3039 The Beauty Pavilion

“How do you plan to relax?” Feng Jiu looked at him. His air of mystery piqued her curiosity.

Wanyan s.h.i.+san reached out to put his arm around her, but then realised she was a woman, so he retracted his hand and stared at her bemusedly. “I can’t believe I forgot you’re a woman after only a few days.”

As soon as the words came out, the people behind who were leaning on each other were shocked, and their eyes went straight to the figure in azure. Was this person actually a woman?

Feng Jiu shot him a glance. “I don’t think you treated me like a woman on this journey.”

!!

“Hehe, what makes you so incredibly powerful? You are so terrifying that you can’t possibly be a woman.” Wanyan s.h.i.+san grinned. “Forget it. I wanted to take you to broaden your horizons, but it looks like I have to go alone.”

“The brothel?”

“What?” Wanyan s.h.i.+san looked at her. “Brothel? Do you think I’d visit a place like that? Those with no status visit the brothel, while those with status visit the Beauty Pavilion.”

She was taken aback when she heard this. “Have you been there before? Does this city have one?”

“You can find the Beauty Pavilion in every city. As long as there are cities, there will always be a Beauty Pavilion. There is no way there isn’t a Beauty Pavilion around here.” Wanyan s.h.i.+san chuckled and winked at her. “Moreover, the beauties there have unique abilities. They don’t, however, offer escort favours. Every one of them has very exquisite talents. How is it? Are you interested? Shall I bring you there?”

When Feng Jiu heard this, she turned to the people behind her and said, “Go find an inn to stay in!”

“Yes.”

They replied. After thinking about it, one said, “Senior, we’ll go to the largest inn in the city. If the two seniors return, please go directly to the largest inn! We will reserve a guest room for you.”

“Alright.”

Feng Jiu answered back, then followed Wanyan s.h.i.+san to find out where the Beauty Pavilion was. Two tiger beasts in the shape of kittens trailed close behind her. Their lovely and cute appearance drew many women on the street to look at them.

They asked around about the Beauty Pavilion’s location. When shown inside, Wanyan s.h.i.+san turned to look at Feng Jiu in an ingratiating manner. “Go ahead, pay the pavilion’s entry fee.”

“You should be ashamed to ask a woman to pay for you when you go out in town.” Despite this, she followed the man into the house and went inside to pay.

“I’m poor,” Wanyan s.h.i.+san said as he followed her inside. “I’m not as rich as you.” As he spoke, he looked around and noticed that many female cultivators, as well as the young misses of the clans who were covered with veils, had also arrived. He couldn’t help but wonder, “Why are there so many women here today?”

With a smile, the maid who led the way in front said, “You two came here at a good time. Tonight is the annual appraisal of our Beauty Pavilion. Everyone can take part, whether they are a female cultivator or the daughter of an influential family. The winner will receive the lavish reward of our Beauty Pavilion as well as obtaining the t.i.tle of the first beauty.”

“Hahaha, it looks like we showed up just in time. So we can actually watch this? It’s well worth the money.” He laughed loudly and entered the building with large strides.

Because their seats were based on how much they paid to get in, they were put in the front row where they could get a better view. They went to the front and sat down. In front of them was a round stage in the middle that was beautifully decorated and surrounded by bead curtains and light muslins. People could just barely make out a few gracefully dancing figures, but their faces couldn’t be seen.
