Chapter 1465 – She is Not Her

The teleportation process through the portals did not require a detailed explanation. The only thing that surprised Qin Yu was its efficiency and stability. The whole process was fast and quiet, and basically it would not give the slightest discomfort. There was a high probability that normal people could use these portals as well. From this, it could be seen that the Desolate Area had amazing achievements when it came to portals. It was obvious that a lot of energy and effort had been spent in this regard.

This made Qin Yu think about the large number of ordinary people that he saw in the city just now, and the doubts in his heart became heavier and heavier. Stepping out of the portal after Hundred Saint revealed his identity, they turned and walked into another portal.

When they stepped out of the portal once more, there was a powerful aura in the air. Qin Yu’s heart trembled slightly.

Obviously, there was an extremely powerful Forbidden Array that was set up where the portal door was located. It was enough to make Qin Yu feel shocked from its terrifying power.

Hu –

Hundred Saint exhaled with a smile on his face. He turned around and said, “Darkness Ruler, now we have truly stepped into the prosperous area of the West Desolate.”

Qin Yu nodded his head slowly, “The Desolate Area truly lives up to its reputation!”

He was not being sarcastic at all.

In the small fifth-tier city that Hundred Saint mentioned before, there was a Half-Saint that guarded the city. Now, in this big city, even under the Forbidden Array, he could feel dozens of streaks of terrifying energy in the air.

Among them, the most obscure streak of energy was almost undetectable and ignored. However, it was strong, very strong!

It even gave Qin Yu the same feeling he felt when he first faced the Darkness Ruler..that is to say, the person giving off this aura was at the very least a low-level Ruler. At best, that person would be a true Ruler.

Rulers were like legendary figures in the Vast Brightness, but now he easily encountered them in any random city.

Even though he already knew how terrifying the Desolate Area was, he could not help but feel a little shock in his heart at that moment.

Hundred Saint seemed to notice Qin Yu’s silence and could guess what he was feeling at this point. He smiled and said, “Although we’re not in the most powerful city in the West Desolate, this city is still top-tier. Naturally, there will be very strong cultivators ruling here.”

He did not say much because even though he wanted to form a good relationship with Qin Yu, from the West Desolate’s standpoint, he still subconsciously hoped that Qin Yu could feel more fear and reverence for the West Desolate.

This way, Qin Yu would be more aware of his position and avoid any reckless, impulsive, and inappropriate actions on his part in the future.

Qin Yu nodded, “Have we arrived yet?”

Hundred Saint replied, “Not yet, but we only need to cross one more portal before we reach the capital.”

After a pause, Hundred Saint smiled and continued, “This big city is known as Seascape City. Of course there is no sea here, so I have always been very puzzled as to why it has such a name. But this is not important, what’s important is that the lords that guard Seascape City have some old relations with my family. It would be rude if I did not pay them a visit.”

Qin Yu replied, “If time permits, I do not mind waiting.”

Hundred Saint smiled and said, “I won’t delay our journey for too long. Please come along with me, Darkness Ruler.”

Sure enough, as Qin Yu had guessed, Hundred Saint had an extraordinary status. His family had a large business in Seascape City.

Some people say that there are two oldest occupations in the world – one is a thief, and the other is a prostitute..we won’t think about whether this is correct or not, but Qin Yu felt slightly strange because the place he was brought to was a brothel.

Under the eager leadership of the boss, they passed through the lively courtyard that sat by a large lake.

Dozens of courtyards with different styles that exuded a noble and luxurious atmosphere were located on the shore. In between them were weeping willows that were being blown by the breeze and their branches swayed gently, like countless soul-stirring beauties.

There was a loud knock on the courtyard door. Lady Yun, who had just fallen asleep not long ago, stood up with exhaustion. She was wondering which lecher had to wake her up in the day, but even then she put a sweet smile on her face and ordered her maid to open the door.

Outside the door, she could see her boss whose face had a smile and was full of respect. Behind him were two young men who were quite eye-catching, causing Lady Yun to be shocked. She lamented to herself that the innocence she had tried to maintain for many years would probably be destroyed today.

Although she had expected that such a day would come, for two people to arrive at once..Lady Yun smiled bitterly and could not help but feel a little nervous and apprehensive.

However, these two young men were people that even the boss needed to curry favor with, so what more could she do as just a weak woman? She felt resigned.

“Yun Qing greets the two young masters. I’ve already prepared some hot water and tea, please come inside to wash away the dust and fatigue of your journey.” Her voice was very sweet and pleasing to the ears. Most importantly, there was no hint of flattery, which made people feel comfortable inside.

Hundred Saint looked at the boss, his eyes filled with satisfaction. He turned around and said, “Darkness..cough, please take a break here. I will be back before sunset. If you need anything, just let the boss know.”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left. His eyes swept over Qin Yu; although he could not see his expression underneath the black robes, his slightly-tensed body obviously showed he did not expect something like this to happen..this guy is actually nervous, is he still a virgin?

There were people in this world who loved beauties more than anything else, but there were also people who only knew how to cultivate and lived like ascetics.

The corner of Hundred Saint’s mouth twitched, feeling that in one respect, he was much more powerful than the Darkness Ruler. Then, with this strange sense of superiority, he disappeared into the lake.

Lady Yun got up and let out a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was a little disappointed internally. As someone who worked in the entertainment industry, naturally she was rather observant. She could tell that the one who just left was the most important person.

