Chapter 100: The Four Great Beauties of the Golden Wind Empire
"A man who isn't lustful, what kind of hero can he be? A woman who isn't bold, what kind of..."
He continued to boast.
"Alright, I'm just going to take a look, I won't do anything else."
Su Chen made a statement in advance.
Du Ziteng snapped his fingers, "Okay, I guarantee you'll feel right at home and float in ecstasy, hehehe..."
Seeing him so cheerful ahead, Su Chen laughed again, wondering where this guy he just met less than half a day ago came from, yet his roguish personality seemed to fit him just right?
Four beauties, does the Drunken Dream Garden have one too? I wonder if she's as pretty as my senior sister and Mo Yue...
Following Du Ziteng around, the two arrived outside the back wall of Drunken Dream Garden.
Su Chen asked strangely, "Du Ziteng, why aren't we going in through the front door? This feels like we're stealing."
Du Ziteng chuckled, turned to Su Chen with flashing eyes, "You think with this outfit, they'll let us see Yan Ziyu? Forget about seeing her, we wouldn't even get to see Su Xiaoxiao."
"Yan Ziyu? Is she one of the four beauties you mentioned?"
Su Chen asked curiously.
Du Ziteng replied while fumbling around the corner of the wall, "Yeah, she's the top star of Drunken Dream Garden, even many prominent figures of the Golden Wind Empire admire her, but she always holds herself in high regard and doesn't really care for those people."
Su Chen was truly amazed internally. Even the empire's dignitaries aren't given importance; does this woman really have that much of a reason to be proud? Isn't she afraid of angering them, eventually inviting disaster upon the entire Drunken Dream Garden?
"Let's climb in from here, quick!"
Du Ziteng, like a seasoned thief, swiftly climbed onto the wall using a small tree over 3 meters tall by the wall. As a Wind-attribute Beast Cultivator, Su Chen climbed the tree easily and gracefully, reaching Du Ziteng with just a step and a jump.
Du Ziteng looked back, shocked, and said with surprise, "You brat must've been quite the bird egg snatcher as a kid, huh?"
Su Chen smiled faintly, without speaking. The two perched on the wall, watching for a while. Once the patrols on the first floor of Drunken Dream Garden had passed, they jumped down from the wall.
"Follow me closely, don't get lost."
Du Ziteng seemed familiar with the area, crouching and skillfully leading the way. Su Chen quietly memorized the route to avoid panicking during escape.
Through a small grove in the backyard, they reached Drunken Dream Garden's back garden; occasionally, a few guests passed by with charming and seductive women, but they were too engaged to notice others.
"See the door ahead? Inside is Drunken Dream Garden's kitchen. We'll go up through the safe passage in the kitchen."
Su Chen nodded, but thought to himself, why is Du Ziteng so familiar with the place? Has he come here for entertainment and even wandered around the backyard and kitchen?
However, this wasn't the time to question it. He silently followed behind Du Ziteng, sneaking into the kitchen. The chefs and assistants were busy, completely unaware of the two agile figures leaping like monkeys onto the staircase of the safe passage.
They reached the second floor, but Du Ziteng stopped advancing to the third floor. Su Chen couldn't help asking, "Why not keep going up? Based on her status, Yan Ziyu should be on the third floor, right?"
"Yeah, but there are experts guarding the third floor. If we just rush up, we'll definitely get thrown down."
He glanced at the huge balcony outside the hall on the second floor and said, "Let's wait outside on the balcony first, and then look for an opportunity to go up."
Inside, Su Chen realized the vast area of Drunken Dream Garden. Not only did it have beautiful buildings like the back garden, but each floor also had a balcony that could accommodate over a hundred people for leisure and entertainment. At the moment, the balcony was filled with couples whispering things to each other, with waiters holding silver trays moving back and forth, providing drinks and snacks. Su Chen thought, today is truly an eye-opener; this Golden Wind Empire is indeed different from the Iron Stone City he used to live in.
Du Ziteng occasionally took drinks and snacks from the waiters, enjoying them immensely. Su Chen kept watching the diverse crowd on the balcony, always feeling a bit uneasy.
"Why do I feel like these people are all waiting for something? Look at those people, they don't have any women with them."
Su Chen suddenly said.
Du Ziteng replied casually, "That's because Drunken Dream Garden also offers venue services. Coming here doesn't necessarily mean having to do those things. You can sit alone having drinks or, thanks to the location, enjoy the beautiful scenery of Nadas City." Su Chen understood and looked out, seeing the whole of Nadas City at a glance: the bustling crowds, colorful lights, blended into a dazzling and lively spectacle. Moreover, the balcony is clean and elegant, without any congestion or noise. Picking a good spot to sit peacefully, sipping red wine while enjoying the Nadas City view is truly a pleasure.
Yet, as he calmed down, he suddenly felt a burning gaze fixed on him. He quickly turned around to find a short-haired man dressed in a black robe, sipping red wine and eyeing him. The gaze seemed contemplative but also seemed to question something.
Su Chen's heart skipped a beat, thinking, could this person know him? Why does his gaze seem somewhat familiar?
