Chapter 134: Found Her

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lightning flashed.

The dark street was illuminated for a moment before it fell into darkness again.

Thunder rumbled.

On the streets, the pedestrians were in a hurry, and the vendors were hurriedly packing up.

The street was in chaos as everyone rushed to get home.

The weather changed just like that without any warning.

Luo Qingzhou squeezed through the crowd and searched every avenue and alley that led to Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

Two hours passed.

He searched almost all the streets in the inner city, but he could not find that cold figure.

Could it be that she got lost and wandered around, crossed the bridge, and went to the outer city?

Luo Qingzhou thought about it and did not dare to stop to rest. He continued walking toward the outer city.

Unfortunately, there was lightning from time to time. Otherwise, he could use his Out of Body to look for Xia Chan from above. That would naturally be much easier.

The soul had a natural fear of lightning.

Most treasures that dealt with the soul contained some lightning in them.

Even soul experts did not dare to fly in the sky when there were flashes of lightning.

Unless it was a super-powerful soul that had passed the lightning tribulation.

Luo Qingzhou wondered what realm the soul senior who always stood on the eaves of Mandarin Duck Restaurant was in now.

He did not have to go to the Mandarin Duck Restaurant these few nights.

Because the Grand Princess was coming, the security in MO City was much higher. Not only were there martial artists patrolling but also some magic weapons that could restrain ghosts.

That soul senior probably would not go there again for the time being.

Luo Qingzhou was deep in thought as he walked quickly toward the outer city.

At this moment, dark clouds covered the city.

The entire sky was dark.

A storm was coming.

The streets were already empty. The pedestrians and peddlers had all left.

The shops on the street all closed their doors and used tables and stools to block them in preparation for the sudden bad weather.

Luo Qingzhou became anxious and quickened his pace.

After leaving the inner city gate and crossing the stone bridge on the moat, he arrived at the outer city where the houses were low and dilapidated.

After searching aimlessly for a while, he suddenly thought of something.

When the girl followed him out, she thought that he was going to the brothel to find a naked courtesan. After losing sight of him, would she…

He looked around and hurriedly barged into a shop that was closing. He asked the shop owner, “Boss, do you know where the brothels are located at?” The female boss stared at him in silence for a moment.

Luo Qingzhou was scolded and chased out by the female boss with a broom.

He could only search for it himself.

The brothels were usually open 24 hours a day. Furthermore, they were brightly lit and exquisitely decorated. They could be seen from afar.

Under normal circumstances, the heavier the rain, the better the business of the brothel.

Because at this time, many shops were closed, and the street market was also closed. People had nowhere to go, and there were very few places to entertain themselves. Therefore, many people who had money in their pockets went to brothels.

Of course, some people went to drink tea and listen to opera.

Luo Qingzhou walked along the streets and finally found a brothel with colorful lights hanging on it. He walked over and took a look, but he did not find that figure outside.

Logically speaking, Miss Xia Chan would not enter.

He went to look for other brothels.

There was still no one outside the second brothel.

At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky grew larger and thicker, and the thunder became louder.

There were no longer any pedestrians on the street.

Luo Qingzhou ran toward another street like a headless fly.

Following a man, he found a third brothel.

Suddenly, he saw three drunk men under a big tree to the left of the entrance. They surrounded a familiar figure and were drunk.

The figure held a sword in her hand. Her expression was cold as she stood motionless in the same spot. Her gaze was fixed on the entrance of the brothel, and she completely ignored the three men.

She was Xia Chan!

Luo Qingzhou immediately walked over quickly. As he did, he heard one of the men chuckle. “Miss, you’ve been staring at the same spot for so long. Could it be your husband has abandoned you and is inside fooling around with another woman? What a horrible man. How could he leave such a beautiful woman like you alone here? He must be blind! Miss, you’re better off without him! Why don’t you become our… Ah!”

Before the man could finish speaking, a hand suddenly grabbed his neck from behind and threw him out, causing him to fall heavily to the ground.

When the other two men saw this scene, they were about to take advantage of their drunken stupor to shout and beat up Luo Qingzhou when the latter kicked them to the ground.

“Come. Let’s go home.”

Luo Qingzhou looked at the cold girl in front of him with a serious expression.

So this girl came to the brothel to wait for him!

The girl gripped the sword in her hand tightly and stared at him coldly. Then, she looked at the coquettish woman who was swaying her hips at the entrance of the brothel to attract everyone. Then, she looked at him and said coldly, “You… were inside?”

Luo Qingzhou replied briefly, “I went home but realized that you weren’t home yet so I came out to look for you. I just saw you standing here.”

The girl still held the hilt of her sword and did not speak.

Luo Qingzhou could only say, “I swear that if I am lying, I’ll be struck by lightning!”

Boom!

Right at this moment, a thunderclap sounded overhead.

Then, with a crackling sound, raindrops started falling on them.

Luo Qingzhou: “…Well, I’m not lying. If you don’t believe me, you can go back and ask Miss Bai Ling. She won’t help me lie to you, right..”
