Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
On this day, a group of old men came to the brothel.
"Xiao Qing'er! There's no such thing as carrying a heavy burden. It's just someone helping you live peacefully!"
Chen Zhi'an sighed helplessly as he scanned the audience of elderly and infirm.
The brothel had only been open for a few days, and Chen Aman had already arranged this for him!
Originally, there were already twenty-one old men in the building, but Chen Aman was so ruthless that he didn't even inform him and brought over forty more...
Damn it.
What's the point of me opening a brothel?
It's like running a nursing home!
"Boss, they won't eat for free, they'll work!"
Old Yang, with white hair, suggested with a slightly red face, "We can build houses on Fox Mountain. The houses we can't finish can be rented out. In our free time, we can pull carts. Then we'll have money, right?"
"Damn it, didn't expect you to be an expert!" Chen Zhi'an glared at Old Yang.
Sending these old men, who were missing limbs, to pull carts, are you still human?
He sighed again.
Chen Zhi'an loudly declared, "Brothers, Chen Aman is unfilial, we can't do immoral things! Coming to the brothel is just like coming home. I, Chen Zhi'an, pledge that as long as the brothel stands, no one will go hungry! Just like the previous group of brothers, you'll still be attendants, and you'll receive a monthly salary of five taels of silver!"
There was silence below the stage.
The forty-odd old men looked at Chen Zhi'an with skeptical eyes.
They probably didn't believe it...
Chen Zhi'an coughed lightly in embarrassment, about to let Li Lanqing take them downstairs.
But suddenly, Old Yang's face turned stern, and he shouted, "You brats, why aren't you thanking the boss? Are you all mute?"
Suddenly, a uniform voice rang out: "Yes, thank you boss!"
There were only forty-odd people.
But the sound was as loud as thunder.
Chen Zhi'an was almost knocked off the stage in fright.
These old guys, their voices are too loud!
After a moment of silence, he motioned for Li Lanqing behind him and said softly, "Take the old men to the Golden Pavilion Gambling Den to check out the place. Let the old cripple lead them... If anyone causes trouble, let them lie on the ground and extort them! Absolutely don't arrange for them to enter the Tower Examination again, I'm afraid their bodies can't handle it!"
Li Lanqing's mouth twitched.
For some reason, she thought of the scene where the determined Young Master Yang won money playing Landlord the other day, but was extorted three hundred taels because he bumped into an old cripple...
"Boss, when it comes to doing things, you really don't do them!"
After muttering these words in her heart.
She cautiously led a group of old men towards the Golden Pavilion Gambling Den.
Afraid that she might get extorted too if she's not careful.
...
After sending off the old men.
Chen Zhi'an's expression became somewhat complicated, and he said softly, "Lao Qi, what do you think Chen Aman is thinking?"
"Don't know..." Liu Qi said indifferently, "But he probably won't harm you!"
Chen Zhi'an was slightly taken aback.
He sighed and said, "If it weren't for you mentioning it, I wouldn't have known there were so many big shots hidden around me... Sixty-odd Hollowing realm, one Virtual God Realm... Damn it, are the princes of the Great Tang also like this?"
Liu Qi sneered.
Far from it.
Except for the Crown Prince Li Chengding, the other three princes would be considered quite accomplished if they had a Virtual God Realm guardian.
The Third Prince Li Cheng'an didn't even have a Virtual God Realm guardian...
No one knows where that marquis got so many powerful old men from.
"I thought Chen Aman was a waste like me, but it turns out that I'm the only one, and this Lao Liu..."
Chen Zhi'an had always been puzzled as to why the Crown Prince inexplicably wanted to kill him, after all, he had no grievances or enmity with the Crown Prince.
Originally, he thought it was grudges accumulated by the Second Prince outside.
But now it seems.
The younger generation's destiny hasn't taken off yet.
It's the troublemakers among the older generation...
"Damn him. Can't afford to provoke Chen Aman, so he takes it out on me? Just wait for me..."
He muttered with a hint of anger.
Chen Zhi'an sighed softly, "It's time to officially activate the Attendants Department, Intelligence Department, and Logistics Department of the brothel... Otherwise, I feel like a blind and deaf man!"
