Forcible Abduction

Yan Zhuixing and Man Hu exchanged a glance. It seemed that Hu Yuntian, relying on his father's backing, had done similar things quite often, and he was quite efficient at it.

The servant was speechless. The Third Young Master of Yun Palace was not someone he could afford to offend, but the front seats were already full, and he couldn't very well kick someone out! Besides, everyone who could come here to spend money was someone with some background, and none of them were people he could afford to offend. He immediately put on a mournful face and said, "Senior Hu, the front seats are full."

Hu Yuntian's face darkened. He was used to being domineering and arrogant, and there were very few people in the world who dared to provoke him. Now, a mere pimp dared to disrespect him. He stared coldly at the pimp, and a murderous aura seemed to emanate from his body.

Those inside the hall, suddenly sensing murderous intent, jolted awake and turned to look in unison. Anyone who could afford to spend 100,000 high-grade Spirit Stones to sit and play here was somewhat knowledgeable and recognized who it was at a glance. Since Hu Changshou's son was causing trouble, no one dared to say anything. However, the Hundred Charm Demoness remained calm and composed, continuing to play her zither and sing...

"Brother Hu," Man Hu said from the side, "He has no right to make decisions, so why make things difficult for him?" He then glanced around and said, "This is the territory of the Treasure Gathering Basin. Even if you don't give Senior Niu face, you shouldn't make Senior Yin look bad."

Hu Yuntian glanced at him, his killing intent vanishing. He snorted coldly and sat down in the empty seat. Man Hu and Yan Zhuixing followed suit. The pimp thanked them repeatedly and quickly left. A short while later, he brought three more girls to keep the guests company, and the food and wine on the table were all served.

Despite the three girls' Yan Huan remarks, the three guests seemed uninterested, their attention fixed on the Hundred Charm Demoness singing and playing music in the center of the hall. In fact, not only at this table, but the girls accompanying guests at other tables were also met with the same cold shoulder. The Hundred Charm Demoness had undoubtedly become the most beautiful woman present, stealing the limelight from the other girls of Spring Sleep Tower.

Even Man Hu, who wasn't particularly interested in women, couldn't help but secretly admire how alluring this woman was, possessing an irresistible charm that captivated men. He glanced at Yan Zhuixing, only to notice his gaze lingering on the singer, as if he were deep in thought. He couldn't help but whisper, "What's wrong?"

Yan Zhuixing replied telepathically, "I've seen this woman before in Hundred Flower Valley. She was the former Palace Master of the Illusion Demon Palace, known as Hundred Charm Demoness. Ye Qun seems to be her real name."

Man Hu asked in surprise, "Is she the leader of that Crimson Powder Sect? Why would she come here and openly show her face? Is she tired of living?"

"I don't know, I imagine not many people around here know her." Yan Zhuixing squinted and said, "But there are rumors that she is Yue Qianchou's lover."

Man Hu nodded slightly, glanced at Hu Yuntian beside him, and continued to transmit his voice, "This guy brought us here, I'm afraid he has no good intentions. His actions just now might have been intentional. Although I persuaded him to stop, he might still take the opportunity to cause trouble later."

Yan Zhuixing asked, somewhat puzzled, "Isn't he afraid of breaking the rules of the Treasure Gathering Basin by causing trouble here? Besides, this place is related to Niu Youde. Does he dare to offend Niu Youde?"

"Rules are made according to the people involved, and they can bind most people, but Yin Baikang's rules don't apply to people like us." Man Hu said with some worry, "I suspect that he caused trouble to lure Niu Youde out so that you could meet him. I'm afraid there's more to this than meets the eye. Hu Changshou invited Master, and now he's invited us here. The father and son have probably already discussed how to deal with this. We need to be careful."

Yan Zhuixing nodded slightly without speaking, her gaze sweeping coldly over Hu Yuntian, a fleeting hint of murderous intent flashing across her face...

As the song "Laughing in the Mortal World" ended, cheers erupted throughout the hall. The Hundred Charm Demoness slowly stood up, bowed gracefully to the crowd, and said with a charming smile, "Thank you all for coming to support me. That concludes today's performance. I will sing for you again tomorrow." With that, she stepped off the stage, intending to leave.

Not to mention her seductive manner as she walked, her hot and alluring figure was incredibly eye-catching. A chorus of boos erupted around them, and Hu Yuntian suddenly stood up and shouted, "Wait!" He flashed forward and blocked Hundred Charm Demoness's path, his gaze sweeping over her body without restraint. He chuckled and said, "Such beauty is too much of a waste to use for singing. Come with me!" He reached out and grabbed her arm.

The Hundred Charm Demoness subtly shifted her body, causing the other's hand to miss its target, and chuckled, "I won't sing for money, but I also won't sell my body!"

The onlookers sitting in a circle around them shook their heads and thought it was a pity. Since Hu Yuntian had taken a liking to this woman, it would probably be difficult for her to stay with him.

"I'm not asking you to sell yourself, I'm just asking you to come with me." Hu Yuntian reached out and touched her face again.

The Hundred Charm Demoness giggled and dodged the question, asking, "Why should I go with you?"

Hu Yuntian laughed and said, "As long as you come with me, I guarantee you'll enjoy life to the fullest and never have to sing for money again."

"That won't do. I don't want to be kept by someone. I prefer to earn my own living." Hundred Charm Demoness took two steps back and bowed slightly. She stopped arguing with him and flashed to the outside of the circle where they were sitting, heading towards a long corridor.

