Chapter 182 The Plan Was Underway

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

When they just entered the room, Dong Ling immediately pulled a long face.

“Childe, I told you not to offend Junior Qi just a moment ago. Why wouldn’t you listen? Besides, that was 20,000 purple crystals. Even if you are rich, you shouldn’t spend your crystals in this way. Although I heard that Yelaixiang is very beautiful, I still think that spending money like this is too wasteful.”

“Alright, do you think I’m willing to spend 20,000 purple crystals on Yelaixiang? If it weren’t not for acting more real, I wouldn’t have done it. Why would I spend 20,000 purple crystals in meeting a woman I’ve never met before?” Feng Xi leaned against the window, secretly watching the two figures hover by the door and then enter the tavern across the street.

The two women were Di Tianhua and her maid Long Shi. They were originally secretly following Feng Xi, but when they saw them enter the Yexiang Ranch, they pulled a long face. Given their pride and self-esteem, they would not allow themselves to step into such a dirty place, so they intended to stay in the tavern until they got out of the ranch.

“What acting?” Dong Ling was confused.

Feng Xi quietly closed the window and confessed to him, “We’ve got two strange women stalking us secretly. I suspect they are coming with an ulterior motive. They may be coveting our belongings. They have been following us since we got off the flying Demon Beast, so I’m afraid that they will attack us in secret. I have to find a way to get rid of them.”

“What? We are stalked?” Dong Ling was shocked and didn’t realize that this was just an exaggerated statement by Feng Xi.

Feng Xi was worried that Dong Ling thought this was an illusion, so he deliberately said that.

“Of course. Do you think I’m really that kind of person? They’re currently monitoring us in the tavern across the street. One of them is a strong cultivator. If we flee from the back door, she will definitely find out immediately. Hence, only by causing trouble for them can we leave safely,” Feng Xi said with a serious face as if he were telling the truth.

Dong Ling finally believed what he said, “What should we do now?”

“Let’s do it later… You just do as I tell you,” Feng Xi briefed Dong Ling about his plan.

Dong Ling nodded with only a hazy notion. “Noted. Don’t worry. I will try my best to cooperate with you.”

Feng Xi nodded with satisfaction and then he sent a message to Ice Qilin telepathically, “Bing, find out which room Junior Qi stays. If he doesn’t come over later, make some trouble to lure him here. Remember to keep an eye on his every act and tell me once he comes.”

“I didn’t realize that you were so sinister until now. I’ve misjudged you.” Ice Qilin said with a shocked tone.

“You’re sinister. Your whole family are sinister.” Feng Xi rolled his eyes at him.

After a period of time of having two bowls of tea or so, Yelaixiang who was said to be very beautiful was sent to Feng Xi’s room by the procuress. Ordered by the procuress, Yelaixiang knew that the two men in front of her were the VIP clients, so she could casually take out 20,000 purple crystals. She was much more generous than Junior Qi. The power behind such a person must be extraordinary, so she didn’t dare to take them lightly.

However, strangely, the two men spent 20,000 purple crystals only in listening to her play the instrument and sing songs?

Even though it was inconceivable to her, she still followed their instructions and didn’t dare to be impatient at all. She played her best songs over and over again.

She did not know that although she was indeed very beautiful, Feng Xi had seen many women even more beautiful than her, such as Di Tianhua and her maid in the tavern across the street. They were bad-tempered, but they were good-looking and even more charismatic than Yelaixiang. Moreover, he had met a lot of beauties in the Netherworld, who were even prettier than her. How could a whore tempt him?

As for Dong Ling, his whole attention was focused on Feng Xi’s plan, so he couldn’t spare any attention to care about Yelaixiang’s beauty.

After they sat for about a quarter of an hour, something finally happened.

Under the supervision of Ice Qilin, the young master Junior Qi immediately rushed towards their room with his gang after hearing the description of the yellow-faced man with some trimmings.

Feng Xi estimated when they would arrive and then suddenly broke the silence in the room.

“Yelaixiang is such a versatile woman. You are not only beautiful but also good at playing the instrument,” Feng Xi praised with a smile.

After Yelaixiang finished the song, she immediately bowed to Feng Xi and whispered, “Thank you for your compliment.”

“No need to thank me. Your appearance is endowed by your parents. If you want to express gratitude, you should thank your parents. As for your skill of playing the instrument, that’s the result of your hard work. You deserve it. I can’t take the credit.” Feng Xi waved his hand and acted perfectly.

Yelaixiang rarely heard a client say such words to her, so she couldn’t help but cover her mouth and smile, “You really know how to talk.”

Feng Xi rolled his eyes. He learned it from his past life, which was said to be quite useful for pleasing women. He didn’t believe it before but now it seemed that it was indeed effective. At the moment, Ice Qilin reminded him that Junior Qi was a short distance away from arriving here. Instantly, Feng Xi started to get down to his plan.

