Chapter 3

Is he a beast?

Or worse than a beast?

Yue Yuan gazed at the full moon in the sky, never had he felt so troubled.

"Indeed!"

After a long while, Yue Yuan still felt that he had not made the final choice. He glanced back at the woman in white not far from him and sighed, muttering, "Is it really the hardest question for a man to choose?!"

Though his words were a question, his tone was one of certainty.

The reason was none other than the woman in white beside him.

As a穿越者 (穿越者: time traveler), Yue Yuan had imagined the scenes after his穿越 (穿越: time travel)... perhaps he would be in a place where swords clash, or on the peak of Mount Hua, where the Five Greats debate their strength, or even in the midst of chaos, facing countless life and death battles...

But, Yue Yuan had never imagined that his穿越 (穿越: time travel) would be like this.

Under the full moon.

A girl in white lay across a rose garden, and beside her, a handsome young Taoist was covering her face with a white handkerchief.

Does this scene seem familiar?

Yes, this is where the Quanzhen Sect disciple Yin Zhiping defiled the Ancient Tomb Sect's Little Dragon Maiden.

Just as Yin Zhiping, trembling with excitement, covered Little Dragon Maiden's face with the white handkerchief, Yue Yuan descended from the sky, landing directly on Yin Zhiping. The handsome young Taoist didn't even groan before fainting, becoming a cushion for Yue Yuan's landing.

Thus, at this moment, Yue Yuan replaced Yin Zhiping.

His gaze first scanned the surroundings in surprise, then Yue Yuan's eyes fell on the girl in white lying straight in the rose garden in front of him.

What the heck!

What's going on here?

Yue Yuan, who had just arrived, was first stunned, then shocked. The moment he appeared, a girl was already lying in the rose garden, waiting for him to undress her. This pace was completely beyond his expectations.

Just as he was about to get up to look at the girl in white, Yue Yuan felt a strange sensation beneath him. Looking down, he saw a young Taoist who had been knocked out by him. Glancing at the Taoist beneath him, then turning to look at the girl in white beside him...

"Huh?"

Yue Yuan fell silent.

This scene...

Could it be the scene in "The Return of the Condor Heroes" where Yin Zhiping defiled Little Dragon Maiden...

Getting up to take a closer look, he saw that the girl's face was covered with a white silk handkerchief...

Well, the scene was now clear.

"How could this happen?"

Surveying the scene before him, Yue Yuan was stunned. He never thought he would appear in "The Return of the Condor Heroes" in such a manner. Moreover, this scene clearly disproved his initial assumptions.

After all, Yue Yuan had spent his only chance to choose to穿越 (穿越: time travel) to the martial arts world, all for the ice goddess Little Dragon Maiden. But now, the goddess was clearly already claimed by Yang Guo.

And Yin Zhiping, who was in a position to claim the goddess first, had been knocked out by him, disrupting his plan and leading to his failure.

As for Yue Yuan, he was several steps behind.

However, this was the only time when Little Dragon Maiden's heart was occupied by someone else, and it was the best opportunity to get close to her. Just like many villains say to their beloved women— "If I can't have your heart, I'll have your body."

And the best opportunity was right in front of Yue Yuan.

...

Under the moon.

Yue Yuan ignored the unconscious Yin Zhiping and stood beside Little Dragon Maiden, looking down at the girl whose face was covered by a white handkerchief.

Without seeing her face, just by the white clothes, the well-proportioned figure, and the sweet fragrance that filled his nose, one could not help but imagine the girl's appearance. Even without seeing her face, the white handkerchief covering it sparked endless fantasies.

Even without seeing her in person, she had such charm.

This situation left Yue Yuan momentarily astonished. Although he had read the descriptions in the book, he always thought that a true goddess could not be described in words. But at this moment, facing his ideal goddess, Yue Yuan found himself hesitating.

The timing was perfect; Yin Zhiping was unconscious, and Yang Guo was being taught the Toad Skill by his adoptive father.

This was the best time for Yue Yuan to have intimate contact with the goddess.

But...

After a long while.

Yue Yuan finally made the most important decision of his life. Facing his ideal goddess, he could not bring himself to have any impure thoughts.

Ha!

A derisive laugh, Yue Yuan shook his head, thinking that if this scene were in the city, his choice would surely be ridiculed as being worse than a beast. But Yue Yuan felt that his heart was not that shameless, not that without principles.

Let's greet her first!

Thinking this, Yue Yuan bent down, reaching out to lift the white handkerchief covering Little Dragon Maiden's face.

"Is it Guo'er?"

A voice as clear as a wind chime, as crisp as jade beads falling on a plate, came from the girl's mouth as Yue Yuan's hand reached for the white handkerchief.

"..."

His hand froze as it touched the white handkerchief. Little Dragon Maiden naturally thought that the person covering her face was her disciple, Yang Guo. Although Little Dragon Maiden was currently immobilized by Ouyang Feng, she was willing for Yang Guo to do such a thing to her.

But for Yue Yuan, who had once regarded her as his goddess, this voice made him somewhat resentful.

The reason was none other than a man's jealousy.

Women envy those who are more beautiful than them, and men envy those who have a goddess-like wife.

This is human nature, a common sentiment.

Some people suppress it in their hearts, not showing it, or it is too distant to care about, while others display it openly.

Taking a deep breath, Yue Yuan suppressed the envy that every man should have, and reached out to lift the white handkerchief from Little Dragon Maiden's face.

Instantly, Little Dragon Maiden's vision, which had been obscured by the handkerchief, became clear.

Opening her eyes, bathed in the silver glow of the moon, she saw the man who had lifted the handkerchief in the rose garden.

He was a handsome man.

He wore a blue and white Taoist robe, with his long hair tied up by a Taoist cap.

This Taoist robe was different from the usual Quanzhen Sect robes she had seen. Not only was the color more vibrant, but the material also looked extremely luxurious.

This person... is not Guo'er! Who is he?

For a moment, Little Dragon Maiden was confused.

PS: In the book, what covered Little Dragon Maiden's face was a blue cloth. For a more beautiful scene, it has been changed to the version in the TV series.
