"I don't know," Ye Fan shrugged. "If you really care that much, you can get a wig later."
"Alright," Shan Ji sighed regretfully and pulled Xiang Jiao Jun to leave. "Big Brother, Big Sister, Xiang Jiao and I are going out for a bit."
"Where are you going?" Xiao Mo Nu turned around, curious.
"Of course, to the bro— to just wander around, just wander around…" Shan Ji said guiltily.
"I heard you. You're planning to sneak off to a brothel, aren't you?" Xiao Mo Nu stared intently at Shan Ji.
"Big Sister, I was wrong!" Shan Ji immediately cowered and knelt on the ground. "I'll never dare to again…"
Ye Fan covered his face…
He couldn't stand it anymore…
This guy was completely embarrassing Zhu Que…
"To a brothel?" Xiang Jiao Jun looked at Shan Ji in confusion. "We didn't mention that just now, did we?"
"Alright, get up," Xiao Mo Nu said with a smile. "I didn't say you couldn't go. I just wanted to say you don't have any money on you."
As she spoke, Xiao Mo Nu tossed a ring over.
"Thank you, Big Sister!" Shan Ji sprang up and grabbed the ring. "Big Sister, you are the sun in my heart, you are my light!"
Shan Ji flattered her and then pulled Xiang Jiao Jun and ran out.
"What are their current cultivation realms?" Ye Fan asked casually, watching their retreating figures.
"Da Ji is at the cusp of Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation. Da Xiang Jiao is at the fifth level of Nascent Soul," Xiao Mo Nu sighed with emotion. "As expected of descendants of a supremely powerful bloodline, their speed is simply terrifying!"
"Their bloodlines must be too dilute, or not fully awakened," Ye Fan replied. "Otherwise, they'd be far beyond this level. Ascending directly wouldn't even be impossible."
"That powerful?" Xiao Mo Nu was instantly astonished.
"That's how powerful they are," Ye Fan nodded. "Ascension is just basic stuff for their identity."
Two minutes later.
"The child has grown up and knows to go to brothels now."
Xiao Mo Nu blurted out this sentence out of nowhere.
Ye Fan: ???
"Ye Fan, were you jealous just now?" Xiao Mo Nu then turned her head and looked at Ye Fan with a smile.
"You're quite ill," Ye Fan reached out and covered Xiao Mo Nu's forehead. "Do you want me to get you some medicine?"
"You were definitely jealous, hehe," Xiao Mo Nu grabbed Ye Fan's hand. "Since no one else is home anyway, why don't we have some fun?"
"…"
After leaving the courtyard, Shan Ji hailed a beast-drawn carriage.
"At your fastest speed, take me to the nearest brothel!"
"Shan Ji…" Xiang Jiao Jun said, sitting in the carriage with a terribly distressed expression. "If you want to go, you go by yourself. I don't need to go, right…"
Thinking of brothels, Xiang Jiao Jun thought of women.
The moment he thought of women, it stirred up some dark and damp memories…
"Brother Jiao!" Shan Ji looked at Xiang Jiao Jun earnestly. "I know what you're afraid of, but you're wrong to be like this!"
Xiang Jiao Jun blinked in bewilderment…
"We are cultivators now, right?" Shan Ji explained. "If you keep avoiding it like this, it will eventually become a heart demon! You don't need me to tell you what a heart demon is, right?"
Xiang Jiao Jun's expression changed upon hearing this!
He had read about heart demons in books and had asked Xiao Mo Nu about them.
No matter how high your cultivation, if you can't overcome this hurdle, you're doomed!
At this moment, Xiang Jiao Jun finally realized the seriousness of the issue!
"So, Brother Jiao, what you need to do is not to escape, but to face it bravely!" Shan Ji said righteously. "The best way to solve a problem is to face it directly and defeat it!"
"Brother, thank you!" Xiang Jiao Jun thanked him sincerely. "If you hadn't reminded me in time, I would have almost gone astray!"
After all, the earlier a heart demon is resolved, the easier it is and the less harm it causes.
"What are we brothers being polite for!" Shan Ji said as a matter of course. "Good brothers, forever!"
For the rest of the journey, Shan Ji was restlessly excited.
His long-held dream was finally about to be realized, and he couldn't suppress this excitement!
Although Xiang Jiao Jun had come to terms with it, he still felt a bit apprehensive at the thought of facing it…
After all, those dark memories were too terrifying, and his young spirit had been deeply wounded…
Before long, the beast-drawn carriage stopped in front of a brothel.
"Daoist friend, actually, the girls at this place are a bit subpar," the driver recommended enthusiastically. "I know another place not far from here, where the girls are top-notch!"
"No need," Shan Ji, who was not picky, paid the fare and got out of the carriage with Xiang Jiao Jun.
"So impatient, as if he's never touched a woman in his life…" the driver grumbled softly and drove away.
The madam stood at the entrance, idly watching the passersby.
A brothel had recently opened nearby, which had made her already not-so-good business even worse.
Not only were fewer customers coming, but the quality was also declining.
Look, two scruffy bald men were walking over.
It was bad enough that their clothes were shabby, but they were also dressed messily.
The key thing was that these two guys looked like simpletons…
"Madam, find me your best girls!" Shan Ji said excitedly as he stepped forward.
"Of course, we have girls," the madam said, eyeing Shan Ji suspiciously. "Daoist friend, is this your first time here…"
Shan Ji understood immediately and pulled out a pile of spirit stones from his ring. "I have plenty of money, hurry up, I'm in a hurry!"
He took out at least twenty spirit stones, most of them mid-grade and high-grade!
No choice.
So many people had given heads to Xiao Mo Nu before, so money was not a problem…
The madam's eyes lit up with joy. "Daoist friend, you've come to the right place. Our girls are the best in the area!"
Her most expensive full package service only cost a few hundred low-grade spirit stones. Shan Ji's offering was more than enough!
After arranging a private room, the madam quickly found six girls.
"Daoist friend, these are our best," the madam said politely with a smile. "Daoist friend, please enjoy yourself. Call me if you need anything."
"Wait!" Shan Ji called out as the madam was about to leave.
"Daoist friend, are you… not satisfied?" the madam's heart skipped a beat. "Shall I get you another batch?"
"Are these few girls enough for anything?" Shan Ji said with displeasure. "Keep looking, at least ten!"
"Alright!" the madam breathed a sigh of relief.
"And," Shan Ji pointed at Xiang Jiao Jun. "Take good care of my brother here too, and you'll be paid well!"
Before long, the madam led ten girls and Shan Ji to the door of a large room.
Well…
It was the largest room in this brothel, capable of accommodating up to twenty people.
She had originally intended to arrange for Shan Ji to have a meal first, but Shan Ji couldn't wait…
To be honest, the ten girls' looks were only average.
But Shan Ji was not picky now…
Good heavens, his eyes were already red!
