No one knew when it started.
But within the Jianghu of Lancang County City,
a rumor began to circulate in certain circles.
Enter the Joyful Forest, and find bliss like an Immortal.
Fair maidens add fragrance to your study, their smiles can topple cities.
The greatest beauties of the mortal world, all gathered in this forest.
Fueled by such rumors,
the "ambitious men" of the Jianghu flocked to it like moths to a flame.
One man would bring another, and he in turn would bring another, and in a short time, they had forged a den of indulgence renowned throughout high society, unmatched in all of Guangqing Prefecture.
However,
few people knew
that the Joyful Forest wanted more than just money.
Because those who did were already enjoying their eternal bliss.
...
The great sun sank in the west, and the Star River of night unfurled.
In Yulan Mountain, fifty li outside Lancang County City and forty li from Tan County.
It was the end of summer.
