Chapter 1226: Chapter 1226: Who does Huihui like?

What’s going on? Lan Xuanyu looked at Yuanen Huihui, who was floating back, with some surprise. When did he start having feelings for someone?

Suddenly, Lan Xuanyu felt that he wasn’t quite up to the mark as a team leader! Huihui has a girl he likes and he didn’t even know about it!

Tan Xiaodao chuckled mischievously, “Huihui’s been quite secretive! Boss, do you know who he likes?”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head, “I have no idea!”

Tan Xiaodao let out a strange laugh, “Boss, I’m not one to stir the pot, and I don’t know how you would react, but if he didn’t tell you something so important, I wouldn’t be able to stand it if I were you.”

Lan Xuanyu cursed with a smile, “Aren’t you stirring the pot? How else do you want to cause trouble? Keep it down.”

“Alright, alright.” Tan Xiaodao immediately shut up and mimed a zipper across his lips.

Next to Yuanen Huihui was Qian Lei, who looked at the returning Yuanen Huihui with a face full of gossip, “Huihui, you sly kid! When did you start liking someone? Is it a secret crush? Or unrequited love?”

Yuanen Huihui’s face flushed as he tilted his head up arrogantly, “Why should I tell you?”

Qian Lei chuckled and said, “If you don’t want to tell, then don’t. But you’re going to confess later anyway. I’m off.” As he spoke, he sped toward the front on the lotus leaf.

Speaking of showing off, Qian Lei was absolutely unrivalled among the seven of them, and now was no exception. As he surged forward, a sudden burst of golden light enveloped his body. His entire body’s golden fur burst forth and a powerful bloodline aura emitted from him. In the blink of an eye, he had transformed into a gigantic Golden Behemoth over fifteen meters tall.

His thick, muscular arms swiped out from his sides, and blades sprang forth from his fingertips. Each blade was a meter long and half a meter wide, as if they could even tear the sky apart.

The terrifying aura continued to skyrocket, and from his body, it seemed as if a pillar of golden light shot up into the sky. The overbearing presence truly overshadowed the assertiveness of everyone who had come before him.

Lan Xuanyu facepalmed, he could barely watch. This guy really loved to show off. The key point was, he was in a battle-ready state now! With that menacing look, was he here to participate in matchmaking?

Weren’t there anyone up front who could exhibit a stronger presence? But today was for matchmaking! A slight display of one’s ability and potential would suffice. Who does it like him, releasing their Martial Soul True Body right from the get-go?

Lan Mengqin was feeling especially fortunate right now, thankful for the matchmaking event’s rule that females had to wear a veiled hat. Otherwise, right now, she would really want to find a crack to crawl into.

Whispers evaluating someone could be heard from time to time.

“What kind of fool is this from? A freshman?”

“Yeah! Is he here to kill someone?”

“He’s got to be mentally challenged, right? Not as straightforward as the few who came up before and straight away said they liked someone. What’s he doing at a matchmaking event? No idea who could possibly like him with that show.”

Qian Lei was feeling quite smug at the moment. He spread his gigantic claws on both sides, stood on the tip of one foot on the lotus leaf, performed a golden rooster stance, and shouted loudly, “I’m Qian Lei. Newly joined the Inner Court, specializing in Strength and fierce attacks. I have other mysterious abilities, but ladies, no need to think about me. I’ve already got someone I like. Wahahaha!”

“Junior brother, that’s enough. Are you an actor? Tone it down a bit, or I think even your lover is going to dump you.” Zheng Longjiang couldn’t stand it anymore. Lan Xuanyu was such a clever guy, why did he have a teammate like this? Of course, he recognized Qian Lei, and was also shocked by the aura Qian Lei was releasing, but this was a matchmaking event!

Qian Lei was stunned for a moment before turning his head to look at Zheng Longjiang and murmured, “Senior, are you jealous of my good looks?”

“I…” Zheng Longjiang realized that it was impossible to communicate with certain people.

