Chapter 6: Monster Bus and Rouge Society

In the morning, he was in a hurry to close the meat shop and deal with those perverted customers, so although he stepped out of the courtyard door, he didn't take a good look at the outside world.

At this moment, he took a serious look, originally expecting to see the scenes in the city he had imagined: dirty streets, alleys, low wooden houses, commoners like walking corpses in rags, etc.

In fact, the blurry scenes in the original body's memory were indeed like this.

However, what entered his eyes at this moment were completely different scenes that made him quite dumbfounded:

Both sides of this old street were still blue-tiled wooden houses, cloth banners, buns, and fireworks, but when he raised his eyes to look higher, he soon saw buildings of various styles, all towering high, or strange buildings.

Although the height and number of floors couldn't compare to the modern society of his past life, the types and styles were much more complex.

Li Yu only swept a glance and saw palace buildings of more than ten stories, giant trees made of bronze, ancient temples located on the tops of high buildings, stone Guanyin statues sitting abruptly in the city, huge neon signs...

If one looked even more carefully, one would find that there were details such as gears, steam pipes, metal rails, etc., in various places of these "wonders."

And even more astonishing were the flying objects slowly ascending in various places.

Mechanical airships!

Steam floor ships!

Things that seemed to only appear in novels, movies, and other works of his past life had crashed into his eyes so fiercely.

At this moment, Li Yu had a feeling of being in a different world, and scenes of several cities from his past life emerged in his mind.

At the same time, he remembered the bronze reporting chicken in his own courtyard.

Seeming to have realized something, he recalled some conversations between Jiao Qing and Sun Sun Sanniang:

"The Tiangong Sect's things are too terrifying. In just these few years, Wanfu City has changed so much that we don't even recognize it."

"Not just Wanfu City? I heard the outside world is the same, unable to resist this trend, and huge changes have occurred everywhere."

"The Tiangong Sect is expanding like this; can the other five orthodox god sects stand it?"

"Of course they can't stand it. Except for the south of the Li Kingdom, which is their base and has no waves, other realms, especially the Qian and Jing countries, have launched expulsions against the Tiangong Sect, and have completely banned Tiangong Sect 【Missionaries】 from entering."

"Since it's an orthodox god sect, I imagine this Tiangong Sect also masters some kind of god's path and has relevant cultivation methods."

"If there is a chance, I might as well peek and see if it's suitable for me."

Li Yu muttered in his heart while walking hurriedly towards his destination.

He came from modern society and had a strong sense of déjà vu for the trend set off by the Tiangong Sect, and of course, he understood that generally, in such changes, actively accepting new forces would be more promising.

Moreover, compared to the strange and disgusting cultivation methods of the Forbidden God path Meat-Person, the style of the Tiangong Sect was obviously much better.

Unfortunately, the original body's parents either missed the "Meat-Person" or missed the "Sword Hero," and had no memory of the Tiangong Sect's god path and secret medicine formula, not even knowing a single sequence name.

Between appreciation and complaining, Li Yu walked out of the old street, bypassed several alleys and old streets.

Very quickly, the front suddenly opened up.

The new realm he had just stepped into had a much stronger commercial atmosphere, and whether it was the buildings on the street or the pedestrians on the road, they were exceptionally fashionable.

This was the main street of Tianji Workshop, one of the eight major workshops in the South District.

There were various high-rise buildings on both sides, and all kinds of shops were endless, colorful, and winding.

Copper pipes were embedded outside the blue brick walls, occasionally seeing some steam valves, and what hung under the eaves were no longer lanterns or banner cloth signs, but neon lamp tubes of various colors, various fancy fonts, making people dazzled.

The fireworks dissipated, and the liveliness exceeded imagination.

The shouting sounds from some buildings also made Li Yu feel quite absurd.

Looking at the appearance, it looked like a brothel, with endless seductive sounds, which he thought must be the so-called Xiaohun Club that Sun Sun Sanniang hated deeply.

And very quickly, the thing that truly attracted his attention appeared.

Accompanied by the roar of steam and the sound of sharp claws scratching, a large red and black shadow rushed past Li Yu's face.

A monster?

Or a means of transportation?

Even if he saw it with his own eyes, Li Yu couldn't describe it well.

Its appearance looked like a combination of a bus and a giant spider, with eight sharp claws covered in flesh and fur, but the core was clearly mechanical, carrying the bus and blasting out streams of blood-red steam, completely avoiding other pedestrians on the street, driving towards nowhere like a ghost.

