The women were gentle and beautiful, while the men were elegant and handsome. There were a total of five men and one woman. At first glance, they looked pleasing to the eye. Their entire bodies seemed to be glowing, as though they came with their own special effects. It would be perfect if there was a piece of music.
The one who spoke earlier was the woman walking in the middle. She was dressed in a pink gown, and her smile was especially sweet. She walked straight towards them. After sizing up the few of them, his line of sight landed on Yu Yan next to Zhu Yao. He was slightly startled, took two steps forward, and softly asked. "Fellow deities, are you all worried about this Nascent Divided Pearl as well?"
Though her words were directed at the crowd, her eyes were looking straight at Yu Yan. She blinked her eyes, looking as though she wanted to say something, but was still embarrassed. Clearly, Zhu Yao and Nangong Cheng were the closest to her, yet, she just had to ask her master who was further away. Her heart instantly froze for a moment, and she took a step forward. What's going on? This man has an owner.
"Fellow Daoist, we're worried about finding helpers as well. Why don't we work together?" As though she could not see Zhu Yao, the woman continued to look at Yu Yan. Her face was filled with smiles the entire time, carrying a hint of mischievousness, as though she was a neighbor's little sister. And the five men by her side had been looking at her with doting smiles the entire time.
Yu Yan glanced at the person who suddenly stood in front of him, and habitually frowned. The cold aura emitting from his body grew heavier, and he casually grabbed Nangong Cheng next to him. "Decide." What's the point of slacking off when you're in your position?
Nangong Cheng: "…" She's not looking for him, so it's my fault.
"Fellow Daoist, I'm the captain of this team. I wonder what do you mean by working together, miss?"
"Ah, so you're the captain." The woman was startled for a moment. Her expression changed, and she instantly blushed. She timidly glanced at Yu Yan. "I'm sorry, I …" Her pure deer-like eyes, and that hint of redness on her face, could cause all male creatures to feel pity for her, making it hard for them to reprimand her. As a woman, Zhu Yao expressed that she had never seen such a skill before.
As expected, Nangong Cheng's expression instantly softened. "It's fine. Fellow Daoist, do you wish to form a team with us?"
"Yes." She nodded. "I'm Mei Xue, and I've just joined the Amway Group. Ten Nascent Divided Pearls are truly too much, and the places with Nascent Divided Pearls on the second floor are all very dangerous, so I'd like to invite everyone to come along. What do you think? "
Nangong Cheng's face lit up. There were six people on the other side. Including them, there were eleven. Their strength had increased by more than half. It would not be a problem for them to deal with three demonic beasts at the same time.
"Coincidentally, we also want to find more people. Immortal Friend Mei Xue's suggestion is just right. Let me discuss it with my teammates, as long as they …"
"I object." Zhu Yao raised her claws.
"Sister Dongfang!" Nangong was stunned for a moment.
Zhu Yao patted on Nangong Cheng's shoulder. You and Little Qing should join their team. My master and I won't join in the fun. "
"Don't, Dongfang girly. We came up from the next level together. It's fate. Why do we have to separate?" Also, I'm not Captain Huang.
Just as Zhu Yao was about to explain, Mei Xue suddenly took a step forward and butted in. "This big sis … These Nascent Divided Pearls are extremely hard to come by. One more person means one more chance of success. Furthermore, we have already been on this level for quite some time. We are extremely familiar with the terrain, and with more people, we will definitely be able to reach the third level very quickly. Big sis, why must you make things difficult for captain? "She said with a pained look, as though her refusal to form a team was something that would anger even the gods.
"Does it have anything to do with you?" What does it have to do with you!? This person is sick, right? Why did she pull aggro for me for no reason?
Zhu Yao rolled her eyes. She did not have a good impression of this person in the first place, so she couldn't be bothered with her anymore. She continued to speak to Nangong Cheng. "Captain Huang, the Nascent Divided Pearls of the second level aren't in the secret realm. Furthermore, they didn't request for us to use them together. Though the requested quantity is a little high, it's not like we can't gather them by ourselves. I don't have any plans to form another team for now, so let's bid farewell here. " Actually, when she saw the information earlier, she already had the intention to move alone. The aggro of Lightning Divine Palace was too high. If they were to move together, putting aside the fact that they couldn't use lightning-type arts, they might even be exposed at any moment. If it was just her and her master, there wouldn't be much to worry about.
"Wait a minute!" Seeing that she was really about to leave, Mei Xue suddenly stepped forward and pulled her sleeves. "Big sis, you …"
"Stop!" Zhu Yao interrupted her words. "Firstly, I don't have a little sister. Secondly, you've already said that you've been in the second level for quite some time. I've only just entered today, and I've never heard of you in the Divine Realm either. This proves that you've been in the tower longer than me, so you're definitely older than me. You're calling me little sister … Don't you think you're acting a little too young? Thirdly, this is the first time we've met, so why do you keep pestering me? "
"…" Mei Xue's expression stiffened for a moment, yet, her eyes suddenly reddened, as though she had suffered some kind of huge grievance. Zhu Yao instantly received five murderous gazes from behind her. "I … I'm doing this for your own good. I want everyone to be together … If big sis isn't willing, I … I … "
"Forget it, Xue 'er." A green-robed man on her right stood out. Glaring at Zhu Yao, he coldly snorted. "In this world, there are people who don't know what's good for them, and have eyes but fail to see. Not everyone is as kind as you. Don't feel bad for people like them. "
"…" The hell. She simply wanted to leave their group, and it wasn't even their group. How could they not know what's good for them, and have eyes but fail to see? Who are these retards?
