Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

The two attendants led Xu Zhangqing and the others into the hall while introducing it.

Deep Sea Hall offered only three types of elegant rooms: Chen Yuan, Jing Luo, and Jiao Gong; different names represented different scales.

Chen Yuan was mainly for drinking tea and idle chat.

Jing Luo was mainly for banquets and drinking wine.

Jiao Gong was mainly for resting and joint membership.

Because Xu Zhangqing and Zhao Wuji and the others numbered more than ten, the attendants assumed they were friends together, bypassed Chen Yuan, and came directly to the entrance of Jiao Gong elegant room.

Inside was very spacious, with the faint sound of some musical instrument drifting out.

It sounded very pleasant; even before entering, people had already relaxed.

Zhao Wuji asked, "Together?"

Xu Zhangqing smiled and shook his head: "I won't disturb Daoist Friend Zhao; let's part ways."

The two attendants' expressions remained unchanged, but they were surprised in their hearts.

They never expected they had misunderstood.

It turned out they were not traveling companions.

At this moment, Eldest Young Master of the Su Family, Su Le, to make up for his mistake, immediately said: "These few are disciples of Dongting Immortal Sect; whichever elegant room they choose, put it on my account."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing they were immortal sect disciples, the two attendants' gazes, attitudes, and tones became even more respectful.

Originally, Xu Zhangqing planned to take Hu Bugui and the others to Chen Yuan elegant room first to see the situation inside, after all, this time was too early.

Now seeing there was a sucker, his eyes immediately brightened.

Jiao Gong!

It had to be Jiao Gong!

Whether early or late didn't matter; he couldn't let others' good intentions go to waste!

The three elegant rooms represented three specifications and three prices.

Chen Yuan was the cheapest, only needing to spend 100 middle-grade spirit stones.

Jing Luo doubled, meaning a minimum spend of 200 middle-grade spirit stones.

Jiao Gong quintupled, casually costing 1000 middle-grade spirit stones.

And the more people, the higher the price.

Xu Zhangqing's party of four, if they all chose to perform joint membership with merfolk, the more times and the longer the time, the higher the spending would rise, even without limit.

Therefore, although Su Le smiled on his face, his heart was actually bleeding, and unfortunately, the words already spoken could not be taken back.

Otherwise, it would be equivalent to completely offending several disciples of Dongting Immortal Sect, and even indirectly causing Zhao Wuji to lose face.

Upon hearing Xu Zhangqing and the others chose Jiao Gong, the female attendant among the two attendants laughed lightly and said: "Immortal Masters, please follow me!"

Xu Zhangqing saluted toward Zhao Wuji: "Daoist Friend Zhao, let's part ways for now!"

Zhao Wuji raised his hand expressionlessly and replied indifferently: "Mm."

Afterward, the two groups completely separated.

Xu Zhangqing's four followed behind the female attendant, stepping deeper step by step.

Vaguely, it seemed someone was singing.

Although the specific content couldn't be heard clearly, the singing was melodious, making people feel refreshed and happy.

Xu Zhangqing felt it looked more and more familiar, and whether in decoration style or furniture style, it was very similar to the Water Spirit Palace in his personal space.

Upon asking, he learned that Jiao Gong was replicated according to the Deep Sea Dragon Palace.

The walls were embedded with "Living Jade" that could breathe, and within the jade were sealed ancient merfolk ballads.

Therefore, this was why although no one could be seen, singing could be heard.

"Let me come again!"

"This Immortal Master, you have already performed joint membership for seven consecutive days and cannot continue!"

"My body is very good, why not let me?"

"Although your body is good, your spiritual power is already chaotic; rest a bit before coming again!"

"Then... then next time I must have Lixin serve me!"

Xu Zhangqing and the others had just arrived at the entrance of Jiao Gong when they saw a middle-aged cultivator in tattered clothes reluctantly walking out from inside.

Judging by his appearance and posture, if not for the attendants stopping him, he probably still wanted to go in.

Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing and the few exchanged glances, looking forward to what came next even more.

The two sides had no connection, passed each other directly, and then everyone entered Jiao Gong.

Just as they entered, they saw a bubbling water pool in the center, with fine silver light rippling inside; on the coral case table by the poolside, tea and fruit had long been prepared.

In the pool bowed a woman-fish wearing a black merfolk silk long robe; she was the attendant responsible for guiding Jiao Gong, named Xuan Zhu.

Xu Zhangqing and the others were seeing a merfolk for the first time and couldn't help but carefully size her up.

The part of Xuan Zhu half-submerged in the pool water was a gradient indigo blue, turning into transparent ice blue near the waist; the scales were very fine, with extremely fine silver threads embedded on each scale.

When swinging her fish tail, the silver threads would light up with a faint purple fluorescence, dragging long ribbons of light on the water surface.

The upper body wore a short jacket woven from Deep Sea Ice Silkworm Gauze; the gauze was as thin as cicada wings, faintly revealing the star-like silver scales distributed on the shoulders.

The collar was embroidered with wave patterns that shimmered with a flowing luster as she breathed.

Her neck was long and slender, with three pearl-like marks arranged in an arc on the left side of her neck hollow.

Her features carried the crisp clarity and vivid beauty unique to ocean creatures.

Her brow bones were slightly high, her eyebrows silver gray.

The tails of her eyebrows tilted slightly upward, like fish fins leaping from the water.

Her irises were an extremely pale glazed color, with a halo like scattered gold around the edge of her pupils; when she looked at people, her gaze was clear but not direct, as if separated by a layer of flowing seawater.

Her nose bridge was high and straight, her nose tip round and moist.

Fine breathing pores were distributed on both sides of her nostrils.

Her lip color was coral red, her lip line clear.

When she smiled, two shallow dimples rippled at the corners of her mouth.

Most special was her hair, black as deep-sea ink, reaching her waist, with no hairpins, only a few strands of silver seaweed casually wrapped around it.

Her ear fins were translucent pale purple, with wavy edges, and two teardrop-shaped beads hung from the fin tips.

Seeing Xu Zhangqing and the others enter, Xuan Zhu smiled sweetly, her voice clear and melodious like a whale song: "Welcome, Immortal Masters! Before service, please choose a joint-membership attendant according to your cultivation!"

Hu Bugui couldn't help but ask: "What do you usually eat?"

Xuan Zhu blinked, then answered truthfully: "Spirit algae, fish and shrimp!"

Zhao Ziyue followed closely: "Then... what kind of fish hook do you like?"

Xuan Zhu blinked her eyes, a bit confused: "Sorry, what are you asking?"

Xu Zhangqing pushed Zhao Ziyue aside with one hand: "Nothing, let's begin!"

Hearing this, Xuan Zhu immediately clapped her hands, making a crisp "pa pa" sound.

Afterward, in the room on the left side, five merfolk came out one after another.

Three of them were Silver-scaled Merfolk.

Two were Black-scaled Merfolk.

Silver-scaled Merfolk wore pendants ground from fluorescent fish gallbladders behind their ears.

Black-scaled Merfolk wore a pearl necklace around their necks.

There were males and females, all quite handsome.

Xuan Zhu introduced: "Silver-scaled Merfolk cultivate the Tidal Qi-Drawing Technique, suitable for Qi Refining Stage Immortal Masters.

Black-scaled Merfolk cultivate the Spiritual Power Resonance Technique, suitable for Foundation Establishment Stage Immortal Masters."

Xu Zhangqing was very curious: "What exactly does joint membership mean?"

Xuan Zhu replied: "You can understand it as deeper Yin-Yang Harmonization!"

Xu Zhangqing thoughtfully asked: "Are there only these few?"

Xuan Zhu said seriously: "If you are dissatisfied, you can keep choosing!"

Xu Zhangqing stepped forward, staring straight at her: "How about choosing you?"

Xuan Zhu smiled slightly, showing two shallow dimples: "I have a different price!"
