Let's debut, fairy!

Chapter 106 Gender-swapped version of "The Legend of the White Snake"

Outside the South Gate of the city.

Hundreds of people were bustling about.

There are celestial spirits, and also NPCs who come to join the fun.

They wandered around the city wall for nearly half an hour, looking back and forth, as if they wanted to pick at every crack in the brickwork.

But they still couldn't find the "Hundred Heroes List" that Meng Bai mentioned.

Seeing this, Lu Shenyou breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly, "Everyone, I think we've been tricked by that guy surnamed Meng. There's no such thing as a 'Hundred Heroes List,' he clearly made it up."

Xiao Yu immediately sneered, "Lu Shenyou, I think you're unhappy because you didn't make the list!"

"Xiao Yu!"

"What? Others may be afraid of you, but I'm not. Everyone has elders in their family, right?" Xiao Yu raised her chin slightly, her implication quite clear: her family also had righteous gods.

In fact, there are also righteous gods in Yu Changluo's family.

Seeing the two bickering, he said leisurely, "Brother Shenyou, don't argue with her. This Dream Realm has only just begun, and none of us have any reputation yet."

The rankings on that "Hundred Heroes List" must be (pointing to the sky) randomly assigned and unreliable. Otherwise, how come your protector is on the list but you aren't?

“Yes, yes, that makes sense. Brother Changluo is very insightful.” Lu Shenyou agreed.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu chuckled and said sarcastically, "You two can comfort yourselves. This Sword God is going to find someone knowledgeable to ask."

After saying that, she lifted her leg and led a group of people into the city.

Yu Changlu guessed that she was going to find Meng Bai, and immediately led his men to follow her.

"Young master, shall we go?" Lu Wusheng approached Lu Shenyou.

Lu Shenyou didn't answer whether he would go or not. Instead, he looked him up and down and said in a strange tone, "Tsk tsk tsk, Double-Blade Tai Sui, when did you get that nickname? Are you happy to be on the list?"

"There's no such ranking, young master. Those are all made up. I've never given myself the title of Double-Blade Tai Sui," Lu Wusheng quickly explained.

But inside, he was overjoyed again. Double-bladed Tai Sui?

Could this be a title bestowed upon me by the heavens?
Does this mean that my divine title from now on will be Tai Sui Zheng Shen (the God of the Grand Duke Jupiter)?
Just as I was daydreaming, I suddenly received a hard slap across the face.

There was no way around it; the moment this guy thought of the words "Tai Sui Zheng Shen," he burst out laughing.

Lu Shenyou was so angry that he slapped him.

However, since the spirits of the heavens cannot injure each other, Lu Wusheng did not feel much pain.

Meanwhile, inside the Meng residence.

Su Xintang, Yu Xuanchen, and Meng Bai sat in the bedroom discussing something.

"So, you're planning to use the 'Hundred Heroes Ranking' to lead them in circles and waste their time?" Su Xintang asked curiously.

"Yes, this also aligns with our initial plan. More importantly, originally no one knew who was ranked at the top, but now suddenly a 'Hundred Heroes Ranking' has appeared."

Wouldn't those on the list become the target of everyone's criticism? There are still twenty-eight days left in the Dream Realm. What do you think those who aren't on the list will think and do?

"Trying to get rid of those who are famous?" Su Xintang replied.

Meng Bai was about to answer when he heard Yu Xuanchen ask, "Brother Meng, do people really believe in this 'Hundred Heroes Ranking'?"

"Let me ask you, what kind of identity do those Heavenly Spirits have who can jump out at the first opportunity to 'find the bully, act on behalf of Heaven, and make a name for themselves by adopting a nickname'?" Meng Bai countered.

"What is your identity?" Yu Xuanchen asked, puzzled.

"They are either descendants of the righteous gods or descendants of the talisman gods, because only they can gather a group of protectors to follow them in the first instance, and then quickly open up the situation by relying on their superior numbers."

Ordinary people with divine offspring are weak and powerless; how could they dare to cause trouble as soon as they entered? Therefore, those few must be descendants of the divine race, and their movements will definitely be watched by other celestial beings.

From Tianling's perspective, all the disciples of the divine race are paying attention to the "Hundred Heroes Ranking," so how could this ranking be fake? To put it another way, whether you believe it or not is actually not important.

Later on, those spirits who didn't make the list and didn't achieve anything, in their desperation, will definitely try every means to kill those on the list as a last-ditch effort.

Besides, if I were a celestial being, no one would believe me, but I'm an NPC. What bad intentions could an NPC possibly have?

After saying that, Meng Bai took a sip of tea.

Hearing this, Su Xintang, who was standing next to her, had a look of admiration on her face.

That's right,

That's it!
As for Yu Xuanchen, he jumped up and clapped his hands, saying, "Brother Meng, what did I tell you? Your image as the great philanthropist Meng couldn't have come out of thin air."

"..." Meng Bai.

Su Xintang lightly patted Yu Xuanchen's bottom, suppressing a laugh as she scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? Your Brother Meng is a good person."

Then she said to Meng Bai, "Now there's another problem: you don't know all the Heavenly Spirits, so how are you going to rank them?"

“I don’t need to know all the Celestials. Besides, someone will send me a list soon.”

