The Nights of the Jianghu Are Far Too Stimulating
Right after Soso slipped out of the bathhouse, Chaeryeong and Soyun entered the hot spring and naturally clung to my sides.
"Lady Yeonhwa, thank you for your hard work today."
"Indeed. It is all thanks to you that we made it this far safely."
The two women skillfully kept the conversation flowing. They prattled on about the journey to Kaifeng, urging me to visit the main residence of the Seomun Clan, and mentioning how delighted their young master would be.
Though their words sounded polite, their underlying motive to somehow hook me up with Seomun Jin was painfully obvious. I humored them with half-hearted nods while letting it slide, but then I caught them exchanging a knowing, loaded glance.
"Well, we shall take our leave first. Please get some rest, Sect Leader."
"Yes, rest well."
With those words, the two of them gracefully stood up and left, prompting me to snort.
They're definitely off to ride Seomun Jin's dick.
When I returned to our room, Soso had already kicked off her blanket, sprawled out, and was snoring with her mouth wide open.
"...Seriously, this kid."
A chuckle escaped my lips.
Truth be told, Soso and I hadn't actually known each other for very long.
But because she was so incredibly friendly and had a way of worming her way into people's hearts without any hesitation, I sometimes found myself mistakenly feeling like we were lifelong friends.
But hey, that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. Wasn't this exactly what the Jianghu was all about?
I looked down at Soso's sleeping face. She looked so innocent that it was hard to believe she was the same sly little thing who had been eyeing my breasts so hungrily in the hot spring earlier.
I briefly considered flicking her forehead but decided to lower my hand.
"Sleep tight, kiddo."
I muttered softly before slipping out of the room.
As I walked down the hallway toward the stairs, I happened to pass by Seomun Jin's room.
Slap! Squelch, creak!
"Ah! Haah! Y-Young Master...!"
"Ugh...! Grrrgh...!"

I paused. Just for a brief, fleeting second, I stopped in my tracks and listened.
"Haa... If only I could have a taste of Lady Yeonhwa like this..." Seomun Jin's low voice leaked through the door.
...This motherfucker.
"Mmm...! Once Lady Yeonhwa gets a taste of your thick rod, Young Master, she'll never be able to escape. To think she's missing out on something so delicious... *Slurp, sluck!*"
Soyun laughed languidly amidst the wet sounds of her sucking his dick, and Chaeryeong chimed in, catching her ragged breath.
"Women like her are always like that. They act all high and mighty on the outside, but once you spread their legs, they're filthier than anyone."
"Exactly... Who knows if she's secretly flicking her bean with her fingers every night?"
"Hehe, I bet she's incredibly depraved deep down."
Inside the room, the three of them panted as they snickered.
"Then before I taste Lady Yeonhwa, I suppose I should practice on your tight holes first."
"Ah! Young Master...! Ah, please, thrust it in already...!"
Thud! Bam! Bam! Squish! Slap!
The sound of his massive cock mercilessly plunging in and out of their wet pussies echoed through the room. Screams of ecstasy, the squelching friction of flesh, and their dirty talk about me blended into a sticky, chaotic symphony of debauchery.
I stared blankly at the door for a moment, then let out a hollow chuckle.
...Well, they aren't entirely wrong.
I did masturbate alone, and I was indeed incredibly horny deep down. After all, I had literally just been getting worked up over Soso in the hot spring.
But that's that, and this is this, you crazy bastards.
Hearing them casually use my name as a side dish for their dirty talk instantly cooled whatever lingering curiosity I had. Out of habit, I leaned in and peeked through a crack in the door.
Inside, Chaeryeong was being impaled by Seomun Jin's monstrous cock, while Soyun writhed beside them, lewdly licking her body as they engaged in a beastly, tangled threesome.
"Ah! Hah, Young Master...! It's too, too deep...!"
"Ugh! I bet Lady Yeonhwa's pussy is even tighter than this, isn't it? No, it'll definitely be way hotter and more mind-blowing!"
"Ah-hah! Ah, Young Master...! Please just focus on me right now, ahhh!"

Normally, a scene this intensely erotic would have had me lifting my skirt and shoving my fingers inside myself on the spot. But because my mood had been ruined, my lower half remained completely cold and unresponsive. Clicking my tongue, I turned away.
Yeah. The moment we pass through the city gates, we part ways. No exceptions.
I would drop Seomun Jin and his women off at the local branch of the Seomun Clan, and that would be the end of it. Getting any more involved with this horny, silver-spoon brat was bound to bring nothing but trouble.
As I stepped outside the inn, the cool night air brushed against my cheeks. I took a slow stroll around the premises. Being on the outskirts of Kaifeng, even at this late hour, the distant sound of carriages and occasional silhouettes of travelers could be seen along the main road.
As my cluttered mind began to clear, a different thought occurred to me.
Right. Tomorrow, I'll just go sightseeing around Kaifeng with Soso.
I'd dump Seomun Jin's group at their branch and have Soso act as my local guide. She had been rambling on about noodle shops and market alleys earlier, so she wouldn't complain if I dragged her around for a day. Thinking about this made my irritation melt away.
Just then, the darkness beyond the wall at the back of the inn flickered slightly.
Rustle.
Reflexively, I stopped in my tracks.
Someone was stealthily moving through the shadows behind the inn. A normal person would have dismissed it as the wind, but my heightened senses caught the faint presence with crystal clarity.
