The Dragon Amulet

Shen Nu asking about this room jolted the woman back into action, she quickly walked behind the counter and asked" It was a room for two weeks correct? Are you going to be fighting in the upcoming tournament? "

A faint smile appeared on Shen Nu's face and he said" Yes, I will be taking part in the Shen Clan, qualification tournament tomorrow, I'm confident that my master's teachings will be more than enough to win it. Oh I forgot to mention that it is a room for two please, my master shall be staying with me."

Confused the woman looked and said" Will your .master be joining us later? The rooms for two only come with one bed, is that ok with you?"

Shen nu responded by summoning Lily who is currently residing within his sea of consciousness (as he is an advanced practitioner in the spirit path, he is able to summon her for long periods of time, while she is in the normal world she is given a body), at the sight of beautiful blonde woman appearing in front of her out of thin air, the innkeeper looked at Shen Nu with a look mixed with fear, respect and a little bit of something he could not detect.

Shen Nu turned to Lily and asked" The rooms for two in this Inn only have one bed, is that okay with you master?"

Lily's face instantly lit up a little as a small amount of blush appeared on her cheeks, she then looked at Shen Nu who was looking at her with a very calm expression on his face. It was if the question didn't faze him, seeing this Lily smiled and said"I don't know husband, should we share a room? Would our nightly activities keep the other guests awake?"

Shen Nu laughed at Lily's question but to her surprise he responded with" We will take the room then, you need my name for the records right? The name is Shen Nu, I used to work here."

The Innkeeper froze and began to tear up a little, she turned to Shen Nu and struck him in the face, she then aggressively said" You are a bastard, my father died and then 6 months later, the person I saw as my best friend vanished overnight."

As she continued to cry, Shen Nu having been through something similar with Lily, jumped over the counter and pulled the innkeeper into a hug and said" I'm sorry that I left you here alone however I was trapped in an old ruin for the entirety of the year and a half. Hey, come on now, there is no need for tears, I'm safe and you are still running the Inn."

Shen Nu pushed the Woman's silky brown hair from out of the way of her eye's and wiped them said" Come on now Jade, we have reunited, this is a time of celebration, not tears. I need to introduce you to my wife and master, Lily."

Lily smiled at Jade and said" Give my husband the key, he can wait for me in the room. I think we need to talk, just us girls."

Dumbfounded, Shen Nu was forced upstairs by Lily, almost an hour later, Lily came up stairs and said" So what nightly activities are we going to do?"

Shen Nu got up off of the cheap bed and picked Lily up and threw her on the bed, he knew she was bluffing, she made it clear that they wouldn't progress past kissing until he remembered her real name. He pulled the duvet over them both and put his hands around her waist and fell asleep holding her.
