You've Fallen and Become a Woman
Xiao Ran pressed his Master's thigh back down, feeling that his Master was very sensitive in terms of physical sensations, but extremely insensitive to external stimuli.
The aura of the two people in front of me was clearly different from that of the dragon dance scammers I had seen before.
One of them even exuded a faint spiritual pressure, so he was definitely not a fraudster.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Master, there is no difference between Spirit Severing and a mortal; both are just a matter of kicking.
When a person becomes strong enough, they become insensitive to external things, and only a few interesting or dangerous things will attract their attention.
Even when dressed in a graceful and elegant classical gown, this strong mindset remains undiminished.
Xiao Ran glanced at the person coming towards him.
Like him and his Master, they were a young couple, a man and a woman, dressed in Temple Fair attire.
The woman stood out from the crowd like a crane among chickens, extremely dazzling.
She was extremely tall; even wearing flat cloth shoes, she was taller than Xiao Ran.
She had a large and full figure, and apart from her chest, she was a size larger than her Master in every other part of her body. She managed to make the loose Temple Fair dress look like a tight cheongsam, but instead of showing off her slender femininity, she displayed her strong leg muscles and broad shoulders.
Thanks to her outstanding height, the woman's figure did not appear bulky or cumbersome at all, but rather exuded a heroic aura like that of a female general.
Xiao Ran thought that if she were a little thinner, she could even walk the runway...
Judging from his features, he is not old, but his appearance is quite good. His face is a bit large, with a slightly cold and stern look, and his eyes have an air of domineering authority.
Even when dressed in Temple Fair attire, she still carried a long sword at her waist, exuding a heroic and graceful air of a woman clad in silver and riding a white horse with a long spear.
This is a powerful figure at the Spirit Severing Realm! He has the same Cultivation Level as his Master and mistress, but is much younger.
Like his Master, he also has a neutral temperament.
My Master is a dashing swordsman, a disheveled but highly skilled man.
This is a female general who commands thousands of troops.
The light he radiated in the crowd was even more dazzling than that of his Master! The man beside him was much shorter.
He's even shorter than his Master.
She was also rather thin, and the dress she wore was very loose, obscuring her hands and feet; it was clearly ill-fitting.
His facial features are typical of a delicate, boyish face; his fair complexion makes him appear weak, but upon closer inspection, he is quite handsome. However, he is short, and his eyes are calm yet melancholic, suggesting that he is the type who can be easily manipulated without resistance.
He's at most three hundred years old, Cultivation Level is only at the Foundation Establishment.
Logically speaking, his Foundation Establishment Cultivation Level shouldn't be bad.
However, his aura was extremely weak, even weaker than that of the uncle who sold Wife Cake; he looked no different from an ordinary person.
Xiao Ran was sizing up the young man, and the man was also sizing up Xiao Ran.
His smile was weak and innocent.
"Junior Brother Xiao is indeed as young as the legends say, and his Qi Refining Cultivation Level Refining."
Junior Brother Xiao... do you recognize me? Being called young by a timid-looking boy...
Xiao Ran didn't know what to say.
Lingzhou Yue then realized what was happening.
"Now that you mention it, the name Jade Lotus... I feel like I've heard it somewhere before."
Hua Lian.
Wu Yu.
Xiao Ran then remembered that these were two names, and two very famous names at that.
These are the two Dao Alliance representatives at this Heaven's Chosen Assembly!
Hua Lian, in particular, is extremely famous in the Cultivation World.
She is the only one among this year's Cultivation Level the Spirit Severing Realm. She is already at the Spirit Severing Soul Realm at the age of six or seven hundred, while her Master, who is the same age, is still only at the Nascent Soul.
Hua Lian has always been regarded by the Dao Alliance as Lingzhou Yue's successor and the face of the new generation of the Dao Alliance.
However, after graduating from the Academy, she did not join the Wraith Punishment Bureau Hunting Wraith, but instead joined the Xing Tian Pavilion, becoming a Law Enforcer in the main branch.
Hearing the name Hua Lian, Xiao Ran had imagined her to be some delicate fairy, but he never expected her to be so tall and heroic.
As for the other prodigy, Wu Yu, Xiao Ran knew very little about him, and there were few rumors about him in the martial arts world.
All I know is that he is still a student at the Academy.
People in the martial arts world speculate that he is a person with a very powerful background, or even a member of Four Great Families, otherwise it would be impossible for him to be selected Cultivation Level of the Dao Alliance with only Foundation Establishment Realm.
Looking at him today, his aura is extremely weak, as if he was brought out by Hua Lian to broaden his horizons. He has no air of a prodigy, not even that of a spoiled brat from a noble family.
Perhaps, he's a technical expert like Gao Shi Brother Gao.
Xiao Ran thought to himself.
It's funny.
The four women faced off, and both sides were combinations where the woman was stronger than the man.
It is evident that in the Cultivation World, women have finally stood up; women truly hold up half the sky.
"Master, they are the pride of this year's Dao Alliance, and both of them are representatives of the Dao Alliance Headquarters."
Xiao Ran introduced it to his Master.
The short man quickly bowed to the two men.
"Wu Yu from the Academy, along with Senior Sister Hua Lian from the Xing Tian Pavilion, greet Elder Lingzhou and Junior Brother Xiao."
He greeted the woman beside him on her behalf, so his back was bowed very low, as if it were a double bow.
The valiant woman simply nodded, remaining silent, her disdainful gaze fixed on Lingzhou Yue.
"Another one of the Dao Alliance's top talents this year?"
