Chapter 59: Chapter 59: The Teacher Has Always Been Self-Disciplined in His LifeXiao Ruoching just stared blankly at Su Bei. Staring at the man who had entangled her in threads of affection and hatred. This man is destroying my Dao Heart! But... would killing him truly set me free? In my previous life, after I finally killed the enemy who annihilated my clan, what did I feel? The satisfaction of vengeance exacted? But this is different from Su Bei... Su Bei waved his hand in front of Xiao Ruoching’s eyes, snapping her out of her daze. Xiao Ruoching regained her senses, gazing at her master. Her eyes were distant and hazy, yet at times, they shone with a clarity as bright as a flash of snow. Then, the corners of her lips curved slightly, revealing an expression that was either a smile or a hint of bitterness. The setting sun was magnificent, casting its glow upon Xiao Ruoching’s exquisite face. The step-shake ornaments in her hair shimmered with a gentle light. The city streets were lined with wintersweet flowers. Her jade-like fingers gently rested on her skirt, while the breeze softly caressed her plain long robe and swirled the wintersweet flowers on the trees. All of this left Su Bei utterly dazzled! In that instant, her breathtaking, city-toppling beauty outshone even the myriad wintersweet blossoms. A vision of youthful beauty, charming as a budding flower and radiant as a cherry. Xiao Ruoching’s beautiful eyes regarded Su Bei with a complex gaze. Su Bei cleared his throat softly, then casually plucked a candied haw from a stick a man was carrying on his shoulder and handed it to Xiao Ruoching. The hawthorn candy vendor stared at Su Bei, utterly bewildered. He was about to say, "You haven’t paid yet," but when he got a clear look at Su Bei’s handsome and elegant face, he was astonished and quickly stammered, "Ah! A gentleman as handsome as you... it’s on the house!" "..." Xiao Ruoching instinctively accepted the bright red candied haw. She looked at the sugar-coated fruit and then at Su Bei’s smiling eyes. She gently parted her crimson lips and took a small bite. It wasn’t very sweet, rather tart. ... "Disciple, do you know of the Red Pavilion?" Su Bei asked softly, his gaze distant as he looked at the luxurious building not far away, a subtle flicker of warmth in his eyes. Xiao Ruoching suppressed the turmoil in her heart and nodded. "The Red Pavilion. A notorious den of profligacy in the Twenty-One Provinces." Su Bei clasped his hands behind his back, raised an eyebrow, and said with a smug look, "HEH HEH HEH!" "You only know the first thing about it, not the second, third, or fourth!" "On the surface, the Red Pavilion is in the flesh trade. But behind the scenes, it’s actually backed by the renowned 985 Sect—the Star Moon Sect!" "However, this sect has its own ways. Although it has a terrible reputation in the Twenty-One Provinces and is known as a Demon Sect." "But all its disciples are female. This sect is somewhat different from the Cang Jing Sect." "While the Cang Jing Sect is also a Demon Sect, it has both male and female disciples, and their Cultivation Techniques primarily focus on dual cultivation for pleasure!" "Hmm! To put it simply, one is a Demon Sect that still cares a bit about its reputation and maintains some semblance of chastity. The other has thrown all scruples to the wind and indulges purely in carnal pleasures!" "..." Seeing the look of understanding on Xiao Ruoching’s face, Su Bei continued, "This Red Pavilion isn’t just a brothel. In essence, it’s a place for gathering and trading intelligence." "It’s getting late, and as it happens, we, master and disciple, don’t have a place to stay." "Hmm! Disguise yourself, and we’ll stay at the Red Pavilion tonight!" "..." Seeing Xiao Ruoching’s suspicious expression, Su Bei coughed, a little guiltily. Then, with a serious and stern face, he declared, "As your master, I have always conducted myself with utmost propriety!" "How could it be what you’re thinking?" "I genuinely intend to go there merely to gather some information, with no other thoughts in mind." "After all, so many Sword Sect Disciples have gone missing in Mo City. How could a vast intelligence network like the Red Pavilion be unaware?" "..." Xiao