Chapter 152: Chapter 33: Iron-faced Sword Immortal! Beautiful Master?

“Welcome, True Inheritor Zhou!”

Qiao Beiming stepped aside to reveal the prepared sedan chair, personally lifting the curtain to invite Zhou Chen aboard.

Zhou Chen did not stand on ceremony and sat directly inside.

A sedan chair carried by four people, all of whom were martial artists at the Body Refining Third Layer: not only swift, but smooth and powerful.

It’s undeniable that authority is a wonderful thing.

And in this Extraordinary World, cultivation strength is the greatest authority.

…

Yunmeng Tower.

The largest restaurant in Yunmeng City, renowned far and wide, though very expensive, attracting only the wealthy or noble, known as one of Yunmeng City’s three Gold-devouring Caves.

The other two Gold-devouring Caves are the Drunken Dream Tower and Yunxian Pavilion, both comparable to Celestial Immortal Tower’s brothel.

Which man hasn’t walked in and left completely drained, wallet empty, nothing remaining?

Zhou Chen arrived, and Qiao Beiming had already reserved the best private room. Moreover, when Yunmeng Tower heard it was hosting Zhou Chen, the shopkeeper was extremely enthusiastic.

The Cyan Cloud Sect dominates both Cyan Cloud and Yunmeng Prefectures, and Zhou Chen is currently the sect’s scorching prodigy, a genius with boundless prospects!

“Welcome, True Inheritor Zhou, your visit graces our humble establishment with immense honor!”

The shopkeeper, with a fortunate demeanor, extended his belly, boasting a cultivation at Body Refining Ninth Layer, his face full of smiles and fawning.

“The shopkeeper is too kind!”

Zhou Chen, as if he were a leader inspecting a locale, arrived at the top-floor private suite surrounded by Qiao Beiming and others.

Zhou Chen took the main seat unhesitatingly.

As he sat, wine and dishes were quickly served, and the private suite was soon filled with a variety of wine scents and meat aromas.

Yunmeng Tower is beside Yunmeng Marsh, so it’s renowned for its various seafood dishes.

The first dish was Yunmeng Tower’s signature live fish soup.

Live fish soup used the unique Red Dragon Carp found only in Yunmeng Marsh.

This is a spirit fish, valued at one hundred taels per fish, not only with delicious meat but rich in nutrients that enhance a martial artist’s physique, on par with spirit elixirs.

The key to live fish soup lies in the word ’live’, swiftly scaling and gutting the live Red Dragon Carp before tossing it into warm water.

Because of the fast knife skills, even though the fish lacked organs, it still had a breath left and would swim endlessly in the water.

As the water temperature rose, flower petals and five-spice seasonings were added: the fish swam, flowers opened, the fish stilled, the soup perfected, aroma overflowing, extremely tender and delicious.

“Not bad!”

Zhou Chen unceremoniously began eating.

It must be said Yunmeng Tower’s chefs were skilled indeed; various spirit fish, spirit eels, and spirit shrimp were made with great taste and appearance, opening up one’s appetite.

At this time.

Two stunning women gracefully entered, bowing to Zhou Chen:

“We, Yun Qing (Feng Wu), pay respects to True Inheritor Zhou!”

“True Inheritor Zhou, these two are top courtesans from Drunken Dream Tower, especially invited to serve the young master,” Qiao Beiming explained.

“Very thoughtful!”

Zhou Chen nodded, looking at the two beauties:

“No need for formalities!”

“Thank you, True Inheritor Zhou!”

The two gracefully approached Zhou Chen from both sides to attend to him, a faint fragrance drifting into his nostrils, accompanied by fine wine and food, making one feel entirely comfortable.

After wine and food, Qiao Beiming invited Zhou Chen to rest at Drunken Dream Tower.

The hospitality was hard to refuse, Zhou Chen saw it was getting late and embraced the two beauties, sitting in the sedan chair to proceed to Drunken Dream Tower, examining the tower’s level.

How does it compare to Cyan Cloud City’s Celestial Immortal Tower or Flame Dragon City’s Dragon Phoenix Pavilion?

Inside Drunken Dream Tower.

Looking at dozens of beauties before him, Zhou Chen felt stirred; it seemed the name of him besting ten was well-known.

Zhou Chen selected more than ten he liked to keep for a thorough inspection one by one.

…

The sounds of gasping in Drunken Dream Tower lasted until dawn when the candles automatically extinguished, and tranquility slowly returned.

Qiao Beiming sat at the bedside, ignoring the two attending women beside him, gazing at the gradually rising sun outside, feeling joyful.

There was a sense of a great mountain leaving his heart, light and at ease.

Due to the matters in Qinghe City, he hadn’t slept well for one night in the past two years, fearing that Zhou Chen might come to seek revenge on a whim.

Although he bore no grudge against Zhou Chen, Bai Guinong, Bai Shikang, and the Squad Leader of the Qinghe Branch were all his Salt Gang’s people.

Now it’s finally completely resolved.

Though this hosting cost a lot, up to ten thousand taels, it was of little concern to him, wholly worth it.

Qiao Beiming dressed neatly and got up.

He didn’t know when Zhou Chen would wake, but he certainly should be up earlier than Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen did not sleep till noon, directly getting up from bed.

He donned his clothes, striding steadily out of the room.

In the room, more than ten Drunken Dream Tower girls lay scattered, bodies drenched in fragrant sweat, with faces of contentment, deeply asleep.

“Good morning, True Inheritor Zhou!”

Qiao Beiming, who had been waiting for a while, immediately stepped forward, smiling, “I have prepared breakfast, True Inheritor Zhou, this way please!”

“Alright!”

After enjoying breakfast attended by a few beauties, Zhou Chen rose to bid farewell.

“Gang Leader Qiao, thank you for the hospitality, I have business to attend to, farewell!”

“Since True Inheritor Zhou has matters, I daren’t hold you back; you are always welcome to visit!”

Qiao Beiming escorted Zhou Chen out.

Just as they stepped out, a man approached Zhou Chen briskly, clearly waiting for him for a long time.

“I am Jia Zhen, a steward of Cyan Cloud Sect, greetings Senior Brother Zhou!”

“Is there something on your mind?”

Zhou Chen scrutinized the man before him with inquiry.

“Senior Brother Zhou, the Sect Leader sent a message about an urgent matter seeking you.”

Jia Zhen said, “Having heard of Senior Brother Zhou’s news yesterday, I’ve already sent word back, so the Sect Leader’s message should arrive shortly!”

“Sect Leader seeks me?”

Zhou Chen pondered, could it be about the Flame Dragon Valley matter?

Swish!

Zhou Chen sensed a sword light rushing swiftly towards him, landing before him in the blink of an eye, revealing the cold and stunning figure of Qing Yuyao.

“Sect Leader!”

“I am Qiao Beiming, greetings Sect Leader Qing!”
