Leaving the inn, Li Jing did not haste towards Yuanlaixuan.
The inn was just opposite Yuanlaixuan, to go straightforwardly would be too obvious.
His current appearance is essentially eye-catching.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Li Jing first strolled around the nearby streets and conveniently found a secluded place to change his outfit to a Taoist robe.
When in Ro, do as the Romans do, right?
After all, in a place where everyone is a Taoist, it should be easier to get things done as one, right?
Li Jing had noticed this before.
Among the guests of Yuanlaixuan, there were not only those Taoists who claid to be pure-hearted and despised wrongdoing, but more often, they were referred to as "Taoist brothers".
It makes sense when you think about it.
Yuanlaixuan, such a massive brothel, is located in Lingyan City, which is full of Taoists.
If all the Taoists were to maintain their purity and not patronize, where would Yuanlaixuan’s inco co from?
With a confident stride, Li Jing entered Yuanlaixuan.
As soon as he stepped inside, countless eyes fell upon him.
There was no helping it.
This place is essentially a den of courtesans, and given Li Jing’s devastatingly handso appearance, it was hard for the gentlen in the house to not pay attention.
As for why the ladies were looking at him, it was naturally because he was attractive.
Amidst the gazes of the crowd, Li Jing paused and looked around.
The first floor of Yuanlaixuan was a substantial hall.
Like typical brothels, the first floor primarily served as a dining hall.
At first glance.
There were at least a hundred tables in the hall on the first floor.
In the middle was a massive stage where courtesans were dancing and playing music.
This was quite the spectacle.
Looking at the guests.
Almost every table in the hall was occupied, with hardly any empty ones visible.
This level of thriving business was impressive to say the least.
However, Li Jing noticed that not every table had beautiful won from Yuanlaixuan accompanying custors for drinks. So people seed to treat this place rely as a dining establishnt.
This phenonon was not hard to understand.
After all, a brothel was not just about carnal pleasures; there were also various performances by the courtesans.
Self-control didn’t an not watching!
As a certain gentleman put it.
He simply liked watching beauties.
Nothing more, just for the pleasure of the eyes and mind.
In fact.
At present, several tables at Yuanlaixuan were occupied by "groups of won".
From their appearance, they didn’t appear to be ladies of the night.
Presumably, they were here for the al and to watch the beautiful performances.
Noticed all this, Li Jing began to understand why Yuanlaixuan could be such a grand brothel.
Their "business" was not limited to carnal services.
They catered to all tastes.
Such a business model was indeed sothing.
Li Jing also noticed that although there were many courtesans accompanying guests for drinks in the first floor hall, while chatter and laughter were heard all around, no one was being inappropriate in public.
It seed that Yuanlaixuan had a rule not allowing patrons to get handsy on the first floor.
With a little speculation.
Li Jing roughly understood.
This rule was probably to avoid upsetting those custors who were here just to eat and not to indulge in pleasure.
While observing the scene in the hall, a young lad of about twelve or thirteen years old hurriedly ca forward to greet him.
"Noble sister, you’re here for a al, right? Please, follow ," he said.
On hearing his words, Li Jing nodded and let the lad lead him to an empty table.
Just as he was about to ask what they served here, the lad pulled out a thick book from his storage space and handed it over.
"Sister, here’s the nu."
Li Jing pause for a second on seeing this.
nus were rarely seen in dining places in the Immortal Realm.
Even if they did exist, they were usually displayed on a board in the hall on the first floor.
Most of the dining places in the Immortal Realm, like restaurants and brothels, rely on the mory of waiters, as well as the personal preference and familiarity of the custors with the nu.
Yuanlaixuan actually had a nu?
This must be copied from Cangming Entertainnt City!
Upon opening the nu, Li Jing imdiately confird the copied idea.
Even on Yuanlaixuan’s nu, there are "high-definition" illustrations.
This couldn’t possibly be an idea soone from the Immortal Realm could co up with.
Truthfully.
Li Jing didn’t expect that her entertainnt city, which has not been open for long, already had an influence that reached beyond the Cangming realm.
After casually ordering a few snacks, Li Jing returned the nu and handed over a top-grade Immortal Crystal to the waiter, smiling as she asked.
"Who is your top perforr here?"
Of course, the waiter was not actually only twelve or thirteen years old. He simply maintained this young appearance for "work". In reality, he was an old hand at Yuanlaixuan.
He had seen many who tipped him.
But one who handed out Top grade Immortal Crystals as tips, this was a first.
It’s not that there were no generous custors in Yuanlaixuan, but usually only the girls had the chance to receive such prestigious tips. The male servants here can only barely make a living.
Looking at the top-grade Immortal Crystal in his hand, the waiter’s eagerness to Li Jing suddenly rose a few levels, he promptly replied.
"You must not know this, pretty lady, we don’t just have one top perforr, but four. They are Ruhua, Ruyue, Ruyu, and Rubing. All four are of stunning beauty, possess the cultivation level of eleventh realm and are proficient in the six arts of music and dance."
