Chapter 051 - Drawing a Sword in Unusual Anger (1)

  "What a beautiful city building! It can't be compared to the small fishing village we live in." Peanut tilted his head and said with fresh envy.

  I looked around, there were dozens of spacious avenues leading to the Great Thousand City nearby, the road was filled with a steady stream of traffic, and crowds of people entering and exiting the city lined up at the city gates, and many of them were escorting goods.

  We followed the crowd and slowly entered the city, the streets here are very wide and accessible in all directions, with tall buildings on both sides, and a variety of shops lined up. People, demons and monsters bustling, gorgeous clothes, especially women, wearing bold and sexy, a translucent pink belly band dare to go out on the street.

  The donkey-eared demon introduced, "In a few days, it will be the ten-yearly Puffing Fragrance Fest of Great Thousand City, so recently there are especially many people and demons coming to Great Thousand City, all of you are probably here to seize the treasure and recruit your relatives too, right?"

  "Capture the treasure to recruit a bride?" I asked curiously, "What does that mean?"

  The donkey-eared demon explained excitedly, "So you all still don't know. The Puffing Fragrance Extravaganza is an event in the Red Dust Heaven, where the Lion's Roar Mysterious Dao Sect, the Vajra Mysterious Dao Sect, and the Upside Down A Royal Sect jointly organise a Spell Competition Assembly, and ultimately decide on the three winners, with the winnings being the exotic treasures provided by the Lion's Roar Mysterious Dao Sect and the three sects. If the winners are willing, they will also be able to join the three great sects to hold important positions."

  I impatiently interrupted him, "What does that have to do with the recruitment?"

  The donkey-eared demon hemmed and hawed, "This year's Puffing Fragrance Extravaganza is a bit different from previous years, with an extra beauty in the pot."

  Hear the word beauty, even peanut skin this old man also perked up his ears to listen carefully, really old steed, colourful heart ah. Donkey ears demon then said: "Upside down three or four A Royal faction of the head of the He Ping has a baby daughter, called He Saihua, people as the name, the beauty of the flower. He Ping wanted to pick a husband for his daughter, so a few days ago he specially announced that the strongest of the three winners would then be able to become the Dragon Son-in-law of the Upside Down A Royal Sect." Both eyes glowing, enviously swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "It's a pity that my demon power is too poor, otherwise I would also like to try, this is a beautiful thing that can kill two birds with one stone, not only can I hold a beautiful woman's return, but also become the heir of the Upside Down Armoured Sect, maybe there is also a chance to enter the Chaos Armoured Sect and live in Loxian Heaven permanently."

  My heart stirred, since the Puffing Fragrance Extravaganza was so lively, the three beauties might also come to watch. At that moment, I said, "Then we'd like to catch a glimpse of the spectacle."

  Peanut Skin, Peanut Fruit, and Big Tiger nodded their heads in unison, and Peanut Shell grunted, "All the women of Great Thousand Cities are shameless, and what's-his-name He Saihua isn't much better."

  The donkey-eared demon was startled, looked at the surrounding crowd, and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense girl, the front few are the people of the Upside Down A Imperial Faction, don't give them a chance to hear it."

  Along with the donkey ear demon's gaze, two wearing a thick cotton jacket, hand holding cowhide pockets, dressed unorthodox big man walking head on, under the feet of the wooden slippers "snap snap snap" sound. I was dumbfounded, it is now a hot summer, these two guys are actually still wearing cotton jacket, really upside down. Peanut Shell shouted, "Aren't they afraid of getting heat rash if they wear that much?"

  The leader of the big man heard and squeezed his eyes at Peanut Shell: "Only women like to wear less." Another big man said, "This girl also wears a lot of ah, just a little bit of dirt, probably from the countryside."

  The peanut shells were so angry that their faces reddened, wanting to curse, but their mouths were firmly covered by the peanut skins. The two big men walked into the shops along the street, and the shopkeepers took out gold and silver one after another, nodding their heads and putting them into their cowhide bags. The donkey-eared demon said, "The shops along this street have to pay taxes to the Upside Down A Royal Sect every month, and those of us who own inns have to pay protection fees to the Vajra Mystic Path Sect."

  I'm now penniless and desperately need to get some silver to spend. When the two big men walked out of a silk cloth shop, I purposely walked over and brushed past them, casting the Chaos Armour Royal Art, my left hand passed through the ox skin bag without a sound, unnoticeably, and a few ingots of golden treasure were already clutched in my hand. I smiled proudly, with this Armour Royal Art, I will have no worries about food and drink in the future.

  After passing through a dozen streets, it was already late in the day, and brightly coloured lanterns were hung up on many high buildings. Peanut Skin frowned at the donkey-eared demon and said, "After travelling for so long, why haven't we reached the inn yet?"

  The donkey-eared demon was all smiles, "Don't worry, sir, we'll be there soon." Leading us to turn into a dark alley, bending east and west for half a day, stopping in front of a humble shop at the mouth of the alley.

  "This is the Mighty Wind Inn?" Peanut Shell stared round, a dirty gutter crossed in front of the shop, floating with greasy vegetable leaves, a foul odour pungent to the nose. There were dark alleys all around, with rubbish piled up in the corners, and a short-tailed demon was squatting and grunting, looking like he was taking a dump.

  The donkey-eared demon pointed to the signboard hanging in front of the small shop, the writing on it had long been blurred: "Mighty Wind Inn, as good as fake."

  Peanut shells grabbed the ear of the donkey-eared demon: "Donkey cubs looking for death, dare to fool us! How can this kind of place be inhabited?"

