Psychic Inventor In Cultivation World - Chapter 335 Chapter 329 : : Stalls

“Hahaha… Luis just changing the tone won’t do, change your manner of speech too, at least let the man answer a question before asking the second one,” A red-haired man drinking on the near table laughed at him.

Luis snorted but kept the smile plastered on his face.

“I am Rex. It’s my first time in the city. I want to rent rooms with private baths. I would like my food delivered to the room if possible,” Rex answered all the questions in one go.

After hearing Rex’s reply, Luis’s smile deepened, he turned to the red-haired man and smirked.

The red-haired man ignored him.

“We do have VIP rooms on the third floor that have private baths in them, they cost 1 middle-grade spirit stone for each day, how many of them would you like? Normally, we don’t provide food in the rooms but it’s different for VIP rooms, If you chose a VIP room then not only can you get the food delivered to your room but will also get a discount,” Luis said with a smile. He has noticed the clothes Rex and Lerna were wearing, especially Lerna her dress code was what normally a big family woman would wear, as they don’t like to expose their skin or appearance in public. So he could guess that it won’t be hard for Rex to afford this price and explained everything politely.

Rex was surprised after hearing the price because this much was enough to live in a high-class Inn like Blue Hills Inn for more than a weak, but he didn’t show it on his face, he knew that the man wasn’t tricking him, the location of the inn and bath were the things that raised the price to such an extent.

Rex then looked at Lerna and Jiang Qing and thought.

‘Lerna is going to barge into my room anyway, so renting a different one is useless,’ (Rex)

“I want two rooms, for the night,” Rex said after some thinking, he took out the spirit stone and gave it to Luis.

Lerna’s eyes flickered once but she didn’t say anything. On the other hand, Jiang Qing’s cheeks turned slightly red as she continuously switched glances between Lerna and Rex, she knew Rex and Ye Tian was the same person and Little Aru was indeed his child but she didn’t know in-depth details just like her father, that’s why when she thought about what the young Rex and fully mature Lerna would do in a closed room, she couldn’t help but blush.

Luis lightly laughed when he noticed Jiang Qing blushing, he then took out two keys and walked towards the stairs after motioning Rex to follow him.

Luis took them to the third floor and showed them the room.

Luis left after showing the room and taking the order for food.

“Little Jiang take Mr. Black with you, although you will be staying just next door but it is better to be careful than sorry,” Rex said.

Jiang Qing nodded with a grin, like she understood how he was removing the only hindrance from his way to those nightly activities.

Rex’s lips twitched when he saw her grinning, he was really letting Mr. Black stay with her for protection, if he could woo Lerna just by staying in the same room then he would have done it long ago after all he had slept in the same room as Lerna daily when he didn’t sleep while working or was with Ria.

The food was soon delivered to their room, it wasn’t as tasty as the soup Lucia’s makes but hunger can make anything tasty, Rex ate all the dishes but Lerna stopped eating after one bite, she mostly ate because of taste and not because she was hungry that’s why the food didn’t catch her attention.

After eating, Rex sat cross-legged and cultivated until midnight, he stopped after reaching the Core Breaking 7th stage in Qi cultivation.

’70 points? Add all into INT,’ Rex said without hesitation, he refrained himself adding points into INT before because his physical wasn’t in balance but he didn’t have a problem like that right now.

[Allocating status points….]

The familiar headache assaulted him again but by now Rex was already used to it, notification alerts related to the effect of Limit-Break appeared and disappeared during the whole process Rex remained calm, and like always the headache subsided after few minutes.

Rex opened his eyes and first looked at Lerna who was lying on the bed with a book in her hand and sighed. She wasn’t wearing the veil, gloves, or the long dress from before, she has changed her getup just after she came into the room. Earlier when she was thinking about where to change her dress and Rex suggested that she can do it in the bathroom she agreed but, instead of her Rex had to stay locked in the bathroom while she changed, this really gave him a headache. Then again she was following his advice to stay low-key by wearing those clothes and bracelet even when she didn’t like them so it was already enough for him.

He checked his updated status.

The increase in INT wasn’t normal, he could feel a cool sensation embracing his mind but right now he was too tired to thoroughly check it.

Rex then looked at the notification from earlier.

[Congratulations! You have awakened the physique ability ‘Electrokinesis’.]

‘Give me a brief and direct description,’ Rex said, the name of the ability said a lot about it, so he was just confirming it, he didn’t think that opening the whole description was of any use.

[Electrokinesis gives you the power to freely create and manipulate electricity, the power behind the ability depends on you. Electrokinesis doesn’t make you immune to electricity but you can freely channel electricity while the ability is in use.]

