Xuan Ye also didn't expect that Black Wind Ridge could be divided into so many classes. Below the Mountain Master was the Cave Master, then below were the Sect Masters, and finally there were Xiao Ling and ordinary bandits.
Obviously, this mountain owner is not a vegetarian. He can think of layer-by-layer management, which is conducive to centralization of power.
However, these are not important. He will leave here as long as there is a chance. Although it occupies natural danger, the Bi Ling Sect has many monsters at the Hunling level who can control the air and fly.
If we really find out here, wouldn't we be catching a turtle in a jar?
Zhang Chong saw that Xuan Ye was not too happy, and he smiled and took out something, which was the ring jade pendant!
Xuan Ye took the jade pendant, finally showed a smile, and thanked him several times. These thanks were sincere, but after all, the jade pendant was also taken away, and now it just saves the trouble of searching.
He will not be grateful to Zhang Chong for this, but is still planning whether these bandits should pay the price.
"We are all brothers, so don't be polite. Let's go, the banquet is already being prepared, I will take you to meet the mountain master first!"
Xuan Ye followed Zhang Chong along the mountain path to the wooden palace not far away. From a distance, it looked like various types of wood put together. It looked more like a skull with protruding cheekbones than a palace...
Along the way, he saw many houses, and occasionally he could hear women crying inside. Near the palace, he could even see naked women walking on the road, all of them looking haggard and with dull eyes.
"Brother Xuan, you may not be used to it when you first come here, so you just abandon the world. These are gifts given to us by God, and they are things that the strong should have."
Zhang Chong smiled, and even pulled a woman on the side of the road, and treated her very rudely.
When Xuan Ye saw that the woman was only in her early eighteens, she bit her lip and looked like she was about to cry. Although he wanted to look away, he was afraid of making Zhang Chong suspicious, so he could only enjoy the disgusting fun.
"Oh, it's not time yet. When the banquet is held in the evening, these white meats will be cleaned and served for us to enjoy. Don't be shy then!"
After Zhang Chong finished speaking, he pushed the woman down on the steps aside, as if throwing away a piece of trash, and continued walking up with a smile.
Not long after, Xuan Ye finally arrived in front of the palace. Unexpectedly, the plaque used in such a rough building was no worse than that of the Xuan family. It was made of hard and durable black gold wood.
There are three big characters written on the plaque: "Tianwang Palace", and the pen marks are three-quarters deep into the wood. It can be seen that the person who wrote it is not bad at writing, at least he is in the middle and late stage of Huanwu.
When he walked into the palace gate, he found that the inside was completely different from the outside. The palace was full of splendor and splendor, the floor was paved with large flat blue bricks, and the load-bearing pillars were not only painted with red paint, but also decorated with gold.
The most amazing things are the gold and silver treasures scattered everywhere, and the large circular pool in the center of the palace.
Xuan Ye smelled the strong smell of alcohol in the air and knew what was in the pool. Looking to both sides, there were a dozen naked girls waiting with their heads down. There were no seats in the main hall, but a yellow branch.
Cork bed.
Lying on the bed was a bald man with a plump body, not much better than a pig, who was having an affair with two girls.
Seeing such a scene, he trembled and almost vomited. Fortunately, he had a strong will and forced himself back.
Zhang Chong, who was standing next to him, watched with great interest and chuckled: "We admire the power of the mountain master. Brother Xuan, you have just arrived, you will gradually get used to it in the future!"
Xuan Ye nodded lightly, but in his heart he wished he could kill the pig immediately. Unfortunately, the green light pen was also taken away, and he could not ask for it openly.
It is impossible to defeat a large number of bandits with fists and kicks alone, let alone those despicable methods.
After standing for a long time while holding the incense, the bald man let out a long sigh, then picked up the two women with one hand and threw them into the central wine pool.
"Hahaha... I've served you well, I'll reward you with a sip of the holy spring!"
The two girls got up and walked shrunken towards the shore. One of them glanced at Xuan Ye and the two of them out of the corner of his eye, and a look of horror suddenly appeared on his face.
Xuan Ye noticed the change on the girl's face, but she didn't know why. It wasn't until the banquet started that she understood the origin of the panic.
Zhang Chong knelt half down and said respectfully: "Mountain Master, this is brother Xuan Ye."
Xuan Ye also learned to kneel down half-kneeling, lowered his head and said: "Meet the mountain master."
"Okay, okay, since you have come to Black Wind Ridge, you are my brother. Besides, you have shown great power. If it weren't for Cave Master Zhang's abilities, I heard that I still can't control you. I will do more in the future!"
The mountain master laughed strangely and waved his hand to the woman beside him. "Go and serve wine to the new Xuanmen Master!"
Before Xuan Ye could answer, Zhang Chong shouted loudly: "Thank you, Lord Mountain!"
He could only thank him, but he saw the woman actually filled a glass of wine from the wine pool and slowly brought it to him.
Xuan Ye stared at the purple-red liquid swaying in the cup. After a moment, he picked it up and drank it in one gulp.
Although the taste was no different from what he usually drank, he felt like his stomach was churning and it was about to burst out of his throat several times. Fortunately, he used his spiritual power in time to suppress it.
