Spring Jade Pavilion was located beside Spring Jade Lake in the northern district of the five cities.
In the deep night, the brightly lit Spring Jade Pavilion looked exceptionally grand. There was an endless stream of people and carriages in front of the entrance. The people who came and went were all gorgeously dressed, making the place extraordinarily bustling.
Before Gao Zhengyang and the others entered, they could hear the sounds of singing and dancing.
"What a lively place …"
Yuan Zhen had been in the Heavenly Horse Temple all this while. The most lively place he had been to was the Zhao Clan's garden. He had never seen such a scene before. For a moment, Yuan Zhen felt like his eyes were not enough. She pulled on Gao Zhengyang's sleeves and spoke in a low voice, her actions becoming more cautious.
Gao Zhengyang rubbed Yuan Zhen's head and smiled. "It's good that it's lively. There will definitely be all sorts of delicious food inside. "
Yuan Zhen was a foodie. The moment he heard about delicious food, his eyes lit up. He also felt less repulsed by the Spring Jade Pavilion.
"The Spring Jade Pavilion is located in the center of Tianyue City and is considered a famous restaurant. It has all sorts of food … "
Zhou Yu, who was at the side, gently shook his fiery-colored jade scepter as he introduced the place intimately. Zhou Yu wanted to rope in Gao Zhengyang. Although he did not care much about Yuan Zhen, he could lower himself to speak to him.
This group of people had extraordinary auras, especially Zhou Yu and Zhou Yunting. Based on their clothes and bearing, one could tell that they were the children of nobles. A neatly dressed attendant immediately came over and bowed in greeting. "Esteemed guests, please come in."
"Earth Room 2. We already made a reservation, "a guard said to the attendant as he walked over.
The attendant bowed even lower. Those who could reserve an Earth Room were not ordinary nobles.
The attendant led the way, and the group entered the hall on the first floor.
The hall was three hundred meters wide. The floor was made of fine, high-quality wood. Under the illumination of many crystal lamps, it looked like one's reflection.
The chairs were made of even higher quality red sandalwood, arranged around a square platform in the center of the hall. The private rooms on the second and third floors surrounded the hall, forming a huge patio.
At this moment, a group of young women dressed in translucent muslin dresses danced on the platform to the melodious music.
The group of spectators below the hall would burst into cheers from time to time. People in the private rooms on the second and third floors also threw flowers at the platform. Amidst the passion, there was also a strong sense of extravagance.
The design of the entire Jade Spring Building was luxurious and ingenious. If an ordinary person were to enter, they would definitely feel restricted and not know where to put their hands and feet.
Yuan Zhen's eyes widened when he saw the young women dancing.
He was young and innocent, so he had never seen such a thing before. Her face quickly turned red, and she hurriedly closed her eyes and began to chant Buddhist scriptures, "As I have heard …"
"The little monk came here to enlighten all living beings …" Zhou Yunting couldn't help but laugh tenderly. This little baldy was really interesting.
Fang Wenxiu and the others also laughed. Yuan Zhen's reaction was indeed interesting.
Gao Zhengyang rubbed Yuan Zhen's head in amusement. This junior brother of his was really simple.
Zhou Yu was afraid that Gao Zhengyang would lose face, so he hurriedly changed the topic, "That high platform in the center is not only used for singing, dancing, and opera performances, but it also frequently holds martial and sword competitions. Some famous experts would sometimes fight to the death here. "
Gao Zhengyang was a little surprised. Martial and sword competitions were normal, but it was not normal to fight to the death in such an extravagant place for seeking pleasure.
"The Jade Spring Building also auctions some Medicinal Pills, secret manuals, and other valuable items …"
After a pause, Zhou Yu lowered his voice and said to Gao Zhengyang, "The faction behind this place is very powerful. They are also famous in Tianyue City. If Venerable has any special needs, you can seek their help. "
Gao Zhengyang nodded, roughly understanding what kind of place the Jade Spring Building was.
The group went up to the second floor. Before they could enter a private room, they ran into a group of people in the long corridor.
"Young Marquis Zhou, it has been a long time. How are you?"
A young Daoist priest in the lead asked with a mocking expression as he blocked Zhou Yu.
This Daoist priest had thin eyebrows and long eyes. His hair was tied up in a high bun, and he exuded a sharp air.
The Daoist priest's aqua blue Daoist robes looked like they were cut out of water. They were soft and glossy, rippling with the movements of his body. The Daoist priest looked extremely gorgeous.
Six or seven people stood behind the Daoist priest, all of them young. A group of people blocked the corridor, obviously not wanting Zhou Yu to pass.
Gao Zhengyang did not need to ask to know that this must be Zhou Yu's enemy.
Zhou Yu's expression was a little ugly. He probably did not expect to meet them here. Being provoked in front of Gao Zhengyang made it even more difficult for him to back down.
"Shi Xuantong, don't go too far." Zhou Yunting stood up and scolded him. Her willowy eyebrows were raised, and her charming face was filled with anger.
The young Daoist priest, Shi Xuantong, did not want to quarrel with a woman. That would be too embarrassing. He said to Zhou Yu, "What's wrong? Young Marquis Zhou doesn't even dare to speak?"
Zhou Yu's face was tense, and he said coldly, "Shi Xuantong, I have an important guest today. We can talk about this another day."
Shi Xuantong glanced at Gao Zhengyang. He hated Buddhism to begin with, and the other party was Zhou Yu's guest. His gaze became a little more judgmental and sharp.
"There's actually a monk in Tianyue City? How rare." Shi Xuantong said bluntly, "Who are you?"
Gao Zhengyang smiled and ignored Shi Xuantong. The other party was clearly provoking him, so there was no need for him to respond.
