Xiao Wu was still standing beside Yin Hao, clinging to his arm and asking repeatedly, "What's a brothel?" "What does a brothel do?" This made Yin Hao quite embarrassed.
Seeing Dai Mubai approach, Xiao Wu stopped talking.
"Um... Hao... I want to..."
Dai Mubai didn't know how to begin. What should he say? He wanted to go to a brothel but had no money?
Borrowing money for a brothel—even with Dai Mubai's thick skin, this was still somewhat awkward.
Seemingly noticing Dai Mubai's predicament, Yin Hao patted his shoulder and said,
"Didn't I tell you? We're brothers, just ask!"
Dai Mubai looked at Yin Hao with gratitude and spoke without hesitation,
"I want to borrow some money, not too much, just one gold soul coin..."
Brothels only housed ordinary people, no soul masters, so even for a woman of superior beauty, one gold soul coin was enough.
As for Ma Hongjun... he usually only asked for one silver soul coin; his taste was so extreme that Dai Mubai felt nauseous just thinking about it.
Yin Hao frowned after hearing this, which surprised Dai Mubai. Could it be… one gold soul coin was too much? Surely not? Hadn't he won quite a bit before?
But before he could ask, Yin Hao spoke up.
"Aren't you looking down on your brother? Borrowing from a brother? And for just one gold soul coin?"
He then took out a small, bulging bag from his ring, containing about a dozen gold soul coins, and tossed it to Dai Mubai.
"This isn't much money, just take it. Consider it a gift from your brother, no need to pay it back…"
"Ah Hao…"
Dai Mubai took the bag, looking at Yin Hao with slight shock. What does it mean to be a brother? This is what a brother is!
He then nodded solemnly.
"Thanks, brother!"
He turned and left.
At the same time, an electronic voice sounded in Yin Hao's mind.
[Congratulations, host, you have traded 17 Gold Soul Coins for Dai Mubai's Soul Power level 1.5. Do you wish to claim it?]
"Not for now."
After so many years, Yin Hao finally understood what determined how much he received from such a trade.
It wasn't that the more valuable the item you gave, the more you would receive; it was all about the other person's emotional fluctuations.
This also explained why he had received so little from trading with Tang San over the years—that old fox was too cunning, outwardly grateful but inwardly feeling nothing.
Without the conflict between Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai, there was naturally no conflict between Dai Mubai and Ning Rongrong.
"I have something to attend to, so I'll leave first. You guys go back to the academy..."
Yin Hao said after Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun left.
Hearing Yin Hao's words, Ning Rongrong looked at him in shock.
"You're going to...that kind of place too?" As
soon as Ning Rongrong spoke, Zhu Zhuqing and Tang San also turned to look at her, only Xiao Wu was still curious about what a brothel was.
"What kind of place is that! I have some business to attend to!"
Ning Rongrong nodded quickly, but her face still clearly said, "I don't believe you."
Yin Hao was somewhat helpless and didn't explain further, turning to leave.
It was Zhu Zhuqing who spoke up at this moment.
"I believe you..."
Yin Hao turned back slightly in surprise, then smiled and nodded at her before leaving.
...
The location of the Spirit Hall in Soto City was also in the city center, making it easy to find.
Yin Hao arrived at the entrance of the Spirit Hall in no time.
A guard in a black robe stopped Yin Hao.
"Halt! This is the territory of the Spirit Hall. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter!"
Back in Notting City, the two guards at the gate were just ordinary people, but Yin Hao could clearly sense the fluctuations of soul power within this guard.
Without wasting words, Yin Hao took out the Holy Son Token that Bibi Dong had given him from his ring.
"I am the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, and I have important business to attend to!"
He had long heard that His Holiness the Pope had ordered the establishment of a Holy Son more than half a year ago, but the information about the Holy Son had not been announced until now. He did not expect to see him appear before him today.
The guard glanced at the Holy Son Token placed in front of him, had no suspicion, and hurriedly bowed.
"Greetings, Your Highness, Holy Son, please..."
Yin Hao nodded, then stepped into the Spirit Hall.
As a sub-branch of the Martial Soul Hall, a level higher than the branch hall, it surpasses the Martial Soul Hall in Notting City in both architectural style and scale.
Entering the vast sub-branch, the only sound was the faint hissing of a small decorative fountain; the entire palace was eerily quiet.
Just then, Yin Hao suddenly felt a cold wind from behind. Without hesitation, he quickly dodged to the side, then extended his right hand, summoning a one-meter-long Blue Silver Grass ice spike to block the attack from behind.
Seeing his attack miss, the attacker immediately withdrew his hand, using his left foot as a pivot point to launch a spinning kick.
However, Yin Hao's summoned Blue Silver Grass clamped down on her leg, and then an ice spike pierced towards the attacker's chest.
"Hey hey hey… Junior brother, you've gone too far! How can you treat your senior sister like this?"
Hu Liena cried out, looking at the ice spike only 0.01 centimeters away from her chest.
Yin Hao glared at her, waved his hand, and withdrew his Martial Soul.
Freed from the constraints of the Blue Silver Grass, Hu Liena's legs, which had been restrained, were successfully released.
"How are you, Junior Brother? Did you miss your Senior Sister?"
Hu Liena asked Yin Hao with a warm smile, as if she hadn't just attacked him.
Yin Hao gave her a disapproving look.
"Miss... how could I not? But you still tried to attack me right away, didn't you?"
Hu Liena ignored the latter part of his sentence and said with a smile.
"So, do you miss your Senior Sister more, or your teacher more?"
Yin Hao wasn't buying her act and looked at her with a half-smile.
"Of course... whoever gives me more, I'll miss them more... Teacher just gave me eight million gold soul coins as a gift. I wonder what gift Senior Sister has prepared for me? It can't be too much less than Teacher's, right?"
Hearing this, Hu Liena's smile froze on her face. Eight million gold soul coins! Hu Liena was shocked for a long time when she first heard this news! As a result, the other person waved their hand and gave it all to Yin Hao, leaving their eldest disciple without a single penny. They were green with envy!
However, Hu Liena quickly recovered, flicking her hair with a simple gesture that exuded allure.
She then leaned close to Yin Hao, placing her finger on his chest and slowly tracing its path.
"I couldn't possibly offer something like that from my teacher! Why don't you tell me, junior brother, what would be a good gift for you…"
she said, her gaze seductively fixed on Yin Hao.
This vixen! Yin Hao cursed inwardly.