After hearing the waiter’s words, Li Jing fell silent.
She didn’t know why.
She had a strong impulse to call for Ruhua.
This na, in essence, was not flawed.
It’s just that as a person who had crossed over to this world, the word "Ruhua" sounded very familiar.
In spite of suppressing the impulse in her heart, Li Jing spoke.
"Call Rubing here."
¿¿¿
The waiter.
He thought that Li Jing was here for the first ti, rely curious enough to ask a question; who would’ve thought she actually wanted to request a top perforr!
Asking for a top perforr at first et, not only was it against the rules, but the key is.
She herself was a woman....
About to play so tofu ga!?
The experienced waiter evaluated Li Jing’s curvaceous figure several tis and couldn’t help but swallow a gulp of saliva.
Li Jing is a woman.
Of course, she could tell at a glance what the waiter was thinking.
But at this mont, she could only pretend not to see it.
"What are you dawdling for? Are you afraid I won’t pay?"
"No, no!"
The waiter waved his hands in hurry, speaking.
"Miss, our top perforrs only perform but do not solicit, and they only ’operate’ at night."
He quickly added.
"If you are interested in those four, you can co over at night. They will all perform for custors in the evening. If a custor takes a fancy to any of them, they can go up to the room with them for a cosy chat after the performance."
Li Jing listened to the waiter’s explanation, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
They sell arts but not their bodies.
That’s not a problem.
Whatever they choose to sell, the experienced all understand.
Only operating at night can be understood as well.
But the treatnt of just having a cosy chat after going up the room, that’s a bit...
Upon being privileged guests, just this treatnt?
This "marketing strategy" is a bit outrageous.
However, it seems to have a good market at Yuanlaixuan.
After all, if it wasn’t liked, Yuanlaixuan wouldn’t let the four top perforrs continue this way.
Shaking her head secretly, Li Jing said.
"Even so, call the madam for ."
"Uh, this..."
The waiter was put off.
If it were a big spender here, he wouldn’t hesitate at all.
The problem is that Li Jing is a woman, a woman who wants the top perforr.
The madam is currently entertaining other VIPs.
I am guessing she won’t co if she knows the details, she might even scold him.
Although Yuanlaixuan has a wide range of services, it is essentially a brothel.
A wealthy woman is nowhere as important as a wealthy man, right?
Not to ntion she wants the top perforr out of turn.
If this rule is broken, the reputation of Yuanlaixuan’s head girl is lost.
As the servant hesitated, Li Jing could guess what he was thinking.
Her status is indeed sowhat inconvenient here.
Even if she stated her preference for other girls, she wouldn’t be able to step into Yuanlaixuan, the most extravagant place.
Thinking that even if she convinces the servant to fetch soone, they might not necessarily treat her as a "valued guest" and serve her first, Li Jing decided to use a more-brutish approach.
She restrained her Imperial Dignity aura from "accidentally leaking," and her red lips slightly parted.
"Madam, co and see imdiately."
In an instant.
The ntal voice of a late-stage peak Venerable of Thirteen Realms resonated throughout Yuanlaixuan, sending the previously bustling first-floor hall into silence.
A Venerable, it’s not soone you can just casually et.
Apart from Zhong Shen Zhou, only so top-level powers in the Four Realm of Immortals could have a resident Venerable.
A late-stage peak Venerable.
It is even rarer in the Four Realm of Immortals.
Because no ordinary people would have the chance to et anyone who had reached this level as they would usually spend years in seclusion, seeking to advance further.
At this mont, one has erged in Yuanlaixuan, how could one not be shocked?
You should know.
The highest cultivation level in Yuanlaixuan at this mont is only Eleven realms.
Of course.
This is just on the surface.
There are powerful beings hidden in Yuanlaixuan, that goes without saying.
Not to ntion its connection to the one who seek dominance, such a big brothel surely needs soone to "maintain the overall situation," right?
Moreover, Fang Donghe and a group of strong people from Star God Temple are hiding here, but they are all upstairs and haven’t co out.
Setting all these aside.
When Li Jing spoke, the madam was instantly startled.
It was very quick.
Probably just a few seconds.
A figure like a ghost appeared from upstairs, whooshing to the table.
At the first glance of Li Jing, the madam was first stunned by her breathtaking beauty, then quickly turned to look at the astonished young servant next to the table, and apologized with a smile.
"This Immortal... Venerable, is there anything in my shop that has displeased you?"
"Not for now."
Li Jing smiled faintly, glanced at the eyes around her that were focused on her, and rose to her feet.
"There are too many people down here, arrange a room for upstairs."
Hearing that Li Jing was not dissatisfied with anything, the madam breathed a sigh of relief, and then promptly replied.
"Sure, please follow to Tian Character No.1 room on the third floor."
Regularly speaking.
Only custors who have called for a girl and paid enough can go above the second floor of Yuanlaixuan.
But Li Jing is different.
She is a late-stage peak Venerable of the Thirteen Realms.
