"It's Sister Zhou! You startled me!"
Ye Jinlian's complexion then returned to normal.
Zhou Yu was surprised, "Why is Fifth Sister here too?"
Lan Hua shook her head, not knowing, but only that it seemed a good show was about to unfold.
Zhou Yan'er smiled sweetly.
"I've heard so much about Sunset Spring, and I've come here today to experience it for myself. Do you mind, elder sister?"
Ye Jinlian took off her clothes, sank back into the spring water, and laughed, "Of course I don't mind!"
The dampness on her face added a touch of charm to her smiling expression.
Zhou Yan'er was slightly pleased, and then began to take off her clothes, revealing a beauty that was more beautiful with each layer.
Lan Hua was slightly stunned. She hadn't expected Zhou Yan'er's figure to be in no way inferior to Ye Jinlian's. She hadn't noticed it before.
Two sisters bathing together—that's a rare sight indeed.
Zhou Yu sensed something was wrong and quickly grabbed Lan Hua, making their escape.
He didn't want his own sister to be taken advantage of by someone else, especially since she was a princess of a nation.
Inside the Alchemy Temple.
"Brother Lan, have you achieved your goal?"
Lan Hua nodded. "Thank you for your help, Brother Zhou. I'll treat you to a meal another day!"
Back in her dormitory, Lan Hua muttered to herself.
"It seems I was overthinking it!"
"But it's a bit strange that Ye Jinlian goes to Sunset Spring every other day. What kind of quirk is that?"
"If it's just for taking a shower, is it really worth it?"
For the next three months, Lan Hua spent her time either attending classes or cultivating, and her days were quite fulfilling.
He has become increasingly proficient in the Dan Tian Jue, and can easily control the release of Dan fire. He has also made some progress in alchemy.
Although Ye Jinlian was not talkative, she gradually integrated into the group.
This day.
Dan Jiu invited everyone to a small gathering in Zongyang City, and Lan Hua and the others gladly accepted.
This has almost become a routine; every now and then, someone will lead a small gathering.
Even Ye Jinlian invited him once.
The location where Shan Jiu hosted the dinner was surprisingly good; it was called the Peony Courtyard.
To die beneath the peony blossoms is to die a romantic death—that's exactly the kind of Peony Courtyard we're talking about.
Peony Courtyard is quite famous in Zongyang City. As one of the four most amorous courtyards, it is a place of pleasure where men indulge in debauchery.
However, with two beautiful women among the group, Shan Jiu didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
Fortunately, the food at Peony Courtyard is the best in Zongyang City, so having a decent meal there is no problem.
Everyone ate and drank to their heart's content.
Suddenly, a scream came from upstairs.
"Murder! Murder!"
A woman rushed out of the room, barely clothed and looking terrified.
The Peony Courtyard is divided into a dining area and a romantic area. The dining area is on the first floor, while the romantic area is on the second floor and above.
The VIP private rooms for important clients are located on the top floor.
Zhou Yu stood up. "Let's go take a look!"
When Lan Hua and the other two entered the room, they did not see anyone dead. Instead, they saw a person crouching in the corner, trembling.
There was a small pool of blood on the ground.
"I've been castrated!"
This was the first thought of the three of them, and they immediately felt a chill below.
Lan Hua was alright, after all, he had once made Mo Jun of the Fire Sword Sect feel cold in the lower body.
Another scream from a woman rang out.
"It's next door!"
Dan Jiu slammed his palm into the wall, creating a large hole.
Two men were pinning down a man, one of them holding a torture knife, about to strike.
"stop!"
The man with the knife said coldly, "Who are you? How dare you obstruct me from performing my duties!"
The rough voice was mixed with a hint of high-pitchedness.
As the third prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Yu quickly understood the situation.
He whispered, "These guys aren't normal men either, they're all blind!"
Lan Hua was startled and demanded, "And who are you?"
The man with the knife snorted, "I am the executioner of the Yinluo Sect, specializing in punishing these dissolute and unrestrained individuals, restoring order and harmony to the world!"