"He doesn't even have a name. I wonder where this wild monk came from." Shi Xuantong said indifferently, "Right now, they are investigating the monk's records. You have to be careful. Don't get caught."
Zhou Yu's expression became even colder. "Shi Xuantong, are you trying to cause trouble here?"
"Hehe, why? You want to fight?"
Shi Xuantong smiled proudly and pointed to the high platform in the courtyard. "There's an arena below. If you're not happy, let's go down and fight."
Zhou Yu had been injured by Shi Xuantong a while ago and had to rest at home for half a month to recover. He did not have the courage to fight Shi Xuantong. He was so angry that his face turned green, but he did not dare to accept the challenge.
"My brother hasn't recovered yet. I'll fight you," Zhou Yunting said unyieldingly.
Fang Wenxiu panicked when she heard this. She quickly pulled on Zhou Yunting's sleeve. What a joke. She was a marquis's daughter. If word got out that she fought a man in the Jade Spring Brothel's arena, it would become a huge joke.
Shi Xuantong also felt slightly stunned. He had not expected Zhou Yunting to be so shrewish. He was confident that he could win, but if he bullied a woman in public, even if he won, it wouldn't be honorable.
However, the people behind Shi Xuantong started jeering.
"Is the Zhou Clan out of people? Sending a woman up …"
"Miss Zhou is really shrewish. Tsk tsk …"
Zhou Yunting was so angry that her face turned purple. She placed her hand on the sword at her waist, wanting to draw her sword and kill these people.
"A group of men bullying a woman. How shameless!" Yuan Zhen could not stand it anymore, so he cursed loudly.
"Little monk, don't seek death," a tall, fierce-looking man behind Shi Xuantong reprimanded with a glare.
In Gao Zhengyang's opinion, both sides were just wimpy kids. All that provocation and scolding were very childish. Gao Zhengyang did not know what was going on, and it had nothing to do with Zhou Yu, so he did not want to interfere. However, he could not bully Yuan Zhen.
"Benefactor, what a strong hostility," Gao Zhengyang said as he walked over.
When Shi Xuantong saw Gao Zhengyang charging over, as if he did not see him at all, anger involuntarily appeared on his face.
Shi Xuantong formed a sword finger and sent a Primordial Fixing Needle at Gao Zhengyang's chest. The Primordial Fixing Needle was a sword technique that focused Essence on a single point. It was best at breaking through a single point.
Gao Zhengyang casually waved his hand, and the Primordial Fixing Needle, which contained tremendous force, was sent to the side. The irresistible force pushed Shi Xuantong back involuntarily.
The people behind Shi Xuantong hurriedly supported him. However, no one expected Shi Xuantong to push back with such a strong force.
The people felt like a moving mountain had crashed into them, forcing them to move back as well.
The tall man who spoke harshly tried to hold on. However, the force coming from Shi Xuantong grew stronger with each wave.
The tall man only managed to hold on for a while before his entire body went limp. When Shi Xuantong rammed into him again, he tumbled back like a rolling gourd.
The others did not try to be brave and could barely support Shi Xuantong. However, they could not stand up no matter what. They staggered back more than ten steps and only managed to stop when they leaned against the railing of the corridor.
Zhou Yu, Zhou Yunting, and the others were all shocked. They could not wrap their heads around what was happening.
Shi Xuantong was a mid-grade fifth rank cultivator and was quite famous among the younger generation. Zhou Yu had been suppressed by Shi Xuantong all this time, which was why he thought of finding a few more helpers.
No one expected that Gao Zhengyang, who was also a fifth rank cultivator, would be able to suppress a group of people with just a casual move.
It was as if he was crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
Zhou Yu's eyes lit up with joy after his shock. Zhou Yunting and the others were also pleasantly surprised.
The two guards, on the other hand, wore cautious and solemn expressions. Gao Zhengyang's tyrannical strength made them feel somewhat uneasy.
"Hurry up and lead the way." Wu Tao was very quick-witted. He shouted to the attendant beside him, breaking the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
The attendant also seemed to wake up from a dream as he hurriedly led Gao Zhengyang and the others forward.
Shi Xuantong and the others who were leaning against the railing were pale, but no one dared to make a sound.
Even now, everyone's bones were still numb and they could not muster any strength. The difference between them and the other party was too great. If they made a sound, they would only be inviting humiliation.
When Zhou Yunting passed Shi Xuantong, she could not help but mock him harshly, "Daoist Priest Shi, why did you roll and crawl? Are you putting on a monkey show? "
Without waiting for Shi Xuantong to speak, Zhou Yunting left with a smug smile. Shi Xuantong was so angry that his vision turned black, but there was nothing he could do.
After Zhou Yunting and the others entered the private room, Shi Xuantong and the others slowly stood up.
"Who is that monk? He's too strong!" Shi Xuantong rubbed his wrist. Just a light touch had caused his forearm and wrist to swell up and his bones to almost break.
The surrounding people shook their heads. There were very few monks in Tianyue City to begin with. If they had seen someone as graceful as Gao Zhengyang, they would definitely remember him. Furthermore, his fist technique was too strong. It was impossible for him to be unknown.
"He should be a foreign monk," said the tall man. After some thought, he said with an odd expression, "Look at his fist technique. It looks like the Vajra Fist."
"Impossible. How can a low-level fist technique like the Vajra Fist have such might!?"
"Impossible!"
The others disagreed. What a joke. If the Vajra Fist was so powerful, it wouldn't be so widespread that even children could take a few blows from it.
Someone else said, "Who cares what fist technique it is? He's stronger than us. What do we do now? "
Everyone looked at Shi Xuantong, waiting for him to make a decision.
Shi Xuantong snapped, "What's the point of looking at me?" He paused and revealed a fierce expression. "No, I can't lose face. I'll go find Senior Brother … "
