Chapter 217: Are you challenging me to a fight?
“Who is that woman? She’s already achieved fifteen consecutive victories, right?”
“No idea! I’ve never seen such a powerful martial artist.”
“I can’t help but feel like there’s something about that girl… like she’s radiating some sort of aura.”
“Unbeatable, totally unbeatable. Is there really no one who can teach her a lesson?”
“But you gotta admit, this woman is drop-dead gorgeous.”
“I think she might be on par with Uncle Qin.”
“Senior Brother Dugu has stepped up!”
“Let’s go check it out.”
“Yeah, let’s go!”
Voices buzzed around Xu Ming as people moved in one direction, clearly drawn by the commotion.
“Brother Xu, shall we join the crowd?” Yu Wen Xi asked.
Xu Ming nodded, “Sure, let’s see what’s going on.”
Xu Ming was quite curious too. What kind of female martial artist could cause such a stir?
On the small plain, Mo Zhu’er, her face veiled, was wandering around.
Naturally, Jiang Ruyan accompanied her.
Jiang Ruyan had been invited as the City Lord of Falling Star City to congratulate Heavenly Profound Gate.
Heavenly Profound Gate was unaware of Jiang Ruyan’s true identity as a member of the Black Lotus Sect.
However, not long ago, the Black Lotus Sect informed the Sect Leader of Heavenly Profound Gate about Jiang Ruyan’s real identity.
Thus, Jiang Ruyan received special treatment at Heavenly Profound Gate.
At least, the Sect Leader was doing everything possible to keep her identity hidden.
“Zhu’er, why don’t you step up and fight a few rounds?” Jiang Ruyan suggested.
In Jiang Ruyan’s view, if Zhu’er participated, she would surely stun everyone and easily achieve fifteen consecutive victories.
As for revealing Zhu’er’s identity? The chances were slim.
Even if someone became suspicious, the Sect Leader of Heavenly Profound Gate would step in to explain.
“Not interested.” Mo Zhu’er yawned, her eyes scanning the surroundings. “None of these people are worth my effort.”
Speechless, Jiang Ruyan said, “If you’re not participating in the competition, then why are you here? Just to spectate?”
Mo Zhu’er grinned mischievously, “Exactly, just spectating. Problem?”
“Alright, alright,” Jiang Ruyan shrugged. “If you’re here to spectate, I guess I’ll have to accompany you.”
Mo Zhu’er ignored Jiang Ruyan and continued strolling around.
As she wandered, Mo Zhu’er stopped abruptly, watching a battle within a magic array.
Inside the array, a female martial artist clad in combat attire sent a cultivator flying with just one punch.
The woman stood tall, pride gleaming in her eyes, her domineering gaze making others instinctively take a step back.
“Who is this woman?”
“No clue, but she’s already defeated over a dozen opponents.”
“You won’t believe this, but a Dragon Gate Realm cultivator couldn’t even withstand three punches from her!”
“Speaking of which, she’s incredibly beautiful.”
“Isn’t she prettier than Junior Sister He?”
“Maybe only Uncle Qin could match her beauty.”
“She must be ranked on the Red Beauty List.”
“A martial artist on the Red Beauty List? Could she possibly be Princess Wu Yanhan from the Wu Kingdom?”
“Holy cow, now that you mention it, it does sound like her!”
“Is this person the princess from the Wu Kingdom? The one whose marriage was annulled?”
“Don’t guess, it’s her. The elder princess from the Wu Kingdom just arrived at Heavenly Profound Gate today. I even saw the Wu Kingdom’s envoy.”
“Xu Ming is truly an idiot for not realizing his good fortune! A woman with such status, looks, and figure! And he thought about breaking the engagement?!”
“Why wouldn’t he? Maybe the princess is too fierce. If she can send Golden Core Realm cultivators flying, how could you possibly handle marrying her?”
“That’s nothing! I’d let the princess trample all over me!”
“Agreed! Even if she’s a tiger, such a beautiful tiger, I’d gladly be eaten!”
“…”
Around Mo Zhu’er, voices of discussion rang out continuously.
Jiang Ruyan felt nauseated by these men, they were acting like pathetic dogs. “Pathetic dogs.”
She found the term she just created fitting and apt.
Meanwhile, beside Jiang Ruyan, Mo Zhu’er was intently observing the woman on the stage.
Mo Zhu’er’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as she inwardly scoffed, “Wu Yanhan, so this is Wu Yanhan. She doesn’t look bad, her figure is decent, but martial artists are always as hard as rocks. For men, that’s fine, no problem. But for women… hah, which man would actually like that?”
“Zhu’er, what’s wrong? You seem to have some issues with this princess from the Wu Kingdom?” Jiang Ruyan noticed Mo Zhu’er’s expression and curiously asked, sensing some drama.
“It’s nothing. I’m just thinking, would any man really like a martial artist whose body is as hard as stone? Probably destined to remain unmarried,” Mo Zhu’er smiled faintly.
Jiang Ruyan shook her head, waving her finger, “No, no, no, Zhu’er, you misunderstand. Martial artists aren’t made of stone. Besides, let me tell you…”
Jiang Ruyan leaned closer to Mo Zhu’er’s ear and whispered softly, “Female martial artists have firmer, more elastic thighs. Their legs are absolutely mesmerizing, and even down there…”
Pointing towards two distant peaks forming a narrow strip of sky, Jiang Ruyan subtly hinted at something.
Mo Zhu’er immediately understood Jiang Ruyan’s implication and looked at her as if she were a pervert.
“So now you understand, right?” Jiang Ruyan ignored Mo Zhu’er’s disdainful gaze. “Martial artist women are far more enchanting than ordinary women. They’re like wild horses— who doesn’t love taming a wild horse? If you can fully tame a wild horse, the sense of conquest and achievement… tsk tsk tsk.”
Listening to Jiang Ruyan praising Wu Yanhan, Mo Zhu’er couldn’t help but feel irritated, “Looks like you know a lot about women.”
“Of course!” Jiang Ruyan proudly placed her hands on her hips. “Otherwise, what would I do? Study those dirty smelly men? Girls are fragrant; boys are foul.”
“By the way,” Jiang Ruyan curiously eyed Mo Zhu’er, “Zhu’er, tell me, what exactly is your beef with Wu Yanhan?”
“There’s no beef, I just find her unpleasant to look at.”
Before Jiang Ruyan could react, Mo Zhu’er leaped into the magic array and stood before Wu Yanhan.
“Are you challenging me to a fight?” Wu Yanhan tilted her head, looking at Mo Zhu’er.
Mo Zhu’er smirked, “Let’s test each other.”
