Chapter 164: Ming Yu's Daughter!

  "Alright, but I'm warning you, don't even think about denying it next time." Ji Liu Feng smiled wryly. Today's situation was indeed a bit inconvenient for him, and he didn't want to make things difficult for Xiao Yun. After all, Xiao Yun was in Long City, and there was no way she could escape.

  "Xiao Gongzi, how did you end up here?" At this time, Ji Xiangyue, who had been keeping her head down and silent beside him, looked up and asked Xiao Yun.

  "Uh..."

  Xiao Yun hesitated, turned his head and glanced at Zhou Mingxuan. This was a brothel, what could two grown men do here? For a moment, Xiao Yun's mind went blank.

  Xiaoyue also realized that she had asked the wrong question, and a hint of redness appeared on her pretty face, making the atmosphere slightly awkward.

  "Oh, that's right!" Zhou Mingxuan dryly laughed and said, "These past few days, Xiao Brother has been cooped up in the guest house practicing his skills. I heard there was a singing gathering here, so I pulled him out to clear his mind."

  This is considered to have helped Xiao Yun out of trouble, Ji Xiangyue was half-believing and half-doubting, after all, in her opinion, men who come to such places are not very decent.

  "Haha, no need to explain, a man's youth is wasted if he doesn't have a romantic streak. That's just how men are, and you can understand that." Ji Liufeng chuckled in response.

  Another sentence made Xiao Yun embarrassed, turned his face and stared at Zhou Mingxuan, it's all because of this guy, insisting on bringing himself to visit such a place, now it's good, encountering acquaintances, can't be embarrassing?

  "Miss Ming Yu has arrived!"

  At this moment, the old procuress's loud and clear voice came from downstairs, and suddenly, the music started to play, and the four people stopped their idle talk. Looking out, several singing and dancing women retreated from the stage, countless flower petals fell from the top of the building, and a fragrance wafted through the air. A white-clad woman floated down from the rooftop, accompanied by those colorful flower petals. It was as if a heavenly maiden had descended to earth, and suddenly, the crowd below fell silent. Almost everyone in the grand hall stood up, their eyes fixed on the figure in mid-air.

  On the beam of the second floor, several red silks were tied up, and the woman floated down onto the silk like a wisp of cloud, sitting on it with an extremely elegant posture.

  Apart from the music, the hall was silent. Everyone's eyes at this moment had only one focus, that being the breathtakingly beautiful woman sitting on the red chair.

  A light dusting of powder, crimson cheeks and lips, a slender waist and a seductive figure, floating in mid-air with red silk, just like the heavenly maiden descending to the mortal world. Everyone held their breath, afraid that even the slightest sound would disturb this beautiful scene.

  "Master!"

  Watching that woman float down from the air, this move has obviously exceeded the category of ordinary people. There is no doubt that this woman is also a music repairman. And the strength must be good.

  "Hmmph!"

  Watching a group of men staring at the woman in mid-air, Ji Xiangyue, who was also a daughter, naturally felt a bit uncomfortable. She couldn't help but hum softly to express her dissatisfaction. However, her dissatisfied hum didn't have much effect.

  "Miss Mingyu, Miss Mingyu!"

  After a moment of silence, the men below started shouting, their faces flushed red like wild bulls, with fiery eyes that didn't hide their inner hunger. They looked as if they would rush up and swallow the woman alive.

  "Everyone, quiet down!"

  The old woman shouted loudly with her throat pulled, and it slowly subsided.

  "Now, let's have Miss Mingyu sing a song for everyone - 'Soul-destroying Ballad'!"

  The old procuress shouted, then looked up at the woman who was swinging in mid-air like a swing, and immediately retreated. A group of beautiful women came on stage, lined up and accompanied by dance.

  A pipa appeared in the woman's hand, and with a light strum, pleasant sounds instantly spread throughout the Spring Breeze Pavilion. The accompanying sounds from below gradually rose up, and the woman's crimson lips, filled with enchanting voice, began to sing.

  The sound of the woman's song made everyone feel their blood boiling, that voice was like a gentle whisper, entwining around people's ears, plucking at everyone's heartstrings, like honey, making one unable to resist being drawn in, and once they laid eyes on her, they couldn't look away.

  "There's something strange!"

  Xiao Yun felt a dizziness, hastily activated the "Clear Mind and Universal Goodness Mantra" to resist the demonic sound that was entering his ears. At the same time, the majestic energy in his body circulated, and the seven-colored majestic energy transformed by Xiao Yun using holy power had an effect of driving away evil spirits and demons. As it circulated through the meridians for a cycle, it completely dispersed the demonic sound.

