Mo Dao Zu Shi: Astray

The Worst Luck, Part Six

"Pan-xiushi. I require your assistance."

Anxin approached Pan Wukun, a worried expression on her face. "We need to keep this discreet in my room. It is a very personal and private affair."

"I understand. Let's go."

Pan Wukun sat in a chair across from Anxin. "So what is the matter, Lady Anxin?"

"Mmm~ You see..." Anxin leaned in close. Too close.

Anxin's fingers trailed over Pan Wukun's leg.

Pan Wukun inched her leg away and laughed nervously. "Uh - Lady Anxin. Wai-"

"Come now. Don't be shy.~" Anxin shoved Pan Wukun's face into her breasts.

"Mmph!"

Normally Pan Wukun wouldn't object to having her face smushed into a beautiful woman's breasts. But this was not the time or place! Wait...this was a brothel so...ok, right place, but definitely not the right time!

Pan Wukun pushed herself off of Anxin.

Anxin backed away, raising a sleeved arm in front of her. "Pan-xiushi, is this not to your liking?"

"You are very beautiful, yes. But please understand that I wish to save a romantic and sexual relationship for my special one." Pan Wukun turned away. "I'm sorry."

Once Pan Wukun was gone, Anxin snarled, "That Meng Shi! She's managed to seduce another cultivator!"

——————————————————

"So how does Meng Shi fare nowadays?" a client asked.

Anxin scoffed. "Not so well. Meng Shi is always showing off that she can read. She thinks she's above us just because of books. Like books did any good in feeding her.
She's so gullible that she didn't even realize she got scammed into buying fake cultivation booklets until Pan-xiushi pointed it out to her!
Her son, xiao-Meng has also been rejected by the LanlingJin sect.
So what exactly is she trying so hard to hold onto?
Such foolishness and arrogance.
You think only people from outside the brothel look down on her? No, the rest of my sisters here do too. Meng Shi's fame is no longer what it was, yet she still doesn't understand..."

"What do you think you're doing?"

Anxin turned around, only to be met with Sisi's hand slapping her face.

"Don't you have anything better to do than talk badly of Meng Shi all day?!"

"What the fuck is it any of your business what I say?!" Anxin lunged at Sisi.

They landed on the floor. They bit and scratched one another, pulling at each other's hair, cursing, and screaming insults.

The clients watched them fight in amusement.

"Sisi! Anxin! Stop!" The other prostitutes tried to pull Sisi and Anxin off of each other but to no avail.

"Get Pan-xiushi here!"

Once Pan Wukun was led to the scene, she pushed herself between Anxin and Sisi. "Both of you! Stop right now!"

She yanked Anxin and Sisi away from each other, making them stumble back.

The prostitutes kept a safe distance, watching on in surprise.

This was the first time Pan Wukun had to physically handle any of the prostitutes. Before this, she never raised a hand towards any of them, always acting kind and gentlemanly.

Pan Wukun glared sternly at the brothel's clients. "The brothel is closed."

"Hah? But the brothel isn't to be closed for another hour!"