Lingzhou Yue pouted, not without complaint:
"Chaos City has hundreds of millions of people, but this year's Dao Alliance only has seven prodigies. How come we keep running into prodigies wherever we go?"
The short man named Wu Yu scratched his head sheepishly.
"Because Junior Brother Xiao Ran is now a star among the prodigies."
Lingzhou Yue nodded, seemingly understanding something, and said:
"Is it because your Cultivation Level is low and conspicuous?"
Wu Yu revealed a harmless smile.
"It's not quite like that, but with Junior Brother Xiao around, I feel much less pressure. I was originally planning to withdraw from the Dao Alliance's elite group because my Cultivation Level was too low, but seeing Junior Brother Xiao, a Qi Refining cultivator, have such courage, I suddenly felt energized. Anyway, with Senior Sister here to support me, I won't let the Dao Alliance lose face."
Good grief! Using me as a stepping stone?
Xiao Ran felt that this kid was making fun of him, but seeing his non-threatening demeanor, he had nothing to say.
The tall guy is carrying it?
Lingzhou Yue then looked up at the valiant woman.
Wow, that's so tall! My neck is tired from looking at it...
But looking at the woman's features, it seemed like I'd seen her somewhere before.
At the same time, the woman looked down at Lingzhou Yue with a complicated and puzzled expression.
"Your Spiritual Pressure is weak, you don't carry your sword, and you even keep your wine at a man's waist... Ling Zhou, have you degenerated into a woman?"
The woman's voice was androgynous, very loud, and exuded an air of authority and power.
Senior Sister Ling Zhou...
Suddenly, Lingzhou Yue Zhouyue remembered something, and her shimmering eyes suddenly shone as brightly as the moon.
"I remember now, you were the junior student at the Academy back then. You've grown so tall! Are you married yet?"
Hua Lian's eyes twitched slightly, her voice extremely cold.
"Who says a woman has to get married? You're the one who said that, but you've changed your mind."
Lingzhou Yue didn't care and remained excited.
"It's not that women have to get married, it's just that my apprentice just finished eating Wife Cake and you came. Don't you think it's fate?"
Is Wife Cake really given to wives?
Xiao Ran looked up.
Although Hua Lian has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a high nose bridge, and her features are quite pretty, even after changing into a Temple Fair dress, her figure still lacks any gracefulness. Her shoulders are as broad as armor, and her thick thighs give people a sense of power.
This car is too big; it's hard for a beginner to drive.
Xiao Ran thought to himself.
Hua Lian didn't even glance at Xiao Ran, and simply said:
"You should keep the man yourself. Although I didn't come here on purpose, since we've run into each other, I'd like to ask Senior Sister if she has any plans to hunt dragons in the near future."
Lingzhou Yue did not directly refuse.
"If the Dao Alliance offers high enough terms, we might be able to accept the mission."
Hua Lian said, "Since Senior Sister left for Zongzhi Mountain, the Dao Alliance has paid special attention to the cultivation of young people. The investment in talent is unlimited. I think Junior Brother Xiao has already experienced this."
Wu Yu weakly raised her right hand from the side.
"Wait a minute, Senior Sister, you call Elder Lingzhou Sister, but you also call her disciple Junior Brother Xiao. Doesn't that mess up the seniority?"
Hua Lian was unaware of her slip of the tongue and was extremely embarrassed when Wu Yu it out.
"Shut up!"
"Put me and my Master on the same level?" Xiao Ran understood.
You're not my wife, you're my wingman.
Lingzhou Yue scoffed:
"Catching a dragon is easy, anyone can do it. Why do you need a team? I take on apprentices to give them experience. Our team is only lacking wives, not burdens. You guys go home and practice more before going to hunt dragons."
Having said that, he grabbed the wine flask from Xiao Ran's waist, tilted his head back to drink, and walked straight ahead.
Hua Lian's eyes twitched slightly. If there weren't so many people around, she would have already taken action.
Xiao Ran spread his hands, bowed politely to the two of them, and then quickly followed his Master.
Only Hua Lian Wu Yu standing on the lakeside, her posture fluctuating with the lake breeze, neither too high nor too low.
"Senior sister, we've been rejected again. It's all because my Cultivation Level is too low and people look down on me. Sigh, the Dao Alliance shouldn't have chosen me as a prodigy. If I lead the way, when will the younger generation of the Dao Alliance ever be able to stand up?"
Wu Yu wore a mournful expression, his voice low and slightly mocking.
"You're here again."
Hua Lian didn't care at all; after being rejected by Lingzhou Yue, her expression actually brightened up a little.
"Senior sister hasn't changed at all..."
Wu Yu clasped his fists together, his face glowing faintly.
"But speaking of which, Elder Lingzhou is truly beautiful and handsome. It makes me nostalgic for the last Heaven's Chosen Assembly. Without Elder Lingzhou, the pride of our main region really can't do it..."
"You little brat—"
Hua Lian's eyes twitched slightly, and she stretched out her large hand, suddenly grabbing Wu Yu's head.
Just then, Wu Yu's eyes flickered, and he pointed ahead.
"Senior sister, look, Elder Lingzhou and the others seem to be in trouble."
Hua Lian looked up and saw that Lingzhou Yue seemed to be having another conflict with a stall owner...
As expected of Senior Sister Ling Zhou, wherever she goes, conflict follows! Conflict is a minor matter. Hua Lian looked down at her right palm hanging in the air, then stared at Wu Yu's innocent and harmless eyes, and asked in confusion, "Why is there always an accident before you get beaten up?"
Wu Yu scratched his head and smiled, his face as gentle as jade, his voice clear and pure.
"The weak are often blessed with good fortune, which is why I'm unwilling to advance in rank."
