A woman with a graceful figure, her skirt slit low, revealing her snow-white shoulders and neck, exuded an aura that constantly attracted men.

There were also two burly men, presumably the young nobleman's bodyguards, each with their own strengths: one excelled in defense, and the other in combat.

In a short while, Huang Yu had a pretty good grasp of the situation of these five people. Even though there were some inaccuracies, he was pretty close to the truth.

Tsk, this person's background is not simple. They have a dedicated bodyguard, beautiful women by their side, and even that crazy witch reveals a hint of intelligence.

So, what are they doing in China?

Judging from their accents, they seem to be French.

Huang Yu asked directly, "Moritz, do you recognize those foreigners?"

Following Huang Yu's gaze, Moritz paused slightly, then said with disgust:

"I don't know them, but I roughly know their background."

"Despicable Frenchmen, eating the flesh and blood of us Germans, oh, they've eaten their fill and are now wandering the world!"

Huang Yu was speechless. What a small world! Unless there was a complete victory, the hatred between Germany and France could not be resolved.

"Do you know what kind of supernatural organization they come from? That young man's identity must be extraordinary."

Moritz took a deep breath and said, "Yes, do you see the emblem on that person? A white rose entwined with thorns. That's the Rozier family crest."

"The Rozier family? Are they some kind of extraordinary family from Europe?"

"Heh, it's not just a family of superhumans, it's also one of the Twenty-Eight Holy Clans."

Moritz said with a hint of sarcasm, “The so-called Twenty-Eight Holy Clans are twenty-eight ancient and powerful families of superhumans in Europe. They have intermarried with each other and their influence has permeated every aspect of the European superhuman world.”

"Simply put, they are the nobles of the European supernatural world."

Huang Yu and the others gasped in shock. There were only four major families in the Chinese supernatural world, yet twenty-eight families suddenly appeared in Europe.

Gu Qiting asked, "Isn't it said that Europe and America are civilized worlds that value equality for all? How come there are still so many nobles?"

Moritz sneered, "That's all your misunderstanding, or rather, you've been misled by propaganda."

"In fact, the West is the place in the world that values ​​lineage the most, and this is especially true as you go up the social ladder."

"You can't get into high-level circles without enough lineage to back you up."

Chapter 197 Holy prostitution, charm

Huang Yu glanced at Moritz and saw that the old man's gritted teeth showed not only hatred for the French, but also disdain for the so-called nobles.

Could it be that he was hurt by nobles in the past?

After listening to Moritz's words, Gu Qiting seemed to be deep in thought.

"I used to think that the developed Western economy should be a civilized, harmonious, and egalitarian world. Now it seems that I was blinded."

"My observations of this world are still not comprehensive enough, and my understanding is still not deep enough."

"In terms of valuing one's origins, we Chinese believe that heroes are not judged by their birth, and that kings and nobles are not born with a special destiny."

"People cannot choose their own birth. In this respect, the West seems less open-minded than we are..."

Huang Yu laughed and said, "We're all human, we all have our own selfish desires and wants, how could the West be perfect?"

"If something is too perfect, it is very likely a lie."

"On this voyage, we still need to break free from our preconceived notions and observe Western society with our own eyes."

Just then, the five Frenchmen also noticed Huang Yu and the others' gazes and turned their eyes over.

The two bodyguards gave each other threatening looks.

The Gypsy witch burst into maniacal laughter and whispered something in the nobleman's ear.

Huang Yu and the others then looked away and lined up to board the ship.

……

After putting away their luggage, Huang Yu and the others went up to the deck.

Actually, I didn't have much luggage. I just carried a few suitcases to make it look like I had anything else. The main things were stored in my storage magic artifact.

On the deck, a cool sea breeze swept over them as the group chatted casually.

Zhang Zhiwei said, "I've learned something new. So this is what it feels like to travel by ship."

Looking at the boundless sea, Wugensheng couldn't help but feel a surge of heroic spirit, and laughed loudly:

"What is this called? Facing the eastern Jieshi Mountain, one can view the vast sea! How calm the waters are, how lofty the mountains and islands stand!"

Gu Qiting said softly, "Brother Wu, you used it wrong... This line of poetry isn't used like that."

"Haha, it's all the same, being happy is the most important thing!"

Huang Yu leaned against the railing, watching this scene with a smile, feeling a sense of relaxation in his mind and body.

call!

A faint fragrance wafted over, and Huang Yu and the others were slightly taken aback as they realized that the French lady from before was walking gracefully towards them.

The woman had long, flowing blonde hair, a long, off-the-shoulder dress draped casually over her shoulders, a flushed face, and misty, alluring eyes as she gazed at Huang Yu and the others.

A pinkish aura enveloped Huang Yu and the others, subtly stirring their primal desires while simultaneously bringing them joy and relaxation.

