Urban Seduction: Housewives Club-Chapter 579: The Grace of a Fairy
"You... you used the emergency signal!" Bai You’er was furious. This signal had been prepared by her master for life-or-death situations, as Bai You’er’s strength wasn’t yet at a level where she could dominate the martial world. She never expected Lu Feng to have one and use it so casually.
"If you won’t help me, I’m sure Aunt Bai will!" Lu Feng sneered.
Bai You’er snorted coldly, ignoring him. She didn’t bother to warn Ye Zhilin either, as she believed her master, despite her friendship with Lu Feng’s mother, wouldn’t support his unreasonable behavior.
"She’s coming! She’s coming!" Not long after the signal was launched, someone pointed toward the top of the valley and shouted excitedly.
Ye Fei followed the crowd’s gaze and felt a stir in his heart. He immediately recognized the white figure descending gracefully from the mountaintop—it was the same person he had seen the day before. However, he hadn’t expected this guardian to be a woman and an exceptionally beautiful one at that.
"Bai Yingshi!" Jiang Manjun, sitting beside Ye Fei, suddenly stood up, her voice filled with hatred as she muttered the name.
Bai Yingshi? The number one beauty of the martial world? At that moment, Ye Fei understood why Jiang Manjun had harbored such deep resentment toward the Tianshan guardian. Bai Yingshi was the woman his master had mentioned—the one for whom Jiang Haichen had abandoned his wife and daughter.
"Manjun, don’t act rashly. It’s not her fault," Zhu Yuyan quickly grabbed her daughter’s arm to stop her from charging forward. Although Zhu Yuyan had once resented Bai Yingshi for causing her sister and daughter to lose Jiang Haichen, she had since redirected her love toward Ye Fei. This allowed her to view the situation more objectively and realize that Bai Yingshi wasn’t to blame. After all, Jiang Haichen had pursued her willingly and disappeared heartbroken when she rejected him.
But Jiang Manjun, who had grown up without a father, couldn’t easily let go of her pain. She hissed, "If it weren’t for her, Dad would never have left us!"
Zhu Yuyan sighed. "Your father was the one who pursued her. If anyone’s to blame, it’s him for being too greedy."
"That’s right. We used to only see things from our perspective, but now it’s clear that Bai Yingshi isn’t at fault," Shen Huiya chimed in, having come to the same realization as Zhu Yuyan.
"But..." Jiang Manjun wanted to argue but found herself unable to refute her mother and aunt’s logic. She fell silent, though her heart still struggled to accept it.
Zhu Yuyan and Shen Huiya exchanged a knowing glance. Jiang Manjun’s emotional wound would ultimately have to heal on its own.
As the three women discussed, Bai Yingshi, the guardian of Tianshan and the number one beauty of the martial world, finally landed on the stage. Ye Fei got his first clear look at her.
Like Bai You’er, Bai Yingshi wore a simple white dress with no additional adornments. Her long, silky hair cascaded down her back, and despite her plain appearance, her beauty was nearly on par with Liu Yiru’s. She exuded an aura of purity and holiness that made it difficult to look directly at her. If not for the Xuan Yang Art’s beautifying effects, Bai Yingshi would undoubtedly be the most beautiful woman Ye Fei had ever seen. The title of "number one beauty of the martial world" was well-deserved.

What surprised Ye Fei even more was that this seemingly saintly woman also had a figure as stunning as his mother’s. It was hard to believe that someone who had never been with a man could possess such an alluring physique.
After landing on the stage, Bai Yingshi ignored everyone else and turned to her disciple. "What’s going on?" Her voice was as clear and sweet as a young girl’s, soothing like a refreshing spring.
"Master, it was Lu Feng who launched the signal," Bai You’er said bluntly, not bothering to cover for him.
"Hmm?" Bai Yingshi turned to Lu Feng. She had never liked this son of her old friend—in fact, she found him rather repulsive. He was not only arrogant and spoiled but sometimes looked at her with lecherous eyes. If it weren’t for her friendship with his mother, she would have dealt with him long ago.
"Aunt Bai, it’s her! She slandered our guardian!" Lu Feng pointed at Ye Zhilin and shouted.
Bai Yingshi didn’t give him any face. "I know you made all that up. The only reason I’m here is out of respect for your mother. Now, just tell me who hit you. Don’t say anything else."
"It was me. Do you have a problem with that, beautiful?" Ye Fei suddenly stood up, grinning. Knowing that Bai Yingshi was the figure he had seen the day before, Ye Fei realized that Ye Zhilin was no match for her. To prevent Ye Zhilin from provoking Bai Yingshi further, he stepped forward.
"It’s you?!" Bai You’er exclaimed before Bai Yingshi could respond. She never expected the person Lu Feng wanted her to deal with was the same guy who had "stolen" Xu Zhiyun from her. Seeing him now, her anger flared.
Lu Feng was delighted to see that Bai You’er also had a grudge against Ye Fei. He quickly added, "Aunt Bai, he’s the one who disrespected our guardian and hit me!"
"Him? Then there’s nothing I can do. And he does have the right to disregard the guardian," Bai Yingshi said, stunning everyone. "Because I’m not his match either."
Her words sent shockwaves through the valley. Many knew that Bai Yingshi, aside from being the number one beauty, was also one of the top martial artists in the world. Her beauty alone would have caused trouble if not for her immense strength. It was said that even Jiang Haichen, the former Heavenly Demon Sect leader and a Great Perfection master, had been effortlessly defeated by her. And that was without the added power of the Tianshan’s spiritual energy.
Yet here she was, on Tianshan’s territory, admitting she wasn’t a match for this young man. Everyone looked at Ye Fei as if he were a monster.
"You’re lying! Who in Tianshan could be your match?" Lu Feng shouted. "You’re just making excuses because you don’t want to help me!"
The crowd murmured in agreement. Lu Feng’s words seemed plausible. After all, if Bai Yingshi truly couldn’t defeat this young man, it would be too shocking to believe.
Bai Yingshi didn’t bother to explain. She simply smiled faintly. "Think what you want. You’er, let’s go. It’s good for him to learn a lesson here. Otherwise, his mother might regret spoiling him too much." With that, she took Bai You’er’s hand and swiftly departed, leaving as gracefully as she had arrived.
Bai Yingshi’s fleeting presence had captivated the hearts of nearly every man present, though none dared to pursue her as Jiang Haichen once had.
Of course, Ye Fei was the exception. The thought of pursuing such a beauty had already taken root in his mind. What puzzled him, however, was why everyone seemed so enamored with Bai Yingshi when his mother, Liu Yiru, was even more beautiful.
