Lu Shiyun, dressed in clean, crisp white pants and a top, was naturally sweet and vibrant. Hearing Xiong Kun's boastful remarks, her clear eyes widened instantly, then curved into crescents as she smiled, her rosy lips slightly upturned with a hint of playfulness.
Xiong Kun's eyes were fixed on her. He was burly and strong, yet he specifically preferred elegant, youthful, and lively maidens in white, rather than powerful female figures among the anomalies.
"Someday, I'll take you to meet King Chu the Demon," Xiong Kun declared. "Then you'll believe me. Although he's very famous outside, he's just a junior in front of me!"
Xiong Kun's bragging got out of hand; he couldn't stop himself. He mainly found the woman in white so captivating, every frown and smile so enchanting, that she completely charmed him, and his boasts grew bolder.
Hu Sheng and the others felt uneasy. What if this reached King Chu the Demon's ears? But fortunately, that demon king probably wouldn't come to an event like this.
"Braggart!"
Xia Qianyu walked over, pulling Jiang Luoshen along, and stood a short distance away, pouting. She knew Chu Feng almost completely, as many things had happened between them.
Xiong Kun immediately retorted, turning to look with a surprised expression, as a very pure-looking young woman had arrived.
"Sister, I'm not lying," Xiong Kun said. "If you don't believe me, you can come with me to meet King Chu the Demon another day." At the same time, he found the woman somewhat familiar.
In fact, they had met once before.
Of course, that time he was extremely unlucky; he and a group of anomalies were simultaneously suppressed by Chu Feng, collapsing to the ground like praying mantises.
Because he was suppressed, he could hardly lift his head to get a good look, so he had only glimpsed Xia Qianyu briefly, and now he didn't recognize her at all.
Especially since Xia Qianyu was wearing blue cosmetic contact lenses today, her eyes were unusually large and emitted a sapphire-like glow, which was quite strange. Xiong Kun didn't recognize her at all.
Xia Qianyu was quite innocent at the moment; she didn't associate them with anomalies at all, and never suspected that anomalies might be present at a matchmaking event like this.
"Sure, I'll go with you another day," Xia Qianyu said with a bright smile. She thought it would be very interesting to call King Chu the Demon out another day and make him go on a date with these people.
"Great, it's settled then!" Xiong Kun burst into laughter, and strode over from his spot, intending to exchange contact information with Xia Qianyu for future communication.
Beside her, Jiang Luoshen's hair stood on end. Her best friend hadn't recognized Xiong Kun, but she was different; she instantly noticed something amiss, quickly realizing these were several anomalies wearing masks.
Not only did she possess a stunning beauty, but her mind was also extremely meticulous, always sharp, with a photographic memory. At that moment, Goddess Jiang felt a headache coming on and was very uneasy.
She turned her head away and changed her posture, practically burying her head in the ground like an ostrich, deliberately making herself less elegant and more awkward.
As for her face, it was naturally impossible for her to look towards Xiong Kun again.
"This is truly terrible luck!" Jiang Luoshen muttered to herself. If these anomalies recognized her and started spreading rumors, it would be absolutely awful.
Jiang Luoshen looked for her aunt, only to find she had long since disappeared.
Then, she spotted an acquaintance and felt even more unfortunate. She knew Lu Shiyun; it wasn't their first meeting. They had even talked during the battle with the White Snake in Mount Taihang.
"Let's go!" she whispered to Xia Qianyu, feeling more and more that she couldn't stay here.
Fortunately, there was still some distance between them and the group of anomalies and Lu Shiyun. Only Xiong Kun had approached them; the others might not have noticed her yet.
Soon, Hu Sheng also walked over, his light golden hair flowing, his slender eyes sparkling. He elegantly bowed to Xia Qianyu in a Western style, and complimented her, "Miss, you are truly beautiful tonight, outshining even the moon in the sky."
"Really?" Xia Qianyu immediately brightened.
"You look a bit familiar," Hu Sheng said, pausing slightly as he got closer. That day, he had also been suppressed and collapsed to the ground, unable to lift his head, so he still didn't immediately recognize her as the woman he'd met once before.
Jiang Luoshen was extremely nervous and wanted to leave, because she knew Hu Sheng was much smarter than Xiong Kun and would likely recognize her.
She regretted coming here now. How could she just wander around and run into a group of acquaintances? This was truly too unlucky; she definitely didn't want to be tomorrow's headline.
"Two beautiful ladies, please come this way; I have some friends I'd like to introduce you to," Hu Sheng said charmingly, inviting Xia Qianyu and Jiang Luoshen to join them.
"Sounds good!" Xia Qianyu happily agreed, because she still wanted to go and listen to them brag. She found these "liars" very amusing.
"No, let's just go," Jiang Luoshen whispered, pinching Xia Qianyu.
"Stop messing around!" Xia Qianyu laughed, swatting her hand away and pulling her forward.
Jiang Luoshen was stunned. Who was messing around?! This was no joke; if they were exposed like this, it would be disastrous. She decided to use her anomalous abilities to take Xia Qianyu away.
However, a pair of bright eyes fixed on her. Lu Shiyun looked over, first startled, then a brilliant, cheerful smile spread across her lips. She quickly walked over and hugged Jiang Luoshen's arm, "inviting" her with extreme enthusiasm.
Jiang Luoshen pinched Lu Shiyun's slender waist and said, "Let go! I'll give you a dragon bone bead later!"
"What are you talking about? I don't understand!" Lu Shiyun replied, her eyes smiling.
"Two, no more, really. I only managed to get a few from Kunlun by asking someone to pay a huge price," Jiang Luoshen whispered, and pinched her soft waist again.
