Chapter 33: Unexpected

In the next moment.

Bang!

The door of the private room was kicked open.

"Who dares to occupy this place."

Before Liu Hong could finish speaking, he saw Jiang Yuan's face with a slight frown.

His expression suddenly changed, his angry face instantly turned pale.

"Jiang Yuan!" His voice trembled as he said, "I'm sorry! I didn't know you were here!"

As he spoke, he began to slap himself several times!

His heart was filled with fear and unease.

After the incident a few days ago, Jiang Yuan had become one of the most untouchable people in Lin'an County.

The only person above him was the local tyrant of Lin'an County, Li Hong.

Apart from that, there was Jiang Yuan!

Because of Jiang Yuan, the once prestigious Shenwei Martial Arts Hall was completely wiped out.

Dozens of people in the Li family were imprisoned, and among them, some were executed and some were beheaded.

Especially Li Hao, the former renowned master of the Shenwei Martial Arts Hall and one of the top experts in Lin'an County.

It was mostly because of Jiang Yuan that he ended up falling at the Zhenyuan Escort Agency that night.

Based on Jiang Yuan's performance in the battle with Lei Zhan that day, it was entirely possible for him to do this.

And in the past half month, they hadn't received any news about Li Hao, which further confirmed their speculation.

How could Liu Hong not be afraid when he thought of all this?

His own father was just a shopkeeper, nothing compared to Li Hao, let alone himself!

Just then, Jiang Yuan's voice sounded.

"Get out!"

"Yes!"

Liu Hong felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief, quickly turning around to leave.

"You, come here!" Jiang Yuan said to the old woman who was about to leave.

"What does Young Master Jiang want?" she asked.

"Use my name to intimidate Liu Hong. You have quite the courage. Don't you think the person behind you can protect you?" Jiang Yuan said.

Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's words, her legs instantly went weak, and she knelt on the ground trembling.

"Young Master Jiang, I have no choice! Liu Hong monopolizes the number one private room every day, but doesn't pay a single penny. His father is the chief constable of Lin'an County, and I dare not forcefully drive him away."

"Are you saying that I'm easier to provoke than his father?" Jiang Yuan played with the teacup in his hand.

"That's not what I meant!" she said, her face turning pale.

"Forget it! Bring me Shu Xiaoxiao's contract. I won't hold you accountable for this matter," Jiang Yuan said.

"Okay! I'll go get it!" she said, overjoyed.

She quickly got up from the ground and rushed downstairs.

"Thank you, Young Master!" Shu Xiaoxiao said softly.

"I happen to need a maid. From now on, you will be my maid," Jiang Yuan said.

"Yes, Young Master!" Shu Xiaoxiao replied.

Shu Xiaoxiao's face was filled with a happy smile.

Just a moment later, the old woman hurriedly ran back.

"Young Master Jiang, this is Shu Xiaoxiao's contract," she respectfully presented it.

Jiang Yuan took a look and nodded in satisfaction.

"Xiaoxiao, I'll leave this contract to you. Handle it yourself," Jiang Yuan said.

"Master, I don't want it!" Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head.

"Why?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"If it stays with you, I will be your maid. If I take this contract, you can dismiss me at any time for being clumsy. Now that I have a home, I can't go back, and I don't want to go back. If I go back, they will sell me again! If you don't want me anymore, I will truly be left homeless," she said, tears welling up in her eyes.

Jiang Yuan rubbed his forehead. "Fine! Stay with me for now."

"Thank you, Master!" Shu Xiaoxiao's face was full of joy.

For her, being able to leave Yunyan Tower is already a great thing.

These days, she has been on edge, unable to sleep peacefully.

Now that she can leave Yunyan Tower, how can she not be happy?

Moreover, the man in front of her has become a legendary figure in Lin'an County these days.

He has heard countless stories about Jiang Yuan in Yunyan Tower.

Originally, he thought Jiang Yuan was a fierce and powerful figure.

But now, it is clear that he is an unparalleled noble son.

And he is so kind-hearted!

How can she not be satisfied to be by his side?

But at this moment, Jiang Yuan is a bit puzzled.

The expected prompt did not appear.

According to reason, after changing Shu Xiaoxiao's fate, she should possess Innate Luck above the purple level.

She should have given him a Luck Seed like Gu Mo did.

Could it be because she is too young and hasn't developed it yet?

This speculation arises in Jiang Yuan's mind.

Just then, the sound of singing and dancing rises from below.

Forget it, there's no rush for this. Anyway, I have plenty of time. I'll just listen to the music first!

Jiang Yuan shakes his head.

He no longer thinks about these trivial matters.

In the following days, Jiang Yuan goes to Yunyan Tower every day to listen to music when he has nothing to do.

The performance that night opened his eyes.

No wonder the previous owner of his body was always lingering in the brothel.

No wonder those high-ranking officials and nobles like to go to the brothel to listen to music.

Not only because this world lacks entertainment projects.

More importantly, their performances are truly stunning.

It has refreshed his worldview.

Compared to their performances, the performances of his previous life were simply rubbish.

And now he is in the Nurturing Spirit stage, with nothing to do!

Idle and anxious!

As for Shu Xiaoxiao, Jiang Yuan has already started her medicinal bath to strengthen her muscles and accumulate foundation.

As for letting her undergo Body Tempering, it is still too early.

Body Tempering is a kind of torment and tempering of the physical body.

If it is done prematurely before full development, it will damage the foundation and limit future achievements.

Considering Shu Xiaoxiao's current age, it will probably take another year or so before she can start cultivation.

And now, the most important thing is to improve her aptitude, strengthen her physique, and accumulate foundation.

Once she starts Body Tempering, with her talent, she will definitely make rapid progress.

Breaking through is as easy as drinking water.

Her talent is much better than that of Zhao Ligao!

County Lord's Mansion.

Li Hong silently listens to the report from the person beside him.

After a while, he sighs softly.

"I didn't expect Jiang Yuan to willingly fall into decadence and spend his days indulging in the brothel! Could Senior Brother's words have such a big impact on him?"

He can't understand it.

Although the words the elder said back then were a bit harsh, they were also the truth.

Moreover, he only refused to directly become an inner disciple, he could still become a disciple of the Sunset Sect.

With his talent, he would eventually become an inner disciple, just without the same high status.

But based on what he has done these days, not striving for progress and indulging in pleasure, his future achievements will be limited, and he will eventually be forgotten by everyone.

When he saw the news that Jiang Yuan redeemed a girl's freedom, he shook his head even more, saying that he is beyond salvation!

Originally, he had a good impression of Jiang Yuan and had interacted with him several times.

But now, his character is lacking, and he is easily discouraged by some remarks.

And at an age when he should be brave and diligent in cultivation, he is indulging in pleasure.

In this situation, his future can almost be predicted.

It will be difficult for him to make any progress!
