Male Lead: Seduce me quickly! Leng Yue: No, no, no, I can't do it!
Male Lead: I allow you to seduce me! Leng Yue: ... This generation's male lead is so hard to handle, I want to go ho...
Tianxuan City was bustling with activity, packed with people everywhere.
Upon arriving in Tianxuan City, Liu Fang said she had business to attend to and then parted ways with Leng Yue and the others. Leng Yue and Qian Chen then wandered aimlessly around the city. They had arrived a little early and heard that the Holy Maiden was still making preparations.
"What exactly are we here for?" Leng Yue pulled Qian Chen to a small shop to sit down. It was too crowded outside, and there was nowhere to talk.
After the two sat down, they gave the waiter some spirit stones, ordered a pot of tea, and then sat down to look outside. The crowds outside were shoulder to shoulder, looking even more intense than the Spring Festival travel rush.
"To verify some things." Qian Chen was in no hurry. He poured a cup of tea for Leng Yue, then poured one for himself, and quietly drank it.
Compared to the noise outside, Qianchen was completely at ease, as if she lived in a completely different world. Lengyue, as if in a fit of pique, picked up her tea and drank it all in one gulp.
Then, resting his chin on his hand, he looked outside listlessly. Suddenly, he thought of what was in his dantian and was about to tell Qianchen when he heard the outside suddenly become quiet.
"The Holy Maiden has arrived! The Holy Maiden has arrived!"
"Make way, I want to see too."
"Shh, don't make a sound, or the saintess's chief guard will arrest you."
……………………………………
The once noisy street became much quieter in an instant. Even the sounds that could be heard were just whispers.
"Aren't you going out to see?" Everyone in the shop couldn't contain their excitement and rushed out, even the owner, trying to find a good spot to see the Holy Maiden. But Leng Yue and Qian Chen remained still. Seeing that there were still customers, the waiter couldn't go out and could only urge them on. "This is a grand celebration that only happens once every ten years in Tianxuan City. Only then will the Holy Maiden come. If you miss it, you'll have to wait another ten years."
"Go if you want, it's no trouble. We don't need to serve you here, don't worry." Qianchen continued to quietly drink her tea.
Leng Yue walked to the door and looked outside. When the waiter saw them like this, he said, "Then please bear with us, sir." With that, he clasped his hands in a fist and quickly ran away.
The waiter didn't care about being scolded by the boss. Anyway, there were two people in the shop now, and the boss wasn't there. He didn't want to miss this rare event!
The Holy Maiden of Tianxuan City is indeed extraordinary. While others cannot even fly with a broom, flying sword, or magic carpet, this Holy Maiden can ride in a luxurious carriage pulled by two white unicorns.
"Aren't you going to come and see? It's so cool." Leng Yue clicked her tongue as she looked at the luxurious flying car in the sky. "Look at this, you can tell it's the female lead's high-class style. Look at us, we're nothing."
Absolutely! They can only slide around on the ground with their flying swords. Meanwhile, these people can ride in such luxurious unicorn carriages, openly flying through the air. The difference is just too obvious, isn't it?
"No wonder they don't let us fly in the sky, they're afraid of being overshadowed!" Leng Yue said indignantly. "It seems that this so-called saintess isn't necessarily that holy. At the very least, she's not down-to-earth at all."
"Come over and calm down," Qianchen smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Why are you acting like a child? If you want to ride in a carriage like this, I'll get one for you sometime when I have time."
"I don't want to be so flashy!" Leng Yue pouted, stormed to the table, and plopped down. "I'm a low-key person, unlike this so-called saintess who flaunts herself everywhere!"
"Yes, yes, yes, keep a low profile, have some tea to calm down." Qianchen said, pouring Lengyue another cup of tea.
"Oh right, where's Liu Fang?" Leng Yue only remembered Liu Fang after finishing another cup.
"Wait a little longer," Qian Chen said calmly.
Leng Yue looked at Qian Chen suspiciously, "Ever since you entered Tianxuan City, you've been acting strangely. Tell me, do you know something?"
"Yueyue, you'll find out soon enough." Qianchen shook his head. "The time is not right. As the Buddha said, it cannot be spoken of."
“…” Leng Yue rolled her eyes, pretending to be mysterious, “If you’re going to keep quiet, fine, I’ll wait.”
Leng Yue lay to one side, twirling the cup in her hand, glancing at Qian Chen, still wanting to ask again. Before she could speak, Qian Chen said, "Coming."
"What's here?" Leng Yue jumped up. "What's here?" she asked Qian Chen while craning her neck to look outside.
"You audacious witch! How dare you attempt to assassinate the Holy Maiden! Guards, seize her!" A loud shout made Leng Yue's ears ache.
"This is... Liu Fang?" Leng Yue looked at Qian Chen. "Is this what she meant by finding the Holy Maiden?"
"Otherwise what? A witch and a saintess, how do you think she'll find them?" Qian Chen said expressionlessly.
"She left a long time ago. I thought she was sparring with the Holy Maiden somewhere," Leng Yue said, but her eyes were fixed on Qian Chen. "What agreement did you and Liu Fang reach? It feels like you're hiding something from me."
"What kind of agreement could there be?" Qianchen shook his head helplessly. "We just want to see what she will choose."
"What? How do I choose?" Leng Yue asked Qian Chen absentmindedly, but her ears were perked up, listening to the clanging and banging outside, her heart itching with curiosity.
"Go ahead and see if you want, I didn't say you couldn't." Qianchen put down his teacup and tapped the table lightly. Actually, he was also waiting for a chance.
Unaware of Qian Chen's thoughts, Leng Yue vanished in a flash after hearing Qian Chen say it was okay. Leng Yue even used invisibility magic, weaving through the crowd like the wind to find herself an excellent vantage point.
In mid-air, Liu Fang, riding a broom, leaped and darted about like a shooting star. However, despite her attacks with her black magic wand, she couldn't get close to the saintess's carriage.
Someone in the crowd said, "This witch is really overestimating herself. Doesn't she know that the Holy Maiden's carriage is protected by a defensive array enhanced by a Grandmaster?"
Another person said, "That's right. Not to mention a Grandmaster's defensive formation, even the Chief Guard wouldn't be able to handle it. Just you wait, this witch will be captured alive soon!"
"When will the Holy Maiden appear?" another person asked anxiously, looking up. "I've long heard that the Holy Maiden is exceptionally beautiful. If I could see her face this time, I would die without regrets!"
"That's right, that's exactly right." And then a chorus of agreement followed.
Leng Yue rolled her eyes again. These males really all had the same goal. They were never able to resist beautiful women.
"Holy Maiden, come out here! If you have the guts, don't be a coward!" Seeing that there was no progress, Liu Fang could only resort to verbal attacks.
Leng Yue's face darkened. This line seemed to be appearing quite frequently lately. She didn't know why, but whether it was a villain falling for the villain or a minor henchman or cannon fodder, they all seemed to like saying this line!
"Who do you think you are, daring to insult the Holy Maiden? Guards, seize him!" The captain of the guards, who had remained silent until now, also raised his spear and joined the battle.
Liu Fang was already struggling to cope, and this made things even more difficult for her. Leng Yue glanced at her, then turned and slipped back inside.