Lu Shiyun glanced at her with wide eyes, showing no politeness, and pinched Jiang Luoshen's slender waist, which could be clasped in a single hand. She rolled her eyes and whispered, "Unless it's an entire dragon bone bracelet!"
"No way!" Jiang Luoshen refused.
"I don't care!" Lu Shiyun extorted.
Jiang Luoshen retorted, "Little White Tiger, don't think I can't handle you. If you keep messing around, I'll invite a group of reporters later and tell them you like women. You know I have extensive media resources."
"Marry the big-eyed, innocent girl next to you to my brother!" Lu Shiyun countered.
"No way! Marriage and love are free! If you keep messing around, tomorrow everyone in the city will know you have brother, father, and woman complexes!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
"Yes, I am talking nonsense!"
What was going on? Chu Feng continued to play dead, as the two girls engaged in a silent battle, extorting each other, communicating through mental waves. But as a King-level expert, he could perceive everything.
"Miss, you look a bit familiar," Hu Sheng said, suspicion growing in him as he looked at Jiang Luoshen. Even though she was turned away and not looking at him, she was still noticed.
Because this male fox was always very clever, and he sensed something unusual.
"Hey, don't tell me, she really does look familiar. She looks a lot like my junior's woman!" Xiong Kun said bluntly and casually.
"Who's your junior?" Lu Shiyun asked with a smile so sweet it almost made Xiong Kun dizzy. He immediately blurted out, "Chu Feng!"
Jiang Luoshen's eyes shot out brilliant beams of light, like sharp swords, as she glared at Lu Shiyun.
Xia Qianyu also spoke up at the right time, saying, "Don't talk nonsense. How could my good sister have anything to do with that unlucky King Chu the Demon!"
"I just said she looks like her. She has an eight-tenths resemblance to my junior's woman. That woman is named Jiang Luoshen... Hey, the more I look, the more similar she seems; it's almost a nine-tenths resemblance!"
Xiong Kun was too thick-skinned and hadn't realized the situation yet. He was still surprised, saying, "She really does look like her!"
This might be a racial trait; the Black Bear lineage was simply that unrefined. Also, he didn't believe that the esteemed national goddess Jiang Luoshen would come to a matchmaking event here.
Beside him, Hu Sheng was sweating cold. By now, he was 100% certain that this woman was indeed Jiang Luoshen!
"If you say one more word, don't blame us for being impolite!" Xia Qianyu threatened.
"Hey, can't I even say anything? I'm telling you, my junior's girlfriend, Jiang Luoshen, is much more famous than you two, so don't get upset!" Xiong Kun argued, oblivious to the danger.
"Haha..." Lu Shiyun couldn't stop laughing.
Jiang Luoshen's fair forehead was already covered in dark lines of exasperation. She didn't want to stay for another second and wanted to leave immediately.
However, Lu Shiyun was tightly holding onto her arm, refusing to let go, looking quite intimate.
Not far away, Chu Feng sat with his back to them, feeling like he had seen a ghost. Running into a simpleminded Black Bear Spirit, and then Jiang Luoshen and the Little White Tiger... This was too chaotic!
"Don't talk nonsense!" Hu Sheng stopped Xiong Kun. He was truly terrified, because he was genuinely worried that Jiang Luoshen would go complain to Chu Feng.
Because, in his impression, this national goddess indeed had an ambiguous relationship with Chu Feng.
"Why?" Xiong Kun asked, puzzled.
"Goddess Jiang has no relation to Chu Feng. Even if they did, they'd only be... friends!" Hu Sheng said, wiping cold sweat and carefully choosing his words, not wanting to offend Jiang Luoshen.
Xiong Kun argued, "That's not right, Old Hu, you're the one who speculated that Jiang Luoshen and King Chu the Demon had an ambiguous relationship, definitely a romantic one!"
At this moment, Jiang Luoshen's eyes were practically spitting fire. This was being said right to her face; who knew what these guys said behind her back.
As for Hu Sheng, his face had turned green. He grabbed Xiong Kun and said, "Shut up, quick!"
"Why?!" Xiong Kun retorted defiantly.
"That's Jiang Luoshen!" Hu Sheng whispered to him.
"Huh?!" Xiong Kun was dumbfounded.
At this moment, Jiang Luoshen's aura turned murderous. "I'm warning you all," she said, "no one is allowed to talk about what happened here today. Furthermore, I reiterate, I have no relationship with Chu Feng. If you dare to gossip about me behind my back again, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Hu Sheng quickly nodded, indicating he understood.
Xiong Kun was good at adapting to circumstances, and immediately changed his tune, speaking righteously. He said, "That's right, Goddess Jiang is high and mighty. How could that brat Chu Feng be worthy of her? He has absolutely nothing to do with you!"
Chu Feng was still playing dead from a distance, but in his mind, he had already beaten Xiong Kun senseless 180 times!
Lu Shiyun's smile was sickeningly sweet, and her large eyes kept darting glances towards Chu Feng in the corner.
Xiong Kun felt embarrassed and said to Lu Shiyun, "Everything just now was a misunderstanding. However, that kid Chu Feng really is my junior!" He was still stubborn even now.
"What do you think of what Xiong Kun said?" Lu Shiyun asked Jiang Luoshen.
At this moment, Jiang Luoshen keenly sensed that something was wrong. "What do you want now?!" she said, highly vigilant.
"Hey, stop playing dead!" Lu Shiyun said, taking light steps, and walked straight over to tap Chu Feng's shoulder, whose back was to the crowd.
"This guy also looks a bit familiar," Xiong Kun said.
Hu Sheng, whose face had just returned to normal, immediately turned green again. He roared in his heart: "How could it be him? This is eight lifetimes of bad luck!"
