Chapter 337 The Unglamorous Fox Fairy vs. the Aloof Dragon Lord (13)
As she spoke, she convinced herself, "Everyone says that the Dragon Lord is not interested in women, but as someone who has been through it, I don't believe it. Any man who says he's not lustful has just not met someone who can arouse his lust."
"I think this Dragon Lord has unusual tastes. Could it be that he likes spicy food? The more Anning tries to take action, the more he likes it." After saying this, Auntie successfully amused herself and kept laughing, making He Suining's face turn a little red.
She has never known how to get along with her elders, from the past to the present.
Especially when faced with well-intentioned teasing from elders.
Aunt placed the wooden box back into He Suining's hands and gently patted her arm. "Anning, although the Dragon Lord is a good person, don't force yourself if you don't like him."
This Dragon Lord is, after all, a cultivator of the Path of Ruthlessness. If he's truly sincere towards you, I'll feel at ease. But if not, you mustn't fall for his tricks.
“Men, whether they are from the mortal realm or the immortal realm, or even…” Aunt didn’t dare to say it aloud, but both of them understood what she meant, “there are no bad men among them, so you must keep your eyes open.”
Ultimately, her aunt was afraid that she would get hurt.
Anning is different from other little foxes. She lost her parents when she was young and was raised by her.
He always wore a mask, focusing solely on cultivation and detached from worldly affairs.
She couldn't be more innocent.
If we really were fooled by the Dragon Lord, Auntie would be furious.
A warm feeling washed over He Suining, and she nodded, "Yes, Auntie, don't worry."

At the banquet.
Although Ze Chen was the organizer, he remained seated on a chair below, silently drinking from a wine jug and occasionally eating a couple of peanuts, his expression serious.
Everyone else was puzzled.
Even Immortal Yuehua is feeling better, so why does Lord Zechen seem unhappy?
If it weren't for Ze Chenjun's years of searching for medicinal herbs for Immortal Yuehua, this appearance alone would have sparked countless rumors and gossip.
But nobody had time to look at him.
Some fawned over others, while others chatted.
"Speaking of which," just as Ze Chen continued drinking, a celestial being with a crown on his head struck up a conversation with him, "Why did you suddenly start pursuing Fairy An Ning? I remember she wasn't exactly your type."
Sitting opposite Ze Chen, Yi Tian silently raised his eyes and glanced at the man who had spoken.
There is a long distance between them.
A long table was placed in front of everyone, and they sat on the floor on a comfortable long rug.
Everyone knows the immortal who is speaking.
He was a mortal who ascended to immortality. The Nine Heavens Immortal Lord had an ordinary appearance but was about the same age as Ze Chen. He was usually quite jealous of how Ze Chen and the Dragon Lord were liked by those beautiful fairies.
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to cause trouble for the Dragon Lord, so he just kept finding fault with Ze Chen.
The two of them don't usually run into each other, but unexpectedly, he started joking around on this occasion.
"Could it be that Ze Chenjun has changed his taste? He's seen too many beautiful fairies and now needs something more exciting."
Immortal Lord Feiyun, who was standing next to Immortal Lord Jiutian, quickly stopped him, saying, "Jiutian, you've had too much to drink."
"What do you mean, 'drunk'?"
The Nine Heavens Immortal Lord did not accept this favor and pushed away the Flying Cloud Immortal Lord's hand.
He spoke up bluntly, "Immortal Lord Zechen, say something! You must have been chasing Fairy Anning for more than just a little while, right? Have you seen her face under the mask? Isn't she ugly?"
The surroundings fell silent instantly, making the voice of the Nine Heavens Immortal Lord sound extremely jarring.
Yi Tian slightly raised his eyes, his eyes, which were usually devoid of smiles, now looked unusually cold.
His sword-like eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his lips, neither thin nor thick, were drawn into a straight line.
"Discussing the appearance of fairies in public is not the behavior of a gentleman." Yi Tian's icy gaze fell on the ordinary, unremarkable face of the Nine Heavens Immortal Lord. "Besides, who gets to judge whether someone is beautiful or not? You, Nine Heavens?"
amount.
The wine that the Nine Heavens Immortal Lord drank seemed to have no effect; the Dragon Lord's words instantly sobered him up.
He didn't care whether An Ning was ugly or not; it was none of his business.
It's just using An Ning to provoke Ze Chen; if he can see him lose face, that would be great.
