Chapter 110 - This Place Is Very Safe

On the other hand, Liu Yuan and Ling Yu walked towards Yuelai Inn together.

Ling Yu finally recovered from her confused state and curiously asked Liu Yuan how he passed through the Shu road.

However, Liu Yuan really did not know any secret trick. He tried many times in the game and fell to his death countless times. Did that count?

Including the conquering strategy, there were many times when he had to repeatedly try. For example, Shen Sifan’s strategy was basically through battle. If it was not for the fact that he could be reborn in the game and the strategy could be repeated, he would never have been able to defeat Shen Sifan.

Just like that, he did not know how many times he had died before he managed to get Shen Sifan.

No one in the world would be able to understand how he did it…

Liu Yuan pondered for a while and said, “Actually, there’s nothing special about that. What I’m good at is movement and quick reflexes. I don’t want to say this, but when it comes to running away, you might not be able to catch up to my speed.”

Ling Yu was stunned for a moment and could not help but smile. Liu Yuan continued to put on a serious look and said, “Especially the Shu Dao, it tests one’s courage. It’s easy to shoot an arrow on flat ground, but once you stand on a cliff, the fear of death can easily defeat you. You can’t even pick up a weapon. There’s great horror between life and death. As long as you can defeat the fear in yourself, Shu Dao is not as difficult as the rumors say.”

Liu Yuan chose the Chicken Soup for the Soul.

After all, this kind of thing could no longer be explained by Xianxia. Only by ‘believing in your heart is your magic’ or shouting ‘we are the tails of the fairies’ could it be considered more reasonable.

When he explained to the Sword Pavilion Master, he used the same excuse. Zuo Youhuai was very impressed with him and even thought of him as a close friend. He said that this was exactly the same as the original intention of the Shu Road trial.

Who the hell knows what your Sword Pavilion is thinking?!

However, when Duan Lanruo handed her City Lord Token to Liu Yuan, Zuo Youhuai did not object. Instead, he even showed a gratified expression. This showed that he admired Liu Yuan and had the intention to recruit him.

Hearing this, Ling Yu revealed a thoughtful expression, as if she had been inspired, and said, “Cultivation, cultivation of the heart, cultivation of the Dao, you are right.”

You… you get it? You really comprehended it?

This was very Xianxia.

Liu Yuan was speechless as he looked at Ling Yu’s expression of understanding. The latter’s expression suddenly changed, and she said, “Daoist Jiang Feng’s words have enlightened me greatly, and I’m surprised that my cultivation level has loosened up.”

Liu Yuan, “??? You’re loosening up very casually!”

However, Ling Yu had clearly sensed the opportunity for a breakthrough. She said with a serious expression, “It seems that I need to find a place to calm my heart and comprehend. I think I will definitely be able to cross this small cultivation realm. Thank you for your help, Fellow Daoist.”

After she finished speaking, she bowed to Liu Yuan very seriously and then immediately left in a hurry.

Liu Yuan’s expression was subtle as he watched her leave.

This…

Was this what a true Immortal cultivator was like?

Before he could finish his sentence, he instantly understood. In comparison, he, a transmigrator had cheated with an experience scroll. He was the true junior in this case.

Liu Yuan shook his head. Just as he was about to return to the inn, he suddenly saw that the Inkstone Tower was right next to him.

As mentioned earlier, this Inkstone Tower was the largest brothel in the City of Ten Thousand Swords. Behind it was the gray organization, Green Centipede.

He could clearly see the elegant and quiet buildings around him, which were one level higher than the Qingping Residence in the city.

The brothels in the City of Ten Thousand Swords were naturally not ordinary brothels… The most terrifying thing about Green Centipede was that they could even reduce Immortal cultivators to song and dance, but no Righteous sect had come to eradicate them.

In fact, there had been such operations in the history of Shangyang, but they had all disappeared. It was evident how great their influence and strength were.

When Liu Yuan noticed the Inkstone Tower, it was not because he had a sudden idea to have some fun…

If he still wanted to go to the brothel in this hellish place, then he would die. There was no way to stop him.

Instead, he saw a familiar figure flash past in one of the private rooms on the third floor of the Inkstone Tower.

“…Zhiying?”

Liu Yuan even suspected that he had been too worried recently and his eyes were blurry.

He was still using the Mirror Moon Jade, but he had not seen Zhiying recently.

Liu Yuan did not think too much about it before. After all, Zhiying’s concealment ability was simply unparalleled. As long as the spell was still in effect, it meant that there was no problem.

Moreover, her mission, on the surface, was to protect Liu Yuan and give him a gift. Basically, there would not be any problems.

But now, why did Zhiying appear in the Inkstone Tower?

Is this child turning to prostitution at such a young age?

If she’s like this at such a young age, what will she become when she grows up?

Liu Yuan felt that he had to educate this child on love. He had to show this child what a father’s love was like a mountain.

Just as he was about to enter the Inkstone Tower and beat up his uneducated child, he suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice.

“Mr. Junxuan, please come to the inner hall of the Inkstone Tower. The City Lord is already waiting.”

Liu Yuan instantly determined the direction, and without changing his expression, he followed the direction that he had been facing and walked toward the Inkstone Tower.

Duan Lanruo had previously said that she would find someone to contact him before discussing in detail. She did not expect that it would actually be in the Inkstone Tower.

What a coincidence… He was just about to go in and get Zhiying out.

Liu Yuan was not unfamiliar with Inkstone Tower. After all, when he saw such a scene in the game, he definitely had to go in and take a look. Even if it was a game for all ages, there were some interesting things to see.

As soon as he entered, he was greeted by a maidservant. It was obvious that she had been instructed to bring him into the inner hall.

Speaking of which, Ye Cike had sent someone to keep an eye on him, but according to Ye Cike’s impression, he should be loyal to her and keep himself pure. He should not even bother with other women…

He chose a straightforward approach to conquer a tsundere girl, and with the help of the Xuanyang Pearl, he finally achieved the final result.

Therefore, the more he pretended to be a bad person, the less suspicious he would be.

For example, the ambiguous relationship between him and Hu Jiuniang was enough to make Ye Cike rule out the correct option.

Moreover, he had acted so righteously at the city gate, but now he was visiting a brothel. In Ye Cike’s eyes, he looked more like a hypocrite.

‘Could it be because of this reason that Duan Lanruo had set the meeting place to be in the Inkstone Tower?’ Liu Yuan pondered to himself.

The maidservant in front walked through the long corridor and gently lifted the beaded curtains layer by layer. Finally, she stopped and made an inviting gesture. As expected, Duan Lanruo, whom he had just met not long ago, was sitting in the inner hall.

In the middle of the inner hall was a gilded furnace with a beast’s head. Incense was lit, and the tables and chairs were all extremely gorgeous.

The woman had changed into a loose peacock-blue dress that looked like a cheongsam. Her full and white chest was exposed, and a pair of beautiful snow-white legs could be vaguely seen under the light gauze.

Beside her stood a woman in pitch-black clothes, with half a wooden mask on her face.

Duan Lanruo’s expression brightened when she saw Liu Yuan. She walked over to him and pulled his hand to make him sit down. She touched his cheek and said softly, “Don’t worry, that maidservant is also my secret guard. Everyone here is my own people, so it’s very safe.”