The remaining exhaust smelled like a mixture of fresh blood and kerosene.

Li Yu saw clearly that inside the bus, there were more than a dozen passengers in different clothes, sitting indifferently, and a few even held newspapers and books, reading.

"That's the Tiangong Sect's steam bus?"

"The fare is two taels of silver, and you can ride it to tour the city for a day?"

Li Yu muttered again, and his gaze also looked towards the end of the street.

There were guard posts, benches, street lamps, and a memorial archway, with a few large characters written on it: Tianji Workshop Stop.

At this moment, quite a few evil cultivators were gathering there, as if waiting for the next monster bus.

Li Yu, who still had more than ten taels of silver, was immediately moved.

However, he quickly suppressed it.

He was unfamiliar with the place, so he couldn't take risks, and the city tour would be postponed.

Besides, his destination for this business was on this main street, just a few steps away, so there was no need to waste another two taels of silver.

As the thought fell, Li Yu had already mixed into the increasingly crowded crowd.

While implicitly observing the people around him, he walked hurriedly to a gorgeous shop that seemed to have just opened not far from the main street.

The shop was huge, with both a neon archway and an ancient plaque.

Nishang Rouge Shop!

This shop was a popular shop on the main street.

Although it had just opened early in the morning, many women had already entered to pick out rouge and various cosmetics.

From their clothing, one could also get a glimpse of the complexity of the customs in the South District of Wanfu City.

Whether it was skirts like cheongsams that highlighted the figure, rich silk and satin, thin gauze that was faintly visible, or ancient and simple wide-sleeved robes, everything was available.

And what made Li Yu feel that he hadn't found the wrong place was that among the female guests who patronized, a small number were Transcendents.

The appetite perception of the forbidden egg wouldn't be wrong.

In his mind, the fragmented account book information recorded by Sun Sun Sanniang emerged to prove it:

"Bought a box of beauty cream, ten taels of silver. After using most of it, the old lady didn't become beautiful at all. It's a dead liar again. If it weren't for the rumor that this shop is backed by the 【Rouge Society】, a hegemon of Tianji Workshop, the old lady would have smashed her shop."

"Bought another box of slimming rouge, twenty taels of silver. Used it all up, not a single bit of effect... This time finally told me that my meat is poisonous, offsetting the medicinal effect? The old lady doesn't believe a word of it, won't be fooled again."

"Sold a bucket of 【Unenviable Sheep Blood】 to Nishang Rouge Shop, got fifty taels of silver. Hehe, the old lady is very satisfied."

"Sold ten more beauty skins to Nishang Rouge Shop, got three hundred taels of silver. Refreshing."

"Worked hard to save one hundred fat-absorbing and worm-cleansing strips, sold to Rouge Shop, got five hundred taels of silver... This group of bitches is indeed the Rouge Society. It is said that their president recently successfully ascended to Sequence 7 and is already planning to open a branch in the neighboring Hehe Workshop. Heh, not afraid of having their chests hammered flat."

From this information, it was not difficult to see that this Nishang Rouge Shop belonged to an organization in Tianji Workshop called the Rouge Society.

The women in this organization were all female Transcendents. Their cultivation method was temporarily unknown, and their profit method was: it should be providing various normal and abnormal beauty treatments for the women of Tianji Workshop, and even the South District.

For this reason, they often purchased relevant strange items.

Sun Sun Sanniang was once one of their raw material suppliers.

Li Yu's trip this time was to sell that "activated blood intestine." This rouge shop was the first place he chose, and also the place most likely to offer a high price.

As for this shop being disgusting and strange?

In fact, Li Yu had already selected more than one potential buyer last night.

Comparing them, this Nishang Rouge Shop was already the most harmless among them.

Li Yu originally wanted to consider it again, but after waiting for this moment, he clearly felt that his originally slightly bulging belly had become flat again, and was turning towards a depression.

Clearly, the forbidden egg was about to finish digesting that terrible breakfast.

If he continued to delay, he would face that life-and-death predicament again.

"Dog-shit thing, I'll clean you up sooner or later."

=9+Book_Bar

Li Yu's face turned cold, and he spat.

Then he didn't hesitate anymore, completely ignoring the strange gazes cast by the women buying rouge, and came to the shop, stepping over the threshold.

A sloppy youth suddenly coming to a shop full of female guests was naturally eye-catching.

Even if Li Yu was considered handsome, what kind of beautiful skin hadn't those who could open a rouge shop on the main street of Tianji Workshop seen?

If he were the kind of rich young master who looked like he had strong spending power, he might have been greeted with a smiling face.