"I'm fine." Mei Xue shook her head. She once again looked at Zhu Yao and said. "I just feel that big sis will definitely regret your stubbornness, and you will also implicate your fellow Daoist." She looked at Yu Yan at the back with a sincere look. "This fellow Daoist, please reconsider as well. The second floor cannot be compared to the first floor."
"Hoho!" Zhu Yao immediately took a step forward, knocking into her master's front. That gaze of hers, made her feel as though she was being poached away. "According to what you're saying, a stubborn person like me shouldn't join your group and implicate you even more. Shouldn't you be thanking me?"
Mei Xue was startled. In an instant, her eyes reddened even more, and her expression grew even more aggrieved. Faintly, glistening teardrops could be seen. "I … I, big sis doesn't like Mei Xue? That's why you don't agree to form a group with me? "
"That's right!" Zhu Yao nodded.
Everyone present was dumbfounded for a moment. No one had expected that she would actually admit it so straightforwardly.
"I just don't like you!" Zhu Yao said seriously. "I don't even know where you popped out from, yet you insist on stopping me from leaving. It would be strange if I like you. I thought you knew, but you don't? "
"You …" The green-clothed male Deity earlier was enraged. "You actually dare to be rude to Xue 'er!" In an instant, a powerful pressure pressed towards her, and it was filled with killing intent.
Zhu Yao was startled. She never expected that the other party would directly make a move, and for a moment, she was unable to react. Just as the pressure was about to land on her, her waist tightened, and she was instantly pulled into Yu Yan's embrace. In the next moment, a pressure that was even stronger than before, which carried a chilling intent, pressed back at her. In an instant, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire Amway Hall. That green-clothed male Deity could not stabilize himself for a moment, and as his divine energy rebounded, he puked out a mouthful of blood.
"Big brother Yeyu!" Mei Xue exclaimed, and hurriedly held onto him, preventing him from falling. The others did not have it easy either. Though the pressure was not directed at them, they still felt their hearts churning, and cold sweat dripped down.
The faces of the other four men instantly paled, and they looked at Yu Yan in front of them in shock. A person who had just arrived at the second floor actually had such powerful strength.
Yu Yan coldly swept his eyes across the crowd, and in an instant, the temperature in the room dropped by several degrees. "You can quarrel, but you can't hurt people!" Injuring his disciple in front of him, did they think he was blind?
For a moment, no one present made a sound, especially those few peerless men, their expressions were especially heavy. Instead, that female Deity called Mei Xue raised her head and glanced at Yu Yan. A hint of light flashed across her eyes, but it immediately disappeared. With a worried expression, she held onto the injured green-clothed male Deity. Zhu Yao frowned, and a strange feeling rose in the depths of her heart. She faintly felt that something was amiss, but she could not recall what it was.
Yu Yan turned to look at Nangong Cheng, and coldly said two words. "Leave the party!"
"Ah?" Nangong Cheng was startled for a moment, and then he immediately nodded. "Oh."
He did not waste any words, and pulled his disciple out of the door. This time, they left very smoothly, and no one dared to stop them. See, who said that violence could not solve problems?
— — — —
They flew towards a forest in the south of the divine city, searching for the whereabouts of the Nascent Divided Pearls. Recalling what happened earlier, the strange feeling in the depths of Zhu Yao's heart grew deeper. That Mei Xue kept giving her a strange sense of familiarity, especially that combination of five men and one woman.
These five male Deities all had extraordinary looks and auras. Even in the Divine Realm where everyone's appearance was off the charts, they could still be considered as top-notch, and were not inferior to her master. Furthermore, the few of them were all level three, which meant that they could be considered as well-known figures in this second floor. She just did not know why they would bring along a level one Mei Xue.
That's right, Mei Xue was level one! When she noticed her level, even Zhu Yao was shocked. This was the first level one player she had seen on the second floor. And the way those men looked at her, they did not look like ordinary Deity friends either. Instead, they looked a little like … lovers! Five against one, uh … Their tastes sure are heavy.
Shouldn't a situation like this be the standard for a Mary Sue?
Zhu Yao's feet paused, and a bell rang in her mind. A thread was instantly connected, and she knew what that strange feeling was. She was too similar to Yi Ling from before. The same image of a little white flower, the same Mary Sue attribute, the same circle of men who would die for her, and the same desire to pull beautiful men into their harem whenever they saw them. But why wasn't there the word 'bug' on her face?
She only walked the path of a harem, and did not walk the path of world destruction? Or could it be that the interior of the Lightning Divine Tower was not considered a world? Why did she feel that people like this were even scarier!? A humanoid biological weapon that would attract bees and butterflies at any moment and any place.
"Master …" She pulled onto the man next to her, and hugged him tightly. Raising her head, she said seriously. "Promise me, just like how fifth brother promised little swallow. Treasure your disciple, and stay away from Mei Xue's Mary Sue, alright?" If you have a change of heart, I will take revenge on society.
Yu Yan was startled for a moment. He looked a little strangely at his stupid disciple, and said with a frown. "Who's Mei Xue?"
"… …"
