Wen Renbai had indeed heard the name of the Startling Swan Fairy, but he'd never seen her in person.
It is said that the Startling Swan Fairy was as beautiful as a goddess. Many who wished to see her, even if willing to spend a fortune, could not guarantee a meeting. Given his impoverished state, he feared he might never glimpse the true face of the Startling Swan Fairy in this lifetime.
As a Taoist, Wen Renbai was accustomed to purity and a lack of desire; truth be told, he wasn't particularly interested in beauty. However, curiosity is a trait all people share.
He, too, wondered what the divinely reputed fairy actually looked like.
So, he couldn't help but take a closer look at Helan Lian's face.
Helan Lian, feeling the weight of his gaze, grew even stiffer, and the thought of throttling Mingshu crossed his mind!
Was this girl doing this on purpose?
