Chapter 32 You Are a Gentleman
"That's just a rumor. In fact, there are not many prisoners held in the Demon Suppression Department's prison."

Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "Those serious criminals are either executed after their time is up or transferred to the capital. They are rarely kept in the local prison."

Gu Mingchuan was a little surprised and said, "I heard that the prison of the Demon Suppression Department is an extremely mysterious place. It has nine floors. The lower the prisoners are, the more terrifying their strength is. There are even peerless masters in the Shenzang realm and even the Faxiang realm."

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "It is true that the prison of the Demon Suppression Department has nine floors. Maybe it has imprisoned powerful people in the Dharma Image Realm in the past, but now, the bottom is already empty."

Gu Mingchuan said puzzledly, "If that's the case, why go to so much trouble to build a nine-story prison? Isn't that a waste?"

"That prison existed in the previous dynasty. It was said to be built by Emperor Shang. This insane emperor wanted to wipe out all the noble families and sects in the world. He built this kind of prison in every state. Some difficult-to-kill beings were suppressed on the ninth floor."

When Gu Mingchuan heard this, his eyelids twitched.

Could it be that Pan Shaotang’s master was suppressed on the ninth level by Emperor Shang of the previous dynasty?
Doesn't that mean that it is an old monster that has lived for more than five hundred years?

Xiao Yu continued, "But that's just a legend. I've been to the ninth level of the prison. There were only a few corpses there, no one there."

no one?

Gu Mingchuan's eyelids twitched again.

Pan Shaotang didn't say that.

Who of these two people is lying?

……

Finally, we arrived at Jiangzhou City.

When the caravan entered the city, a guard saw Xiaoyu, his face suddenly changed, and he quickly went to report to his superiors.

Then, they found a reason to detain the guards guarding the city.

About half an hour later, when Cui Lie was extremely anxious, he saw a black horse in the city galloping towards the city gate like a black lightning.

"Uu——"

A young man jumped off his horse.

"Is it him? The eldest son of the Xue family!"

Cui Lie recognized the person at first sight and was shocked.

He was a businessman, and although he didn't know all the important people in Jiangzhou City, he had a general idea of ​​them.

The Xue family is one of the top families in Jiangzhou City.

He is at a level that the Huo family cannot even get close to.

The backers behind the Huo family are just small characters in front of the Xue family.

The eldest son of the Xue family is also the eldest son of the Xue family and the future head of the family.

Why is the eldest son of the Xue family here?

When Cui Lie was shocked, he saw Master Xue landing beside a carriage. His face darkened and he scolded, "Little sister, you sneaked out of the city this time. Do you know how worried mother is about you?"

Little sister?

When Cui Lie heard this name, his head buzzed.

It turns out that the beautiful girl wearing the Demon Suppression Division uniform is actually the daughter of the Xue family?

It is said that she was the most beloved jewel in the Xue family and was known as one of the four beauties in Jiangzhou.

The carriage door was pushed open, Xue Ruoyu's eyes were red, tears were dripping down, and she sobbed, "I... I almost never saw you again this time... and you... you scolded me..."

In the carriage, Gu Mingchuan saw her tears coming so suddenly, and was just sighing when he felt the temperature around him suddenly drop. He subconsciously glanced at the young man outside the carriage, and his heart was a little shocked, "At least he is at the ninth level of Gang Yuan."

This man, who seemed to be in his early twenties, had such profound skills.

He had personally experienced the gap between Minglong City and Jiangzhou City.

In Minglong City, a Gangyuan ninth level cultivator is enough to dominate the city.

In Jiangzhou City, a young generation of a noble family has this kind of cultivation.

The man's face was as cold as ice, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Who dares to touch you?"

Xue Ruoyu sobbed and said, "It's... the two evil Lius... If it weren't for Brother Hou who saved me... you would never see me again..."

Xue Qingfeng heard this and bowed to Gu Mingchuan in the car, saying, "Thank you for saving my sister. The Xue family will definitely reward you handsomely. Come on, come home with me, little sister."

He waved his hand, and the majestic black horse ran over and stopped beside him.

He took his sister's hand and asked her to sit on the horse.

