Chapter 113 So, Master, keep it up!
"How much?" the woman asked casually, withdrawing her hand.
Listening to what the man said, she knew that he was going to raise the price.
Ji Chen lowered his head again, and the pungent smell of rouge and powder gradually faded away, which made him feel much better.
"Ten taels of silver! Sir, would you like it or not?" the man said with a smile, gesturing with his hand.
The woman frowned. "Six taels of silver, or I don't want it."
"Deal!" the man said excitedly. No matter how he did it, he would only make a profit; six taels of silver was already a lot of money.
The woman secretly regretted that she had quoted too high a price, but then, as if remembering something, her mood improved.
"Besides this man, this one, this one, and that one, I want them all!"
The woman then selected a few more attractive girls and readily paid the man. Several burly men then pushed open the door and entered, taking away all the girls the woman had chosen.
Together with Ji Chen, they were led into a carriage, which slowly drove into the capital city.
Ji Chen woke up again to the sound of crying. He struggled to open his eyes. Who was it? Who was crying?
As he gradually regained consciousness, Ji Chen realized that he was tied up, and the crying he heard came from a group of little girls who were also tied up next to him.
Ji Chen shook his head vigorously, and his memories from before he lost consciousness gradually returned. He remembered that they were searching for a divine artifact in the Kunlun Mountains, and then... that was it.
Cold sweat beaded on Ji Chen's forehead. He only remembered that everyone had disappeared into the white light. After recovering, Ji Chen began to look around the small room.
Where am I? Where is Lu Yunqi? Is this some kind of magic artifact?!
Ji Chen tried to use his spiritual power to cut the ropes binding him, but found that he had no spiritual power at all! Not only that, he seemed to have been drugged, his body was weak and powerless, and he didn't even have the strength to stand up, let alone break the ropes.
Depend on!
Ji Chen immediately sat back down. What on earth was going on?!
"Master, don't worry." The voice of the Azure Light Cauldron suddenly rang out.
Hearing the voice from the Azure Light Cauldron, Ji Chen felt slightly relieved and contacted it, asking, "What exactly happened? Why do I have no spiritual power? And where am I?"
"This is the secret realm created by that divine artifact, and you have all been pulled in. Before a divine artifact chooses its first master, it can create such a secret realm. Those who enter the secret realm will lose their memories and cultivation, and merge into this secret realm."
"This is for the divine artifact to observe and find the most suitable master for itself. It will not cause any harm to those who enter the secret realm. This secret realm will only end when you finish your life in this world," the Azure Light Cauldron explained.
It has created such a secret realm before, so it knows this very well.
"Why didn't you tell us before?" Ji Chen completely relaxed after realizing that his life was no longer in danger.
"It's no use telling you. Whether this secret realm opens or not depends on that divine artifact. Besides, even if I tell you, you will still lose your memories after you enter."
"Then why do I still have memories?" Ji Chen seized on the blind spot.
"Because you are the master of the artifact! Master, you have forgotten me! I am also an artifact! Two artifacts cannot recognize one person as their master."
Therefore, this artifact cannot erase your memories, nor will it know of your existence. You just need to wait for others to finish their lives before you can leave!
"You mean I'm an unregistered resident in this world?!" Ji Chen instantly understood the meaning of the Azure Light Cauldron.
"You could say that. Also, Master, that divine artifact is also in this secret realm. Jing Shu said that the artifact isn't a good thing, so will they suffer a lot in this world?"
Qingguang Ding was somewhat worried. If the artifact was deliberately targeting them, their identities and experiences might be quite bad.
"Huh? You mean? Can they be worse off than I am now?" Ji Chen said with a self-deprecating laugh.
Although he was unconscious before, he was still somewhat conscious. Now he's been sold for six taels of silver!
Based on their conversation and their current situation, Ji Chen had already guessed that this place was a brothel!
He, the chief disciple of the Dan Sect, was sold to a brothel! And for only six taels of silver!!!
He's the one who's losing his chastity now! Even if this whole place is fake, if he were really violated, the pain and humiliation would be absolutely real!
"Ah..." The Azure Cauldron was silent for a moment, seemingly aware of Ji Chen's current predicament, but it couldn't help him at all.
"Then, good luck, Master?"
"Add my ass!" Ji Chen didn't show it on his face, but he was wailing inwardly. He was a straight man!
It would have been better to let him lose his memory and integrate into this world! Maybe he wouldn't have been sold and ended up in this situation!
Just as Ji Chen was thinking this, the door was suddenly opened.
"Stop crying! Once you're in Tianxiang Tower, your bodies belong here! If you cry your faces off, no customers will want you, and you'll regret it!"
The madam stormed in and yelled at the girls who were crying.
The girls fell silent instantly. Most of them had been sold to slave traders by their parents and knew their future fate. But how could they not cry?
The madam didn't have that much patience. She called over a few fierce-looking old women to take them all away, saying, "Give them a good lesson in manners! In a few days, let's see if their virginity can fetch a good price!"
After all the girls around him had been taken away, Ji Chen looked at the madam walking towards him and gave what he thought was a very obedient smile.
"Sister, I won't run away, I won't cry, and I won't make a scene. Could you please be a little gentler with me?"
The Azure Light Cauldron was shocked to see its master's fawning expression inside Ji Chen's body, and it was speechless.
Ji Chen was also devastated, but there was nothing he could do. He had been drugged and couldn't escape. Moreover, he had no cultivation and no status in this world; even if he managed to escape, he would be caught and brought back quickly.
So what awaited him... Ji Chen dared not think further, and smiled even more obediently.
The most urgent task is to preserve my innocence! Then I'll figure out a way to find Lu Yunqi and the others.
The madam was amused by Ji Chen calling her "sister," and she laughed heartily. No matter what age a woman is, who can resist a handsome man calling her "sister"?
"You're quite obedient, so I'll let you suffer less. Take him downstairs to change out of these dirty clothes, wash them clean, and then bring him back," the madam said with a smile, arms crossed.
A burly man walked in, picked Ji Chen up with one hand, and carried him away.
