Starting as a stray dog, I embarked on a journey of cultivation.

"What about the other two?" Gou An asked curiously.

"The other two are, martial arts techniques and beautiful women!" Master Wenxu smirked.

"Oh?" Gou An was not surprised.

Master Wenxu continued, "Most of the demons who can cultivate into human form nowadays don't actually know any cultivation techniques; they almost all cultivate and fight based on their demonic instincts."

"And the cultivation methods of humans are not compatible with those of demons, making them difficult to cultivate."

"Therefore, cultivation techniques suitable for demons are even rarer and more precious than elixirs."

Upon hearing this, Gou An couldn't help but recall the cultivation technique he had obtained from Master Fuhai.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out how to knock on the door, but the rascal in the other body was able to cultivate according to the instructions.

So that's the reason.

It wasn't that I was inherently stupid, but rather that the cultivation methods of humans and demons were not interchangeable.

"As for the beauties..." Master Wenxu smirked, "You've probably seen them in the city; the female demon cultivators are all focused on cultivating their transformation techniques, and each one looks more human than the last."

"The reason they make this choice is naturally because they can exchange themselves for a lot of resources; the more beautiful they become, the more valuable they are."

"It's just a pity that no matter how perfectly a female demon cultivates, she still can't compare to the status of a female human cultivator in the city."

Upon hearing this, Gou An immediately asked curiously, "There are also female human cultivators?"

"Of course!" Master Wenxu nodded, "but they are extremely rare, a truly rare sight!"

"I know all of that!" Gou An looked at Master Wenxu and pressed again, "So, besides telling me all this, what else do you want to do by following me here?"

Master Wenxu stated frankly, "As I just mentioned, elixirs are one of the three most valuable items in the city!"

"The three major alchemy halls in our city have reached a tacit agreement: pills will absolutely not be sold at low prices, so as not to disrupt the market!"

"Fellow Daoist, you are new here and may not know the rules, which is understandable."

"I caught up with you to tell you this, hoping that you won't sell pills so cheaply in the future."

After hearing this, Gou An asked curiously, "How much do you price your pills?"

"Take, for example, the average quality Qi-replenishing pills that you just sold, fellow Daoist!" Daoist Wenxu held up one finger.

"One hundred demon gold coins?" Gou An asked curiously.

"No!" Master Wenxu shook his head, "It's one thousand demon gold!"

"What?" Gou An exclaimed in shock!

How could a Qi-replenishing pill of such ordinary quality sell for a thousand demon gold coins in the City of Ten Thousand Demons?

No wonder Manager Bai was so excited back then.

The meal cost 30 gold coins, but the customer paid for it worth tens of thousands of gold coins.

As for the other monsters that had gathered around, Gou An immediately understood why they were so frantic.

Finding a bargain is definitely an exciting thing!

"Furthermore..." Master Wenxu continued, "Fellow Daoist, as a demon cultivator, you are skilled in alchemy!"

"It just so happens that there aren't many demon cultivators in our Ten Thousand Demon City who know alchemy, so I'd like to invite you, fellow cultivator, to become an alchemist at my place, in my capacity as the manager of the Ten Thousand Pill Hall!"

Before Gou An could answer, Master Wenxu continued, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to rush to refuse. Being an alchemist can be very lucrative."

"I'll think about it!" Gou An neither agreed nor refused.

Seeing this, Master Wenxu did not press the matter further, but simply took out a jade token from his robes and placed it on the table.

"Tonight I'll be going to the Crimson Moon Pavilion for drinks and to seek the Dao!" Master Wenxu smiled slightly. "Fellow Daoist, you're welcome to visit the pavilion as well. It's a unique feature of the Myriad Demon City, so don't miss it."

He then got up and left.

After Gou An had completely left, he picked up the jade tablet to examine it.

The jade plaque was nothing special, except that it was engraved with the words "Crimson Moon".

Scarlet Moon Pavilion?

What does it do?

When the waiter approached, Gou An called out to him under the pretext of ordering some wine, and took the opportunity to ask, "Fellow Daoist, do you know what the Crimson Moon Pavilion is?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter immediately replied excitedly, "Crimson Moon Pavilion! That's the most luxurious restaurant in our Demon City! It's full of beautiful female demons, and every night it's brightly lit and incredibly extravagant."

At this point, the waiter sighed and continued, "It's a pity that the cost of going in once is not low. We lowly demons don't have that much money to enjoy ourselves. We can only look at it from the outside and have a good look at it."

Upon hearing this, Gou An immediately understood what the Scarlet Moon Pavilion was.

To put it bluntly, it's a nightclub in the City of Ten Thousand Demons!

It's the highest-end kind.

"So that's how it is!"

Gou An shook his head and couldn't help but sneer.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that Gou An was no ordinary monster.

Are you so easily fooled by a little temptation?

"Crimson Moon Pavilion!" Gou An stroked the words on the jade tablet with his fingers, his brows furrowing slightly.

That night!

The Scarlet Moon Pavilion was brightly lit and extremely luxurious, and its entrance was already overflowing with women.

Eight incredibly muscular monsters stood guard in front of the building, each one a ferocious beast in human form, like a tiger, lion, or leopard.

Any monster wishing to enter the building must have its token checked one by one.

The so-called token was the jade tablet that Master Wenxu gave to Gou An.

Although there are many monsters at the entrance, only a few of them are qualified to enter.

Most of the monsters just joined in the fun at the entrance.

The jade token used to enter and exit the Scarlet Moon Pavilion needs to be purchased in advance with a large amount of demon gold.

Only with this jade token can one enter the Scarlet Moon Pavilion.

The Scarlet Moon Tower is also divided into six different levels.

Entering with a jade token only allows you to experience the first level.

To reach the higher levels, one needs to spend even more demonic gold.

"If only I could get a Flying Tower token jade pendant for free!" A duck-billed monster nearby couldn't help but sigh.

"Dream on! A single jade pendant is worth 20,000 demon gold coins! If a demon really lost it, would you even have a chance to pick it up?"

"Isn't it amazing? With this jade token, I can eat, drink, and have fun to my heart's content on the first floor of the Crimson Moon Pavilion tonight, without spending a single coin of demon gold! How wonderful!"

Just then, Gou An suddenly appeared beside them and couldn't help but ask.

"You mean, once you have the token, you can enjoy the privileges for free after entering?"

"Of course!" the duck-billed monster nodded. "It's just that the jade pendant has to be purchased with money, which is equivalent to paying in advance."

"So that's how it is!" Gou An nodded, then squeezed out of the demon horde and headed towards the entrance.

It turns out that once you have this thing, you don't have to spend money to get in, which almost prevented Gou An from coming.

Gou An had previously heard that the Scarlet Moon Pavilion was expensive, and he thought that Daoist Wenxu was a bar scammer trying to trick him into going in and getting ripped off. It turns out he was just overthinking it.

It must be said, however, that the True Man of Questioning the Void was remarkably accurate in judging demons.

He actually fooled himself into it.

Holding the jade token, Gou An successfully passed the verification at the entrance of Feiyue Tower.

As soon as he stepped through the gate, before Gou An could react, two female demons immediately surrounded him, flanking him from both sides.

"Master Demon, come with us quickly!"

"Your seat has been prepared!"
