The Hundred Flowers Market, a bustling hub independently developed by the Hundred Flowers Palace, was initially intended as a place for disciples to trade cultivation resources with outside cultivators. However, its scale and purpose have evolved significantly over time, far surpassing its original design.
Indeed, it is now more accurately described as Hundred Flowers City.
This city not only encompasses the business of rogue cultivators spanning ten thousand li, but it has also become the premier location for many major powers to conduct their most crucial negotiations and transactions.
Beyond its commercial allure, the Hundred Flowers Market draws female cultivators from across vast distances. They journey here to seek encounters with beautiful maidens, hoping to spark a romantic connection.
Undoubtedly, the entire Hundred Flowers Market thrives with exceptional popularity, largely due to the Hundred Flowers Palace being a veritable gathering place for the most stunning female cultivators on the Cultivation Realm’s Beauty Rankings. It is not uncommon to spot one of the top hundred peerless immortal beauties strolling through the city every few days.
Imagine a modern city where, every month, international top-tier celebrities could be seen shopping. Wouldn’t you yearn for a serendipitous encounter with them? It would be absolutely incredible.
Among the Hundred Flowers Market’s most renowned establishments are the Hundred Flowers Palace itself and the Hundred Flowers Brothel, which is the city’s main attraction.
This establishment offers a comprehensive suite of services, from dining to bathing. Furthermore, many immortal maidens from the Hundred Flowers Palace, finding themselves unable to continue their cultivation, develop alternative aspirations, leading them to entertain guests. Consequently, the Hundred Flowers Brothel hosts numerous ‘fallen’ immortal maidens from the Hundred Flowers Palace as permanent residents.
For the immortal maidens of the Hundred Flowers Palace, entertaining guests is a perfectly normal occurrence—as simple as eating and drinking.
Donning their clothes meant daily hunger, yet shedding them brought spirit stones. Thus, rather than toiling away in cultivation, often facing hardships, they chose to offer their bodies. This became a means to advance on their path to immortality. Should they successfully ascend to the peak, they would look back and see it all as merely a part of the journey!
The cultivation techniques practiced by the immortal maidens of the Hundred Flowers Palace primarily focus on preserving youth, enhancing beauty, and whitening skin. It is no exaggeration to say that a pretty girl, upon cultivating these techniques, would swiftly transform into a great beauty.
They move with the grace of a startled swan, and the elegance of a soaring dragon.
For this reason, the Hundred Flowers Palace is sometimes referred to by cultivators as the Hundred Flowers Immortal Palace.
There is even a saying in the cultivation world: ‘To cultivate without knowing the Hundred Flowers Brothel is to experience the world’s splendor in vain.’
It is precisely because of this reputation that the Hundred Flowers Brothel remains the most bustling place within the entire Hundred Flowers Market.
It could truly be called a paradise on earth.

Ye Xiaozi spent the entire day feeling somewhat distracted. This stemmed from a sudden invitation she received at noon.
The invitation’s content was simple enough: a clan sister from the Leaf surname wished to invite outstanding young Leaf-surname sisters to a meal. In the mortal world, such social interactions might be commonplace.
However, in the cultivation world, let alone those with the same surname, even siblings born of the same parents might not willingly open their wallets to treat others to a meal.
After all, items in the cultivation world are far more expensive than those in the mortal realm, and ludicrously so. Having only recently joined the sect, Ye Xiaozi had to meticulously budget every single spirit stone, daring not to waste any, let alone host a dinner.
After a long period of contemplation, Ye Xiaozi finally turned to her roommate for advice: “Xiaomei, do you think I should go?”
Wang Xiaomei casually glanced at the invitation, then immediately sneered at Ye Xiaozi: “You silly girl, you’re still asking if you should go? The information subtly conveyed in this invitation makes it clear you absolutely must. Frankly, you have no right to refuse.”
“Ah! Is… is that so? If… if I get sold off, what… what should I do?” Ye Xiaozi couldn’t help but feel wronged, terrified at the prospect of being sold.
“Huh? Sold off?” Wang Xiaomei looked at Ye Xiaozi, speechless, then sighed. “Relax! Your life isn’t in danger. Besides, you’re not worth anything right now, okay? Who would take on the responsibility of selling off a worthless girl like you?”
“Really?” Ye Xiaozi was pleased, but for some reason, her mood felt heavy.
“Of course. Don’t worry! Judging by the invitation, it shouldn’t be just you who’s been invited. If my guess isn’t wrong, it’s likely one of your elders learned of your situation and believes you have potential, or perhaps they’ve formed a connection with someone powerful, which is why they’ve extended the invitation.”
“So that’s how it is, but I…” Ye Xiaozi was about to protest, denying she had any special connections, when she suddenly recalled an incident two months prior. Back then, soon after joining the sect, she had been bullied by several malicious girls. Fortunately, Senior Sister Bai Rusui happened to pass by, not only teaching those bullies a lesson but also gifting her precious pills.
Moreover, just yesterday, as she was on the verge of losing the most precious item her dream goddess had bestowed upon her, the Saintess descended beside her like an immortal.
She wondered what kind of destiny she possessed to merit the assistance of both Senior Sister Bai and the Saintess.
Just last night, Ye Xiaozi had even dreamt a spring dream of Bai Rusui and the Saintess intimately together, leaving her blushing upon waking.
“Seeing your expression, it seems my guess was correct. So, what are you still worried about?” Wang Xiaomei smiled faintly, pinpointing Ye Xiaozi’s hidden thoughts.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll go now—”
“Go where? Didn’t you read the invitation? It says they’re coming to pick you up!”
“Oh, it really does!”
“And that, you see, is one of the reasons you can’t refuse.”
“I see!” Ye Xiaozi finally understood.
Immediately, she began to look forward to the evening.
****
That evening, as most disciples finished their tasks, many observed a flying boat heading towards the area where the menial disciples resided. A short while later, it departed from that same area.
This sight naturally sparked bold conjectures among the young girls.
“Could it be that someone has risen to prominence overnight, latching onto a powerful backer?”
“Hehe, climbing the branches of the Hundred Flowers Palace isn’t so easy. I hear quite a few elders fancy us young ones, but due to sect rules, they dare not act directly. So, they resort to trying to subtly entice us disciples.”
“Pah, what an old geezer! Probably some old fossil who’s almost in the grave, getting frisky again and preying on us ordinary disciples.”
“Exactly! Exactly!”
****
That night, Ye Xiaozi, accompanied by a few disciples she recognized, appeared within the Hundred Flowers Brothel.
The two leading them were Wang Qiu’er, Luo Bingli’s chief lackey, and Ye Qianqiu, a tool-girl whom Wang Qiu’er had brought along as an excuse.
