The Red Pavilion Tower rises from the Fairy's Capital, singing and dancing.
Ji Yaoyu leaned lightly on the couch, listening to the melodious singing and dancing coming from downstairs. Suddenly, she heard melodious footsteps, followed by the sound of the door opening.
"Yue 'er, you're back. How did it go?" Ji Yaoyu asked. There was no need to knock, only her sister could enter and exit her room.
But when she looked up, she was surprised to see someone in front of her. Ji Yaoyu stood up and bowed. "Auntie, why are you here?"
The person in front of her was a woman in palace attire. She was tall and her age was indiscernible. Her face was not exceptionally beautiful, but she was still an outstanding beauty. It was just that her calm and cold eyes, as well as her peerless and independent demeanor, made her looks only serve as a foil to her beauty. This woman was the Aunty that Ji Yaoyu mentioned, the world-famous dancer Gong Sun Lan. The Twelve Squares of the Red Pavilion were founded by her, and were spread across twelve famous cities. This Luo Yang Square could be considered her private property, so it was no wonder that she could enter without an invitation. She should still be in Chang 'an Square, but she did not know when she came to Luo Yang.
First Madame Gong Sun looked at her coldly and avoided the bow, "I don't dare. I'm just a dancer, how can I be worthy of the Master of Sky Incense Valley's bow."
Ji Yaoyu's expression changed slightly, "Aunty, when did you find out?"
First Madame Gongsun said: "Ji Xiangzhu's words seem to be belittling me. Although the Twelve Districts of the Red Pavilion are not some secret places, since I have appointed you as the District Master of the Luoyang District, I have to investigate your background. I have been very clear about your background since the beginning. But I've never told you, do you know why? "
Ji Yaoyu said, "I don't know, please tell me, Aunty."
"Because it's not important. The Red Pavilion has its own rules. As long as one is skilled in singing, dancing, and the zither, and has passed the entrance test, they will be a member of the Red Pavilion. It doesn't matter if you're a talented girl in distress, a prostitute, a human or a demon, a lonely person, or someone with ulterior motives. In my eyes, it makes no difference."
With a bitter smile, Ji Yaoyu asked, "Then why did Aunty want to separate from Yaoyu today?"
"Of course it's because you broke the rules. First Madame Gongsun said calmly, "Does Incense Master Ji know why I founded the Twelve Workshops of the Red Pavilion?"
"Aunty takes pity on the singers and dancers who are like duckweed, unable to have freedom, so I established the Red Pavilion to give them a place to rest. As long as the women of the Red Pavilion are not treated lightly, it provides the weak women of this world a chance to change their fate." Ji Yaoyu said.
First Madame Gongsun laughed at herself and said, "So in their eyes, I'm already so great. But has Master Ji ever thought, if I really pity them, why would I set up a talent test? Only those who pass the test can receive my protection? And those who don't pass the test, even if they become mud and dust, I won't be moved in the slightest. Singers and dancers are already the lowest of the low, yet I differentiate between good and bad for them. Is this considered pity for them? "
Ji Yaoyu frowned, she'd never thought about this before. She said, "Then I wonder what Aunty's intention is?"
"There are thousands of singers in this world, and I'm only one of them, how can I protect all of them? What I protect is not them, but the inheritance and prosperity of the culture of song and dance. Every woman who passes my test is a treasure of the way of song and dance. Every one of them is precious and has the opportunity to bring new changes to the song and dance of this world. And the women who don't pass will also work hard to improve their skills in order to change their duckweed fate. As long as the Red Pavilion exists, the song and dance of this world will improve. A human's life is not more than a hundred years, a dynasty is not more than a hundred generations, but a culture can be passed down for thousands of years. Compared to it, we are just passers-by. "As she said this, a dazzling radiance appeared on her face. Her cold eyes hid the fanaticism of a martyr, as if she had an indescribable pride for what she'd done.
Ji Yaoyu was also an outstanding singer and dancer, but she couldn't help but be speechless. She thought to herself, "No wonder she's the only one who's touched the threshold of the way of song and dance. Her fanaticism for dance is no less than the Sword God's fanaticism for the sword."
First Madame Gongsun continued, "I know your identity, and I know that you intend to use the power of others, but I still let you enter the Red Pavilion, and even made you the owner of Luoyang Workshop. It's because of your talent in the way of song and dance. But now, you want to destroy the Red Pavilion!"
Ji Yaoyu said, "Aunty, please understand. Yaoyu may be a demon, and her thoughts are not pure, but she has no intention of destroying the Red Pavilion."
