Chapter 1694 Second Spring Room

With the departure of the Countess Xiurong, Lin Mu and Luo Liqin were brought to the private VIP room.

It was named as the Second Spring room, and was located at the very corner of the floor. Inside, a wide balcony and veranda were attached to a cozy looking room. A large table and seats were prepared for people to use.

Two wide loungers were also present. One in the inner part under the roof while the second one on the balcony. Several potted plants were also kept on the balcony, the flowers of which emitted a pleasant fragrance.

No matter who came here they would find the room pleasant.

But this was only on the surface. The real capabilities of the room were hidden.

There was an extensive formation array covering the room, which included a defensive, a barrier, an isolating as well as an illusory formation. The combination of all of them turned into a dense array that most would find it difficult to read.

Even for Lin Mu, the encryption of the array was something that would take him a while to figure out. It wasn"t like others which he could a.n.a.lyze just from a glance.

"Interesting… I don"t think they would give a room like this to normal VIPs either." Lin Mu reckoned.

The servants gestured to Lin Mu and Luo Liqin, before speaking, "please take a seat esteemed guests. We shall bring you refreshments right away."

"This is the best room we have in our establishment. If you wish for anything else we will be glad to provide that too." The second servant added.

"Oh? This is the best room?" Lin Mu raised a brow. "Then is there a First Spring Room too?" he asked.

On the way, Lin Mu had seen several other rooms. Each being named after a number going from eight to two. This made Lin Mu think that they were numbered in the order of importance.

But the Servant said that the Second Spring Room was the best one despite the fact that there was still the First Spring Room left.

"Ah, if you mean the First Spring room then it is an exception." The Servant replied. "The first spring room is the personal room of the Countess." He revealed.

"I see…" Lin Mu nodded. "I didn"t see it on this floor, so I"m guessing its upstairs."

"You would be right." The Servant said. "If there isn"t anything else, we shall take our leave." He added.

"There might be a few of my friends arriving later. Please guide them here too," Lin Mu added.

After all, he intended to call the acquaintances he had met before.

"It shall be done as you ask." The servant said before taking his leave.

With the two servants gone, the door automatically closed and the arrays activated. Even for the balcony, the illusory formation was covering it. One could look out from inside, but no one would be able to see in from the outside.

In some ways, it worked as a one way mirror. Though with the extra illusions being added, one wouldn"t even see a balcony from the road. Instead, it would just like a straight wall with more runes carved on it.

This allowed the building to have a different shape on the outside and a different structure internally.

"You wish to call the others too?" Luo Liqin asked.

eαglesnovel`c,om "Of course. For what we are going to do, we will need as much help as we can get." Lin Mu replied.

"Won"t having too many people make it difficult or easy to get messy?" Luo Liqin questioned.

"It might, if it is people we don"t know. But the ones I"m going to include are all with the same mission." Lin Mu answered.

"I see… let"s see who can come in this time then. There might be some that have their matches." Luo Liqin replied.

"That"s true. Though hopefully all of them have had at least one match." Lin Mu said before taking out the communication jade slip.

Back during the banquet, Lin Mu had taken all of their contacts thus he could talk to them or send a message as needed. He had not disrupted them during the matches as he knew they might not be available.

Now that it was night time, and most of the first round matches were over, Lin Mu knew it should be fine to message them.

And thus Lin Mu quickly sent out messages, waiting for the response.

For the first three minutes, there was no response from them, but then the Jade slip hummed.

"Who is it?" Luo Liqin asked.

"Ming Aolian and Ming Dandan are both free now." Lin Mu replied. "They have finished two matches each today."

"That"s good." Luo Liqin was still a bit regretful about his match, but quickly suppressed it.

Lin Mu was about to speak again, but then a voice was heard.

"Esteemed guests, we"ve brought you some refreshments." The voice of the servant was heard.

"Come in." Lin Mu allowed them, prompting the doors to open automatically

"Here is our Spring Valley Tea and a.s.sorted fruits. The Countess grows the tea in her own fields." The Servant introduced before placing a tray in front of them.

The tray had two tea pots and several cups. A sweet yet refreshing fragrance could be smelled from the teapot, showing that the tea was of a good quality.

"Please enjoy," the servant said before leaving.

"This tea is an elixir!" Luo Liqin could tell just from a sniff.

"Indeed. It should help in cultivation." Lin Mu nodded and poured two cups for them.

~SIP~

"Ah! Good tea!" Lin Mu could feel the rich immortal Qi from the tea.

It was almost the same as consuming a mid grade immortal stone in one sip. Not just that, but there was a gentleness to the tea, that allowed the energy to be absorbed evenly.

~humm~

The jade slip hummed once more in this time, and Lin Mu received the response from the remaining acquaintances.

"Perfect, they are all coming here in a few minutes."