  Instead, he looked at Ji Liufeng and Ji Xiangyue. The two of them were also slightly dazed, but it seemed that there was some kind of treasure protecting their bodies, and they fell into a trance for not long before waking up again.

  Xiao Yun looked at himself, still clearly awake. Both of them were somewhat surprised, but more than that, their faces were solemn.

  Among the four, only Zhou Mingxuan was still staring blankly at the woman, his eyes not blinking even once, clearly entranced by her singing voice, with an expression on his face almost identical to everyone else present.

  This woman was indeed extraordinary. To think that Zhou Mingxuan was a master of the Musician Realm, yet she had unknowingly gotten the better of him and still didn't realize it.

  It was a long time before the enchanting song that had mesmerized everyone finally came to a gradual stop, but inside Chunfeng Pavilion, there was still an eerie silence. Everyone stared blankly at the figure in mid-air, their faces filled with foolish infatuation. In a daze, it seemed as if the beautiful and resounding voice still lingered around their ears.

  "Brother Zhou, wake up!" Xiao Yun stretched out his hand and gave Zhou Mingxuan's shoulder a heavy slap.

  Zhou Mingxuan was taken aback, and slowly came back to his senses. Seeing the three people staring at him, he also realized his own momentary loss of composure. He shook his head vigorously, "No wonder you're the top courtesan of Chunfeng Pavilion, this voice is too seductive!"

  Xiang Liu smiled slightly, which wasn't surprising. They had treasures to protect themselves and were still a little short of the way. On the contrary, Xiao Yun was not affected by the charm, but it made him very curious.

  "Xiao brothers, what do you think of this woman?" Ji Liufeng asked Xiang Yun.

  Xiao Yun shook his head, glanced at the woman and said, "She's beautiful indeed, but her beauty is almost eerie. And this Ming Yu girl, I'm afraid she's not as simple as a common courtesan."

  Xiaoyu nodded slightly, but didn't say much. Xiao Yun's words were the same as what he had been thinking. He had been paying attention to Chunfeng Pavilion for a long time. Among the guests coming and going from Chunfeng Pavilion, there were many high-ranking officials and nobles. Moreover, regarding some of the high-ranking officials in the imperial court, Chunfeng Pavilion was intentionally trying to curry favor with them, subtly threatening the imperial politics.

  The boss of Chunfeng Pavilion is very mysterious, even Xie Liufeng can't figure out his background. He once suspected that Mingyu was the boss of Chunfeng Pavilion, but she rarely shows up, so he took this opportunity to investigate. The fact tells him that Mingyu is indeed not simple, and the song just now seems more like a demonic practice, but it's unknown which faction it belongs to.

  At the same time, Ming Yu turned her face to glance at the second-floor private room where Xiao Yun and others were, and a hint of unusual color flashed in her eyes. Although Xiao Yun spoke softly, the room was quiet enough that a falling needle could be heard, and with her hearing, it would have been hard not to hear even if she wanted to. What made her even more concerned, however, was that these people hadn't been enticed by her singing.

  "Gentlemen, what do you think of Miss Mingyu's performance?" The old procuress smiled and stepped onto the stage again.

  "Alright, alright, alright!"

  "Encore!"

  The crowd came back to their senses and raised their fists, shouting loudly, as if they were afraid that Mingyu would not hear their shouts.

  The old procuress waved her hand, "Gentlemen, please be quiet. Miss Mingyu is tired and won't sing anymore. Next, it's the finale of today's Lower Yuan Song Gathering. Everyone will bid, and whoever bids the highest price will have a chance to spend a night with our Miss Mingyu. Of course, even if you offer the highest price, you must also rely on your appearance and talent to move our Miss Mingyu and win her favor."

  As soon as the old prostitute's words came out, the eyebrows of Xiao Yun and others upstairs couldn't help but turn black. Since they were deliberately selling spring, they still made these tricks, which was really not a loss no matter how you calculated it.

  "I'll give you 1,000 taels of gold!"

  "Ten thousand taels! Ming Yu, you are mine!"

  "Hmph, all of you get out of here! I'll give you ten mid-grade spirit crystals!"

  "Haha, ten mid-grade spirit crystals, thinking of getting close to Ming Yu, that's simply a pipe dream. I'll offer ten high-grade spirit crystals!"