Xue Ruoyu turned around, looked at Gu Mingchuan reluctantly, and said, "Brother Hou, I'm going home first. I'll come to see you when I'm free."

After saying that, Xue Qingfeng took her away.

……

"It's the Xue family."

Gu Mingchuan learned about the origins of the brother and sister from Cui Lie, and he suddenly understood.

The Xue family was very famous, and everyone in Jiangzhou knew about it. They had a nickname, "Millennium Second".

The Xue family has been passed down for more than a thousand years. It has always been one of the top families in Jiangzhou and has never declined.

Interestingly, the Xue family has never reached the top. They have always been very stable and ranked second.

The most powerful family in Jiangzhou today is the Jiang family, and the Xue family can only be ranked second.

Before the rise of the Jiang family, another aristocratic family was ranked first, and the Xue family was still ranked second.

The title of the second place for a thousand years has been unavoidable.

Gu Mingchuan was invited by Huo Jianfei to come to the Huo family. He was chatting with Huo Jianfei's father when suddenly a servant came to report that someone from the Xue family had come.

The person who came was a middle-aged man with an extraordinary demeanor. He claimed to be the steward of the Xue family and came to invite Gu Mingchuan to stay in the villa of the Xue mansion for a few days.

Gu Mingchuan didn't want to cause any trouble, so he declined.

The housekeeper said, "Mr. Hou saved my young lady, so he is the benefactor of the Xue family. How can we let a benefactor live outside? The eldest young master has ordered that no matter what the young master wants, just ask."

Gu Mingchuan became more excited after hearing this and said, "I heard that the courtesans in Xiaoyue Tower are both beautiful and talented. I really want to meet them..."

The housekeeper said, "This is easy. Send someone to arrange it immediately."

Seeing Huo Jianfei's envious look, Gu Mingchuan said, "Is it okay for me to bring one more person with me?"

"Naturally."

After the Xue family’s housekeeper left.

Gu Mingchuan said to Huo Jianfei, "Come with me tonight."

"Brother Hou..."

Huo Jianfei was so touched that he almost kowtowed to him on the spot.

……

At night, the Xue family sent a luxurious carriage to pick up Gu Mingchuan and Huo Jianfei and go to Xiaoyue Tower.

In the carriage, Huo Jianfei touched here and there, with a look of amazement on his face, "As expected of a thousand-year-old family, this carriage alone must cost at least several thousand taels. Big brother, I am indebted to you today. I can actually ride in the Xue family's carriage."

This incident alone was enough for him to brag about for half a year, not to mention that he was going to meet the Oiran soon.

The three courtesans in Xiaoyue Tower were really something that even if you had money you couldn't get them. Anyway, it was basically impossible for him to be at this level.

It makes me excited just thinking about it.

Gu Mingchuan glanced at him. He looked nervous and expectant, as if he was going to meet his idol. It was a little funny.

"You've never been to a brothel?"

"Of course I've been there, but I can't afford the prices at Xiaoyue Tower."

"Don't be nervous. Women are creatures. The more uneasy you are in front of them and the more you treat them as goddesses, the more they will look down on you. Just treat her as an ordinary person, and she will look up to you. It's best not to treat her as a human being..."

While the two were talking, the carriage stopped.

We have arrived at Xiaoyue Tower.

The madam led them inside, through a long corridor, and came to an exquisite courtyard.

I have to say that Xiaoyue Tower is much more upscale than Chunxiang Tower. It has a larger space and more exquisite decoration. The pavilions and towers are like a garden.

It is worthy of being the most high-end club in Jiangzhou City.

Gu Mingchuan was even more looking forward to the three courtesans.

To be able to become the oiran in such a high-end club, she must be stunningly beautiful.

Soon, they were led to a small building. As soon as they sat down, they heard a gentle and intoxicating voice, "Qin'er will play a song for the two gentlemen..."

After that, the sound of piano began to play.

……

Xue family.

In a small courtyard, Xue Ruoyu finally got rid of his mother. He used the excuse of needing to rest, and after his mother walked away, he quietly slipped out of the room.

"Xiaoxue, come on, I'll take you to see Brother Hou. This time, it was he who saved me..."

