Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Ecstatic Dance

Today, Jiang Qin wasn’t using any instruments, just the background track provided by the system.

As the high-energy intro began, she broke into a dynamic dance on stage.

’I have the orphanage director and my unscrupulous agent to thank for this. Without their oppression, I wouldn’t have become so versatile!’

“Too many rights and wrongs in love,

Come to a place of dazzling fun,

His urge and her loneliness combine, with no thought for what’s to come,

A million reasons, and every one is flawed…”

Sparks of energy flew from the stage in every direction.

The lights danced to the beat!

In the audience, the more energetic guests were already on their feet, swaying to the music.

You Wei, ever the showman, cranked up the vibration mode in the booths, turning the entire bar into one massive dance party.

“You say I want the result,

No need to stop in the middle,

You say I should turn around and start again,

Men and women, don’t wait any longer,

Freedom, freedom, I want freedom right now…”

The bold, provocative dance, paired with the music, sent the crowd into a frenzy. Wave after wave of screams erupted.

Wen Jiaqi was ecstatic, waving the glow stick in her hand relentlessly.

If Jiang Qin hadn’t been in the middle of a song, she probably would have started screaming her name.

In the heat of the moment, her Spiritual Body—a white peacock—materialized uncontrollably.

Their father, Wan Xiu, wanted to stop it but had no idea how. He could only watch on in anxiety.

His son and daughter were completely lost in the music, totally forgetting about their old man.

But when he saw more and more Spiritual Bodies materializing throughout the bar, he gave up the struggle.

Jiang Qin’s White Rabbit Spirit Body popped out as well.

The other animal forms saw it and immediately drew near, circling it curiously. Some even nuzzled up against it.

At least seven or eight Spiritual Bodies had appeared throughout the bar.

The Spiritual Soothing they emanated was comparable to an A-level female continuously using her powers.

Many of the males clearly felt the soothing effect.

Beta was another one of the females whose Spiritual Body had emerged on its own.

She had been a little worried at first. After all, her spiritual power was low. If her Spiritual Body remained out for too long, the high energy drain could easily cause her to fall into a coma.

But to her surprise, not only did she not feel tired, her Spirit Sea actually felt like it was surging with more and more power.

It was the kind of feeling you get when you’re being charged up but can’t contain all the energy.

Her spiritual power was overflowing, the excess spilling out in all directions.

Jiang Qin wasn’t feeling as sentimental. Singing and dancing were still tiring, after all. But she felt like her whole body was brimming with power!

…

In a corner, Gu Tianyou felt he was losing control.

“My body… something’s wrong.”

Seeing the pained look on his face, as if he were holding something back, Lan Shaoyu and Bai Mufeng’s expressions changed in an instant.

“What’s wrong?”

“Are you poisoned?”

The two were about to rush him to a doctor when, in the next second, they saw Gu Tianyou revert to his beast form.

A massive Black Jade Tiger crushed their booth.

Both Bai Mufeng and Lan Shaoyu assumed his Riot Value had surpassed the critical threshold, making him unable to maintain his human form.

“Hey, quick! Get an A-level female to Tai Street! Tianyou’s going feral!”

Lan Shaoyu, who was beside him, was responsible for restraining the Black Jade Tiger to keep him from running wild.

But Gu Tianyou showed no intention of struggling. Instead, he roared, “No! I don’t want it!

I don’t need a female’s deep soothing! You want me to be miserable for the rest of my life? You might as well just kill me now!”

“Tianyou, don’t be ridiculous. It’s better to live a bad life than to die.”

A second after replying, Lan Shaoyu froze.

He stared in disbelief at the Black Jade Tiger pinned beneath his hands. “Tianyou, you’re still conscious?”

“Of course I am!”

The Black Jade Tiger spoke, not thinking there was anything strange about being conscious.

“Can you let go of me? This is uncomfortable. I’m afraid I’ll struggle and hurt you.”

He was in his beast form, after all.

His claws could tear through the hides of even the toughest Alien Beasts. He was worried that if he so much as touched his friend, he’d end up tearing off a limb.

Bai Mufeng, having finished his call, also frowned as he observed Gu Tianyou.

“Something’s not right. Let’s get out of here first.”

Without another word, the two of them decided to get Gu Tianyou out of there.

The commotion had already drawn the attention of many people.

Aside from those still lost in the music, the others who were aware of the situation were watching with looks of either curiosity or caution.

The bar’s security team had already arrived.

They were likely hesitating because they couldn’t tell if Gu Tianyou had transformed voluntarily or not.

After all, Gu Tianyou wasn’t acting aggressively, but his red eyes indicated a feral state.

“Let’s go!”

The two men and the tiger rushed out the back door before anyone could question them.

Since the danger had been removed, Zhu Yongkang didn’t send anyone after them.

He was only responsible for security within the bar, not for the security of all Blue Star, after all.

As long as the dangerous individual was out of the bar, where he went was none of his business.

You Wei walked over.

“What happened?”

“A customer suddenly reverted to his beast form. He came with the young master from the Bai family.”

“The Bai family?” You Wei’s brows furrowed in thought.

’He’d been wondering why the Bai family had gone to the trouble of looking for Jiang Qin. He’d forgotten to ask her about it yesterday.’

’Plus, this young master from the Bai family, along with the young masters of two other families, had been coming to the bar frequently.’

’You Wei didn’t think an S-level male would be interested in the soothing of a C-level female.’

’At first, he’d thought the three of them were after him.’

’But they never tried to talk to him or did anything out of the ordinary, so he’d stopped paying them much mind, merely telling Zhu Yongkang to keep an eye on them.’

’Now, it seemed they were here for Jiang Qin.’

“Considering the three of them are important people, I didn’t stop them to demand compensation for the damage to the bar.”

You Wei nodded. “That was the right call.”

’It was just one booth.’

’Chasing after them for such a small amount of money would inevitably make the bar look petty.’

’Besides, they had helped out a lot when searching for Jiang Qin. The bar still owed them a favor.’

“Next time they come, remember to comp their bill.”

“Got it,” Zhu Yongkang replied.

You Wei was leaving Blue Star in about three days, after which Zhu Yongkang would likely be in charge of the bar. That’s why he had to handle these miscellaneous tasks.

***

As the song ended, Jiang Qin was slightly sweaty and a little out of breath.

She saw her Spiritual Body playing outside and didn’t think anything of it. It wasn’t the first time, after all.

“Jiang Qin!!”

“AHHHH, QIN BAO, THAT WAS AMAZING!!”

“Jiang Qin, I want to marry you!!”

’??? What shameless male just said that?’

In an instant, all eyes turned toward the male who clearly had a death wish.

Facing so many stares, the male gave an awkward laugh. “Heh, just kidding… Don’t take it seriously, everyone.”

But inwardly, he was crying a river of tears. ’No, I’m serious! Waaah…’
