Every entertainer kept various kinds of wine in their respective dimensional rings, so they didn't have to go back and forth to the storage warehouse to get wine for customers. However, they only kept one jug of thousand-flower wine.
It was said that the wine was imported from the Xuan Dynasty and its brewing method was kept secret so that the price would always be expensive and a luxury liquor.
Gao'er finally realized her mistake, she was too hasty in her enthusiasm to get a customer. Moreover, her customer was very handsome even though some of his hair was already graying.
"Sir, are you from a Martial Sect?" Gao'er asked, forcing herself to smile. She told herself that the customer in front of her must be from a big Clan even though she had never seen the emblem on Xuan Ji's clothes.
"Ahhh, how delicious!" Xuan Ji was very satisfied after taking a sip of the thousand-flower wine. "I'm from the Eternal Sword Sect."
Then he placed a monster crystal equivalent to the Heavenly Emperor Realm on the table.
Everyone stared at the monster crystal with their mouths wide open, because the monster crystal emitted rare Lightning spiritual energy.
Usually, monsters had natural spiritual energy, occasionally some were found to have Fire, Wind, Water, and Ice spiritual energy.
"Wow, this brothel got a treasure trove. If it were auctioned, then the Martial Sects and big Clans would definitely bid high prices," whispered a fat Warrior who was being served by two beautiful women on his lap.
Gao'er was very happy with the payment given by Xuan Ji. "Did Elder get this from the Serpent King's tomb Labyrinth?"
Xuan Ji nodded, anyone would have guessed where it came from because the Serpent King's tomb labyrinth was quite close to this city.
He flicked his finger, suddenly an invisible barrier enveloped both of them.
"I will give you a top-class pill that can heal the damage to your Dantian and also one monster crystal so that your Cultivation base will quickly return to its original state as long as you answer my question," whispered Xuan Ji.
Gao'er's expression looked troubled, she was confused about making a decision. Sensitive information usually had to be purchased by customers through the Madam who owned this brothel. However, the reward offered by Xuan Ji was very tempting. If her Dantian was healed, she would no longer have to do disgusting work in this brothel. She was fed up with serving the men who sometimes smelled bad and had ugly faces.
"Madam is a Sovereign Realm Warrior, I'm afraid she can still hear our conversation even though it's protected by this barrier," replied Gao'er with a long sigh and her expression immediately turned gloomy.
Xuan Ji smiled broadly and took another sip of the thousand-flower wine.
"Didn't I say I'm from the Eternal Sword Sect? Do you think that old woman has better martial arts than me?" Xuan Ji quipped that the brothel owner was an old woman.
Gao'er felt what Xuan Ji said was true. How could a Sect Elder be a weak Cultivator? They were appointed as Elders because they were strong Warriors.
"What information do you want to know, Elder? If it's high-level information, maybe Elder has to buy it through Madam," said Gao'er enthusiastically, hoping that Xuan Ji would give her the gift he had mentioned earlier.
"First, why is this City so deserted?" investigated Xuan Ji curiously.
Gao'er was stunned to hear Xuan Ji's question.
Xuan Ji immediately nodded slowly, he felt his question was too sensitive and Gao'er was afraid that if she leaked information, the city lord would hunt her down.
"Don't worry, just say it. No one will hear our conversation even if they try to read our lips," he said again.
Gao'er suddenly smiled wryly and said, "Does Elder want to test whether I'm lying or not? If so, that question is too easy. Hasn't it been more than a year since the Devil Cult started chaos on the Tianwu continent, that's why the Warriors don't dare to fight each other or travel far from their Sects or Clans."
The wine that Xuan Ji had just swallowed immediately sprayed onto Gao'er's face. The other entertainers and customers laughed at the sight. They suspected that Gao'er had said something embarrassing, which was why Xuan Ji was surprised.
"Is the Devil Cult here too?" Only now did Xuan Ji realize that there was also a Devil Cult in the Tianwu continent that wanted to kidnap his disciple.
If so, then Xue Yao was not safe on this Tianwu continent. If she met the Devil Cult followers, then they would immediately recognize her Legendary Heavenly Dragon Physique.
"Do you know the Long Clan, do they have the Legendary Heavenly Dragon Physique?" investigated Xuan Ji. If the Long Clan in this continent had the Legendary Heavenly Dragon Physique, then the Devil Cult here would not care too much about Xue Yao because there was a Cultivator who was far stronger than her in the Long Clan.
Gao'er thought for a moment and said, "All members of the Long Clan seem to have White Dragon Physiques. That's also why they live on the highest mountain peak in the world, because there is eternal ice on the mountain peak that contains very dense and pure Ice spiritual energy."
Xuan Ji gritted his teeth, meaning his disciple would be hunted by the Devil Cult like she was on the Tianlong continent. This was because the Long Clans on the Tianwu continent and the Tianlong continent cultivated different martial arts.
He suspected that the Clans on the Tianlong continent were once branch Clans sent to keep an eye on the Demon Emperor. If so, the Xuan Clan here would also cultivate different martial arts.
"What about the Xuan Clan?" investigated Xuan Ji again.
"Oh, the Warriors of the Xuan Dynasty cultivate a variety of martial arts. But the main family of the Xuan Dynasty is usually the Asura Avatar that is enveloped in Hellfire. It looks very scary, I once saw it when a young master of a big Clan was sparring with a Warrior from the main family of the Xuan Dynasty," replied Gao'er, feeling that all of Xuan Ji's questions were very general and almost everyone must know them.
"Huh? He didn't die after using the Asura Avatar?" Xuan Ji was surprised to hear that. He had to use an ancient artifact belonging to his Clan so that he wouldn't die when he first used the Asura Avatar.
Gao'er felt that Xuan Ji seemed to know nothing or might have lost his memory, because he didn't even know general information. "Such a condition is only for the branch Clans, but when they reach the Sovereign Realm. They are also free to use the Asura Avatar, but their Asura Avatar is not enveloped by Hellfire."
"Each branch of the Xuan Clan manifests a different Asura."
"For example, the family of the General guarding the western region, their Asura Avatar is jet black. The family of the General guarding the eastern region, their Avatar is white and there is a sun above its head."
Xuan Ji felt that the branch Clan of the General guarding the eastern region was very cool because there was a sun above the head of their Asura.
"The branch Clan that served the Emperor's family had a Silver Avatar and there was a star appearing above its head," said Gao'er.
Xuan Ji nodded in understanding. He didn't expect there to be various kinds of Asura Avatars, even the manifestation was very cool. He was also curious about what a dynasty or guardian general was, but if he asked again, he would look like an ignorant person—even though he was a Sect Elder who should have extensive knowledge.
He then handed over a leather pouch containing the reward he had promised Gao'er.
Gao'er was surprised that Xuan Ji didn't ask any more questions, even though the information she had given was not sensitive. Even small children knew that information.
