Chapter 309


    <strong><strong><em>Neen Kilometres Street</em></strong></strong>


    Upon arriving in another spot, Mu Yu spotted a maiden exiting anotherpartment. Herpartment was Twenty-Eight Kilometre Street. She was a Body Severing Realm cultivator. What should’ve been revealed was covered, yet what shouldn’t have been revealed was revealed in all its glory. Mu Yu couldn’t help doing a double take.


    She gave Mu Yu an entrancing smile upon seeing him and would send flirtatious gestures, making her hairs stand up. She only stopped on Mu Yu for a second or two before moving her attention to Ku Mu.


    “You look really manly. Could we be friends?” The maiden ambled over and hugged Ku Mu’s arm. She flirted with her eyes. She nced at Mu Yu out of the corner of her eyes and giggled with her mouth covered. “Don’t be sad, Kiddo. I prefer mature men over kids still wet behind the ears.”


    “Who you calling a kid? Mind your manners, Lady,” responded Mu Yu.


    “Don’t call medy. Call me ‘Miss’. I’m only twenty this year.” She looked back to Ku Mu and licked her lips.


    “Back off,” asserted Ku Mu.


    Mu Yu pulled Ku Mu behind him and sternly warned, “Hear that? Gramps told you to take a hike.”


    “Kekeke. I’m busy at the moment, so I won’t stoop down to your level. Don’t leave, Uncle. Wait for me toe back.” She kept turning back to flirt with Ku Mu every few steps.


    “Lady, I’m a stud! Younger men are more energetic!” Mu Yu started touching his face.


    “Neen Kilometres Street is the unorthodox sects’ territory. I’ve never been here, so stay vignt. I think she’s from an unorthodox faction. The people they take a liking to are based on their own tastes. It’d be perfectly normal if she liked women.”


    <em>Or maybe she’s just into old men</em>, Mu Yu thought, following behind Ku Mu.


    Buildings on the street featured deep depths and spacious yards. Not all of the buildings were stores, supposedly. There were uncanny noisesing from the buildings. If one were to describe it, it resembled gnashing teeth or des grinding flesh.


    A store named Heart Vanquishing Store hung a human skull at the front door. There were two bloody eyes on the roof. The granny with yellow teeth sitting at the door gave Mu Yu a freaky smile. Her face was textbook ugly.


    “Handsome Lad, how about some fun with me?”


    “Deep breaths, Mu Yu, deep breaths,” Mu Yu repeated upon hearing the voice of a girl from the granny.


    “My name is Xiaohong, hehehehe.”


    “You don’t see me. You don’t see me,” Mu Yu chanted. “Are there no normal people on this street?”


    Mu Yu dashed to Ku Mu and heaved a big breath. They only stopped again when the granny was finally out of sight.


    “What’s wrong with the people here? Why didn’t the maiden like me? Why a granny? This street is defies logic.”


    “Expecting popr logic from unorthodox people? I’m not sure what to say,” Ku Mu teased. “I must admit thedies of unorthodox faction have good taste in men, though. You could lower your standards and ept, uh, Xiaohong.”


    “Are you really my shifu? You’re an imposter Shi Dengtian sent, aren’t you? The real Ku Mu never jests.”


    Ku Mu, for some reason, gave Mu Yu a friendly pat on the shoulder. “Look for Melodic House!”


    “Drunk in Five Steps, Happy Flower Garden, Flower Appreciation Garden, Soothing Heart Hall… what are with these names? This street is also strangely quiet.”


    “Heart Soothing Hall is Shadow Syndicate’s. If you want to exchange heads for bounties or search for someone, they’re a decent ce to visit.”


    “I’m guessing Drunk in Five Steps is a ce for drinking. What are Happy Flower Garden and Flower Appreciation Garden? ces for admiring various flowers?”


    “Brothels.”


    “Hehe.” Mu Yu felt he was still an innocent kid since he didn’t know.


    Due to the passage of time, the blue stone path lost its rough surface. The trees bent over on the side of the street looked lifeless.


    There was a resplendent edifice at the centre of the street. There were no other courtyards around. Instead, there was only one entrance at the end of the long walls. Instead of having a door, there was a hole in the wall that looked as if someone knocked it down. People usually picked up their pace when they passed by the ce. Somebody used red ink an emperor would use for signing decrees to scribble “Melodic House” on the wall.


    Upon focusing in the text for a while, Mu Yu’s vision turned into undting wavy images as if somebody was warning him to back away.


    No one dared to throw his weight around in the unorthodox faction’s territory. After all, their definition of “reason” was whatever they pleased. It was a losing battle before it even bean.


    “Are we just going to waltz in?” Mu Yu hesitantly questioned.


    “I’m not familiar with how they operate. Let’s just head in and see.”


    Mu Yu deliberated it briefly and decided to go through with it as there weren’t any guards.


    A curved stone bridge was built over a small pond. The tower on the other side was eight-stories high. There were pavilions and other structures around, as well.


    There was a middle-aged man snoring loudly on arge stone bench on the other side of the bridge. He didn’t have the aura of a cultivator. Mu Yu approached the man and called, “Hello?”


    Mu Yu pinched his nose because the man reeked of alcohol. He nudged the man awake. Given he knew Ximen Buxing, deemed it’d be easier to find Xie Bo if he posed his question as, “Hello, may I ask if Ximen Buxing is in?”