First Madame Gongsun said, "Do you know what holds the Red Pavilion together? It's not our martial arts, but four words, 'blood for blood'. No matter if it's a noble of the royal family, or a celestial being, those who humiliate the women of the Red Pavilion must pay with blood. It's because of these four words that it became the temple that the songstress yearned for. But if one day, they realize that the Red Pavilion no longer protects them, and they give up on the Red Pavilion, that will be the beginning of the destruction of the Twelve Squares of the Red Pavilion."
At this point, Ji Yaoyu naturally understood her intention. She lowered her head and said, "Aunty, I didn't mean to delay the death of Hong Jin and the others, but there were many twists and turns in the process. Aunty, please give me a few more days, Yaoyu will definitely take care of the matter."
First Madame Gongsun stared at her for a long time without saying a word. Finally, she sighed and said, "It's a pity that your thoughts are too complicated and burdened with too much, wasting your excellent talent. Otherwise, it wouldn't be difficult for you to enter the path of Dao through dance!" Then, she turned and left. As she was leaving, she said, "Although your motives in the past were not pure, you were able to abide by the rules of the Red Pavilion. The women of Luoyang Square also rely on your protection. Based on these, I can wait for you for another twenty days. If you can't resolve the matter after twenty days, then I will end all those who broke the rules of the Red Pavilion!"
— — — —
"Aunty? Why are you here? " Ji Yaoyue escorted Ying Feiyang all the way back to the Twelve Squares of the Red Pavilion. Just then, she saw First Madame Gongsun walking down the stairs.
First Madame Gongsun's cold demeanor changed. She smiled and lifted her chin, saying, "Yue 'er, I haven't seen you for a while. Your figure has become even more beautiful. Come, show me the dance steps I taught you."
Ji Yaoyue hurriedly stepped back to avoid First Madame Gongsun's teasing. She said, "Aunty, my sister is still waiting for me. I'll come and accompany you later." As she said this, she pulled Ying Feiyang upstairs as if she was afraid of something.
First Madame Gongsun looked at Ji Yaoyue with a burning gaze. She recalled the steps she had used to dodge her earlier. She murmured, "It looks like it. Her talent is indeed one of the best. It's a pity that she's the same as her sister. Her heart doesn't have this path."
Upstairs, it was the second time that he had stepped onto the top floor of the Red Pavilion. It should have been something to be envious of, but instead, Ying Feiyang felt his scalp go numb. He slowly moved his feet, as if he was walking on a brazier. He asked, "You called her Aunty. Could she be the First Madame Gongsun who wields her sword in all four directions?"
"So what if it is her?" Ji Yaoyue said coldly, as if to cover up her shyness from before.
"First Madame Gongsun is an extraordinary person. I've long wanted to see her sword dance to see if it's really as penetrating as the legends say. Since we're fated to meet, I'll have to get to know her." As Ying Feiyang said this, he was about to go downstairs.
"You're so timid. Do you think my house is a tiger's den?" A soft and languid voice with a hint of anger came from the room.
Ji Yaoyue pushed his back harshly, as if he was a criminal, and pushed him into the room. "Looks like my sister is in a bad mood now. You should go and cheer her up." Ji Yaoyue's cold tone had a rare hint of a smile, but it was a smile of schadenfreude. She then closed the door from outside, cutting off his path of retreat.
Ying Feiyang braced himself and entered. He saw two curtains rolled up, and Ji Yaoyu was half reclining on the couch. On the table on the couch, there was a pagoda-shaped plate of snow-white lotus cakes. Ji Yaoyu crossed her slender legs and lifted her feet, showing off her graceful figure. Her phoenix eyes looked at Ying Feiyang with a faint smile.
Her eyes were watery, and Ying Feiyang suddenly felt as if a bucket of water had been poured on him in the middle of winter. His body stiffened and trembled slightly. He stood a few steps in front of Ji Yaoyu and did not go any closer.
Ji Yaoyu raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "You're standing so far away. Are you afraid that I'll eat you? Come and sit here. " As she spoke, her slender fingers picked up a piece of lotus cake and brought it to her light pink lips. Although her actions were casual, under her natural charm, it was very attractive. If it was someone else, they would be eager to become that piece of lotus cake. As long as they could get a kiss, they would be willing to be swallowed.
Ying Feiyang did not dare to sit down. After taking a deep breath, he licked his lips and said with a smile, "Sister Yaoyu, I don't dare to sit with you. Please sit, I'll wait on you." In this crisis, Ying Feiyang threw all pride and unyielding power to the back of his mind. He only hoped to escape this crisis.
