After witnessing Progenitor Chen's Reverse Step, Lu Yin did not want to miss out on this wondrous battle technique no matter what.
In his current battle, he could only rely on his physical body to increase his speed or a secret technique like the Plan Secret Art. He was missing a footwork battle technique, so Reverse Step was perfect, but his chances of finding one were slim.
There was a loud boom as a small auction house nearby exploded. Several figures flew out and landed on the street, fighting in the blink of an eye.
Qian Zou was astonished. "They actually dare to fight on the streets of Sky Bearing City? Looks like they have some background."
Lu Yin looked at the people fighting on the street and saw that they were clearly split into two groups: three on one side and six on the other. Although the numbers were not equal, they were evenly matched. The side with fewer people was slightly older.
"Beat them up! I'll take responsibility if you kill the Young Master." A handsome youth walked out from the broken auction house. He seemed to be dressed as a man, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was a woman and was quite good-looking.
On the side with fewer people, a man pushed aside the two people he was fighting. Seven lined battle force covered his body as he punched at the crossdresser. The crossdresser did not care as there were more people rushing forward to block the attack.
Bang!
The man punched away the youth in front of the crossdresser. Seven lined battle force was something that very few youths in the younger generation could grasp. One of them spat out blood and fainted, while the other pulled the crossdresser back and glared at the man. "Do you know who she is?
If you hurt her, even ten lives won't be enough to pay for it. "
The man sneered. "Then do you know who I am?
Shameless boasting. "
The battle was intense, but the people around them did not leave. Instead, they cheered as if they were watching a show. This sort of thing did not happen often in Sky Bearing City. Fighting was forbidden within the city, so the city guards were about to arrive.
As they spoke, the guards had already arrived. They reacted extremely quickly. The leader was a man with a scar on his face. His face was weathered, and his gaze was fierce. "Sky Bearing City doesn't allow fighting. Don't you know the rules?"
The scarred man's gaze swept over both sides.
Qian Zou introduced, "Seventh Bro, this person is the captain of Sky Bearing City's guards. People call him Uncle Blade. Apparently, the wound on his face was left behind by King Qing. King Qing did not kill him, so he stayed in Sky Bearing City to repay his life."
Lu Yin took a sip of his tea. With a power level of over 400,000, he was practically invincible in the Outerverse. Even in the Innerverse, someone with such a power level could become a powerhouse in a small flowzone. For example, Northgate Taisui and Lu Yin's power levels were about the same.
The man said, "We know the rules. We're willing to pay half of the compensation."
"Yes, all of them," said the cross-dressing young man.
The man was furious, and he glared at her. "You were the ones who attacked first. We're already willing to bear half of the cost because we don't want to cause trouble. Don't look for trouble. My Crimson Rainbow Great Realm is not a place to be trifled with."
Many people cried out in alarm. The Crimson Rainbow Great World?
The Crimson Rainbow Realm?
That was one of the Three Thousand Great Worlds. He had heard of it before. Among the Three Thousand Great Worlds, there were very few that had Envoys. The Radiance Great World, the Jade Jade Great World, and the Crimson Rainbow Great World also had Envoys.
Lu Yin had always paid attention to the Three Thousand Great Worlds. Some of them were very weak, and a single drop of the Life Poison could wipe them out. However, some were terrifyingly strong. For example, when Mu En had brought him to the Realm Mountains for the first time, they had encountered a card that even Mu En had not dared to touch. Lu Yin had looked up some information, but there were no records of that card's world.
Three Thousand Great Worlds
Although the Great Worlds were part of the Glory Realm, they seemed to be independent as well.
After becoming a director, Lu Yin had looked up some information on the Three Thousand Great Worlds. The records were rather old, and even the Hall of Honor found it difficult to completely analyze the situation of the Three Thousand Great Worlds.
Among them, some Great Worlds had become weaker and weaker, while some Great Worlds had developed beyond expectations.
Regardless, the records stated that there were no more than ten Envoys in the Three Thousand Great Worlds.
"You're from the Crimson Great World's Yan Zhu?" Uncle Blade was astonished, and he looked at the three men seriously. These three were not very strong.
The man politely replied, "We're the Yan Crown Prince's retainers. We came to Sky Bearing City to find some defensive treasures for the Crown Prince."
"So you're from Yan Chen's side. No wonder you're so arrogant." The one who spoke was the cross-dressing youth.
When they heard this, the three retainers' expressions changed. Someone who knew Yan Chen's name and was able to say it out loud had to have a powerful background. "You are?"
The one who had been injured hurriedly replied, "This is Miss Xi Shuang."
Scar and the retainers were shocked, "The Hall of Honor's expeditionary army commander's granddaughter, Xi Shuang?"
In the distance, Qian Zou sneered, "They're all acquaintances. The universe is so big, and there aren't many places that can gather all of them together. Sky Bearing City can do it."
Lu Yin looked at Xi Shuang. So she was Xi Gu's granddaughter. This was interesting.
Now that both sides had revealed their identities, there was no need to continue arguing. Whether it was Sky Bearing City, Crimson Rainbow Great World, or the expeditionary army, they all had Envoys. Not long after, the commotion died down.
Lu Yin stood up, "Let's go."
"Where are we going?" Qian Zou was curious.
"Follow," Lu Yin said, his gaze never leaving Xi Shuang.
