Chapter 357: You Can Too

Yi Lian's first reaction was Te Lei Xi; that person, even while ill, would fully fit this description—her charm has indeed transcended gender, and it's quite crazy.

She stood in place, silent for two seconds, as if recalling something; after a brief hesitation she said,

"An unusually charming person, besides Te Lei Xi, I have indeed seen another, but she left the Black Death quickly."

"She has flaming red hair, like blazing fire, very flamboyant; she also likes to wear all red clothing, and seems to possess powerful fire abilities."

That hunter who leapt onto the Witch Path. Yi Lian's description instantly made Lei Ke Dun think of that witch whose Conqueror trait he had taken.

"Is she the only one?" Lei Ke Dun asked again to confirm.

"The only one I've seen is this one."

Yi Lian answered with a not very good expression.

Lei Ke Dun nodded lightly; he didn't notice any tendency to lie, and before Yi Lian turned to leave he spoke again:

"Te Lei Xi really likes you; won't you consider her? As long as one of you reaches Sequence Four of the Hunter Path, you can be together without obstacles."

Yi Lian's complexion flushed red then turned pale, pale then red, feeling both embarrassed and angry.

"You're really trying to match Miss Hunter with Mr. Assassin, huh? Be a human!" Beside the carriage, the Ke Lai En who had just stepped out of the carriage almost couldn't maintain Ger Man Spalo's image.

"What do you mean!" Yi Lian, both shy and angry, asked.

She had already thrown the fact that the other was a powerful extraordinary being out of her mind.

Lei Ke Dun didn't mind her tone, and laughed lightly, saying:

"When the Hunter Path reaches Sequence Four, only males exist; if a female reaches this sequence, she will be forced to become male."

Females are forced to become male. Yi Lian was stunned; following his words, an image of herself after Sequence Four pinning Te Lei Xi beneath her subconsciously flashed in her mind. She suddenly shook her head hard, as if trying to shake out the dirty thought.

"Lady, this behavior shows you're moved by his earlier proposal," Ke Lai En silently muttered in his mind, then sighed quietly: "The witch's charm is truly huge!"

Beside them, Daniz subconsciously touched his chest with both hands, and in his mind he exhaled a sigh: "Good, I'm originally male. Wait! Why am I touching my chest? Doesn't that make me look perverted?" Daniz was about to glance around to see if anyone had noticed his action, when he heard Tu Ba Ge's voice that made him grit his teeth:

"If you want to become a woman, you can drink the witch path's witch elixir; after all, these two paths can be interchanged."

"Thanks, I really don't want to become a woman, I still need to... ship"

Daniz immediately covered his mouth, swallowing the remaining words.

Irene looked surprised at the Tu Ba Ge in front of Lei Kedun, thinking that the rabbit's owner had deliberately dressed it up like that; nobles treating pets as humans wasn't all that uncommon.

Yi Lian, with a surprised face, looked at the Tu Ba Ge in front of Lei Ke Dun; she had thought the rabbit's owner deliberately dressed it like that—nobles treating pets as humans is not an uncommon thing.

Lei Ke Dun, keeping a faint smile, said softly: "Aren't you curious that the Witch Path can turn men into women? Te Lei Xi happens to be a witch!"

"She is a woman. A real woman, I... know."

Yi Lian answered somewhat urgently, her voice choppy, losing confidence as she spoke.

Her voice paused; Yi Lian's eyes, full of anger yet not daring to show it too clearly, glanced at Lei Ke Dun and Ke Lai En. She grabbed her suitcase, turned quickly, and ran toward the nearby docked ship.

Ke Lai En withdrew his gaze from Yi Lian, glanced at Lei Ke Dun beside him, and silently muttered in his mind: "This guy, when did he become so twisted?" Lei Ke Dun retracted his sight, casually surveyed Ke Lai En and said:

"You just let her go like that; are you planning to cross-dress to lure Te Lei Xi?"

"." Ke Lai En kept Ger Man Spalo's expressionless face, glanced at Lei Ke Dun, and slightly clenched his left hand behind his back.

A moment later, Ke Lai En's voice was low, as if lightly biting his teeth, and he said: "You could too."

"I can't. I can change my appearance and temperament, but I cannot perform as freely as the Faceless."

Lei Ke Dun gently shook his head, seriously offering an explanation.

Moreover, witches are also adept at divination; before I take such actions, they might already trigger their spiritual intuition, thereby setting traps.

Faceless, is that the sequence name where Ger Man Spalo belongs? No, it might also be his glove. Daniz subconsciously glanced at Ke Lai En's left palm; although it seemed empty, Daniz had seen the changes when Ke Lai En used that glove.

Lei Ke Dun's gaze fell on Daniz, and amid his puzzled look he said:

"I'll be leaving Baiyam in two days; do you want to return to the Golden Dream? I can take you back with me."

Finally I can get rid of this guy, Geerman·Sipaluo; being together with this crazy guy, I have to worry every day that he might at some point run out of money and sell me off.

Finally I can get rid of that Ger Man Spalo guy; staying with this crazy guy, I worry every day whether he'll run out of money and cash me in.

Kelaisen spoke in an icy tone, adding a sentence.

"Why." Daniz angrily turned his head, facing Geerman·Sipaluo's icy, expressionless face, his tone quickly weakening.

"Why?" Daniz, angry, turned his head, faced Ger Man Spalo's cold expressionless face, and his tone quickly softened.

Ke Lai En didn't answer Daniz, turned back into the carriage, and before closing the door, said calmly: "Go to Pier No. 6 at the port."

"Alright." Daniz almost reflexively responded, and after speaking he realized he was stunned for a moment. Damn! How did I become so proficient?

Daniz's carriage slowly drove away from him; Lei Ke Dun looked down at the curious Tu Ba Ge peeking at the carriage and said: "Let's go, he doesn't want us to see his cross-dressed look; it'd be a social death."

"What is a social death?"

Tu Ba Ge asked curiously.

"It means thinking you've done something so embarrassing in your social circle that you can't lift your head."

Lei Ke Dun chuckled lightly, explaining.

Tu Ba Ge nodded as if half-understanding; as a rabbit, it has never been troubled by this.

It stretched out a paw, rubbing its fluffy chin for a while, then, a bit conflicted, turned its head and asked: "Boss, where are we heading next? Can we still use the 'gate'? I don't want spirit realm traversal."

Lei Ke Dun chuckled, slightly bent over and rubbed the back of Tu Ba Ge's head under its hat.

"Let's go watch Ke Lai En's cross-dressing. The 'gate' I use and spirit realm traversal aren't fundamentally different; why do you only get dizzy from spirit realm traversal? After all, you're a Sequence Seven rabbit."

Lei Ke Dun didn't reply; he straightened his back, raised his right hand, and a slowly rotating cluster of Star Sand appeared in his palm.

One star after another materialized, flashing ahead of him, outlining layered gate sigils.

The starlight was dense and dazzling, scattering beam after beam, swiftly forming a deep, dark gate that connected to the depths of the spirit realm.

Tu Ba Ge saw the star‑light gate take shape, hopped and ran straight in.
