In Qing Province, there is only one woman whose beauty is as divine as a goddess.
She rarely feels astonished, even shocked.
You must know, even when she encountered someone like Xu Changâan, her first reaction was interestâcuriosity outweighing surprise.
Even facing the unfathomable Heaven-Reaching White Jade Purple Thunder, her first move was to attempt to keep it outside the Chaoyun Sect.
Even when faced with the Heart Demon Tribulation that reduced her cultivation by twenty percent, she could confront it with composure.
At least, she wouldnât be surprised to the point of losing herself...
But even Shi Qingjun at this moment felt astonished and was speechless for a long time, the piece of fruit she had bitten warming in her mouth.
She forgot to swallow.
Shi Qingjun: "..."
She watched the stage where Ah Qing slowly drew the longsword from her waist, exuding an innate charm, and a certain proud girlâs image flashed through her mind...
Shi Qingjun tried to make the images of the two girls in her mind overlap, but she couldnât do it no matter what.
Because once reaching the Qiankun Realm, oneâs essence should not be overturned, as she herself knew, even if seemingly altering her personality from overlooking the world to getting involved in its happenings, even going to the brothel to listen to music.
But the âessenceâ of Shi Qingjun, this woman, has not changed.
However, the woman on the stage is different.
She has completely changed, from inside out, from spirit to gaze, from her sea of consciousness to her trajectory of fate, entirely different from what Shi Qingjun understood...
How can a person undergo such changes?
Shi Qingjun did not understand.
Of course, she didnât understand, nor did she know the fact that a woman can entirely transform after falling in love, and thus she was stunned, unable to collect her thoughts.
"...?"
In the eyes of the Flower Moon Building girls, at this moment, Shi Qingjun was stunned by Ah Qingâs appearance, displaying a surprise different from her usual calm elegance.
âSee, even a noble lady like Sister Shi, a young mistress, was captivated by Ah Qingâs inner charm.â
There would be some pride if they considered Ah Qing as one of their own.
Shi Qingjun: "..."
She recovered, slowly lowered her head, looked at the fruit she had bitten, and slowly... meticulously chewed and swallowed what was in her mouth.
She suddenly became a bit dazed.
She shouldnât be mistaken about a person.
So, why did such a thing happen?
Where had the problem arisen?
Itâs really strange.
Itâs really strange.
Itâs rare to see such a strange occurrence in the world.
At this moment, Shi Qingjun suddenly felt the astonishment Li Zhibai had once experienced.
Maybe just like Li Zhibai was astonished and incredulous when seeing her in the brothel.
Shi Qingjun watched the woman in green on the stage, full of seductive charm, her breath gradually calming...
So Shi Qingjun began to ponder a matter.
In the eyes of ordinary people, is it more surprising for her to come to the brothel to listen to music, play cards with the girls...
Or is it more shocking to see that woman take the stage and perform, oozing sensuality?
Instinctively, Shi Qingjun felt that Ah Qing was stranger because she was just listening to music, at least not taking the stage... coming to the brothel to listen to music and transforming oneself into a brothel employee should be two entirely different choices.
But Shi Qingjun also understood one thing very well.
For Zhibai and Tong Jun, surely her listening to music in the brothel would be more shocking and incomprehensible to them.
Lord of Qing Province is different from others.
She is the lofty Frosty Heaven, whereas, in comparison... even though the Demon Sect Lady is in the Qiankun Realm, she is far from reaching the level of a âGod,â and that Demon Sect Ladyâs capricious nature makes her unfathomable. Rumor has it that she transforms countless times, making it impossible to comprehend her with normal human reasoning.
At least, if someone from the Demon Sect forcibly charged into the Chaoyun Sect, Shi Qingjun wouldnât be angry even if disturbed, but she wouldnât ignore it either. She would spare a moment to look at them and then casually use her gaze to subdue them.
But the Demon Sect Lady chose to spare Zhu Tongjun.
For a woman like the Demon Sect Lady, worldly views are insignificant, so even if she appeared in the brothel, took the stage, and transformed herself into an artiste-courtesan...
It probably wouldnât be something people couldnât accept.
However.
Understanding is one thing, but when all this truly unfolds before her, she still couldnât understand and still felt puzzled and astonished.
Evidently, the green-eyed woman already drawing her sword on stage hadnât noticed her presence.
This is also normal.
Once women like them begin to conceal their presence, except for being caught with the naked eye, itâs impossible to detect anything, even for Shi Qingjun, who only recognized her after finally looking seriously once she took the stage.
So, even though she is sitting right below the stage, as long as the otherâs gaze doesnât genuinely rest on her, she wouldnât be aware.
At this moment, Shi Qingjun keenly discovered something.
"Her name... is Ah Qing?" Shi Qingjun asked.
"Sister Shi, indeed her name is Ah Qing. Her original name remains, as Madam hasnât given her a stage name, just continued using it."
"...Hmm."
Shi Qingjunâs eyelashes quivered lightly.
No wonder she found the name âAh Qingâ familiar.
Even the means that seemed to tarnish her reputation felt familiar... no, itâs not.
Calling a Cyan Snake Ah Qing isnât inappropriate at all.
"..." Shi Qingjun withdrew her gaze, slightly lowered her head, and didnât continue towards Ah Qing, this way, as long as her eyes were not seen, there was a greater possibility of preventing Ah Qing from noticing her divine senseâs trajectory.
