How come I was the one being targeted?

At this time, Bai Jun reminded her that this was a collar for a pet and it was inappropriate no matter how he thought about it. Moreover, the girl's fair skin and lovely temperament did match the red collar very well, so he could only nod and praise awkwardly.

"Tell Bai Jun for me that I really like his gift."

Ye Lina carefully put the collar away and placed it in a box. Without looking at the other gifts, she took out an exquisite gift box from her cross-body bag and handed it to Bai Jun: "This is my return gift to him. I hope he likes it."

Bai Jun took the exquisite gift box. Through the glass on the packaging, he could clearly see how exquisite the watch inside was. The elegant and simple dial exuded an atmosphere of low-key luxury all the time. The material of the case seemed to be very high-end precious metal. After fine grinding and polishing, it was as exquisite as the strap that had been finely crafted.

Although Bai Jun didn't know much about the value of watches, even as an outsider, he could still see how valuable this watch was.

At this time, the people on the spaceship walked out of the cabin door and waved to Ye Lina, indicating that they could take off at any time.

"Oh, sorry, I should go now."

Ye Lina glanced at the time on her watch. Just before boarding the spaceship, she suddenly turned around and smiled slyly, "Bai Jun's sister, you're just as cute as your cousin, aren't you? I hope I can have dinner with you next time I come to the Immortal Ship!"

"Just as cute....Ahaha, thank you."

Bai Jun said goodbye to Ye Lina with a stiff expression. It was not until the spaceship she was on left the star gate that Bai Jun sighed with relief. He leaned against the railing in exhaustion and complained, "Su Shang is cute, but what the hell is cute about me..."

"Little girl, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" A Cloud Cavalry soldier who was responsible for maintaining order at the dock came over and asked with concern.

"It's okay, I'm just a little sleepy."

Bai Jun rubbed his cheeks. He didn't get enough rest last night, and a series of things made him feel a little tired. He just wanted to go home and rest, and figure out how to get rid of this damn transformation effect.

Then he stood up again and ran straight home without looking back.

Not long after Bai Jun left, Gui Naifen came here with Su Shang in the midst of Yunqi's puzzled and strange gaze. Gui Naifen lively showed the liveliness of Xingchahai Wharf to the audience in the live broadcast room, while Su Shang leaned on the railing with a tired look on her face, wondering why it was so tiring to live broadcast with Xiao Guizi.

"Eh? Little girl, why are you back again? Didn't you go back to sleep because you were tired?"

Yunqi looked at Suchang who was leaning on the railing again in the same posture as before, and thought he was under some kind of illusion. After pinching his thigh hard to make sure he was not dreaming, he couldn't help but come forward and ask curiously.

Su Shang blinked and pointed at herself in surprise: "Ah? What are you talking about, senior? I just got here."

On the other hand, looking at the front door of his house not far away, and thinking that he would be able to roll lazily onto his bed soon, Bai Jun felt a little touched.

When he walked into the corridor, he froze when he was about to take out the key from his trouser pocket. After realizing that he was wearing a skirt, he silently took his hand back. Moreover, looking at the dilapidated door of his house, it seemed unnecessary to open the door.

"Really? I have to fix the gate later... huh?"

Bai Jun's expression changed slightly. He didn't remember leaving the door half open. If someone he knew came to his house, he would definitely say hello. Then the answer was obvious - there was a thief in the house!

He calmly picked up the fake Xuanyuan brought by the fox mask's transformation effect and walked into his home quietly.

After realizing that the thief had not left and was even staying in his room, Bai Jun immediately raised his brows in anger and kicked open the door of the room.

..........

Captain Qingque, who had been working as a security guard in front of the Taibusi Division for several days, finally took a break from his busy schedule today. He took advantage of Fu Xuan's unpreparedness to escape and immediately ran to the Diheng Division to play with Bai Jun.

Originally, she wanted to give him a surprise when he was not prepared. However, after learning from his colleagues that he had the day off today, Qingque just followed the route she remembered and rushed to Bai Jun's house. As a result, as soon as she arrived at his door, she saw the door that was in tatters as if it had just experienced a catastrophe.

