Chapter 1074 – 1074 She’s Really Anna

1074 She’s Really Anna

Naris could tell that Yu Huang’s words were sincere, so her attitude towards Yu Huang became friendlier.

Naris asked Yu Huang again, “Why did he give you a mask? Could it be that you…” Naris hesitated before saying, “Could it be that your face was injured before? ”

“My face got burned,” Yu Huang said. “A fire caused by true fire disfigured my face. In the past, I was very ugly.”

Yu Huang looked at Naris gently and said, “I can understand the feeling of wanting to hide one’s flaws and being afraid of being discovered, but yearning to be accepted. Naris, I can empathize with you. If you want, you can tell me your secret. I promise that I will never tell anyone your secret.”

!!

Hearing this, Naris’ attitude softened. Her gaze gradually became hesitant.

Naris’ heart raced. She was tempted by Yu Huang’s words.

Naris wanted to find someone who could understand her suffering and be friends with her. However, she was afraid that Yu Huang would be afraid of her and avoid her after knowing her flaws.

“I…” Naris opened her mouth to say something, but instantly lost all her courage.

Naris twisted her hands together and said in embarrassment, “I’m a little weak. I’m afraid that you’ll be afraid of me and disgusted by me when you see my true appearance.”

Seeing that Naris was secretive about her flaws, Yu Huang sighed to herself. For a moment, she didn’t know how to dissuade Naris.

Yu Huang took off her phoenix mask and put it away carefully. Then, she lowered her head and said to Naris, “I can understand. In that case, let’s take it slow.”

Naris didn’t respond.

Yu Huang didn’t want Naris to think that she was an aggressive person.

Afraid that she would burden Naris, Yu Huang decided to return to her room to rest first. She would find a chance to understand more about Naris’ situation next time.

However, just as Yu Huang took a step forward, her wrist was grabbed by Naris.

“… Don’t go.” Naris tightened her grip.

Yu Huang stopped and lowered her head to look at her wrist that was grabbed. Her gaze looked up and landed on Naris’ face as she asked her, “What else?”

Naris smiled bitterly and said, “Everyone on this street knows about my physical condition. Sooner or later, you will find out about my condition from others. Instead of that, why don’t you let me show you myself?”

Naris let go of Yu Huang’s hand and pressed down on her mask.

Before taking off her mask, Naris said, “My face is very ugly, so if you see it, you might be frightened. I’m sorry.”

With that, Naris lowered the hood of her dress and personally untied the rope behind her head.

She lowered her head and took off her mask without hesitation.

Naris took a deep breath and slowly raised her head to reveal her appearance.

What kind of face was that?!

The skin above her nose was very fair and smooth, and her round almond-shaped eyes were beautiful and charming. However, under those eyes, there was no nose, only two ugly and scary nose holes.

Below her nose, her skin was no longer smooth. Instead, it was covered in ice-blue dragon scales.

The dragon scales extended all the way to Naris’ neck. They were densely connected. Those with trypophobia would probably faint at the sight.

Naris’ lips were also very strange. The upper half was human lips, but the lower half was hard wood-patterned lips.

It was like…

It was like the lips of a demon beast.

With beautiful almond-shaped eyes, noseless nostrils, and a mouth that looked like a human’s but wasn’t a human’s, she was like a beast yet wasn’t a beast either. When these features were combined on the same face, it created an extremely stimulating visual impact.

This was no longer just a ‘flaw’.

Even though Yu Huang was mentally prepared, when she really saw Naris’ face, she was still so frightened that her face turned pale.

Naris noticed that Yu Huang’s pupils were quivering, so she knew that Yu Huang was frightened by her appearance.

She quickly put on her lace veil.

After putting on the veil, Naris looked like she had a nose.

Presumably, she had installed the outline of a fake nose on the lace veil.

“I’m sorry I scared you.” Naris smiled bitterly and said, “In the past, a child on the street was curious about what I looked like, so he deliberately hid in the small courtyard to peek at me. After discovering my true appearance, he was so frightened that he fell seriously ill.”

The child’s parents were angry and anxious.

