Then he walked towards the street.
...
As the days passed, half a month went by in the blink of an eye.
Chen Xuan also returned to a regular life, cultivating normally by day, or reading books, while at night he worked hard for skill points.
As for Qin Ke... heâs busy like a dog.
He has no time for cultivation, and itâs torturous because the position of director in Great Yu hasnât been decided yet, leaving him most troubled.
Chen Xuan couldnât do anything about it.
Persuasion was of no use, so he let him be.
In the brothel, Xian Si arranged for a few women to join, and the business upgraded several levels, already preparing to open another brothel.
It was too small now, and she didnât like the style.
As for September City, because Nine Immortals Tower suddenly disappeared, other brothel businesses boomed.
Among them, the best was a brothel named Qingyue.
Because... recently a stunningly beautiful woman arrived.
More beautiful than the girls from Nine Immortals Tower back then.
Directly setting off the entire September City.
At this moment, in a private room of a tavern.
"Brother Huan, whatâs wrong with you? Youâve been a bit gloomy lately."
Across from Gu Huan, a young man in a red robe named Liu Yanjing.
The Liu Family wasnât weaker than the Gu Family and had a deep relationship in the Imperial City.
The relationship between the two families was unusual; they had played together since childhood.
However, Liu Yanjingâs Martial Dao talent was lacking, even though the Liu Family invested heavily in resources, now reaching only late-stage Immortal Grade.
"Itâs nothing, just annoyed."
Gu Huan drank wine and replied indifferently.
"Haha!"
Liu Yanjing chuckled; he knew Gu Huan well but didnât expose him openly. Instead, he said, "Recently, thereâs a stunning woman at Qingyue, want to go see her?"
"Brothel?"
Gu Huan frowned slightly, looked at him, "You know I donât go to those places."
The heir of the prestigious Gu Family couldnât possibly go to a brothel; if it got out, Gu Yun would break his leg.
"I think you might be interested in this woman."
"Oh?"
Gu Huan was surprised and asked, "Do I know her?"
"You probably donât!"
Liu Yanjing shook his head, "Letâs go, youâll know when we get there; what man doesnât go to a brothel, seriously."
With that, he dragged him out of the tavern.
The two arrived at Qingyue, and although it was still daytime, Liu Yanjingâs status allowed him to make arrangements with just a word.
"Brother Huan, Iâll leave now, the lady will be here shortly."
"Youâll definitely like her."
Seeing his confidence and mystery, Gu Huan was very puzzled.
"Whatâs this all about?"
"The one you like, hahaha...."
Liu Yanjing laughed heartily and left the room.
"Damn thing!"
Gu Huan shook his head, cursing with a smile.
Then, he picked up the tea on the table, poured a cup, and drank.
However, in his mind, her image remained constant.
"Half a month has passed."
Murmuring to himself.
Wondering how Pengyou was doing?
"Knock, knock, knock."
At that moment, a soft knock interrupted his thoughts.
His brow slightly raised, he put down his tea cup, then spoke calmly, "Come in!"
"Creak."
The door opened, and a woman in white walked in slowly.
When Gu Huan saw her, he was stunned.
"Pengyou!"
"No!"
"But... so similar!"
Involuntarily swallowing, he snapped back to attention.
No wonder Liu Yanjing was so confident, saying heâd like her.
Because he knew this secret, which Gu Huan accidentally blurted out when drunk.
Afterwards, he almost wanted to silence him forever.
If it got out, it would greatly impact not only him but also the Gu Familyâs reputation.
It was Liu Yanjing revealing one of his secrets that stopped him from killing him.
Which was far beyond compare.
He got involved with one of his fatherâs women and even had a child.
When Gu Huan heard him say this, he was dumbfounded.
He fathered his own brother!
Since then, their relationship deepened further.
"So this is the eldest son of the Gu Family, Gu Huan?"
The woman was none other than the Demon Race Saintessâs doppelganger.
"Hopefully, he can tell me about the event back then."
During this time, she performed Soul Search on many people but gained no information.
So she came here.
To approach the young masters of the major families in September City.
Unexpectedly, she met the eldest son of the Gu Family today.
However... his gaze was somewhat unusual.
Human men typically showed desire seeing her, but he showed... surprise.
"Little miss Mo Ran greets you."
After bowing, she approached Gu Huan.
"Mo Ran?"
Gu Huan mouthed the name, which sounded lovely, just like Pengyouâs.
"Master, may Mo Ran sit?"
"Oh... sit, quickly sit!"
Gu Huan hurriedly said, even personally pulling out a chair for her.
And then he sat a bit closer.
"Really so similar!"
At such close distance, she felt increasingly like Pengyou.
He seemed to treat Mo Ran as if she were Pengyou.
"Very strange."
Mo Ranâs mind grew more bewildered.
What was going on?
His expression seemed increasingly peculiar.
So she picked up the tea cup, "Master, Mo Ran will feed you tea."
"Ah... good!"
Gu Huanâs eyes flashed with a bit of excitement.
Even though sheâs not!
But just pretend; enjoy the wanton behavior of dreams once.
