Chapter 93 Just Because You're Too Beautiful

Said it before.

Purple Lotus Island consists of thirty-six islands.

On every island, there is a small town.

The first island city is called Cuiyue City. It is built against the mountain and looks like terraced fields from a distance. The houses and buildings rise one step at a time, which is very spectacular.

On a bustling street in the city.

As Meng Bai walked forward, he communicated with Su Xintang in his mind.

"Does Lu Xiqing have a twin sister? Or is there someone in the Zheng Shen Mansion who looks a lot like Lu Xiqing?"

Indeed, Meng Bai had begun to doubt whether the person following behind him was actually Lu Xiqing.

But Su Xintang replied, "No, I've never heard of that."

Given Su Xintang's status, she wouldn't be able to see Lu Dai. Even Lu Yunluo might not have seen Lu Dai for many years, so it's normal that she wouldn't know these things.

After hearing her answer, Meng Bai was completely puzzled: "That's really strange. How could her personality change so drastically? Or is this her true nature, and we misunderstood her before?"

“Very likely. Think about it, I’ve only met her once in the past ten years. How can we make hasty judgments about her personality?”

After saying that, Su Xintang asked again, "No, what happened to her?"

Meng Bai first glanced back at Lu Dai, who was dressed in a pink palace gown and wearing a white veil hat, and then quickly told Su Xintang about the situation yesterday and today via voice message.

After hearing this, Su Xintang said with a headache, "Then what should we do? The butterfly is still on Lu Yunluo. We need to retrieve it at close range before we can give it to the next person."

If butterflies don't need to be retrieved at close range, then releasing butterflies wouldn't be so troublesome at all. You could just randomly encounter a beautiful woman on the road and put her on her.

It is precisely because of the need for recycling that we need to get to know this person first, so that we can find and get close to this person after the dream is over.

Of course, the reason why so much effort was put into Lu Yunluo was mainly to successfully infiltrate the Lu family; releasing butterflies was just a side effect.

Everything was going perfectly, but suddenly it was all ruined.

Scratching his forehead with his finger, Meng Bai pondered, "Retrieving the butterflies is easy. Just find an excuse to go to the Divine Palace to see Lu Yunluo, and she will definitely come out to see you."

“That’s true.” Su Xintang was taken aback. If Meng Bai couldn’t find Lu Yunluo, she could go to her.

Meng Bai continued, "After you retrieve the butterfly, you can also befriend the goddesses from other outer islands. It's not difficult. Think about it, they're here to compete for your master's place in the sacrificial rites."

Your master's fame has soared this time because of his reputation for keeping his promises to his beloved disciple, and you are that disciple. Therefore, once they know your identity, they will probably take the initiative to befriend you.

If sneaking around won't work, let's be open about it. Remember how we brought back lots of exquisite little trinkets from Earth that the River Drum doesn't have? Packing them in a box for our friendship won't make them seem expensive, nor will it seem cheap.

"I...I'm not good at socializing." Su Xintang was a little unsure. She was indeed not the kind of person who could please everyone, otherwise she wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable situation before.

"You have to believe in yourself. You're an athlete who studied abroad on Earth."

"I……"

"Give it a try. Even if it doesn't work out, there's no loss. We can still communicate in real time via voice. And even if we don't succeed, we still have the [fees] we haven't used yet. What are you afraid of if you have a way out?" Meng Bai continued to persuade him.

“Okay!” Su Xintang stopped being coy. “I’ll go find Lu Yunluo first.”

"Okay, let's split up. I'll try to find out Lu Xiqing's true intentions and also figure out a way to shake her off. If she keeps following me like this, we'll never be able to get back to Earth."

"She doesn't have the power to stop us from traveling through time, does she?"

"We can't stop her, but we have to come back eventually. What if she gathers people and sets up a stronghold where we left? Wouldn't we be instantly killed if we showed our faces?"

"Please be careful. I'm going to find Lu Yunluo." Su Xintang took a deep breath and didn't delay any longer. She knew what she could do to help Meng Bai the most.

After finishing the conversation, Meng Bai walked forward for a while before stopping, turning around, and looking at Lu Dai.

