Chapter 1018: Chapter 1045: Mastering the Aura Very Well! (First Update) Chapter 1018: Chapter 1045: Mastering the Aura Very Well! (First Update) Before closing his eyes, Yang Zhen saw the looks from everyone around him, his face showing a surprised expression, but then he quickly came to his senses and let out a sigh.

Originally, this Sao Saint intended to keep a low profile, but my strength simply wouldn’t allow it.

In the beginning, Yang Zhen also thought that he and Ming Luan were incompatible, that sooner or later one of them would end up as the other’s dinner, but gradually, Yang Zhen realized that wasn’t the case at all; Ming Luan’s curiosity toward him seemed even stronger than that of the Blue Bird Saintess.

Although this guy looked haughty, he was always observant of Yang Zhen from time to time. Yang Zhen, although handsome enough to crumble, felt a bit awkward being scrutinized by such a sacred beast.

Upon trying, Ming Luan indeed did not reject Yang Zhen, which is why Yang Zhen even thought of using Ming Luan as a pillow while waiting for the Reincarnation Clock.

Seeing Yang Zhen actually lying on Ming Luan’s feathers to sleep, the expressions on everyone’s faces who were present turned to shock, especially Mei Xiang’s not far away, who, amid his dark countenance, had already revealed a glint of killing intent in his eyes fixed on Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen opened his eyes, looked at Mei Xiang from afar, and winked at him, his face all the picture of naivety.

Don’t be in a hurry, now I, the Sao Saint, am finally trying to keep it low-key for once. It’s not yet time to trouble you. Even that jerk of a cheap cat knows that “a gentleman seeks revenge, from morning till night”; I’m not someone who lets himself be taken advantage of.

You bully me in front of so many people and even want to kill me; who do you think you are?

A Saint Realm powerhouse?

Just then, the Blue Bird Saintess suddenly approached Yang Zhen and asked in astonishment, “Iron Bull, you and Ming Luan…”

Yang Zhen was startled, not expecting the Blue Bird Saintess to take the initiative to speak to him; he turned his head away as if he hadn’t heard anything.

A look of surprise flickered across the Blue Bird Saintess’s face, and Qi Yunling stepped up to Yang Zhen, giving him a little kick and scolded, “What’s wrong with you? Sister Qingluan is talking to you–how can you be so rude?”

Yang Zhen grinned and glanced at the Blue Bird Saintess, saying, “In our village, there’s a saying, ‘Beauty is a disaster; since ancient times, beauties have brought trouble. Whoever gets too close to such a woman will certainly encounter countless problems–I’m not falling for that!”

Hearing this, everyone showed an expression that was a mix of laughter and disbelief, and then felt a strong urge to throttle Yang Zhen there and then.

Damn it, people have been looking for years to get close to the Blue Bird Saintess and couldn’t find a suitable excuse, and here you are, when the Blue Bird Saintess approaches you to talk, you just disregard her?

God damn “beauty as a disaster”; if the Blue Bird Saintess is considered a disastrous beauty, countless people here would wish to be drowned by such a disaster.

The Blue Bird Saintess didn’t get angry, but instead looked at Yang Zhen with even more curiosity and asked, “Iron Bull, why would you say that?”

Her voice was as soft as ever, but everyone present could tell from her tone that it had become almost indifferent; it was clear that the distance between Yang Zhen and the Blue Bird Saintess was becoming even more vast.

This gave everyone a feeling of schadenfreude; they were almost eager to shout twice to celebrate.

Especially Senior Brother Botai from the Aurora Sanctuary; his mouth stretched from ear to ear, looking at Yang Zhen with a mocking expression on his face, and muttered to himself, “This is like lifting a rock only to drop it on your own foot; serves you right. Now that the Blue Bird Saintess has taken a step back, let’s see how you’ll perform!”

Although no one voiced their thoughts, the feeling was evident in their eyes, all bearing expressions of delight in Yang Zhen’s misfortune and looking at him with amusement, waiting for him to continue making a fool of himself.

Qi Yunling, clearly annoyed, stamped her foot and stealthily glared at Yang Zhen, her face full of disappointment.

Clearly, Yang Zhen was an interesting person, but this kind of interesting had no effect on the Blue Bird Saintess.

