The Eunuch Regains His Manhood in the Second Round - Chapter 50



50. What brings you here?

“Ugh, ugh!”

The Chief, who seemed to have been subdued by the blood point, was lying on the floor, trembling all over.

Despite being a Chief with second-rate skills, strong enough to be counted among the best even in the underworld, he was nothing more than a puppy in front of a tiger when facing my senior brother.

Tap, tap.

My senior brother, who had subdued the Chief and pressed his blood point in just a few days, dusted off his hands.

“Subdued him. Junior brother.”

He said with a bright smile, which didn’t match the violent atmosphere.

When the absolute beauty smiled, the dull and bleak first floor of the brothel seemed to brighten up for a moment.

From noble mtl dot com

Like a Samoyed that had caught the frisbee I threw and ran back, he looked at me with a cute expression and eyes, asking for praise.

Cute?

‘I’ve gone mad.’

To think a man looked cute even for a moment.

This won’t do. I am a perfectly normal person with a strong s*xual desire and preference for big-breasted glamorous beauties.

No matter how a man looks, I am never attracted to him.

“Thank you, senior brother.”

I took a step back and maintained a safe distance, taking a formal stance with a businesslike tone.

Seeing that, the boy from the Bae family trembled.

Thud.

He collapsed to the floor.

Fear filled the boy’s eyes.

“You can go now. From now on, stop stealing from others and live honestly, earning money properly. Got it?”

I gestured with my chin towards the door, indicating for the boy to leave.

He had followed us, but he hadn’t committed a crime worthy of death. Although I referred to him as a tail, in the grand scheme of the Hao clan, he wasn’t even a strand of hair.

There’s no need to kill such a kid.

He’s not someone who would cause trouble later on.

The back alley situation is obvious. That Chief must have gathered orphans and made them beg. He must have also made them follow us.

“Y-Yes! Th-Thank you! Great Hero! I will reform myself and never look at the side of Baesu again!!”

The Baesu boy, who had been standing at attention, quickly got up and ran away.

I turned my gaze to the chief, who was frozen in place.

The chief, who met my eyes, opened his mouth.

“Ugh… Hao Mun… Spying… I-I don’t know anything… Why are you threatening me like this…”

“Then why were you pretending to be an ordinary person while learning martial arts?”

“As you know, there’s a lot of work to be done in the brothel. So I only learned a bit of third-rate martial arts that are common in the marketplace… Do you have any proof that I’m a member of Hao Mun?! Judging by your attire, you seem to be from the Gongdong Sect. How can a martial artist from a sect that claims to be righteous be so ruthless?!”

The chief made a truly aggrieved expression.

His eyes rolled around.

“Senior Brother.”

“Yes, Junior Brother.”

“Since we caused a commotion earlier, the thugs will soon come down from upstairs. Please take care of them.”

“Got it.”

Senior Brother nodded with a smile at my words.

The chief’s words were not entirely wrong.

Unlike modern times, in the medieval murim, where the security was as bad as in South America, to protect one’s life while doing business, one had to either pay protection fees or donations to the local sect for protection, or hire thugs directly.

Most ordinary shops chose the former, while brothels with many troublemakers chose the latter.

So this brothel would also have hired thugs to solve problems with their fists.

In modern terms, they would be called bouncers.

Well, given the nature of this small Hao Mun branch brothel, the thugs that would appear would probably be third-rate back-alley scum.

Before I could finish my thoughts, five or six thugs with menacing looks, holding knives and clubs, stormed down the stairs leading to the first floor.

“What is this commotion… Gah!?”

“How dare you… Ugh!?”

Bang! Crash!

But they were all subdued by Senior Brother, who was unarmed, within a second of their appearance, without even uttering a single line.

Clap, clap.

Senior Brother dusted off his hands after knocking down the six burly men.

The chief’s eyes wavered as he watched.

“Is that so? I’ll find the proof and show it to you.”

I didn’t expect him to admit his identity anyway.

—

—

If he had admitted here that he was from Haomun, I would have been suspicious.

It’s impossible for an intelligence agent to confess first without any evidence.

If there’s no evidence, we just have to find it. I stood up and hummed a tune as I called for my senior brother.

“Senior brother.”

“Junior brother, do you have another favor to ask?”

As soon as I called, he ran over like a puppy, his eyes sparkling.

If he had a tail, it would have been wagging.

A tail?

A man’s tail, what a disgusting thought. I’m going crazy.

I erased the thought from my mind, feeling like my spirit was being polluted just by thinking about it.

This is not the time for this.

“Yes. Please spread your senses over there and over there to detect if there’s a secret room beyond the underground or the walls.”

I pointed towards the counter, the kitchen, and the storage area.

Judging by the structure of the brothel, there should be a secret room in one of those two places where they store the gathered information in document form and communicate with the Haomun Gamsuk branch.

If we can just get into the secret room, we can find evidence that he is from Haomun and that he has been instructed to follow us.

My senior brother was born with the innate ability to sense energy due to his Heavenly Martial Body.

A monster who could use his senses from birth, his senses reached their peak as he learned martial arts and opened his Ren and Du meridians.

There was no reason for me not to utilize my senior brother’s senses, which were practically a human radar or sonar.

“Okay!”

He would do anything I asked with just a request. My senior brother gathered his internal energy. The moment his eyes flashed.

“I found it. There’s a large space underground near the kitchen.”

At my senior brother’s words, the chief’s complexion changed.

