Chapter 94: Liaoyuan
“In Baijing City, there is a pleasure house called the Fengqi Pavilion. It is the largest of its kind in the nearby cities and hosts a competition for the top courtesan every year.”
Gu Shiyi frowned and said, “Brother Li, you… are interested in such things?”
Li Shujian felt more and more that his previous assessment was flawed; the Zhang Hao before him was clearly a righteous young hero with formidable strength.
“Brother Zhang, that is not the case. Let me finish.”
Thereupon, he informed Gu Shiyi about the news that the Moon Goddess Temple’s goddess, Yu Chan, was set to participate in the top courtesan competition.
Gu Shiyi pondered, “Once Goddess Yu Chan participates, it will be like throwing a pebble into a lake, creating countless ripples.”
Li Shujian nodded and said, “Brother Zhang is indeed sharp. According to rumors, Qingxue Sword Jiang Rui, a successor of the Northern Ice Sword Palace, Song Xi’wu of the Song Clan, and the Medicine Immortal Lu Zihan of the Lu Clan are all planning to participate…”
Hearing this, Lu Jianjia could not help but refute, “Immortal… Zihan is participating too? She has always stayed out of the affairs of the jianghu; it cannot be.”
Li Shujian shook his head. “It is very likely. Since Yu Chan has announced her participation, it means the Moon Goddess Temple has confirmed that the vital energy gathered at Fengqi Pavilion is sufficient for a middle-grade alchemist to make a breakthrough.
