Chapter 101: 101: Big Sponsors!

"It’s over, Lee Gaoyu." Feng Bo said. "Young Lord Xiao Hûo is the winner. Whatever, we must abide by his words."

Lee Gaoyu scowled at Feng Bo. "Hmph! Why would I listen to his words?! He’s nobody in this city! A weakling!"

"Oh, you must have not heard about him, do you?" Jie Rong giggled while chugging his cup of wine.

"Why should I care about him?! Even the Mayor himself would listen to me when I speak!"

Feng Bo waved his hand. "My friend here is ain’t nobody! He’s Xiao Hûo, the Grand Disciple of Tang Yigao! On top of that, he’s a Jade Grade Appraiser who uncovers Ma Yuan’s dubious scheme and corruption! You must have gone senile for meditating too long in your cave. Oh! Scratch that, you were just too busy fucking your concubines."

The other guests who were watching and listening on the side were laughing joyously.

Granted, Lee Gaoyu was a Dual-Cultivator, meaning he would need a lot of women to sustain himself. Otherwise, he would succumb to Qi Deviation Sickness.

His physical body was weak, yet overflowed with Yang Qi. If it wasn’t for his Dao of Morning Wood, he would have died a long time ago. Essentially, he would need to have sex with his concubines three times a day to quench his Yang Qi. Because of this, he was so happy upon knowing that there was a new humanoid race who had the ability to generate cold Yin Qi just like Yin Qi Cauldron does. The Elves.

However, due to his condition, he had no choice but to skip the auction day. Though he had sent his representative to attend the action day a month before, he almost had a heart attack by the time he heard the elven ladies were bought by someone with such an exaggerated amount. 150,000 Tael of Gold Coins!

Lee Gaoyu was furious. He felt like he was just being robbed in the middle of the day. And now, Lee Gaoyu couldn’t be more agitated upon knowing that the elven ladies that he needed to satiate his desire for cold Yin Qi had become the servants of this lousy inn!

"Bah! I don’t care!" Lee Gaoyu unleashed the tremendous pressure of his Yang Qi that had been stored for a while now.

At that instance, the table was blown away into smithereens. Luckily, Feng Bo and Jie Rong deployed their aura barrier to contain the explosion.

"You brat! Look what you’ve done to my cards!" Feng Bo roared to the top of his lungs. "You will pay for this!"

On the other hand, Jie Rong was upset that his pleasant night turned into chaos because of Lee Gaoyu. "Hmph! Let’s settle this outside! I will poison you to death!"

Just before the total carnage happened, Ash slapped Lee Gaoyu’s face till he spun around a few times before landing on the floor head first. Before Lee Gaoyu could get up, Ash had his foot onto his face. He then took out a very expensive Immortal Herb which could enhance one’s Yang Qi. In a sense, this very herb was akin to an aphrodisiac for men.

Ash flicked Lee Gaoyu’s throat, causing him to gage up and open his mouth wide. After which, he put the herb into Lee Gaoyu’s mouth, forcing him to swallow the herb as a whole.

"Ptooeyyy! What did you give?!" Lee Gaoyu tried to vomit out the already swallowed herb.

"Oh, nothing too precious. It’s just a Thousand Years Old Jumping Ginseng. That little fella would make you active for a whole night!"

"W-what?!" Jie Rong was fumbled. "You surely jest, Young Lord! A Thousand Years Old Jumping Ginseng is a Legendary Rank Immortal Herb, renowned for increasing one’s Yang Qi! If someone consumes it as a whole, the side-effects would be so painful!"

"Oh, I am aware of that fact, Senior Jie Rong. That’s why we need to kick him out before that happens! Zhu Yan, Guoqiang! Get this man out of my face!"

"Right away, Young Lord!"

After Lee Gaoyu booted out, the side effect began to kick in. Lee Gaoyu’s Dantian was bloated, scorching his visceral organ inside out. However, that’s not the only thing. He also began to feel the irresistible urge to take a big dump! He farted multiple times as if there was a machine gun in his butt hole.

"Urrrggh! What happened to my stomach!"

Ash laughed so hard seeing Lee Gaoyu holding his bums with both hands. And then, his expression turned grim and fierce.