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

  The donkey-eared demon cried out in pain, "Miss, please let go, although our inn is a bit shabby, it is cheap, and we also give away breakfast and provide free laundry. Other inns cost three taels of silver a day at least."

  Peanut Skin nodded, "What he said is also true, we don't have much silver, so we will just stay for two days. The day after tomorrow at the latest, my senior brother should arrive at Great Thousand City."

  In the inn, a bull-headed demon shop assistant dressed as a shop assistant leaned against the counter and dozed off. The donkey-eared demon shouted, "The guests are here, why don't you greet them?"

  Peanut Skin said, "We want two rooms."

  The ox-head demon rubbed his sleepy eyes and glanced at the turquoise-eyed water cloud beast that Peanut Skin was riding, and greeted us as we walked through the shop, there was a patio at the back door that surrounded dozens of narrow rooms, the ox-head demon pushed open the door of the two rooms at the east end of the room, which were fairly clean, just that the bedding was a bit worn out.

  The bull-headed demon asked, "What would the guest like to eat?"

  I smiled cheekily, "What are your specialities?"

  Peanut Shell snatched, "No need, we still have dry food, you go down." Squinting at me, his mouth muttered to himself like he was saying don't try to cheat the food.

  I pulled out a gold ingot, waved it in front of Peanut Shell's eyes, and said smugly, "I have plenty of money, Peanut, let's go, I'll take you to eat and drink spicy food."

  "Good oh!" Peanut gave a cheer and pulled me onto the Bi-eye Watercloud Beast, and with a pat on its arse, "Whew", the Bi-eye Watercloud Beast swooped out more than ten feet, and in a single bound, it leapt out of the inn and ran towards the alleyway beyond. Behind him came Peanut Skin's angry curses from afar, "Brat, taking the opportunity to sneak out to play again!"

  In a short while, we arrived at the bustling street corner, with lights and colours everywhere, flashy buildings, and lights as bright as flames flying in the sky. I chose a luxurious restaurant, which was full of guests, and in the centre of the hall a theatre was set up, on which a delicate banshee with pointed ears was dancing, with delicate curves, and a single crystal filament wrapped around her body. The demoness stood upright on one foot and lightly spun around, the fine silk falling off layer by layer from her body, revealing her pink skin.

  "Take off! Take off! Quickly take off!" All the guests were shouting excitedly, and Peanut was watching with her little face flying red. I looked at the menu: "Steamed Dragon's Liver", "Oil-blasted Pixie Pork", "Ganoderma Kirin Tendon"...... are all things I've have never eaten fresh stuff, I slapped the golden dollar treasure on the table, and said with bravado: "Come to the four signature dishes, the rest of the reward."

  The shop assistant received the gold yuan treasure with a smile on his brow, I looked at the banshee on the stage with great interest and asked, "Is there often a lap dance performance here?"

  The shop assistant heatedly smiled, "Yes, every night there will be a different female demon performance, today this is a silkworm demon, called Xiao Hong. Anyway, demons are cheap, they are willing to sell for a dozen taels of silver."

  "What do you mean by that? Are demons inferior?"

  "Of course, most of the demons that hang around in the Red Dust Heaven have very weak demonic powers, they either work as prostitutes, or are thieves, robbers, or act as servants to be called upon. Anyway, they have no status and have to look at us humans to make a living."

  I didn't feel good listening to this, after all, I am considered half a demon myself. On the theatre stage, Silkworm Demon Xiao Hong's fine silk had already faded to her waist, and her small breasts were like soft pigeons, flickering with a pinkish hue in the light. The guests around were still shouting wildly: "Take off ah, bitch!" "Dirty little goblin, don't whet your master's appetite, take it off!"

  Raining broken silver thrown onto the theatre stage, smashing small red in droves, a hint of pain flashed in her eyes, her face still forcing a smile. I sighed and twisted my head away, unwilling to look any further.

  "Do you enjoy watching the dancers being bullied as much as they do?" Clear light flashed on the middle finger of his left hand, and the Moon Spirit suddenly spoke.

  I froze for a moment, casting the Five Senses Demonic Technique and using my eyes to talk to the Moon Soul: "I don't know her, so it's none of my business if she's being bullied."

  Moon Soul indifferently said, "So you only care about yourself."

  I said blankly, "Then what can I do? These days, everyone sweeps the snow in front of their own door, and meddling in other people's business eats more farts."

  "Phantom Dance, hey, Phantom Dance." Moon Soul's voice became pale and disappointed, "I can't imagine that after thousands of years, the Phantom Dance's heir would be such a pusillanimous person."

  I asked unconvincingly, "Then what kind of heir to the Phantom Dance do you think should be?"

  "The Phantom Dance, is the most intense dance of life - indulging in one madness when joyful!" Moon Soul stuttered, his voice like sputtering sparks, "Unevenly drawing his sword in anger!"

  I was dumbfounded, "Uneven? This was originally her way of survival, by her own will."

  Moon Soul sneered, "That's right, she was born cheap, so she willingly sells here."

  My heart thumped, as if I saw a scene of myself grabbing porridge on the Lion Bridge in Luoyang. At that time, I was just as lowly as Xiao Hong, right? Being stepped on, being trampled on with laughter.

  But who is born lowly?

  "Bang!" An ingot of Yuanbao smashed heavily into the corner of Xiao Hong's eye, blood blossomed out, and the guest erupted into a contented maniacal laughter. I couldn't help but feel my blood rush up in my veins, day his grandma, I'll mind my own business for once! I slammed the table and roared, ''Shut the fuck up! I've wrapped up Little Red today, whoever dares to make her undress again, I'll kill his whole family!"
