In the hot spring inn, it seemed like they were the only group of guests. Sifumo led the group boldly into the interior of the Mountain Wildflower House. He skillfully arranged rooms for Wen Wen and the others as if he were the host. After putting their luggage down, he brought everyone to the living room.
To the slight surprise of the group, this time Sifumo didn’t get lost. His sense of direction here was even better than the other people at the inn.
The inn’s interior was typically styled in Sakura District fashion. However, the arrangement of the rooms was somewhat perplexing, easily causing people to lose their sense of direction. It took everyone a bit of time before they could move freely here.
The proprietress was a woman with her hair up and unnaturally pale skin. She had a tear mole at the corner of her eye. Sifumo called her Zhi Xue, and they seemed to have a good relationship.
"This inn, like Wuxian Village, is protected by the local Hunter Association. Normally, this hot spring inn only entertains Demon Hunters, in exchange for a degree of freedom to move around and the special foods they require from the Association."
"Everyone, please feel at home here. Zhi Xue will take good care of you all." Sifumo found a chair and sat down.
Wen Wen nodded. All these women had the aura of Supernatural Power. They should be some kind of creatures from the Inner World.
Since the purpose of coming here was to enjoy, Wen Wen didn’t use his perception to scan everything. Such a strong perception would make the superpower users being sensed feel uncomfortable.
However, even the beautiful women in kimonos he saw numbered at least thirty or forty. Not a single man was seen.
"Places like the Inner World are truly blessed. Any random race is full of beauties," Wen Wen mused momentarily. From what he had seen, except for some non-human races, the other races generally had high attractiveness.
Just then, Wen Wen paused. He remembered the female superpower users he had met. Except for those who were hopeless cases, most had decent looks, likely due to the nurturing effects of their Supernatural Powers.
The proprietress gave a slight bow and began introducing the Mountain Wildflower House, detailing that this hot spring inn had a total of fifty rooms. At the door of each guestroom, a girl was waiting, ready to offer services at any time.
Of course, these were normal services. As a Hunters Association designated location, illegal services couldn’t be conducted.
Each room had its own hot spring pool. The water was drawn from the enormous Hot Spring Lake beside it.
The water in this hot spring pool could nourish the bodies of superpower users, relieve their bodily stress, and mend small internal injuries. For these Demon Hunters, it was an excellent place for recovery.
For those who found it not quite enough, there was always the option of immersing directly in the Hot Spring Lake, where the effect was more than twice as good as the indoor hot spring.
However, the water there was incredibly hot and quite deep—at least eighty to ninety degrees—hot enough to boil an egg. Due to its strong therapeutic properties, it came with an unusual stimulation that ordinary superpower users couldn’t endure for long.
Moreover, in the Hot Spring Lake, there were Spirit Fish that could nibble away at dead skin and impurities on the body’s surface, providing great benefits to the skin.
Finally, the proprietress said meaningfully, "The Hunter Association has already prepaid for all the expenses for you guests. You can enjoy complimentary room and board, hot spring baths, and massages from the maids at your door for a total of five days. Please make the most of it."
"Additionally, our establishment offers some special services... but they require an additional fee."
After saying this, the proprietress gave the group a coquettish wink and slowly exited the living room.
The men’s hearts were all a-flutter at the proprietress’ words, while the women found it a bit disgusting. Miao Xinyi pinched Lin Zheyuan’s arm hard, making him grimace and promise he absolutely wouldn’t partake in any special services.
After hearing the difference between the indoor hot springs and the outdoor Hot Spring Lake, the travelers all changed into their swimsuits and gathered again in the living room. Apart from Miao Xinyi, who was a normal person, everyone else seemed eager to try out the Hot Spring Lake.
After all, no one wanted to admit that they were just an ordinary Demon Hunter who couldn’t endure it.
Wen Wen hesitated in his room for a long while but finally emerged wearing a pair of specially made shorts.
Other male travelers could just wear a pair of shorts, but Wen Wen’s Containment Officer uniform had no shorts, not even underwear...
Fortunately, Wen Wen remembered that during an encounter with Maya Mi, he had once captured a special monster whose skin was suitable for making garments. He tossed the monster to Red Beard and didn’t give it another thought until now.
Finally reclaiming these shorts, he found them quite comfortable, much more than just being light as air.
The material was as delicate as a young girl’s skin, had self-cleaning and antibacterial properties, and never needed washing.
Heat-proof, cold-proof, corrosion-resistant, also with anti-kick and anti-slip features. Furthermore, its elasticity was superb; even if Wen Wen turned into a green Giant, it wouldn’t rip.
Most importantly, when Wen Wen picked up the item from Red Beard, the fellow subtly told him that these shorts had aphrodisiac properties...
Wen Wen pondered whether to spread this information. If the entire Hunter Association learned of the monster’s miraculous effects, the creature’s kind might face extinction in the real world...
Maybe one day the real world would counterattack the Inner World just to seize this resource for the shorts.
When Wen Wen came out, his eyes lit up at everyone’s swimwear appearance.
Li Natuo’s muscles were like bulging rocks, and wearing shorts, he seemed somewhat eye-catching.
The Wanderer, once decked out in swim attire, looked even more like a beggar.
The other men had unique characteristics too, but Wen Wen automatically skipped over them. As a normal man, he wasn’t interested in ogling other men.
The traveling group, alongside tour guide Sifumo, numbered thirty-seven: twenty-one men and sixteen women. Aside from two who went unnoticed by Wen Wen, the rest had quite alluring figures.
Especially Ye Haimo’s daughter, Ye Wen, who looked like she had walked straight out of an anime. Any Demon Hunter who associated with her would have a completed life, essentially.
As Wen Wen glanced around one by one, he naturally skipped over Tao Qingqing.
Evidently, she had lost her charm for Wen Wen as he had seen her too many times before.
Tao Qingqing was so irritated by Wen Wen’s indifferent glance that she gnashed her teeth in anger. However, she had no way to draw Wen Wen’s attention. Back when her bloodthirsty instincts took over, Wen Wen had taken advantage of her plenty...
The Three Cubs also came with a small life preserver, intending to enjoy the hot spring, but Wen Wen quickly grabbed it by the neck.
"You can go into the hot spring, but behave yourself and don’t wander around aimlessly."
The Three Cubs looked adorably at Wen Wen, the strange owner, once again saying something the snake couldn’t comprehend.
