Chapter 18 - Encountering the Snake Race Saint Son, Becoming a Snake-Catching Daoist!

Fang Chen's mouth twitched after hearing that.

This little vixen is really hard to deal with.

"Are you even considering my feelings by doing this?"

"Don't you see all those murderous gazes directed at me?"

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Fang Chen, filled with killing intent.

Many people even brandished their divine weapons, ready to strike at any moment.

"Young friend, you're angering the crowd with this."

"Kill this True Person of Snow Transformation, and reclaim the Saintess!"

"Brat, come and get it! Either you die, or I die today!"

"I will protect the Saintess with my life!"

These people's eyes were filled with killing intent, their gazes seemingly about to burst into flames.

Men, I can tolerate. But how can women be like this too!

Fang Chen grumbled helplessly in his heart.

This Hua Mengying's charm was truly strong, she was universally adored!

"No hugs!"

Fang Chen looked at Hua Mengying and said seriously, "Miss Mengying, men and women shouldn't touch. You should walk by yourself."

"Besides, I see you're in pretty good shape. You should be able to kill a few妖兽."

What's the point of hugging!

As a straight man, there's no way he'd do something like that.

"This man is so cheap!"

Hua Mengying couldn't help but curse in her heart.

She had just been calling him "little妖精" and saying she liked him, and now he was so serious and rejecting her.

As expected, men are the most hypocritical things in this world.

However, Hua Mengying didn't continue. She was just acting cute a moment ago.

And she also knew that continuing like this would only displease Fang Chen.

Some things were best done in moderation; she saw that it was enough and would stop.

The person in charge from the Godstone Pavilion walked over and said, "Miss Mengying, True Person Huaxue, the auction on the upper floor has already begun. Are the two of you interested?"

The Godstone Pavilion would hold a Godstone auction every year, and the Godstones inside were all carefully selected by the Godstone Pavilion.

There were usually good things among these Godstones, but a very small number were duds, containing nothing.

Several times, they had unearthed Divine Gold and Divine Jade, and many other treasures. Once, they even unearthed an Immortality Elixir, which caused many major powers to scramble for it.

However, not everyone was qualified to enter such an auction; one needed sufficient status and position.

Originally, Fang Chen was not qualified, but seeing Hua Mengying trying so hard to please Fang Chen...

Moreover, the fact that Fang Chen wasn't afraid of Xue Yunxiao at all confirmed his identity.

Without any backing, how could anyone dare to offend Xue Yunxiao, let alone attack him?

Hua Mengying didn't speak, but instead looked at Fang Chen.

She had come here because Moonlit Palace had a collaboration with the Snow Clan, and she had accompanied Xue Yunxiao.

Now that Xue Yunxiao had been chased away, and she knew Fang Chen's feelings, and didn't reject them, she left the decision up to Fang Chen.

Seeing this, the person in charge of the Godstone Pavilion was even more certain that Fang Chen's identity was not simple.

Don't let Hua Mengying's appearance fool you; it was just a superficial facade.

Many people knew that no one could make Hua Mengying act like this, and they couldn't even get close enough to speak to her. This man was an exception.

"Then let's go take a look," Fang Chen said, nodding.

Originally, he had come to test the waters at the Godstone Pavilion.

Since he was already here, how could he possibly miss it?

On the upper floors of the Godstone Pavilion, there was a world of its own, filled with countless treasures. Some items, if placed outside, would be fought over by countless people.

However, in the center of the plaza, there were ten or so Godstones placed there, each with a different shape.

Some were hundreds of meters tall, like small mountains, while others were only the size of a fist.

But these Godstones were all wrapped in special materials, and these materials could block the detection of divine sense.

Even if one's cultivation reached the Saint Realm, they would be unable to use their divine sense to detect what was inside.

When Fang Chen arrived here, many people had already gathered inside.

However, these people weren't simple; many were representatives of major powers.

Hua Mengying's arrival attracted many glances, especially since she was so close to Fang Chen, even holding his arm.

"Rumor has it that Fairy Hua seems unrestrained, but is actually aloof and always keeps people at arm's length. It seems this isn't true."

Someone said sarcastically.

The person who spoke was a young man in white, with white hair and extremely pale skin.

But unlike Hua Mengying's skin, his was deathly pale, like a corpse, and looked shocking.

His eyes were also icy cold, without a trace of emotion.

"I just depend on the person I like."

Hua Mengying smiled, unconcerned. "Although the Moonlit Palace doesn't have a good reputation, it's not a place of ill repute."

"Besides, Saint Son of the Snake Race, don't hold a grudge against me just because I rejected you in the past."

If it were before, Hua Mengying would have just endured such sarcasm, pretending not to hear it. After all, the other party's status was high.

The Saint Son of the Snake Race was the descendant of the ancient Snake Race of the demon race.

His status was extremely high, not inferior to the Saint Sons of those great holy lands.

If she had encountered such a figure before, Hua Mengying would only have forced a smile and dealt with him.

But now it was different. She had Fang Chen by her side, and she didn't care who the other party was.

Moreover, Fang Chen's status was not inferior to the other party's, and even surpassed him.

"Heh, looking at the Flower Fairy, it seems she's found a good backer," the Snake Race Saint Son sneered, his tone laced with a hint of anger.

His gaze then turned to Fang Chen, and a powerful pressure emanated from him, as if to give Fang Chen a display of his power.

Hua Mengying's beauty was unparalleled, and she had many admirers, the Snake Race Saint Son being one of them.

However, like the other admirers, he had been rejected by Hua Mengying.

Yet, this Saint Son's status was not low, so Hua Mengying still had to give him some face.

"Flower Fairy, it seems your vision isn't very good!"

"You actually chose such a waste!"

Thinking about how he had been rejected by Hua Mengying in the past, and then seeing her so close to Fang Chen, the Snake Race Saint Son felt a surge of anger.

Especially seeing that the other party seemed to have no background, which made the Snake Race Saint Son even angrier.

"Fairy Hua, who is this young master? Why don't you introduce him to us?"

The speaker was a young man.

He was the Second Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This Second Prince had heaven-defying talent and was a rare cultivation genius.

He was now very curious about Fang Chen's identity.

He knew how proud Hua Mengying was; those geniuses simply couldn't catch her eye. Yet, she was so intimate with the young man in front of him, so who wouldn't be curious?

"A rogue cultivator, nicknamed the Snake-Catching Daoist!"

"My parents weren't educated back then, and since our family has been catching snakes in the mountains for generations, they gave me this name," Fang Chen said with a simple expression.

Hearing this, the corners of the mouths of the people around them were clearly twitching.

Especially the person in charge of the Godstone Pavilion, who couldn't help but look at Fang Chen.