...What's that?
Staring toward the direction where the presence had vanished, the corners of my mouth slowly curled upward.
Perfect. I was getting bored anyway.
I silently slipped into the shadows of the wall, tailing the intruder.
The figure moved with incredibly agile footwork, rounding the back of the inn before veering away from the main road to hide in a dark, blind spot completely out of sight. Holding my breath, I pressed my back against the corner of the building and peeked around.
In that cramped, dimly lit corner, the figure scanned his surroundings once, then without a moment's hesitation, stripped off his outer robe.
W-What is he doing?
While I stood there frozen in sheer bewilderment, the half-naked man leaned one hand against the wall and naturally grabbed his crotch with the other. Then, slowly, he began to vigorously stroke himself up and down.
Stroke, stroke. Squish.
Is... is this crazy bastard seriously jerking off outdoors?!
My jaw dropped in utter disbelief. Inside, a perverted pretty boy was having a threesome while using my name as dirty talk, and when I stepped outside to cool my head, some random guy was shaking his dick under the moonlight.
...Has the Jianghu always been this crawling with sex-crazed lunatics?
Dumbfounded, I clenched my fists, ready to leap out and smack the back of this pervert's head.
"Haa... Ah..."
Just then, the clouds parted, and the moonlight illuminated his face. The moment I saw it, I froze mid-step, cursing violently in my head.
Wait, what the actual fuck?!
Sharp, sword-like eyebrows, a high, straight nose, and a jawline so perfectly chiseled it looked sculpted by a master artist. Even the beads of sweat glistening under the moonlight looked like a professional photoshoot. He possessed a breathtakingly, lethally gorgeous face. He was, without a doubt, the most handsome man I had ever seen since arriving in this world—a magnificent specimen who could easily be called the number one beauty of the Jianghu.
With... with a face like that, the best thing you can think to do is jerk off outside in the middle of the night?!
My heart shattered, and the deep-seated inferiority complex from my past life as a man erupted like a volcano.
If I had even a fraction of that face in my past life, women would have been lining up in trucks for me at clubs and on the streets, you wasteful, goddamn bastard!!
The handsome pervert, dragging his god-tier looks through the mud, was rapidly reaching his limit.
Squelch! Squish!
"Haaah...! Nnngh...!"
His toned waist arched tautly like a bow. But at the very peak of his climax—
"No... not yet. Not here."
He tightly gripped his throbbing shaft, forcing himself to straighten up and hold back the impending release. Panting heavily as he suppressed his orgasm, he hastily grabbed his discarded clothes and leaped back into the darkness.
Where is he going now?
He stopped behind a thin bamboo fence on the side of the inn. It was an incredibly exposed spot, where the bustling main road was visible just a few steps away.
Clop, clop.
"Today's haul was pretty disappointing."
"Tell me about it. Let's hurry up and get some shut-eye."
Coincidentally, a group of martial artists on night patrol and some merchant carriages were passing along the road. Staring at the passersby through the gaps in the fence, the man pulled his dick out again and began to furiously stroke it.
Squelch! Squelch! Squish!
"Haa... Haaah... Ah!"
Even though the footsteps of the guards and the clopping of horse hooves were right next to him, the proximity of others seemed to excite him even more. His eyes rolled back slightly as he pumped his shaft with wild abandon. Watching this gorgeous pervert panting, completely intoxicated by the thrill of public exposure, I clutched the back of my neck.
Holy shit, is this guy seriously doing a stealth-wank?!
To think I'd witness a real-life exhibitionist pervert addicted to extreme thrills—the kind of stuff I only ever saw on global news or internet forums in my past life—right here in the middle of the Jianghu. I leaned my forehead against the wall and let out a dry laugh.
...The nights in the Jianghu are dynamic in so many ways.
At first, I was just dumbfounded. But soon, a different emotion began to creep into my mind: curiosity.
Is... is doing that while risking your life really that thrilling?
Come to think of it, I was hardly one to talk. The sheer voyeuristic thrill I felt every time I peeked at others having sex—the heart-pounding tension of knowing I could get caught at any second—always made my body burn up with explosive arousal.
If a guy that handsome is jerking off like that... I wonder what it would feel like if I tried doing it outdoors too?
The moment that thought crossed my mind, the heat that had built up from Soso's teasing touch in the hot spring—which I hadn't been able to relieve—surged back with a vengeance. My blood rushed, and my heart hammered against my ribs.
With my reason and shame completely paralyzed, an even crazier, more extreme imagination sparked in my head.
What if... I hide behind him... and masturbate too?
People walking along the road, a gorgeous stranger shaking his dick right in front of me, and me, hiding in the shadows right beside him, chasing pleasure in the thrilling, razor-thin gap between safety and exposure.
...Haa, just imagining it is taking my breath away.
"Gulp."
I swallowed hard. Just the thought of it sent a hot, throbbing ache straight to my lower abdomen. Between my smooth thighs, a sudden gush of slick juices was already trickling down my skin.
The handsome pervert in front of me. Judging by his presence, he was a decent martial artist, but compared to my overwhelming cultivation, he was practically nothing.
There's no way he'll notice me.
That absolute confidence gave wings to the depravity swelling inside me.
Whoosh.
Gliding forward like a ghost, I slipped into the deepest darkness right behind his back. Then, slowly pulling up the hem of my skirt, my fingertips slid wetly along my already drenched inner thighs.
