SWNOVELS Chapter 341
Chapter 341: Chapter 337: The Little Trouble Xu Lao Won (10)
Upon hearing Tang Luo's words, Pan Xichang was so angry that her whole body was shaking. From a young age, all the men who saw her praised her for her beauty. Ever since she reached the right age, all men gazed at her with desire, even some of the male elders in her family did so. Sometimes, she could even feel heated gazes on her from behind, as if they were searing through her clothes.
Since then, she knew how powerful her beauty was. Today, Tang Luo actually dared to say that she wasn't even deserving of being called beautiful. How dare he!
This was an utter humiliation. Not only was Pan Xichang trembling with rage, even the onlooking crowd of Xiling citizens couldn't bear to see it. While they may have somehow understood Tang Luo's claims about their inadequate martial arts attainment, saying that these three young ladies were not beautiful amounted to blatant slander.
Perhaps there might indeed be women more beautiful than these three young ladies somewhere in the world, but no one would deny the beauty of these three regardless of their city of residence.
A wave of boos started to raise from the crowd. Even facing Tang Tianjiao, Xiling's most famous warrior, people wouldn't tolerate such blatant slander.
It is said that an army can embolden a person. Normally, the people of Xiling would never dare boo at Tang Luo. But now, united in their indignation, they sought to make their displeasure heard.
Among the three young ladies, the most resistant was the little princess of the Bai Family, Bai Jie. Often referred to as the pearl of the Bai Family, she was stunning with her clear and bright eyes, long trembling eyelashes, snow-white skin that emanated a faint blush, thin lips that were as delicate as rose petals, and her egg-shaped face that complemented her glowing eyes rendered any man enchanted with just a glance.
Based purely on appearance, Bai Jie was peerless, but the inherent scent she possessed fascinated others even more. This floral scent was so captivating that anyone who got close enough couldn't help but breathe it in. The young men of Xiling were no exception, many who saw Bai Jie were utterly infatuated with her.
But Tang Luo dared to say that she was unworthy solely based on her looks, how could she accept it? The insulted Miss Bai Jie immediately retorted, "If Tang Tianjiao can find a woman more beautiful than me in Xiling, I will accept your words!"
Being hailed as the first beauty of Xiling and the pearl of the Bai Family, Bai Jie was extremely confident.
With a touch of pride, Bai Jie held her head high. She looked like a juvenile phoenix spreading its wings, displaying her charms. Even Tang Luo could not deny her beauty.
Tang Luo asked in a somewhat speechless low tone, "I mean, when such a girl appeared, didn't you notice anything unusual last night?" Such high-level women would be immediately bought out if they showed up in a brothel for even a second! Especially considering they were still virgins. Even Xu Lao didn't have any awareness of this, and he was accustomed to the pleasures of the world.
"Well...." Xu Lao was also somewhat embarrassed, "I didn't look closely, you know, women look pretty much the same in the dark."
Last night, Bai Jie's body scent did intrigue him, but he didn't pay much attention.
Tang Luo sighed and ignored his cousin who lacked the slightest sense of vigilance. He turned to the proud Bai Jie and asked, "Do you know where in Xiling do most women meet their deaths?"
Then, he turned toward the onlooking crowd and asked, "What about you all, do you know?"
The crowd looked at each other in bewilderment, unsure of Tang Luo's intentions, but they sensed a premonition that the direction of this confrontation was heading somewhere unexpected.
Ignoring Bai Jie's challenge, Tang Luo, full of arrogance and madness, shouted, "Allow me to tell you, the highest mortality rate among women in Xiling is prostitutes! The place where women die most frequently is in the brothels! But who can tell me, how did they die!?"
This question echoed over most of Xiling, leaving a prolonged silence.
In the Tang Mansion, there were two places where Tang Luo liked to stay: the Scripture Pavilion and the Wind Media Department.
The Scripture Pavilion housed countless martial arts techniques collected by the Tang Clan, which could make him stronger; the Wind Media Department was home to endless information which broadened his horizons.
No one in the Tang Clan valued the integration and collection of information more than him. His introduction of information simplification and big data analysis were hailed as revolutionary by the head of Wind Media Department, who exceptionally granted Tang Luo some authority within the department.
Even though Tang Luo seldom went out, he was very clear about various secrets, the strength and movement of major families in Xiling, and especially the living conditions of its citizens no secrets could be hidden from him.
Xiling had been peaceful for hundreds of years, and incidents of people killing in broad daylight were rare. However, the Xiling night claimed many lives. Unknown to others, the place with the highest death toll during the long peace was not amongst outlaws or wandering martial artists, but among the prostitutes in the brothels.
Some martial artists, when venting their desires, tend to act brutally and cruelly at the peak moment of pleasure, and these acts are often lethal to brothel women!
On the eve of the departure and return of the Wancheng Treasure Ship by Tang Mi, numerous bodies were carried out from brothels in Xiling every night and abandoned at the Chakras. Even on normal days, a prostitute may die on the bed every three to five days.

However, despite these
circumstances, women did not aim
to learn martial arts. This was
because most martial arts practiced
involved body tempering which
results in hardening of the muscles,
roughening of the skin, and
enlargement of the skeletal structure.
None of which contribute to feminine
beauty, thus something that
image-conscious women could never
accept. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!

That's why the Tianxiang Building was the best brothel in Xiling. Apart from training their prostitutes from a young age, they were also taught a discipline called Yin Liu Jia. Although called Vin this discipline was not suitable for
combat, it could render women's skin tight and flexible. Most importantly, a body trained with spiritual power wasn't so easy to kill, making this
discipline an edge in competition for Tianxiang Building. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
As Tang Luo, who had been to Tianxiang Building, looked carefully, each
prostitute had reached the peak of Mortal Realm in terms of cultivation. Because
the body needs to be conditioned to such level limit to resist the abusive invasion
by the warriors.
As for the girls on the steps below? Tang Luo disdainfully commented, "If we are talking about that, can you three fragile women who can't even see your own insides withstand it?"
The door of the Tang Mansion was flanked by two statues of a lion stepping on a
pearl. Tang Luo strolled over to one side, placed his hand on the pearl under the
lion's foot, lightly squeezed it, and then addressed the three young ladies, displaying the stone dust sifting through his fingers.

The white stone dust was scattered
in the wind. Tang Luo's gaze inadvertently swept over the chests
of the three girls and calmly om e mentioned. You can't withstand a powerful grip in the heat of passion,
you can't bear the strength of a thrust, and you have no idea when death will come after one joyful moment. Aren't you several notches below the brothel prostitutes!?" The

Although Bai Jie didn't practice martial arts, she was familiar with spiritual
powers. Thus seeing the feat Tang Luo achieved with just physical strength made her soul white with fear. Looking at the stone dust falling from his hand, and again at the deep claw mark on the pearl stepped on by the stone lion, she felt a faint ache in her chest..