"Hmph! I will be very lenient tonight since it’s my happy day. But, if you dare to step into my establishment again, don’t call me a merciless man. I will definitely gut you next time!"

"Gah! I will definitely come here again! You will pay the price for humiliating me like this!"

With that said, Lee Gaoyu left the courtyard, flying while holding his shits together, literally.

As he returned to the lounge hall, the guests were simply amazed by how the Inn’s owner was dealing with the situation.

"My, my... you are truly something, Young Lord. I would never imagine that you are capable of humiliating not one, but two Chief Councils in one day!"

"Tsk, tsk..." Jie Rong shook his head. "Though I am amused how you deal with problems, offending two great families is not a good thing, Young Lord."

Suddenly, the double doors swung open lightly. Soon, a fragrance entered the longue hall along with a faint breeze. Curious, Ash glanced at the source of the scent. There, he saw a beautiful young lady striding into the lounge hall while accompanied by two ladies-in-waiting.

He didn’t recognize her at first. But, he soon realized that the beautiful young lady was none other than Zhou Rui herself.

"That wouldn’t be a problem, Jie Rong." She said. Her flute-like voice chimed in the room. "Just as uncle Zhou Qing said, any slander or harassment that was addressed toward Young Lord Xiao Hûo would be deemed as a direct insult to the Zhou Family. As the Crown Heir of Zhou Family, I, Zhou Soong Rui, will ensure that no harm or calamity would befall this inn!"

Ash didn’t understand why Zhou Rui would declare herself as the current Crown Heir of the Zhou Family. Nevertheless, he was so happy to see her all dressed up.

However, the happiest person in the room was Yunxian. She couldn’t take her eyes away from Zhou Rui’s appearance. Usually, Zhou Rui would only use her boyish attire despite her job as a Golden Grade Seamstress. But that night, she was wearing a very cute hanfu robe that accentuated her girly side.

"Rui’er! I am so happy to see you!" Yunxian hugged her best friend tightly. "Why took you so long?"

"I’m sorry. I got caught in a lengthy debate with my mother. She forced me to use this bothersome Hanfu of all the clothes in my closet."

"Lady Soong Ai-ling is in the city?! Oh, my! I would like to see her!"

"En. That noisy mother of mine is in my mansion as we speak. Initially, she wanted to congratulate you in person. But, she is feeling unwell right now."

"Oh, dear. Is she alright?"

"Nothing to worry about. It’s just the usual monthly guest."

Yunxian immediately understood what Zhou Rui was trying to say. "That’s very unfortunate. I will visit her later."

"Anyway, congratulations for the Grand Opening day. We wish you endless prosperity for ages to come!" After she said that, Zhou Rui gestured at her ladies-in-waiting to bring the gifts closer. "It’s not much, but we would like to give you these humble gifts. Please, accept it."

Yunxian was askew as the two servants brought the golden boxes in their hands. "May I see the inside?"

"Definitely!"

Granted, the other guests who were curious with the content leaned forward to see what was inside each box with both hands. Slowly, Yunxian lifted the lid and guests were agape as they caught a glimpse of the items.

"Yin Yang Dragon Beads?!" Yunxian exclaimed. "W-we can’t accept this, Rui’er! This is too much!"

"No, no, no." Zhou Rui shook her head. "Young Lord Xiao Hûo had saved us from unprecedented bankruptcy by uncovering Ma Yuan’s schemes. Because of his deed, we also uncovered the whole syndicate who was doing the same thing. Much to our surprise, many Martial Sects also do the same. You can’t even begin to imagine how much money that we owed from Young Lord Xiao Hûo."

Yunxian clearly didn’t expect that the Zhou Family would value the young man so highly. The current patriarch of the Zhou Family, Zhou Shang, was a very powerful man. Rumor has it, he had the ability to see into the distant future.

Feng Bo and the other prominent guests were simply moved by Zhou Family’s determination to support the Phoenix Inn.

"In other words, Zhou Family is determined to become the sole sponsor for Phoenix Inn. My, my... this is truly uncalled for. Pray tell, Young Lord, do you still have the slot for another sponsorship?"

Ash smirked wide. "It’s contrary, Master Feng Bo. Phoenix Inn will sponsor your business in any way we could. As for the details, we will devise a plan later on. Right now, let us enjoy the rest of the night!"
