Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 137: Flower Street Assassination
After taking a shower in the inn and changing into clean clothes, Sun Yanwan felt refreshed.

He didn't want to eat at the inn that night, so he went out for a stroll with Lao Qingshan. Suddenly, he saw a street in the distance that was brightly lit. He immediately became excited and said, "Let's go take a look."

Lao Qingshan hesitated to speak and did not try to persuade her. He followed Sun Yanwan to the street. Only then did Sun Yanwan discover that this was actually a "red-light district".

The street wasn't long, with only six or seven shops, but the frontage of each was spacious enough to accommodate ten, if not dozens, of carriages. Business was booming, with people constantly calling out, "Master Wang is here!" "Why did Master Sun come so late? I missed you so much!" "A rare guest, a rare guest! Master Zhu hasn't been here for so long! I've missed you so much I'm sick..."

Sun Yanwan had been to so-called nightclubs a few times on Earth, but she always felt they weren't economical or cost-effective. Even the several-thousand-yuan membership fee for an equestrian coach or a year-long membership for an archery coach wasn't much money. Going to a place like that would probably cost thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan a night.

Sun Yanwan was a serious man. Realizing he had come to the wrong place, he smiled and said, "Mr. Lao, let's go back! This isn't the right place for me."

Lao Qingshan smiled slightly and said, "That's right, Master, please come back in a few years."

Sun Yanwan smiled and said, "In a few years, I won't need to come here anymore."

In another year or two, when he is fourteen or fifteen years old, he will be able to try to eat the little butterfly, Xiao Nanmeng.

Why come to a place like this?
Just as Sun Yanwan was about to turn around, she smelled a fragrant breeze. A middle-aged woman came over and called out with a smile, "But Brother Zhao, your friends have been waiting for you for a long time. Come with me quickly."

Sun Yanwan hurriedly said, "My last name is not Zhao."

Xu Niang covered her lips with a palace fan and chuckled, "I was mistaken. It was Young Master Wang! Young Master Li and the others have been waiting for you for a long time."

Sun Yanwan laughed and said, "My last name is Sima!"

Xu Niang immediately replied, "I remembered it wrong again. It was Master Sima! Your friends are waiting for you to come over so they can choose girls together. They all say that if Master Sima doesn't come and choose a girl first, they won't choose first!"

"Don't mention your friends, the girls in our yard are also worried."

Sun Yanwan couldn't help laughing and said, "No time, no time!"

He hadn't expected to encounter a classic pimp, but he truly had no interest in the red-light district. Lao Qingshan stopped Xu Niang, who was about to come up and pull her, and she walked out of the red-light district.

Although in many novels, when a time traveler arrives in ancient times, or a world similar to ancient times, he must go to a brothel, and even listening to music in a brothel is a popular internet meme, but he really doesn't want to try this new thing.

The middle-aged woman could not get over Lao Qingshan. Seeing Sun Yanwan walking away, she stomped her feet in shame and anger and turned back.

Sun Yanwan walked more than ten steps when she suddenly felt a stir in her heart. She looked back and saw three large men hiding in the shadows with strange postures. She couldn't help but wonder, "Why do they seem to be avoiding me?"

"I don't have any acquaintances in Chongyang City?"

After Sun Yanwan left Flower Street, she always felt that this matter was a little strange. She told Lao Qingshan, changed another direction, used her lightness skills to climb up the wall, and went back to Flower Street.

He had just circled around to the brothel he had just been to when his terrestrial listening technique detected the voices of three men talking: "Could that little beast have seen us?"

"Don't be so suspicious. He's never seen us brothers before. He might glance over occasionally, and even if he thinks we're a little eye-catching, he won't think too much of it."

"We've been following them all the way here so hard. We can't let ourselves be exposed just because we came to a brothel. There are so many idle men here. We're just ordinary patrons. How could they guess we're from the Hu family?" Sun Yanwan didn't understand what was going on at first. When he heard that the Hu family...

He immediately perked up a bit, thinking to himself, "The Hu family? Could it really be related to me?"

Just now, Sun Yanwan really noticed that the three people from the Hu family were behaving strangely, so she came back to be more cautious, and she didn't think that it had anything to do with her.

He listened for a while and finally confirmed that Hu Fengkuang, Hu Fengge, and Hu Fengsan had indeed followed him all the way from Taiyi Temple to Chongyang City.

Realizing this, Sun Yanwan broke out in a cold sweat. He had many secret things to do when he returned to the north, and some of them even had to be hidden from Lao Qingshan. If the Hu family found out about his true identity and Miao Youxiu's family in the north, it would be a disaster.

Sun Yanwan thought to himself, "This time, I have to kill someone."

"You three from the Hu family, you're unlucky."

"I'm not a lecherous person. If I hadn't been out for a leisurely stroll at night and hadn't known this was a red-light district, I would never have come here to watch the fun, nor would I have bumped into you."

Sun Yanwan has now been promoted to the fourth rank. If he were being followed by the five elders of the Hu family, he would have definitely run away immediately.

However, the martial arts skills of these three younger generations of the Hu family are far inferior to Hu Fengwei, and Sun Yanwan wants to give it a try.

The three members of the Hu family chose the largest brothel on the street, ordered seven or eight popular girls, and ordered a table full of food and wine. They had already put what had just happened behind them and indulged themselves to their heart's content, dispelling the tiredness of the journey.

The prostitutes they ordered were all very attentive and flattering, making the three men very happy.

Halfway through his drinking, Hu Fengsan suddenly felt the urge to urinate. He went out to ask where the toilet was, staggering in. Just as he unzipped his pants and let the water flow, he felt a chill on his back. Although his martial arts skills were not as good as Hu Fengwei's, he was still a master of the fourth level. His reaction was extremely fast. He let go of his pants, clapped his hands, and used the Hu family's Hunyuan Divine Palm to counter the attacker from behind.

Sun Yanwan's body swayed, and the two of them faced each other with their palms, and on the surface, they were evenly matched.

He activated the Mysterious Ice Treasure Mirror and slapped down again. Hu Fengsan had no time to pull up his pants, and he didn't even have time to turn around. He could only activate the Hunyuan Palm Power and madly send it out behind him. At the same time, he strengthened his throat and shouted loudly: "Seventh Brother, Sixteenth Brother, come and save me!"

Sun Yanwan launched seven palm strikes in a row. Just as he was about to launch the eighth, he heard the sound of someone performing Qinggong in the distance, breaking through the air. Feeling a pity, he thought to himself, "The Hu family's Hunyuan Palm power is indeed quite powerful. They can actually withstand seven of my Xuanbing Baojian's moves."

He didn't want to be besieged by the three people from the Hu family, so he used his lightness skills to climb into the yard next door.

When Hu Fengkuang and Hu Fengge arrived, Sun Yanwan was long gone. They only saw Hu Fengsan with a depressed look on his face. Because he didn't have time to pull his pants off, they fell to the ground and were already stained.

Hu Feng shouted wildly, "Who attacked me?"

Hu Fengsan whispered, "The palm power is extremely cold. It's most likely Sun Yanwan. How did he find out that we brothers were following him?"

Hu Fengkuang and Hu Fengge's faces were gloomy. They didn't expect that Sun Yanwan would come to their door just because they visited a brothel.