No matter how strong the background of Yuanlaixuan is, they can’t afford to offend her.
Whatever she says, goes.
This, is the power of might.
After answering Li Jing, the madam signaled the servant next to her to prepare more hands.
The servant understood and quickly walked away.
The madam imdiately twisted her waist and prepared to lead the way for Li Jing.
Before she could take a step, Li Jing’s voice echoed softly.
"If you have other things to handle, go ahead and deal with them. Finish them quickly as I want you to accompany later."
???
The madam turned around in confusion.
For a mont, she thought she had heard wrongly.
Li Jing wants her...
To accompany her?
What’s going on?
She had seen many coming to the brothel for girls.
However, this was the first ti soone specifically requested her.
What’s even more astounding is...
Li Jing is a woman who is a late-stage peak Venerable...
The madam was unable to comprehend all this at once.
Not only the madam, but all the custors and the girls of Yuanlaixuan who were watching Li Jing were stunned as well.
Requesting for the madam, such an incident is indeed rare to see!
Li Jing, however, didn’t care for all that and took out a thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals, flinging them onto the table before standing up to speak.
"I’ll be waiting for you upstairs."
The madam, all the girls from Yuanlaixuan, and the custors were once again shocked.
Those who were extravagant with their money in Yuanlaixuan were plentiful.
But no one had ever nonchalantly tossed out a thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals.
Just for a girl, was there really a need for such a grand sum?
Usually, a couple of mid-grade Immortal Crystals would be more than enough for an ordinary girl.
If she was of a higher class, it would only cost about ten top-grade Immortal Crystals for a whole night or whole day.
Don’t think that the girls in Yuanlaixuan were cheap.
Rember this.
Before eting Li Jing, soone like the star-picker who welcod the immortals had only two thousand lower-grade Immortal Crystals to his na.
Even then, he had to spend his entire fortune to rely touch the hand of a maiden in Yuanlaixuan.
Watching Li Jing, a woman, ascended the staircase with a careless stride, the madam felt a mixture of astonishnt and weakness in her knees.
The look in her eyes...
It stirred emotions in her heart.
Looking at all the top-grade Immortal Crystals piled on the table, the madam gritted her teeth and swiftly pocketed them all before hastily following Li Jing upstairs.
When they saw the madam really leaving with Li Jing, everyone’s eyes almost fell out.
You see, even though they were all cultivators, the madam of Yuanlaixuan was an incredibly beautiful landowner. Her attractiveness and manners weren’t any worse than the highest-rated girls from Yuanlaixuan.
A great number of clients had once fancied her.
But she wasn’t for sale.
And nobody dared to take any improper liberties with her.
How could she alone sustain such a grand establishnt as Yuanlaixuan if she was only at the Eleventh Realm?
Everyone knew she had a powerful person backing her.
More than likely, she was that person’s forbidden love.
Now it seed that she was not anyone’s forbidden love, nor was she not for sale.
It’s just that this price tag was not sothing everyone could afford.
The girls in Yuanlaixuan looked quite upset as they saw the madam "going to the front lines" herself, feeling extrely jealous.
If it weren’t for the fact that Li Jing’s cultivation level was terrifyingly high and they were afraid of angering her, they really wanted to rush forward and tell her "We can go".
A thousand high-grade Immortal Crystals!
Most of the girls in the room wouldn’t make that much even if they worked for a year.
Being able to earn that much in one go, who wouldn’t want to?
This was only the "appetizer".
If they could satisfy Li Jing later upstairs, who knows how much more they could earn.
Otherwise, why would the Madam personally get involved?
After thinking about it, the other party was also a woman. The most they could do was to get a little touchy-feely.
Even if there were so peculiar acts involved, they wouldn’t be as tiring as serving the n.
...
Before long,
Li Jing arrived on the third floor, where she stopped and looked at the madam who had been following her like a little wife the whole ti.
The madam froze when she t Li Jing’s gaze. She forced down her wildly beating heart and reached out to clasp the latter’s arm. She pointed in the direction of the left.
"Venerable one, the Tian Character No.1 room is over there."
Li Jing nodded and headed towards the left. Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the staircase leading to the fourth floor.
"If the Tian Character rooms are on the third floor, what are the upper floors for?"
"The floors above the fourth are strictly for the girls to rest and have no special uses."
The madam replied with a fragrant sigh.
She didn’t know why, but the closer she got to Li Jing, the weaker her legs felt, especially now that she was holding onto her arm.
This sensation was as though she was clutching onto an overwhelmingly dominant man, and she could feel a potent masculine aura that was strong enough to stimulate the senses.
Having listened to the madam, Li Jing slightly nodded and didn’t ask any further questions.
At the mont, through her Primordial Spirit, she could sense that Fang Donghe and hundreds of others from Star God Temple were scattered across the fifth and sixth floors of Yuanlaixuan.
If she wanted to go up and check, it wouldn’t work.
Especially after the madam stated that the floors above the fourth were dedicated for the girls to rest and had no other uses. Without a proper reason to go up, it could raise suspicion.
