Xia Liang turned sideways and bent down, aligning her gaze with Erald Sparrow: "Can you co with us, just as a favor?"
"…Sigh, you know my situation, don't you?"
Erald Sparrow could only let out a sigh, lowering her voice to make sure Lin Xiaolu wasn't paying attention to their conversation, then looked at Xia Liang sowhat helplessly: "Are you seriously considering making go with you guys?"
"What else?"
Xia Liang knew what Erald Sparrow was worried about, so she also lowered her voice: "Although I know you, junior, have lived many years with a different gender and might have grown accustod to that identity, by now you can only go to the won's bath, right?"
"Huh?" Erald Sparrow looked at Xia Liang with so astonishnt.
"Hmm?" Xia Liang responded with the sa puzzled tone.
"All this talk… have you misunderstood sothing?" Erald Sparrow slightly furrowed her brow.
"Misunderstood? But when I arrived, I saw male guests in the wetland, so the hot springs here must have separate baths, right?"
Xia Liang blinked: "As long as you, junior, decide to go to the hot springs, you'll definitely have to go to the won's bath, and you'll encounter other girls, right? So, whether you go alone or with us, there shouldn't be a difference, right?"
Erald Sparrow hesitated: "Well… although what you're saying seems to make so sense, what I want to say is…"
—"What? What hot springs?"
However, before she could finish, Lin Xiaolu's voice joined in from not far away, interrupting their conversation. She flipped over from atop the clouds, scrambled up on her feet, and ran over from a distance:
"Are you guys planning to go to the hot springs? Count in!"
"…We were just discussing what effects the Magic Hot Springs might have."
Erald Sparrow paused for a second, seeing that Lin Xiaolu appeared normal, and likely didn't hear anything extra, then smoothly replied: "If you want, you can go with them later."
"Great, let's go together."
Lin Xiaolu nodded: "So we are waiting for Bo Xue to co back?"
Erald Sparrow drooped her eyelids: "No, I wasn't talking about 'us,' I ant 'you guys'…"
"Eh? Are you... Long Dan not going?"
Lin Xiaolu imdiately widened her eyes: "Why not?"
"Because I have things to do." Erald Sparrow looked away.
"What kind of things?" Lin Xiaolu persisted.
"I brought a lot of docunts, so of which are needed tomorrow."
"Then you can wash up and co back to deal with them."
Lin Xiaolu was relentless: "Or you can teach how to do it, and after we co back, I'll help you sort them out."
"It's not a child's job." Erald Sparrow closed her eyes.
"I'm not a child anymore." Lin Xiaolu was displeased.
At this point, Xia Liang re-entered the conversation, her two hands resting on Erald Sparrow's shoulders from behind: "Bai i is right, we're all here anyway, going to the hot springs together is a way to build our team spirit."
"I think this kind of thing has nothing to do with team spirit." Erald Sparrow stood her ground.
"Then you can still co, right?"
Lin Xiaolu was equally unwilling to let go: "Co with us!"
"No." Erald Sparrow shook her head.
"Co on." Xia Liang nudged Erald Sparrow's shoulders gently.
"No."
"Co on!"
"No."
"Co."
"No."
Their argunt gradually turned into a contest of endurance with only a few words being exchanged, more about who would give in first rather than persuasion. Unfortunately, from the mont Xia Liang involved Lin Xiaolu, the outco of the contest was predetermined. Few fathers can remain immovable in the face of their daughter's coquettish requests.
Thirty minutes later, Erald Sparrow, wrapped in a towel, was sitting in the hot spring waters, with only her head above the surface. Feeling the temperature of the surrounding water, she leaned back against the edge of the bath and let out a long sigh.
Beside her, Lin Xiaolu, Xia Liang, and Bai Jingxuan were all gathered together, soaking side by side in the hot spring waters. Luckily or unluckily, at this mont, there were only a few of them in the won's hot springs.
The hot springs of the Colorful Cloud Wetland are divided into male, female, and Fairy sections, each with indoor and outdoor areas. The indoor area includes changing rooms, showers, saunas, massage rooms, and so smaller hot spring pools. The outdoor area is a massive, open-air Magic Hot Spring set among the grass like a small lake.
Here, Magic Techniques were set up to repel mosquitoes and birds, and a mist enveloped the pools while other Techniques were in place to block passage, ensuring no one could enter from outside the bathing area to prevent travelers from "accidentally taking the wrong bath."
Once in the bathing area, after a simple rinse, everyone entered the hot springs in their transford states. After feeling a faint trace of Magic Power seeping into the spring water, they all reverted back to their original forms.
Of course, Erald Sparrow remained Erald Sparrow.
"Ah, the Magic Hot Spring really lives up to its reputation. This tingling sensation... wow, it's like the water itself is massaging you."
Xia Liang floated in the water with a blissful smile, as if she was about to lt away: "This is amazing, I feel like a piece of ice cream soaking in the water, about to blend with the hot spring."
"Is this thing really that comfortable?"
Lin Xiaolu, emulating Erald Sparrow, leaned against the edge of the pool, but with a rather strange expression: "I can indeed feel that tingling sensation... but it's not comfortable at all? Quite the opposite, it's kind of botherso."
