Stealing The Yuri Protagonist Harem (Xianxia) - Chapter 34: In Trouble

Inside the Red Blossom Pavilion, in the room of Yao Ji.

For the next five consecutive songs that Yao Ji played, Luo Wusheng was completely engrossed in the music.

He felt as though he had fallen in love with the sensation of listening to her music.

In this world that is scarce of any entertainment, listening to this kind of heavenly music was truly a wonderful thing.

Sitting across from him, Yao Ji had already broken out in a light sweat after playing the five songs in succession without any stop.

“Ah— Young master, please allow me a short break— I will play another song for you shortly…”

Her efforts on playing all 5 of the songs with all of her abilities were taking a toll on her.

However, unlike her tired appearance, her eyes were shining brightly, and her gaze towards Luo Wusheng had changed from the first time they met.

“It’s all right, I have plenty of time to appreciate Miss Yao Ji’s exquisite music.”

He also has plenty of money, too.

But once the music stopped, his thoughts became much more active.

‘My favorability level toward Yao Ji should be almost enough— I should be able to start the next step of the plan.’

Despite wasting some time listening to Miss Yao Ji’s music, he still remembered his initial goal.

Although from her current behavior, it didn’t seem like the other party possessed any cultivation ability, there is also a chance that she was just hiding her power away.

And even if it turns out that he was wrong, and that Miss Yao Ji is really just a normal courtesan, he wouldn’t suffer any losses.

With this thought in mind, Luo Wusheng turned over his palm.

A piece of Star-Moon Jade flew out of his storage bag and landed in his hand.

This piece of Star-Moon Jade was slightly different from the two he gave to Bai Xiaoyao and Lu Yuliu. Only half of the starry spirit remained inside, forming a half-star half-moon shape.

“This is… ” Yao Ji’s beautiful eyes trembled.

Looking at the beautiful jade, she felt like her heart was melting.

“This is a Star-Moon Jade, a kind of jade that I specially crafted by myself. There is only one of its kind in this world.”

Luo Wusheng smiled gently, “I would like to present this to Miss Yao Ji.”

“Such a valuable item… I cannot accept it…”

Although Yao Ji said this, she couldn’t take her eyes off the jade.

Luo Wusheng shook his head and the Star-Moon Jade in his hand flew into the seven-stringed ancient qin held by Yao Ji.

“Although the Star-Moon Jade is beautiful, it can only complement the beauty of Yao Ji’s Guqin musical sound– If Yao Ji can accept it and set it in her Guqin, then my gift of the Star-Moon jade will have meaning.”

He smiled and said all of those random words without any sense of falsehood in his expression nor tone.

Holding the warm and smooth Star-Moon jade in her hand, Yao Ji’s eyes sparkled even more as she looked at Luo Wusheng.

“Since the young master says so, then this humble courtesan will accept it…”

She lightly pressed the Star-Moon Jade onto one corner of the ancient Guqin.

“Could you please help me set it into the Guqin, young master?”

“Of course.”

Luo Wusheng smiled in response to Yao Ji’s request.

With the circulation of spiritual energy, Luo Wusheng, who was already familiar with the process, easily set the Star-Moon Jade into the ancient qin.

“Now I am starting to believe that you must be very popular with many women outside…” Yao Ji teased.

Luo Wusheng shook his head and laughed, “Unfortunately, no woman has ever said they liked me.”

“I don’t believe it,” Yao Ji said, her lips slightly curling up. “By the way, could you please open the window? It’s been too long inside this room and some fresh air would be nice… I don’t have the strength to get up now.”

“Yao Ji is good at ordering her guests around,” Luo Wusheng said, not minding her request at all.

Coincidentally, he also wanted to get some fresh air by the window. So he stood up and walked towards it, opening the window.

The next moment, his smiling face froze.

…

“He’s not here?”

Up in the Red Blossom Pavilion, under the scales pattern mask, the eyes of Miss Kirin showed a hint of confusion.

Her Nascent Soul-level spiritual awareness enveloped the entire Red Blossom Pavilion, but she couldn’t detect any trace of that Demon Sect Holy Saint.

Did the information that the spy’s division got was wrong?

‘No— Hold on, those officers from the Demon Artifact Pavilion are indeed inside the Red Blossom Pavilion.’

Miss Kirin’s thoughts deepened.

