Chapter 246: This Dish... Is Bad

Translator: CatatoPatchEditor: Vermillion

At the heart of the wildlands, there was a city with many buildings. It was surrounded by thick walls that were built to protect it. Within the city, there were rows after rows of houses.

At the center of this city, there was a black tower that seemed to be made of alloy, and every floor of the tower looked incredible. The black color on the tower gave off the feeling of a very simple and unadorned architecture style.

Sheng Mu stood in front of the tower. The two elderly people who sat on the high above the first level of the tower scanned him before allowing him through. He thanked them and entered the tower. He walked up the winding stairs and did not stop until he reached the top of the tower.

There, there was only one room. Sheng Mu mumbled some words and that steel door that was sealed tight started opening, making a loud noise in the process. He respectfully entered the room and found himself staring into pitch blackness.

”Great Elder Xia Yu… I, Sheng Mu, humbly requests your presence.” Sheng Mu lowered his head and paid respect while entering this pitch black yet spacious room.

Buzz!

The air buzzed. A muscular figure appeared from the darkness and slowly walked out. The figure looked humongous, even when compared to Xia Da. Looking at the muscles, one could not help but to feel pressured and threatened.

A fervent glint crossed Sheng Mu's eyes before swiftly passing as he respectfully cupped his hands.

”Young Temple Master Sheng, why have you come here?” Xia Yu's body was as huge as a ferocious beast, and yet his footsteps barely made a sound, as if he was hovering along rather than walking.

”Great Elder Xia Da… is dead,” Sheng Mu answered in a voice full of grief.

All of a sudden, the beast was filled with rage and anger. He stared and coldy uttered, ”What did you just say? While Xia Da may be my younger brother, he is still at the level of a War-God. How could he die so easily? It's not like he is brainless. I even warned him not to provoke those few old monsters. Why would he die?”

Sheng Mu trembled and cold sweat ran down his back. Xia Yu was a Great Elder of the Three Godly Temple of the Wildlands… Needless to say, his cultivation level was unfathomable. He achieved the echelon of a War-God years ago and was even close to becoming a Supreme-Being. It had been many years since then, and no one knew what was his cultivation level now.

Sheng Mu fearfully explained to the raging Xia Yu what happened in Light Wind Empire, after which he kept his lips sealed tight. His fear was caused by the icy cold killing intent the hulking man before him radiated, and even the air around him seemed to freeze up in fear as well.

”He dares to kill my brother… Even if he were a Supreme-Being, he would have to pay the price!” Xia Yu gritted his teeth, eyes turning red with killing intent.

He then looked at Sheng Mu and coldly yelled, ”Get lost!”

Sheng Mu turned pale. He looked up at the fearsome Xia Yu and despite his aggrieved state, left without saying a word. Leaving the tower, his face was as dark as night itself. At the end, however, he laughed. He laughed so uproariously, that the air around him seemed to reverberate from the laughter.

...

Bu Fang could definitely attest that, right now, he had indeed entered the so-called ”Man's Paradise”. It was said that Jiangnan in China was a place for philanderers. This Southern City could be considered a southern region of the Light Wind Empire as well—in that sense, the two places seemed to overlap onto each other, not only in terms of location but in terms of their philandering ways as well.

In the capital, places like brothels had to be more discreet as that was where the Son of Heaven lived.

Bu Fang was an aspiring young chef back in his previous world, one that was laden with responsibilities. Naturally, he had no time for such places.

Now, however, he found himself in just such a shady place that was so nicely renovated, it was even comparable to the compound of the palace. No wonder the Southern City was considered the land of wealth in the Light Wind Empire. There was truly a lot of rich people there.

Bu Fang expression did not change although he felt perturbed. A place of debauchery huh… It sounded amazing, but how was its food? Would there be any local delicacies there?

If the Aunt Liu dragging him along right now knew of his actual thoughts… she would have probably given him a tight one across his face with her shoes.

”A grown man like you visits the Spring Fragrance Brothel just to taste some food? How about showing some aspiration?” Was what she would have probably said if she knew.

Admittedly, his heart skipped a beat for the briefest of moments, but for the most part his expression remained calm despite being surrounded by a bevy of girls. Soon, hee was brought to a resplendent room by Aunt Liu.

Sitting by the table, Aunt Liu smiled and gestured for two young beautiful ladies to come over.

”Serve this young master. This young master has a special fetish, so remember to give him a few extra flavors, got it?”

”Don't worry, Aunt Liu. This young master is so good-looking, this servant's heart is giddy just thinking about it.”

Aunt Liu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed, ”Youngsters, remember to restrain yourselves, Aunt Liu will leave first. Chun Hua, Qiu Yue, it's up to you now.”

Aunt Liu worked in this industry for years and developed sharp eyes for identifying rich men just by looking at their clothing and temperament.

Bu Fang was neatly dressed and his facial appearance was clean as well. The clothes on him were clearly made of expensive material. Based on her astute judgement, she identified that it was made in a silk villa in the capital. The silk made there was very expensive and a normal person would usually be unable to afford it.

Based on all that, this young man was surely a rich person. He might just be a playboy from the capital who came here to have fun.