"That's not up to you." Hu Yuntian's face darkened, and he teleported away again, blocking her way. He sneered, "You're coming with me today, whether you like it or not. I advise you to be sensible and not make me resort to violence against a delicate beauty like you."

"Could it be that our esteemed guest is unaware that this is Master Yan's Spring Sleep Tower?" the Hundred Charm Demoness asked with a smile.

"I'm only being polite to you out of respect for Master Yan; otherwise, I wouldn't be wasting my breath on you." Hu Yuntian said in a deep voice, "I'm giving you one last chance. Just come with me obediently! Don't force me to take action."

"You're asking too much, esteemed guest. I sell my art, not my body. Farewell!" Hundred Charm Demoness said with a faint smile as she stepped aside and walked away from him.

"You still want to leave?" Hu Yuntian sneered, quickly grabbing at the other person's half-naked shoulder with one hand. But when he reached out, he found that he had grabbed nothing; the person in front of him was just an illusion, and the True Person was already several meters away.

They started fighting! A group of people clicked their tongues in amazement, thinking that this was going to be interesting, and wondered if the people behind Spring Sleep Tower would show up.

Yan Zhuixing and Man Hu exchanged a glance, revealing an expression of certainty; this guy really wanted to cause trouble.

Hu Yuntian exclaimed "Huh!" His cultivation was clearly superior to his opponent's, yet he had failed. He teleported away again, reaching out to grab, only to find he had once more grasped empty air, again only an illusion. Now he was furious. His figure flashed repeatedly, chasing after each of the opponent's figures...

The sounds of "bang, bang" continued, and holes appeared in the walls on both sides. It turned out that the number of figures on the other side was increasing, the phantoms almost filling half the corridor, making it impossible to distinguish the real from the fake. The onlookers were in an uproar; they never expected that a singing girl from Spring Sleep Tower would possess such skillful Movement Method ...

In the backyard of Spring Sleep Tower, Lou Yanqing and Yan Yu were chatting away, occasionally letting out soft laughter. Wen Lanfeng stood to the side, seemingly eavesdropping on their conversation, a smile frequently appearing on his face, clearly enjoying the situation. Nong Zhu, on the other hand, was wandering around the courtyard with her hands behind her back, her expression somewhat unpleasant.

The sudden sounds of fighting Spring Sleep Tower startled the four of them, causing them to turn around in unison. Just then, a pimp rushed in, glanced at the other three, and then anxiously reported to Yan Yu, "Master, Hu Yuntian from the Cloud Palace has taken a liking to Miss Ye Qun and wants to take her away. But Miss Ye insists on performing but not selling her body, which has angered Hu Yuntian, and the two have already started fighting. Master, you must go and see!"

"Hu Changshou's son is really getting more and more successful; he's even managed to snatch someone from a brothel," Nong Zhu mocked.

"Ye Qun?" Lou Yanqing turned to Yan Yu and asked, "Is that the person who sings at Spring Sleep Tower?"

"Indeed." Yan Yu bowed to the group and said, "Please wait a moment, seniors, I'll go take a look."

"I'll go with you!" Lou Yanqing said. She already had a good impression of Ye Qun because she heard that Ye Qun insisted on performing but not selling her body, and since Ye Qun played and sang beautifully on the piano, she wanted to get to know her.

Yan Yu was delighted to hear this. With Lou Yanqing accompanying her, she really didn't need to be afraid of the people from Yun Palace.

"I'll go!" Wen Lanfeng spoke up from the side, his brows furrowing. "That kind of place isn't suitable for you. I'll go check it out." Although he didn't want to go to a place like Spring Sleep Tower either, he was even more unwilling for Lou Yanqing to go. As soon as he finished speaking, he vanished from the spot...

Hu Yuntian made several attacks, but found he couldn't catch his opponent no matter what he did. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he became somewhat embarrassed and enraged. It was true he liked women, but he wasn't the kind of person driven by lust. His reason for doing this, as Man Hu had predicted, was to lure Niu Youde out to meet Yan Zhuixing. Given his status, women were a minor matter compared to the loss of face for Yun Palace. For a moment, he even harbored murderous intent and prepared to ruthlessly destroy the woman.

"Hey! Have you guys noticed that this woman's Movement Method are somewhat similar to Mr. Nongzhu's 'Great Shifting Form Technique' from the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest?" someone asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Man Hu shook his head slightly. He had witnessed Ziyi's Great Shifting Form Technique at the Blade Drawing Tournament. Although it was somewhat similar to this woman's, this Movement Method was far inferior to the Great Shifting Form Technique. Yan Zhuixing transmitted his voice, "This should be the Illusionary Great Law of the former Illusion Demon Palace."

As Man Hu nodded in agreement, he suddenly paused for a moment and said, "Hu Yuntian is about to kill me."

Hundred Charm Demoness naturally sensed it too, and a sense of panic immediately rose in her heart. Given the opponent's abilities, once they got serious, her current Movement Method wouldn't be enough to stop them. She was now regretting her actions; she hadn't expected that with Niu Youde backing up Spring Sleep Tower, someone would dare to resort to force. If she had known this, she shouldn't have shown her face.

Just as she was wondering where to escape, a sudden commotion erupted in the lobby, followed by an eerie silence. Someone murmured indifferently, "Hu Changshou's son is really getting more and more ambitious; he's even trying to kidnap someone from a brothel."

Wen Lanfeng, with his long hair cascading down his shoulders and his tall figure standing with his hands behind his back, appeared at the entrance of the corridor at some unknown time. He directly borrowed Nong Zhu's words.