Lu Dai stood tall and straight on the street with her hands behind her back, looking at Meng Bai through the white veil of her veiled hat.

"Goddess Lu, you've been following me on this journey too. Let's not beat around the bush, what exactly do you want?"

"Didn't I say that when I was at home just now?"

"Does the goddess think I'm a three-year-old child who can believe in such nonsense as love at first sight?" Meng Bai chuckled, then probed, "Could it be that the goddess is worried that I'm a spy for the Zhang family, and that's why she treats me this way?" "Brother Xu, don't overthink it. This Purple Lotus Divine Island is a beautiful place. I just want to accompany you for a stroll."

"..." Meng Bai was speechless.

How can we communicate like this?
This woman looks no different from a lunatic now.

Little did Meng Bai know that this was Lu Dai's doing; she wanted to keep Meng Bai completely confused.

In this way, she will have the opportunity to find Meng Bai's weaknesses and find out his true nature.

In her view, Meng Bai must have some unknown means to plant a tree in the statue of the righteous god without anyone noticing, and even be able to mobilize the power of the righteous god of his elder brother.

Therefore, she would never act rashly before fully understanding Meng Bai's methods. What if she underestimated him and ended up caught off guard and defeated?

And you know what? From God's perspective, Lu Dai's choice was really right.

Because Meng Bai actually had something that could cause her a lot of trouble—that "incense and distracting thoughts bomb".

Lu Dai is already trapped in the mystery of all living beings. If Meng Bai were to blow her up with his distracting thoughts, no one knows what would happen in the chain reaction.

Meng Bai was naturally unaware of these things, and he didn't think it had come to the point where it was necessary to use a distraction bomb to destroy "Lu Xiqing".

After thinking for a moment, he chose a shameless way to test the waters, saying, "I've been feeling a bit tired lately, and I'm planning to get a medicinal bath at the hot spring pavilion up ahead. If you'd like to come along, then come along."

"Does Brother Xu think I, Lu, dare not?" Lu Dai chuckled.

You watched me shower before, so I'm watching it back today. We're even now.

You'd better strip naked so I can see exactly how you erased the mark of the Yin Spirit.

"Goddess, don't be stubborn. If it's not for your reputation, then come along." Meng Bai strolled leisurely toward the hot spring restaurant ahead.

"What is reputation?" Lu Dai asked dismissively.

Before Meng Bai could reply, she continued, "My great-aunt Lu Dai, in her youth, cheated and swindled to make a living, doing so many immoral things that she was universally hated. Everyone who mentioned her would spit on her."

"Huh?" Meng Bai turned to look at "Lu Xiqing". What was this girl doing, making fun of her great-aunt?
Lu Dai didn't care and continued, "But so what? When my great-aunt attained the Spirit God position, she was surrounded by only good people; when she attained the Register God position, she was praised wherever she went."

By the time she attained divine status, there was no longer any praise or criticism. For her name was something that could not be casually uttered by the beings of the River Drum.

At this point, Lu Dai paused, looked at Meng Bai, and said, "Brother Xu, tell me, is temporary fame important?"

After saying this, Meng Bai, who had been walking forward, stopped.

He turned to look at "Lu Xiqing" beside him, and at that moment it was as if he saw a kindred spirit.

However, it is true that those of the same kind are enemies, which made Meng Bai even more wary.

He countered with, "So, the goddess doesn't care about her reputation?"

"Do I need to care?"

"If that's the case, why does the goddess wear a veil to cover her face? Isn't it because she's afraid of being recognized? The goddess is probably not being entirely sincere," Meng Bai mocked.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Dai took off her veil and casually tossed it to the side of the road.

Then she laughed and said, "You're mistaken. I wear a veil only because I'm too beautiful and don't want to be seen by passersby. It's not because I'm afraid of being recognized."

"???" Meng Bai.

"..." Meng Bai.

Snap~ Snap~ Snap~ Snap...

Meng Bai applauded in amazement.

He thought he had been shameless enough.

Meeting this woman in front of me today, I finally understand what true shamelessness means.

To even say something like, "I'm too beautiful, I don't want to spoil the sight of passersby," is simply outrageous.
