Divine Brilliance

Zong Shou’s body shuddered, thinking to himself, Wow okay! I was thinking who created the rumors. So one of the sources came from you Hu Zhongyuan.

Scoffing heavily, Zong Shou walked forwards towards the hall with large steps, filled with the vitality of a tiger. A cold glow flashing in his eyes, his lips revealing a cold smile. This building was roughly 5 stories tall, painted in red paint. It was both elegant whilst also looking majestic.

And just as Zong Shou passed the door, he saw a girl roughly Xuanyuan Yiren’s age walk out. Her bodily was devilish, having a graceful demeanor. Behind her followed 2 maidservants, one carrying a zither and the other carrying a pippa.

Seeing Zong Shou walk over, she was first startled. Then she shook her head, “What is happening to the world? Such a small kid knows how to come to this toxic place to find joy.”

She turned around and said to a middle-aged woman who was sending her out, “Mother Zhang, give me face today. This kid is too young, don’t let him in.”

Zong Shou’s brows furrowed as he heard that, only hearing her voice was like a fountain, pleasing to the ear. Only then did he raise his head and looked at that girl.

Only then was he astonished to realize that not only was her body exquisite and graceful, her looks were also top class.

Elegant. Her skin was even better than snow and her eyes were like clear water, making one stare at her. She had an out of this world feeling making one feel ashamed about how bad they looked.

However, this girl bothered too much about things which weren’t her business right?

No matter what his body had crossed 14, he couldn’t be said to be a kid. The head underneath of his was already of a certain scale too.

No, he wasn’t coming over here to look for flowers and to enjoy but to seek answers and punish that Hu Zhongyuan.

Then, he heard that elegant but dressed middle-aged woman smile, “Don’t worry Miss Yunlan, even if you didn’t say I won’t let such a small kid go in. This small kid’s identity is not ordinary, so we weren’t willing to make his parents angry.”

Zong Shou instantly laughed, rage appearing in his eyes.

That Miss Yunlan who was probably the one who played the zither from before nodded her head in satisfaction before bringing the 2 maids and leaving from the side.

Zong Shou didn’t bother, still walking towards that door.

As expected that middle-aged woman with just a look, numerous muscular, 7 feet tall man blocked in front of him. Then, Mother Zhang burst out laughing, “You’re just so small, why did you run over here? You were brought over by your maid. Quiet Cloud Pavilion is the top brothel in Shili Ling Xiangding, it is not a place for you kids to play. Young master, please leave as soon as possible, we won’t do your business.”

Zong Shou scoffed coldly before he thought about forcing his way through.

This Gantian Mountain belonged to him, wherever he wanted to go, he didn’t believe anyone could stop him!

The moment such a thought rose up in his head, Zong Shou stopped in his tracks. Following which he squinted his eyes, his gaze showing a wary look as he looked upwards in the building, his heart feeling shocked.

He saw several strong auras rise from within.

At this moment, his body had merged with a portion of the essence of the lightning phoenix, his martial cultivation had greatly improved. In this Gantian City, he could casually make use of the aura of the country.

To make him feel slightly threatened, one had to be a grade 6 realm Xuanwu ancestor or a Return to Sun spirit master.

At this moment, within this small brothel, there were 4 Xuanwu ancestors that he could feel! There was also more than 3 Return to Sun realm spirit masters!

This brothel was a place where dragons hid and tigers crouched!

Within this small brothel building, there were 7 of the peak strength in the human world. It was pretty much comparable to half of the experts of his Gantian Mountain City.

Such power. No matter where it was, it could rule a region and build a country. Why did they stay here to open a brothel?

Zong Shou’s idea of forcing his way in instantly disappeared. It wasn’t that he was afraid. If he was still within the city, these 7 people couldn’t face him.

He was only instinctively wary. What was the purpose of this Quiet Cloud Pavilion? Was it to assassinate him? Or were they planning on collecting intel there?

Just as he thought about those guesses, they were disposed of right away.

This brothel was opened for a long time, and it couldn’t have gathered so many experts in a short 2 days, much less would they not recognize him.

As for getting intel of Gantian Mountain city, that was all the more impossible. 7 experts gathering together could even try to stage a coup.

Mother Zhang didn’t even bother to look at his expression, her lips rising as she smiled, “Teen I know that your maidservants are both dual cultivators and are strong. The young family was deep-rooted, but my Quiet Cloud Pavillion isn’t something you can anger. I think you should just go back early!”

Then she looked at Zong Shou in disdain, “At such a small age, who knows if you even have hair down there. To run over to this Shili Ling Xiangding. If you want to find happiness and joy, come back in 2 years…”

When the sound landed, that Mother Zhang stopped bothering about Zong Shou, her body elegant and supple as she walked into the hall.