Unfortunately, he looked poor, his smell wasn't very good, and the gloomy and evil aura of the Son of the Forbidden God hadn't dissipated.

As soon as he entered the shop, he immediately made the women frown.

Several beautiful and enchanting female servers frowned and came up to drive Li Yu away.

He didn't care, skipping all the women and the dazzling array of rouge, various beauty products, and looked directly at a middle-aged beautiful woman behind the counter.

This woman was beautiful, with a tear mole under her left eye.

She was wearing a wide robe made of red silk, and inside, one could faintly see a whole set of small clothes like lace underwear from his past life, setting off her proud figure even more temptingly.

Even if there were dozens of beautiful women in this shop.

But as long as anyone entered, they would look at her first and develop unspeakable fantasy desires, a true stunner.

Of course, Li Yu was different.

He didn't want to pounce on this woman; in his eyes, this beautiful woman was a potential big buyer, a large amount of white, shiny silver.

"Hong Gu, real name unknown, manager of Nishang Rouge Shop, one of the high-level members of the evil cultivator organization 【Rouge Society】 in Tianji Workshop."

"Although I don't know what her god's path is, Sun Sun Sanniang had long ago inquired that this woman had already ascended to Sequence 8 a few years ago, and her combat methods were extraordinary."

Li Yu recalled these while directly opening his mouth to the Hong Niang:

"Manager Hong!"

"I am Sun Sun Sanniang's son, and I came here to sell you something good."

"This thing can suck out excess grease and fat, as well as poisonous blood that hinders beauty... The most critical thing is that it is alive and can be kept as a pet, feeding on those filthy flesh and blood, without needing to feed anything else. If raised well, it can continue to evolve and possess more beauty-enhancing strange powers."

When Li Yu finished speaking, all the female guests in the rouge shop had their eyes light up.

After finishing, everyone's breathing was rapid, their faces full of the words "I want it."

The gazes towards Li Yu no longer had a trace of disgust or rejection, but were full of heat.

This was very reasonable!

Don't look at the fact that everyone in the shop was a beauty.

But not a single one was original.

Almost all reached the beauty level through the transcendent methods provided by the 【Rouge Society】.

Of course, their identities were also not simple, and they had the financial resources to support these.

Precisely because of this, they couldn't resist the "temptation" given by Li Yu.

A transcendent pet that can enhance beauty?

As long as it's someone who loves beauty, regardless of gender, they can't resist.

Although they were all concerned that this was the territory of the Rouge Society, this good thing was right in front of them, and soon one or two female guests with great backgrounds couldn't help but open their mouths:

"Handsome little brother, you actually have such a good thing? Hurry up and take it out for sister to see."

"Good brother, don't listen to her, come to sister's side..."

The second person to greet Li Yu was an imperial-sister-style beautiful woman with a large chest, snow-white skin, and a tall stature.

In his past life, Li Yu loved this style, and his footsteps subconsciously moved a bit.

It was just that before he really moved and answered, a charming voice sounded in the shop:

"Huh, Sun Sanniang's rough embryo could actually give birth to such a handsome son?"

"But since it's Sun Sanniang's instruction, good child, you should follow auntie."

Before the words fell, Li Yu felt half of his body fall into a warm embrace.

His arm rubbed against the soft silk and the lace underneath, and the extraordinary touch made him follow the owner of the embrace towards the back room of the shop involuntarily.

Needless to say!

The person who came was Hong Gu.

It should be said that this beautiful woman was worthy of being a person who was smooth and slick, and after snatching Li Yu, she didn't rush to complete the transaction.

Instead, while holding him and walking forward, she smiled charmingly at the female guests around:

"Sisters, don't be impatient!"

"That Sun Sun Sanniang is indeed one of the suppliers of my rouge shop, only in the past she didn't mention that she still mastered such strange things."

"Whether it's true or false, Hong Gu will know after testing."

"If it truly has such miraculous effects, my Rouge Society will definitely raise it well, striving to let every sister have such a pet."

These words were spoken, and no one could pick out any flaws.

The female guests relied heavily on the Rouge Society to maintain their beauty, so naturally, they wouldn't easily offend them.

It was Li Yu!

After hearing this, he couldn't help but feel guilty.

That blood intestine!

To be precise, it was the rotten intestine pulled out from Sun Sun Sanniang's belly.

It was true that it had beauty-enhancing effects, and it was also true that it could be a pet.

But if he really took it out, I'm afraid every female guest in the shop would vomit, let alone happily buying it as a pet.
