"Boss, if we can't find a place to stay, does that mean we'll have to sleep on the streets?" Xia Zhiqing looked at Bai Li Hongzhuang helplessly, this was something she hadn't anticipated before.
Bai Li Hongzhuang glanced at their surroundings and nodded, "Seems like it."
"Oh my god!" Xia Zhiqing lowered her head, after today's long journey, all she hoped for was to take a quick shower, but it seemed impossible now.
Seeing Xia Zhiqing's dispirited appearance, Bai Li Hongzhuang couldn't help but find it amusing and chuckled softly.
"Don't worry, even if we're the first ones to rest on these streets, many other cultivators will be arriving soon. We won't be the only team here."
Bai Li Hongzhuang remained optimistic. It felt similar to camping outside the city walls. Resting within the city was much safer than outside, without the threat of demonic beasts. Besides, they wouldn't stay in Wu Guang City for long anyway. They just needed to wait for the prohibition in the ancient ruins to dissipate.
Seeing Bai Li Hongzhuang's optimism, Xia Zhiqing also stopped complaining. In fact, she had rested outdoors numerous times in the wilderness, but it felt strange to stay on the streets with so many cultivators watching.
As the seven of them continued their search, they finally discovered two vacant houses when they were about to give up. Their eyes brightened with delight.
"Haha, there are still two houses available. That's great!" Xia Zhiqing exclaimed with a smile.
Although the number of houses was limited, having any houses was much better than none at all.
"In that case, one room for the men and one room for the women?" Yuan Xiaoman asked.
Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded slightly, "Let's arrange it that way."
They wouldn't stay in Wu Guang City for long, so two houses would be enough.
However, just as Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others were about to enter the houses, a loud voice rang out from behind them.
"We'll take those two houses!"
Hearing the arrogant voice from behind, Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others simultaneously furrowed their brows and turned around.
In their line of sight, they saw a robust man looking down on them with disdain, and behind him stood a group of cultivators, their heads held high and a sense of pride on their faces.
Their arrogant demeanor clearly showed that they didn't take Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others seriously.
After seeing the appearance of this group of cultivators, Xia Zhiqing couldn't help but lean close to Bai Li Hongzhuang's ear and whispered, "Boss, they're from the Xingming Dynasty."
Bai Li Hongzhuang's phoenix-like eyes narrowed slightly. She was not unfamiliar with the cultivators in front of her.
During their journey from other cities to Wu Guang City, the Xingming Dynasty was a team that traveled alongside them.
However, unlike their low-key approach, the Xingming Dynasty was extremely arrogant. They would directly attack any cultivators who provoked them. Along the way, Bai Li Hongzhuang witnessed many clashes between the Xingming Dynasty and other cultivators, resulting in the demise of those who dared to confront them.
Unexpectedly, they had encountered them here now.
The Xingming Dynasty was also a medium-sized dynasty, but among the medium-sized dynasties, they were undoubtedly one of the top teams.
It was precisely because of this that the cultivators from the Xingming Dynasty were so arrogant.
Although they had aroused the dissatisfaction of many cultivators, no one dared to speak out due to their strength.
