Chapter 45: The Terrifying Crystal Powder
A benevolent… female Bodhisattva?
Master Crystal’s heart shook violently.
It was as if a supreme radiance was slowly rising in his heart.
As he looked at the young man before him, admiration gradually filled his gaze.
In the realm of single-minded devotion… this kid’s state of mind surpassed his by leaps and bounds!
“Truly, a whipped dog produces a talented youth!”
Master Crystal’s expression was complex and regretful, and in the end, he could only deeply pat Young Master Sang’s shoulder.
“Sigh. If you weren’t a Demon Cultivator, I would definitely want to share a drink with you and have a good chat about our admiration and love for Little Colorful Xia.”
“What a pity…”
“Good and evil cannot coexist,” a hint of sorrow flashed in his aging eyes, “but I still have to kill you.”
Yet there was not a trace of fear in Young Master Sang’s eyes.
“No problem.”
He calmly knelt on the ground, turning his head to kneel again before Little Colorful Xia’s portrait.
“To have a true friend in life, it’s no problem to die after hearing the morning bells.”
“After I die, I hope brother here continues to promote the single-minded devotion path and spread the blessings of Bodhisattva Colorful Xia to more dark and rotten homebody rats like us.”
Master Crystal immediately stood in respect, stepping back and bowing deeply.
“Brother, I will remember this in my heart!”
“Little brother! Safe travels!”
With that, he wore a face of sorrow, almost breaking into tears as he prepared to strike down Young Master Sang.
“Hold on!”
Suddenly, Young Master Sang reached out to stop him.
“Before I die, I have one last wish unfulfilled.”
He said earnestly: “I haven’t watched this month’s VIP exclusive photoshoot video of Little Colorful Xia.”
“Let me finish watching it before I calmly meet my end.”
VIP exclusive photoshoot video?
Master Crystal’s face revealed a hint of confusion.
Even he considered himself a rabid fan of Little Colorful Xia.
He bought every single merchandise and photo booklet released by the Zanghong Building without exception.
He even went so far as to borrow money from junior sisters and covertly embezzle funds from the sect.
To support Little Colorful Xia, he had even given hefty rewards of spirit stones.
He was one of the prominent users on her popularity support list.
But this so-called VIP exclusive photoshoot video?
He had never even heard of it.
“Little brother, you’ve got to be kidding me. When has Little Colorful Xia ever released such a VIP photoshoot video?”
Seeing Master Crystal’s bewildered expression, Young Master Sang seemed to grow sympathetic.
“Don’t blame brother.”
“This VIP exclusive photoshoot video is a benefit that only specific VIP users of the Zanghong Building can enjoy.”
“Zanghong Building’s VIPs are extremely rare; it’s not something you can get just by being rich.”
“Only specific sect families who are both wealthy and influential are chosen for this privilege.”
Master Crystal hesitated for a long time and then suspiciously asked, “Then how did you get it?”
“Alas, to be honest.”
Young Master Sang sighed: “My family is indeed a first-rate family, but unfortunately, I’m too incompetent.”
“In the end, my family chose my cousin to be the heir, and I fell into despair, descending into the demon path.”
“But my cousin is a good person. He said as long as I withdraw from the competition, he would allow me to secretly enjoy all the privileges of the family.”
“This VIP account was borrowed from my cousin.”
So it turns out.
This kid is actually a rich second generation?
Master Crystal hesitated for a moment, his interest piqued as he saw Young Master Sang take out the communication device.
“Um… Little brother…”
Young Master Sang looked up, immediately understanding: “Brother, how could I enjoy a good thing all by myself?”
“Come, let’s watch together.”
Master Crystal was overjoyed, happily scooting over as the two leaned in to watch the screen on the communication device.
Moments later, Young Master Sang clicked on a video.
Upon seeing the video, Master Crystal’s expression changed again.
“This… this is…”
“N-No way.”
“This is absolutely impossible! My Little Colorful Xia, she, she would never shoot such a photoshoot video!”
The reason Master Crystal was losing his mind was that at this moment, the ethereal fairy in the video was wearing revealing and sensual lingerie, dancing seductively in a provocative manner.
The elegance she usually displayed had vanished, replaced by the demeanor of a flirtatious smoky woman.
Moreover, Little Colorful Xia’s face was adorned with a coy and affectionate springtime expression, dancing as if she were enticing the viewer on screen.
“No… you must be lying to me…”
Master Crystal’s eyes became glazed over as he muttered to himself: “My Little Colorful Xia cannot be like this…”
“She is an immaculate goddess descended to the world, embodying all that is pure and sacred.”
“She would never sully herself by behaving in such a vulgar manner towards men!”
“You must be lying to me! Trying to disrupt my mind of the path! I’ve collected all of Little Colorful Xia’s merchandise; there’s no such thing…”
Seeing him so agitated, Young Master Sang earnestly patted his shoulder.
“Brother.”
“Don’t you know there’s something called…”
“…the outer web?”
Master Crystal’s gaze froze.
In fact, after being a devoted fan of Little Colorful Xia for so long, he had come across various malicious slanders against her.
Those people said that while Little Colorful Xia appeared aloof and celestial in front of fans, her photo collections were all tightly wrapped with a hint of exposure.
But in some exclusive channels not aimed at fans, she appeared in an entirely different seductive and revealing manner.
To this, Master Crystal had previously dismissed it, passionately defending Little Colorful Xia against those haters.
But now, watching the video that shook his very soul.
Master Crystal felt as if his world had collapsed.
“What gets posted inside the wall and outside the wall isn’t the same.”
Young Master Sang said thoughtfully: “The goddess you see as pure and sacred is, in the eyes of wealthy men, a plaything for their pleasure. Perhaps while she graciously thanks you for your gifts, she’s also fervently entertaining an old man…”
“Shut up! Don’t say anymore!”
Master Crystal suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, glaring fiercely: “Y-You’re a believer of Little Colorful Xia too, how can you say such…”
“I truly am.”
Young Master Sang said with all sincerity: “She clearly has the opportunity to rely on rich sponsors, yet she’s willing to bestow her blessings upon us poor broke losers.”
“Doesn’t that make her even more of a living bodhisattva who helps everyone?”
Master Crystal was so choked up he couldn’t speak further.
But he couldn’t think of any rebuttal to counter what the other said.
After a brief moment of chaos, confusion returned to Master Crystal’s eyes.
“It’s… true…”
“My Little Colorful Xia wouldn’t be at fault, the fault lies with this world…”
“You’re right, Little Colorful Xia is the goddess who helps everyone; she must have her reasons, and the truth cannot be like this…”
Hearing his murmuring, Young Master Sang was momentarily stunned.
Turns out the meaning behind the name “Crystal” was this.
