209: When I have nothing to do, I listen to music in the brothel
“Meow…”
Upon hearing this, the tabby cat could no longer hold back. Was it being treated like a dog?
It stood up directly, its front paws clenched, revealing its muscular physique. It glared ferociously at Xie Weilou, its mouth continuously smacking, clearly cursing in a very unpleasant manner, ready to give Xie Weilou a big slap at any moment.
Xie Weilou took a step back and said in surprise, “This truly is a Sang Biao! It looks like it wants to hit me…”
Ding-a-ling!
The tabby cat leaped off the stone stool, stood upright, clenched its paws, and walked step by step towards Xie Weilou. However, when it reached one meter, the iron chain tightened, making it impossible to move further.
Xie Weilou’s smile deepened, and he wiggled his foot in front of the tabby cat: “Sang Biao, come hit me!”
“Meow…”
The tabby cat, unable to bear it any longer, let out an angry roar and abruptly dragged the large iron ball, charging towards Xie Weilou.
This iron ball looked only the size of a watermelon, but it weighed at least two to three hundred catties. The moment it rolled, the stone slabs on the ground shattered.
“Holy crap! The cat’s attacking people…”
Xie Weilou immediately fled.
“Meow…”
The tabby cat chased directly after him, the iron chain clanking, the iron ball smashing the ground, sending sparks flying.
Then, a bizarre scene unfolded: a cat chased Xie Weilou, who fled through the Imperial Palace, then out of the Imperial Palace, pursuing him for three consecutive streets before finally letting him go.

Night.
White Jade Capital.
Inside a pavilion.
Yan Ruyu and Nightingale were playing chess.
Nightingale said, “The Four Ferocious Generals are dead! Xie Weilou is alive and well, and has even obtained the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow.”
Yan Ruyu’s eyes were deep: “We had to invite the West Chu Sword Immortal just to control the Four Ferocious Generals. I didn’t expect them to be killed, which means we’ve lost a card. Now that Xie Weilou has obtained the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, things are even more troublesome.”
Nightingale said, “When the Xia Emperor gave him the Phoenix Blood, you probably guessed some things, didn't you?”
Yan Ruyu shook her head: “I only understood this matter when my Imperial Father planned to send him to Han Shui Temple. I initially thought the Four Ferocious Generals could take the opportunity to eliminate him, but I didn’t expect him to still have such great luck. He was already difficult to kill before, and now that he has obtained the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, he will certainly be even more valued by my Imperial Father. Killing him will be even more difficult.”
Nightingale frowned: “Do you really want to kill him that much?”
Yan Ruyu said indifferently: “Do you believe that one day, those rumors in the palace about Xie Weilou becoming the Imperial Son-in-Law might actually come true?”
Words are a lethal weapon, but they are also key to bringing certain things about. Initial rumors might just be a test, but when people get used to such talk, when things actually happen, they will instead feel that everything is perfectly normal.
With the identity of the Tianquan Division, the Emperor’s token, and now the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in hand, Xie Weilou’s situation has naturally changed.
Nightingale fell silent upon hearing this; matters of the Imperial Family were indeed very troublesome.
“…”
Yan Ruyu said no more and continued to make her move.
Outside White Jade Capital.
Xie Weilou arrived with his brothers from the Tianquan Division. He had promised to treat his brothers to a night of music at the pleasure house; how could he deceive them?
“Oh! The Young Master has arrived.”
A middle-aged beautiful woman immediately came forward to greet him.
Xie Weilou casually pulled out a large wad of banknotes and said grandly, “Since I’m free, I’ve come to listen to music at the pleasure house. This Young Master will host a banquet for my brothers tonight. Immediately prepare fine wine and delicious dishes. Money is no object!”
“Hehe! Thank you, Young Master.”
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others chuckled. The Young Master was paying, which was great.
From now on, whoever dared to speak ill of the Young Master would immediately be met with a shoe to the face.
Having been Captians of the Tianquan Division for so long, the Young Master was the best-tempered royal noble they had ever met.
Of course, he was only good-tempered to his own people!
The middle-aged beautiful woman quickly said, “Young Master, please enter the building!”