Zong Shou was furious, smiling instead of showing his rage. His heart comprehended the Quiet Cloud Pavilion.

It was mentioned that within the common people path there was a sect known as the Qingyin School which loved to cultivate in entertainment areas of the common people. The disciples were musicians, songstresses, and entertainers who didn’t sell their bodies, to spend their time in entertainment venues to train up their heart realms.

Out of the 9 sects of the common people path, this Qingyin School was the most special in the way it did things. The methods it used and the way it handled things were the most peaceful and gentle too.

It wasn’t a spiritual house nor was it a shrine. The place they cultivated in were in brothels which made things a little awkward.

Based on his temper, he wanted to immediately move troops to level out and destroy this Quiet Cloud Pavilion. Although there were many experts, since they could not see how strong Ruoshui was actually, then there should be a limit to how strong they were.

However, today, since there was half a chance that they might be from the same school as him in the future, it wasn’t appropriate for him to act.

Just as he was hesitating in his heart, he felt his sleeves being tugged. Turning his head and looked, he saw Chuxue pitifully looking over, obviously unwilling to enter.

He couldn’t help but sigh, thinking to himself to forget about it, temporarily letting this place pass and make plans about it in the future.

He coldly looked at this 5 story building and instantly he heard a sound “Be careful”.

Looking up, he saw one of the windows open. A few girls were giggling as they splashed a basin of water down.

Zong Shou was instantly furious, his body extremely swift and flexible, together with Chuxue and Ruoshui they dodged backward.

Just as his body rose up 5 foot into the air, he felt the energy within his body suddenly go chaotic. Then, he lost control and fell face-first into the ground.

In the next instance, the water was right in front of him. He didn’t even have time to dodge as he was drenched by the water from above. A series of laughs from above was like silver bells ringing.

Chuxue subconsciously burst out laughing. She immediately helped him up. Then she saw her young master look over with a doubtful expression.

She was filled with confusion until Ruoshui smiled and used her lips to explain did she frantically shake her head, angrily and wronged as she said, “Young master why did you suspect me? I am not so free to paste that luck talisman on you! Sister Ruoshui can be the witness…”

Zong Shou was startled. Since it wasn’t her, then for what reason?

How could such a low probability thing like true qi going chaotic happen so coincidentally?

Speaking of which, the only thing that could have a relation to that luck talisman happened 2 days ago when he used 5-6 luck praying talismans on himself.

He remembered the tearing of his voice as well as what had happened before. He couldn’t help but feel a chill, instantly comprehending something.

It was most probably he used too much of the luck praying talisman, amassing bad luck which was exploding out now.

It seems like this cheating artifact wasn’t as perfect as he thought and he should use it more carefully in the future.

He was so furious that steam came out of his body. After standing up, his face turned purple as he stared at this building, his eyes like swords.

This was such a huge humiliation. If he didn’t take revenge, how was he going to see people in the future! How preposterous, what Qingyin School, how arrogant!

As Chuxue looked at Zong Shou rage in front of this brothel, she felt her anger vented whilst also feeling amused, happy in her heart. Thinking that during this period of time this young master probably wouldn’t run to Shili Ling Xiangding.

Her face acted like she was staring at a common enemy, “Young master, why don’t I ask Brother Zong Yuan to bring troops over to destroy this Quiet Cloud Pavilion? These people are so infuriating!”

When Zong Shou heard that he declined to comment, his eyes rolling as he had made up his mind. He scoffed before turning his head and leaving.

He had a dark smile on his face, thinking to himself that how could he just destroy this brothel appease the rage in his heart? That was also too despicable and too barbaric. He also needed to win people by virtue. He needed the owner of this Quiet Cloud Pavilion owner to personally request to meet him before his anger can be released.

He also had to have a proper reason, to openly do so and not leave any bargaining advantages to others.

When Chuxue saw the situation, she was slightly shocked. With her young master’s personality of never leaving an overnight hatred, how could he just walk away without even making a sound after being so furious? Moreover, he was on his home ground?

…This was totally unlike Zong Shou’s usual style.

Did this Quiet Cloud Pavilion have a strong background? So strong that the young master had to worry?

Just as she wanted to ask, Ruoshui suddenly pulled her hand, smiling as she pointed at Zong Shou’s clothes.

Although the watermarks from before were all dried up due to the true qi from Zong Shou’s body, However, he still had a sorry figure. Not only was his hair disheveled, but after falling, his back also picked up some dirt.

Chuxue instantly understood. That’s right! If he acted out now wasn’t he just telling others that he had lost his face and been defeated?

As expected, the young master cared more about his face more than taking revenge.
