"..." Mu Ye.

In order not to miss any information, Mu Ye decided to try every option.

After selecting 1, the woman immediately summoned two charming young ladies, both around thirty years of age.

One was skilled at the flute and named Chunxiao, while the other was skilled at the zither and named Qinyu. Furthermore, they were both well-endowed and possessed extremely high-level skills.

The two introduced themselves, both hailing from the Northwest region. They were quite tall and dressed in thin gauze, through which their graceful curves were faintly visible. Their expressions were alluring and affectionate, appearing seductive but not lewd, and their temperament was excellent.

"No wonder the Emperor likes this place too..."

After making the selection, one could choose to open a private room, select a musical score, and then listen to the two play.

As for whether things could go further, it depended on their willingness.

The two performed a duet with a wide repertoire, and Mu Ye randomly selected Peach Blossom Flowing Water.

After listening, he was left wanting more.

At this moment.

[Listened to a famous piece: Peach Blossom Flowing Water.]

[Miscellaneous Skills System activated, shared with other characters; in Real Mode, it is synchronized with the player.]

[Zither Art: 1/100]

"Huh, there's a Miscellaneous Skills system?"

Mu Ye was stunned. Good grief, there are quite a lot of things to grind in this game.

Come to think of it, in the Cultivation World, there are indeed cultivators like Zither Cultivators who specialize in music.

They are generally very rare, but they are all quite formidable.

Powerful musical cultivators can shatter souls with a single song or inspire battle with another, possessing both support and offensive capabilities.

"Then why didn't Tea Art, Wine Art, or anything like that activate when I was using the Demon Sealer before?"

"I drank plenty of famous teas at the Shen Mansion, too..."

"Uh... could it be that the Demon Sealer lacks artistic talent?"

"..."

Mu Ye pondered. So, this Brothel Patron specializes in these things, is that it?

At this time, Chunxiao's beautiful eyes shifted, and she spoke in a slightly magnetic, mature woman's voice:

"What does the young master think?"

[1. The song choice is good, but the performance was mediocre.]

[2. Peach Blossom Flowing Water is said to be composed based on the idea that peach blossoms falling into water have feelings, yet the flowing water remains heartless... Your performance lacks a touch of melancholy; it doesn't quite capture the essence.]

[3. ...]

Choosing 1, the two young ladies rise in anger and leave the room.

Choosing 2, the two young ladies' eyes sparkle with interest.

"I didn't expect the young master to be able to tell..."

"Since the young master feels it lacks the essence, would you like to hear something 'spicy'?"

"What is 'spicy'?"

"Food has its plain and spicy varieties, and music, naturally, is no different..." The two young ladies stand up, shedding their gauze robes. With lotus-like steps, they move before him, their eyes fixed on the man. Their delicate faces are slightly flushed, their every movement perfectly calculated.

The gauze robes are gone, leaving only their undergarments, short skirts, and the visible sight of their bodices.

"...It's this high-end?"

Mu Ye watches the two mature beauties beside him, using their bodies as the zither and flute to play Peach Blossom Flowing Water once more...

Although there was no real engagement, the tricks played were quite elaborate...

Then... the screen goes dark. When it reappears, the two young ladies are already slumped to the side, their beautiful eyes flushed as they gaze at him with infatuation. Their clothes are intact, though their skirts are heavily wrinkled, leaving it unclear what exactly transpired.

"?"

What is the meaning of this? This lousy game has censorship?

Where is the footage?

"Young master... you are truly amazing."

Chunxiao and Qinyu glance shyly at the Brothel Patron's palms, lowering their heads with blushes.

"..." Mu Ye.

He can clearly feel that the favorability of these two has reached a relatively high level.

As expected of a Brothel Patron.

But.

"No way, there's censorship even in a game?"

"How does one truly experience the local customs?"

Mu Ye logged off on the spot, immediately activated Real Mode, and went for another round.

There was no censorship this time, and all I can say is...

It was damn impressive.

The skills of this Brothel Patron were simply too strong.

In the snap of a finger, he turned the tables, applying what he had just learned on the spot to play a tune of his own. It left the two beauties with tears in their eyes, their bodies trembling uncontrollably from being moved.

"No wonder those menial disciples would save up every last Spirit Stone they had just to spend it at Tianxiang Pavilion in the market..."

