Chapter 523

At the deepest part of an inconspicuous alley, in front of a pavilion decorated with pink silk.

The carriage pulled by two monsters stopped on the open ground in front of the pavilion.

Nearby, seven or eight beast carts of similar size were also parked, all pulled by the same kind of two-horned, six-hoofed monsters. Even near some of the more luxuriously decorated beast carts, there were attendants, maids, and the like waiting there.

After Wang Yu followed Yan Lingxiang off the beast cart, he raised his head and glanced at the plaque hanging on the gate of the pavilion.

In the center of the plaque, the three characters "Soul Fragrance Residence" were written in gold powder.

And on both sides of the gate stood a burly man.

From deep within the gate, accompanied by a thick scent of rouge and powder, came the faint sound of young women's giggling.

"Senior Brother Yan, so this Soul Fragrance Residence is a place of pleasure." Wang Yu glanced at Yan Lingxiang, truly feeling a bit speechless.

"Haha, Wang Wang Shidi, no need to thank me. You and I are still considered young among Foundation Establishment cultivators. What's strange about coming to a place of pleasure? Don't you want to experience the style of exotic beauties?"

"The beauties in this Soul Fragrance Residence are almost the best in the Three Venerables Stone Workshop, and almost all of them are half-demons, which is very different from our human beauties." Yan Lingxiang patted Wang Yu on the shoulder, teased him with a smile, and then walked toward the gate.

"So it's Young Master Yan. You haven't been here for several years, and my mistress often talks about you." A man with black animal fur on his cheeks, upon seeing Yan Lingxiang clearly, immediately bowed with great joy. He was actually a half-demon.

"Ah Wu, so it's you. You were guarding the gate at Soul Fragrance Residence back then, and you're still guarding the gate now. Do you want me to mention a word to your mistress and arrange a better job for you?"

"Young Master Yan is joking. Being able to work for my mistress is Ah Wu's blessing. How could I have the qualifications to be picky? Who is this young master?" Ah Wu smiled honestly, and only then did his gaze look toward Wang Yu, asking with some hesitation.

"This is Wang Wang Shidi Wang. He is visiting the Three Venerables Stone Workshop for the first time. I brought him here because I have some things to ask your mistress. Lead the way for me." Yan Lingxiang said casually.

Wang Yu nodded slightly, and after habitually scanning the other party with his divine sense, his heart stirred.

He was actually unable to see the other party's cultivation level, as if there was something on the other party that shielded his aura.

"So Young Master Wang is also a high-level cultivator from the Green Water Palace. Since he is Young Master Yan's junior brother, he is naturally not an outsider. I will report to the mistress first, and then take the two of you to the inner courtyard." Ah Wu agreed without hesitation upon hearing this, then took out a communication talisman from his waist, whispered a few words, flicked his wrist, and the talisman flew into the gate.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yu could not help but glance at Yan Lingxiang beside him again.

It seems that the owner of this Soul Fragrance Residence is the good friend Yan Lingxiang spoke of. She is indeed a woman, and most likely a great beauty.

Yan Lingxiang turned a blind eye to the strange look from his junior brother Wang Yu, and instead led Wang Yu, swaggering into the gate.

The hall behind the gate was decorated with golden brilliance, palace lanterns were hung high, and there were more than a dozen tables of various sizes in the center, filled with delicious food. Beside the tables sat men and women, mostly one man accompanied by two or three women.

In the center surrounded by these tables, there was a small wooden platform, on which several women who still had charm were playing joyful tunes while holding pipa.

The guests sitting at the tables below included both white-haired old men and young boys with white teeth and red lips. Their auras also varied in height, seemingly including both low-rank Qi Refinement cultivators and Foundation Establishment cultivators, though the latter were slightly fewer, with only four or five in the entire hall.

Regardless of their age, the women beside these people were mostly beautiful, and these seemingly young women were dressed hotly, either in short skirts or just draped in a layer of light gauze, with figures either plump or petite, all exceptionally alluring.

What was even more noteworthy was that some of these young women had a furry tail exposed from their buttocks, some had pointed ears on their heads, and some had green pupils, which were clearly different from ordinary human beings in subtle places. They were indeed all half-demons.

"Isn't this Young Master Yan? You haven't been to Soul Fragrance Residence for a long time."

"Big Brother Yan, are you here to see our boss again this time? When will you come to accompany me?"

"Giggle, it's only been a few years, and Young Master Yan has become even more handsome. Do you want to stay in my room tonight?"

Those half-demon women, upon seeing Yan Lingxiang walk in, giggled and greeted him, not caring at all that the expressions of the men beside them had become unpleasant, and their gazes toward Yan Lingxiang became somewhat unkind.

"Haha, you little girls, you know I'm here to see your mistress, yet you dare to flirt with me. Aren't you afraid she'll peel your skin?" Yan Lingxiang laughed and replied, while releasing his powerful Foundation Establishment aura and shaking his sleeves, revealing the green water drop logo on them.

"It's a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

"It's a disciple of the Green Water Palace."

"I heard long ago that the backer of this Soul Fragrance Residence is an inner disciple of the Green Water Palace. It seems to be true."

The Qi Refinement cultivators in the hall changed their expressions upon seeing this and lowered their heads one after another. The few Foundation Establishment cultivators also showed expressions of dread and whispered to each other with moving lips.

In the Chaotic Spirit Domain, even in such a peripheral area where the Three Venerables Market is located, the name of the Green Water Palace is enough to suppress most cultivators of the same rank.

Yan Lingxiang did not care at all about what the cultivators in the hall were thinking. He and Wang Yu followed Ah Wu, bypassed the tables in the hall, and walked into a small door behind the hall.

The two walked through a small, quiet garden and arrived in front of an independent small courtyard.

Only then did Ah Wu stop, bow, and say loudly to the inside:

"Mistress, Young Master Yan and Young Master Wang have arrived."

"Since you have brought the people, you can go down and continue your work." A leisurely, pleasant female voice came from the courtyard, like the sound of nature, making people linger and not want to leave after hearing it.

"Yes, Mistress. Two young masters, please go ahead. Ah Wu will take his leave first." The half-demon man agreed and turned to leave without hesitation.

In front of the small courtyard, only Yan Lingxiang and Wang Yu were left.

"Enemy, why don't you bring the guests in? Could it be that you want me to invite you?" The female voice in the courtyard was still as pleasant, but the tone suddenly became a bit resentful.

This made Wang Yu stunned upon hearing it.

Yan Lingxiang gave a wry smile but still walked into the small courtyard obediently.

Wang Yu rubbed his chin and followed in with curiosity.

Bypassing a small rockery in the center of the courtyard, one could see a perfect female back standing in front of a wing room, almost as perfect as any man could imagine.

As soon as the woman heard the sound of their footsteps approaching, she slowly turned around.

As soon as Wang Yu saw the woman's face clearly, his expression changed drastically, and he was horrified in his heart. ===== CHAPTER 524 =====
