A lavish carriage came to a stop. On both sides of the carriage followed by several elaborately dressed attendants carrying waist-swords. At just a glance, the person in the carriage must either be rich or noble.
The one who shouted was the coachman. Just as his shout fell, there came a gentle and calm male voice from within the carriage: “You must not be so audacious and rude!”
“Yes. We’re here. Sixth lord please step out of the carriage.” The coachman hopped off the carriage, very respectfully and diligently lifted the curtain of the carriage.
The curtain was lifted. The person to jump off the carriage was Qi wang Zhu You Chen.
He wore a blue wide robe embroidered with flowers, a belted torso, holding a folding fan in his hand, his long hair being pinned up in a coronet. Obviously, he didn’t want to bring too attention to himself. He only dressed up as any ordinary good-for-nothing young master. Presumably because of entering the red-district, he didn’t want others to know he is Qi wang.
Linghu Shui Yue roughly understands that this Yu Qiong Lou has many royals and nobles coming and going, because this Yu Qiong Lou besides being famous for its skilled ladies, it also auctions expensive and rare things as well as engages in other businesses on the side. There is often martial art secret scriptures or some kind of elixir of life, miracle pills, or immortal herbal grass to be auctioned off. It wasn’t a simple brothel.
Coming here for the first time, Linghu Shui Yue’s mind was filled with thoughts of the traditions and customs of ancient dynasties in Chinese history.
But in reality, after searching her impoverished mind and having a basic understanding of this time and space, she realized the time-space she crossed into was different than any of the Chinese dynasties.
This was alternate history ancient time-space. Da Yan State wasn’t the Yan Country in Chinese History. Instead, it was one out of more than ten countries of this Central Continent.
Da Yan State was located in this ancient time-space’s very center. The surrounding countries such as Bei Dian, Xi Liang, Dong Jin, Wei, Yue and so on were all eyeing Da Yan covetously.
Therefore, war has been going on for many years continuously. The fire of war was unceasing. Especially advocating for military power, everyone had the highest regard for martial ability. Though literary learning was also fashionable, it wasn’t get people carried away as military power, obsessed and drunk.
Because of this, Linghu Huo Ri, despite having the beauty of an immortal fairy, was considered by others as a waste. Because the real Linghu Huo Ri was said to be unable to practice martial arts after the misfortune that happened years ago, powerless as if he would fall over with a gust of wind.
Fortunately, Linghu General had illustrious war merits. His reputation has spread far and wide. He’s been conferred the title of Hu Guo Grand General by the deceased Emperor, in charge of half of Da Yan’s commander’s tally. It can be said his great achievements made the master feel uneasy, known by the whole country.

In this world, there are not many people who have seen Linghu Huo Ri. Coincidentally, sixth lord was one of those who have seen Linghu Huo Ri. So when he stepped off the carriage, though Linghu Shui Yue immediately turned around, his eyes were quick to catch a glimpse of her.
“Linghu young master, please stay!” The moment Zhu You Chen saw Linghu Huo Ri, he thought he was mistaken! He remembered three years ago, he’s seen Linghu Huo Ri once. He seemed like a willow being blown by a gentle breeze, a sickly appearance that made people find it difficult to offer compliments but Linghu young master at this moment seemed to be as healthy as normal.
Linghu Shui Yue wanted to pretend she didn’t hear but it was not possible. She could only look back, turning her body around, walking over to Zhu You Chen, then saluting to him: “Linghu Huo Ri greets sixth lord!”
Zhu You Chen’s eyes, though mono-lids, were beautifully grown, and especially sharp. Narrowing his eyes at Linghu Huo Ri: “At such a place, you can forgo etiquette! Linghu young master looks good, is it…..your body has recovered?”
“cough! cough!” Linghu Shui Yue just remembered although she and Linghu Huo Ri looked the exact same, Linghu Huo Ri’s frail appearance can’t be placed in the same category as her.