Although their child was in the wrong and should not have sneaked into Naris’s small courtyard to peek at her, Naris had frightened the child so much that he became delirious, had nightmares, lost more than ten pounds, and almost lost his life. His parents still hated Naris for it.

Under the publicization of his parents, almost everyone on the street knew that the tavern owner’s daughter was a monster with no nose and blue dragon scales all over her body.

From then on, Naris never went out again.

Even though she was already dressed very conservatively and was no longer scary, she still didn’t dare to go out.

Because no matter how well she disguised herself, she still couldn’t hide the fact that she was a monster.

When Naris saw Yu Huang’s shocked and stunned expression, she felt both pained and vexed.

She knew that her appearance was scary, so why did she show it to Yu Huang?

Naris turned to leave.

She decided not to go out for the next month. She was afraid that Yu Huang would tell her companions about her. She was afraid that once she went out, she would receive mocking, afraid, or pitying gazes from Yu Huang and her companions.

Naris was about to take two to three steps towards the door when her petite body was suddenly hugged from behind.

Naris’s eyes widened.

Naris lowered her eyes and looked at Yu Huang’s hands that were wrapped around her body. Her expression changed a few times before she asked in shock, “What… are you doing?”

She had never been hugged so hard before, so she felt terrified.

Yu Huang pressed Naris into her arms forcefully. Then, she placed her head on Naris’s shoulder, and tears fell on Naris’s body, drenching her velvet dress.

“An…” Yu Huang almost blurted out Anna’s name.

But she stopped herself in time.

“Naris.” Yu Huang told Naris with the most serious attitude, “Naris, I will investigate the real reason for your disfigurement. I will definitely help you treat your body. Believe me!”

Naris could sense Yu Huang’s seriousness.

However, she found it strange and even baffling.

This woman called Yu Huang was really strange.

They were clearly unfamiliar with each other, and tonight was the first time they had met.

Why did Yu Huang act like she cared a lot about her?

Besides, there was something fishy about Yu Huang’s eagerness to know about her disfigurement.

After Yu Huang saw her true appearance, not only was Yu Huang unafraid of her, but she even hugged her tightly. This puzzled Naris even more.

If she didn’t know that she and Sheng Xiao were married, Naris would have misunderstood Yu Huang’s attitude towards her.

Naris suddenly said, “Do we… know each other?”

They probably didn’t know each other.

Yu Huang and the others were all ascenders from a small world and had never appeared in Naris’ memories. They definitely didn’t know each other in the past.

Then why did Yu Huang do this?

Did they know each other?

Of course they knew each other!

When Yu Huang walked into the small courtyard, she sensed a familiar soul aura.

The reason she decided to book a room with the tavern owner for a month wasn’t to save money at all, but to find the soul of that familiar old friend and reunite with her!

Yu Huang had told Sheng Xiao about her plan in the room.

She hoped that Sheng Xiao would create a chance for her to be alone with Naris so that she could verify Naris’ relationship with Anna.

In fact, when she saw Naris’ eyes, Yu Huang had already recognized her and sensed the familiar soul aura in her body.

When she hugged Naris just now, Yu Huang realized that a cold aura was surging out of Naris’ chest.

That was clearly the demonic aura of the Icy Night T-Rex!

Yu Huang remembered that after Anna’s identity as a fiendish cultivator was exposed, when the Icy Night T-Rex brought Anna to the abyss to escape, it had pulled out the Heart-Protecting Scale and gave it to Anna.

It was also that escape that made Anna sincerely accept the Icy Night T-Rex.

This demon and human overcame their racial differences and became a couple.

Naris’ soul aura was the same as Anna’s. There was also the Heart-Protecting Scale on her chest.

She was Anna!

Yu Huang wanted to tell Naris that they were once best friends, and her real name wasn’t Naris, but Anna!

But Anna clearly didn’t remember anything. She didn’t remember her, Sheng Xiao, Fourth Brother, or her mentor. She didn’t even remember the Icy Night T-Rex!

If Anna remembered the existence of the Icy Night T-Rex, it was impossible for her not to know that the blue dragon scales on her face weren’t something monstrous at all. It was clearly the T-Rex!
