Chapter 126: Chapter 24: Brother Chu, I’ll be good to you for a lifetime! 【New book asking for monthly tickets!】_1

West of the city, Windy Lunar Street.

Windy Lunar Street in Taotie City has a reputation in the Immortal Cultivation World as it’s virtually impossible to find female cultivators willing to entertain others in the brothels throughout the Nine States Land. However, on this street, almost all medium to large brothels have resident female cultivators. Of course, those with the qualification to indulge here are all cultivators; scholars and gentlemen, none of whom would disrespect the ladies.

The long street is filled with a riot of floral colors. In the center, ethereal maidens dressed in colorful robes swirl and dance, creating an enchanting spectacle of fluttering butterflies and strange phenomena. Intermittently, new stages and performances spring up, these are well-trained ladies sent by the neighboring brothels to attract customers.

The whole scene is reminiscent of a fairyland of music and dance.

Chu Liang moved slowly, stepping over the soft petals. As an educated cultivator, who had transcended base desires, who was devoid of wealth, and who was of noble spiritual integrity, he certainly wouldn’t come here for pleasure.

He arrived at a high tower named Lanyue Building and jumped up. The patrons here were all cultivators, hence the Lanyue Building did not have a main gate facing the street, but a towering gate made of pure white light at the top of the building. Chu Liang’s figure flashed through the light gate in an instant, and he then arrived behind the gate.

"Welcome, Immortal!"

The first sight that met his eyes were two rows of fluttering robed maidens lined up on either side, their feet wreathed in cloudy mists and a gentle breeze rustling their garments. They were modestly dressed, giving off an aura of divinity, only revealing the creamy skin on their shoulders and portion of their legs.

No wonder it’s called Lanyue Building. The design of the suspended gate and the reception by the maidens does give one the feeling of ascending to the Nine Heavens to catch the moon.

How professional indeed.

Chu Liang couldn’t help but express his admiration, then he waved his hand and said, "I am here to find someone. Is Brother Wenren from the Sea King Sect here?"

Yes, his purpose today was to find Wenren Mo.

Although they did not exchange addresses before, as a core disciple from the Ten Earth Sects, Wenren Mo had a flashy lifestyle and extravagant spending habits, making it easy to track his movements. Earlier, Chu Liang had taken Xu Sui’s assistance to investigate and found out that Wenren Mo was staying at the Lanyue Building, having rented a private room there for a long time.

So this guy considers a brothel as his home.

"So you’re here to visit Fellow Immortal Wenren? He is residing in the Yellow Court Palace, I’ll have Weave Cloud notify him," One leading fairy explained with dignity, instructing a maiden to deliver the message. Soon, Weave Cloud returned and softly said, "Brother Wenren invites you in."

"Alright, please lead the way." The fairy raised her hand.

"Thank you," Chu Liang followed Weave Cloud through the misty path, passing various towers and pavilions, until they reached a bi-coloured building with an elegantly written sign hanging overhead bearing the words "Yellow Court Palace".

Wow, they really go all out...

Chu Liang was amazed. He entered the building and finally saw "Brother Wenren".

Wenren Mo was concocting a potion, focusing intently on the divine fire in the golden furnace. Upon Chu Liang’s entrance, Wenren Mo looked up and smiled, "Brother Chu."

"Brother Wenren," Chu Liang greeted in return, shaking his head thoughtfully, "Your style is too professional. Even the part of Immortal refining the elixir is enacted?"

"What are you talking about..." Wenren Mo waved his hand, "I am genuinely concocting a potion. I plan to make a batch of Spring-preserving Beauty Pills as a gift for Miss Xu."

"This is my trump card. No woman, whether mortal or cultivator, can resist it. I originally planned to use it as a token of my affections for her, but since we are at a disadvantage now, I must resort to using it earlier."

Chu Liang looked at Wenren Mo’s serious expression and curiously asked, "How bad is the situation? Wenren, how far have you gotten with Miss Xu?"

"If I can please her with this batch of elixir, perhaps I can get her to talk to me," Wenren Mo responded with full confidence.

"..." So you haven’t even managed to have a conversation with her yet.

That seemed normal, though. Xu Hongqiu was a courageous and determined woman, far from a common lady. It wasn’t just a matter of whether such a maiden harbored any romantic feelings; even if she did, she wouldn’t be easily fooled by men.

