Chapter 64

    Chapter 64<div>


    The scent of the air purifier had drawn all the nearby people over.


    Cultivation level is the crux of a person’s life, the foundation of their existence. Discovering that cultivating near the bathhouse could yield twice the result with half the effort, people naturally wanted toe and see for themselves.


    However, most of the crowd weremoners, unable to afford the enormous sum of ten Lower Grade Spirit Stones,cking the nerve to go in for a bath, given the exorbitant cost.<div>


    Thus, they were content just experiencing the effects of the air purifier in the courtyard.


    This practice was euphemistically called “rubbing off a little good luck.”


    “Brother, don’t cut in line, wait your turn honestly at the back.”


    Someone in the queue spoke lightly.


    “I am Wang Ning from the Wang Family, do I really need to wait in line?” a few young masters said discontentedly.


    “Well, you can try and see if you can get in?”


    The atmosphere among the crowd turned tense in an instant.


    “I’vee here seeking a chance encounter, and if anyone dares to cut off my opportunity, I’ll die on their doorstep to show them!”


    “That’s right, I’m only half a step away from the Golden Core Stage. If anyone obstructs my breakthrough, they’ll be my mortal enemy!”


    “To enter Tangneng First-ss today, everyone must follow the rules. Otherwise, we might just go die on your families’ doorsteps together!”


    The queue was fervently emotional, showing no deference to these family heirs.<div>


    This bathhouse was a once-in-a-century opportunity. Not even risking life and limb outside the city in various perilous ces couldpare to soaking here just once.


    This chance was something they were determined to seize; no one could interfere!


    It was only now that the sons of prominent families realized many in the queue were heirs of great ns from within the city, all waiting earnestly outside, deeply inhaling the spiritual substance in the air.


    They no longer caused any trouble.


    …


    Inside Tangneng First-ss, with every cultivator’s face in the pools, beamed a blissful smile.


    Soaking to improve cultivation, and air purifiers to enhance insight—cultivating in such an environment, even a pig would be enlightened.


    The bathhouse was filled with exmations of amazement, with everyone looking overly excited.


    Making the most of every chance to practice, it was just a pity that most people initially only bought two hours’ worth of soak time tentatively. Once time was up, they had to leave to make way for others.


    “Boss, can I renew right away, I’ll pay double!”


    “Boss, me too!”<div>


    “Boss, as long as you let me renew, the little girl is willing to apany you for a soak too!”


    “Boss…”


    The cultivators were loath to leave the bathhouse; once they left, who knew when they could enter again.


    “No way, everyone must follow the rules, there are still so many waiting.”


    Li Xiaobai said tly and, summoning Situ Yanyu, began to urge people out.


    With that, the men’s bathhouse quieted down immediately. Situ Yanyu quickly emerged from the adjacent women’s pool, leading the female cultivators out, and everyone else realized that there indeed had been many youngdies soaking in the next room.


    Each female cultivator’s face flushed, abination of the bathhouse’s heat and the excitement from the elerated cultivation, which made them loiter reluctantly.


    Their rosy cheeks, their skin so tender it seemed it might break from a touch, the longing looks in their eyes, and the droplets of water slipping down their delicate necks made all the male cultivators’ hearts race and mouths go dry.


    Good heavens, this was a benefit segment! Not only could they enhance their cultivation, but they also had the chance to glimpse beauties emerging from the bath. Such a fine ce was hard toe by, even if you were looking with antern.


    The cultivators outside noticed this too, and they were all abuzz with excitement.


    “Did you see that? That was the young miss of the Ouyang Family just now, she actually came here for a bath!”<div>


    “Yes, that’s my goddess! Seeing my goddess emerge from the bath, in this life, I could die without regrets!”


    “You two brethren have a small vision. If we could take a bath with these goddesses, cultivate together—hehehe, now that would be a delightful story to tell!”


    “…”


    The female cultivators noticed that the numerous like-mindedpanions around them were all bowing their heads, their faces flushed as they hurriedly left.


    They were returning to their ns to report this incident, and then they would ask for more Spirit Stones to book the entire bathhouse.


    “Come on, next batch!”


    Li Xiaobai watched the numerous customers with a beaming smile. Today, Tangneng First-ss had a tremendously sessful opening day, something he could hardly believe.


    However, the bathhouse was indeed too small, with so many people outside unable to enter. Although business was booming, the amount of Spirit Stones they could earn was extremely limited.


    In the future, he still needed to think of a solution, ideally opening a chain of bathhouses.


    To dominate the entire Ancient Moon City with Tangneng First-ss bathhouses.


    …


    “Move aside, don’t block the way!”


    “Boy, I was wondering why I couldn’t find you at the Situ Household, turns out you were hiding here!”


    “Today my big brother is here, even if the Daluo deity were protecting you, you wouldn’t escape your doom!”


    A familiar voice came from outside, and Li Xiaobai frowned upon hearing it, the young master of the Xia Family hade knocking again.


    This time, Xia Liu had brought his older brother Xia Chuan to help him seek revenge on Li Xiaobai and wash away previous humiliations, not expecting the Situ Household to be deserted. Halfway back, they were attracted by the shop and entered to find a surprise gain.


    The crowd around them clearly recognized the Xia brothers as well, and they stepped aside, for this was the local bully, who often acted recklessly in the city relying on his family’s power, and they dared not provoke him.


    The Xia Family and other forces in the city were closely connected, and even some of the established major families were reluctant to offend them lightly.


    “Liangchen doesn’t like you, you can leave now.”


    Li Xiaobai frowned and said, this Xia Liu hade to cause trouble, affecting his own wealth umtion. This was a stumbling block on his path to fortune that he absolutely couldn’t tolerate.


    In front of him, there was not only Xia Liu but also an elder young master, majestic and dignified in appearance, but the things he did were not so impressive, to actually help Xia Liue and pick a fight.


    “Are you Ye Liangchen?”


    Xia Chuan brandished his folding fan with ir.


    “Indeed, I am Ye Liangchen.”


    “Do you know who I am?”


    “I do not.”


    “Xia Chuan!”


    The young master seemed quite pleased with himself, basking in the awe of the surrounding crowd.


    “And then?”


    Li Xiaobai was baffled, perhaps the other party thought just mentioning his name would scare him?


    “You don’t know me?”


    Xia Chuan appeared somewhat surprised.


    “Liangchen doesn’t need to know anyone, you just need to know I’m called Ye Liangchen, that’s enough.”


    Li Xiaobai stood with his hands behind his back, speaking indifferently.


    “You’ve got guts. In Ancient Moon City, even the other major families show my Xia Family a little respect. You’re the first to speak to me like this.”


    Xia Chuan’s face darkened, as someone in the city was even more arrogant than he was; in his eyes, Li Xiaobai was as good as dead.


    “Ye, if you voluntarily break one of your arms and kneel before my brother now, perhaps he’ll let you off as if you were a fart.”


    Xia Liu was quite smug, with his elder brother taking action; he could already envision Li Xiaobai kneeling before him.


    “Hehe, Liangchen loves to deal with those who think they are exceptionally powerful.”


    “If you think you have the strength to tangle with me, Liangchen is more than willing to apany you to the end.”
