Chapter 240 The Grand Stage of the Shura Field: Come If You Dare
"Wanwan".
Huali timely saved Tang Da'e's limited-time return.
Tang Wanwan almost fainted, but she quickly swallowed the word "head" back down.
After looking Huali up and down to make sure she wasn't injured, she deliberately found fault and said, "Did you lose a few strands of hair?"
Huali: "Huh?"
Having seized this opportunity, Big Goose glared at Little Six with hostility.
Having learned from the experience of the previous three cases, she was determined to strike first this time and let Xiao Liu know that she was not someone to be trifled with!
As Tang Wanwan rushed over, a glint flashed in Yan Xi's eyes.
Just then, Ao Bai was stretching and casually glanced over, and in that instant, it witnessed what it meant to make a person appear out of thin air!
Holy crap!
"Wanwan, let me introduce you. This is the mermaid bird I told you about, and this is Brother Shrimp."
The moment the two girls looked up at him, the indifference in Yan Xi's eyes receded like the tide, replaced by an almost crystal-clear clarity.
The taut lines between the young man's brows relaxed, transforming into a gentle innocence. The upturned corners of his lips were just right, exuding a natural purity.
She even adjusted the curvature of her shoulders, making her originally upright and slightly aloof posture appear more vulnerable and vulnerable, and more vulnerable to being protected.
Ao Bai was completely stunned! This kid is definitely the scariest of the five cards!!
Yan Xi nodded to Tang Wanwan with clear, bright eyes, "Fairy Tang, I've heard so much about you."
Tang Wanwan's unfriendly gaze faltered, and the 180-meter-long cleaver she had swung out froze in mid-air.
Huh? What's going on?
Is she really such a pure and innocent little white flower?
Meeting the innocent eyes of the other person, Tang Wanwan's arrogant aura vanished little by little.
You can't hit someone who's smiling, but this move puts her in a bit of a bind...
However... this just proves that Xiao Liu is a normal person!
Tang Wanwan lowered her guard by half, and with Yan Xi's deceptively charming face, she slowly revealed eight teeth.
"Hello, hello, Huali's friends are my friends. Hey little bird, I've already had someone clean up your and Shrimp's rooms, so you can stay here without worry."
Looking into Tang Wanwan's clear, bright eyes, Ao Bai couldn't bear it any longer and jumped on her. "Wanwan! You're surrendering already? You should at least give him a taste of his own medicine!"
Having successfully caught the change in the other person's eyes, Yan Xi's voice remained clear and gentle as he sighed softly, "Isn't this too much of a disturbance to the fairy?"
But he didn't say he wouldn't go. Instead, he magically produced a beautiful cloth bag and handed it to her, saying, "I heard from Huali that you are her best friend, so I specially picked out some small gifts for you at the bottom of the sea."
Tang Wanwan: ?! What? She even has a gift?!
The young lady's eyes lit up instantly!
She grabbed Ao Bai, glanced at Hua Li, and only after Hua Li nodded did she chuckle, thank her, and take the bag!
Tang Wanwan didn't even glance at the piles of spirit stones in the courtyard, but the coral fossils and various colorful seashells in the bag, imbued with the aura of the deep sea, instantly captured her girlish heart.
boom--
The remaining half of her guard vanished instantly, and the young lady launched a zero-frame attack, "Hey, no bothering you, make yourself at home. Compared to those things that only cause destruction, you're far superior."
Yan Xi: "??"
She packed up the bag and pulled Huali along, saying, "Let's go first, Shao Siming is still waiting for us."
Karin turned to look at Kotori, "Then let's meet at the door when it gets dark."
Yan Xi nodded and watched the two people enter the teleportation array.
Shrimp Bro, who saw through everything, said, "You're putting on an act again. Before, you were practically glued to Huali every day. Why did you let her go so easily this time? What are you trying to do?"
Yan Xi said coldly, "You're meddling too much."
Shrimp Bro choked for a moment, then quickly followed, saying, "Even if you don't tell me to, I have to. You still have to come with me to buy a little dress."
Yan Xi: "What skirt?"
"I can't just enter the city in my real form, I need to change my clothes."
"..." Yan Xi took a deep breath, "You...aren't you a man?"
"Can't boys wear skirts? Little Fish, you have such a narrow view."
Yan Xi: "...Stay away from me."

As the light from the teleportation array beneath her feet faded, Huali's vision gradually cleared.
She found herself standing at the edge of a wide, bluestone plaza, with the tall building standing in the center in front of her.
The main structure has three floors and is constructed entirely of warm, delicate, white jade, with flying eaves and brackets, and smooth lines.
The plaque at the top hangs high, with four large characters clearly visible.
—Yunshang Yinyu.
In front of it, on the more open bluestone square, there was a great deal of noise!