Xie Weilou’s face straightened: “What do you mean, ‘Young Master, please enter the building’? You should say, ‘Gentlemen, please enter the building’!”
The middle-aged beautiful woman looked helpless. She could tell that Xie Weilou was still unhappy about her stopping him from entering earlier for a thousand taels. She sighed, “Gentlemen, please enter the building.”
“That’s more like it!”
Xie Weilou nodded, fully satisfied, and then entered White Jade Capital.
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others also puffed out their chests and followed him in. They had to admit, the middle-aged beautiful woman’s address of ‘Gentlemen’ made them feel great!
Third floor.
Fine wine and delicious food were prepared.
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others raised their wine cups: “Congratulations, Young Master, on embarking on the path of cultivation.”
“To all my brothers, congratulations to all of us! Tonight, everyone, please don’t be shy, eat and drink to your heart’s content. This Young Master will cover all expenses!”
Xie Weilou also raised his wine cup with a beaming smile.
“It’s just the Xuanhuang Realm, is there a need to be so happy? Like some bumpkin who’s never seen the world.”
Just then, a mocking voice sounded.
“Heh!”
Some of the surrounding guests also had playful expressions upon hearing this.
Entering the Xuanhuang Realm was certainly not worth being happy about, but having a Waste bone (waste bone) transform into a spiritual bone and entering the Xuanhuang Realm naturally allowed for happiness.
However, they heard that this Xuanhuang Realm expert was chased all over the street by a cat today, which was very comical and funny, and seemed even more interesting.
“…”
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others raised their eyebrows. At such a happy moment, which inconsiderate person was spoiling the fun?
Xie Weilou looked towards the source of the voice.
He happened to see a man dressed in a pink robe, holding a folding fan. The man had an effeminate face, wore powder and lipstick. As for his cultivation, he was only at the mid-Shackles Realm.
“Demon-Human!”
Xie Weilou said in surprise.
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others paused for a second upon hearing this: “May This Young Master ask, what is a Demon-Human? A human-shaped demon? We only know of Demon-Humans.”
Xie Weilou immediately explained: “One who is neither male nor female is a Demon-Human. Unlike the eunuchs in the palace, this Demon-Human in front of us resembles a man but is actually like a woman, wearing makeup, exceedingly effeminate; but if you say he is a woman, he looks like a man. In short, this is not a proper being, I call him a Demon-Human!”
“So this is a Demon-Human?”
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others also stared at the pink-robed man in shock, having gained new knowledge!
“You… you’re courting death! Do you know who This Young Master is?”
The pink-robed man gripped his folding fan, his face grim as he stared at Xie Weilou.
Xie Weilou looked at Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, and the others in surprise: “Who is he? Do you know?”
Zhao Hu said, “We know! The Young Master just said, he’s a Demon-Human!”
“Right!”
Xie Weilou smiled and nodded.
“Presumptuous!”
The pink-robed man instantly stood up. He said angrily, “I am Yan Xu, son of the Prince of Jin, and a disciple of the Hehuan Sect.”
“…”
The scene instantly fell silent.
Great Xia had three enfeoffed kings, all holding high positions and power. The Prince of Jin was one of them, in charge of the eastern military power. Was the person in front of them the son of the Prince of Jin?
Everyone gazed at Yan Xu. The Prince of Jin had three sons; the eldest and second sons were both in charge of military affairs.
Only the youngest son was extremely mysterious, having never appeared. It was said that he was a disciple of a major sect. Was the person in front of them that third son?
A disciple of the Hehuan Sect?
The Prince of Jin probably wouldn’t even dare to mention this matter. No wonder the person was so mysterious; he simply couldn’t be presented. This was naturally very mysterious!
Seeing the silence around him, Yan Xu’s face showed a sinister smile. He looked coldly at Xie Weilou and said, “Now that you know my identity, are you afraid? Immediately kneel and apologize, and I might consider giving you a chance to live.”
Xie Weilou’s face darkened upon hearing this: “Just by looking at your face, I know you’re not a proper being. You have the look of a lecherous scoundrel, yet you dare to impersonate the son of the Prince of Jin? Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, go drag him over here!”
“Yes, sir!”
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu immediately rushed towards Yan Xu.
