It was Zhang Ruochen’s first time hearing about such a miraculous Thousand-Mile Vision.

Thus, he experimented with it.

He used the illusion and Traceless 36 Changes at the same time, activating all the power of the Unfounded Pearl, but Xiang Chunan could see through it every time. His eyes were even more powerful than the Yin Yang Mirror.

Is there really such a coincidence in the world?

Zhang Ruochen rubbed his temples, feeling a headache.

Why did he have to run into the Dark Fool?

He’d finally carved three time prints onto the s.h.i.+ning Sun Arrow. But instead of killing the Thousand Star Maiden, he’d lost the fatal arrow and even alarmed her.

Now, it would be even harder to try and a.s.sa.s.sinate her.

Xiang Chunan glanced at Zhang Ruochen again and grinned. “Brother, I’m confused. Why are you spying on a group of ugly women from so far away? Why did you shoot an arrow at them? Are they your enemies?”

“Ugly women?”

Zhang Ruochen looked at Xiang Chunan strangely.

Even though he wasn’t interested in the famous Thousand Star Maiden, Fairy Tianchu and Lady Huairou, he still had to admit that they were definitely top beauties. There were countless talents who pursued them.

If they were ugly, then there probably weren’t any pretty girls in the entire world.

“Yeah, so ugly!” Xiang Chunan said. “Look at how pale they are, and their bodies have dents everywhere. They’re not round at all. And their faces hurt my eyes. The ugliest one at least knows her place and covers up half her face with a cloth. Otherwise, she’d get beaten up if she walked in our village with those looks.”

Shocked, Zhang Ruochen laughed inwardly. If the Thousand Star Maiden knew that she was being judged like this, then she’d probably chase Xiang Chunan to the end of the universe.

Coughing dryly, Zhang Ruochen asked, “Then what’s a beautiful girl to you?”

Xiang Chunan’s eyes brightened and he started drooling. Imagining something, he said dreamily, “First, their bodies have to be perfect. Their waists can’t be any thinner than a bucket. And they have to be as dark as me, need a big face, thick lips, big ears, and a short neck. And their legs—this is important. They can’t be too thin. They have to be as thick as a bowl’s mouth.”

Then he sighed. “Unfortunately, it’s too hard to find a beautiful girl like that. The girls I’ve seen after coming to the Truth Heavenly Domain are each uglier than the last. I’m in despair.”

Zhang Ruochen touched his nose and studied Xiang Chunan for a long time before asking, “Have you seen top beauties like that?”

“Of course!” Xiang Chunan said seriously. “My teacher’s wife and junior sister are all top beauties.”

It dawned on Zhang Ruochen. “So, your teacher’s wife taught you about beauties?”

“No, it’s my teacher.”

Then, Xiang Chunan continued, “Ever since childhood, he told me that his wife is the most beautiful woman of the thousands of worlds. My junior sister would be the top beauty of the next generation. Brother, I’ve never told anyone else about this secret. If you ever meet my junior sister, don’t get any ideas about her just because she’s so pretty. She’s already mine.”

Xiang Chunan was both proud and a bit guarded.

Zhang Ruochen looked pitifully at him. It was so sad. His standard of beauty had been twisted since young. His teacher was probably a pitiful man too.

This Dark Fool probably came from a diverse place isolated from the rest of the universe. His previous actions probably weren’t on purpose either.

Otherwise, instead of patting Zhang Ruochen on the shoulder from the back, he would’ve smashed his skull apart.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t continue asking. He prepared to leave and flew toward Kongling Island.

“Brother, wait!” Xiang Chunan caught up with him.

“What are you following me for?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“Didn’t we say that we’ll be sworn brothers?” Xuang Chunan asked.

“But we just met each other.”

“If we’re fated, then why does time matter?”

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen actually didn’t know how to refute him.

The Dark Fool was extremely fast. Even if Zhang Ruochen used the Spatial Move, he could still catch up. Zhang Ruochen couldn’t get rid of him.

Thus, he stopped, preparing to talk to him.

Xiang Chunan caught up breathlessly. Seeing Zhang Ruochen waiting in the front, he grew excited. “Brother, you agree?”

Zhang Ruochen put his hands behind his back. “It’s not a good thing to follow me. I have a lot of enemies and some of them are really powerful. They’re extremely cruel. Not only would they attack me, they’d also attack the people beside me. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll die the day after you become my sworn brother?”

Zhang Ruochen really didn’t want to harm a Dark Fool who didn’t have any calculative thoughts. The sight of his senior brothers and sisters’ heads hanging on the Yin and Yang Palace’s gate was still fresh in his mind.

Xiang Chunan immediately grew furious. “Am I the type of person to be afraid of trouble? Brother, tell me who your enemy is. I’ll go kill them now!”

This Dark Fool never went according to what was normal, making Zhang Ruochen chuckle wryly. He couldn’t do anything except say, “Fine. If you want to follow me, then do it!”

Xiang Chunan happily walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side. Laughing, he said loudly, “To be honest, I don’t know anyone in the Truth Heavenly Domain. I don’t even have a place to stay, so at night, I just find a tree and sleep until morning.”

“You don’t cultivate at night?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“I do, but you still have to sleep when needed. Otherwise, how boring would life be?”

Zhang Ruochen sighed. He suddenly realized that Xiang Chunan wasn’t the pitiful one. It was himself.

He wished he didn’t have to care or worry about anything, didn’t have to cultivate with all his life, and could sleep peacefully on a tree.