He began to visibly waver. That meant bingo.

As expected, the future number one under heaven and a talent holder of the Heavenly Martial Body and the Great Master.

Even though his talent hadn’t fully blossomed yet, he was this useful.

I’m glad I joined the Joint Sect.

“Junior brother! I did well, right? Right? I did well, didn’t I?”

Now, not only with his eyes and expression but also openly with words, my senior brother demanded praise.

I don’t know why he keeps clinging to me like this.

He’s a man, but I can’t ignore him either.

I put on a business smile and spoke to my senior brother in a formal tone.

“Well done, senior brother.”

“Thank you! Junior brother!”

My senior brother smiled excitedly at my words.

I ignored him and laughed.

Alright, shall we enter the secret room and reveal the evidence?

After revealing the evidence, I had to quickly move on to the next step by cornering the chief.

Just as I was thinking that and took a step forward.

[Young hero.]

A beautiful woman’s voice resonated in my ears.

It was a transmission of sound.

Sending a transmission of sound meant she was at least a first-rate master.

That meant the owner of this voice was the superior of the chief who was groaning in pain.

But to think that there would be a first-rate master in such a rural outpost, not even in the Gansu branch of the Hao Clan.

It’s a waste of manpower. Normally, it would be an impossible situation.

No matter how powerful the Hao Clan is, they wouldn’t have the resources to station a first-rate master in such an insignificant rural outpost.

‘Is it because of Jeok Sa Wol?’

No, thinking about it, there was a reason to station a master.

The Flame King, Jeok Sa Wol.

The Supreme Leader of the Hao Clan, the leader of the Four Demons, and the number one in the dark sect.

To assist her, the Hao Clan’s leader, who knows the true identity of the Phantom Tiger Sword and is a disciple of Jeok Sa Wol, sends a first-rate master to the Huazheng County outpost.

It was entirely possible.

[How about stopping the harassment of our poor Chief Ha and spending some intimate time with me in the special room on the second floor? Hehe.]

A sticky and seductive voice lingered in my ears.

Just hearing it made my heart rate increase.

This feeling…

‘It’s Mi Yeom Gong.’

As expected of a courtesan from the Hao Clan, she starts with tricks from the beginning.

If I were an ordinary man, just hearing her voice would have aroused lust, but I am not an ordinary man, I am a grandmaster of the path of desire.

Instead, it was just unpleasant.

—

—

Who do they think they’re calling a pervert?

What kind of trickery is this?

Anyway, since the superior has appeared, there’s no need to see the chief on the first floor anymore.

“Senior brother. A message has arrived from a master of the Hao clan on the second floor, requesting a private meeting. I’ll go to the second floor for a moment, so please take care of the first floor.”

“A private meeting? No. Junior brother. It’s dangerous. I’ll go with you…”

Senior brother looked worried as he listened to me.

He pulled my sleeve.

“It’s okay. Senior brother, please trust me. Nothing will happen. If anything does, I’ll send a signal.”

Danger? What danger?

I was confident I could break through any trap.

The title of the worst eunuch, surpassing the secret powers of the imperial palace, Zhao Gao, the Ten Attendants, and Wei Zhongxian, wasn’t won through a game of Go-Stop.

Trust me.

Senior brother’s eyes wavered as he listened to me.

After a moment of silence, he let go of my sleeve and said,

“Okay. I trust you. You’re my junior brother, so I’ll believe whatever you say. But still, be careful. If anything happens, send a signal.”

“Understood.”

Leaving behind senior brother’s worries, I climbed the stairs to the second floor.

As I ascended the wooden stairs, the typical appearance of a brothel unfolded.

Sliding doors lined both sides of the hallway.

It seemed to be before business hours, as there was no sign of anyone.

[Please continue straight ahead, young hero. Hehe.]

Following the guidance of the message, I twisted and turned through the hallway until I finally arrived at the special room at the deepest part of the second floor.

Creak.

As I reached the door, the sliding door opened by itself.

There, I finally faced the courtesan who had sent me the message.

Beyond the sliding door, a beautiful woman sat like a painting, with a splendid flower screen behind her.

She wore a veil that covered her face, but her beauty seemed to pierce through it.

A peerless beauty with black hair, wearing a fine silk dress that revealed a pair of peach-like breasts, a graceful waistline, and a voluptuous hip line.

I recognized her identity immediately upon seeing her.

The most beautiful woman in Sichuan, Yeom Hee Neung Wol Hyang.

—

—

As her nickname suggests, she is not only the most beautiful woman in Sichuan Province but also a candidate for the next most beautiful woman in the world. She is the only celestial courtesan of Baekhwalu, the best brothel in Chengdu, Sichuan Province. Usually, she covers her face with a veil, and only those who pass the test of the Four Arts (琴棋書畵) can see her bare face, making her the most sought-after courtesan in Sichuan.

The services she provides at Baekhwalu are limited to playing the geomungo and calligraphy, and even those who pass the test cannot touch a single finger of Neungwolhyang.

Even if they pass the test, all they can do is watch her like a flower at an idol concert, listening to her geomungo performance while drinking.

Despite this, there were countless elegant men who took the test just to see Neungwolhyang. Rumors spread beyond Sichuan, and people even came from other regions. Moreover, all the men who had a drinking session with her were said to be completely satisfied.

Of course, it was as natural for a courtesan to belong to the Hao clan as it was for a beggar to belong to the Beggars’ Sect.

But the problem was that she was not an ordinary courtesan.
