"W-What should we do, Branch Leader. If it’s the Butterfly Pavilion, then..."

"I know. You don’t need to tell me." The branch leader of Chengdu Beggar Sect shouted loudly. "And what are you doing?"

"Sorry?"

"I said, what are you doing! Chase him! Listen to their negotiation or something, idiot! We can’t let Hao Sect hire that group of monsters!" Stay tuned to NovelBin.Côm

"Y-Yes!"

Leaving the leader in a frenzy, the beggar immediately followed Leo and Chiaki.

Earlier this day, Jessica and Jack went out to the Butterfly Pavilion to socialize. She was wearing a pretty luxurious hanbok. A black robe with golden embroidery over a bright red inner garment.

Unlike what people think, she wasn’t sent here to relax and enjoy her life but to do her job as a socializer to get information about potential clients and recent news in Central Plains.

Jack followed her everywhere wearing black sunglasses and a business suit. He looked like a professional bodyguard.

When they entered the famous brothel, they were greeted by two beautiful women wearing gisaeng costumes that showed a lot of skin. Their eyes wandered up and down Jessica’s body while giving her flirty smiles which she returned with a gentle smile of her own.

After greeting Jessica, they led him to a private room where she could enjoy performances and drinks. The secretary followed them quietly.

The reason why she entered this place was because she heard a rumor from a merchant she socialized with earlier. That the owner of this place was looking for help.

’The owner’s name is... Nabi, I believe? It literally means butterfly in Korean.’

This place was one of the few brothels where men and women could freely mingle.

Based on the information she heard, that owner was also a martial artist and part of the Unorthodox Faction as well. More specifically Hao Sect.

’The merchant is also a member of that Sect. The token he hid on his body is an undeniable proof. Just like us announcing our affiliation with symbols and our suits, they also brought a token to show where they were affiliated to keep pests away.’

Of course, not all members were unorthodox martial artists. Some were just simple merchants, workers, and craftsmen who worked for the Sect.

Although they were relatively weak, they still had some tricks up their sleeves. Namely information gathering.

’Based on the novel Leader gave me, Hao Sect is one of two biggest information sects in this world. The other one is the Beggar Sect, a group of informants who gather information from around the world, making them a useful resource for everyone. A formidable rival for Hao Sect.’

Because they dealt with information, their combat powers would be extremely low compared to others. However, they had an endless stream of customers. Not only martial artists who wanted information about their enemy or friends, but they also had the support from normal people who were interested in gossip and rumors.

"Please wait here for a while. The performer will arrive soon."

A servant placed a plate of fruits in front of Jessica before leaving the room after saying her last words.

Jessica’s eyes landed on the door. There were three women outside talking and laughing loudly without a care in the world. Her sensitive ears picked up everything. Though the man behind her was able to hear everything better.

"Is there anything you noticed, Jack?"

"Sis... You know that I am not fit for this job, right? Anya would be better than me." Jack replied while nervously scratching his head, "But well... Just as I noticed when we partied here a week ago, there are lots of hidden rooms in this building. I counted at least 20 hidden rooms using the echolocation function."

"20 rooms?" Jessica blinked her eyes in surprise before shaking her head in dismay. "They are more thorough than I thought."

In some places in Murim, it wasn’t uncommon to hide spies in brothels just to gain information. This was especially true for the Hao Sect which collected information in their name.

"What about this room?"

"There is none. No spy, no listener. It’s a bit weird, to be honest. Even if they clean their area of bugs, the soundproofing material would be too thin to block my senses."

"So that means someone wants to talk with us privately. Most likely the owner of this place."

The merchant was quick at informing the owner. While deliberately moving slowly, Jessica didn’t expect they would be ready to receive them like this. If so, it meant that they would make contact with her soon.

Jessica sat down and waited patiently for someone to come to her while enjoying the snacks on the table and sipping wine from a porcelain cup. Jack looked at her with an envious gaze, but he shook his head quickly to erase that thought.

’If I said I want to drink, who knows what she will do to me. It’s too scary to even imagine. Ah, Leader. Why did you put me with big sis Jessica? She’s too scary!’

Their roles and positions were very clear.

Just a minute later, a knock could be heard from the door. A beautiful woman with blue hair in a white dress entered the room.

When she saw Jessica sitting gracefully on her couch, the woman’s lips curved upward in an elegant smile as she greeted her politely without showing any sign of displeasure or discomfort at seeing her guest in the place where she was supposed to be safe.

"Greetings, esteemed guest. My name is Nabi, the owner of this Pavilion." She said while bowing deeply toward Jessica in greeting, "I shall be your entertainer for today. I hope you will enjoy your time here."

"Hello. You don’t need to act formally with me. Please feel free to relax." Jessica smiled back kindly while gesturing at Nabi to sit across from her. "I’ve heard of something interesting. That’s why I invited myself here. My name is Jessica, it’s my pleasure to meet the leader of Hao Sect."

"My~ What a pleasant surprise."
