"You haven't had enough to eat, yet you're still 50/50 with a woman despite your strength!"
"It's okay to show love and respect on stage. Take it home and show love and respect to beauty!"
"Are you stupid? You don't dare to cut her to death with your sword drawn, so you put the sword in its sheath and slap her!"
Lu Xiaofeng, Murong Jiu and others just remained neutral, which did not mean they did not care about the changes in the situation. After the battle between Cihang Jingzhai and the Destiny Sect, the Eight Immortals crossed the sea and each showed their magical powers to inquire about information. Only Feiton and the others were shopping leisurely. .
They were very lucky. They encountered the classic "competition to recruit a bride"... Don't worry, Feiton was just shouting in the audience and did not compete on stage. The winner was a strong man over thirty years old. Look. His words and deeds don't sound like a treacherous person, he is just a hot-blooded and reckless man, who is a good match for the eldest sister who has been wandering in the martial arts for many years and is still pretty and pretty.
"...I can finally leave." Kaguya secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she also likes to join in the fun. The duel is not aimed at killing, and she feels relaxed. The problem is that there is no suitable place to watch the battle. Although she has the title of "the best master in the world", the crowd automatically forms a isolation zone, so don't worry. Someone came over to show off their dirty tricks, but the people's fiery gazes couldn't be blocked, which made her very uncomfortable.
Yonglin didn't care about being the center of attention, and joked: "Feiton, your enthusiasm seems a bit too high~"
"Have you been discovered?" Feiton showed a foxy smile, "Well, I was just thinking about the nature of [competition to recruit a bride]. The ruling class in the martial arts country is martial arts people, so martial arts is a reflection of social adaptability. Women want to get married when they get married. Finding a more socially adaptable husband sounds reasonable, right?”
Kaguya tried: "You want to say... that marriage obtained in this form has no emotional basis?"
"No, marriages without emotional foundations are not uncommon. There is no simpler and stronger way to strengthen ties than marriage. Even in the eyes of some people, princesses are born to marry the princes of other countries or the sons of important ministers of their own country. Feiton shook his head and said, "What I want to say is that if we switch to the capital world, and the rich become the country's ruling class, and wealth becomes a reflection of social adaptability, then the competition to recruit a bride will become -"
"——Auction, right?" Yong Lin said softly.
Kaguya imagined the scene of [a woman standing on the stage promoting herself, and a group of men bidding in the audience], and the good mood gained from watching the excitement disappeared: "...disgusting."
"Why is it 'disgusting'? It's super interesting~" Feiton thought so sincerely, "Just change the background setting slightly, and the evaluation will be completely different. The thing itself has not changed. The only fault is our own.”
"Well, this is an interesting point of view..." Yong Lin thought seriously.
At least before Feiton proposed to change the background setting, she only thought that the martial arts competition was a superficial way to court a mate, and she didn't think about the deeper aspects.
Kaguya said quickly: "Eirin, please don't be fooled by him! This can't explain his enthusiasm just now, he just has a bad taste!"
"Whatever you say~" Feiton took out a notebook from his pocket, opened it and crossed out a line of text, "Well, I've seen it through martial arts competitions to recruit relatives, let's see if we can meet the plot of selling one's body to bury one's father."
Hearing this, Kaguya couldn't help but ask: "What if I meet him?"
"That has to be analyzed based on the actual situation." Feiton shrugged, "If she says 'Young Master', she is most likely coming for me. Some people may think that sending a woman who has never practiced martial arts can make me Let your guard down; if she looks at my hair with a weird expression and is doubtful about my help, she might really be an ordinary person."
Kaguya subconsciously said: "Just 'possible'?"
"There is a person with excellent acting skills right in front of you." Feiton puffed up his chest, saying that this was his professional skill when working in a criminal organization.
Yong Lin temporarily broke away from the previous question and asked curiously: "What is your response?"
"If she is an ordinary person, just lend her a few taels of silver and let her find a job to pay back the money." No matter how beautiful she is, she will never consider taking a maid. "If she feels that the money is not enough, she cannot provide her late father with a grand party." After the funeral, I will scold her. The daughter who sold herself into slavery for the funeral is so damn filial. My father, Yutomo Izumoshita, was so angry that he cried."
Kaguya nodded. She is a princess who is very pompous, but she also knows what is most important: "What if it is someone with ulterior motives?"
Feiton snickered and said: "Lend her a shovel, tell her I live in the Ghost King's Mansion, and ask her to return the shovel to me after she's finished - she will definitely see a very interesting face~"
(…………) The face of Hanhan, who was eavesdropping from a distance, had become very interesting.

Although the Destiny Sect is a professional in the erotic industry and can achieve both making money and cultivating, there are many martial arts factions, and brothels are the most profitable business. Not all brothels in the capital are its industry. The brothel where Lu Xiaofeng took Feiton and the others went. It is the property of Wuzheng Villa.