Qingque didn't even do anything before the door slammed down to the ground, so she had to go in and wanted to ask Bai Jun what was going on. However, after looking around the room, she couldn't find Bai Jun. This made Qingque feel troubled as she thought Bai Jun would definitely stay in bed and sleep in, so she had to sit here and wait for him to come back.

"Strange, this shouldn't happen. Why hasn't he come back yet..."

Qingque was wearing a cool summer outfit today, revealing her fair and delicate skin on her shoulders. Her soft brown hair was tied into a cute bun. She was lying on the bed, brushing her jade mirror boredly, her slender white legs swaying in the air.

It was really boring to wait, so she sat up and looked at the layout of Bai Jun's room curiously. After a look around, she found that Bai Jun's home was really too cold. The whole house seemed too clean except for a row of books in the bookcase.

Even under the bed, there is nothing like what you imagine only boys see.

With a plop, Qingque fell onto Bai Jun's bed again. She rolled lazily twice and buried her face in the quilt again, thinking that his bed was quite comfortable and it smelled good...

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the door: "Who dares to act wildly here——!"

"Ugh——!"

As the door was kicked open, Qingque, who was about to do something bad secretly, suddenly raised her face from the quilt, her little face flushed and she waved her hands, trying to explain: "No, listen, listen to my excuse...eh?"

"Qingque?"

Qingque and Bai Jun looked at each other. The first to break the brief silence was Qingque, who had thrown the cyan Emperor Yuan Qiongyu card from her pocket. She put her hands on her hips, pointed at the plain-sleeved Bai Jun and shouted, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into the home of a single man?"

"I should be the one saying this! And is this your home? How can you say such things so naturally?!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, you bitch! And how do you know my name?"

Ignoring his complaints, Mr. Que frowned and immediately wanted to hand Bai Jun over to the authorities!

"Uh, so what you mean is... you're actually Bai Jun, but you accidentally touched a mask of unknown origin, and that's why you look like this now?"

"Yes, you have to believe me!"

Qingque, who was supposed to be a guest, now sat on the bed as confidently as if she was the owner of the room, with her chin supported by her left hand and her white and tender legs raised. She listened to Bai Jun's explanation and nodded thoughtfully.

"I see... I understand."

Then, under Bai Jun's moved gaze, she reached out and pinched Bai Jun's face, sneering as if she saw through everything:

"I thought they just caught a petty thief, but I didn't expect he was a repeat offender. He can even lie like that without batting an eyelid. Come on! Follow me and turn myself in."

"Turn yourself in, damn it! If anyone really wants to turn themselves in, shouldn't it be you, the one who broke into someone's house?"

Looking at Qingque, whose face was filled with distrust, Bai Jun knew that if he didn't come up with some convincing facts, this matter would definitely not be so easy to fool away. So he sighed and pointed to the bookshelf in the corner of the room:

"In the third row of bookshelves over there, from left to right, are 'Introduction to Surface Treatment Technology,' 'Fundamentals of Materials Science and Engineering,' 'Metallurgy and Heat Treatment,' and 'Records of Ancient and Modern Swords.'"

Qingque compared them one by one and found that what he said was exactly the same as the books on the shelf. Her doubts were immediately dispelled. After all, besides Bai Jun, no one else she knew seemed to buy these books. However, this could not be regarded as complete trust...

As if sensing the lingering suspicion in Qingque's eyes, Bai Jun shrugged and continued, "The last time you played Diyuan Qiongyu with me, you stuck thirteen small pieces of paper on my face. Fu Xuan caught you and punished you to stand guard at the gate of the Taibu Division."

"Wow, Jeanne d'Arc is a mud-eating duck... No, wait a minute!"

Qingque changed the subject, stood up and moved closer to Bai Jun. His smirk made him feel a little uneasy. "One last question. When is my birthday? If you were Bai Jun, you would definitely know."

"...I plead guilty, Chief Sparrow, please arrest me."

"So decisive! Uh, no, we've known each other for so long, it's ok if you didn't know, but you didn't even try to guess!"

Looking at Bai Jun who had given up struggling and was lying on the ground, ready to be picked, Qingque complained loudly.

"You've never mentioned this kind of thing to me! And if you don't know, then you don't know. If you guess wrong, it will only arouse suspicion, right?" Bai Jun, who was lying on the floor, turned over like a salted fish and replied calmly.

