Chapter 061 Ji Lianxing
The shabby-looking, short-statured restaurant owner was actually a woman in disguise! Everyone present was a master of their respective arts, including even someone as skilled as Du Zizhan, yet not a single one noticed. Her ability to disguise herself was truly remarkable.
The lewd restaurant owner laughed hysterically. Combined with her short stature and unsightly appearance, she looked exceptionally eerie.
Lin Fei couldn't help but shudder and said speechlessly, "Big sister, you should take off that face first, it looks kind of creepy."
"Who's your older sister? Does she look that old?" The restaurant owner glared at Lin Fei, then smiled charmingly, "But you're right, this guy is really ugly. Even when he's dressed up, he looks disgusting."
As soon as she finished speaking, the restaurant owner's body underwent a strange transformation. Her body grew larger and larger, and in just a moment, she transformed from a short man into a voluptuous woman, her clothes barely able to conceal her shapely figure.
And the layers of skin on her face peeled off, restoring her original appearance—this woman was absolutely a beauty among beauties, and more importantly, she exuded an incomparably alluring aura, truly a rare gem.
"The Falling Flower Mystic Maiden Technique of Feihua Palace is said to allow one to transform into thousands of different appearances. Seeing it today, it is indeed true to its reputation." Yuan Daotong, who had seemed extremely lazy, became unusually serious in an instant. He stood up and stared at the woman with lightning-fast eyes: "Your Excellency has been personally taught the Falling Flower Mystic Maiden Technique, so your status within Feihua Palace must be extraordinary!"
"You little charlatan, you do have some discernment. Even someone like Du Zizhan couldn't see through their disguise, yet you, the charlatan, saw right through it. Your Yuan family's Tui Bei Tu is quite impressive!" The woman covered her mouth and laughed, "Ji Lianxing, the current Holy Maiden of Feihua Palace, greets Young Master Yuan."
"The Holy Maiden of our time?" Lin Fei was startled. He had only wanted to catch a big fish, but he never expected it to be a golden dragon!
"Junior brother, don't be intimidated by her reputation." At this moment, Mingci also stepped forward, subtly forming a circle with Yuan Daotong, surrounding Ji Lianxing: "In each generation of Feihua Palace, there are at least a hundred Holy Maidens. It's like raising Gu poison, survival of the fittest, and only those who survive can inherit the Feihua Palace's lineage. Hmph, heretical and crooked, not worth mentioning!"
“This Taoist priest is right. It is true that only those who survive in the end can inherit the Taoist lineage of my Feihua Palace. However, in this generation, the one who will ultimately prevail will definitely be me.” Ji Lianxing’s gaze shifted to Lin Fei: “That little charlatan from the Yuan family has the inheritance of the Tui Bei Tu and can calculate my true form, so it’s not surprising. I’m quite curious, little fellow, how did you figure it out?”
Lin Fei was speechless: "Big sister, next time you disguise yourself, could you disguise your hands too? How could a sleazy man have such fair and tender hands? You've been waving the dishes in front of me for so long, I'm not blind."
Ji Lianxing subconsciously looked at her hands: "So it was these hands that betrayed me."
Her hands were fair and delicate, breathtakingly beautiful. Earlier, when she was waving the dishes in front of Lin Fei, Lin Fei had lost his appetite because of the vegetarian dishes on the table. Only when he glanced down did he discover her flaw.
However, Ji Lianxing showed no sign of disappointment. Instead, she giggled and said, "Little Taoist, these hands are my favorite feature. Even if I were to disguise myself, I would never change these hands."
As she spoke, her ten fingers, seemingly boneless, began to move with a wondrous rhythm: "You little Taoist priest, you're quite the impudent one, staring at my hands the whole time. You have no idea how many wonderful uses these hands have! They can even turn you, little fellow, into something big!"
Her voice seemed to possess a strange magic, causing Lin Fei to feel a surge of heat within him, and even a strange change was occurring in a certain part of his body.
"What powerful sorcery! I almost fell for it!" Lin Fei was only momentarily confused before fully regaining his senses. Fortunately, his cultivation of the Mind-Cultivating Sword Technique had forged his will into an incredibly resilient resolve through various illusions. Otherwise, he would have truly fallen for this demoness's trick today and made a complete fool of himself!
"Eh!" Ji Lianxing exclaimed in disbelief, "I didn't expect you, little Taoist, to actually have some skills! My interest in you has only grown stronger!"
"Ahem, Your Excellency, Holy Maiden." Yuan Daotong coughed rather awkwardly, "Do you really think that I and Daoist Mingci don't exist?"
Ji Lianxing giggled, her laughter shaking her head: "You little charlatan, you do have some skill in divination. But if it really came down to a fight, you probably wouldn't be a match for them! If you were confident you could handle them, you wouldn't be wasting your breath here talking to them, would you? Or are you trying to stall for time until Du Zizhan and the others return?"
As she spoke, Ji Lianxing's eyes darted around, her gaze sweeping over Lin Fei: "Then this humble servant will not keep you company any longer, little Daoist. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will slowly get closer to you. I was quite envious of your swordsmanship before!"
"Trying to leave?" Mingci roared, his sword flashing as he attacked Ji Lianxing. But his sword only struck a few petals. Within the petals, Ji Lianxing's figure had already vanished without a trace.
"Brother Yuan, since you've already seen through that demoness's identity, why didn't you expose her immediately?" Seeing Ji Lianxing escape, Ming Ci was also furious: "If we had revealed her identity earlier, with so many experts present, we might have been able to defeat her!"
"The will of Heaven cannot be defied, the will of Heaven cannot be defied!" Yuan Daotong waved his hand lazily. "I cast a divination earlier, and this demoness's fate is not yet exhausted; she is not destined to die here. If we reveal her identity, not only will we not be able to save her, but other unfortunate changes may also occur. The will of Heaven can be followed but not reversed. As a cultivator, you surely understand this, right, brother?"
Mingci was so angry at his nonsensical theory that she glared at him. Yuan Daotong simply spread his hands, looking like a rogue: "Brother Dao, why don't you go to the backyard of this restaurant and take a look? Maybe the real owner of the restaurant is still there. Saving a life is worse than building a seven-story pagoda, which is much better than you getting angry with me here."
Mingci stamped his foot. Yuan Daotong's status was no lower than his own, so even if he was angry, he couldn't do anything about it. He could only walk towards the back of the restaurant. Lin Fei was left alone there, staring at Yuan Daotong, feeling extremely awkward.
"Brother Yuan's divination skills are indeed incredibly amazing." Lin Fei took the initiative to speak in order to break the awkward atmosphere: "Even someone like Du Zizhan couldn't see through the demoness's flaws, yet Brother Yuan saw through them so easily."
"Divination is a minor art, nothing special." Although Yuan Daotong spoke modestly, his eyes still lit up when he mentioned divination, revealing his confidence.
