Because of all the commotion, plenty of people were already looking this way.

But when Su Yun slapped her, everyone was left gaping in shock.

Who would’ve thought that a woman as beautiful as an angel would hit someone in the middle of a dance like this? Looks can be deceiving.

“You dare hit me?”

Zhang Yuyun clutched her burning cheek, staring in disbelief.

“You deserved it!”

Su Yun answered at once. The [Divine Maiden's Earrings] around her neck came with effects that were a little embarrassing, but their 30% humiliation bonus was the strongest among all her equipment.

Even if she didn’t consider herself, the [Goddess's Collar] was tied to the chances of saving the world.

This woman had dared to reach over and tug at her equipment. Didn’t she deserve a slap?

A slap was getting off easy!

Besides, Su Yun had already held back most of her strength. If she hadn’t, the woman in front of her would probably be on her way to the hospital.

Before long, the commotion caught the attention of the hosts.

Xu Zhengchu and a few friends he’d been chatting with started making their way over.

…

“You, you slut!”

Zhang Yuyun charged forward again, raising her hand to slap Su Yun.

But Su Yun didn’t need to do anything this time.

Chu Feng, standing beside her, grabbed Zhang Yuyun by the wrist. Then he backhanded her with his other hand.

One handprint on each cheek. At least they were symmetrical now.

When he saw her trying to hit Su Yun, Chu Feng forgot all about his rule against hitting women.

“Waaah… Chu Feng, you actually hit me for this woman!”

The slap sent Zhang Yuyun sprawling onto her side. She sat on the floor and burst into tears, snot and all.

Meanwhile, some distance away…

Li Sixuan was filming the scene on her phone, looking thrilled.

If she could capture the two of them hitting someone at the dance, she’d have evidence she could use to threaten Chu Feng.

She could threaten to post the video online unless he paid her.

That was the real reason she’d egged Zhang Yuyun on to start trouble.

The video was recording on her phone, but when she finally stopped filming, the footage on the screen began to flicker.

The video should’ve saved automatically, but it wasn’t in her gallery.

“How could this happen?” Li Sixuan exclaimed, stunned.

The reason, of course, was Su Yun’s Divine Maiden equipment.

[Divine Maiden's Earrings]

…[The preceding text is omitted.] They can block malicious camera signals nearby and detect disguised cave-dwellers.

After detecting Li Sixuan’s malice, the Divine Maiden's Earrings naturally wouldn’t allow any footage of Su Yun to be recorded.

At the same time…

Xu Zhengchu and his group had reached Su Yun.

“Uncle Xu, you have to help me! This bitch actually hit me at the dance you’re hosting. Throw her out!”

When Zhang Yuyun saw Xu Zhengchu, she thought her savior had arrived and hurried to ask for his help.

But as Xu Zhengchu came closer…

He saw Su Yun, the source of the commotion, and instantly froze.

The girl in front of him was…

Xu Zhengchu turned to Chen Shasha and gave her a questioning look.

Chen Shasha solemnly nodded, then saluted Su Yun with a gesture of the Salvation Society.

It really was the Divine Maiden.

How could this be?

Xu Zhengchu had considered sending the Divine Maiden an invitation to the dance he was hosting.

But then he’d thought better of it. The Divine Maiden stood high above them—why would she attend a gathering her followers were holding in the mortal world?

So he hadn’t dared bring it up.

He never expected the Divine Maiden to actually come.

“Mr. Xu, this isn’t what it looks like.” When Chu Feng saw Xu Zhengchu, the host of the dance, approach, he hurried over to explain.

“Uncle Xu, throw this broke-ass bitch out! This is an upscale event. She doesn’t belong here!” Seeing Xu Zhengchu still standing there in a daze, Zhang Yuyun hurried to press him.

Broke? Didn’t belong?

Xu Zhengchu looked at Zhang Yuyun as if she were an idiot.

The person in front of him was the Divine Maiden of the Salvation Society.

She was probably the most noble person in the entire world, and Zhang Yuyun dared to say she didn’t belong?

If anyone didn’t belong, it was this dance he was hosting. It wasn’t worthy of the Divine Maiden. Perhaps only a great hall in the Salvation Society could be fit for her.

As for this woman who’d slandered the Divine Maiden, she was the one who didn’t belong at his dance.

“Miss Zhang, you’ve been making a scene and hurling insults at this dance. I think you’re the one who doesn’t belong here.”

“Miss Zhang, please leave. Otherwise, I’ll have to call security.”

Xu Zhengchu didn’t hesitate. He didn’t care if this meant offending the Zhang family.

Compared to the Salvation Society’s supernatural power, the Zhang family was no more than a colony of ants…

“What do you mean, you want me to leave?”

“I’m the heir to Zhang Group!”

“Believe me, I can get my dad to pull every advertising contract your company has!”

“Why not kick out this woman with her fake jewelry and no connections instead?”

Zhang Yuyun refused to back down and threatened him.

“What you ask your father to do is your business. But you need to leave now,” Xu Zhengchu said.

Soon, two security guards came over and escorted the cursing woman out.

As she left, Zhang Yuyun was still screaming.

“That woman… The sapphire necklace she’s wearing is fake!”

“She doesn’t belong at this dance! She’s the one who should be thrown out!”

…

Su Yun still hadn’t quite recovered.

So all her followers were here?

She’d actually gotten into an argument and a fight with a woman at the party, and her followers had seen the whole thing. How embarrassing…

At least Xu Zhengchu was here. Now the situation could be resolved perfectly.

Still, she could faintly hear people around her whispering.

“Mr. Chu’s date is wearing a fake necklace? No way.”

“Who knows? Miss Zhang sounded so certain. It’s probably true.”

“Heh. It’s so embarrassing for Mr. Chu’s date to wear fake jewelry.”

“Keep your voice down. You might get thrown out too.”

“I can’t believe Xu Zhengchu would side with that woman and offend the Zhang family.”

“Could Xu Zhengchu have something going on with that woman wearing fake jewelry too?”

“Who knows?”

…

The whispers around her reached Su Yun’s ears.

They made her understand all too clearly how frightening gossip could be.

Just then, someone came running from the distance, hurrying excitedly up to Su Yun.

“Miss, forgive my rudeness, but may I take a look at your necklace?”

The speaker was Xu Boyuan, a master jeweler.

He’d crafted countless famous pieces of jewelry.

“Wow, that’s Xu Boyuan, Master Xu—the famous jeweler!”

“Is he going to expose the fake jewelry?”

…

Seeing that the man wanted to examine her necklace…

Su Yun hesitated.

The necklace at her throat was the [Goddess's Collar], an extremely precious item. It wouldn’t be good if anything happened to it.

But in the end, she handed him the sapphire necklace that the [Goddess's Collar] had transformed into.

Naturally, she wanted to calm the commotion and prove her innocence.

But more than that, she wanted the master jeweler to authenticate it and shut up all the people around her who’d been gossiping.

Xu Boyuan put on a pair of disposable gloves and carefully took the necklace.

He studied it closely through a magnifying glass for a while…

“Tsk…”
