Xie Zhiyan and Lu Jinan were standing downstairs waiting, with no emotion visible on their faces.

Until a slender red figure appeared at the stairs, and they both looked up at the same time.

Her red dress is as red as blood, her black hair is as black as brocade, and her figure is slender and graceful...

When Yun Shang's exquisite and gorgeous face appeared in the sight of Xie Zhiyan and Lu Jinan, both of them had their pupils trembled to varying degrees and their faces were filled with surprise.

Xie Zhiyan was surprised that the person who showed up was Yun Shang, not Jiang Wantang.

What shocked Lu Jinan was that he had never seen such a Yun Shang, so charming, enchanting and gorgeous.

In his impression, Yun Shang has always been gentle, kind and gentle.

It seemed that the courtesan Yun Shang that I had learned about in Hongyan Garden had taken shape at this moment.

Seeing it with your own eyes is far more shocking than hearing about it.

Lu Jinan clenched his hands into fists, and a hint of red instantly spread in his eyes.

He unconsciously took two steps forward, with thousands of words stuck in his throat, but he couldn't say anything.

Yun Shang walked past him and went straight to Xie Zhiyan who was standing behind him. She bowed slightly and said, "Sir, my sister has gone to bed. Let's go."

Xie Zhiyan nodded politely, looking at her deeply: "She wouldn't want to see you take risks like this."

He hadn't slept all night, and there was a faint red at the corners of his eyes. However, this slight tiredness did not diminish his elegant and handsome appearance, but instead added a bit of wild charm.

Yun Shang paused and said softly, "But...I don't want my sister to put herself in danger either."

"This is Yun Shang's own choice."

"Let's go, Mr. Xie..."

After she finished speaking, she curled her lips and smiled charmingly, which easily captivated people's attention.

In that trance-like moment, Xie Zhiyan seemed to see some of Jiang Wantang's shadow in her.

At this moment, Xie Zhiyan finally understood why Yun Shang was so important in Jiang Wantang's heart.

Because their eyes, their hearts...are equally pure and kind.

She has the same unfortunate fate, but although she is a weak woman, she is strong-willed, unyielding, and has a sense of justice...

Essentially, they belong to the same category.

There are very few women in this world who can do what they do.

"Okay." Xie Zhiyan said in a deep voice.

Inside Fengyue Tower.

The entire building is like a bustling paradise, filled with an intoxicating atmosphere.

On the stage, all kinds of beautiful girls danced gracefully, their clothes were gorgeous and dazzling.

The audience was already packed with people, the noise was deafening, and every seat was occupied.

Until the moment Yun Shang came on stage, everyone present was immersed in it.

It was as if as long as she stood there, without any competition, she was already what a beautiful courtesan should be in their minds.

The beauty on the stage, a fiery red figure, slender and graceful, with a charming smile on her face that always captivates everyone. Although she has a smart and gentle appearance, her every frown and smile seems to be engraved with charm in her bones...

Yun Shang was dressed in a red dress, with a flower ornament on her forehead and peonies on her temples. She had a graceful figure and looked very vivid. She held a pipa in her hand and walked to the stage gracefully. She flicked her long sleeves and danced lightly and gracefully. She danced like a lotus with every step. She was dressed in red and danced like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world. She was the most charming and beautiful.

Every movement she made was graceful and moving. She was so beautiful that it was overwhelming, and so vivid that one could not take their eyes off her.

The strings became increasingly tense, and the music reached its climax, making the listener breathe harder.

Yunchang's dance steps also jumped up rapidly, outlining a graceful and elegant afterimage in the air...

Her dress fluttered like a blood-red butterfly, spreading its wings and flying towards the fire, and her ink-black hair fluttered in the wind. The word "shocking" could not describe it.

In the dark, Lu Jinan stared at the stunning Yun Shang on the stage without blinking, his clenched fists trembling, his eyes bloodshot.

He watched with his own eyes as Yun Shang navigated the brothel with ease, handling all kinds of men with ease, and watched her dance on stage...

Lu Jinan now clearly realized what kind of life the little girl he had pampered had been living and what kind of painful struggles she had been going through during those years when she was reduced to living in a brothel.

His heart felt like it was being filed back and forth by a sharp file, sharp and deep, bloody, and every nerve in his body was aching.

My heart aches...

How can it hurt so much?

Living is worse than death, and the pain is unbearable. This is probably what it feels like...

It was only at this moment that Lu Jinan finally understood clearly that the innocent, kind-hearted little Ayun, who would sweetly call him "Brother Lu," had long been ruined by those people in the Lu Mansion...

He covered his chest with his hands, pressing the area where his heart was, bit by bit. He stared at Yun Shang on the stage, his expression painful, and murmured softly, "The reeds are lush, the white dew turns to frost, the so-called beloved is on the other side of the water..."

By the end of the reading, his voice was choked with sobs and tears were streaming down his face.

"sorry Sorry......"

The cheers, applause and cheers from the audience intertwined and reverberated in the air like thunder...

In the inn, when Jiang Wantang woke up, it was already evening and the sky outside was beginning to darken.

The moment she opened her eyes, she suddenly remembered something and quickly stood up and ran downstairs.

As soon as I went downstairs, I met Xie Zhiyan who was standing there with his hands behind his back waiting.

Jiang Wantang stepped forward quickly, asking anxiously, "Where is Yun Shang?"

Xie Zhiyan turned around and looked at Jiang Wantang, who looked anxious in front of him. His eyes were dark, revealing a complex and heavy emotion.

He didn't say anything, as if he didn't know what to say.

The suffocating silence between the two of them was like a precursor to a coming storm.

Jiang Wantang looked at Xie Zhiyan's complex and dark eyes, and her heart sank suddenly.

She knew that something happened to Yunshang...

Jiang Wantang didn't wait for his answer and walked out directly.

Since he didn't tell her, she went to look for it herself.

Xie Zhiyan had anticipated this situation. He closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "I'll take you there."

An hour later, Xie Zhiyan brought her to the foot of a deep mountain outside Linzhou City.

The deep mountain was like a giant beast lurking in the darkness, emitting a terrifying aura. Mist filled the air, thick as substance, entwining itself between the trees, creating a spooky and terrifying atmosphere...

Just by standing at the foot of the mountain, Jiang Wantang felt a chill running up from the soles of her feet, as if countless icy tentacles were climbing along her legs.

It was like a huge ghost, looking down at her eerily.

Jiang Wantang suddenly had a bad feeling and looked at Xie Zhiyan who was standing beside her with a serious expression.

The latter's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said lightly: "This mountain is called Wuming Mountain. The locals call it Youming Mountain and Ghost Mountain."

"It is the most mysterious and terrifying existence in all of Jiangnan. It is said that anyone who has entered it, without exception, has never come out..."

At this point, Xie Zhiyan paused, took a deep breath, and spoke in a deeper voice: "The last clue mark left by Yun Shang is at the foot of this mountain..."
