Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 416 He Is Quite Capable
"What? Laney, I am sorry but I didn't agree. If you don't show up, then my Geisha House is really going to be smashed by the ones who have been waiting for so long just to watch you perform,” Yasmin, boss of the Geisha House, said as she softly turned down what Laney had just proposed to her. Laney had a more pressing matter to deal with as of the moment. As the top performer of the Geisha House, she now had a number of fans who had paid to watch her performance.
"But I have already given my word to Mr. Bai that I'll perform for him solely. And with that, I have to keep my word. Please!" Laney pleaded tenderly once more.
"Oh, my Goddess! Now, how about this... I will treat Mr. Bai for you during your performance, and after that, you can entertain him! After all, the performance wouldn't consume much of your time. If you don't show up at all, then I really don't have the slightest idea on how to calm down so many of your fans who come to have a gaze at your lovely art!" Yasmin proposed meticulously, as she placed her hand on Laney's.
"Miss Laney, you don't have to make a special treatment for me. Please just follow Yasmin's proposal,” Rocky said instantly. He was certainly aware that Laney was the leading performer of the Geisha House. Many of the guests went there, just wanting to set their eyes on nothing but Laney. If she didn't turn up tonight, then he guessed that the raging guests would eventually shatter the Geisha House. If that happened, he just couldn't afford the expense of such a significant loss. "Thank you so much for your kind understanding.” Yasmin winked at Rocky, her face still looking gorgeous as a middle-aged woman. In fact, she was one of those who had such a timeless face that never aged. Then, she turned to Laney and said, "Well, I am going to treat Mr. Bai for you. You should put on some makeup first. Be ready for the performance that will begin soon!"
"Well, all right then,” Laney said while she unwillingly nodded as soon as she realized that Rocky didn't mind her performing for the guests first. Half pushed by Yasmin, she took her maid and moved backstage to prepare.
"Mr. Bai, Laney has been in our Geisha House for so long, and this is the first time that she didn't want to perform for her guests because of some man. It seems that you have great personal charisma!" Yasmin winked at Rocky as she envied his charm. And then she sized him up with a cheesed off look and said, "Mr. Bai, you look really handsome, but your dressing style is just so..." At that time, Rocky was wearing a worn military gown that had evidently turned white due to frequent wash. Beyond question, he looked like an abject tramp.
"Yasmin, I am sorry for my inappropriate dressing!" Rocky looked at his dressing, realizing that he looked like a farmer. Being in the periphery forest of the Myriad Beasts Ground for a while, he had not changed his clothes, not even once. Every single time he took a bath, he didn't take his clothes off. Hence, his military gown was almost completely washed white.
"Well, you are the distinguished guest that Laney will entertain tonight. But I must admit that your dressing style is literally not easy on the eye. If other guests set their eyes on your clothes, they will surely have a lot of tittle-tattle. Mr. Bai, in order not to mess up Laney's good motive to entertain you, I strongly suggest that you really need to change your clothes. So please, come along with me. Right this way!" Yasmin said instantly with a smile after she successfully convinced Rocky to come and keep up with her.
As a response, Rocky raised his eyebrows. Without any further thought, he trailed behind Yasmin and entered the front courtyard of the Geisha House from the side door.
As soon as he set his foot inside the front yard, he recognized that the entire yard was like a kingdom of females—young women giving half-suppressed laughs and teases as they entered and came out of rooms.
However, when the young women had a glimpse of Rocky and Yasmin, they had their reservations. The Geisha House didn't welcome any guest at that very moment. Thus, they couldn't help but be inquisitive about why, of all times, Yasmin would take a man to the front yard.
But when they saw Yasmin and Rocky heading towards the backyard, they could not help but wonder because they knew that the rooms there were only for Yasmin and Laney.
"This man must not be the Adonis that Yasmin has been keeping as a boy toy."
"I never really thought of Yasmin as a cradle snatcher..."
"Although he dressed like a wretched man and is clearly not from a rich family, I must say that this man is really handsome!"
"In that case, Yasmin's desire for men is not small and subtle at all!"
For a time, the girls in the entire front yard kept on talking to each other rather wildly and from time to time would burst out rolls of resounding chuckling.