After a while, he calmed down slightly and shouted: "Good wine!"
"Hahaha..." The mountain master laughed, and the slender gray hair on both sides of his forehead shook. Just looking at his head, he looked like a bat spirit that had lost all its hair.
"Brothers, I have just finished practicing my martial arts and am a little tired. You go down first and celebrate together when the banquet begins."
The two of them retreated in response. Zhang Chong smiled and took Xuan Ye to find a spacious house halfway up the mountain.
"Brother Xuan, you can live here from now on. Although you are the master of the sect, your residence is no different from mine, and your treatment is the same as that of the cave master. This is what the mountain master specifically asked me to do, so you can feel free to accept it."
Xuan Ye thanked him and took a look at the room. It had everything he needed, and it was quite bright. After all, it was halfway up the slope towards the light.
"Okay, you rest first. There are still two hours before the banquet starts. I'll call you then." Before leaving, Zhang Chongran approached Xuan Ye and whispered: "She is still a baby, remember to be gentle~"
Xuan Ye didn't know what he meant. After Zhang rushed away, he immediately ran to the back and vomited. It wasn't until his stomach was emptied and even the acidic water was expelled that he felt a little better.
At this moment, the door of the house was opened.
Xuan Ye noticed it immediately and looked at it coldly. He found a half-clothed woman leaning timidly against the door. He immediately looked away. Thinking of Zhang Chong's words, he understood the meaning behind them.
The two of them were frozen in place, and the deadlock was broken only when the woman's legs became numb and she fell to the ground.
Xuan Ye took a thin quilt and put it on the woman, then looked at her carefully.
She is about the same age as him and has a tall figure. She cannot compare to Gu Meier's peerless appearance, but she can still be considered a beauty.
It's a pity that I'm a little thin. Maybe it's because the food on the mountain is not good, and I'm scared. It's a bit distressing to be thin.
"Master...Master, my name is Yun Xi, and I am here to serve you." The girl's voice was low, with a red cloud on her face, and her eyes were cast aside, not daring to look at Xuan Ye.
Xuan Ye was a little embarrassed. He helped Yun Xi to the bed and asked softly: "Who asked you to serve me?"
"Mommy asked me to come here. I heard that every... master here has a woman to serve him. There can be several sect masters like you."
After Yun Xi finished speaking, she lowered her eyes, bit her lip gently, and lifted up the quilt as if she was making up her mind.
Seeing the spring light in his eyes, Xuan Ye quickly took a step back and said coldly: "What do you want to do? I don't need to serve you, get out!"
When Yun Xi heard the scolding, she instantly turned pale. Especially when she heard the last sentence clearly, tears burst out of her eyes. She knelt on the ground and cried bitterly begging for mercy.
"Master, don't drive me away. If Yun Xi does something bad, you can hit me or scold me, but don't drive me away!"
Xuan Ye saw Yun Xi crying and her body was shaking. She seemed to be very scared and her voice softened a little. "What will happen if I drive you away?"
Yun Xi raised her head, big tears fell down her face, and she swallowed: "If the master drives Yun Xi away, then Yun Xi will become a public commodity... Not only will she not have enough to eat, she will also... need more!"
Before the words were spoken, she broke down in tears and lay on the ground crying loudly.
Xuan Ye's body trembled slightly, and he softened when he thought of the woman Zhang Chong played with on the road. But he couldn't guarantee that this woman was not planted to monitor him, so he had to be on guard.
"You should get up first." Seeing Yun Xi still kneeling on the ground crying, he could only step forward and help her to the bed, saying softly.
"If I don't drive you away, you will have food to eat and you won't have to be harassed by others, right?"
Yun Xi nodded, still sobbing, and looked at Xuan Ye aggrievedly. "Mommy taught me how to serve, and I must satisfy the master. Please don't drive Yun Xi away!"
After hearing this, Xuan Ye's face turned red with embarrassment, but he heard Gu Meier's sweet laughter deep in his heart. Thinking of that beautiful appearance, he immediately felt refreshed and his tone became much calmer. "You don't have to serve me, just live in peace.
Just get off."
Yun Xi was stunned for a moment, tears welling up in her eyes again. "Is the master dissatisfied with Yun Xi? Is it because Yun Xi doesn't look good?"
Xuan Ye quickly denied it. Seeing Yun Xi's unwillingness to give up, he quickly changed the subject and asked her how she came here and what she knew about the cottage.
After a conversation, in addition to knowing that Yun Xi was the daughter of a small family who was kidnapped on the way to the mountain, she also knew that women in the village were divided into three, six or nine grades. She was of the highest grade, but there was no more information.
This information was of little use. He urgently needed a magic pen, but he just didn't know where to start.
Yun Xi saw that Xuan Ye was worried, so she hesitated again and asked: "Master, do you have any worries? If you don't mind, you can tell Yun Xi."
Xuan Ye couldn't bet his fate on a woman he had just met. Just as he was about to shake his head, he suddenly thought that there must be guards where the woman was detained. If handled properly, it would not be impossible to get a pen quietly!
Thinking of this, he inquired about the place where the slaves were being held, including the changes of guards, etc. Seeing that the banquet would not start for another hour, he planned to go to the place where the slaves were held.