The Hall of Honor's expeditionary army had once helped Cong Ying deal with the giants under his command. If Chen Huang hadn't broken through to become an Envoy, they would have been wiped out, and Lu Yin would have suffered great losses. Although Cong Ying had been removed from her position, Xi Gu hadn't suffered any losses. Lu Yin had always kept this matter in mind, and now that he had finally met Xi Gu's granddaughter, he had to have a chat.
There were many interesting places in Sky Bearing City. Although the streets were crowded, there was no lack of scenic spots.
Lu Yin and Qian Zou followed Xi Shuang's group for half a day, visiting many of Sky Bearing City's sceneries. When the sky was dark, they followed Xi Shuang to a brothel.
Lu Yin was speechless when he saw the brothel in front of him. Why was this woman here?
Qian Zou's eyes lit up; he was in high spirits. Xi Shuang was in high spirits.
"Seventh Bro, they're going in," Qian Zou reminded and urged.
Lu Yin's expression was calm as he stepped into the brothel.
A brothel wasn't a place to sell one's body. This place focused on relaxing one's mind, and there was a reason why so many people were attracted here. Everything else aside, the women here were the most beautiful. Even the ordinary maids were enough to make many people forget to leave.
Xi Shuang was received by the brothel the moment she entered. News of her identity had already spread to the brothel, or perhaps the brothel had already known about it.
"Young Master Xi, I've heard a lot about you." The brothel treated Xi Shuang the same way she treated other men, and she wasn't surprised that a woman had arrived.
Xi Shuang was satisfied, "You are?"
"I'm Qing Yun, the brothel's courtesan. I'm here to receive Young Master Xi.
Is there a girl you've taken a fancy to?
I'll make the arrangements right away. "Qing Yun smiled gently. She was also beautiful, and even though she was old, she still retained her charm. In the eyes of many, she was more attractive than some other young girls.
Xi Shuang raised her head, "Since I'm here, I'll naturally look for the courtesan. With my status, only the courtesan can receive me."
Qing Yun was troubled, "Young Master Xi, the courtesan is currently serving Young City Lord Qingyu and can't leave. How about I make an appointment for tomorrow?
Tomorrow, she'll specifically serve you. "
Xi Shuang didn't mind, "I don't need her to serve me. I just want to see how beautiful this courtesan is. Hurry up and have her come out for me."
Qing Yun was troubled, "Young Master Xi, this …" At this moment, a girl hurried over to Qing Yun and whispered. Qing Yun was shocked, and anger flashed through her eyes. She didn't entertain Xi Shuang and quickly walked into the depths of the brothel.
Xi Shuang followed along with interest, and Lu Yin naturally followed as well.
Soon after, they arrived at a courtyard in the brothel, where a panicked voice came from within, "Young Master Qing, my brothel only sells my skills, not my body. Please don't be like this."
"Sell your skills, not your body?
Bah, slut, you act pure in front of me, but when you talk about Lu Yin, the Shangqing, and the others, your eyes light up. If they were here tonight, you would've already taken off your clothes and served me. Am I any worse than them?
Get over here! "
The courtesan, Qing Yun, angrily charged in and waved her hand to push Qing Yu aside. She glared at him, "Young Master Qing, you should know the rules of my brothel. No matter who it is, they only sell their skills and not their bodies. If you like Luomei and she likes you back, you can redeem her and marry her. But if you want to use force, please go back."
The commotion was rather loud, and quite a few people were attracted over.
Qing Yu had clearly drunk too much, and he sneered, "What's so great about your brothel? You're just a bunch of sluts. Don't even think about leaving after coming to Sky Bearing City today." He then pointed at Qing Yun, "You, all of you, I'm going to make your entire brothel serve me naked today! Hahahaha!"
Qing Yun was furious and clenched her fists, "Young Master Qing, you're drunk."
Qing Yu sneered, "What, if you have the ability to get that Emissary behind you to come out?
Don't think that I don't know that the person behind your brothel is the Old Man. That old man didn't even dare to fart because of Lu Yin, and all of the experts under him were killed. Your brothel doesn't even have an Emissary behind you anymore. You bunch of sluts still want to act all high and mighty like before. If I tell you to strip, then you'll strip. "
Xi Shuang frowned and looked at Qing Yu, "Your mouth stinks. All men are like that. Disgusting."
The courtesan, Luomei, hurriedly ran behind Qing Yun and glared at Qing Yu.
Qing Yu's words were heard by quite a few people, and they now looked at the brothel girls in a different light. In the past, the brothel had been one of the more powerful organizations in the Neoverse, and they had been backed by the Old Man and an Emissary. Because of the black street, the Old Man had held an extremely high position among the directors, and no one dared to offend him. Thus, the brothel was treated as a guest of honor wherever they went, and no one dared to use force against them.
However, things were different now. The Old Man had been crippled, and an Emissary expert had not appeared in a long time. He must have been killed by Lu Yin, so there was no need for the brothel to care about them anymore.
"Everyone, the brothel needs to change its rules today. All the talk about selling your skills and not your body is bullshit. From now on, all the women in the brothel have to strip naked and receive me. Don't you all agree?" Qing Yu shouted. The more sullen he had been when he was with Yao Hong, the more indulgent he was now.
Quite a few people laughed in agreement, "Yes, the young city lord is right. We'll have to strip naked and receive you in the future."
"Strip naked and receive you in the future, haha!"