“Qian Lei. Go back,” Lan Xuanyu’s voice rang in Qian Lei’s ear. He didn’t know what to say anymore.

“Oh.” Qian Lei would follow Lan Xuanyu’s words to a tee. Only then did he retract his golden light, step onto a lotus leaf, and proudly return to his original spot.

Then, he noticed that when he returned, the other lotus leaves around him had all actively moved some distance away from him.

Qian Lei looked at Yuanen Huihui beside him with some surprise. “What’s going on? Are they jealous of me?”

Yuanen Huihui’s mouth twitched, and he turned his head away, “Don’t say you know me, okay? How can you be this obtuse? This is a blind date event, not a frighten-off event. Do you think you’re Tan Xiaodao? Even Tan Xiaodao was telling the girls why he isn’t suitable for most people. What were you just now? Were you trying to eat people or find a wife?”

Qian Lei disagreed, “Isn’t this ‘Love at First Sight’ segment about showing oneself? Of course, I need to showcase all my strength. Was my ‘Golden Rooster Stands Alone’ pose cool or what?”

Yuanen Huihui coughed and said, “Lei, wise up. After everyone has introduced themselves in the first segment, the girls across will decide whether to keep the lamppost at their feet based on their judgment. If no girl keeps the lamppost, it means the guy has been eliminated. Don’t be surprised if all the lampposts are turned off when it’s your turn.”

Qian Lei paused, “Why would they all be turned off? I still have Mengqin, right?”

Yuanen Huihui covered his face and rubbed it, saying, “If I were Mengqin, I’d definitely turn off your lamppost. It’s just too embarrassing! Do you realize how much pressure your behavior would bring to her? I bet the girls are all thinking what kind of woman would choose you, a fool, for a boyfriend.”

Upon hearing that it would bring pressure to Lan Mengqin, Qian Lei suddenly became a bit more clear-headed. He blinked and recalled his behavior just now.

“Really? Did I make Mengqin uncomfortable? I didn’t do anything, did I?”

Yuanen Huihui looked at him with pity, “You’re on your own. Anyways, if Mengqin turns off your lamppost, don’t blame her. You brought this upon yourself. Ask for forgiveness when you get back.”

Qian Lei’s mouth twitched, suddenly feeling a bit of fear. If Lan Mengqin turned off her lamppost for him, it meant that even if they were together in the future, they wouldn’t receive the blessing of Sea God’s Luck. Would he have to participate in this again? He felt like he might have gone a bit too far with his antics!

Seeing Qian Lei falling silent, Yuanen Huihui whispered, “Alright, don’t think too much about it. Mengqin knows you well. Recently, everyone has been cultivating, and there haven’t been many opportunities to show off oneself. It’s normal for your show-off-ish temperament to erupt. Don’t feel too down. Or how about this, pretend to slip and fall into the water? It might save some face.”

“Pah! I won’t fall into the water. I believe in Mengqin,” Qian Lei retorted, his neck stiff.

Yuanen Huihui shrugged, “Okay then, I don’t have high hopes for you. But as your brother, I can only support you now. Even if you get eliminated. I won’t look down on you.”

The introductions of the others were fairly standard, and before long, the self-introduction of the guys in the ‘Love at First Sight’ segment was over.

Shan Wei turned to Zheng Longjiang beside her and said, “Longjiang, did you notice? Many of the people who came to the blind date today have a specific target in mind. Or they are already in a mutual affection.”

Zheng Longjiang nodded, saying, “Yeah! Just like us back then. I wish them all the best, that they may become happily united with their loved ones under the blessing of Sea God’s Luck, and grow old together.”

“Right, the important moment is about to arrive. This is also the time for us girls to exert our power. According to the rules, now that the girls have a preliminary understanding of the guys, we will start with the first guy soon. Any girl interested in him can retain their lamppost for him. Those uninterested can turn off their lamppost.”