With such a target, Brother Wenren had no hope of success, even after one hundred years.

Of course, if there was the slightest chance of success, Chu Liang wouldn’t be here today. He had initiated today’s plan only after being convinced that Xu Hongqiu could never be attracted to Wenren Mo.

"I do have something here that can help you keep your elixir longer, at least it can surely help you complete the conversation with Miss Xu," Chu Liang said with a slight smile.

"Oh?" Wenren Mo immediately became interested and asked, "What is it?"

"Miss Xu came to Taotie City this time to investigate the matter of Ten Thousand Beasts Hall. The disturbance in the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall a few days ago is related to this, but I know she hasn’t made much progress so far." Chu Liang said, "I have substantial evidence in my hand that can directly solve the case of Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, allowing her to achieve great results."

"What is it?" Wenren Mo was slightly excited. He had naturally heard of the case of Ten Thousand Beasts Hall. Chasing Xu Hongqiu from south to north, he wouldn’t be completely ignorant.

But Chu Liang actually had substantial evidence, which surprised him.

"It’s a ledger of insiders from the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall dealing with outsiders to steal and sell demon beasts," Chu Liang said.

"You have this kind of thing in your hand?" Wenren Mo grabbed Chu Liang’s hand, "If Miss Xu gets it, she will be very happy, Brother Chu, if you give me this thing, I will be good to you for the rest of my life!"

"I came here, of course, to give it to Brother Wenren." Chu Liang smiled.

"To get such a thing, Brother Chu must have paid a significant price. I can’t let you lose out for nothing." Wenren Mo immediately began to ponder, "What should I give in return?"

Good job, Brother Wenren.

Chu Liang secretly nodded in his heart. It’s comfortable to deal with people who are well versed in Emotional Quotient. They don’t wait for you to negotiate a price before thinking about what to exchange. It makes the business conversation feel smooth and natural.

"We get along well, Brother Wenren. Let’s not cheapen the deal by talking about money," Chu Liang laughed.

These words naturally were a hint for Wenren Mo to not offer Spirit Stone Coin.

Like the previous incident at the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, why did he propose to use demon beasts to offset the elixir’s cost? Firstly, asking for Spirit Stone Coin would be hard to match the price of a fifth-stage demon beast, and secondly, if he ended up with Spirit Stone Coin, the result would be predictable...

In any business involving his master, any profit might end up being split with a seventy-thirty ratio.

The painful memory of last time was still fresh in Chu Liang’s mind!

On the other hand, asking for a Spirit Beast or treasures, these are objects that Empress Feng neither needs nor desires, so they would ultimately end up in his hands, wouldn’t they?

Upon hearing this, Wenren Mo naturally understood the hints that Chu Liang was giving.

No need for money?

This presented quite a high level of difficulty as it gave him a lot of room to maneuver. What to offer in return to avoid losing out, but also satisfy Chu Liang, was indeed a problem.

After awhile, he took out a glowing red orb the size of a fist, which shone with a divine light in his hand.

"I obtained this Red Lotus Treasure Orb the other day at an absolute bargain. Although its value is high, it doesn’t quite match the cultivation technique I’m practicing, and I was thinking of getting rid of it anyways. If it could be used to compensate Brother Chu, then that would be great."

He handed over the Red Lotus Treasure Orb to Chu Liang.

"This object can emit divine light that pierces through the underworld, illuminating thousands of miles in the dark night. It can also produce Lotus Divine Fire, which specifically counters dark spirits and evil hauntings. If Brother Chu finds it useful, please accept it."

"Ah, alright then," Chu Liang accepted reluctantly.

Upon inspecting the Red Lotus Treasure Orb, he found that Wenren Mo wasn’t lying. This thing was indeed of Supreme Yang nature. Infusing it with True Qi could either trigger Divine Light or Divine Fire. The higher the user’s cultivation, the stronger the power. This was a treasure that could be used for a long time.

He then handed over the ledger he had obtained from the three little ones to Wenren Mo, saying, "Then I’ll leave this piece of evidence to Brother Wenren to give to Miss Xu."

With the matter settled, he got up to bid his farewell. As he was leaving, Wenren Mo tried to persuade him to stay.

"Brother Chu, now that you’re here, wouldn’t you like to share in the experience of ascending the immortals?" He laughed.

"No, no." Chu Liang quickly waved his hand to decline, "I’ll ascend another day."
