Inside the room, Hong Yuye sat on the chair. Her eyes trembled slightly as she awoke from her sleep.

She slowly opened her eyes.

She sensed an invisible aura dispersing around her.

Her gaze paused on the teapot and pastries on the table.

She touched them gently and found that the tea inside was still a little warm.

Hong Yuye slowly stood up. Creak!

The door opened automatically.

Her steps were light, yet they resounded through the empty corridor.

Occasionally, people would appear, but they seemed unable to perceive her presence.

A short while later, the commotion outside caught her attention.

She saw Smiling San Sheng standing in front of two people in black robes. He looked wild, fearless, and ready for a challenge.

Hong Yuye approached him quietly. She was observing everything that was happening.

She wanted to confirm if he was really wearing the identity of another person or if this was how he always wanted to be.

“Yeah!” said someone in the crowd. “How good is your lady?”

The voice was elusive as if they didn’t want to be recognized.

“How is she, you ask?” said Jiang Hao from the center of the crowd.

“Yes. How would you describe the unforgettable and haunting lady you came here with?” asked another person.

Hong Yuye looked toward the center. At this moment, Jiang Hao was fanning himself and seemed unaffected by anything around him.

“In the southern region, she is a peerless beauty, who is incomparable to anybody else,” he said slowly.

“The entire southern region? How can you be sure she’s the only one like that in the entire southern region?” someone asked.

“You say that because you haven’t seen her smile,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

“What about her smile?” Huo Zheng asked.

Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao in the crowd. She stood still and showed no emotion.

No one knew what she was thinking.

Jiang Hao stood in the midst of the crowd. He met everyone’s gaze.

He looked wild and free. A bit arrogant with madness in his eyes.

“If that is true, why did you target this woman, then? Is she the only one who could compare to your lady? Have you become infatuated with this woman, or do you get infatuated with every woman you see? Are there other beauties in the other three regions apart from the southern one?” Huo Zheng asked.

This time, he was fully prepared. He was determined not to get slapped again.

However, the moment he finished speaking, he felt a chill behind him.

A blade pierced through his body and broke through his defenses. It shattered his magical treasure.

The power of this blade was strange.

“Do it,” he roared.

In an instant, Jiang Hao sensed a powerful force that was at the peak of Soul Ascension Realm. It was at the brink of entering the Return to Void Realm. These people had decent strength.

Jiang Hao’s lips curled into a smile. He used the Reappearance of the Hidden Spirit.

He swung his blade and used the third form of the Heavenly Blade, Meteor.

A burst of light flashed like a myriad of stars.

A powerful force erupted and forced the people around to retreat.

Then, the intense light landed in front of Huo Zheng and the others. There was a white figure in the white light.

The fan unfolded and revealed four words: “Unrivaled in the World.” With a wave of the fan, Huo Zheng and his group were sent flying into the deep sea.

This person was so ruthless!

People were frightened. It seemed this man wasn’t even afraid of offending the Heavenly King.

Jiang Hao turned and looked at Huo Zheng and the others. His brow twitched.

He hadn’t intended to throw them into the sea. After all, he hadn’t taken their storage treasures yet.

Someone was secretly making a move. Someone was trying to eliminate this group of people by using him.

Jiang Hao did not see anyone. It seemed they had left.

He continued to stand in the corner and observe the two ordinary people.

No one knew why he wanted to keep an eye on them, but no one dared cause trouble because they were frightened.

Ran Hui felt grateful, but he dared not say anything.

He could only huddle with his wife in place.

Jiang Hao lowered his head. He was puzzled.

These two people seemed to be really in love.

It was unbelievable.

He had only come across two people with charming physiques till now.

One was Senior Sister Yun Ruo, and her appearance needed no explanation.

The other was the Charm Goddess.

But the woman in front of him was like a breath of fresh air.

In the evening, he walked to Hong Yuye’s room and found her drinking tea and eating pastries.

“Senior, you’re awake?”

Hong Yuye put down the teacup and turned to look at him. She smiled. “She is a peerless beauty, who is incomparable to anybody else?”

Jiang Hao was surprised. He then felt embarrassed.

He then lowered his head. “Senior, you know that poem too? I’m impressed.” Hong Yuye just smiled. “Is this also something you learned from your father?”

“I learned it from hearsay,” Jiang Hao said.

Hong Yuye didn’t say anything. She drank her tea.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Hao asked something that had been in his mind all this time. “Senior, can someone with a charm physique live a normal life like an ordinary person?”

“What do you think? Is it good or bad to be born with such a physique?” Hong Yuye asked instead.

“Physique itself isn’t inherently good or bad. It depends on the person,” Jiang Hao said.

Hong Yuye was surprised. “Then, why are you asking such a question?

“I just had this thought… I’m not sure if anyone can do it,” Jiang Hao said truthfully.

He knew that something that existed in nature wasn’t inherently good or bad. It depended on the person and how they chose to use the particular gift.

However, knowing this didn’t change the fact that he didn’t even know of one person who had defied convention.

“No.” Hong Yuye shook her head. “At least among those who have inherent charm physiques I know, none of them led an ordinary life. They’re either forced to change, or they willingly put themselves through it.”

“None?” Jiang Hao wasn’t surprised.

The two ordinary people were the same. They wanted peace, but the world wouldn’t give them that.

Unless they secluded themselves in a place with just the two of them, it was impossible to live a peaceful life.

The curse of having a charm physique was temptation. It tempted everyone around and made life difficult for those who had this gift.

For a day or two, it might be fine, but over time, others became obsessed with people like that.

Upon careful consideration, Jiang Hao felt that the Master of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion was not very lucky.

If this person was someone evil, Jiang Hao would have taken her to the sect and offered her to the Pavilion Master, but she was only an innocent ordinary person.

Whether he was Jiang Hao or Smiling San Sheng, he had his morals.

“Do you remember what you’ll face if you offend me?” Hong Yuye suddenly asked.

Jiang Hao was stunned. He wondered if she had mentioned it before.

“Have you forgotten?”

“No, Senior. Your every word and action is etched in my heart,” Jiang Hao said.

“I will never forget.” “Alright then. Answer me.” Jiang Hao was speechless..
