Chapter 343 - Uniqueness Of The Pavillion
Yue's eyes flickered for a moment but she was able to control her emotions well and did not show anything on her face.
"Indeed, the Young lord is perspective and his cultivation is profound," Yue said while skillfully dodging the questioned.
Lin Mu did not say anything further and turned took look at the rest of the things in the building. Seeing that he did not deny her words, Yue confirmed that Lin Mu was a cultivator.
'I thought he was one of the rich young masters seeing his clothes, but he's actually a cultivator…' Yue thought.
While it was not uncommon for there to be cultivators coming to the alluring wisteria pavilion, this was the first time Yue was seeing one that was this young. Looking at him she could tell that he was somewhere between seventeen to twenty, but then from his shy behavior, she was confused again.
The pressure that she had felt from him was also quite a lot than she had ever felt from other cultivators. She had once even had the chance to serve a core condensation realm cultivator and even he did not have the same bearing that this young man had.
'It can't be… is he perhaps a disciple of a sect?' Yue thought.
She had seen their owner bring the three disciples of the Tri cauldron peony sect here a few minutes ago and she couldn't help but compare Lin Mu with them. While they seemed to be young, they did not seem to have the same aura as Lin Mu either.
The more Yue thought about it, the more she found Lin Mu to be an enigma.
'Better to just serve him well and learn it eventually… perhaps I'll even get some reward.' Yue thought to herself while she guided Lin Mu to the inner area.
There they came to a stop in front of a desk. An old fat lady was sitting behind the desk and she seemed to be counting gold coins one by one. There were probably a few hundred of them kept on the table along with some silver ones as well.
If such a display of gold coins was done somewhere else, the people would have had been throwing some covetous gazes. Lin Mu's gaze wandered over to them as well, but no hint of greed or anxiety could be seen. Yue was closely watching him, and seeing his reaction confirmed her doubts.
'He is indeed no common young master from the city.' Yue concluded.
"Madam, I've brought this young lord today," Yue said in a happy tone.
The old fat woman who was counting the coins looked up and a crooked smile appeared on her face. Some of her teeth were old and mottled, which made the smile only look that much strange. Though Lin Mu was surprised due to something else.
'This old woman is a cultivator too… she's at the mid stage of the qi refining realm.' Lin Mu realized upon sensing the faint fluctuations of spirit qi from her.
"Ah! You've brought quite a handsome young lord here today. So what would the young lord like today?" The madam asked.
Lin Mu tilted his head in confusion as he didn't really know what they meant by that. Yue grasped this and quickly interrupted.
"Young lord, we have some exquisite food that I guarantee would like it. We also have some of the finest wines of the county. And… if you want entertainment, you always have me~~" Yue said in a coy voice.
"Huh, food? I can go with that, I can have some more dinner I guess…" Lin Mu said.
For Lin Mu, eating was really not something that limited him. He could eat whenever he wanted and as much as he wanted. He still didn't know what his limit truly was.
"Then I'll send some of our finest dishes to the room. Would the Young lord like more of our girls to accompany him in?" The old woman asked.
"No, just Yue would be fine," Lin Mu answered.
"Yay, Young lord called me by my name! Hehe~~" Yue spoke with excitement as he rubbed her chest against Lin Mu's arm even more, which only made him blush even more.
The two of them then went to one of the rooms was located in the western wing of the pavilion. On the way, Lin Mu was scanning the entire place with his spirit sense. He saw that there were actually hundreds of people in the building right now.
Most of them were enjoying the company of the women here and some were involved in a certain 'art' which made Lin Mu quickly divert his spirit sense from there. But out of all the rooms he scanned, he didn't find any cultivators, only some commoners in the body refining realm.
'If they are not here, then…' Lin Mu thought as he turned his head to the eastern wing.
Yue saw his attention change, and she followed his gaze.
"Oh? Does the young lord want to go to the eastern wing? But I thought you didn't want the company of more of my sisters?" Yue asked.
Lin Mu's spirit sense was only able to reach the outermost building of the eastern wing, and he realized that it could not penetrate it.
'There're barriers here too. Seems like the eastern wing has more security.' Lin Mu thought.
"Ah yes," Lin Mu answered Yue, seeing she had asked him something.
Lin Mu lightly shook his head and continued walking. Yue too gave up and simply took him to the room that was assigned to him. The western wing was made in a curved shape where its one end met the other end of the eastern wing. If one looked at it from the above one would see that the entire Alluring Wisteria pavilion was shaped like a wisteria blossom.
The eastern and western wing met to form the petal of the blossom. In the center of the two wings was the corridor, and there were gardens on both sides of it. There were incense censors placed around here as well, with some hanging from the roof.
They finally reached the room and it was the one that was at the mid point where the eastern and western wings met.
"This should make it a bit easy…" Lin Mu muttered to himself.
