Chapter 204: You’re Deranged (Nice Job) [Second Update]

“Ye Meijing” asked again, “How does one cultivate it?”

Fairy Fengya replied, “Character originates from the mind; by restraining its source, one can achieve a tranquil heart and few desires.”

Although they were clearly discussing character traits, “Ye Meijing” couldn’t help but feel that Fairy Fengya was also talking about wrestling, especially with her repeated reminders not to indulge excessively.

“Well, thank you, Master!”

“Ye Meijing” answered through gritted teeth, fearing that her further explanations would only compound the misunderstanding. Fairy Fengya nodded subconsciously, her gaze fixed on the stage, where a man dressed as a Taoist priest was facing off against a nun.

Even though the woman had delicate features, her lack of hair made her devoid of any beauty in “Ye Meijing’s” eyes. She glanced at Fairy Fengya out the corner of her eye, imagining what Fairy Fengya would look like with a shaven head.

She couldn’t suppress a laugh.

Nevertheless, Fairy Fengya would never ask “Ye Meijing” why she was laughing. She just kept her eyes fixed on the stage and continued, “This woman has good aptitude.”

“Well, she’s made it to the top three; of course she’s good.”

“Ye Meijing” instinctively replied, her gaze also shifting to the nun. Despite appearing feeble, her techniques were extremely dominant, making it hard to believe that such a petite body could possess such immense strength.

However, her explosiveness also became her weakness. The Taoist priest facing her dodged agilely, and although his cultivation wasn’t as strong as the nun’s, he repeatedly avoided crises through his quick reflexes.

The nun, on the other hand, refused to be outdone. She immediately took a pill to replenish her stamina, unable to unleash the same fierce attacks as before but still striking at critical points.

“Priest, if you’ve got guts, don’t run!”

“You little nun, if you’ve got guts, don’t chase after me!”

The two continued to chase each other on the stage. Seeing the Taoist priest’s plight and the nun’s aggressive stance, the audience burst into laughter, gradually diluting their earlier fear of the Demon Lord’s Pursuing Flowers blood seal.

“Ye Meijing” found the Taoist priest intriguing and focused her attention on him, only to see a white light surrounding him. Although she now understood that golden auras represented the chosen ones and black auras signified unfortunate individuals, she knew little about other types of auras.

Her gaze then swept over the nun, and she noticed a faint black aura swirling around her, a sign of impending doom.

Perhaps due to the immense mental strain caused by just learning this special ability, “Ye Meijing” couldn’t maintain her focus continuously.

Therefore, her gaze didn’t linger on the stage for long. She continued scanning her surroundings and saw a variety of colored auras, each vibrant and colorful. Interestingly, she even spotted a green aura.

Looking closely, the person with the green aura turned out to be the Sect Master of the Azure Wings Sect. Remembering the Sect Master’s private meeting with the Garden Master of the Beast Taming Garden yesterday, “Ye Meijing” couldn’t help but take a closer look.

Upon further observation, she noticed that the Sect Master’s Dao companion had a red aura tinged with green, and she seemed absent-minded, seemingly flirting with the Overlord of God King Domain.

With such a complex web of connections, “Ye Meijing” suddenly found her own special ability quite intriguing. She made an effort to look towards Long Qingyue, who was sitting on the high platform.

Upon observation, Long Qingyue’s aura had also taken shape, manifesting as a blood-red lion, exuding an awe-inspiring, intimidating aura; perhaps due to Long Qingyue’s numerous killings, her aura appeared so terrifying.

“Ye Meijing” thought about how she and Long Qingyue were both villains, but comparing between villains would lead to nothing but frustration. She sighed inwardly, then felt Fairy Fengya’s gaze on her, which also quickly shifted to Long Qingyue.

“Do you like her?” Fairy Fengya asked again, assuming that “Ye Meijing” sighed because she couldn’t get what she wanted.

“Who doesn’t?”

“Ye Meijing” replied, trying hard to maintain her cheeky nature.

“I don’t like her, her killing intent is too dense,” Fairy Fengya immediately responded, cutting off any praise “Ye Meijing” had prepared for Long Qingyue. The topic was effortlessly brought to an end.

At this moment, “Ye Meijing” would have preferred if Fairy Fengya hadn’t asked. Now that she had, it made the atmosphere awkward.

“If you like her, I can help you,” Fairy Fengya added, seeming to realize she had prematurely ended the conversation.

“Ye Meijing” curiously pressed on, “Master, how do you plan to help?”

Fairy Fengya replied, “She invited me for a chat.”

“Ye Meijing” was quite surprised to hear this, wondering when Fairy Fengya had established contact with Long Qingyue. But considering Long Qingyue’s methods, it seemed only natural.

Fairy Fengya’s name was well-known throughout the land, and as a fellow transmigrator like herself, Long Qingyue would undoubtedly be interested in her.

Thinking about when Long Qingyue would discover Fairy Fengya’s true nature, “Ye Meijing” felt a bit gleeful for some reason, almost wishing she could bring them together right now.

However, realizing the importance of the Immortal Sect Grand Tournament, she suppressed her excitement and grabbed Fairy Fengya’s hand, saying eagerly, “Master, whenever you guys meet, you must take me with you!”

“Ye Meijing” raised her voice, but Fairy Fengya remained silent, simply pulling her hand away from “Ye Meijing’s” grip, her expression unreadable.

“Ye Meijing” didn’t realize that her words had actually irritated Fairy Fengya slightly, and she continued, unaware, “Master, she’s ranked third on the Unparalleled Beauties List; meeting her could keep me bragging for centuries!”

Upon hearing this, Fairy Fengya began to doubt whether the Sect Master’s previous claim, of her being ranked first on the Unparalleled Beauties List, was a lie. She fell into silence, despite Great-Grandma’s constant reminders.

But Fairy Fengya felt as though she couldn’t voice her thoughts, as if she were experiencing the worst kind of emotional turmoil because of this person in front of her……

Fortunately, the next match quickly arrived, and this time, Fairy Fengya didn’t aim for a quick victory. Instead, she leisurely tormented her opponent.

Everyone present could see that “Ye Wenxin” was behaving excessively, but they assumed it was due to exhaustion from her earlier battle with Long Qing’er.

Little did they know, this “Ye Wenxin”/Fairy Fengya was actually venting her anger.

Zhu Ling: Mistress, you’re getting emotional!

Zhu Ling: Mistress, you’re going too far!

Unfortunately, Great-Grandmother’s words couldn’t reach Fairy Fengya. She continued to toy with her opponent using her Sword Qi.

One slash, then another…

Each strike was precise, causing no serious harm, but everyone could see how “Ye Wenxin” was behaving sadistically towards the member of God King Domain.