However, his familiar tone and attitude were the best proof of his identity in Qingque's eyes.

"Alright, alright, I won't mess with you anymore. Tell me what's going on." Qingque followed his lead and sat on the floor, poking his cheek and asking curiously, "And your transformation is incredible... The temperature, touch, and smell of your skin have all changed."

"I don't know. My biggest headache right now is how to get rid of this state."

"After all, why did you become like this, and what is your relationship with the original owner?" Qingque narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone became a little heavier when he mentioned the last question.

"It's just a junior whom I happened to meet when I passed by today." Regarding this issue, Bai Jun had already thought of a corresponding strategy early on.

He sighed and ruffled his hair in frustration. "As for why I turned into her, it's probably because she happened to touch the mask before I put it on. So I think the mask's transformation effect might be related to this."

"A mask of unknown origin, a powerful transformation ability, an indestructible state...it all sounds like the work of a Star God. Could it be Changle Tianjun again?"

Mysterious higher beings like the Star Gods each control a different "destiny", can travel freely between the stars, and control the erasure of reality. Even if it is just a slight projection of power, it possesses tremendous power to easily destroy the world.

They have very little intersection with mortal civilization, such as Emperor Gong Siming, who is in charge of the "hunting" mission. His speed is too fast, and the observation samples of his body are very few, so the relevant information inside the fairy boat is not detailed.

Although people know very little about most of them, there are still a few star gods who often appear in the vision of mortals. Apart from the Plenty Medicine God and the Protector Kripa, the most famous one is the famous Joyful Star God Aha.

Compared with the previous two, this one is the real heavyweight. No star god is as troublesome as Aha. He has no self-awareness, is unpredictable, and does whatever he wants. There is nothing in the world that he dare not do. Once, he even turned a bug with an underdeveloped brain into a messenger.

Qingque had heard a lot about Ah Ha in the Taipusi before, knowing that he was a Chaos God who acted according to his mood and pleasure. From what she knew, those blessed with joy gained power far beyond imagination, but their fate was usually not good. Usually, when Ah Ha grew tired of them, they would fall into a predicament worse than death. And Bai Jun's current symptoms...

"Qing Yan, you are not infected with Aha, are you?"

"Eternal Joy Heavenly Lord? Not really. I don't feel any joyful power in my body."

Bai Jun's expression became a little more serious. He sat up and checked his body again. Even though Tai Shi Sui Huang was in charge, that Aha was really too scary and he had to be on guard against him.

"Master Fu Xuan is an expert on this sort of thing. Alas, she happened to be at the Pianzhi Gewu Academy in Yuque today to observe and study... Eh? How about I take a look for you?"

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Bai Jun, who is well aware of this, used his hand to hold back Qingque who was excitedly approaching him. Although he didn't say anything, his suspicious eyes said it all.

"Well, after all, he's a legitimate fortune teller, and things have come to this point, so we should try our best!"

"It's a last-ditch effort. Hearing what you said, I'm even more afraid to let you do divination!"

............

Finally, after much persuasion, Bai Jun chose to trust Qingque just once and see what she really wanted to do.

She closed her eyes and muttered something mysterious that Bai Jun couldn't understand. Then she slowly opened her eyes and ordered confidently, "Okay, take off your clothes."

"........ah?"

"Is there anything strange? I remember Lord Fu Xuan also did divination in this way." Qingque tilted her head in confusion, and her clear eyes left Bai Jun speechless, because she was right, Fu Xuan did it this way.

If it were in the past, Bai Jun would have taken it off directly, but the key is that the situation now is different from that time.

"I refuse. Let's think of another way."

Bai Jun's answer was very straightforward. Upon hearing this, Qingque realized that the current situation was indeed inappropriate. Moreover, what she wanted to see was Bai Jun's body, not another woman's body, so she had to wave her hand and give up.

"Why don't we ask General Jing Yuan? Maybe he can figure something out, right?"

This is a good idea. As a hunting envoy, Jing Yuan is trustworthy in terms of experience and strength. If there are any signs of Aha, even if Jing Yuan cannot detect it, there is still the God in charge.

