Chapter 8 – First Tutorial Quest (7)
Miaomiao was astonished. He had never dreamt that he would be scouted by a master so soon. But when he thought about the recent actions, Miaomiao figured why Luo Cheng wanted him.
'Was my system cheat that awesome? It said that my strength temporarily jumped to the 2nd stage, so this elder must have believed that a 1st stage cultivator like me has a lot of potentials.'
Miaomiao coughed to hide his pride as a unique existence in this world. He opened his mouth and was about to accept the offer, but he recalled that he didn't have much time left to complete the sex quest.
'Hold on. System, how much time do I have left to complete the tutorial quest?'
<<14 Hours, 4 Minutes, and 24 Seconds.>>
Almost ten hours had passed since the system had issued the first tutorial quest, but Miaomiao couldn't even find a girl to woo or a sex partner. He was running out of time.
Miaomiao bit his lower lips in regret. Yet, he revealed a bashful smile the next second as he came up with an absurd idea.
"May I ask for your help that I can get laid today before I can accept your offer? I have a unique disease that if I don't get to sleep with a woman once a month, I'll die. I haven't had a girl for 29 days now."
Luo Cheng frowned as he was taken aback. The corner of his eyebrows twitched, disapproving Miaomiao's sexual urge and his rude request. Of course, he didn't believe in such an absurd lie.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, senior Luo. If I don't get laid before the sunrise, you'll definitely find my corpse in the city."
Luo Cheng rolled his eyes and groaned in his throat. He wanted to smack Miaomiao, so he could beat some sense into this pervert's brain.
But then, he recalled that the Xu Clan's vice patriarch had been assigned to this town and opened a sect branch for the Silver Phoenix Sect, the strongest sect in this Aves Province.
The sect's disciples and elders were all otherworldly beauties as their sect techniques could reduce their age and improve their outward appearance from an abomination of a human being who was no different than a monster into a stunning young maiden that could fall a nation with her beauty alone.
The Silver Phoenix Sect was considered the holy ground for female cultivators. Any man who pursued their disciples or elders usually failed and got themselves killed. As for how they were killed, no one but the Xu clansmen knew.
Luo Cheng grinned as he wanted to teach this pervert a lesson, "I can help you."
Miaomiao's eyes glittered, "Really?"
"Yes. I'm acquainted with a friend in this city. Take my token and head to the eastern district of this city. That area is famous for being the best entertainment district. You can find a luxurious brothel called [Poseidon Spa House]. Show them this token and tell them that I sent you there. They will give you special treatment."
While Luo Cheng was instructing Miaomiao, he touched a jade slip that was hanging inside his robe sleeves. The jade slip was a flat rectangular plate with a smooth surface, which resembled a modern smartphone. Luo Cheng's finger injected his qi into the jade phone, which automatically transferred his text messages to a certain friend, who ran a brothel.
'Let's see if you can survive a night over there. If you pick an outer disciple that's disguising as a prostitute, don't blame me. Blame it on your D,' Luo Cheng chuckled.
Hearing that there were brothels nearby, Miaomiao was delighted. He accepted a wooden token, which had an engraved name [Luo Cheng] on it.
"Thank you very much, senior! I promise, after I've cleared my issues, I'll work for you!"
Luo Cheng waved his hand, "Do your best to surviv-I mean, good luck… Err, I mean, it's alright. I'll pick you up tomorrow."
Miaomiao detected Luo Cheng's suspicious grin. Combined with the latter's words, Miaomiao didn't know if he should trust this elder.
'Something is wrong again. Is he sending me to another trap? I've had enough of a random encounter with idiots. Can I complete my quest in peace for once?'

"…"
Miaomiao sighed and shrugged. He gave up being paranoid as the quest completion took priority. If he couldn't complete it, he would die. If he fell into a trap, he would die, too. Therefore, it was a better choice to die trying. Even if Luo Cheng would send him to another trap, Miaomiao wouldn't mind it since he didn't have many choices left.
Luo Cheng and Mao Miaomiao came to an agreement that the former would pick him up tomorrow at the spa house. Miaomiao bid his farewell and departed to the red light district on the east side of Mountain Goose City.
…
Looking at the departing perverted battle junkie, Luo Cheng shook his head.
'He's completely different from Xie Tian. That boy is more honest and pure, but this asshole is a freaking degenerate.'
Luo Cheng pitied that Miaomiao had a terrible personality despite having great talents and potential. The elder wanted to take Miaomiao as his second legacy disciple, but he hesitated if it was a good idea. Luo Cheng was afraid that he might give wings to a savage beast instead of raising an honorable saint.