In other words, that Holy Saint Luo Wusheng did bring those four officers to the Red Blossom Pavilion, but he himself did not stay in the pavilion. Instead, he went to another place?

After receiving the information from the Six Gate Bureau spies, she only went to handle some minor matters before coming over. With such a short time, it couldn’t be that the Demon Sect Holy Saint had already finished his business, right?

So, the purpose of that Holy Saint was not the Red Blossom Pavilion after all?

Did he bring the people from the Demon Artifact Pavilion here just to divert the attention from other forces?

With the deductive ability of a seasoned detective, Miss Kirin quickly came up with her own speculation.

‘From the looks of it, Luo Wusheng should have another hidden agenda— Is it another secret mission that is ordered by the Sect master of the Demon Sect? Or is he trying to prepare something big for the Demon Artifact Pavilion?’

Miss Kirin’s masked gaze flickered with thought.

But as expected, the saint was not a lascivious man that loves to linger around in the brothel.

“Although, if he really were a man like that, it would have been easier to recruit him.”

Miss Kirin’s current mood was somewhat complicated.

She didn’t want her reasoning to be wrong and be proven otherwise, but at the same time, she wished that Luo Wusheng could be easier to understand.

After all, a deeply thoughtful Demon Sect Holy Saint was not an easy man to control…

She shook her head gently and stopped thinking about it further.

Then she locked onto several of her own Six Gate Bureau Red Robe Catchers who were busy indulging themself in pleasure inside the brothel.

Hmm, some of them were still drinking in the hall before going to the rooms.

Thinking of this, she transmitted her message to each of them.

Inside the Red Blossom Pavilion, the faces of several men who were drinking and making out with the brothel girls suddenly stiffened.

Then these men silently touched the black and white mask that they had thrown into the ground and started to dress up again.

Many of them are thinking of the same thing.

‘Why did Captain Kirin have to come to the very brothel they are having fun in, it’s not like she’s a voyeur right?’

…………

Meanwhile, a stunning young girl dressed in white fairy clothes arrived at the entrance of the Red Blossom Pavilion.

Bai Xiaoyao certainly didn’t want to walk into the Red Blossom Pavilion openly.

Not because she was concerned about her reputation, but because she was afraid of alerting the person behind the scenes who had sent the message to her and prompting her to take new actions.

Hmm… if Senior Brother is really inside, she also didn’t want to let him discover her too early.

Thinking of this, she moved her body and merged into the light and shadow of the brothel.

As the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect, she naturally had a great concealment technique.

‘With my cultivation level, if Senior Brother deliberately conceals his aura, I definitely won’t be able to detect him…’

The demoness who had already merged into the light and shadow thought for a moment and decided to first find the several officers.

This was easy enough, and she soon found the two officers who were still in the hall.

It’s Wang Wude and Li Xing.

As for where the other two had gone, it was obvious.

“… You don’t know how glorious I was in the Trial Martial Arts arena this afternoon. If it weren’t for my opponent’s trickery, I wouldn’t have been injured at all. But even so, I still won one battle after another today, that time, i’m invincible on the martial arts platform…”

Li the scumbag was weaving a story with great enthusiasm, drawing responses from the women around him.

And Wang Wude sitting at the table drinking, not looking for girls, was the exact opposite of Li Xing.

“Young lady, let me tell you, that second battle today was so dangerous. At the time—”

Li Xing suddenly stiffened and stopped talking as he looked towards Wang Wude.

Wang Wude also stopped drinking and looked a bit solemn.

They both received a transmission from their own Holy Maiden.

The content of the transmission was simple, with only nine short words.

“Come to the outside of the Red Blossom Pavilion.”

But Li Xing felt a cold sweat on his back.

He looked around for where the Holy Maiden might be hiding.

After searching in vain, he exchanged a glance with Wang Wude.

‘If only I had picked a girl to take to the room earlier— Why can’t I control this big mouth of mine?’

Saying goodbye to the girls around him, Li Xing and Wang Wude walked out of the Red Blossom Pavilion together.

Sure enough, the stunning Holy Maiden was already waiting for them outside the Pavilion.

“Where is my Senior Brother?”

The Holy Maiden asked such a question expressionlessly.

Li Xing’s face was full of bitterness.

How could a small fry like himself get caught up in the troubles between the Holy Saint and the Holy Maiden?

What a disaster…
