Ancient Market, Killing Tower.
Located on the southern outskirts of Ancient Market was a five-layer stone tower.
Built amidst a bamboo forest, the stone tower appeared desolate and dilapidated from the outside. However, stepping inside revealed an entirely different world.
What seemed to be the broken shell of a stone tower concealed within it flourishing willows and flowery doors, pillars of lacquered red and jade, its corridors hung with colorful silk curtains replete with fragrance, filled with chirping birds and demure, elegant ladies, an assault of perfumes on the senses.
This branch of Daning's largest assassin organization looked more like a luxurious brothel.
Indeed, this was Ancient Market's most notorious den of opulence, home to the market's most beautiful women, the finest wine, and the most delectable cuisine.
It was enough to make most men linger, forgetting themselves in a haze of indulgence and reverie.