‘Hmm… Electricity? If I remember correctly, lightning is an electrical discharge caused by an imbalance in charges so if I can control electricity then…’ Rex thought.

[Yes, you can.]

Rex didn’t talk more, he raised his hand and activated Electrokinesis.

..Crackle…Crackle…

Blue electric sparks appeared around his hand and swirled between his fingers.

‘Good, with this, my Atmokinesis, is finally complete,’ Rex thought.

“Huh?” Lerna looked at him in surprise. Lightening law also came in a rare category, she had a deep impression of it because of her thunder tribulation. If a person had comprehended lightning law then it could provide some help in resisting thunder tribulation but it was not omnipotent, after all, tribulations weren’t just related to lightning.

“How did you comprehended lightning law?” Lerna asked in surprise.

“Just got some insights while cultivating,” Rex said with a smile, he then stood up, took a few steps, and led on the bed beside her.

Lerna snorted, she had heard this excuse too many times already.

Rex closed his eyes and was about to sleep when Lerna spoke again.

“You made that clone write so many books, so have you read all of them in the past?” Lerna asked.

“Hmm… I used to love reading books, but then stuff happened and I am racing against time to become stronger,” Rex said with his eyes closed.

“Why?” Lerna asked again.

“Because if I am not strong enough then the things I have earned so far can be snatched by someone else,” Rex said.

‘Isn’t she being unusually talkative today?’ Rex wondered because Lerna usually holds small conversation if Little Aru is not involved in them.

“Aren’t I strong enough?” Lerna said.

Rex opened his eyes and deeply looked at her, he then smiled.

“What?” Lerna said in a disgruntled tone.

“So you want to take care of me now? Why?” Rex asked with a smile.

“Humph… I was just thinking of doing you a favor, now you can forget about it,” Lerna said in an angry tone, she then put the book in her storage ring, turned her head to the opposite side, and rested.

Rex just smiled and didn’t say anything else. he too closed his eyes, soon his breathing became slow as he went into a deep sleep.

In the side room…

Jiang Qing was walking back and forth in her room while looking at the wall from time to time.

She then glanced at Mr. Black who was sitting cross-legged on the floor, he was in sleep mode. She finally couldn’t hold back and pressed her ear against the wall but she still didn’t hear anything.

‘Are the walls really that thick?’ She thought.

She kept strolling around for another hour before finally lying on the bed and sleeping.

Next-Day…

Rex and others met up with Tang Xuan and headed to the market.

“Master Rex, the market here is famous for the wholesale trading of goods. The goods mainly include edible ingredients for dishes and spirit fruits that are harvested around here.

Aside from that, the street food here is also famous, many chefs who loves adventure and keeps on traveling all the time while carries ingredient with them sets up their temporary stall in places like this,” Tang Xuan said.

Rex nodded. He didn’t have any expectations for it, only Jiang Qing seemed excited.

Just when they entered the market, Rex’s steps halted, he inhaled a familiar fragrance wafting in the air. He looked at the source and his eyes widened.

The market here was different than the one he had seen until now, a line of small wooden stalls was arranged on the right side, people were crowding around them. What Rex was looking at the first stole, an old chef was showing his excellent knife skills as he cut down all the spirit vegetables on the board in thin slices and prepared several servings of the dish in one go.

What caught Rex off guard was not the chef’s knife skills or his Heaven Venerable cultivation base but the food he was making.

‘Sliced veggies, spirit lettuce, spirit tomato slices, meat and cheese that are stuffed between a sliced bun, no matter how I see this thing, it’s a… fukking Hamburger!’ Rex screamed inwardly.

If that was not enough, he looked at the second stall and saw the chef taking out boiled noodles.

The third stall was selling something akin to momos.

The fourth stall had a barbeque setup…

‘Cultivation my fo….’ Rex couldn’t help but curse.

Rex breathed deeply and calmed himself down, he then found himself wanting to try the food, he turned to others to suggest about eating when he realized that Lerna and Jiang Qing were missing from the group.

He looked at the first stall again and saw Lerna and Jiang Qing sitting on the wooden seats in front of the stall.

The previous three-seat holders were lying on the ground a few meters away from Lerna, they were dumbly looking at her while holding the burger in their hands, they still didn’t realize how they got here.

A few seconds ago they were excitedly munching on their burgers but in the next second, a cool wind flew past them and they were sitting on the ground.

“This… what happened?”

“Heavens, did this old chef mixed something in my Spicy Bun?”

“Hey, who did this? my spicy bun fell on the ground I need compensation,”

The chef was at a loss, until now, he was showing the demeanor of a mysterious expert while hiding his Heaven Venerable cultivation base but even he didn’t see what just happened.

Rex rubbed his temples, he had a headache because of these two gluttonous women.
