Chapter 1141: Zhang Xuan Visits a Brothel (Part 2)

The girl wore a light blue dress that perfectly outlined her exquisite figure. A pale yellow ribbon hung at her waist, accentuating the curves of her chest and the arch of her backside. From a distance, she looked like a seductive sprite ready to pounce at any moment, captivating the soul.

It was none other than Hu Yaoyao, the president of the Monster Club at the Master Teacher Academy.

After Zhang Xuan became the academy head, the Monster Club disbanded, and she, as its former president, legitimately joined the Xuanxuan Club, becoming one of its most powerful cultivators.

"Come with me? Sure!"

Seeing it was her, Zhang Xuan nodded.

Hu Yaoyao specialized in the Ethereal Dance at the Master Teacher Academy and was a direct disciple of Elder Wei Ranxue. Since they were heading to the Ethereal Dance Master Guild, bringing her along was fine.

"We want to go too..."

Just as he agreed and was about to move forward, another voice sounded. Turning around, he saw Yu Fei'er and Luo Qiqi had somehow followed.

Seeing the longing in their eyes, Zhang Xuan shook his head and dissuaded them: "You two shouldn't go. This place isn't suitable."

"Not suitable? Why can Hu Yaoyao go but we can't?"

Yu Fei'er raised an eyebrow.

She was always fiery-tempered. If he had refused everyone, that would be one thing, but why take Hu Yaoyao and not them?

Was Hu Yaoyao special?

Luo Qiqi didn't speak but had the same question.

"I'm going to Saichun Tower... that is, a brothel! It's not appropriate for young ladies like you." Zhang Xuan explained.

"A brothel?"

"Taking Hu Yaoyao to a brothel?"

Exchanging glances, Yu Fei'er and Luo Qiqi simultaneously raised their hands to block him: "No, absolutely not!"

"Alright, stop messing around. I have important business to attend to!"

Zhang Xuan looked displeased.

He had always treated these two well, patiently guiding them whenever they had problems. Why were they acting stubborn now?

Seeing his anger, Yu Fei'er bit her lip: "Master Zhang, you are a master teacher. How can you go to such a place? If you really... want to go, I can help you..."

"Help me!"

Zhang Xuan shook his head.

Help me? How?

Could you help me obtain the Ethereal Dance Master badge or the Seven-Star Master Teacher badge?

You don't know anything and yet you offer to help. How naive!

Shaking his head, he said: "Alright, your abilities are limited. You can't help me..."

"Limited abilities? Where am I limited? Mine are clearly big, okay?"

Yu Fei'er gritted her teeth and thrust out her chest.

Was he implying her figure wasn't as good as Hu Yaoyao's?

Wasn't it just a bit bigger?

Hers wasn't bad either!

Besides... limited abilities... how did he know her abilities were limited?

Just as she was fuming, the young man's voice continued.

"Saichun Tower is a branch of the Ethereal Dance Master Guild. I want to take the assessment for Seven-Star Ethereal Dance Master to prepare for applying for the Seven-Star Master Teacher badge. Hu Yaoyao specializes in the Ethereal Dance profession and can advise me. You specialize in formations, right? How can you help?"

Zhang Xuan was speechless.

You've never even been exposed to the Ethereal Dance profession, yet you say you can help. How naive.

"Ethereal Dance Master Guild... branch? Assessing for Seven-Star Ethereal Dance Master?"

Yu Fei'er's mouth twitched, and she stood frozen, her face flushing bright red.

Clearly, even as a princess, she was unaware of this.

She had thought he was up to something else and had completely misunderstood... Luckily, he hadn't caught on, or she would have been too embarrassed to show her face.

"Why is the Ethereal Dance Master branch in a brothel?"

It was Hu Yaoyao who spoke, and even she, as an Ethereal Dancer, seemed unaware.

In fact, she had thought the same as Yu Fei'er—that Master Zhang was taking her to that kind of place! She had been agonizing over whether to refuse if he made any improper requests... She never expected this brothel to be an Ethereal Dance Master branch!

"The Ethereal Dance profession originated from dancing courtesans. Only by performing frequently for different audiences can one improve faster and unleash the strongest combat power... So, apart from the Ethereal Dance Masters at our Master Teacher Academy, other branches are basically brothels..."

As if understanding, Luo Qiqi stuck out her tongue, a bit embarrassed, and quickly explained.

Unexpectedly, this girl knew about it. Zhang Xuan was startled, then nodded.

Hearing the explanation, Yu Fei'er's face grew even hotter, but she still looked up with determination: "I still want to go see!"

"I want to go too..." Luo Qiqi added.

"Fine!"

Seeing he couldn't dissuade them, Zhang Xuan didn't bother arguing further.

He was only going for a rank assessment, not to do anything else. Bringing them along wouldn't matter.

The four left the War Master Hall and walked for about five or six kilometers until a massive building appeared before them.

Before they even reached it, they could hear a cacophony of voices, with many people coming and going, bustling with activity.

Almost everyone there was a young man, and judging by their attire and bearing, they were all quite wealthy.

"So beautiful, truly beautiful..."

