After transforming into a fairy, I, in my simulation, wreaked havoc in the cultivation world.

The onlookers cast mocking glances, showing no surprise whatsoever; clearly, such acts of forcibly seizing a Daoist partner were commonplace here.

"Senior, I can only handle two."

[Han Xuan's voice transmitted to his ear; his body was ramrod straight, clearly uncomfortable with your intimate behavior.]

You inwardly rolled your eyes. You knew this kid's fighting ability very well, especially his escape technique; he could easily handle these three burly men at around the seventh level of Qi Refining.

He's just too steady.

[Sigh~ Xiao Fanzi's personality is so easy to handle. In this situation, you wouldn't even need to say a word; he would have already charged forward with his greatsword.]

"Okay, I'll take care of the last one."

You replied telepathically, your gaze fixed on the two guards leaning against the city gate watching the commotion, your gentle voice softly ringing out.

"Guard, is it okay to kill people in the city?"

The two guards perked up at your shout, their previously amused gazes instantly vanishing, replaced by serious, businesslike expressions.

"Little beauty, while killing is permitted within the city, there are clear prices. A life belonging to a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator costs five hundred low-grade spirit stones. Furthermore, all belongings on the dead belong to Forget-Worry City. If you cannot pay..."

One of them grinned and looked you up and down.

"That's going to be a real ordeal."

【five hundred!!!】

The murderous intent in your heart suddenly vanished, and your eyes became much clearer. You can tease me, but you absolutely cannot take money from me!

【"Tch~"

Upon hearing your question, the slick-haired man at the head of the group gave a disdainful smile.

"You think you can kill me?"

They have four late-stage Qi Refining experts on their side, four against two, the advantage is clearly in our hands!

"Brother Han Xuan~ Did you hear that? No need to kill him, just beat him up!"

[You didn't even glance at the man, but instead, with a smile, you reached out and precisely pinched the soft flesh of the person next to you at the waist, and as his expression gradually contorted, you said, word by word.]

"Okay, okay!"

Satisfied, you released your grip, took a few light steps back to a safe distance, intending to be a quiet and beautiful girl.

Han Xuan stepped forward reluctantly. Without a word, a cold glint appeared in his sleeve, and several silver beams shot out into the air.

At the same time, he moved with lightning speed, instantly appearing beside the nearest burly man, his broken blade aimed precisely at the man's vulnerable armpit.

【"Hiss~"】

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh rang out, and just as the man was about to scream, a powerful punch imbued with spiritual energy slammed into his chin.

【"Click!"】

The sound of bones breaking is crisp and pleasant.

The man was then sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and instantly losing consciousness.

At this moment, the two burly men who had just shaken off the hidden weapons finally arrived, but Han Xuan easily toyed with them using his uncanny agility. In just a few exchanges, they were knocked to the ground one after another, unable to get up.

The slick-haired man, sensing danger, tried to slip behind the crowd, but suddenly felt a chill on his neck; a long, gleaming sword was firmly pressed against it.

He glanced sideways and saw you holding the hilt of your sword, smiling at him. He trembled and almost knelt down.

The man knew all too well how worthless human life was in this City of Forgetfulness.

Even if he were to lie dead on the spot today, and my small Foundation Establishment family found out, they would be unable to enter the Joyful Union Sect to avenge him afterwards.

Even if they could actually get revenge, what good would it do?

Now that he's dead, all the delicacies and fine wines are no longer his concern. What will become of those fairies and beauties who need his help?

So he knelt down.

With a "thud," the decisiveness of the action shocked all the onlookers.

"Beautiful...no, fairy, spare me!"

A flicker of surprise crossed your eyes. This kid's got guts and a knack for adapting; he's got talent.

"What's your name?"

"Replying to the fairy, this humble one is Li Youcai."

The man's smile was genuine, but because he was trying too hard, the thick layer of powder on his face cracked open in several places, making him look rather comical.

How much do you know about this City of Forgetfulness?

Upon hearing this, a hint of arrogance flashed across Li Youcai's face.

"To be honest, Your Highness, I know the price of every fairy in this city perfectly well!"

You paused for a moment, resisting the urge to slap this guy away.

"Lead the way, arrange accommodations for us, and compile all the information you know into jade slips and give them to me."

[You paused, a hint of annoyance flashing in your eyes, and gritted your teeth, saying:]

"Except for those in brothels!"

Ah, you should have been a carefree wanderer too...

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Feeling a chill run down his spine, Li Youcai knelt down again with a thud, kowtowing repeatedly.

Just then, out of the corner of your eye, you noticed Han Xuan peeking over, and a gentle smile immediately spread across your face.

"Brother Han Xuan, do you also want to go to a brothel?"

[Han Xuan: I feel like I'm about to die...]

【Humph! 】

[You scoff, "If I can't go, then nobody else can go!"]

【...】

Although the city gates of Forget-Me-Not City appear quite simple and shabby, the buildings inside are surprisingly exquisite.

[Li Youcai is very efficient; in just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, you have checked into the most tranquil and elegant restaurant in Forget-Worry City.]

Its name is "Forget-Worry".

The entire restaurant is constructed using a type of sacred wood called "fragrant bamboo," and a faint, pleasant fragrance permeates the air year-round, bringing peace and tranquility.

You lean against the second-floor window and look out. Behind the restaurant lies a shallow pond, with willow branches drooping over its surface, occasionally creating ripples—a scene of serene tranquility.

[You feel a momentary daze; this place doesn't feel like a demonic cultivation ground, but rather like a secluded paradise.]

Just then, a head peeked in through the door, its furtive eyes darting left and right.

It was indeed Li Youcai.

"Give it to me."

[With a flick of your wrist, the jade slip landed in your palm. Your divine sense probed into it, and a flood of information poured into your consciousness.]

Forget-Worry City is one of the cities under the jurisdiction of Forget-Worry Immortal of the Joyful Union Sect.

Legend has it that the immortal was born in this place, and thus adopted the city's name as his Taoist title.

The miscellaneous service area of ​​the Hehuan Sect is jointly managed by three Golden Core elders, one of whom is the Forget-Worry True Person.

The person in charge of the assessment this time was a Foundation Establishment stage servant supervisor, a descendant of a nephew of the Forgetful True Person's clan. This man had an extremely bad reputation; relying on his sect's background, he was known for his debauchery and womanizing.

"A fairy."

Li Youcai stood outside the door, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

【"explain."】

Your slender fingers were playing with the jade slip as you looked up at him.

"The manager in charge of this assessment... given your looks, he'll most likely have his eye on you."

He lowered his voice and said in a serious tone:

"Why don't you two choose another city for the assessment? There's still time."

【"Um?"】

You raised an eyebrow, showing some interest.

Why did you remind me?

[You can tell that the other party genuinely wanted to tell you this news; otherwise, they wouldn't have bothered to record it in the jade slip and then specifically remind you again.]

Upon hearing this, Li Youcai patted his chest and said righteously:

"While I, Li, also appreciate beautiful women, I would never force anyone."

"Was that at the city gate just now?"

You looked at him with a half-smile.

"Ahem~ That's because the fairy is just too beautiful. I thought that little... Brother Han wasn't good enough for you."

You chuckled softly, neither confirming nor denying his words.

[Excessively licentious and lustful...]

I'm kind of looking forward to it!
