Skinwalker Belle – Chapter 221 – Really Embarrassing for Us Blue Star People

Finally… safe.

After confirming that Long Teng had left, Lin Fan’s nerves, which had been stretched taut for days, finally relaxed.

From encountering Long Jingyun, to faking her death to help Long Yan awaken his Bloodline, to changing into Long Xueqi’s Skin, and then to scheming against Long Wu and killing her to seize her Skin…

Every step had been like walking a tightrope over a bottomless abyss. The slightest misstep would have meant being smashed to pieces.

Now, she had finally landed on solid ground, for the time being.

Relying on the Skin System’s near-perfect disguise ability and Long Wu’s complete memories, there was no way anyone could guess. Never mind that Long Teng was only at the peak of the seventh level; even if a god descended from the heavens, they would never suspect that their precious daughter’s body now housed a soul from another world.

“System.”

Lin Fan called out in her mind.

A blue screen of light, visible only to her, unfolded before her eyes.

【Current Skin Worn: Long Wu】

【Quality: Mythic】

【Talents: Intermediate Dragon Bloodline, bloodline affinity】

【Physical Constitution: 1876 (4697 after adding 50% of original body’s stats)】

【Mental Strength: 1667 (4635 after adding 50% of original body’s stats)】

After adding her original body’s attributes, her strength was solidly at the peak of the sixth level.

Judging from the stats panel alone, Long Wu’s body was considerably weaker than both Long Ningshuang’s and Long Xueqi’s.

But Lin Fan’s gaze was fervently locked on the two entries: “Intermediate Dragon Bloodline” and “bloodline affinity.”

Long Wu was only sixteen.

A sixteen-year-old early-stage sixth-level Dragon Clan girl with an intermediate pure bloodline and bloodline affinity—her future held infinite possibilities.

If Lin Fan hadn’t intervened, with this bloodline affinity talent, the child born from Long Wu’s union with Long Jingyun would very likely have had a bloodline purity reaching the level of an advanced Dragon Bloodline.

Now, this ability was in the hands of Lin Fan, who could fuse the Bloodlines of her Skins.

This potential was far beyond that of any Skin she had ever acquired.

This was a true trump card.

As her mind and body completely relaxed, an indescribable wave of exhaustion washed over her.

Lin Fan didn’t want to do anything right now except soak in a nice, hot bath.

She directly used her privilege as the princess of Border Dragon City, summoning servants to prepare the finest aromatherapy and bathwater.

Amidst the swirling steam, Lin Fan shed the long dress, long since stained with mud, and submerged herself completely in the warm pool.

The warm water enveloped every inch of her skin, washing away the bloodstains and fatigue.

Half an hour later.

Lin Fan stepped out of the bath, dried her body, but did not put on those complicated garments again.

From her System Storage Space, she took out a set of clothes she had brought from Blue Star.

It was a soft, form-fitting, pure white knit sweater with a slightly wide collar that perfectly revealed her delicate collarbones.

Then, she unhurriedly tore open the packaging of a new pair of black pantyhose, pulling them up bit by bit, starting from her toes.

The silky fabric clung tightly to her calves, knees, and thighs, the black material creating a strong visual contrast with her fair skin.

For her lower body, she wore a pair of black denim hot pants, which fully showcased her legs, made even straighter and longer by the Dragon Clan genes.

Finally, she put on a pair of coffee-colored, 6-centimeter low-heeled leather shoes with a chunky heel.

Click, clack.

Lin Fan took two steps around the room in her leather shoes, a satisfied curve gracing her lips as she listened to the crisp sound of the heels tapping against the floor.

Clothes from Blue Star were still the most comfortable.

She pushed open the door.

Outside, Lu Yuan was pacing back and forth anxiously, like a headless fly.

Reαd οո КаtRеadinɡCαfе

In this heavily guarded City Lord’s Mansion, he felt like a husky that had fallen into a wolf’s den—uncomfortable all over, wanting to run but not daring to.

Hearing the door open, he whipped his head around.

Then, he froze completely.

The “Dragon Clan girl” before him had changed out of her magnificent dress. In its place was a set of clothes he was incredibly familiar with… a Blue Star-style outfit.

A knit sweater, hot pants, black pantyhose, low-heeled leather shoes…

This… this…

Lu Yuan’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. His mouth hung open for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

“Had enough of a look?”

Lin Fan leaned against the doorframe, amused by his ashen-faced expression.