"Who?"

“Qingyang Sword God, Northern Blade King, and... Twin Blade Grand Duke, or someone else.” Meng Bai took another sip of tea and continued, “I’ll handle this matter. You don’t need to worry about it. You and Achen can focus on your own work.”

What they had to do was very simple.

After Meng Bai finishes his work, Su Xintang will disguise herself as a man and beg Meng Bai to release Yu Xuanchen in front of the people on the street.

The two sisters will be performing a gender-swapped version of "The Legend of the White Snake." Su Xintang will play a male snake spirit repaying a debt of gratitude, while Yu Xuanchen will play a female mortal who saved her in a past life. Meng Bai will play a special kind of "Fahai."

This is somewhat different from their original plan, but the general direction is the same.

The three of them chatted for a while longer.

A knock sounded at the door: "My lord, the Sword God of Qingyang requests an audience."

"Please invite her to the front hall," Meng Bai instructed, then said to the two women, "You two sisters chat for a while, I'll go and meet them."

After saying that, he got up and left.

Looking at the closed door, Su Xintang turned her gaze to Yu Xuanchen's face.

As she watched, she couldn't help but reach out and rub her face, then hugged her tightly and said with a smile, "That's so nice."

"Hehe~~" Yu Xuanchen chuckled and snuggled into Su Xintang's arms.

As she rubbed against him, she suddenly raised her head and said, "Sister, you're so old, why are you dressed as a boy?"

"Just borrow some incense from your brother Meng and use [Acting Skills] to change it. [Acting Skills] is incredibly effective at changing the appearance of spirits."

"Then could you change me too?"

"why?"

Yu Xuanchen was a little embarrassed, so he leaned close to Su Xintang's ear and whispered a few words. Upon hearing this, Su Xintang's eyes widened, and her face grew increasingly red.

Meanwhile, Meng Bai, on the other side, naturally had no idea what the two sisters were talking about.

At this moment, the front hall was filled with distinguished guests, young and old alike.

As soon as Meng Bai came out, everyone rushed forward, chattering and making Meng Bai's head spin.

"Stop!" Meng Bai shouted, then picked at his ear. "I understand what you all mean. You think I'm lying to you?"

"Isn't that so?" Lu Shenyou scoffed. "You said there's a list of 100 heroes outside the South Gate, where is it?!"

Meng Bai glanced at him, deliberately ignoring him.

Turning his head, he began to bow to Xiao Yu, Lu Wusheng, and Yu Changluo in order of their ranking, saying, "Gentlemen, even if I had the greatest courage, I would not dare to deceive you."

Good heavens, this action made Lu Wusheng blush with delight.

If he hadn't retained a sliver of reason, he probably would have taken that step forward.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "We certainly trust Brother Meng's character, but we really haven't found the list. If it's convenient for you, Brother Meng..."

"Since the Sword God of Qingyang has spoken, how about I follow you all to the outside of the city?"

"Okay!" Xiao Yu said, gesturing for him to proceed.

Meng Bai did not step forward, but instead invited everyone out in order once again.

Then, he pretended to be friendly and chatted with the heroes, strolling leisurely down the street, allowing the villagers to gather around and watch.

During this time, he subtly probed and activated the [Record] skill, memorizing the names and appearances of everyone he had spoken to.

They are all ordinary people, and the information they record is not complicated, so the amount of incense needed is not much, just a few strands per person.

After walking for about 15 minutes, the group finally reached the south gate of the city.

"Where's the list?" As soon as he left the city, Lu Shenyou immediately questioned.

Seeing this, Meng Bai quickly glanced around and said casually, "It's still ahead, right by that mountain."

So he led the group forward a little further, until they finally reached a secluded cliff edge.

Then he pointed to the cliff and said, "This is the 'Hundred Heroes List'. You see, this list is quite magical. The names on it keep changing. I suspect it is not an ordinary thing. It is probably left behind by the gods."

The Hegu people have deities, so it's not surprising that a mortal like him would mention gods.

Upon hearing his words, everyone quickly began to observe him closely.

But no matter how they looked at it, they couldn't see anything unusual.

Finally, one of the hot-tempered guys couldn't hold back any longer and yelled, "You, surnamed Meng, are you playing us for fools!"

"Huh?" Meng Bai feigned confusion.

"Where is your name on this? You villain, you've been playing us for fools. Today, this is where you'll die!" With that, one of them drew his sword with a clang, ready to attack.

Meng Bai quickly took a few steps back and leaned against the cliff wall, and the incense sticks went up the cliff wall.

But on the surface, he looked at the menacing crowd with a look of terror and said, "No, how could you not see it? The names are clearly written on it, the three big characters 'Hundred Heroes Ranking'. Can't you see them?"

He offered a flustered explanation.

Everyone thought he was just being stubborn, but just as one of them was about to make a move, a sound came from the cliff.

Meng Bai pretended not to hear the noise and continued to explain, which made everyone ignore him and focus on the cliff face.

With a rumbling sound, three large characters appeared stroke by stroke on the cliff face: "Hundred Heroes Ranking".

Of course, there are only these three words on it.

It's impossible for Meng Bai to have his name engraved on it; that would be too easy to expose the deception and wouldn't be convenient to do.