"Shao Siming is waiting for us up ahead."
The two looked in the direction of the surging crowd and saw that about a hundred feet in front of the main entrance of the building, the crowd had formed a huge circle with three layers inside and three layers outside.
At the center, there is a large platform.
Or rather than a platform, it's more like a giant open-air show.
"This is where we'll be making our appearance later. Everyone can vote here," Tang Wanwan explained as she walked. "The rest of the competition will also be held here."
"Completely transparent and open, there is no possibility of cheating."
Huali's gaze swept over the figures moving around her.
The male cultivators were either strikingly handsome with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, or charming and dashing with smiling eyes.
The female cultivators had beautiful hair and pretty faces, their eyes sparkling with every glance, and their robes and hair ornaments were lustrous and shimmering.
Among them, many slender arms were faintly visible under the thin gauze, and long legs swayed lightly with each step.
The surrounding cultivators all had open and honest gazes, showing no sign of intimacy.
"I'm not lying to you, am I? Aren't there lots of handsome young men?"
Huali nodded vigorously.
"Wanwan, Huali, over here!!" Huali looked in the direction of the voice and saw Shao Siming waving at them.
"Shao Siming!" Tang Wanwan walked over with Huali. "Thank you so much this time!"
Hua Li looked at Shao Siming with sparkling eyes and nodded with a smile.
This was the first time she had seen Tingyu again outside of the Floating World.
Before, I shrank so much that I couldn't see you. Now that I suddenly see you, I don't seem to know what to say.
The girl in front of him was bright and generous. Compared to her gentleness when listening to the rain, she was more like a red rose in full bloom. Not to mention Feng Yi and Yu Ling, even she herself couldn't take her eyes off her.
“Huali, it’s been a long time since we last met in the Dream Realm,” Shao Siming said first. “My real name is Yu, you can just call me A Yu.”
“Sister Ayu,” Huali nodded, “It sounds beautiful.”
Shao Siming's smile deepened. "Come on, the dress is ready. Follow me."
*
At the same time.
The moment Huali stepped into the city, the divine consciousness covering the entire city surged in all directions.
The ancient residence in Linfeng County.
Wen Jin leaned back in front of him, his dark robe with flowing patterns making his skin appear even paler. His slender fingers tapped the armrest idly, his aura chilling.
Before the water mirror, the elders of Sunset City were babbling incessantly, “The Second Prince’s legs are crippled and he no longer poses a threat. Why does the Lord keep pressing him?”
"Ultimately, you two are of the same lineage..."
A barely perceptible hint of malevolence swirled in Wen Jin's pale golden eyes. He curled his lips into a cold smile, "What? All those old codgers who plotted to kill me during the Soul Returning stage have been eliminated. Are you all eager to join them?"
"This...this..."
A blood-red light flashed under Wen Jin's tear mole. Just as his patience ran out, he suddenly sensed an extremely familiar aura.
Wen Jin paused, tapping his fingertips on the armrest.
Before the elder could finish speaking, the figure in black had already vanished.
*
An ancient temple in Linfeng County.
Inside the meditation room, a single lamp flickered dimly, and the air was filled with the slightly astringent, cool fragrance of sandalwood.
Lian Zhuo sat upright on the futon, his plain white monk's robe spotless. His long eyelashes cast pale shadows as he silently recited the scriptures, like quiet butterflies resting there.
At the very moment the Buddhist disciple turned the Bodhi seed—
The same gentle scent penetrated through all obstacles and quietly settled on the lake of his heart.
Startled, Lian Zhuo slowly looked in the direction of Yunshang Yinyu.
*
Linfeng County Forest Farm.
The mountains and rivers resembled frozen waves, and the light, crimson armor of Shenyu outlined smooth yet explosive lines.
The boy's high ponytail drew a sharp arc as he focused on drawing his bow.
Just as the arrow was about to leave his hand, a strange yet familiar fluctuation suddenly entered his keen senses.
A whistle escaped from Shen Yu's lips, and the winged celestial horse fiercely tore through the clouds. He lightly touched the ground with his toes and landed on the horse's back, transforming into a streak of light!
*
In the courtyard of a residence within the city of Linfeng County.
Luo Chuan leaned against the rough tree trunk, one long leg casually bent, while the other was lazily stretched out.
The petals swirling around his fingertips looked as if they could be crushed at any moment.
The Demon King turned to look at the butterfly that was flying closer beneath him. A playful glint flashed in his heterochromatic eyes beneath his mask. He gently blew a breath, and the butterfly, dazed and disoriented, tumbled into the grass.
At the same time, the little girl's breath, like a gentle breeze, softly brushed against his consciousness.
A very low chuckle escaped Luo Chuan's throat. "My little girl... is back."