"Yes, if I could spend a night with such a fairy, I'd die happy!"

"Die once? I'd die ten times!"

"Enough talk, hurry up. Fairy Ziyan's Ethereal Dance is about to start..."

...

The surrounding chatter was lively, and the young men entering were all excited, eyes gleaming.

"It seems the Ethereal Dance profession is very popular in Qingyuan Empire." Zhang Xuan nodded.

He had visited many other guilds, but none were as lively as this.

"I suspect it's not the profession that's popular..."

Yu Fei'er snorted.

"Let's go." Smiling, Zhang Xuan didn't say more and stepped forward to enter.

These people coveting the beauty of Ethereal Dancers was indeed a factor, but more importantly, the Ethereal Dance profession's influence on the soul. Without that, everyone being cultivators, they wouldn't be so captivated and unable to extricate themselves just for some women.

"Brother, are you... coming to Saichun Tower?"

Before they reached the entrance, a young man looked at them in astonishment, as if seeing a ghost.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Xuan said.

The young man appeared to be in his thirties and was actually slightly stronger than Zhang Xuan, at the initial stage of Saint Realm Tier 3.

Having such strength at that age indicated a wealthy background.

"Nothing... Just found it strange."

Glancing at Hu Yaoyao and the others, the young man quickly shook his head.

He already had three stunning beauties by his side, yet he still came to a brothel... Quite bold.

Most importantly, these three women actually agreed...

Guessing his thoughts, Zhang Xuan didn't bother explaining and continued forward with the three women to the door.

A servant blocked the entrance: "Do you have a reservation?"

Zhang Xuan shook his head: "I'm here on business, not..."

"Everyone who comes here says they have business. Without a reservation, please go back. We're fully booked now, and even if you go in, you won't see Fairy Ziyan!"

The servant said impatiently.

He seemed unconcerned about who the person was or their strength.

It seemed he had seen this kind of scene many times and knew no one would dare cause trouble outside the Ethereal Dance Master Guild.

"We're not here to see..."

A bit displeased, Zhang Xuan was about to explain when the young man who had spoken to him earlier approached and raised an eyebrow: "Alright, this is my friend. Does my friend need a reservation to enter?"

"So it's Young Master Chu's friend. I wouldn't dare!"

The servant quickly bowed respectfully.

"Good." Nodding, Young Master Chu turned to Zhang Xuan: "Friend, I've already booked a private room. Come along!"

"This..."

Zhang Xuan frowned.

"Without a reservation, you can't get in. And if you can't get in, what can you do?" Young Master Chu laughed.

"Alright."

Seeing the endless stream of people entering Saichun Tower, it was true that without a reservation, he might not get in. Making a scene just to enter would be more trouble than it was worth...

Understanding this, Zhang Xuan nodded: "Thank you."

"Don't mention it. Seeing you come with beauties, I can tell you're a kindred spirit. Helping each other is only right..."

Young Master Chu winked, with an expression that said, "I understand."

"I..."

Seeing his expression, Zhang Xuan knew he had misunderstood. He wanted to explain, but the other man said proudly: "Don't worry, a friend's wife is not to be trifled with. Since you're my friend, I'll respect your women. Rest assured..."

Zhang Xuan held his forehead.

What was this all about?

Forget it.

Better not to explain, or it would only cause more trouble.

Following Young Master Chu, they soon arrived at a private room on the second floor.

The room was very clean and offered a full view of the main hall of Saichun Tower. More importantly, there were several other private rooms inside, very spacious, clearly indicating that booking this room was expensive.

"Young Master!"

As soon as they entered, several women greeted them, all of them quite attractive.

Though far inferior to Hu Yaoyao and the others, they were still beauties among a hundred.

"Mm."

Young Master Chu nodded and looked at Zhang Xuan: "These are my lovers. I had them come wait beforehand. Watching an Ethereal Dance makes your soul leave your body. If I don't cool down, I'm afraid I can't take it..."

"Cool down?"

"Yes, the Ethereal Dancers at Saichun Tower sell their art but not their bodies. But those dance moves, that waist, that posture, that charm... Just one look and you lose your life. Just watching without being able to touch, who can stand it?"

Young Master Chu shook his head: "Bringing beauties along... I can tell you're of the same ilk."

"Ahem, I'm not here for that."

Hearing this guy getting more and more ridiculous, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but say: "I'm looking for the Ethereal Dance Master..."

"We're all men, I understand. Who comes here not looking for Ethereal Dancers? By the way, may I ask your name? I am Chu Xiang."

Smiling, Young Master Chu introduced himself.

"So it's Young Master Chu Xiang. I am Zhang Xuan."

Zhang Xuan nodded.

Having suffered from using a pseudonym last time, he didn't bother this time and directly revealed his real name.

After all, his purpose here wasn't to see any fairy but to assess for Ethereal Dance Master.

"So it's Young Master Zhang. I've heard so much about you..."

Smiling, Chu Xiang said he had heard of him, but his expression showed he had never heard the name.

No wonder. In Hongyuan Empire, Zhang Xuan was a household name, but in Qingyuan Empire, few had heard of him.
