Chapter 30: The Anxious Senior Sister Ziyuan

Chapter 30: The Anxious Senior Sister Ziyuan

Inside Wanbao Pavilion, the lights were bright.

Senior Sister Ziyuan sat before the vanity mirror, treasuring the ring on her hand immensely. She took it off, handed it to her maid, and instructed, "Give this ring to Master Yu, and have her refine it into a Storage Ring. I want to carry it with me at all times."

The maid whispered, "Young Miss, this is just a piece of Yuan stone with its Yuan power drained. Even Master Yu cannot refine much storage space out of it, not even one ten-thousandth of the one in your hand."

Senior Sister Ziyuan replied without caring, "I will store valuable items in this diamond ring, and the rest can be placed in the storage accessory."

She was at the Peak of the Heavenly Human Realm; how could she not see through that this diamond ring was just a discarded piece of Yuan stone compressed together?

Just as Qin Xuan said, Yuan stones would have their Yuan power drain away over time, becoming waste stones.

But this diamond ring was different; it was hard and eternal.

It represented her friendship with Qin Xuan—forever exclusive, never to spoil.

This was the most cherished gift she had received since growing up, so naturally, she had to treasure it doubly and keep it with her.

The maid dared not say more and slipped away from the boudoir like a mouse, not daring to linger.

She feared being harmed by the Cursed Poison Body.

"The life I thought I had integrated into as an ordinary person was, from beginning to end, just my own wishful thinking. Others still view me like a tiger, dreading the Cursed Poison Body, terrified of being affected."

Senior Sister Ziyuan watched the maid's retreating back, bitterness rippling through her beautiful eyes.

Recalling the intimacy with Qin Xuan today, she rarely revealed a warm, heartfelt smile, "Only he treats me like an ordinary person, only he does not fear me, is willing to be close to me, and even gave me a gift."

A woman adorns herself for the one who appreciates her.

Senior Sister Ziyuan faced the vanity mirror, occasionally adjusting her curved eyelashes, touching her straight, delicate nose, and then tracing her luscious, red lips, chiding, "Lecher, you thought I was an ugly monster. I am not ugly at all; I am not a bit inferior to the beauties you have seen."

In the reflection, Senior Sister Ziyuan had starry eyes, pearly teeth, a high, straight nose, and a face like a peach blossom.

Her exquisite features seemed to gather the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, perfectly balanced on her palm-sized face, stunningly beautiful.

She stood up and examined her figure in the mirror.

Confirming that her chest was not flat but had a significant curve, she realized that only Mu Qingxue of Wan Jian Peak could surpass her.

She secretly and boldly thought, "I really want to see what kind of expression you will have next time we meet and you see my true appearance. Will you still deliberately emphasize that the diamond ring you gave me represents friendship!"

Senior Sister Ziyuan knew her own beauty; in the past, when she appeared in unfamiliar places, those fawning over her were as numerous as carp crossing a river.

It was just that, hindered by the danger of the Cursed Poison Body, those greedy and lustful people were terrified of being affected and held back.

There were also many young noble masters who wanted to cling to the Saint Physician Lineage, acting brave, appearing suave on the surface, and trying to please her, only to be harmed by the Cursed Poison Body later, never to be seen again, while secretly spreading vicious words about her.

She loathed those two-faced aristocratic Young Masters; they were hypocritical and vicious at heart.

How could they compare to Qin Xuan?

He dared to openly state his purpose for approaching her—he just wanted to see her beauty.

He was a bit lecherous, yes, but he dared to think and act; that was the conduct of a real man!

"But, just as Qin Xuan said himself, different people have different tastes. What if Qin Xuan doesn't like my type?"

"What if, in his eyes, I really don't compare to that passing young girl?"

Senior Sister Ziyuan collapsed in front of the vanity mirror, feeling lost, gently stroking her delicate cheeks.

She had never had such worries before.

But after spending time with Qin Xuan, especially knowing that Qin Xuan was a lecher who coveted beauty, she became increasingly anxious about her appearance.

She worried she wasn't good-looking enough.

She was also afraid that Qin Xuan's taste was unique and he wouldn't like her type.

She looked forward to meeting Qin Xuan again, yet was afraid to expose her appearance in front of him.

She was terrified—terrified that Qin Xuan would show disappointment after seeing her face.

She was even more afraid that Qin Xuan would not be as close to her as he was today.

"If only I were better looking."

Senior Sister Ziyuan rested her chin on her hand, looking at herself in the mirror, inexplicably anxious and lost, her mood very low.

Outside the room, the maid returned and reported, "Young Miss, Ye Feng is asking to see you."

Ye Feng?

Hearing this name, Senior Sister Ziyuan's brows knitted instantly, and she said coldly, "I will not see him."

