Upon seeing the woman's face, the saintly woman's expression changed drastically. She opened her lips, as if she wanted to say something several times, but in the end, she said nothing.
Just then, a terrifying aura erupted: "Insolence!"
Immediately afterwards, Zu An was blasted hundreds of meters away. The woman's long black hair flew wildly, her clothes fluttered, and she radiated a colorful glow.
At this moment, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she stared at Zu An with murderous intent in her phoenix eyes.
Zuan was also dumbfounded. He never expected that the comedy of their reunion would take such a sudden turn for the worse. When he went to hug Da Manman, she reacted so strongly.
Wait, what's going on?
Yao Ji's rage points: +999 +999 +999...
What's going on with this Yao Ji?
Zuan stared blankly at the woman opposite him. Her features were exquisite, her face was flushed, and even her signature talent was exactly the same. Who else could it be but Da Manman?
Seeing that Zuan was stunned, and that the woman seemed to be gathering some powerful move to attack, the Holy Maiden finally reacted and hurriedly spread her arms to block between the two.
"Sister Pei, why are you suddenly so angry? Brother Zu is just too excited because he hasn't seen you in so long."
The woman paused, then asked in confusion, "Sister Pei?"
The saintess quickly said, "Yes, Sister Pei, you went missing a while ago. Brother Zu searched for you everywhere, from the rebel army's base to the demon royal tomb. He even fought against the Lord of Slaughter and the Lord of Demons, risking his life. All of this was for you."
"The Demon Clan's Royal Tomb, the Lord of Slaughter, the Lord of Demons?" The woman frowned slightly, still beautiful, though the killing intent in her eyes seemed to have faded somewhat.
"Manman, what's wrong with you?" Zuan had a vague guess in his mind, but compared to that absurd guess, he preferred to believe that Manman had lost her memory.
Upon hearing his voice, the woman's expression turned cold, and the killing intent in the entire space seemed to intensify.
The saintess glared at him irritably and said quickly, "We came here to visit the God of Baojiang, guided by the Six Enlightened Witches. We want to ask for a Glazed Hairpin Flower to save Little Xi's illness. You disappeared before because you were looking for this flower. I didn't expect to meet you here again. By the way, how did you end up here?"
She spoke quickly but clearly and articulately, explaining their relationship with Pei Mianman while subtly bringing up the Six Enlightened Witches.
The stunningly beautiful woman opposite them roughly understood what was going on.
The woman then said coldly, "I am not the Sister Pei or Manman you are talking about. You have mistaken me for someone else."
Zuan: "..."
His suspicions were confirmed, and he was completely bewildered. Could there really be two people in the world who looked so alike?
Then he thought of the Mermaid Queen and the Peacock Princess, who were very similar to Shang Liuyu and Kong Nanwu in later generations, so it was not impossible that there really was someone in the world who looked just like Da Manman.
The thought of losing track of Manman again made Zuan feel completely disoriented.
The saintess thought to herself, "As expected," but still feigned surprise as she looked at her: "You're not Sister Pei? How could that be? We're so close to her, how could we mistake her?"
Hearing her words, the woman became somewhat impatient: "You have indeed mistaken me for someone else. But what about the Demon Clan Royal Tomb, the Lord of Slaughter, and the Lord of Demons that you just mentioned? Why have I never heard of them before?"
Seeing that she didn't even know these few, Zu'an completely gave up: "It seems that we really mistook you for someone else. I'm really sorry for being so abrupt just now."
Seeing his sincere attitude, the beautiful woman's expression softened slightly. Actually, she was also a little surprised. Logically speaking, if she were suddenly hugged by a strange man, she should kill him immediately, except for being angry.
For some reason, when she saw the other party, although she was angry, she did not have much killing intent. Otherwise, even if the woman next to the other party blocked her way, she would not have been able to stop her from making a move.
Strangely enough, even though I've never met him before, I have a strange sense of familiarity with him.
"I wonder if you are the Goddess Baojiang?" the saintess asked tentatively.
The beautiful woman shook her head slightly: "I am not Bao Jiang, I am his next-door neighbor, I just happened to come to see him."
"Next door?" Zu An's heart stirred. He looked around. This area was the Ling Mountain range. He wondered where she lived.
"This is Brother Zu An. My name is Yumen Beiqing. May I ask your name, young lady?" Seeing Zu An's distraught appearance, the Holy Maiden had no choice but to take matters into her own hands and try to find out more information.
The beautiful woman hesitated for a moment, but then, thinking of the strange familiarity she felt with Zu An, she said, "You can call me Yao Ji."
"Yao Ji?" The Holy Maiden's expression changed. "The one who is said to be the youngest daughter of Emperor Yan, later known as the Goddess of Wushan?"
Zuan was startled. He finally remembered why the name sounded familiar. The last time he came to the secret realm, he heard the Ten Witches of Lingshan mention this neighbor. At that time, they warned him that the other party had a special identity and that he should never go to Goddess Peak to offend the Goddess of Wushan.
I never expected to meet her in this way after coming in, and I never expected that she would look so much like Da Manman.
The Goddess of Wushan narrowed her eyes slightly and turned to the Holy Maiden: "You know me?"
Zuan was also a little surprised, as even he hadn't thought of this, but his younger sister reacted even faster.
"Many people know the legend of the goddess, and seeing her now, she truly is otherworldly and refined." The saintess offered a small but significant compliment.
The goddess of Wushan remained calm, clearly having heard similar compliments many times: "You say you were sent by the Six Enlightened Witches, but do you have any proof?"
Zu'an took out the tortoise shell that Wu Peng had given him, and without any apparent movement from the Goddess of Wushan, the tortoise shell flew directly into her hand: "Indeed, it is Wu Peng's aura. Since you have gained their approval, you must not be bad people."
The tortoise shell floated back to Zu An's eyes. Smelling its faint fragrance, Zu An was somewhat dazed. It really wasn't Manman.
"If you've come looking for Baojiang, I'm afraid it's a bit unfortunate; he's already left," said the Goddess of Wushan.
"He left? Where did he go!" Saintess looked anxious.
The Goddess of Wushan replied calmly, "I just came to find him and saw the message he left behind. He should have gone back to Heaven to report."
"Is it still too late..." The saintess was momentarily lost in thought, as if all her strength had been drained away.
Zuan glanced at her thoughtfully before asking, "Does the goddess know how to find him? I have an important matter I need his help with."
The Goddess of Wushan said irritably, "Do you think your matter is more important to him, or reporting back to the Heavenly Emperor?"
Zu An sensed the faint sarcasm in the other person's tone, so he had no choice but to explain, "But he is in great danger now. If it's too late, he might be killed. Since the goddess was able to enter his cave, she must be his friend and certainly doesn't want him to die, right?"
The Goddess of Wushan's expression changed as expected: "Why would you say that?"
