Yun Sheng felt overwhelmed when she discovered that her Disguise Magic had been seen through, and the joy of becoming a wealthy lady instantly dissipated.
The Hunting Soldier Shen Feng from Xianju Country started following Yun Sheng like a ghost shortly after she left Cien Hall, and no matter how hard Yun Sheng tried, she couldn’t shake him off.
"Who are you, and why are you following me?" Yun Sheng asked, unable to get rid of him, she stopped and confronted him with the demeanor of a shrew scolding on the street.
"Little Loli, you can drop the act, I recognize your scent, no, I should call you Bloody Lolita instead. It wasn’t easy to catch you. Your magic is quite unique too, tsk tsk, much more effective than those Illusion Power Earrings you had before," Shen Feng circled around Yun Sheng like a little dog.
Oh no, her disguise had truly been penetrated.
It wasn’t surprising that the Illusion Power Earring was seen through since it was just an ordinary Magic Artifact. Encountering a Mage with astonishing sensory acuteness, it was normal for Yun Sheng’s true face to be recognized.
But why did the Disguise Magic also fail?
Since learning Disguise Magic, Yun Sheng had never been exposed. Today, she intended to go to Cien Hall, so she disguised herself as a sickly girl around fifteen or sixteen. Just as she walked out of the inn, some flaw must have been exposed, and Shen Feng saw through it.
"My Magic Attribute is wind, and I am more sensitive than anyone else. There is a nice-smelling scent on you, like the fragrance of a Medicinal Herb. I noticed it from the very beginning. This is your unique scent, and I would never mistake it," Shen Feng unabashedly sniffed around Yun Sheng’s neck.
Shen Feng’s words, while not entirely comprehensive, wouldn’t apply to just any Mage of Wind Attribute to be able to sense the subtle and identify the Disguise Magic like he did.
Yun Sheng’s Disguise Magic hadn’t been formally recorded in the Magic Temple’s tome of magic, and so not many on the continent could detect it.
But unluckily for Yun Sheng, she had encountered Shen Feng.
The fragrance on Yun Sheng naturally stemmed from her constant interaction with various Medicinal Herbs, coupled with her practice of the orthodox Taoist Skills, her body naturally emitted a faint fragrance that now betrayed her identity.
Shen Feng had an Elf heritage; within a radius of several miles, every wisp of breeze, every stream of flowing air could become his instrument.
If Shen Feng’s subordinates could see his behavior right now, they would probably cry out that it was undignified and not befitting of the Royal Family’s demeanor.
The Elf Descendants were historically indifferent to the Human Clan, considering humans shrewd and dirty. Shen Feng used to think so, too, but he inexplicably had a favorable impression of Yun Sheng, and he especially liked the scent she carried.
Ever since the day Yun Sheng shocked everyone in the Arena by transforming into the Bloody Lolita, Shen Feng had been looking for opportunities to corner her.
The Swallowing Heaven Battle Technique of Little Black was indeed mysterious, and Shen Feng intended to borrow Little Black from Yun Sheng for some research.
"Borrow Little Black? Impossible," Yun Sheng said warily, taking a few steps back.
Shen Feng, with a beautiful face, easily elicits fondness from others. However, when Yun Sheng learned from Wenren Xu that the Elf Clan does not distinguish between genders before the age of twenty, she became wary of Shen Feng.
Her body might still be that of a Loli, but mentally she was a mature woman. After experiencing heartbreak from Liu Ming Lang in her past life, she had a natural resistance to men, even if Shen Feng was a gender-ambiguous Elf Descendant.
"Don’t be so stingy, how about we make a trade? I just want to borrow your Summoned Beast for a look, just one day, only one day!" Shen Feng said eagerly, moving even closer to Yun Sheng.
Her breathtakingly unconventional face, when seen up close, dazzled Yun Sheng’s eyes even more; Yun Sheng could even clearly see her nearly transparent skin and her thick, fan-like eyelashes.
Fortunately, Yun Sheng had sufficient self-control and did not get flustered at the critical moment.
An item from the Elf Realm, to borrow her Summoned Beast for one day.
Yun Sheng calculated in her heart; after all, what he said he wanted to borrow was just her Summoned Beast.
She had seen the magic power that nearly destroyed the entire arena that day when Divine Wind competed; the magic of the Elf Clan are all closely guarded secrets, much more sophisticated than the Human Clan’s magic, and an item from the Elf Clan would certainly not be simple.
"Are you really just going to look at my Summoned Beast?" Yun Sheng stepped back vigilantly, maintaining a distance from Divine Wind.
"Elves do not deceive," Divine Wind said with an earnest face.
But at the same time, Divine Wind’s expression changed abruptly; he grabbed Yun Sheng and shielded her behind him.
"Since when has the majestic Divine Wind King started to lure innocent women?" Like a dark cloud bearing down, Prince of Hou Qin, together with Hei Er, appeared in front of them without any warning.
Yun Sheng recognized Hei Er, but who was this young man who had suddenly appeared?
Dressed in a black and gold Jiao-patterned combat robe, with a pair of long, soul-capturing phoenix eyes, a straight nose, and as tall as the two-meter-tall Feng Kuo, this man exuded a wild beauty.
Just by looking at him, Yun Sheng felt an instinctive sense of danger.
He gave her the impression of a proud Wolf King who could tear someone in half with his large hands at any moment.
"I was wondering who was so rude as to interrupt my conversation, and it turns out to be the Prince of Hou Qin," Divine Wind, without turning around, could feel that the little loli behind him was sizing up the Prince of Hou Qin with a probing gaze.
Next to Prince of Hou Qin, Divine Wind’s slender figure seemed so slight, which made Divine Wind quite dissatisfied.
"I’m merely being kind, reluctant to let that maiden be deceived by you. Most of the Elf Clan hold honor in high esteem, but the Wind Elf alone is fickle and unpredictable," Prince of Hou Qin’s gaze casually passed over Divine Wind and looked towards Yun Sheng who was hidden behind Divine Wind.
Pale and thin, neither striking in stature nor appearance, she looked like a very ordinary woman of the Human Clan, but why would someone as proud and noble as the Divine Wind King take a special interest in her, pondered Prince of Hou Qin.
Yun Sheng had Disguise Magic, and except for Divine Wind, neither Hei San nor Prince of Hou Qin could recognize that Yun Sheng was the same Bloody Lolita who had ruthlessly decimated the Heihu Hunting Soldier Team in the arena earlier.
"Pah, as if the Dark Crown Prince who uses human heads as drinking vessels would be so kind-hearted. Girl, be sure to recognize this man and run immediately the next time you see him; he is Dugu Xiu, the notorious Tyrant Crown Prince of the continent," said Divine Wind, and pointed at Dugu Xiu.
Divine Wind expected that upon hearing the name Dugu Xiu, Yun Sheng would surely be terrified; he intended to also take the opportunity to comfort the little loli’s frightened heart, but after a long while, Yun Sheng still looked bewildered.
"You haven’t heard of this Tyrant Crown Prince’s reputation? Then you must have heard of the Wuji Five Treasures," Divine Wind exclaimed in surprise.
"What are the Wuji Five Treasures? Are they famous? Are they people or treasures?" Yun Sheng’s words shocked everyone, and the face of Prince of Hou Qin also sank.
