Chapter 4665 — The Veiled Beauty
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Yet what caught Wei Zhao somewhat off guard was that at this moment a woman's voice suddenly drifted over: "What is Ultraman?"
Someone was actually striking up a conversation on her own initiative? Wei Zhao was briefly taken aback. He turned toward the voice and saw a woman wearing a veil slowly making her way over.
Though her face could not be seen clearly, her figure was exquisitely lithe and shapely—even the loose, voluminous robe could not conceal the graceful rises and falls beneath, stirring in one an irresistible sense of tender pity.
It was not only Wei Zhao. At this moment everyone in the plaza was looking at this woman who had suddenly spoken—especially the men present, each of whom could not help but gulp fiercely, their gazes burning.
Shangguan Lan'er and Han Jingyi were both peerless beauties, the kind of delicate creatures who inspired in all who saw them a reluctance to profane them. Ordinary women simply could not compare with the two of them, and would only suffer by contrast; only Ning Xuefei, Princess of West Island, could stand on equal footing with them.
Of course, in terms of beauty, Ning Shanghe, the Island Lord of West Island, was in no way their inferior either. It was just that the halo of power surrounding this top-tier figure was far too dazzling—no normal person would ever think of her in terms of beauty.
Yet the woman who had appeared this time, though her face remained hidden, was already, judging by her figure alone, a peerless beauty of the same caliber as Shangguan Lan'er and the others. And because she wore a veil, she was in fact even more alluring than Shangguan Lan'er and the rest.
To men, the unknown was always brimming with mystery and imagination, impossible to resist.
"Hey there, beauty! I'm Kang Jingming, and this is my divine weapon armor—very impressive, I tell you! How about we team up once we're inside? I'll lead the way and guarantee you come back loaded with loot!" Kang Jingming's eyes shone and his mouth watered, his face utterly unable to conceal its lecherous look.
Granted, there were peerless beauties right before him, but he dared not touch Shangguan Lan'er; Han Jingyi was plainly Wei Zhao's woman; and as for Ning Xuefei, one had to wait until the trial was won. Every one of these beauties he could only feast his eyes on. But now a stranger had suddenly appeared—a delicate creature likely no less beautiful than those three. How could that not drive a man mad?
Not far away, Xu Lingchong, hearing Kang Jingming issue this invitation on his own initiative, could not help but frown slightly. Yet after a glance at the woman, he still said nothing.
Ever since the plan had been reported to the higher-ups, Xu Lingchong might still be the person in charge, but the de facto leader had become Kang Jingming. So Kang Jingming did have some say, after all. Moreover, having such a peerless beauty along would be a feast for the eyes—a boon any man would crave, and even Xu Lingchong, incomplete man that he was, would not object.
"Oh..." The woman glanced at the obsequiously leering Kang Jingming, gave an ambiguous nod, then turned her gaze back to Wei Zhao. "Then can we team up and do the trial together?"
At these words, another uproar swept through the plaza. Every man looked at Wei Zhao with envy, jealousy, and hatred—expressions that practically screamed murder.
He already had so many peerless beauties at his side, and now a newcomer had appeared and was actually striking up a conversation with him on her own! Damn it, this brat's luck with women was simply outrageous—was there no justice left in the world? What were they, these lovelorn singles whom nobody gave a second glance, supposed to feel?!
Hearing this, Wei Zhao frowned slightly and reexamined the woman before him, a quiet puzzlement rising in his heart. Coming to him out of nowhere to team up—what did that mean? (To be continued)