'I'll leave him in Xu Xiuying's hands. I just hope that he won't die by picking a wrong prostitute.'
Indeed, Luo Cheng sent Mao Miaomiao to the most dangerous brothel in this city, which was the headquarters of the Silver Phoenix Sect's Mountain Goose branch, one of the two great sects in this city.
Many deadly women lurked there, preying on foolish horny men who stumbled on their turf.
…
The Mountain Goose City was considered a metropolis city by the local as its size rivaled that of a prefecture-level city in his old world. As the capital city of the Aves Province, five million cultivators and commoners lived here. Many people migrated into this city every day. Also, merchants and cultivators used this place as a trading hub and a gathering place.
Its technology level was the same as the modern world in the 21st century, minus cars, bikes, planes, and air pollution. Street lights, sewer systems, electric poles, and paved roads existed here. Yet, the local population ignored them as if they were there for decades.
Concrete walls stretched over 50km in length, protecting the entire city from invaders. Its 30 meters height and 20 meters in width intimidated random bandits and greedy cultivators away from the city. Mountain Goose Sect always sent their disciples to patrol on these walls to help the local troops keeping the order of the city.
The city citadel located at the forefront of the western wall, which protected the most important zone in the city, the business district. This citadel was the resident of the city castellan, who was an expert with 5th stage strength.
Skyscrapers and tall buildings situated at the west district of this city, the business district. Merchants, traders, and commoners flocked into this area for work. Half of the population concentrated here.
North of the city was where the [Mountain] located, the Mountain Goose Sect located on top of the 3 kilometer-tall natural wonder, and the foot of the mount served as an entrance of the sect. This place would be used in a few months to hold sect entrance examinations.
The south side used to be an entertainment area. However, a certain gang took over and turned them into a slum. The center of the south district was a giant colosseum, which owned by a family of an immortal. Still, even if everyone called it a slum, the town's order was better than the business district as no hoodlums dared to cause trouble there and provoked the hidden immortal.
As for the east district, it was owned by the Silver Phoenix Sect. All businesses and entertainment buildings in this area belonged to one woman, who usually stayed on the top floors of the infamous brothel, Poseidon Spa House.
…
Miaomiao followed the path that Luo Cheng had told him. However, it took hours for him to reach the red light district as he was amazed by the town layout and the technologies that these local people had.
Also, he found out the REAL market price for spirit drinks. It cost only 10 silver for a one-liter bottle of a low-grade spirit beer, but the previous tavern in the business district wanted to charge him a hundred.
Of course, Miaomiao didn't pay for the beer and the bar fight damages. He smirked as he bought a pack of six beer cans from a local shop, and it cost him only 30 taels of silver.
'I don't know if food and drinks in this world are so cheap, or these beer aren't that popular here.'
As Miaomiao was walking towards his destination, he visited street food vendors and bought a few sticks of fried deer meat and more spirit drinks to increase his yang qi. He ended up increasing it by another 100 strands just by eating and drinking.
At 9 PM, after 3 hours of walking in this big city, Miaomiao reached the promised land, the land of adults.
It wasn't hard for Miaomiao to find Poseidon Spa House's building. Its size alone rivaled that of a shopping mall or a five-star hotel in the modern world. With 20-story high, a kilometer wide, and unknown space within this humongous hotel-like structure, it stood out from other tall buildings in the red light district.
Miaomiao's legs brought him to the front of the brothel. A pretty receptionist in a short skimpy kimono, which covered half of her bosoms and one-fourth of her thighs, rushed out to greet him. Although this world inherited many Chinese customs, this woman didn't tie her hair into buns or a topknot. Instead, she let her long hair loose, which touched her back.
The receptionist didn't wear makeup as it was unnecessary for her. Her smooth and luster skin emitted a strong aphrodisiac aura that could cure any erectile dysfunction patients and turn them into animals in heat.
"Welcome to Poseidon Spa House. Is this your first time?"
Despite seeing Miaomiao's short hair, she didn't flinch or show any disgust towards him.
"Umm, yes. Senior Luo Cheng recommended me this place. This is his token."
Miaomiao passed the wooden token to the receptionist. His eyesight glued to her white mountains, and his little brother down there already woke up. As ignorant as he was, Miaomiao inhaled the sweet aphrodisiac aura, and his consciousness blurred.
The receptionist grinned and grabbed Miaomiao's hand. She dragged him into the building.
