Dual-wielding! 100x proficiency, I'll grind my way to godhood!

The next day, just as dawn broke, Chen Mo prepared to set off.

The four women saw him off at the courtyard gate, each clamoring to go with him.

"no."

Chen Mo shook his head and refused.

"I'll go to the restroom by myself. You guys are too weak. If something really happens, I'll have to take care of you."

Shangguan Hong nodded.

Go early and come back early.

Xu Wanqing stepped forward, straightened his clothes, and gently gave him some instructions.

"When you're out and about, always be careful."

Su Yue didn't say anything, she just stood there quietly watching him.

Qingzhu ran up behind him.

"Young master! Next time you go out, you absolutely have to take me with you!"

Chen Mo reached out and pinched her little face.

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely bring it next time."

He took out more than a dozen bottles of elixirs from his bronze ring and distributed them to the four women.

"You all stay home and cultivate diligently. I will take you out when you break through to the Grandmaster level."

After saying that, he waved to the four women, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.

Qingzhu held five or six bottles of pills in her hand, muttering to herself.

"Where have I seen this scene before?"

After leaving the village, Chen Mo took out a map to confirm the direction, then flew directly to high altitude to retrieve the fighter jet.

Walking is impossible, let alone flying by consuming internal energy; that would take forever.

He ignited the fighter jet's engine and sped towards the capital.

Just as the second fighter jet was running out of fuel, a blurry outline finally appeared on the horizon.

It stretches as far as the eye can see, it's ridiculously huge.

It is in no way smaller than those modern cities on Earth.

A gray outer ring, surrounded by a circular line.

It should be the city wall.

Fly closer and you'll see there's a ring of tiny dots inside.

In the very center, there is something reflecting the sunlight, shimmering and sparkling – it is a whole expanse of glazed tiles.

The location and the pomp and circumstance were obvious.

It must be the imperial palace.

After flying for a while, and seeing that he was about to approach the border of the capital, he put away his fighter jet and landed in a deserted forest.

He straightened his clothes, walked onto the main road, and mingled with the crowds entering the city.

People carrying loads, driving carts, and traveling with their families all marched in a grand procession, heading in the same direction.

The shouts, the sound of cart wheels, and the steam rising from the roadside tea stalls all rushed towards me.

The closer you get to the city gate, the more crowded it becomes, and the queue stretches for a long distance.

Only when you get closer can you see the true face of the city wall.

It is about 20 meters high. Looking up, the huge wall looms over you, making it hard to breathe.

The city gate was heavily guarded, with soldiers in armor and armed with swords standing in rows, ramrod straight.

Chen Mo sized up the aura of the highest-ranking official and raised an eyebrow.

Transformation into the Realm of Truth!

This level of strength would be equivalent to that of a county governor in other counties.

The county magistrate of Lin'an City is only this capable!

But even if that county magistrate came here, he could only guard the gate at best.

I don't need to think much about what it's like inside; today I've witnessed firsthand what it means to be surrounded by experts.

Yet he didn't reveal any of his sharpness; he concealed his aura completely, his expression remained calm and ordinary, blending into the group and looking no different from the ordinary people around him.

Today, he is just an ordinary outsider who came to the city.

The garrison's job was simply to collect entry fees, verify identities, and prevent criminals from sneaking into the city.

He has a household registration certificate from the Dayuan Dynasty, which was issued to him by Wang Fucheng, and the verification was successful.

Soon it was his turn. He paid the entrance fee, had his identity documents checked, and the guard casually waved him through.

The city streets were wide, bustling with people, and carriages came and went one after another.

The houses and shops on both sides were crowded together, with their signs fluttering in the wind.

The shouts of vendors selling steamed buns, making dough figurines, and performing acrobatics rose and fell.

It's even better than what's shown on TV.

Chen Mo strolled around while making plans.

Being in an unfamiliar place, the most important thing is to get information.

If you want to get information, there are only two places to go.

Either a restaurant or a brothel.

His lips curled into a smirk.

Is there even a need to choose?

Definitely choose the brothel!

He stopped a passerby on the street and asked him about the most famous brothel in the capital.

After finding out the route, they headed straight in that direction.

I hadn't gone far when I looked up and saw that my destination was right in front of me.

What a magnificent Star-Picking Tower!

The seven-story building has layers upon layers of eaves, and lanterns and colorful ribbons are hung from top to bottom.

Even in broad daylight, it exudes an air of wealth and luxury.

A dozen or so girls stood outside the building, dressed in their finest clothes, smiling at everyone they saw.

On the railings of the second and third floors, a group of girls were laughing and waving to passersby below.

His height and appearance were so outstanding that he stood out in a crowd.

Before he even got close, the girls greeting guests at the entrance had already spotted him.

The group's eyes lit up instantly, and they swarmed around him, grabbing his arms and pulling him into the building while chattering incessantly.

"This young master is exceptionally handsome!"

"Young master, are you from out of town?"

"Come in and rest with us!"

The older girl who was leading the group smiled and stepped forward, pushing her group of sisters aside.

"Ouch! Let go! Let go! You're so rough, you'll tear the young master's clothes!"

As she spoke, she moved closer to Chen Mo, her eyebrows curving into two crescent moons.

"Young master, you seem to be from out of town? Is this your first time visiting our Star-Picking Tower? With your imposing presence standing here, everyone else on the street pales in comparison."

Chen Mo laughed heartily.

"Just because of your silver tongue, I'm definitely going to go inside and sit down at the Star-Picking Tower today."

The group of girls burst into laughter and crowded around him as he walked into the building.

Chen Mo neither dodged nor refused, but followed the group of girls in with an open and generous manner, secretly making his own assessments.

This quality is far superior to that of Lin'an City.

The private rooms are located on the third floor.

The table was laden with food and wine, and people leisurely enjoyed the traditional music.

The girl asked him out of curiosity what kind of business he did.

Chen Mo made it up on the spot.

"He travels around doing odd things and curiosities."

"No wonder!"

The girl clapped her hands.

"Judging from your demeanor and speech, I know you are no ordinary businessman."

"That's not right."

Chen Mo shook his head, his expression serious.

"Ordinary businessmen can't afford this kind of food and drink."

The people at the table burst into laughter, some falling over as they lay on the ground.

As soon as he said something, the girls burst into laughter;

The girls teased him, and he responded calmly, creating a lively atmosphere.

After a few rounds of drinks, Chen Mo was about to steer the conversation toward serious matters when the girl leaning against him started chatting first.

"Young master, your timing is perfect."

The woman on his left poured him a drink, her tone a mix of pride and envy, "It just so happens that our top courtesan is singing."

"Oh?"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow.

The one on the right continued:

"She's not someone anyone can just see whenever they want. All the important figures in the capital, officials and noblemen, line up to give her money, just to hear her sing a song and have a chat with her."

Chen Mo put down his wine glass and casually asked:

"So, what are the procedures for seeing this older sister of yours?"