But on the surface, she did not reveal the slightest bit of what she was feeling. Since the one who left had prepared such a guest, obviously this guest would not be ordinary either.

“Sir, this way please.”

Under the black robes, Qin Yu took a deep breath and stepped into the courtyard. He could hear the door closing behind him and the fragrance of the room filled his mouth and nose. Taking a breath, his mind wandered unknowingly. He could feel heat being generated in his body, spreading outwards to his limbs.

All the way, the maid was in front while Lady Yun followed by his side. Qin Yu suppressed every desire to glance at the lady beside him.

Even though Hundred Saint had a lot of intentions to curry favor with Qin Yu, since it was his first time in the Desolate Area, he did not know anything so he had to be cautious. However, the first place that they went to after entering the Desolate Area was actually a brothel..Qin Yu could not help but feel a little weird inside.

Just a little weird though, because he still felt taken aback, and he did not have energy to overthink the situation.

From the outside, the small courtyard did not look old-fashioned at all. After entering, one could really understand how original and ingenious the interior was! Every corner was decorated exquisitely – nothing was too outstanding, but overall, it gave a comfortable feeling.

Entering and taking a seat, Qin Yu was still wearing a black robe that covered his entire body. However, the people in the entertainment industry were well-informed and knowledgeable, having met every kind of quirky guest before. Back then, there was a soldier from the army who was fully clothed when he physically fought with one of the ladies from the brothel on the bed.

Although she was stabbed and blood was splattered all over her body on that day, she also received generous rewards. It was a deed that had been circulated far and wide in the industry, and she was admired by many newcomers. The reward that she had received was enough to make these newcomers shudder.

Therefore, it did not matter whether guests were eccentric or not. On the contrary, the more eccentric guests were, the more they were welcomed in the building. After all, only the strong and capable could stand their ground against such guests.

It could probably be explained as: with great risk comes great reward!

This black-robed guest in front of her seemed to be very powerful.

She thought for a while, before ordering her maid to bring some hot water. Even after being sent away by Qin Yu’s wave of a hand, she still smiled while she offered some tea to him.

“Since you have come for entertainment, you should relax. This tea is excellent, and we only pour it for distinguished guests. You must drink it while it’s hot, if not it will be a waste of this good tea.”

Lady Yun looked at the black-robed guest while she talked. She did not know if she was seeing things, but from the beginning, she could feel that a large part of the other party’s attention had been on her. Whatever it was, his eyes were full of self-restraint.

Lady Yun was always confident in her own intuition, and past experiences had proved that this confidence was well-deserved.

Could it be that this black-robed weirdo had taken a fancy to her? What if he wanted to do ‘that’ with her? What was she going to do if that happened?

Refuse? Judging from the attitude of her boss just now, she was afraid that this person also had powerful origins. If she offended him, she would definitely suffer afterwards.

But if she let him do whatever he wanted, she would no longer have the right to stay in this small courtyard. She would lose her status.

historical

Lady Yun racked her brains, but she realized that she could only go with the flow. As for what would happen in the end..she could only hope that the other party would not be too ruthless. She deserved some sort of explanation.

These thoughts caused sourness and anxiety between her eyebrows. With her beauty, it instantly made her more likable.

Ladies from the entertainment industry naturally had their own skills in handling the psychology of men.

Unfortunately, her superb acting did not capture Qin Yu’s heart at all, let alone stir his thoughts.

Under the black robe, a low voice suddenly sounded, “Get all of them to leave.”

Lady Yun was slightly startled and her face became a little paler. She could only think to herself ‘I’m finished! This time, I’ve met with such a straightforward thug!’

Even if he had any ideas, he should at least drink some wine, sing some songs and look at each other for a while before getting under the red quilt together.

Such thugs were unable to grasp the concept of tenderness. They viewed women to be below themselves, and even describing them as ‘heartless’ was not enough.

Thinking that her innocence, which she had maintained for many years, would be destroyed in the hands of such a thug, Lady Yun felt extremely miserable.

But as was said before, she did not dare to refuse as the outcome might be even worse. She forced a smile, waved her hand, and said, “Leave, all of you. I will serve this young master myself.”

The maids all looked worried but they did not dare to say anything and left.

After the door closed, now there were only the two of them in the room.

There was no movement, and only silence under the black robes. Lady Yun, who was waiting for her nightmare to start, glanced at him in surprise, wondering what the thug was intending to do. Could it be that he wanted her to take the initiative?!

Biting her lip, Lady Yun whispered, “Young master, why don’t I go and make a few dishes so we can eat and drink together to get rid of your exhaustion? Or, does young master wish to get a good rest now?”

She was careful, frightened, and bitter.

Under the black robes, Qin Yu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Sure enough, they only looked alike. She was not her.

When he saw Lady Yun in the garden, Qin Yu felt as if he was struck by lightning. He lost his composure for a while, which was why he was laughed at by Hundred Saint.

But in fact, it was just a brothel – why would he be affected by that? The real reason why he was tense was because this lady looked almost like Feature.

No, to be more precise, both of them seem to have come from the same mold!

That was why Qin Yu looked so tense. Now that everybody had left them and there were just two of them in the room, he used his senses to ensure that there was no surveillance aura. Lady Yun still looked like that, which meant that she was not Feature.