Zhang Zhiwei chuckled and reminded them, "Brothers, the vixen is coming. Can you hold on?"

Wugensheng stroked his chin and pondered, "Judging from this method, it seems a bit like a seductive technique."

"Among the Quanxing, there are those who practice seductive arts, which can seduce people's desires. Every movement of their bodies can be captivating, and the most skilled can turn others into their puppets."

The so-called art of seduction, simply put, is the secret art of enhancing one's sexual charm, including appearance, temperament, actions, expressions, and so on, so that the opposite sex will fall in love with them without realizing it, obey their every word, and even be willing to give their lives for them.

Xia He, the "Bone-Scraping Knife" of later generations, was a master of seductive arts, but she did not specifically practice seductive arts; rather, she was a naturally gifted individual.

Her special ability is called "Breath of the Muscles," which can amplify the lust of those around her to an infinite degree, causing her opponents to succumb to desire and become crippled.

Even Xia He herself couldn't control this alluring effect; even disguised as an obese middle-aged man, she would still unconsciously arouse the desires of others.

Huang Yu shook his head and said, "It's not just a simple seductive technique; it seems to have a positive effect as well, capable of calming the mind."

"No matter what, using their abilities on us without permission shows they don't take us seriously."

The blonde woman approached and said coquettishly in broken Chinese, "Gentlemen, my name is Sophia. May I introduce myself to you?"

An even more ambiguous atmosphere arose, and she reached out, wanting to touch Huang Yu and the others' bodies.

"The journey is long, but perhaps we can have a pleasant trip..."

"We can do some very comfortable things."

hum!

The next moment, Sofia's body was lifted into the air, and it felt as if her internal organs and neck were being squeezed tightly by someone's hands!

call!

It hurts! I can't breathe!

Sofia was a little flustered. What was going on? This shouldn't be happening!

Even if these men weren't controlled by her, they should still have developed feelings for her.

At the very least, they would never lay a hand on her; that's a characteristic of her school of thought!

"Mr. Huang, please do not lay a hand on Miss Sophia. She means no harm."

The ocean magician Daniel stepped forward to stop him, his eyes glazed over, his breathing rapid, and his lower body burning with lust.

Snapped!

A slap came, and Daniel was knocked to the ground by Moritz.

Moritz scoffed, "Fool, you're being influenced by others and you don't even realize it."

He took a deep breath, suppressed his own desires, and said to Huang Yu, "Mr. Huang, I'm sorry, Daniel is still young and full of vigor."

Huang Yu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Moritz, do you know what this woman's abilities are?"

Moritz glanced at Sophia, who was floating in the air: "She should be from the lineage of the Holy Prostitute."

"Holy prostitute?"

"Yes, the term 'holy prostitute' originally referred to female clergy who served the gods in temples. Later, it gradually evolved into a practice where pilgrims had sexual relations during specific rituals, and the money earned during the night belonged to the temple."

Moritz said in a deep voice, "This kind of intercourse was regarded at the time as a sacred offering, that is, the cooperation between man and God, which could please the gods."

"Ah, the participants also believe that this is a way of showing reverence to God through the body."

"As things have evolved in modern times, the role of worshipping deities has gradually weakened, and prostitutes have played a more social role."

"That is, to use one's own charm to make connections and to use self-sacrifice to exchange for external resources and support for one's own faction."

Huang Yu said with understanding, "I see. In the end, they are just prostitutes used for trading."

Zhang Zhiwei and the others all frowned. Such disgraceful acts have occurred repeatedly throughout Chinese history.

The four most famous schools are: Yangzhou "Slender Horses," Datong "Women," Taishan "Nuns," and West Lake "Boat Girls"...

All of these aimed to train women from the lower classes to become qualified commodities and playthings, serving the upper classes such as wealthy merchants, officials, and intellectuals.

For example, the most infamous Yangzhou "slender horse" practice divided young girls into three classes.

Girls with the best qualifications will be taught music, chess, calligraphy, painting, various arts and crafts, as well as exquisite makeup skills and physical training.

Girls of second-class qualifications can also read some words and play some music, but they are mainly trained to become accounting talents, know how to keep accounts and manage affairs, so as to assist businessmen and become good assistants.

Girls of third-class qualifications were not allowed to learn to read; they were instead taught needlework, tailoring, or "deep-frying, steaming, baking, arranging fruit, each with their own skills," and were trained to become qualified housewives.

Just like selling mobile phones, we offer a full range of products—high-end, mid-range, and low-end—with precise marketing. Don't miss out!

Of course, many boys were also harmed.

Theatrical troupes in the capital city had a method of raising young actors.

The troupe leader would go to the Jiangnan region to select boys with regular features, beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and fair skin, and train them to learn to speak, walk and see.

Nominally, they were learning opera, but in reality, most of them became playmates for high-ranking officials, literati, and scholars at banquets.