Mu Ye finally understood the menial disciples of Qinghe Mine a little better.

Furthermore, this Brothel Patron had his artistic cells maxed out; his talent in this area was top-tier.

The downside was that his speed in cultivating secret martial arts was incredibly slow.

Well, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses.

Afterward, Mu Ye tried the remaining options one by one, experiencing the unique customs of this world.

If one chose 2 at the beginning, two beautiful young women of eighteen years would appear, and one would learn the art of chess.

Choosing 3 would grant skills in calligraphy and painting.

Choosing 4 led directly to hand-to-hand combat, followed by a notification that the favorability of Zuixiang Pavilion had increased... The woman would then surrender to the Brothel Patron's profound techniques, her heart fluttering, and she would decide not to charge him.

Upon asking, he learned that this woman was the head manager of Zuixiang Pavilion; she was not skilled in the arts, but skilled in combat.

After choosing 5, the woman would smile sweetly and say:

"There is one, of course. The only one who could compare to Sister Yuhe back in the day is Sister Yuanshuang now. Sister Yuanshuang excels in the way of calligraphy and painting; if you are not well-versed in this, you may have no fate with her."

To put it bluntly, his skills were insufficient.

Then he would just have to improve his skills.

Based on Mu Ye's intuition, this courtesan Yuanshuang was highly likely to have a connection to Yuhe from before, and thus be a key to information about the Seven Absolutes Demon.

Following the normal path, he would either have to improve his skills to gain Yuanshuang's favor and inquire about the information, or indulge in nightly revelry to "sleep-convince" Zuixiang Pavilion, raising its favorability until he could perhaps extract the information that way.

But Mu Ye wanted to try a different approach.

So, the next day, he switched to the Thief character and decided to pay a night visit to Zuixiang Pavilion.

It was night.

Mu Ye, dressed in a Night-Walking Suit, arrived at Zuixiang Pavilion.

However, an accident occurred just as he reached the backyard of Zuixiang Pavilion, preparing to sneak inside.

Mu Ye noticed three agile Men in Black also infiltrating Zuixiang Pavilion.

Fellow professionals?

Mu Ye was stunned. After a brief observation, he realized these individuals possessed extremely high-level skills, likely at least second-grade. The leader among them even had the strength of a third-grade or higher, and their movement techniques were bizarre—he had never seen them before.

They aren't from Taiping City.

Mu Ye's heart stirred. He had fought the experts of Taiping City and was naturally familiar with them.

Could they also be here to gather information on the Seven Absolutes Demon?

[1. Intervene.]

[2. Observe the situation.]

Mu Ye's heart stirred, and he chose 2.

Before long, the sounds of chaos erupted throughout Zuixiang Pavilion. Following the agonizing scream of a woman, each of the three Men in Black abducted a woman.

One of them wore a veil; her face was cold as ice yet pale, and her eyes were filled with fury.

They really are here to abduct people...

Could it be that they are truly here to scout for information on the Seven Absolutes Demon?

A sense of foreboding rose in Mu Ye's heart.

If that were the case, completing this second stage would be even more difficult.

No, no, reload and try again.

Intervene directly.

However, to Mu Ye's surprise, these three were incredibly strong. He couldn't defeat them in the Thief's normal mode?

Fortunately, after a few attempts, Mu Ye gained some understanding of the trio. The strongest one had the strength of a third-grade with four hundred apertures, while the other two were only second-grade.

Mu Ye switched to real mode, cast Light Body Technique on himself, and went straight for them.

With the enhancement of Light Body Technique and his own strength, he couldn't take down the third-grade, but he struck down the two second-grade Men in Black with two kicks of Wind King Leg.

"Wind King Leg? Who are you? If you have the guts, state your name!" Seeing his companions killed, the lead Man in Black was shocked and furious.

[1, I am your father.]

[2, We are all in the same line of work, what do you think?]

[3, ...]

Seeing this, Mu Ye did not choose, but instead let out a sinister cackle, then proudly declared:

"I am Feng Wuque of the Wind King Leg!"

Upon seeing this, the Man in Black stared fixedly at the latter:

"A fine Feng family, a fine Wind King Leg, Feng Wuque! This venerable one will remember you!"

Having said that, the Man in Black flashed away, quickly disappearing into the night...