Unexpectedly, Ji Yaoyu was even better. She looked like she was about to burst into tears when she heard that. She wiped her eyes lightly and said, "That's true. I've overstepped my bounds. Great Swordsman Ying is an expert in both swordplay and Sima Chengzhen. His swordsmanship has already reached the acme of perfection. Now that he has entered the Directorate of Heaven, why would he listen to a little demon like me? Speaking of which, I'm a demon. When I enter Shen Du, I have to be supervised by Si Tiantai. I've been careless and neglected Si Tiantai's High Immortal. "After that, they bowed together and said," High Immortal Ying, please take a seat. "
Ying Feiyang could not continue acting and said anxiously, "Sister, don't play with me."
Ji Yaoyu said, "What do you mean by playing with you? Isn't High Immortal Ying quite arrogant? You didn't even say a word and disappeared for three days. I couldn't find you, so I sent some sisters to Si Tiantai to ask around. But they didn't even let me in. If it wasn't for Master Sima's funeral today, it wouldn't have been easy to find you even if I guessed that you would appear! "At the end of her sentence, her slightly red eyes made her look like she was complaining about a girl.
Ying Feiyang's face was so red that it was about to bleed. He said, "Sister, why does your tone sound so weird? You're looking for my Senior Apprentice-Brother and you're looking for me too."
Ji Yaoyu saw that he was almost done dealing with him. She temporarily retracted her supernatural power and returned to her seat. She said, "So you know. Then tell me, where did your Senior Apprentice-Brother go?"
Ying Feiyang said, "How would I know? He said he was going into seclusion and disappeared without a trace."
"Hmph, going into seclusion again. I haven't even explained the death of Miss Hong Ge. You saw how First Madame Gong Sun came to force me just now. Great, he escaped without a trace at this critical moment! Ying Feiyang, he slipped away under your watch, so you have to catch him and bring him back for me. "
"Sister, don't be fooled by me calling him Senior Apprentice-Brother. I'm really not close to him. How would I know where he went? How about this, if you find him, I'll stab him twice for you as revenge! "Ying Feiyang said fiercely.
Ji Yaoyu rolled her eyes at him and said, "You have a conscience. Sit down and eat some pastries." Ying Feiyang was still hesitant. Ji Yaoyu sneered, "Why? Are you afraid that it's poisonous?"
"Sister Yaoyu's reward, even if it's poisonous, I'll still eat it." Ying Feiyang took the opportunity to show off. He grabbed a piece of lotus cake and stuffed it into his mouth. It didn't taste bad.
Ji Yaoyu said, "You have a sweet mouth. Looks like I didn't dote on you in vain. I've added some tonics into your pastries."
Ying Feiyang stopped moving. He said with a trembling voice, "Sister, what did you add?"
"Of course it's a tonic for you men. Don't you feel your body burning up now? That damned Mu Zixuan doesn't take me seriously. Don't blame me for finding someone else. Don't you want to help me take revenge on him? Now let's take revenge on him together. What do you say? "Ji Yaoyu's eyes twinkled. A sweet fragrance came out of her mouth and swept towards Ying Feiyang's ears. Ying Feiyang had never experienced this before. He only felt a numbing itch at the back of his neck. The itch traveled along his spine. His body actually felt warm. His handsome face was flushed red, but he still stiffened his neck. He didn't dare to nod or shake his head.
"Sister, stop fooling around. You're letting him off easy." Just as Ying Feiyang was in a difficult situation, Ji Yaoyue pushed the door open. Her face was flushed red.
Ji Yaoyu seemed to have expected this. She smiled and said, "Little girl, who asked you to eavesdrop? Once I steal your man, you can't hide anymore, right?"
"You! What are you talking about? I don't care. Do whatever you want! "Ji Yaoyue stomped her feet and ran away.
Ji Yaoyu laughed and patted Ying Feiyang's head. She said, "Don't worry. It's just an ordinary poison. It will take effect after fifteen days. It might not kill you but it's enough to torture you."
"Sister, which part of what you said is the truth?" Ying Feiyang was about to cry.
"How are you feeling now? Disappointed, happy, or scared? " Ji Yaoyu covered her mouth and laughed. She said, "Don't worry. I'll give you a suggestion. Go look for that old liar Ce Tianji. Although nine out of ten of his divinations are wrong, there's always one accurate divination every day. In fifteen days, he should be right at least once. Time is pressing. You have to hurry."