Ruoching simply said, "Oh," then gathered her long hair and tied it up with a ribbon. In an unnoticed corner, Su Bei furrowed his brows, watching Xiao Ruoching bustling about and fussing for a good while. Looking at that bulging front, checking it from the left and then the right, he was still somewhat dissatisfied. He thought for a moment, then took out a chest-binding cloth from his storage ring and handed it to her. "Disciple, go wrap this around yourself!" "Mm! Make it tight!" "What man has chest muscles *this* developed?" "Ah?! Your master won’t look. You don’t have to turn your back. See? Your master is covering his eyes." "..." Xiao Ruoching looked at Su Bei with a cold sneer, noticing the wide gaps between the fingers covering his eyes. Seeing his disciple’s blatant distrust, Su Bei pouted involuntarily. He turned around, somewhat reluctantly. After some more fussing, two handsome young gentlemen, each holding a Folding Fan, strutted confidently into the brightly lit, bustling entrance of the Red Pavilion, surrounded by a bevy of chattering women! Just as Su Bei and Xiao Ruoching stepped into the Red Pavilion, a white-haired woman, draped in a Crane Cloak and exuding an icy aura, also arrived at the entrance. She looked up, her eyes filled with disgust as she gazed at the antique-styled, extremely luxurious building. Then, taking a deep breath, she extended a slender, beautiful leg hidden beneath her robe, preparing to step inside. The Turtle Man at the door, who was beaming as he greeted guests, was aghast at the sight. What woman would brazenly stroll into a brothel? He hurriedly rushed in front of the woman and said, "Immortal, this place isn’t for the likes of you!" "If you’re looking for lodging... turn around and go next door! That’s Mo City’s five-star grand hotel!" "..." Dan Wulan’s eyes narrowed as she looked at the man before her. "Why not?" she asked, her voice cold. "It’s not as if I won’t pay." Although the Turtle Man had some cultivation, how could he possibly withstand Dan Wulan, who was already at the Refining Void Realm? An icy chill instantly coursed through his body. His legs trembled uncontrollably, and he felt weak all over. Nevertheless, he forced himself to brave it out and said, "Im... Immortal, this is a brothel... not a place an Immortal like yourself should set foot in!" "Besides... if the Immortal has other needs, you can enter through the small door at the back of the Red Pavilion!" "Our Red Pavilion’s other... services are handled over there..." "..." Dan Wulan frowned. Not wanting to bother with the man any longer, she turned and left the Red Pavilion. The Turtle Man watched her retreating figure, wiped the cold sweat from his brow, and heaved a sigh of relief. A short while later, a handsome, white-haired young "gentleman" wearing a cloak that did little to conceal a rather developed chest, walked over and swaggered into the Red Pavilion. 「Red Pavilion.」 Dim lights flickered in the top-floor loft. Inside the loft, a captivating fragrance wafted through the air, so refreshing and alluring that a mere whiff could send one’s imagination soaring, evoking an indescribable feeling of comfort. At the back of the loft, there was a large pool inlaid with white jade, surrounded by pebbles that shimmered with a faint glow. A hazy light reflected on the water, where countless petals floated, emitting a delicate, enchanting perfume. Ripples gently spread across the pool’s surface, and layers of mist curled upwards. Through the haze, the stunning figure of a peerless beauty could be faintly seen soaking in the water. The woman’s fragrant shoulders were partly exposed, her skin as smooth and tender as creamy jade. Her abundant raven hair, wet and glistening, clung tightly to her Da Bai mounds, faintly visible. Her slender, jade-like hands gently came together, scooping up floating petals from the pool. Her enticing red lips blew softly on the water cupped in her hands. Then, she gently tossed the petals into the air. They splashed back into the water along with droplets, creating a delightful, silvery tinkle. Suddenly, a woman dressed as a maidservant entered, curtsied gracefully, and said, "Sect Master! The information you requested has been found." "..."