"Wait a few more days!" Liu Qi said, "Both Xiao Qing'er and Chen Zheng are novices. Wait until they fully understand the Military Intelligence Manual and Financial Management Manual before doing anything!"
"It's up to you."
Chen Zhi'an shook his head.
Talent cultivation was something he understood a bit, but not much. Liu Qi was the self-taught genius in this regard.
"There's another thing..." Liu Qi said calmly, "There are two Virtual God Realm experts hiding on Fox Mountain. They've been there for quite some time. They might be waiting for me to leave... and then kill you!"
"Kill me? Why the hell didn't you say so earlier?" Chen Zhi'an's face turned slightly dark as he jumped up and hid behind Liu Qi. He inwardly questioned why someone would want to harm him for no reason. Could it be Chen Aman's doing again? He just wanted to quietly run a brothel, but trouble always seemed to find its way to him.
"Seven Brother... can you bury of them?" Chen Zhi'an asked with annoyance.
"I can bury of them... but for now, we don't know who they are affiliated with..." Liu Qi replied calmly.
"They all want to kill me. Why should I care whose men they are?" Chen Zhi'an was furious. "Seven Brother, get Yang Lao and let's bury them!"
"No need for Yang Lao!" Liu Qi said calmly. "They're just two Virtual God Realm experts..."
With those words, Liu Qi stepped forward and soared into the air!
Chen Zhi'an widened his eyes in astonishment. In the blink of an eye, Liu Qi's figure appeared a hundred feet away!
"Who goes there?" Two shouts suddenly rang out on Fox Mountain!
Two Virtue-Seeking Realm experts rose into the air: one in black robes and one in red.
Liu Qi stood with his hands behind his back in the void. "You've trespassed into the brothel's territory. I'll send you to your demise!"
"Arrogant!" The old man in black robes snorted coldly. With a mysterious seal forming in his withered hand, he shouted, "Supreme Seal!"
As he spoke, a demonic palm descended from the sky, covering the three-zhang sky above Liu Qi.
It was as if the sky was collapsing, and the immense pressure even left a clear palm print on the Crescent Lake.
"Break!" Liu Qi lightly tapped his finger, instantly forming a green giant palm.
"Boom!" The demonic palm was instantly shattered by the green giant palm. The giant palm continued its momentum, grabbing the old man in black robes.
Liu Qi stepped into the air, calmly saying, "Too slow. Supreme Seal isn't something you can use like this!"
"Die!" Just as the old man in black robes was trapped in the green giant palm, a dazzling sword light came rushing towards Liu Qi!
The sword light was as swift as lightning, engulfing Liu Qi in an instant!
The young man in red robes stood with his sword, sighing, "I am Li Shura. You dare to be distracted while facing me? Haven't you heard of the Bloodbath when the Shura's Blade is unsheathed?"
Li Shura was the Sixth Brother.
When Liu Qi arrived earlier, he had secretly taken a few steps back. Taking advantage of the gap between the two of them fighting, he unleashed his ultimate skill, the Shura's Blade.
With this blade, he was confident that he could turn this show-off into minced meat.
Watching Liu Qi being engulfed by the sword light, Li Shura sheathed his sword and sighed lightly, "Don't blame Li Shura. Once the blade is unsheathed... the killing is beyond Li Shura's control!"
"Oh? Is that so..." The sword light dissipated, revealing Liu Qi standing unscathed in the void, holding an ordinary iron sword in his hand.
Li Shura's face changed drastically!
"How are you unharmed? It's impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Your haphazard sword formation isn't as difficult to break as you think," Liu Qi said as he looked down at the sword in his hand, sighing. "There are always so many foolish people in this world, constantly refreshing my understanding of stupidity."
After saying this, he turned his head and said loudly, "Boss, haven't you been curious about what path I cultivate in? Watch carefully! In fact, I am a swordsman!"
With that, a brilliant sword light flashed!
A dazzling sword aura tore through the void, sweeping past Li Shura and the old man in black robes, and finally landed on the cliff of Fox Mountain.
Leaving behind a bottomless sword mark!
Wherever the sword light passed, all vitality was destroyed, and all things fell silent...
A breeze blew by!
The two Virtue-Seeking Realm experts standing stiffly in the void shattered like broken porcelain, turning into a pile of flesh and blood...