Yuan Suiyun, the young owner of Wuzheng Villa, whose conspiracy was exposed due to a chance encounter with Chu Liuxiang about half a year ago, and who eventually died in the sea, had been blind since childhood and could only rely on his ears. He has always treated Qinyi like a rich lady. Along the way, there is Lian Xiuxiu, a talented girl who is one of the most talented in the world... Of course, there has always been a market in the martial arts world for famous prostitutes who do not sell their bodies. This has not hindered the brothel's revenue at all. It should be understood that it is targeted at high-end customer groups.
"...So, this brothel does not provide accommodation services, but only listens to music?" Feiton asked Lu Xiaofeng after patiently listening to Lian Xiuxiu's performance.
Lu Xiaofeng, who was still savoring the aftertaste of the music, reacted and said, half surprised and half hesitant: "Well, there are girls who are not just entertainers. They are usually responsible for accompanying wine and dancing. Miss Xiuxiu usually only receives special guests in the boudoir. …Well, just playing music.”
The world's best master came to visit, and Lu Xiaofeng didn't have to pay a penny. The store automatically suspended business for cleaning, and ordered the vulgar fans to stay in the room and not come out, leaving Lian Xiuxiu to receive the guests in the lobby in person.
Feiton said to the store owner without interest: "There is no need to accompany you with wine, let's serve food."
"...!" Lian Xiuxiu trembled when she heard this.
Although it sounds strange, she feels good about herself even though she is for sale, but this is the mentality of this famous prostitute. She longs to be favored by the best men in the world without ever meeting the client, such as Pang Ban, Lang Fanyun, Ximen Chuixue, Ye Gucheng and others.
By chance, she hooked up with Lang Fanyun a month ago, but right in front of her was the world's best master who instantly killed Pang Ban. Even if she didn't intend to change her mind, she still wanted to get his approval, but she didn't expect that she would fall over for the first time in so many years since her debut.
Lu Xiaofeng glanced at Lian Xiuxiu and smiled bitterly: "It seems that Miss Xiuxiu's performance is not to your liking?"
"He just lacks the ability to appreciate, don't worry about it." Kaguya comforted him.
Originally, she was extremely disgusted with the idea of 'visiting a brothel', but Feiton nodded. She would have felt uncomfortable if she didn't follow him, but after listening to the shocking performance just now, she felt that the trip was worth it! Even looking at Lian Xiuxiu feels more pleasing to the eye.
Feiton shrugged and said: "The art field is not my strong point. Besides, I like hard rock, R&B, pop rock, house music and other music styles. The tinkling sound of the piano is not to my taste."
This is not against Lian Xiuxiu, it's just a cultural difference.
In fact, Feiton also couldn't feel the point of the dance performed by the girls who came out to dance for fun later. The "sultry dance" he recognized was the kind of bunny girl spinning around a pole.
The topic of music appreciation ended here. Feiton asked Lu Xiaofeng: "So? What do you want to do by bringing me here to listen to music?"
Lu Xiaofeng smiled dryly and said: "I want to introduce you to a professional musician. There are not many recreational activities in the Ghost King's Mansion, just listen to music and so on."
"I agree." Kaguya agreed.
"... As long as Her Royal Highness likes it." Feiton said angrily, "Your goal was successful, can you tell me your true motive?"
Lu Xiaofeng laughed unceremoniously: "Miss Xiuxiu is secretly in love with Lang Fanyun. The Tianming Sect seems to have noticed this. According to their behavior, it is very likely that Miss Xiuxiu will be used to threaten Lang Fanyun. The hostage has even been poisoned...You are the only person in the world who can protect her."
"Thank you, Hero Lu, for helping me. I can't repay you for your kindness and virtue." Lian Xiuxiu quickly thanked her. Of course, she did not forget the three Feitons who actually provided protection. Although they were not in a good mood, there was no lack of etiquette.
Feiton had heard of the name of the Raging Dragon Gang's 'Rain-Covering Sword' and knew that he was now fighting against the Destiny Sect, but he didn't care about a stranger: "No...can you still be considered neutral? Now the Destiny Sect Experts rush in and beat you, and I have to consider whether I should save you."
"Forget it, Miss Xiuxiu was originally an ordinary person." Lu Xiaofeng began to argue, not so much to answer Feiton's question, but to express her position to the nearby masters of the Destiny Sect, "I am just an insignificant idler in the martial arts world, who is going to I have no control over the big issue of being an emperor. But as a man who often goes to brothels, I always have an unusual longing for oirans, especially those who are entertainers but not prostitutes... It is rare to find a choice with good appearance and temperament. The oiran, I still hope she will have a good outcome, some people have already killed Ji Xixi, it’s time to show off, right?"
