27: Underground Society (2)

Li Fei twists the ugly bastard's head a hundred eighty degrees until his face facing backward. Effectively killed the latter in a blink of an eye. No remorse was seen on his face, he did it ever so naturally like it was his second nature after assimilating the majority of Peng Lao's personality into himself.

The three young women were still in shock upon witnessing the Scouts were easily eliminated like a bunch of flies in one fell swoop by the gallant gentleman dons in black cloak and white robe.

And then, their eyes glued onto Li Fei's handsome face.

"Are you guys okay?" Li Fei asked the trio, his voice has a soothing, calming effect on them.

Ruowei, the young lady who has bluish, slightly wavy hair with a lithe frame was the first person who regained her senses back as she nodded amicably. Li Fei had to lower his gaze a bit since her height was around his neck.

Zhihe, the tall and slender brown-haired lady beauty lazily stood on her feet with the help of her white-haired friend who has bountiful bosoms, Linlin. They stood at the same height to each other.

"En, thank you, senior." Ruowei remarked in their stead.

Since the situation was somewhat under control, Li Fei whistled at Ye Rui who patiently waiting in a darkness. By the time Ye Rui's figure was visible to their naked eyes, the trio rushed towards the woman in a wheelchair, completely forgetting the benefactor who had saved them from the beguilling predicament.

"Rui-jiejie! Boohoo~ I thought I would never see you again! We've been looking for you everywhere!" Zhihe pulled her older sister figure into a very affectionate hug.

Linlin and Ruowei followed suit, hugging their older sister from either side.

Ye Rui spread her arms as wide as she could to embrace them all.

"I am so glad to see you all are safe and sound. What happened? How did the scouts find this hideout?"

Linlin finally pulled herself away. "I'm not so sure. But, from the looks of it, this month's Scums Gathering might be the biggest we've ever seen. The Scouts were looking for a huge number of maidens for the past month. But this time… It's not just about the sex party. That old fart ordered his soldiers to execute the women and harvesting their organs."

"What?!" Ye Rui's face was instantly horrified.

Ruowei hugs her elder sister even tighter. "I caught a glimpse of what they did to them. They are harvesting their wombs."

"Damn it!" Ye Rui pummeled the armrest, tightening her palms.

She knew that the old fart practicing Demonic Cultivation Art. One of which was Asura's Dual Cultivation Art, the vilest form of Dual Cultivation Art which allows the practioner to draw Yin Qi or Yang Qi directly from their partners' blood. But this time, he had went too far by slaughtering the women like sloppy cows.

Li Fei's face contorted upon hearing it. Even though he's also practicing Dual Cultivation Art as a mean to strengthen his cultivation, he couldn't possibly tolerate it. Killing the innocent maidens and harvesting their virgin wombs were beyond his moral's compass.

"I think, we should get out from here before he realized that his lackeys are missing. Let's not dilly-dallying, Rui'er."

The three looked at their elder sister in bewilderment.

"You know this handsome Senior?" Linlin's eyes widened.

"He's my Shifu! His name is Master Peng Lao! Three of you must address him adequately or big sister will be very angry!"

They immediately kowtowed before him. It seems like that they're more afraid of Ye Rui than Li Fei's person.

"Haaah…" Li Fei sighed. "Let us skip the pleasantries. I can already feel the Demonic Qi is surging from the lower level."

"Shifu… What about the women? If things went according to his plan, the gathering will began tonight when the moon is in its peak height." Ye Rui expressed her concern by tugging on his sleeve.

Li Fei pondered deeply for a brief moment.

Although Li Fei didn't see any merits in helping them, he had a premonition that the Beggar King would be a big thorn under his blanket if he ought to raise in power since Red Light District and Slum District was adjacent to each other, only separated by the main road.

Pulling out the grass before it grows too tall would be the most logical option for Li Fei to ensure his business run smoothly.

However, it wouldn't as simple as that. Li Fei knew he had to plan a big scale ambush to ensure no loose ends that might grow into a bigger trouble in the future.

Li Fei opened his mouth after a short yet deep thought.

"We still have plenty of time then. Besides, your safety is my priority and that also including them. You don't want to put your own family into danger, right?"

"No, Shifu." Ye Rui's gaze landed on her lap.

"Good girl." Li Fei plopped a hand on her head, gently stroking her silky smooth hair. "Let us go back first. I'll see what I can come up with."

"En." Ye Rui nodded. She then smiles at her sisters as to reassure them that he's trustworthy person and will never do harm to them.

Before long, the three-stories building was visible to their eyes from a distance. The trio were agape wide when they arrived in front of the mansion's tall and sturdy red wood gates.

"If it isn't the House of Phoenixes?" Linlin inquired. And then she was taken aback as she came in realization. "Ah! I should have recognized your name earlier! Please spare my worthless self for not recognising your younger appearance!"

"Oh, seems like someone is quite knowledgeable, I see." Li Fei smiles on the corner of his lips.

"Of course! Who doesn't know the Master of the House of Phoenixes in the entire Yunhai City. Many young ladies in the slum aspired to be one of your courtesans, Master Peng Lao. I-Including three of us."

'Wait. Are you serious?!' Li Fei almost exclaimed his thoughts out loud.
