Chapter 135: Bai Li's True Appearance
At the receptionist table of the Lan Inn, the receptionist was sitting on her seat while eyeing a certain figure who had entered the inn but just went to stand at a corner.
The figure was probably a man considering the size and shape, but she couldn't be sure because of the black robes the figure wore. From the top to bottom he was completely black and showed the vibes of a shaddy guy.
The receptionist got a little scared when she saw the figure coming towards her and took out her communication stone and was ready to call her manager if the figure did something shady.
Bai Li looked around and finally stopped at the receptionist table as she questioned in a low voice, "Were you given orders to bring someone like me to a special place?"
She was actually cursing in her mind as she thought about Ning Xi who had just told her to come to the Lan Inn and nothing else. She couldn't just come easily so she had to do the disguise.
The receptionist was terrified and wanted to call her manager but fortunately, a red headed drunkard came to solve the situation.
"Ah! You're finally here. He's with me."
Ning Xi gave a wink to Bai Li and then turned towards the receptionist.
The receptionist was flustered seeing Ning Xi and bowed, as she shook her head.
"You should talk more."
Ning Xi said, as she threw her hand over Bai Li's shoulder and began to drag her towards the stairs. They were occupying the top floor, after all.
Bai Li waited for a while and when they were alone, she cursed.
"What the hell! You two left me just like that without any information or anything. You didn't even give me a communication stone or something to talk to you."
Ning Xi shrugged.
"You're just as dense as I am. Even you forgot to ask so don't blame it on me. Anyways, are you excited to meet Master?"
"I am...kind of. But it's more nervousness, to be honest. I don't know if I would qualify...."
Bai Li pursed her lips and looked down.
"Don't worry. I'm sure Master will take you in. Although your mother was a scheming bitch, you're a honest person like me."
Ning Xi laughed as she climbed the wooden stairs and soon reached the top floor where she directly took Bai Li towards their meeting room.
Upon opening the door, Bai Li felt a lot of gazes on her which were filled with intrigue and curiosity. She shifted slightly before taking a deep breath and entering the room with Ning Xi.
She looked at everyone in the room and was surprised at the sheer number of beauties that were sitting there. Each and every one of them was worthy of being called the most beautiful woman and yet they were all gathered, surroundings a handsome man.
When Bai Li saw Shen Yu, it was as if her breathing had stopped but despite that her heart began to race rapidly. She couldn't look away and only after Shen Yu clicked his fingers did she broke out from her trance.
"I think it would be good if we talk with our real appearance."
Shen Yu smiled at Bai Li as he looked at her in curiosity. He could have seen her true appearance easily but he didn't want to do that for obvious reasons.
Bai Li wasn't surprised hearing that as she was already prepared for it. She took off her black robes, revealing a macho man with deep black hairs wearing simple man's clothing.
After that, she reached out to her chest and fiddled around for a while before pulling out a square shaped amulet which had a blue gem embedded in it.
Bai Li's body then began to shrink and change at visible rate. In a matter of seconds, a tall beautiful woman stood where a macho man stood previously.
She had long, wavy blonde hair that fell gracefully down her back, framing her face beautifully. Her bright blue eyes sparkled, almost like the blue gem amulet she held. Even in her true form, she has visible muscles that showed her nature.
With her arms crossed and a small, confident smile on her lips, she looked like someone who was both commanding and calm.
'Hmm, once again, why the hell I'm surrounded by so many Beauties? Like how thick is my plot armor that every woman who joins is beauty of heaven?'
Shen Yu rolled his eyes slightly, still not looking away from Bai Li. But of course, he was more than happy to be surrounded by beautiful women.
"Alright, please sit and tell me... about everything?"
Shen Yu asked, with a little uncertainty. Nevertheless, Bai Li understood him and began to recount her story which also included some things from the time she was trained in the Seven Stars Sect.
But it was mostly what she had already told to Ning Xi and Ying Yue.
After hearing her whole story, Shen Yu didn't know how to feel. For one he sympathized with her as she had no one who genuinely loved her. Everyone that even showed cared for her was just using her, even her mother.
But he also admired her for never giving up on herself. Even though she was practically alone, and had her existence stolen away, she still held on. Not only that but she even came this far.
She was a person to be admired.
"Alright, so basically what Yue'er suggested is that you can join my Sect and serve me. In return, you would get the Sect's support to overthrow the current Sect Leader of Seven Stars Sect? Am I getting it right?"
Shen Yu asked.
"Yes, Master Shen. I have only one goal in my life and that is to end Bai Meng's life and get the answers to my questions. Once that is done, I will gladly offer you my everything."
Bai Li dropped on her knees and pleaded.
"So, I ask you to take me as your disciple. As unworthy as I am, I will serve you with heart, body and soul."
Shen Yu smiled but then he noticed a mischievous glint in Ning Xi's eyes and rolled his eyes.
