so I ran away from home and met you outside, and you know what happened after that, tomorrow is the last day to register for the competition, so I ran out today and signed up by myself tomorrow." ”

"So that's ......" Recalling what he had just come to Lingyuan City and what he saw, Lin Yuming, who had already had a little guess, then applied for his own thoughts slightly, "Uncle Yi, why didn't he let you participate in the competition?"

"......" Irene was speechless for a while, and after a while she whispered, "He's worried that I'll be injured in the competition." ”

Stunned, Lin Yuming suddenly understood Yi Moliang's mood, and then looked at Yi Lin, I didn't know if this was a bad thing or a good thing, so I stopped talking about this matter, chatted with Yi Lin for a while, and then left the small hotel, and wished Yi Lin a good result in the conference before leaving.

Walking out of the hotel, Lin Yuming looked at Bai Ye on the side and asked, "It's so late, do you still want to look for that thing?"

"Forget it, there's no way to determine the direction, there's no clue, so don't look for it for the time being. Bai Ye shook his head, and the two returned to the Treasure Caravan Branch together, along the way, although Bai Ye was no longer looking for it today, he still sniffed around with his nose all the way, trying to find some clues, until they arrived at the Treasure Treasure Branch, but it was still fruitless.

......

The next morning, in the hotel where Irene had stayed yesterday.

"Stone, don't walk around here, I'll go to the martial arts arena to sign us up, and I should be back soon." Irene sat on the edge of the bed, touched the stone that was still lying on the bed, and said softly. Stone, with his eyes half-open a little lazily, glanced at his master, and nodded slightly, as if in response.

Standing up, Irene patted her cheek to make herself a little sober, knowing her father's personality, she also knew that there would definitely be eyeliner left by her father at the registration office of the martial arts arena, even if she didn't take herself back immediately, she would follow herself to this hotel and make a note of her residence, so Irene had already prepared the means to deal with it.

Walking out of the door, the spiritual power in Yilin's hand flashed, and a delicate human skin mask appeared in her hand, Yilin pulled the edge of the mask slightly, full of elasticity, and nodded with satisfaction, Yilin put the mask on her face with a smile, and when she raised her head again, the original girl's appearance had completely changed, and with the men's clothes on Yilin's body at this time, she was a handsome young man.

"Hmph, see if you catch me again, what's wrong with the competition, just show you a champion. Humming a little tune, Yilin walked out of the hotel, looked around, determined the direction of the Lingyuan City Great Martial Arts Arena, and walked straight away.

......

"It's really strange, that smell of soul treasure disappears every day, and then appears again at night, what's going on?"

"I don't know, I'm not like you, I can smell the smell of that soul treasure, and my cultivation is not high......" Lin Yuming took a sip of tea, this is the top-grade tea that Xue Yi brought over, called Qingye Tea, it is a specialty near Lingyuan City, and it is also one of the few products in the Ten Thousand Beast Kingdom that has nothing to do with foreign beasts, "Bai Ye, you said that if we go to participate in the competition of young beast spirit masters, what ranking can we get?"

"Huh?" Bai Ye raised his head and looked at Lin Yuming with some confusion, "Hmm...... If everyone at that conference is at the same level as that girl and little leopard, there should be no problem in winning first place. Do you want to participate? I don't think you're someone with that kind of interest?"

"Say whatever you want. Lin Yuming stretched and lay down on the back of the chair that was unfolded behind him, "Brother Xue also said that day, the competition here in Lingyuan City is only allowed to participate in the competition of the Ten Thousand Beast Country, we have no chance, but ......what about it?"

"But what?" asked Bai Ye with interest.

"In two years, in the place where I grew up, there will be a continent-wide competition for young spiritual masters, and maybe there will be a chance for us to show our talents, and my most important friends will participate together. Lin Yuming looked at the blue sky in the distance, and there was some look of expectation.

The young man in front of him seemed to have suddenly changed into a person, and the kind of temperament exuded from his body deeply attracted Bai Ye's attention, and he didn't quite understand where the emotion on Lin Yuming's body came from, Bai Ye scratched his neck with his front paws in confusion, could this be what his ancestors said in their memories, about human feelings?

"Bai Ye, do you know the ability of the Spirit Master?" Lin Yuming suddenly asked.

"Hmm, why did you suddenly ask this again, of course you know......" Bai Ye couldn't react to Lin Yuming's speed of changing the topic.

"Let's go to the ring, you show me, now that the strength has reached the ninth order of the spirit controller, of course we have to try to break through, if we can break through the spirit master before returning to Falling Star City, they will definitely be surprised." Lin Yuming stood up and urged.