“You are beautiful, but you are not the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met. Alas, it is my first time that I have ever met a woman as beautiful as her. Only a glance just makes me unable to forget her. (Actually, she is too annoying for him to forget) How can there be such a gorgeous beauty in the world?” Feng Xi appeared as if he was infatuated.

Ice Qilin immediately had goosebumps on his arms, and even Dong Ling’s face looked a bit strange.

“The beauty that you met before can’t be from the Wind and Blood City, right?” Yelaixiang did not show any indignation or jealousy. she could not see her temperament.

“How do you know?” Feng Xi feigned ignorance and asked.

“I’m not boasting. In Wind and Blood City, I’ve been hailed as the No. 1 beauty in the city. If there is really any woman more beautiful than me, she must be an outlsider.” Yelaixiang was a prostitute but she was rather clever. Otherwise, she couldn’t win the title of Beauty Queen three years in a row.

“You’re right. So she’s an outsider. What a pity. I am destined to miss such a beauty.” Feng Xi could not help but sigh.

Yelaixiang saw his depressed facial expression and couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Is that woman really as beautiful as you say?”

At this moment, Junior Qi, who was outside the door, put one hand on the door and was about to open the door when he suddenly heard this. He immediately stopped others from speaking. He reacted very quickly.

“Of course, if you don’t believe me, you can push open your window and take a look. I saw her walk into the tavern across the street and now she seems to be sitting by the window. Supposedly, she is still there now. My servant also saw her too. Is that so, Ling?” Feng Xi turned around to look at Dong Ling sitting next to him and blinked at him again when Yelaixiang didn’t noticed him.

Dong Ling pursed his lips and nodded. “You are right. That woman is really beautiful.”

It wouldn’t be a lie as he put it this way, so he said with assurance.

Yelaixiang pushed open the window with suspicion, but she knew that peeking wasn’t good, so she was smart enough to open the window slightly. At the first glance, she was immediately attracted by the two women sitting by the window, especially one of them. She had never seen such a beautiful woman before. Compared to that woman, she was merely a mediocre woman. A rice couldn’t be compared with the moon. Indisputably, even she thought that the woman in the tavern was unbelievably beautiful.

She was a bit doubtful before seeing that woman with her own eyes, but after she did, she was convinced with only one glance.

“You have a good eye. That woman is as pretty as a fairy lady. Even I’m stunned.”

Feng Xi smiled. In Yelaixiang’s opinion, he seemed to be happy because someone agreed with his point of view, but only Ice Qilin knew that he was happy for the success of his plan. Junior Qi, who was outside the door, couldn’t wait to run. At this moment, he should be excited to see the well-known beauty.

“Alright, we still have things to do, so it’s time to leave,” Feng Xi stood up. Since the plan worked, he didn’t want to stay any longer in case of any trouble.

Dong Ling got up nervously and politely cupped his hands at Yelaixiang.

Yelaixiang was surprised. The two of them really came here just to listen to her sing a few songs. In fact, it had only been half an hour. However, seeing that the two men really didn’t have the slightest intention of staying, she did not ask them to stay either. “Let me see you two off.”

“No need,” Feng Xi stopped her. They were about to get away through the back door. If they really let her see them off, they would show themselves in front of Di Tianhua again. He walked to the door and suddenly turned around. “As an honorarium for you, please take this.”

Yelaixiang had a glint of surprise in her face. When she composed herself, the shiny purple crystals on the ground almost got her to believe that she was hallucinating.

Feng Xi didn’t know that his action made Yelaixiang unable to speak for a long time. For the first time, she was so happy that she cried. It wasn’t because she had received so many purple crystals but because she got such so many purple crystals from this young man for nothing and he just met her for once. She figured that she would never forget the young man for her whole life.

At the back door of the Yexiang Ranch.

“Brat, where did you learn the flirting move?” Ice Qilin roared at Feng Xi. After getting rid of Di Tianhua and her maid, he didn’t have to hide himself so he just showed himself.

“What flirting move?” Feng Xi was stunned by his roar and didn’t know what Ice Qilin actually meant.

“What do you mean by what you said to Yelaixiang in the end?” Ice Qilin stared at him.

“Oh, that. I was thinking that if she hadn’t cooperated well, I’d have had to spend a lot of effort in getting her to say what I wanted her to say. It would be a lot of work on me. Hence, in order to thank her, I gave her some purple crystals. Anyway, I have a lot of them in my rings. I’m rich. Do you think the purple crystals are not good enough for her? But other things are so valuable for me that I won’t give them to her.”

Feng Xi was too busy talking to notice that the corner of Ice Qilin’s mouth was twitching non-stop.

Fine, he was wrong. He shouldn’t have suspected that this little brat had an ulterior motive. What he cared about were only his treasure and King of the Netherworld. What he was reconciled to lose were only the purple crystals that seemed valuable and yet actually most invaluable in his eyes.

What weird thinking!
