Jia Hu and the others made their way into an alley.
To steady his men, Jia Hu said to several of his subordinates, "Damn it, I must've failed to check the almanac before leaving home today and kicked an iron plate. Tonight, I'll take you brothers to a brothel and let you have a good time."
"Boss is mighty!"
The burly men were all overjoyed when they heard this.
That night.
At the brothel's entrance.
Jia Hu and several burly men were cursed at and kicked out of the brothel by several courtesans, led by the madam. "Damn you! I didn't charge you earlier, and you really thought I was afraid of a few petty ruffians like you? Who would've thought you'd be this useless now? Hurry up and get the hell out!"
Back to the main point.
After sending Jia Hu and the others packing, Nangong Xinran turned toward Li Zhōujūn with a smile. "Xinran arrived late and caused the Mountain God to suffer a fright."
Even through his bamboo hat, Li Zhōujūn could feel Nangong Xinran's fiery gaze roaming over him.
Li Zhōujūn was helpless. "It's nothing. I still have to thank you for stepping in, Miss."
Before Nangong Xinran could speak, Li Zhōujūn directly asked Nangong Anran, "Why are the three of you here?"
Nangong Anran replied respectfully, "Mountain God, we three sisters are currently heading to the Guanhai Mountain Secret Realm, which is about to open, to seek opportunities and strive for that sliver of a chance to break through to the Void Immortal realm. We happened to be passing by."
"Guanhai Mountain?" Li Zhōujūn was slightly stunned.
He began pondering the information he knew about Guanhai Mountain.
It was said that Guanhai Mountain had once been the site of a great sect in ancient times.
