There was a place for sinful delights in Qian Nation, called the Heavenly Fragrance Inn.
At this mont, inside one of the inn’s boudoirs, a lady dressed in a bright red dress was grooming herself in front of a mirror, her movents ever so graceful. She was the face of the Heavenly Fragrance Inn, and people called her the Red Lady.
The Red Lady had a maid beside her, who was helping her comb her hair.
“Any news lately?”
“Lady Hui, Sect Leader, and the others are scheduled to arrive at the Capital City today. On top of that, the Ashura Sect and a bunch of unknown demonic cultivators have also set their sights on that place. When the ti cos, I don’t think we can avoid a big battle.”
“I’ve never expected this quest to be a bed of roses anyway. That place is definitely the Demonic Vanquishnt Lake as described in the ancient records. Legend has it that there is a Demonic Sage Heart hidden within the lake. This kind of story would surely draw much attention.”
“Besides that, I also have so other news…”
The maid stuttered to a stop at the end of her sentence.
“What are you stuttering for? Say it.”
“Chu Kuangren has arrived at the Qian Nation.”
The whole room fell silent once she said that. The Red Lady who was drawing her eyebrows with one hand then jolted to a stop, and her eyebrow pencil dropped onto the floor.
“Could you repeat that? Say who?”
“Chu Kuangren.”
“Godd*mn it, why has this mass murderer co to the Qian Nation?!” The Red Lady lost her cool as terror could be seen from her eyes.
She may not have t Chu Kuangren before, but for demonic orthodoxies, the re sound of this man’s na would send cold shivers trickling down their spine!
The souls of the hundred thousand demonic cultivators at the Weeping Demon Mountain had not even co to rest yet!
“Well, the Qian Nation is a satellite state of the Black Heaven Sect, so it does not surprise that they’ve sent one of their own here,” the maid responded wearily.
“They have so many people to send, yet why choose this mass murderer of all people? We’re going to have a huge problem now.”
The Red Lady gritted her teeth in frustration. She had clearly lost any mood to resu her makeup.
Seeing the Red Lady’s reaction, the maid could only let out a helpless sigh.
Why did they send Chu Kuangren here?
This scene here was actually the best explanation for that. It was because of the devastating effect that Chu Kuangren could bring to these demonic cultivators. To them, even Honorables were not as intimidating as he was.
It was not just the Red Lady, but the various groups of demonic cultivators who were spread across different areas in the Qian Nation had all heard about Chu Kuangren’s arrival too.
Upon receiving the news, the majority of demonic cultivators were almost frightened to death. Like turtles, all of them hid into their shells, not daring to cause any more trouble.
The scouts that Qian Nation had sent to investigate the tracks of demonic cultivators noticed this as well, and they were all extrely confused.
Nobody had any idea why the demonic cultivators had all gone into hiding. It was a stark contrast compared to before, where they would wreak havoc every two to three days.
How are they supposed to carry on the investigation then?
…
“Prince, so this is where you wanted to bring to?”
Chu Kuangren stared at the Heavenly Fragrance Inn in front of him, and then at the lovely young ladies on the top floor, the edge of his mouth twitching inadvertently.
Beside them, Lan Yu gave the Second Prince a stare so cold that it made him shudder and gave him goosebumps.
The Second Prince put on a bold face and explained, “Brother Chu, I hope you don’t misunderstand my intentions. The Heavenly Fragrance Inn may be a brothel, but there are still plenty of talented people here too. Their prima donna, the Red Lady, is the Qin Nation’s renowned guqin player herself.”
“Is that so?” Chu Kuangren was a little doubtful.
“Absolutely.”
The Second Prince then led Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu into the Heavenly Fragrance Inn. Once they entered the inn, they imdiately attracted attention from many of the people inside.
The ladies were especially attracted to Chu Kuangren as they watched him with glittery eyes.
“What a handso young man.”
“I’ve been here for so long, but I’ve never t a guy quite like him before. If I can just have it with him once, I can die happy without any regrets.”
So ladies could not repress their urges as they sward towards Chu Kuangren. They even reached out their hands to tease him.