He just hadn't expected the Dragon Lord to speak on An Ning's behalf. Why? Everyone said the Dragon Lord and An Ning were sworn enemies, and they even fought a few days ago, a truly epic battle.
"No, no." The Nine Heavens Immortal Lord smiled awkwardly, stood up and bowed to the Dragon Lord as an apology, "I drank too much and talked nonsense."
Only then did Ze Chen realize what was happening, and his face turned ugly.
"Whether Anning is beautiful or ugly doesn't matter. What matters most is her character..." He almost blurted out that Anning was the one who gave his mother the Sacred Heart Flower, but luckily he reacted in time and didn't say it.
The saying goes, "Wealth should not be flaunted."
The same applies in the Immortal Realm. If others feel that Anning is very wealthy, they will find other things even if they don't have the Sacred Heart Flower.
It would be bad if this brought her to her death.
"I like her simply because of her personality and inner qualities, and it has nothing to do with her appearance."
After these words were spoken, the surroundings became even quieter.
Yi Tian raised his eyes and shifted his gaze from the Nine Heavens Immortal Lord to Ze Chen.
like?
At this time.
The fairies finally arrived, albeit late.
Leading the way was Fuying, who had arrived first. She and her other girlfriends, dressed in pink blouses and draped with pretty ribbons, walked in.
A small bell hangs from the waistband, making a pleasant sound when you walk.
As soon as she walked in, Fuying, who was all smiles, sensed that something was off.
She smiled at Ze Chen with a puzzled expression, as if nothing had happened and the two were still friends. "Ze Chen, it's so good that Immortal Yuehua has woken up."
She held the gift box in her hand and handed it to Ze Chen, saying, "This is my gift. Inside are some tonics. I hope you can take good care of your health and recover soon."
Ze Chen waved his hand.
The little boy on one side lowered his head and accepted the gift, while others followed suit and presented their gifts one after another.
Fu Ying found a seat and talked to the person next to her, only to find out what had just happened.
Her eyes flashed, and she regretted that she had arrived too late and had missed the scene.
But it doesn't matter.
Fu Ying continued the conversation, determined to make An Ning's appearance the focus of the topic, "So you were just talking about An Ning's appearance. Actually, I think Ze Chenjun is right. Beauty is not the key to judging a person. Even if An Ning's face is ugly, she still has many good qualities."
A fairy looked at her questioningly, "For example?"
She touched her face; she was someone who really cared about her appearance. "I think looks are very important. If I ever get wrinkles, I'll be so anxious."
"Sometimes I really admire An Ning; how does she manage to remain so calm and composed?"
What a great assist.
Fu Ying smiled gently at her, "Perhaps An Ning is used to it, which is probably why she has such a strong mentality. I wonder how many times she suffered because of her ugly appearance when she was young, sigh."
His words were filled with heavy sighs.
Yi Tian snorted coldly, and everyone heard it.
The person who was about to speak immediately shut their mouth.
"Fuying, you keep calling her ugly, have you even seen what she looks like?"
Fu Ying trembled with fear. The Dragon Lord's icy voice was like a block of ice falling into her body.
She was afraid that if she couldn't answer, she would be crushed to pieces in the next second.
Although it was just her hallucination, just thinking about it was terrifying.
“I have never seen the Dragon Lord.” Fu Ying shook his head and spoke honestly.
None of the people here have ever seen what Anning looks like, so of course she wouldn't dare lie.
Yitian smiled.
His lips curled up in a smile, but it only made him seem angrier. "If you haven't seen it, then don't talk nonsense."
Although Fuying was afraid, her reaction was more of a defiant attitude than fear.
They relied on their numbers.
Fu Ying bit her lip and spoke softly, yet everyone could hear, "But Dragon Lord, if she is truly not ugly, why does she wear a mask?"
That makes sense.
Yitian stared at her.
Before I could say anything, Ze Chen beat me to it this time.
Ze Chen suddenly picked up the wine jug and gulped down a few mouthfuls of wine before standing up abruptly.
He slammed his hand on the table with a bang. "Shut up. Fuying, let me tell you, no matter what Anning looks like, I love her."
Fu Ying wasn't angry at his words. After a few seconds of stunned silence, she laughed and said, "That's great. It means you really like her. I wish you both the best."
She really didn't expect Ze Chenjun to be able to act so realistically.
"It's already so lively here." He Suining arrived late, but through the system, she roughly knew what had happened.
She walked into the hall.
