Embracing Python

Blushing Sword Pavilion was an infamous establishment within the continent. It was housed within a massive red tower on top of an immortal mountain and it specialized in various types of male entertainment. The rumor was that it was established by a Spirit King Realm old lady with particularly heavy tastes. The pay was good and the men simply had to pleasure women, so a lot of people signed up to work here.

It became an open secret and a thrilling escape from normal life for rich and powerful women. Perhaps they wanted to spite their husbands or search for their own sexual liberation. The tower could satisfy whatever desire and business was surprisingly good even during the day.

Wu Qianyu held her master's arm as they entered the pavilion. While Chen Wentian talked to the one in charge, her eyes roamed around. There wasn't too much to see in the lobby but there were still quite a few customers that were arriving or leaving. The women's ages varied quite a lot, there were some even younger than Lin Qingcheng but the majority were middle aged. There were even a few venerable grandmas as well.

"She's here, come Qianyu." Chen Wentian tugged her hand and they went up the stairs following a male servant.

They arrived near the top of the tower, based on the number the floors they had to ascend. The servant led them along a corridor decorated with plush carpets and gilded walls, stopping finally in front of a closed double door of rich red mahogany. There was a slight murmur of voices from inside but the privacy protection was still quite good and Wu Qianyu couldn't sense anything with her spiritual energy.

"Wait here, the room is a bit crowded." Chen Wentian said.

Wu Qianyu and the servant stepped aside as Chen Wentian extended his immortal aura and knocked on the door. "Immortal Blue Dragon Chen Wentian, seeks an audience with senior immortal."

The voices became quiet. After some time of silence, a door opened and some half naked men left the room. Wu Qianyu expected maybe two or three at most but she was stumped by the time ten men filed out and there were still more! It seemed that this immortal had a certain preference as all the men were tall and muscular. Some were covered in sweat and it made their muscles glisten in the lamp light.

Her eyes inevitably drifted downwards toward the only piece of clothing they all wore. Some of them had ones that wrapped tightly around their waist, with visible bulges of varying sizes. Others had more normal shorts that hung loosely and hiding more from view. She did her best to keep her composure and a passive face.

Truthfully, Wu Qianyu was a very conservative and classical woman and would never think of doing something like visiting this brothel. But perhaps she could not have definitively said this if she had never visited such a place? She wondered why her master wanted to bring her here. Was it a test of her loyalty? Why would he feel the need to? She wondered if he was capable of getting jealous...

"Qianyu, stay outside." Chen Wentian said after the troop of men left, dismissing the servant as well.

He walked in and the first thing he noticed was the smell of sex that permeated every corner of the room. He found the immortal had put on a thin gauze robe that was almost see through and was half sitting and half draped over the couch. His eyes briefly swept over the entire room, taking in the various furniture and the large emperor sized bed. He noticed multitudes of male fluid that seemed to be splashed over every surface and had to hide a disgusted frown.

"Chen Wentian greets Immortal Embracing Python Mei Qiaofeng. I apologize for interrupting but I have an urgent matter." He bowed as a courtesy, hoping she wouldn't be too pissed off.

"Fine, fine. I've heard of you. If you weren't such a young handsome man, I wouldn't have let you off unscathed." Mei Qiaofeng giggled, uncharacteristically for her age.

She looked quite old to Chen Wentian but really, she looked less than sixty and quite fine by mortal standards. She also kept her body well maintained, either through supplements or medicines. Her skin was smooth, her limbs were toned and lithe, and her breasts were slightly saggy but still shapely and nice to look at.

"Thank you." Chen Wentain became serious, "I'm here today regarding the late Immortal Mamba of Shadow."

Bam!

Mei Qiaofeng slapped the couch in anger, smashing it into splinters. Her enraged immortal aura expanded in a split second and clashed against his. Chen Wentian was prepared and hit back with his own eruption of flames.

The walls were fortunately was protected their tantrum but the other furniture in the room were quickly being crushing into dust by their colliding auras. Mei Qiaofeng finally let up after finding Chen Wentian was more than her match.

"Fine. You're quite strong for a little immortal. I'll listen to what you have to say."

Chen Wentian retrieved a letter, "I found Jasmine, she is alive but being imprisoned by He Zicheng. Considering the bond both of you had with the Snake Lord, she hopes you can help her escape."

Mei Qiaofeng had a myriad of emotions on her face as she silently took the letter and read it. It was in his handwriting but he was able to sign it with Jasmine's spiritual signature. He was only able to reproduce it through his shadow fox with Jasmine's permission. Since she knew of Jasmine's true nature as a divine beast, Mei Qiaofeng should trust his words.

"Master..."

Mei Qiaofeng whispered to herself as she clutched the letter. The mention of Jasmine brought up bad memories of the Snake Lord's death as well as the collapse of their faction.

Tears emerged and overflowed down her cheeks, smudging her heavy makeup, "Master... disciple was useless... how could you leave before me... I'm all by myself now..."

Chen Wentian tactfully remained silent and let her grieve. It seemed she still had strong emotions about the Snake Lord and hadn't gotten over his death. It made sense for her to be a direct disciple of Zhuge Kang as she probably practiced the same type of snake transformation art. He was touched by her genuine emotions.

Mei Qiaofeng was still an immortal and she quickly got a hold of her feelings and stopped crying.

"Even if it's to rescue that little bitch, I'll help if I can kill some Eagle and Lion faction bastards." She said with a vicious glint in her eyes. "So, what's the plan?"

Chen Wentian inwardly sighed. Jasmine was correct, the other immortals really didn't like her. Still, one additional immortal's firepower was better than none.

He went over the general plan, leaving out the specifics of his soul art. He described how he had another immortal working with him that specialized in stealth and infiltration. That immortal would break Jasmine out of the prison. The breakout would no doubt trigger alarms throughout the sect and he and Mei Qiaofeng would have to cause enough mayhem and chaos for Jasmine to escape.

He described his ploy to lure either Qu Shen or He Zicheng away from the city. She pointed out that they would only have ten minutes before either one would be able to return.

Chen Wentian nodded, "Minus He Xinghan who would also be away, there will be five enemy Spirit Lords left in the city and one Spirit King. I will handle Qu Shen or He Zicheng, whoever is there. With Jasmine freed plus my disciple, you four will have to fight off the five Spirit Lords."

"Just you? Are you sure you can do it?" Mei Qiaofeng asked.

"I wouldn't be trying this if I wasn't sure. Now, I was hoping to find the other two immortals under the Snake Lord, Dust Scorpion and Sleeping Tortoise. Would you know where they are?"

Mei Qiaofeng could only shrug, "Who knows. They are both my senior. If that little bitch can't help you find them, I certainly can't."

Chen Wentian sighed, "Can you just call her Jasmine?"

"No!"