“You… you you…” Lu Yuan pointed at Lin Fan, stammering “you” for a while before finally squeezing out, “Where… did you get these clothes?”

“Brought them from my hometown. Is there a problem?” Lin Fan chuckled lightly and stepped out. “Look at you, so pathetic. You’re a real disgrace to us people from Blue Star.”

That one sentence completely confirmed Lu Yuan’s suspicions.

The expression on his face slowly shifted from shock to elation, and finally to extreme vigilance and complexity.

“Who are you? Why are you here? And how are you a member of the Dragon Clan? And you’ve become a little princess here?” he fired off a series of questions, his voice trembling slightly.

“So many questions.” Lin Fan cut him off with some impatience. “I don’t have time to explain much. You just need to know that I’m from your hometown, and I can take you home.”

“Home?” Lu Yuan’s breath hitched.

“That’s right,” Lin Fan nodded. “But not now.”

She walked up to Lu Yuan, a faint, sweet fragrance drifting into his nostrils.

“I need you to do something for me.”

“What is it?” Lu Yuan instinctively became wary.

“Go to a place called Azurewood City and guard it for me,” Lin Fan’s tone left no room for argument.

She briefly explained the situation.

“Azurewood City is my territory now. There’s also a Rift there that connects to Blue Star, but it’s too small. The highest level it can accommodate is five.”

Lin Fan spread her hands. “In my current state, do you think I can get in?”

Lu Yuan subconsciously glanced at Lin Fan, recalling the terrifying scene in the swamp where she had pierced the seventh-level Long Jingyun with a single claw. He couldn’t help but swallow hard.

“Why should I believe you?” Lu Yuan frowned. “What if this is a trap?”

“Do you have a choice?” Lin Fan retorted.

Lu Yuan fell silent.

Indeed, he had no choice.

Since entering the Rift, he hadn’t seen a single one of his squad mates.

This mysterious and powerful “compatriot” before him was his only lifeline.

Seeing the uncertain expression on his face, Lin Fan knew the time was right and dropped another bombshell.

“You should know Chu Chen, right?”

Lu Yuan’s pupils contracted sharply.

“I’ve already been back to Blue Star once,” Lin Fan said calmly, as if speaking of something trivial. “Chu Chen’s side is already working on developing a stable two-way teleportation channel. I believe it won’t be long before we can travel freely between the two worlds.”

“Your mission is to hold the fort for me in Azurewood City, clean up any disobedient riffraff, and await further instructions. Once the channel is stable, you can return to Blue Star whenever you want.”

The amount of information was too much, and Lu Yuan’s brain short-circuited for a moment.

Return to Blue Star…

Chu Chen…

This woman had already been back?

He looked into Lin Fan’s calm, golden eyes, struggled for a long time, and finally let out a dejected sigh.

“Fine.”

“I’ll do it.”

He looked up and stared at Lin Fan seriously. “But how do I get to Azurewood City?”

Lin Fan took a beast-skin map from her Storage Space and tossed it to him.

“Here’s the map. Be careful on the way. With your mid-stage sixth-level strength and light-based abilities, you’ll be fine as long as you don’t go looking for trouble.”

“Thank you.” Lu Yuan took the map and offered his sincere thanks.

He took a deep look at Lin Fan, then at the closed door behind her, his expression complicated.

He had a feeling that the relationship between this so-called “compatriot” and the handsome man on the bed was anything but ordinary.

A tale of love and hate between someone from Blue Star and an otherworldly being?

Lu Yuan shook his head, casting the absurd thought from his mind, then turned and strode away.

After seeing Lu Yuan off, Lin Fan felt another wave of weariness wash over her.

She returned to her room. The faint smell of blood still lingered in the air.

On the bed, Long Yan still lay quietly, his breathing steady, his chest rising and falling powerfully. The wounds on his body had visibly healed by more than half.

As expected of the Son of Destiny. His recovery ability was more tenacious than a cockroach’s.

Lin Fan walked to the bedside and looked at his handsome face, slightly pale from blood loss.

Her mind couldn’t help but recall that pervert, Long Jingyun.

For several days straight, that guy had to use “Long Xueqi’s” feet as a pillow every night to fall asleep, which had prevented her from getting any proper rest. She had been on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

Now, she could finally get a good night’s sleep.

Lin Fan yawned, lay down directly beside Long Yan, and closed her eyes.

The moment her head hit the pillow, she fell into a deep sleep.
