Every year, an endless supply of goods and various precious items are brought to the nightclub, including exotic beauties like Xiao Ya and Xiao Chu, who possess rare skin and hair colors.
When Yue Jinghua first t the sisters Xiao Ya, she also noticed their hair color, blonde and blue-eyed, which is very similar to modern Scandinavians, obviously not Shangguo people.
Every child who enters the nightclub soon has their brain washed by a strange Dark Skill according to their talents, erasing their past mories. Then, they undergo a series of trainings: females sharpen their etiquette, speech, appearance, and charm techniques, while males learn Dark Techniques and killing skills.
Because the sisters Xiao Ya showed talent in pharmacology and were quite tactful, they were assigned to Lady Yao. Lady Yao was usually kind to them, but in the end, for an Ancient Xuan Beast Egg, she sent them away.
Xiao Ya's unusual appearance was precisely what worried Hongling and Shalman.
Their sympathies aligned with Xiao Ya, being won themselves, but her distinctive looks were just too conspicuous.
Noticing the other two won in the room eyeing her, Xiao Ya explained, "If you worry about my appearance, I can alter it, even my figure, and keep it all concealed."
Having said that, she borrowed a set of clothes from Yue Jinghua, and then took several common herbs; the Jingxin Courtyard's alchemy room had so and they were easy to find.
Xiao Ya's special talent was certainly an eye-opener for Yue Jinghua and the others. After washing and dressing, Xiao Ya reappeared before them, transford into an ordinary-looking, slightly overweight woman in her twenties.
Shalman and Hongling covered their mouths, faces filled with disbelief.
Her hair, now dark brown, and even her rare green eyes had turned brown; her figure was no longer slim but rather short and plump.
Her hair was bleached with Fo-Ti herb, and her body size was adjusted with tight wrappings, but the eyes—how were they changed?
"Could it be that Dragon Road also has contact lenses?" Yue Jinghua was astonished, scrutinizing Xiao Ya up and down, especially her eyes.
Rubbing her eyes gently, Xiao Ya rolled out two thin brown pieces, "Invisible? Are you talking about these Peacock Cicada wings, master?"
The Peacock Cicada is a rare Xuan Insect, shedding a pair of wings with each growth phase, each ti changing color.
Its wings, steeped in dicinal liquids, beca soft and could be worn in the eyes, allowing the eyes to change to different colors.
"About the Peacock Cicada, my sister discovered it. Even Lady Yao doesn't know. It was about three years ago, by chance my sister got a pair of Peacock Cicadas, and after raising them, she discovered the amazing use of their wings," Xiao Ya said and sighed softly, pulling out a small box she kept close.
Inside, indeed, there were several pairs of cicada wings, red, green, and even golden, reminiscent in shape of modern-day contact lenses.
Among Dark Martial Artists, there are those skilled in Dark Illusion Techniques, but such skills are useless against the high Dark Power of a Dark Practitioner. Thus, physical disguise has beco the most covert thod of altering one's appearance.
"Where did you learn this extraordinary skill?" Yue Jinghua asked in surprise.
"I don't rember, it seems I've known how to do it since I was young," Xiao Ya shook her head.
"So it's said, Miss Xiao Ya is also adept at the Disguise Technique. Even Lady Yao couldn't recognize you after the change," Hongling rejoiced, suddenly understanding the purpose of her mistress saving Xiao Ya.
When Yue Jinghua had first brought Xiao Ya to them, Hongling didn't say it but had so reservations in her heart.
It wasn't out of fear that the mistress's trust in Xiao Ya would diminish her own status in Jingxin Courtyard, but the current state of Jingxin Courtyard was precarious.
Just in the last letter ho, Lie Rou, upon hearing her daughter Yue Jinghua's wishes, told the eldest son to stop sending money here.
In the past month, Lie Changshun, angered by Lie ng's issues, cut off the last bit of Yue Jinghua's salary for Jingxin Courtyard.
Another person was an additional burden.
But now it seed that the mistress saving Xiao Ya was not rely out of generous kindness. She obviously had her intentions.
Although the sisters Xiao Chu had a pitiable background, there were many pitiable people in the world. The mistress's temperant was unpredictable. There had to be a reason that prompted her to rescue them.
Now seeing Xiao Ya's talents, Yue Jinghua had noticed this when they first t.
The nightclub had many outstanding individuals, but it was rare to find soone like Xiao Ya, who was versatile, knew when to advance or retreat, and understood the art of disguise. She really hit the jackpot this ti.
And next to Yue Jinghua, such talent was in demand. The amiable Lady, the naive young master Yue Chen, along with the newcor Miss Shalman and herself with poor Dark Skill, Hongling weighed in her heart; it was a pipe dream for her mistress and Lady to stand firm in Lie Family Mansion.
Hongling didn't realize that what Yue Jinghua wanted was not to stand firm in Lie Family Mansion, on the contrary, her ambitions were more significant—she aid to take back Lie Family Mansion.
"Xiao Ya, to avoid attention, your na will be Hong Yao from now on. The running of the pharmacy will be left to Hongling and you. Everyone rember, to live well and comfortably in this world, one must rise above others, be the worst of the worst, only then can one survive," Yue Jinghua's impassioned tone had all three young won in the room excited, voicing their agreent in unison.
Just then, a faint rustling of clothes scraping was heard outside the window.
"Who's there?" Hongling demanded sternly, her long bow in hand, aid at the bushes.
The small silhouette lingering in the bushes hesitated, then reluctantly stepped out.
Upon recognizing the newcor, Hongling said in a lost voice, "Little lord?"
The young master Yue Chen looked pitiful, his hair full of grass clippings, staring at the four "wicked won" inside the room.