"Yinluo Sect?"
The three were not unfamiliar with the Yinluo Sect, as there had been a lot of news about it recently, and Zhou Yu knew more about it.
The Yinluo Sect was initially formed spontaneously by some monks, who claimed to be restoring human law and advised people not to frequent brothels.
The disciples also spread the word about the wonders of the Immaculate Body, and even claimed that cultivating the Immaculate Body would grant immortality.
The Great Zhou Dynasty didn't pay much attention at first, but they never expected that the Yinluo Sect would grow stronger and stronger and even start to go to extremes.
To openly and privately execute someone in a brothel.
Zhou Yu said in a deep voice, "No wonder there have been more and more rumors about the Yinluo Sect lately. It turns out you've already extended your reach to Zongyang City!"
The man with the knife gave a sinister smile.
"Those who obstruct the Yinluo Sect's enforcement of the law will be executed along with you!"
Enraged, Shan Jiu unleashed a series of palm strikes, sending the three flying.
"Master Luo, save me!"
Just as the three were about to leave, a figure blocked the doorway.
It was Luo Da, the incense master of the Yinluo Sect.
The man was dressed in black and wore a hat with tassels hanging from both sides.
The man glanced at the three people who had been kicked out and let out a strange cry.
"Useless trash!"
"The three of you have shown up in this brothel and even injured members of my Yinluo Sect. You're courting death!"
Luo Da extended his right palm, and Yuan energy appeared at the edge of his palm.
With a vertical palm strike, a palm blade slashed towards Lan Hua and the other two.
The three of them narrowly avoided the silver blade energy.
boom!
The room was a mess; the red bed was split in two, and a large hole had been ripped into the floor.
The cotton wool drifted in the air, filling the entire room and creating a unique atmosphere.
Lan Hua was shocked. The man clearly had no weapon in his hand, using his palm as a blade, yet he possessed such power.
Zhou Yu and Shan Jiu drew their longswords and faced off against Luo Da.
Although Luo Da is strong, his cultivation level is only at the fifth level of the Pure Yuan Realm, but the palm strike he unleashes is quite powerful.
Zhou Yu and his companion found it difficult to subdue them in the short term.
Lan Hua shook her head slightly, "We still have to rely on me!"
He unleashed a full-force palm strike, the first move of the Heaven-Opening Palm, Severing the River.
boom!
Luo Da was suddenly blasted away by Lan Hua's palm strike, his heart meridians severed, beyond the help of even a great immortal.
"You've offended the Yinluo Sect, you'll all die sooner or later!"
On the way back to the Dan God Temple.
Dan Jiu was sullen. "What bad luck! A perfectly good get-together turned into this!"
Zhou Yu said, "Recently, the Yinluo Sect has been committing crimes frequently, specifically targeting places like the Peony Courtyard. Why did you choose the Peony Courtyard for your gathering this time, Brother Shan?"
Dan Jiu hesitated, but his eyes turned to Ye Jinlian.
Ye Jinlian said softly, "I was just curious about the Peony Courtyard, so I mentioned it to Brother Shan!"
"I never expected that Brother Shan would actually book the Peony Courtyard!"
Lan Hua was speechless. She had just eaten a meal, but it had caused her a whole mess.
The Yinluo Sect is quite powerful now, and who knows what troubles might come knocking on their door in the future.
Dan Jiu shrank his neck and glanced at his lower body.
"I think it's best if we don't go down the mountain for a while. If we get caught by the experts from the Yinluo Sect, we'll probably die a terrible death!"
Zhou Yu completely agreed, "Indeed, it's safer inside the Pill God Palace. Those thieves won't come to the Pill God Palace to demand people!"
Zhou Yan'er asked curiously, "Since the Yinluo Sect is so evil, why don't the sects of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Central Region destroy it?"
After speaking, Zhou Yan'er glanced at her brother, seemingly unintentionally.
Zhou Yu gave an awkward smile.
However, Lan Hua was not thinking about the Yin Luo Sect at this moment, but about the final assessment after six months of study at the academy.