But the fact is——

"I'm sorry, the God and I didn't sense any power related to the joyful destiny. I'm afraid it wasn't Lord Very Le Tian who was causing trouble." Jing Yuan, sitting at the office desk, folded his hands and shook his head with great regret.

"And please don't joke with me about this matter. Luofu's affairs cannot be delayed every minute... So are you really Bai Jun?" Jing Yuan picked up the teacup that had already gone cold and asked calmly.

But for some reason, Bai Jun could hear a hint of teasing in Jing Yuan's voice, as if he was just taking the opportunity to tease him. So he was equally merciless, imitating the look of someone drunk, and looking at the ceiling affectionately: "Ah, those years, like an irretrievable illusion, illusion, illusion..."

"Puff! Cough cough cough, enough is enough, Qingdui, please get the guest out now!"

After leaving the Shen Ce Mansion and walking back, Qing Que, who had been unable to get a word in, asked in confusion, "What did you just say? This is the first time I've seen General Jing Yuan so emotional."

"Nothing. I was just imitating the way he acted when he was drunk and standing on my roof."

Bai Jun shrugged complacently. He knew a lot about Jing Yuan's dark history, and this was just the beginning. He still remembered Jing Yuan's browsing history in Yuzhaoli, but he didn't tell him, otherwise Jing Yuan would be furious.

Qingque folded her hands behind her back and followed him silently, with a quiet and gentle smile on her face that he had not noticed.

In the past, she had thought she was attracted to Bai Jun's looks. After all, people are visual creatures, and Bai Jun's appearance was indeed on her level, so it wasn't a bad thing to say. But now it seems that it wasn't so superficial...

For example, his smile. I like his smile very much. Even though it is not his original appearance now, this has not changed.

For example, temperament. Everyone has his or her own aura, and when you stay with Bai Jun, you will always have a sense of tranquility, like the breeze blowing across the calm lake on your face. This kind of tranquility that comes from the soul cannot be faked out of thin air.

For example, I like to see the helpless expression with a slightly red face that he occasionally reveals when I tease him, or his arrogant behavior of saying one thing but doing another. These aspects are always attracting my attention.

Just like the scorching sun, he always exudes a dazzling light and a sense of security. Even though he appears cold and unkind on the surface, he is still gentler than anyone else.

Although this fact was embarrassing and she didn't want to admit it easily, her heart was indeed attracted to him.

That's right.

Her heart was completely attracted to this man.

After admitting this, I always feel my mood suddenly brighten up, as if a breeze blows into my heart, as if I have found some treasure, and suddenly my whole body feels light.

In the past, she might have pouted and turned her face away in a huff, not daring to admit the truth, but she confessed that she had fallen completely in love. After freely admitting it, a calm smile appeared on her face that even she had not expected.

Passing through a sparsely populated alley, this was the route Bai Jun deliberately chose when he came here in order to avoid Su Shang herself.

Bai Jun, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. Qing Que, who was daydreaming, bumped into him unexpectedly. Before she could react, Bai Jun hugged her and put her into the narrow corner next to him.

Logically, such a narrow corner could not accommodate both Bai Jun and Qing Que. Fortunately, his current body shape and height were the same as Su Shang's, enough for the two to stand face to face.

Countless pieces of information suddenly flooded into Qingque's mind. In the midst of ordinary daily life, it came without any warning, so suddenly -

And she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that Bai Jun was getting taller and taller... Her delicate and cute face quickly turned red, not only her cheeks, but also her ears, neck and even her whole body were trembling and starting to feel hot. Shyness gradually replaced her rationality.

"Shh...be quiet for a moment."

Bai Jun quickly silenced Qingque's shy scream with his hand. At the same time, he cast his gaze towards the two furtive figures not far from the alley. He held his breath and concentrated, and could faintly hear their conversation:

"Medicine King Compassion, what does it say?"

"Medicine King, be merciful. Master Digger has said that we shouldn't get agitated during this period. We should prioritize the overall situation. In short, we should focus on the upcoming concert tour. We don't know what the specifics are yet."

"Medicine King, be merciful, cough cough cough... The new grower in our area is being too picky. Do you have any medicine left? My totipotent stem cells are almost unable to support me..."
