Chapter Seventy: The Legacy of Wei's Martial Might

This... is a transformed demon!?

As soon as Xu Boqing saw the true nature of the madam, his heart began to beat faster...

There are righteous sects in the world of martial arts, and naturally, there are also those who follow twisted and sinister paths. For example, Cui Feng practices a wicked art called "Harvesting Yin to Supplement Yang," and even his own "Star Absorbing Devil Technique" is not considered orthodox.

The essence of these arts is to damage others' foundations in order to nourish oneself.

So when Xu Boqing observed that many men in Hongyang City had their vital energy dissipated, yet their lives were not lost...

He instinctively assumed that this Siqing Pavilion must be a stronghold of some demonic sect specializing in "Harvesting Yang to Supplement Yin."

When he saw that the girls receiving guests at Siqing Pavilion displayed certain unusual signs but still retained human form, it further confirmed his suspicions...

But when he finally witnessed the true form behind the madam, he realized he had greatly underestimated the situation!

There was a demon!

And not just any demon—a great demon that had taken human form!

...

The madam leaned against the railing on the second floor, gently waving her palace fan. Her gaze swept over the floor below, and when the girls brought in a distinguished-looking gentleman, she instinctively glanced his way...

Even with her discerning eyes, the man's appearance was excellent, but what was truly rare was the pure and untarnished aura about him, a quality that clashed with the decadent atmosphere of Siqing Pavilion...

Even more unusual...

The man's yang energy—it was abundant!

Feeling the vibrant yang energy radiating from him like the blazing sun, she nearly mistook him for an immortal, but upon activating her demon sight, saw that he was merely mortal flesh...

At this moment, Xu Boqing felt his scalp tingling, for he could clearly sense that the madam, who bore the characteristics of a spider, had taken notice of him—interestingly so.

The two girls beside him led him to a private table...

One picked a grape glistening with dew from the fruit platter and brought it to his lips, asking coyly, "Young master, do you have any familiar girls here?"

The other, not to be outdone, pressed herself against him, delicately stroking his arm with her ample assets, her voice seductive to the bone, "If you don't, how about me?"

"Please, ladies, conduct yourselves with dignity!"

Xu Boqing hurriedly withdrew his arm, stood up, and sternly declared, "I merely passed by your establishment by chance, and was led inside by you. I have a wife and family, and my intentions do not lie here. Please, do not force unwanted business upon me..."

...

The two girls paused for a moment...

They could tell he was just now intrigued, so why the sudden change upon sitting down? Was it because they didn't suit his taste?

The pair quickly stood, one adopting a pitiful demeanor, her eyes brimming with tears, "Young master, are you dissatisfied with us sisters?"

"If you don't like us, you can always choose another..."

---

The other girl came closer, her slender, delicate hands caressing him with tender affection, her expression wistful, "Since you've come to this fairyland, wouldn't it be a shame not to experience it at least once?"

"I'll pass on being a fairy..."

Xu Boqing quickly freed himself from their grasp, and seeing they meant to cling further, he blurted, "I didn't bring any money out today... Next time, next time for sure."

Finishing his words, he turned to leave Siqing Pavilion, but his steps halted before he could exit...

The seductive madam, still alluring in her maturity, had descended the stairs and approached, waving her palace fan as she smiled, "It's only a bit of silver, young master, why rush to leave?"

"Madam..."

The two girls curtsied respectfully at her arrival.

"You may go, I'll entertain this gentleman."

The madam watched her daughters depart, then smiled, "Our pavilion is humble, and my girls are unfortunate souls, rough-handed and clumsy. If their hospitality falls short, please forgive us, young master."

...

Xu Boqing's heart thumped wildly—he hadn't expected to encounter another demon!

A year ago, it was a serpent demon seeking immortality; today, a spider demon already transformed!

But now...

He was no longer the Xu Genshuo of a year ago...

He replied cheerfully, "Siqing Pavilion is a place where immortals linger, and your ladies are talented and beautiful, warm and passionate. But I truly did not bring silver with me, and wandered in empty-handed. Please forgive me, madam."

"You flatter us, young master..."

The madam covered her lips with her fan, smiling, "You are graceful and elegant, extraordinary, like a banished immortal. For you to visit our pavilion is a blessing for the girls; money is of no concern."

...

This old madam wants me to enjoy for free?

Surely, she has ulterior motives!

"I'm not worthy of such praise..."

Xu Boqing was momentarily distracted, then responded cautiously, "I have pressing matters and cannot linger. Please, grant me leave..."

"Don't be so hasty, young master."

The madam of Siqing Pavilion smiled, both coy and teasing, then called out, "Daughters, come out and welcome our esteemed guest."

At her call, the girls of Siqing Pavilion gathered swiftly...

Some were dressed flamboyantly; some appeared modest and demure; others feigned shyness and timidity...

Plump or slender, each had her own charm...

"Here we come~"

"Madam, where is the honored guest~"

...

---

Dozens of girls, chirping and chattering, surrounded Xu Boqing and the madam.

One giggled, praising the young master’s handsome looks and offering her company for free; another coquettishly admired his extraordinary demeanor, promising not only free service but new experiences...

Xu Boqing glanced around at the varied faces, feeling as if he were controlling a character in an old game, entering the "Spider's Den" dungeon.

Except now, he himself was the protagonist...

This...

The madam saw his odd expression and smiled, "Young master, all my girls are here. Please, choose whichever pleases your eye."

Then she teased further, "If one isn't enough, take two; if two aren't, take three... As long as your body can handle it, you may call for all of them, and my daughters won't mind."

...

Xu Boqing's breath caught. He realized now—the spider demon had no intention of letting him leave!

His gaze sharpened as he surveyed the girls, then settled on the smiling spider demon. He asked casually, "May I ask madam's name?"

"I am surnamed Zhu, Zhu Sisi."

The spider demon saw his attention on her, appeared somewhat dazed, then recovered and laughed, "And what may I call you, young master?"

"A Zhu surname, that's rare."

Xu Boqing glanced sideways, feigning surprise, then replied, "I am Xu, Xu Genshuo."

"A fine name, young master~"

Zhu Sisi complimented, and seeing his somewhat bored expression, raised her brow, "None of my daughters appeal to you, Xu?"

"Madam Zhu’s daughters are lovely, but for me, they are too young, lacking maturity..."

Once again, Xu Boqing fixed his gaze on her, meaningfully adding, "It’s not that my standards are high, but I’ve had a peculiar taste since childhood..."

"A... peculiar taste!?"

Zhu Sisi had spent many years here, meeting men with various peculiarities. She quickly responded, smiling, "If my hospitality is insufficient, please say what special needs you have, and I will ensure you are satisfied."

"I prefer mature women, especially those belonging to others."

...

Xu Boqing shamelessly leaned closer, smiling, "Someone with your charm, madam, is exactly my preference."

...

"Madam, would you share my table and my bed tonight?"
