Lin Yaoyao winked at Gu Mingchun, whispered a few words in Lin Feiyuan’s ear, and handed him her jade pendant.
Lin Feiyuan took the pendant, gave a sly grin, and left.
“Miss Lin, what are you planning?”
Gu Mingchun was an honest man, and he looked worried. Lin Yaoyao didn’t dare tell him what was about to happen.
“Nothing, Senior Brother Gu. Just focus on your match. Good luck!”
She made a peace sign.
Gu Mingchun had no idea what it meant, but he went up on stage with a nervous heart.
Lu Yan’er whispered to Lin Yaoyao, “Yaoyao, do we really have to do this?”
Lin Yaoyao looked ahead and nodded firmly. ‘Don’t worry. Everything is within the rules.’
Shen Fengjiang was tall and burly, packed with muscle. Gu Mingchun’s presence instantly shrank by half in front of him.
Once the match started, Shen Fengjiang struck first with a Fire Cloud Palm. Gu Mingchun dodged just in time.
One palm missed, then another came, each more powerful than the last.
“No wonder he has an extreme-grade fire spiritual root. The pressure is intense.”
Gu Mingchun felt lucky that he had listened to Lin Yaoyao and brought his family’s Xuanming Bell. With that strong defense, the force of Shen Fengjiang’s palm never hurt him.
But defending was not enough; he had to fight back.
Gu Mingchun used Cloud Splitter Slash, and the single sword strike carried considerable power.
Shen Fengjiang leaped into the air and avoided it.
Both were at the fifth level of Qi Refining. They went back and forth, locked in a stalemate.
Lin Yaoyao and Lu Yan’er watched nervously from below, hoping Lin Feiyuan would show up soon.
“Who knows if that guy is reliable. I should have sent Chunyu instead.”
A moment later, that familiar figure appeared.
“Make way, make way!”
Lin Feiyuan was back, and behind him were five or six heavily made-up women.
Their outfits were unusual: low-cut, bare-backed, swaying hips, showing off a long stretch of pale thighs. Hard to look away.
Wow, the girls from Tianxiang Tower really had great figures. Especially the courtesan Tao Hong. She was simply a stunner.
Lin Yaoyao looked down at herself, then at those girls. How could the gap between people be so large?
She never expected that once these women put on tight dresses, short skirts, and high heels, they’d have a charm all their own. The whole crowd got an eyeful.
Their arrival drew every eye in the place.
“Who are they? Those clothes are so pretty!”
Lin Yaoyao had spent points to exchange for those outfits from the mall. The point wasn’t to give the crowd a free show.
“Lin Feiyuan, what are the Tianxiang Tower girls doing here? Even Tao Hong came?”
The usual group of wealthy idlers who hung around Lin Feiyuan grabbed him, wanting to know what was going on. Tao Hong rarely showed herself.
How would Lin Feiyuan know why Lin Yaoyao had called them over? He was just running errands for his little sister.
He had taken Lin Yaoyao’s jade pendant and shown it to the Tianxiang Tower madam, and the girls followed him without a word.
“No idea! No idea! What’s it to you?”
Lin Feiyuan was getting impatient, and Lin Yaoyao came over to smooth things out.
“They’re my guests. They’re a cheerleading squad for Senior Brother Gu!”
Cheerleading squad?
Never heard of it.
Before the group could react, Lin Yaoyao led the Tianxiang Tower girls to the front of the stage.
The two on stage had been stuck in a deadlock for a while, and Gu Mingchun was already showing signs of weakness.
Lin Yaoyao let out a long breath. The girls had arrived just in time. Perfect for the job.
She pointed at Shen Fengjiang on stage and instructed Tao Hong, “Miss Tao Hong, it’s up to you now.”
Tao Hong’s eyes were silk-soft as she said in a coquettish voice, “Don’t worry, Miss Lin. We’re professionals.”
Even her voice was that enticing. No wonder she was the top courtesan.
Lin Yaoyao felt a tingle. She was a woman too, and even she felt her heart itch, let alone the men.
Led by Tao Hong, the Tianxiang Tower girls began to dance by the edge of the arena. Their movements were lively and alluring, drawing wave after wave of applause.
This was a martial competition, not a dance contest!
Elder Hong wanted to stop them, but he couldn’t find a proper excuse. The dancing girls weren’t on the stage interfering with the match.
Better to leave well enough alone. Let them dance. They just couldn’t go up on stage.
Tao Hong’s seductive eyes never left Shen Fengjiang. Sometimes they were full of affection, sometimes she looked like she wanted to speak but held back.
The moment their eyes met, Shen Fengjiang’s face turned red, like a boy with his first crush.
Lin Yaoyao marveled. Truly professionals.
Was there a man in the world who could resist a woman this alluring?
A cold image of Murong Tian flashed through Lin Yaoyao’s mind. Maybe one day she’d have Tao Hong go test him out.
The moment Tao Hong appeared, Shen Fengjiang started to lose his focus. His attacks slowed by a noticeable amount.
At that point, all he could see was Tao Hong. He couldn’t give Gu Mingchun his full attention.
Gu Mingchun seized the chance. One Cloud Splitter Slash came down, and Shen Fengjiang, too slow to dodge, was wounded and fell. Gu Mingchun won.
Lin Yaoyao gloated. “Sigh. A hero always falls for a pretty face.”
Gu Mingchun won that round, and the Tianxiang Tower girls had completed their mission.
“Miss Tao Hong lives up to her name!”
“The girls of Tianxiang Tower are all beauties from heaven!”
Lin Yaoyao showered them with compliments, and the girls were all smiles.
Gu Mingchun came down from the stage and saw Lin Yaoyao laughing and chatting with the girls who had been dancing by the arena.
He thought about how Shen Fengjiang had been distracted in the middle of the fight. Could it be related to them?
“Miss Lin, who are these people?”
Lin Yaoyao quickly introduced them. “Senior Brother Gu, these young ladies are here to cheer you on.”
Gu Mingchun was stunned, then gave a humble bow and thanked them.
Watching the backs of the Tianxiang Tower girls, Lin Feiyuan covered his mouth and snickered.
“They were obviously there to steal Shen Fengjiang’s soul. That kid’s eyes almost popped out.”
Lu Yan’er pouted her little lips and stayed quiet. Gu Mingchun clasped his hands and thanked Lin Yaoyao.
“Thank you for your help, Miss Lin. I only won because of you. You are clever and quick-witted. I would be honored to follow by your side, through fire and water, without hesitation.”
‘Follow her?’
Lin Yaoyao hadn’t expected that helping Gu Mingchun win one match would earn her a little follower.
“Brother Gu, my cultivation level isn’t high. Would you really want to follow me?”
Gu Mingchun nodded quickly. Ever since he’d worked with Lin Yaoyao in the trial tower, he could see that her abilities were far beyond ordinary.
Shen Fengjiang had an extreme-grade fire spiritual root. No one of the same level could beat him.
But Lin Yaoyao had made Shen Fengjiang lose the big match without a stir. Gu Mingchun sincerely admired her.
“Miss Lin, from now on, whatever you say, I’ll do. I’m at your command.”
Gu Mingchun was sincere. He was the legitimate son of the Gu family of Changsheng, honest and steady, attentive in all he did. A truly dependable man.