She guessed Ye Feng's intention; it was nothing more than having met Qin Xuan at the Yaoshan Auction and wanting to ask her to take action to kill Qin Xuan.

A day ago, out of consideration for her father's promise, she had reluctantly agreed to take action.

Now, she had already established a friendship with Qin Xuan.

To kill her current—and most likely, only—best friend for a promise?

That was impossible!

The maid nodded obediently, "I will go chase him away."

"Wait." Senior Sister Ziyuan called the maid back, her brows slightly furrowed, and instructed with a grave expression, "Tell them on my behalf: from now on, the Saint Physician Lineage, including Wanzhen Peak and Danding Peak of the Yaochi Sacred Land, I do not allow anyone to make things difficult for Qin Xuan. Whoever dares to hurt him, I, Senior Sister Ziyuan, will spare no cost to grind their bones into dust!"

【The Daughter of Luck, Senior Sister Ziyuan, has had her favorability soar. The host is rewarded with the Perfection-level comprehension of the Tianhuang True Solution.】

【The Daughter of Luck, Senior Sister Ziyuan, has experienced a stirring of the heart. The host is rewarded with +20,000 Villain Points.】

【The Daughter of Luck, Senior Sister Ziyuan, has turned against the Child of Luck. The host is rewarded with +3 Divine Ability Pills.】

Qin Xuan, who was on his way, suddenly stopped as the System's reward notification sounded.

The Saint Grade Cultivation Technique, Tianhuang True Solution, at Perfection level, caused grand, imposing scenes to appear in his mind one after another.

A person holding the heavenly desolation halberd, fighting five Saint Kings alone.

Blood rain filled the sky, high Battle Intent, waves crashing against the heavens.

There was also a blurry figure holding a halberd, standing alone. Before him, there were no enemies; his eyes saw only the vast heavens, as if he were fighting against Heaven itself.

"The one fighting the Saint Kings should be the Halberd Saint Ming Yue of the Mingyue Dynasty. Who is the figure behind? It looks even more impressive."

Qin Xuan achieved Perfection in the Tianhuang True Solution. The combat memories that appeared in his mind now gave him a sense of sudden enlightenment.

He had a perfect understanding of the heavenly desolation halberd.

His halberd techniques improved by leaps and bounds.

"A great battle is imminent. Regardless of that, I should make a Breakthrough first."

Qin Xuan swallowed the three unexpectedly obtained Divine Ability Pills.

As the Medicinal Pill entered his abdomen, the medicinal power instantly dissolved.

The Yuan power around his body began to surge.

The Hongmeng Bone on his chest, manifested from the Chaos Hongmeng Body, was shining brightly.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

With a great shock of Yuan power, Qin Xuan's Realm rose three levels in a row.

From the first level of the Supernatural Realm, he broke through to the fourth level of the Supernatural Realm.

Breaking through three levels in succession!

"Where did you get so many good things? Three Divine Ability Pills, breaking through to the fourth level of the Supernatural Realm without any resistance, and your Foundation isn't even slightly unstable. Even an Alchemist at the Saint King Realm couldn't refine pills of this grade!"

Inside the ancient prison-suppressing tower, Leng Li was already somewhat numb.

First the top-tier Sacred Artifact, the ancient prison-suppressing tower, then the Nine Revolutions Saint Soul Technique that even she marveled at, and now, Breakthrough pills without side effects.

Qin Xuan's background was something even she couldn't match.

Qin Xuan rolled his eyes, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

He now discovered that when going against the Child of Luck, the System actually gives rewards!

It was either a Treasure Artifact with hidden secrets or the ability to sway a Daughter of Luck with a monstrous background.

If it weren't for Ye Feng acting as the adhesive in the middle,

He could scour the entire continent with a lantern and still not meet so many Daughters of Luck in such a short time, let alone receive such generous rewards!

Tsk tsk, one Senior Sister Ziyuan could bring such generous rewards, so if he killed Ye Feng, wouldn't he be rich?

Qin Xuan's anticipation grew even stronger. He ordered Leng Li inside the ancient prison-suppressing tower, "Make me a mask of Ye Feng. Later, cooperate with me a bit. I want to put on a good show in front of that bitch Qing Ning..."

Upon hearing Qin Xuan's plan, Leng Li was overjoyed and proactively suggested, "Remove the sage-burial nails and the Sacred Sword from my body. If I appear in my original form, I can make Qing Ning believe it more easily."

Qin Xuan's expression didn't change, but he sneered inwardly.

Why was she so eager to manipulate a body that was already nearly crippled?

Wasn't it obvious that she had ulterior motives?

He didn't expose her, just nodded with a smile, "As long as you cooperate, everything is negotiable!"