And just like that, Rocky already had a nickname from the young girls of the Geisha House—Adonis. Meanwhile, in the backyard, Yasmin took Rocky to a room that was saturated by misty fogs.
"Here. This is the bathroom. You can take a bath in it. I will let my maid bring you a new batch of clothes later..." Yasmin said as she pushed him inside, closed the door, and left for other business that she needed to attend to.
Peering at the closed door behind him, Rocky shook his head and gave a wry smile. And since he was already there, it would be really good for him to take a bath. Then, he walked slowly into the bathroom and saw the warm pool covered with all sorts of petals that floated on it. On top of that, it was kind of huge and could accommodate at least three to four more people at the same time. Instantly, Rocky felt relaxed in the room that was filled with aromatherapy and fog.
He took his clothes off, and hopped into the warm pool with a resonating thump. Jumping as hard as he could, a lot of water came and splashed out of the fragrant pool.
"Wow, I can't believe how comfortable it is here..." Rocky exclaimed after his whole body was submerged in water. Closing his eyes, he felt the warm sensation crawled on his whole body. Soon, he was refreshed, as if his body had breathed new life into him.
As he was leaning his head against the pool wall, his hands lay on the edge of the pool. His expression changed as it became composed. He then closed his eyes as if he had fallen into the land of Nod. He had used to having a highly strung life after he was exiled to the army of the Crimson Dragon Group. Thus, he had little to no chance of taking a bath in such warm water. And right now, he was so good and comfortable.
At the same time, a curvaceous figure suddenly appeared in another room in the backyard. It revealed itself in the candlelight just behind the folding screen.
And in an instant, a woman in white, with her face concealed by a white towel, showed up in front of the screen. Getting down on one knee, she asked the figure behind the screen respectfully, “Your Grace, may I ask about your request this time?"
"Just help me test the real strength of some guy named Rocky Bai. Try your best to find out how strong he is. I was well aware that he was at the ninth grade of the Earthly Stage before. I can see that he has already made a lot of improvement now!" the gentle voice behind the screen lightly responded.
"So, can I attack him with all my strength?" inquired the woman in white.
"Of course. Otherwise, how can you ascertain his actual power? You just need to keep him alive." Although the delicate figure behind the screen looked weak and soft, her voice was rather horrifying.
"Your Grace, I understand.” The white woman bowed her head and then went away to accomplish her task.
In the twinkling of an eye, it was already nightfall. The Geisha House became brightly lit, and numerous guests poured like rain into the house. During that time, an exquisite purple figure flashed on the eaves of the Geisha House's backyard, and then just vanished out of thin air. Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Rocky was snatching forty winks and looked like he was enjoying himself.
Then, with a squeak sound, the door of the bathroom was shoved open, and a white figure fluttered into the room silently.
But when Rocky heard the sound from the door, he thought that it could just be Yasmin's maid who came to give him new clothes. Thinking that it was not a big deal, he did not open his eyes to see what was going on. Yet, he, in no time, felt a cold, abrupt and murderous atmosphere. In an instant, he became cognizant—it was not the maid, and his eyes snapped open.
At that very moment, in the misty fog, the woman in white who flew into the bathroom shone brightly due to the spiritual light around her. Rocky then found out that she was exuding the power at the Heavenly Stage. Without a word, the woman flipped her jade-like hand and threw a few punches towards Rocky in the pool. As quick as lightning, she had infused her best power in her blows.
Puff, puff, puff...
Suddenly, the water in the pool was splashing violently, like a monstrous stone had been thrown into it. The splashing water looked so scintillating and bright, with petals flying along with the water. Although the whole scene looked appealing, Rocky only felt the hidden murderous atmosphere. "Did I punch him?" the woman in white spoke to no one in a hushed tone.
"Well, almost,” a bleak voice responded. Then, a figure emerged from the water along with the voice.
"Hmmm! Indeed, you are quite capable,” the woman spoke at once with her elegant, murderous eyes flashing a touch of amazement. Obviously, she didn't expect that Rocky could safely escape her sneak attacks.
Now she could make the safe conclusion that Rocky's strength was definitely not only at the ninth grade of the Earthly Stage.