Yi Tian raised his hand. "Here."
The sheer fabric He Suining wore looked quite unique. It refracted light beautifully, creating a shimmering effect.
"Wow--"
Everyone was amazed by the dress, but upon closer inspection, they also felt that Anning Fairy had an extraordinary temperament.
Only then can you wear this garment properly.
Although she wasn't particularly tall, she was incredibly graceful. She wore the sheer fabric beautifully, making her captivating.
Especially the moment when Fairy Anning saw the Dragon Lord.
Her eyes lit up, and she smiled at him.
The moment I laughed, I was met with a chorus of "Wows!"
"I think Fairy Anning is quite pretty."
"Who cares if she's pretty or not? Beauty is a feeling, you know? The flowers bloomed the moment she smiled."
"No wonder Fairy Anning doesn't smile much usually. If she smiled more, regardless of her looks, she would be attractive enough."
He Suining had just arrived, and with a slight smile, the atmosphere instantly changed.
Fu Ying pursed her lips unhappily.
She looked down at her outfit, her carefully chosen attire seemingly going unnoticed by anyone.
how come.
She spent a lot of time on her outfit from head to toe, looking at herself in the mirror again and again, and couldn't find a single mistake.
How can it not compare to peace and tranquility?
“Fairy Anning.” Fu Ying gritted her teeth, unwilling to let her off the hook, “We were just discussing your appearance.”
The voice just fell.
A fox fairy exposed her, "Yes, especially Fuying, who insisted that you were ugly. It was the Dragon Lord who refuted her, it's really speechless."
Fuying's face stiffened.
When everyone looked over, she was already incredibly weak. "That's not what I meant. You've all misunderstood... Anning, since everyone has doubts, why don't you take off your mask? That way, the truth will be revealed."
He Suining didn't have a chance to speak.
Yi Tian reached out and patted the back of her hand on the table. "You don't need to listen to her."
She shook her head.
She hadn't planned to pick them in the first place, and now that they've been picked, her plans have been completely disrupted.
Moreover, if it doesn't fit the character's persona, it will be detected by the Heavenly Dao.
It wouldn't be good if we sent her back then.
She wouldn't do something so foolish for Fuying, who was determined to compete with her for a man.
He Suining looked at Fuying with a hint of pity in her eyes.
She had warned Fuying long ago not to target her.
But she just had to court death.
"I wonder if everyone still remembers when I first came to Dragon Valley. Fu Ying, you brought up my appearance. Do the fairies who were there that day still remember how I responded?"
Many of the fairies who were with Fuying that day have come today.
They looked at each other, thought carefully, and then remembered.
"Oh, I seem to remember. The Fairy of Tranquility said..." The words were on the tip of her tongue, but although the fairy remembered, she dared not say more.
On the contrary, another fairy didn't think too much and said directly, "Fairy Anning said that her appearance is so beautiful that it would make us feel inferior if she took off her mask."
He Suining took a bite of a grape and almost burst out laughing.
She didn't say she was stunningly beautiful, but she did say the last part herself.
Everyone looked at her curiously.
The Fairy of Tranquility sat confidently in place, her slender neck slightly raised. Although her face could not be seen, everyone felt that she should be beautiful.
There seems to be nothing wrong.
“Yes, that’s what I said, thank you.” She smiled at the fairy.
The fairy blushed.
The person who was least likely to believe it was Fu Ying. She shook her head, her eyes full of sympathy. "Fairy Anning, you don't need to be like this. Just now, Ze Chenjun said that no matter how pretty you are, he likes you. Why do you have to tell such a lie?"
“I’m really curious.” This time, Yitian spoke expressionlessly. “You’ve never even seen her, yet you insist on saying she’s ugly. Is it only when An’an is ugly that you’ll be happy?”
Who is An An?
It took everyone a moment to realize what was happening.
He Suining was also quite helpless.
It seems that every time Yitian is addressed, he has to be different from others, as if he can't show that he is special if he isn't.
Fu Ying hurriedly shook her head, "I really didn't mean that..."
"enough."
Ze Chen couldn't listen anymore. He stood up and glared at Fu Ying.
He cared deeply for every young fairy, and he truly didn't want to hurt them unless absolutely necessary.
But this time, he decided to break that principle.
“Fuying, when I first started pursuing Anning, it was because of a deal with you. You disliked her from the very beginning. Were you afraid that others wouldn't know, or did you think I wouldn't say it?”