The Blue Bird Saintess was born with innate bloodline talents and her appearance and aptitudes were unparalleled, a once-in-a-lifetime genius; what kind of flattery and praise had she not heard? Yang Zhen’s unorthodox approach, although refreshing, was a bit too childish.

If this method worked, it would be miraculous and might indeed leave a profound impression on the Blue Bird Saintess; but if it failed, Yang Zhen would forever be branded as a joke in her memory.

All eyes were on Yang Zhen, waiting for him to explain.

But everyone knew in their hearts that no matter how Yang Zhen explained it, he was probably going to end up making a fool of himself.

Just when even Qi Yunling was anxious for him, Yang Zhen suddenly grinned and said, “Isn’t it obvious? Just look at the way everyone around us is staring.”

Upon hearing this, everyone present was dumbfounded and followed Yang Zhen’s cue to look around.

After seeing the expressions on many faces, they all became annoyed.

So that’s how it is!

Shit, do these people have holes in their brains? Even though everyone is waiting for Yang Zhen to make a fool of himself, can’t you at least try to appear as nonchalant as Yang Zhen?

The expressions on their faces are just too direct, too exaggerated, too shameless, too brazen, too…

Everyone quietly criticized the expressions of others, yet forgot that their own faces bore the same expressions.

Qi Yunling’s face showed an expression of transcendent admiration, while Senior Brother Botai once again looked like he was questioning his entire life.

Next to Botai, a rugged-looking man, completely puzzled, turned to Botai and asked, “Senior Brother Botai, this… what does Yang Tieniu mean by that?”

Botai sighed and shook his head, saying, “I’m convinced, such wild and fancy ideas, you can’t help but accept them. You don’t know what Yang Tieniu means by that?”

The man nodded and asked in surprise, “Yeah, Yang Tieniu is about to make a fool of himself, what does that have to do with anyone else?”

Botai, with an expression of admiration like Qi Yunling’s, did not answer the question but instead asked back, “Let me ask you, what kind of expressions are on everyone’s faces now?”

“Obviously, they all want to see Yang Tieniu make a fool of himself. Is there something wrong with that?” the man said with a confused look on his face.

“Why do you want to see Yang Tieniu make a fool of himself?” Botai showed an approving expression. When one truly admires someone, acknowledging their excellence is not that difficult.

“This… who let Yang Tieniu try to show off in front of the Blue Bird Saintess.” The man sneered, looking at Yang Zhen with disdain.

Botai sighed again, saying, “Yang Tieniu, on the surface, appears honest and simple, but he actually has deep and surprising thoughts. You have to admire that.”

“Senior Brother Botai, why are you praising him now?” the man looked even more baffled.

Botai suddenly laughed loudly and said, “You want to know why, right? Just look at the Blue Bird Saintess’s expression.”

The Blue Bird Saintess smiled, and in that moment, the whole world seemed to quiet down, and the dreadful aura looming in the air also became pleasing to the eye, making people less irritable.

She smiled, the Blue Bird Saintess actually smiled, amused by Yang Zhen… How is that possible?

All people present entered a petrified state in unison.

Dong!

A sound like a dragon’s bell echoed through the sky.

The figure of Yang Zhen became shrouded in mystery.

“I didn’t expect Brother Iron Bull to have such unique wisdom, Qingluan is impressed.”

Hearing this, everyone at the scene was stunned, staring blankly at Yang Zhen. Even Qi Yunling’s face revealed a curious expression.

“What… are you talking about?” Qi Yunling couldn’t help but ask.

Yang Zhen laughed heartily and said, “The world is drunk and I alone am awake. Lady Qingluan overpraises me. I am a bit tired and will take a nap first!”

After showing off, Yang Zhen stopped at just the right moment, his demeanor perfectly balanced.

“Ah!”

A cry of surprise came, and the rugged man suddenly spoke, “I get it now, Yang Tieniu is afraid that by appeasing Blue Bird Fairy, he’ll make an enemy of the whole world. He’s really a coward.”

Afraid?

Everyone chilled inside in unison; if this bastard were really scared, would he say such things, do such acts?

In the Blue Bird Saintess’s eyes as she looked at Yang Zhen, there seemed to rise a bit of curiosity, and her lips involuntarily curled.

“Are you afraid?” the Blue Bird Fairy muttered to herself. After speaking, even she was suddenly startled by her own words.