She was accompanied by a maid and had a sword slung behind her back.

The maid named Xiaoxue said, "Miss, Madam has ordered that you are not allowed to leave the Xue Mansion..."

"Tonight, Brother Hou will be leaving tomorrow. If you miss this opportunity, I don't know when we will meet again."

"Miss, please don't embarrass me. This time you were in danger outside, and I was not with you..."

"It's not your fault. Aren't you in seclusion to break through to the Gangyuan realm? Let's go. What dangers can there be in Jiangzhou City? By the way, ask someone to find out where Brother Hou is. I'll wait for you at the east wall."

"Yes."

The maid named Xiaoxue couldn't persuade her after all, so she had to go.

Two quarters of an hour later.

Xue Ruoyu finally saw Xiaoxue coming over and asked quickly, "How is it? Did you find out anything?"

Xiaoxue said with a twinkling look in her eyes, "Miss, let's not go."

"You are hiding something from me? Did my elder brother embarrass elder brother Hou?"

"No...it's...that Mr. Hou went to Xiaoyue Tower..."

"what?"

Xue Ruoyu felt like he was struck by lightning.

Xiaoxue said, "The eldest young master is ready to repay the young master, but he didn't ask for gold, silver, or jewelry, nor did he ask for secret manuals or magic weapons. He only made one request, which was to go to Xiaoyue Tower to meet the three courtesans - Miss, where are you going? Wait for me -"

……

…………

Xiaoyue Tower.

Gu Mingchuan was admiring Miss Yu Zi's dance.

This is the last one to appear.

It has to be said that each of the three courtesans has their own merits and are all stunningly beautiful.

Miss Qin'er's piano skills are unparalleled. Even Gu Mingchuan, who is used to listening to modern pop music, was infected by the sound of the piano and became intoxicated by it.

Xiao Meir's singing was also soul-stirring and could easily arouse his emotions. Her singing skills were better than any other singer he had ever heard.

Yu Zi, who appeared last, made him understand why the tyrants in ancient times loved watching dance so much. This was indeed the ultimate audio-visual enjoyment that made people intoxicated.

This trip tonight was well worth it.

After the dance, Miss Yuzi walked up to him, poured a glass of wine, and said, "Yuzi toasts you, sir."

Then, she covered her face with her sleeves, tilted her head back and drank it all. Her porcelain-like face turned pink and her eyes were misty.

Gu Mingchuan's breathing suddenly became rapid, it was too tempting.

He stretched out his hand and was about to hug Yu Zi.

"Brother Hou!"

Just then, a wronged voice was heard.

Gu Mingchuan was startled. He turned around and saw Xue Ruoyu rushing in. His underdeveloped chest was rising and falling rapidly. "You...how could you come to a place like this?"

He saw sadness, sorrow, and grievance in her eyes...a huge question mark popped up in his mind.

What does my visit to the brothel have to do with you?
At this time, Miss Yuzi saw that the situation was not good and quietly retreated.

Huo Jianfei also quickly slipped away.

Xue Ruoyu's eyes were red, "I know, you just want to make me angry on purpose."

"..."

"You are a gentleman, you don't lie in secret. You have been treating me with courtesy and sincerity these past few days. If you are like this in front of me, how can you be interested in these vulgar women?"

That's because they know you have an extraordinary family background. If they just hook up with you casually, they'd be asking for trouble.

Besides, they are much more sexy than you.

"My brother wanted to repay you. You didn't even want the magic weapon or the secret manual. You came to the brothel. Isn't it just to piss me off?"

what?
Magical weapons, secret techniques? No one told me.

Gu Mingchuan thought of the housekeeper and realized that the butler was deliberately not mentioning it and was playing tricks.

"Brother Hou, whether you hate me or are angry, we should be aware that we are not destined to be together. Don't degrade yourself. This is my sword servant, who grew up with me. From now on, let her serve you..."

Xue Ruoyu pointed at the maid Xiaoxue behind him.

Xiaoxue's face suddenly turned pale and she looked at her young lady in disbelief.

Gu Mingchuan looked up to the sky and thought, what can I say?
PS: Please vote for me.
