The entire Ten Mile Brothel Street.
Over a hundred courtesans in red and green faced off against a dozen terrifying Black Knights.
For a time, the atmosphere was terrifyingly silent.
Thud, thud, thud.
The sound of footsteps pounding down the stairs came from Yan Hua Lou. Then Old Madam Zhao strode over the threshold with her hands on her hips.
A cigarette dangled from her lips as she raised her chin and curled her mouth. "Who the hell are you? Think you're so great just because you're on horseback?"
Old Madam Zhao took several steps forward, pointing repeatedly. "Think you're so great just because you've got a blade? What, bullying our Young Master Gu?"
Gu Xiao remained expressionless and grabbed Old Madam Zhao's arm to stop her.
Then he kept gesturing with his mouth toward the burly man with a saber who had been hacked to death.
Old Madam Zhao shot him a sidelong glance. "Dead bastard, getting drunk in front of my Yan Hua Lou. What a buzzkill!"
Then.
Old Madam Zhao shook free of Gu Xiao's grip and headed toward the Black Knights. "All of you are leaking black smoke from head to toe. Just how weak are your kidneys?"
Swish!
A cold flash of steel gleamed.
The leading Black Knight raised his blade and brought it down!
Blood sprayed more than a meter into the air from Old Madam Zhao's chest. Her eyes widened, and she collapsed with a thud!
Ah.
Ah.
Terrified screams rang out one after another. The hundred or so girls behind her had finally come to their senses!
"Murder!"
"T6 is invading!"
No one cared anymore about who this Young Master Gu was. The girls lifted their skirts and fled for their lives in blind panic!
Gu Xiao stood frozen on the spot.
