As a well-known dandy within the imperial city, Sullivan Tran was naturally one of the regulars at the Heavenly Scent Pavilion.
Although he had been restricted from leaving his own mansion recently, news from the Heavenly Scent Pavilion reached his ears from time to time.
Among this news was when a new batch of courtesans arrived, each with their own specialties and prices.
And recently, the most enticing news for him was that a new courtesan had arrived at the Heavenly Scent Pavilion, named Leighton Shannon.
It was rumored that Leighton Shannon not only had breathtaking beauty and outstanding temperament but also excelled in various arts such as music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
Although she sold her skills, not her body, she was the most sought-after figure at the Heavenly Scent Pavilion recently.
When he came today, he initially requested Leighton Shannon, but was informed that she was out, so he had to give up.
But unexpectedly, she came to him voluntarily now.
It seemed that he, as the young lord of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, had some charm!
After regaining his composure, he straightened his clothes and looked towards the door, saying, “Miss Leighton Shannon, please come in!”
“Thank you, Mr Tran!”
After the woman finished speaking, she pushed the door open and entered, followed by a clothed man.
Naturally, the two of them were Billy and Shadow Ten.
Shadow Ten was using the alias Leighton Shannon at the Heavenly Scent Pavilion.
“Miss Leighton Shannon, please have a seat!” Sullivan Tran quickly spoke as Shadow Ten closed the door.
While speaking, his eyes kept scanning the other person, showing hints of fanaticism deep within.
Seeing is believing indeed, Leighton Shannon was truly a beauty!
He immediately made a decision in his mind that he must win this woman over!
“Thank you!” Shadow Ten nodded slightly.
“Miss Leighton Shannon, who is this?” Sullivan Tran then turned his gaze to Billy.
But before the words could even leave his mouth, his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground.
“Mr Tran, what’s wrong with you, you…” The two courtesans were stunned simultaneously.
Before they could finish their words, just like Sullivan Tran, they fainted to the ground.
With Billy’s current level of spiritual power, making several unprepared people faint was a piece of cake.
“Wait, while they’re unconscious, you and Shadow Twenty take them out of the Heavenly Scent Pavilion,” Billy instructed Shadow Ten.
“Got it!” Shadow Ten nodded in response.
Then, Billy swapped his and Sullivan Tran’s outer garments.
And he rearranged their faces, swapping their appearances as well.
Seeing Billy’s altered appearance, Shadow Ten couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that the current Billy had undergone a disguise.
He looked almost exactly like Sullivan Tran!
“Alright, go!” Then, Billy looked at Leighton Shannon and said.
“Okay!” Leighton Shannon nodded, then let down her hair and unbuttoned the top two buttons of her cheongsam, before hastily messing up her face.
Then, with a panicked expression, she opened the door and ran out.
Immediately after, a door not far away was forcefully pushed open.
“Outrageous, who is it?” A man’s angry voice came from inside.
Obviously, the man inside was Westin Ayala’s son, Chad.
At this moment, he was enjoying the service of two courtesans while sipping on wine.
Just as he was about to get to the main point, the door was kicked open by Leighton Shannon.
“Please… please, Master Chad, save me…” Leighton Shannon ran to Chad and knelt down directly, her tears flowing, evoking pity.
“Miss Leighton Shannon?” Chad recognized Leighton Shannon and was slightly stunned.
Half a month ago, when he sneaked out from home for some fun, he had already spent time with Leighton Shannon once, so he naturally recognized her.
Just that one time, he was deeply attracted by Leighton Shannon’s beauty and temperament.
During this period, he had been planning to make this woman his own!
He actually came today for Leighton Shannon, but she happened to be absent.
But he didn’t expect her to appear in this way now.
“What happened? Who did this to you?” Chad pushed aside the two courtesans next to him and hurried over to help Leighton Shannon up.
“Master Chad, please, for the sake of our previous encounter, ask Mr Tran to let me go…” Leighton Shannon choked out.
“Sullivan Tran?” Chad was slightly puzzled. “What exactly happened?”
“He… Mr Tran… he drank too much… and tried to force himself on me…” Leighton Shannon continued to sob.
“Damn, doesn’t he know you sell your skills, not your body?” Chad was furious.
He would not miss this chance to play the hero!
“He…” Leighton Shannon continued to cry.
Just then, Billy, who had transformed into Sullivan Tran, barged in holding a jug of wine, swaying as if drunk.
After entering the room, without saying a word, he walked towards Leighton Shannon.
“Sullivan Tran, this is my room, get out!” Chad shouted angrily.
Although Sullivan Tran’s father was the Prime Minister of the Crimson Flame Empire, Chad’s father was the commander of hundreds of thousands of imperial guards.
Moreover, in terms of personal strength, his father was far superior to Sullivan Tran’s.
So, he didn’t regard Sullivan Tran, the young lord of the Prime Minister’s mansion, highly.
“She… she is mine…” Billy said as he reached out to grab Leighton Shannon.
“You’re asking for death!” Chad roared and swung his hand, aiming a palm strike at Billy.
Although he felt something was off about Billy’s voice, he didn’t think too much in the current situation.
Billy raised his hand and countered with a burst of force.
The attacks collided, producing a muffled sound, and the resulting shock wave sent all the furniture in the room flying out like paper.
“Ah…” Leighton Shannon and the two courtesans were knocked to the ground by the shockwave, then quickly got up and ran towards the door in panic.
“Sullivan Tran, what madness has gotten into you? Watch how I deal with you today…” Chad didn’t expect Sullivan Tran, who had always been deferential in front of him, to dare to attack him, and he was burning with rage.
Before he could finish his words, Billy attacked again.
“You’re really seeking death!” Chad cursed angrily and launched another attack.
Then, the two began to fight fiercely.
To make the act more convincing, Billy naturally wouldn’t strike too hard immediately.
And he also needed to give Shadow Ten some time to deal with the three people in the room.
After a few more rounds of fighting, Billy saw that the timing was right.
Shortly after, they engaged in a fierce exchange of blows. Powerful waves of energy swept around, causing the door of the private room to burst open like paper, with several holes punched through the walls.
In no time, Chad took several punches, breaking several bones. However, in his rage, he wouldn’t beg for mercy, his expression contorted.
He had decided to kill Sullivan Tran.
Hearing the commotion, many onlookers began to gather around, though they kept a safe distance.
After exchanging blows for a few more rounds, Billy saw his opportunity. With his eyes narrowing slightly, he exerted sixty percent of his usual strength and sent a palm strike toward Chad.
