Without any insane technique or powerful righteous words.
Just one slash of his sword, and the man in green and his fellow peers were annihilated.
The crowd was pin-drop silent.
Those who had evil intentions suddenly reminded themselves of the vast difference in realm.
Cleaning everything down to the root.
Perfect.
It didn’t take long for us to reach the entrance.
Mei showed my insignia to the two guards there, then noticed my gaze on her.
Both bowed slightly without saying another word.
“Welcome to Longmen City.”
I nodded slightly, then stepped into the city.
From outside, it might not appear like much.
But inside, it was vast and spacious—enough to comfortably contain the entire population of my previous world.
“Welcome to Longmen City, Esteemed Daoists.”
A cultivator at the Core Formation realm approached us with a smile.
“I’m a guide.
Do you mind if I offer my services to you?” she said amicably.
“Go on,” I said evenly behind my mask.
The guards with me gradually drifted out of view, though they stayed close enough to reach us within a split second if any threat arose.
“Sure.
Would you like to hear the history of the—”
I cut her off.
“No history.
Just the interesting places.
And the places of fun within its walls.”
Princess Xue chuckled.
When I glanced at her, she just shrugged.
“Okay,” the guide continued with a smile.
She led the way, introducing some places as we went.
The deeper we went into the city, the more interesting it became.
“Esteemed Daoists, this is the Red Lotus Brothel,” the guide said, pointing toward a pagoda where a lot of men were going in eagerly, while others came out looking blissful.
My eyes lingered there a second longer than they should have.
Which made me feel an intense gaze on my back.
“Is this the famous brothel in this city?” I said evenly.
Everyone in the group had a different reaction.
Princess Xue looked at me with undisguised fury and disgust.
Mei remained quiet, but her gaze held curiosity.
Lian had a helpless look mixed with a bit of shock.
Host, don’t tell me you’re serious.
The guide wanted to answer my question.
But the moment she opened her mouth to continue—
I felt pressure flare up before the guide collapsed unconscious on the street.
“Young Master Zaitian.
What happened to her?” Princess Xue said with an innocent smile.
This lady is really crazy.
“I suppose I should be asking you.”
Mei approached the guide after a quick check.
“She’s still alive.
She’ll wake up in a moment.”
She looked at Princess Xue, who shrugged.
“She was knocked out due to intense realm pressure.”
I looked at Princess Xue, then sighed.
“You don’t want us to behave like a normal couple, and you won’t allow me to be normal either,” I said calmly.
“Young Master Zaitian.
I know that in the near future you will have more than me.
But so long as I am here with you, you don’t have permission to see another woman.”
I looked at her, then chuckled.
Ding.
I raised an eyebrow.
Host, you have a new task.
Task: Increase Princess Xue’s affection toward you to 10%.
Current Affection: 2%
Reward: A fragment of knowledge about the truth behind the Spine collapse.
