Chapter 666: Red-Faced Ghost Transforms into a Fairy
Guo Bu Ran of Chongguang Guo Clan achieved a breakthrough to become a high-level martial artist in battle, greatly increasing his strength.

He was originally being hunted down by a wizard genius, but he broke through and fought back, killing three wizard geniuses in a row, and became famous.

This piece of news was not outstanding in the war. Apart from the Chongguang City circle who paid some attention to it, other parties just glanced at it.

As the war escalated, countless powerful warriors participated on both sides, the number of geniuses increased significantly, and the powerful armies of Gu Dao also came down from the clouds and became visible everywhere.

The most successful young man from an aristocratic family today is Liu Fengji, who has achieved a breakthrough in martial arts.

The other children of aristocratic families were somewhat overshadowed by the brilliance of Liu's Jixiang'er.

Liu Fengji directly raised the upper limit for children of aristocratic families, causing many children of aristocratic families who "became famous at a young age" to grit their teeth in hatred. This guy raised the threshold for "genius" and ruined the pot after eating, which was really a heinous crime.

The Gong family of Licheng is a famous family in one of the important towns in the outer prefecture. The crazy and handsome Gong Jinhuan was born in the Gong family.

Gong Wanyue, who ranks fourth on the beauty list, also comes from this family.

Compared with the first two, Gong Xiaoxie is somewhat unknown. Although he is also from the Gong family, he is far from the core in terms of qualifications and bloodline.

When he was born, he had a large lump on his neck which affected his appearance and he did not do as well as his brothers.

As you can tell from his name, 'Xiao' is not a serious generation name.

"Young man, I want..."

He was feeling annoyed when an old man came up to him and started nagging him. He immediately shouted back, "Get lost!"

This roar startled the warriors who were traveling with him.

Gong Xiaoxie's life was not going as he wished, but at least he had the name of the Gong family. Although he was not valued at home, there were many warriors outside who tried to curry favor with him and try to get close to the Gong family.

These warriors are all disciples of Licheng Martial Arts School. They have made a name for themselves and have well-known nicknames.

Among them was a female martial artist nicknamed "Red-Faced Ghost". She had a large blood-red birthmark covering most of her face. She looked more like a ghost than a human, but she was already a martial artist at a young age and was stronger than many men.

Although she looks ugly, she has a good talent for boxing and her personality is indeed a bit soft.

Seeing Gong Xiaoxie getting angry, she was afraid that the old man might be accidentally injured, so she gently advised, "It's not convenient here, please leave for now."

Zhou You was originally staring at the lump on Gong Xiaoxie's neck. He had never encountered such a peculiar case. The seal characters were buried under the skin with the outline of the lump. If he performed "surgery" on him, a completely new case could be developed.

However, Gong Xiaoxie had a bad temper and scolded him directly. The others watched coldly, and only the "Red-faced Ghost" tried to persuade him kindly.

Zhou You glanced at the red-faced ghost. The girl was less than twenty years old, petite, with a small face and regular features. The skin on her neck was delicate and white. If it weren't for the birthmark that covered most of her face?

"Ok?"

Zhou You suddenly found that he was lucky. In the team of less than a hundred people, there were actually two panel-certified negative targets that met the requirements.

One is Gong Xiaoxie, and the other is a female martial artist nicknamed the Red-faced Ghost.

He was already a junior martial artist before he was twenty years old. Although his talent could not be ranked top in Beixuanzhou, he was still considered a leader among the martial arts schools in the city.

Zhou You glanced at Gong Xiaoxie and said, "A great opportunity will be gone soon, so don't regret it."

He turned around and looked at the female martial artist with a smile, "What is your name, Excellency?"

The female martial artist walked Zhou You to the side and said softly, "Everyone calls me the Red-Faced Ghost!"

"No, that's not a nice word. Ghost is an insult. I want to know your real name."

The female martial artist lowered her head and whispered, "When the owner adopted me, he didn't find a token to prove my identity, so he let me take his last name and named me Jian Xiaocao."

Is the abandoned baby that was picked up like a blade of grass that no one cares about? As they talked, the two walked one after the other a few hundred meters away from the main group, and the noisy voices could no longer be heard.

Jian Xiaocao took out a package and said, "Here are some food and daily necessities. Old man, you should go home as soon as possible."

She could see that Zhou You's body was completely devoid of strength, his blood and energy were drained, just like an ordinary old man.

This is a war zone, filled with ferocious witches and wizards. If you encounter them, you will surely die.

"Xiao Cao, thank you so much. You are a kind child, beautiful and kind-hearted."

Hearing Zhou You's praise, the birthmark on Jian Xiaocao's face turned even redder, as if bleeding. She said hurriedly, "Old man, don't talk nonsense. I'm not beautiful at all. My senior brothers all say that I'm ugly like a ghost."

School bullying has been confirmed, and it is very likely that the nickname of Red-Faced Ghost was given by these fellow martial arts students.

Zhou You was just feeling curious. Generally speaking, people with birthmarks on their bodies were all from aristocratic families. If Jian Xiaocao was an abandoned baby from a poor family, it was impossible for him to have a birthmark with seal characters.

But he could be sure that the birthmark covering the other person's face was a natural birthmark with text.

In this world, due to the different levels of attainment in seal script, many noble families lack the means to confirm whether the birthmark is related to seal script. Only the legitimate sons who are highly regarded like Liu Fengji and Guo Bu'ran have this opportunity. The vast majority of the clan members who are not valued will never be able to confirm their innate talents in their entire lives.

Gong Xiaoxie just now and Jian Xiaocao in front of him are both the same examples.

A tattoo artist is like a carving knife, chiseling away the stone crust and digging out precious jade.

"Xiao Cao, I'm a cosmetic surgeon and I can fulfill one of your wishes!"

"You gave me something, and I have no way to repay you. How about I use my skills to help you remove the birthmark on your face?"

Jian Xiaocao waved her hands quickly, stepped back and said, "Don't bother, I'm fine this way, everyone is used to it!"

"Returning a favor is human nature. I accepted your gift, and you don't want me to be ungrateful, do you?"

Jian Xiaocao thought for a long time in embarrassment, "Well, old man, I'm ugly anyway, so it doesn't matter if you fail, and a few more scars won't matter."

So this is what she was afraid of!
Zhou You laughed, "Don't be afraid, I'm an experienced hand, just take a nap, and everything will be fine when you wake up."

for a long time……

"Why hasn't the red-faced ghost come back yet?"

Several fellow disciples from the martial arts gym were eating dry food and drinking water. They looked at Gong Xiaoxie with envy. This Gong family member took out food from his storage pocket and shared it with his companions, which made the surrounding warriors envious.

A fellow disciple suddenly noticed that Jian Xiaocao was missing and asked his companions, "Have you seen her?"

"No no"

"I do not have either!"

"Didn't she just drive that old man away? Why hasn't she come back yet? Could it be that she met a witch and was beaten to death? Ha!"

The senior brother who led the group was mature after all. "Shut up, everyone. If we lose the grass, what are we going to say to the owner when he asks about it?"

Suddenly, a soft voice sounded, "Brother, I'm back."

The senior brothers in the martial arts school looked back and were choked with complaints and accusations.

A beautiful woman with a radiant face stood in front of him, with a familiar timid expression and wearing familiar clothes.

Someone asked stupidly, "Who are you and why are you wearing the red-faced ghost's clothes?"
