Chapter 388 (3): Traveling Around
Lu Tai returned to his residence which was filled with the silvery laughs of shapely young women. There wasn't a single speck of dust in the courtyard, and all of the paths were paved with bamboo boards that were sparkling clean thanks to his maidservants.
He walked past three maidservants who had escaped from their torturous lives thanks to him, and all of them greeted him, their master and benefactor, in a slightly strange manner.
They greeted Lu Tai using beautiful words of praise that he had told them to find and memorize from the books. The three young women were family members of officials, and they had been forced into the high-class brothel as a form of punishment for these officials. Because of their background, they were quite familiar with essays and poems. Now that there were so many books in the ancient residence for them to read, it wasn't difficult for them to find and memorize these beautiful words of praise.
One of them said that her young master's poems were like blooming lotuses, naturally pure and adorable.
Another beautiful maidservant praised her young master's demeanor, saying that he was as radiant and warm as the sun over the East Sea.
There was also a young woman who compared her young master's appearance to irises and orchards, saying that his beauty was such that it would illuminate the entire space.
Lu Tai laughed heartily upon hearing their praise.
Lu Tai took his boots off and continued to walk, eventually arriving before a simple but elegant arhat bed. He sat down and leaned back, and a beautiful maidservant wanted to walk over and attend to him. However, Lu Tai waved a hand and shooed her away.
He sniffed the wine and took a sip. Even though it now tasted much better than ordinary wine in the Lotus Flower Blessed Land, it was still far from being able to rival the immortal wine in the Majestic World.
Lu Tai casually tossed the pot of wine, which still had the wine insect lying on the bottom, toward a distant table. The pot landed firmly and didn't spill a single drop of wine.
Later in the day, accompanied by song and laughter in this residence, winds of change were already sweeping through the Lotus Flower Blessed Land. This was the case in the cultivation world, and also the case in the imperial courts and the battlefields.
