Chapter 280: Master Yu
Sheng Xiao thought that he was mistaken.
He focused his gaze and looked again, but he noticed that the right side of Yu Huang’s face had completely changed. There was no longer any b.u.mpy burn scar, nor was there any charred scar left behind by the tribulation lightning.
There, it was flat and smooth with extremely pink skin.
The peerless face that had once stunned the entire Divine Moon Empire had returned!
Sheng Xiao stared at Yu Huang’s face in a daze.
To be honest, he was used to seeing her in a mask and had long accepted her ugly look. Sheng Xiao was not used to seeing her beautiful face all of a sudden.
The mask was already half-done from the lightning tribulation and could not be used anymore. Sheng Xiao thought about it and quickly found a scarf from the storage device. He covered Yu Huang’s face and even her eyes.
Donor and the others hurried to Sheng Xiao’s side when they saw that the lightning was gone.
When she saw that Yu Huang’s face was covered by Sheng Xiao, Donor asked Sheng Xiao cautiously, “Sheng Xiao, Yu Huang’s face…”
Donor swallowed hard and asked Sheng Xiao in a low voice, “Was it struck by lightning?” It was already very ugly, so wouldn’t it be even uglier if it was struck by lightning?
Donor felt that Sheng Xiao was very pitiful.
He was so handsome and powerful, but he had actually fallen in love with an extremely ugly woman.
Sigh.
Sheng Xiao nodded. He replied calmly, “Yes. Her face was injured and she bled a lot. I applied medicine on her. It’s not convenient for her to see anyone.”
Donor sighed and said, “I have a mask here. It’s mine. It might not suit her that well, but it’ll do.”
As she spoke, Donor took out a silver mask from his interspatial ring and handed it to Sheng Xiao. Sheng Xiao took the mask and asked Donor, “Why do you have a mask?”
Donol touched his handsome face, which had been blessed by G.o.d. “I’m so handsome,” he said. “Putting on a mask will save me a lot of trouble.”
Sheng Xiao rolled his eyes.
“Turn around.”
Thinking that Sheng Xiao did not want them to see Yu Huang’s ugly face, everyone understood and turned around cooperatively.
Sheng Xiao quickly took off Yu Huang’s scarf and put on Donor’s silver mask for her.
The mask was slightly bigger, but it wouldn’t fall off.
“Done.”
Everyone turned around.
With the mask covering her, everyone could finally observe Yu Huang.
Yu Huang’s body was covered by Sheng Xiao’s long robe. Everyone could only see Yu Huang’s exposed neck.
When she noticed that the charred skin on Yu Huang’s neck was changing, Zhong Luoxue felt relieved. She said, “Yu Huang’s skin will recover in two days. As long as she’s fine, she’s lucky.”
“Yeah.” When they thought about the tribulation lightning Yu Huang experienced just now, everyone couldn’t help but feel a lingering fear.
Xuanyuan Chen hugged his Crazy Demon Blade and said, “I have never seen such a powerful tribulation lightning in my life. It’s simply terrifying.”
Liuli Luoluo looked at Yu Huang with a complicated gaze. She said, “Yu Huang is bold.” She had even survived such a powerful tribulation lightning. Liuli Luoluo felt ashamed of her inferior talent.
Sheng Xiao said, “The Cong Lang Mystic Realm will be closed in two days. Let’s hurry up and find opportunities.”
“Sure.”
The others had left. Only Yin Rong, Lie Gang, and Xiao Shu remained. Seeing that they were unwilling to leave, Sheng Xiao asked, “Why aren’t you leaving?”
Yin Rong did not dare to answer.
Because of the exposé, Yin Rong did not dare to talk to Sheng Xiao now.
Xiao Shu noticed that Yin Rong was acting strange. He pressed Sheng Xiao’s shoulder and squatted beside him. “There’s something wrong in this mystic realm. There’s something wrong with that Cong Lang Mystic Realm Tower.”
Sheng Xiao suddenly thought of the portrait. He asked calmly, “What happened?”
Only then did Yin Rong dare to speak. “Most of the hundreds of beast tamers who charged into the Cong Lang Mystic Realm Tower with us were turned into dolls.”
Sheng Xiao could guess what had happened. “Tell me everything that happened after you entered the Cong Lang Mystic Realm Tower.”
Since he had nothing to do, Sheng Xiao sat down cross-legged beside Yu Huang. He waited for Yu Huang to wake up while listening to Yin Rong and the others describe their experience in the Cong Lang Mystic Realm Tower.
Sheng Xiao said after they were done, “There’s something wrong with that building.”
Sheng Xiao told them, “After we entered the Mystic Realm, Yu Huang and I went to the Cong Lang Mystic Realm Tower. But when we went in, the Cong Lang Mystic Realm Tower was a wasteland. Those treasures were already looted by the beast tamers who came in earlier.”
Sheng Xiao told them, “After we entered the Cong Lang Mystic Realm, Yu Huang and I went to the Cong Lang Mystic Realm. But when we went in, the Cong Lang Mystic Realm was a wasteland. Those treasures were already looted by the beast tamers who came in earlier.”
Xiao Shu’s face turned pale. “My G.o.d, is there a ghost?”
Sheng Xiao laughed when he heard Xiao Shu. “We don’t know whether there are ghosts or not, but people have souls. It’s not strange that their souls can rebel.”
Sheng Xiao glanced at Yu Huang and said, “Go somewhere else first. When Yu Huang wakes up, I’ll go to the Cong Lang Mystic Realm Tower with her again.”
“Okay.”
After telling Sheng Xiao about it, the three of them were relieved. They went to find other goodies together.
Sheng Xiao sat beside Yu Huang for the whole day. The next afternoon, Yu Huang finally woke up. When he sensed that Yu Huang had woken up, Sheng Xiao opened his eyes.
Sheng Xiao tilted his head and looked at her. Seeing that she did not speak, he could not help but feel worried. “Are you feeling unwell?”
Yu Huang said, “No.” She said, “Where are my clothes?” Yu Huang’s clothes had long been torn by lightning and hung on her body. She felt naked.
Yu Huang lowered her head and saw Sheng Xiao’s long robe covering her. She guessed, “Did the lightning tribulation tear my clothes?”
Sheng Xiao nodded.
Yu Huang’s expression changed slightly. She asked, “Didn’t everyone see my body?”
“No. You were hacked into a piece of charcoal by that time. It was so dark you couldn’t see anything.”
Yu Huang heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing that there was no one around, she lifted her long robe and glanced at her body. Her undergarments were still there, but her chest and thighs were a little cold. Only then did Yu Huang feel completely at ease.
“Huh?” When she realized that her skin had become even fairer, Yu Huang couldn’t help but say in surprise, “My skin seems to have become even fairer.”
“Yes. You shed your skin.”
Yu Huang waved her hand and said, “I’m a Master now. You have to call me Master Yu in the future.”
Sheng Xiao called out, “Master Yu.”
“Call me that from now on.” It sounded nice.