However, Lan Yu took a step forward and stopped the ladies, flashing them a cold stare.
Terrified by her imposing manner, none of the ladies then dared to proceed further.
“Back off. Cheap won like you all are better off finding soone else. Now hurry up and get the Red Lady here. Ask her to play a couple of tunes for my friend here.”
The Second Prince waved one arm and shooed the crowd off.
Just then, a middle-aged lady who still retained her youthfulness and gracefulness walked up to the Second Prince. She smiled at him and said, “I wonder what brings you here, my dear Second Prince? And also this friend of yours here. Dear oh dear, this… this…”
The middle-aged lady fixed her gaze on Chu Kuangren and stuttered like cats had gotten her tongue. She went closer and gave him a closer look. “This… is this not a god-man who has transcended down the human realm?”
“My friend here could very well be a god-man from the heavens. Quick, fetch us the Red Lady,” the Second Prince urged impatiently.
“Very well. Please wait for a mont at the lounge.”
…
“Ugh, it’s this Second Prince again. This is already his third ti this month seeing . Why is he back here again?” the Red Lady complained disgruntledly.
“Oh well, can’t bla him for having that many soulstones, right? My dear Mada, just accommodate him one more ti, alright? Besides, this ti, the Second Prince has brought another man here. That man has what we call the angelic looks.”
“That was what you said the last ti too.”
“Ah, that man last ti is nothing but a pile of dump if you compare him with this one. If I was a couple of decades younger, I wouldn’t mind paying to have a go at this man even,” the middle-aged lady said with a fully-infatuated look.
“You’re not exaggerating this, are you?”
The Red Lady pushed open the lounge door slowly.
The mont she had a clear look at who was inside, her facial expression went blank. She quietly shut the door and turned around, readying herself to leave.
“Eh, my dear Mada, what is wrong with you?”
“Lady Hua, please help notify the Second Prince that I’m not feeling well today, so I won’t be able to be at their service.”
“Not feeling well? I thought you were doing just fine earlier. By the way, why has your face turned so pale all of a sudden?”
Lady Hua questioned back in confusion.
The Red Lady wanted to cry so badly but no tears ca out. She was like this because she was petrified!
Soone with incredibly good looks, and was brought in by the Second Prince… She should have figured out earlier that this man was none other than Chu Kuangren himself!!
She could not believe that Chu Kuangren had found her. Oh gosh, if her identity were to be exposed, even if she had ten lives, it still would not be enough for her to survive this!
“Red Lady, since you’re already here, why don’t you co in and join us? You shan’t let my friend here wait too long.” The Second Prince walked outside and questioned her in discontentnt.
“Second Prince, I’m not feeling too well today, can I…”
“No!”
The Second Prince interrupted the Red Lady before she could even finish her sentence. He warned her in a low voice, “My friend here has an esteed status. You must serve him well here today. Otherwise, don’t even hope that you or the Heavenly Fragrance Inn can get away with this.”
“Then… alright then.”
The Red Lady nodded. Deep down, she had already been cursing the Second Prince since a long while ago. n were just trash; one minute they would call you darling and the next minute they would push you to another man like it was nothing.
She walked into the lounge and bowed at Chu Kuangren. She then took out a guqin and started to play so tunes for the guests.
The sweet lody reverberated in the room, making everyone there feel soothed and calm. It was truly undeniable that the Red Lady’s talent in guqin was quite outstanding.
The Red Lady slowly relaxed. She felt that she had been overly anxious earlier. This Chu Kuangren had never seen her before, so how could he possibly know her true identity? She figured that she should focus on playing the guqin nicely instead.
From ti to ti, she would look up and observe Chu Kuangren. She realized that this mass murderer, who was so notorious amongst demonic orthodoxies, was indeed incredibly good-looking.
The Red Lady had seen many people from all walks of life, but no matter in terms of looks or temperant, nobody could co close to this Chu Kuangren in front of her.
Just then, the Red Lady noticed that Chu Kuangren flashed her a mischievous grin which sparked a sense of terror in her for absolutely no reason at all.
With a loud zing, the guqin string broke, and the lodious tune was cut off abruptly.
