In the land of Qingzhou, that red building by the river turned to ashes overnight, but fortunately, there were no casualties among the guests inside. The madam of the Red Building vanished as well, taking with her the courtesans as if they had never existed. Some curious guests recalled that on the evening of the fire, they had seen a strikingly beautiful man in red attire, who seemed otherworldly, suspecting him to be a Spirit Demon who had ventured out from the depths of the mountains to frolic in the mortal world, then, fearing discovery, he razed the Red Building to the ground, leaving no trace behind.
The rumors made that fire even more mysterious and enticing.
