Heidi cautiously set up a barrier, not giving Mo Fan any chance to approach her.
Mo Fan decided not to tell her his discovery, seeing how cautious she was. He casually picked up a book and started reading it.
As soon as Mo Fan started to meditate, he would experience the fear of seeing the enormous eyes in the Spiritual World. Meditating was obviously out of the question. Mo Fan also noticed that when he closed his eyes and tried to sleep, the eyes would appear in his mind. It was a horrible feeling; Mo Fan could not even sleep because of them!
Mo Fan took a sip from a bottle of champagne while reading his book. Not long after, Heidi suddenly let out a scream!
Mo Fan smiled. He rose to his feet and headed toward Heidi’s room.
Heidi had taken down the barrier, and ran out of her room wearing just thin sleepwear. Her hair was still wet from the shower, leaving her looking rather alluring.
Her face was quite pale. She did not even pay attention to what she was wearing when she saw Mo Fan.
“Did you see it too?” Mo Fan asked with a smile.
“Assh***, why didn’t you tell me!?” Heidi yelled angrily.
“If I had, you were just going to call me a pervert again,” Mo Fan replied with an innocent face.
Heidi angrily stomped the floor, yet she could not find any words to refute him.
Heidi was planning to meditate just like Mo Fan, since it was part of her usual routine. However, she immediately saw the enormous eyes of a snake when she entered the Spiritual World. It was so terrifying that she forgot about everything and subconsciously ran to the man outside her room.
Heidi no longer dared to go back to her room. She found a bathrobe provided by the hotel and wrapped it around her as she sat in the living room.
She saw the champagne and poured herself a huge glass. She gulped it down right away to suppress the fear she had just experienced.
When she was done, Mo Fan conveniently took a sip from the bottle of champagne too. When Heidi saw him drinking directly from the bottle, her eyes widened. She grunted, “I was going to drink more. Can’t you use a glass!?”
“It’s how I was drinking it before. I thought you wouldn’t mind,” Mo Fan answered.
“You…you…you shameless prick!” Heidi was so angry that her body was trembling. She had never seen anyone drinking champagne straight from the bottle. Was he out of his mind!?
“When are you going to stop calling me the same thing? Let’s just think about how we can make it through the night,” Mo Fan said.
They could not cultivate nor sleep. The old mercenary, Chad was not trying to scare them. The Eyes of Vengeance was indeed a lot scarier than they thought.
Heidi was given a great fright. She was not Mo Fan, who had been through all kinds of situations. He soon returned to normal despite encountering such a terrifying situation. On the other hand, Heidi was completely different. She did not expect this at all. She believed there was no safer place than her Spiritual World. To her surprise, a gigantic snake had appeared out of nowhere. For a second, she had thought she was already dead!
“Aren’t you going to remind them?” Heidi said when she realized Zhao Manyan and Mu Bai were in the same situation as them.
“There’s no way Zhao Manyan is going to cultivate after coming to a new city. As for Mu Bai, if he’s staying in the same room as Zhao Manyan, I doubt he will have the peace to cultivate quietly,” Mo Fan said.
“Why is there someone like you who doesn’t even care about their friends’ safety? Didn’t you see how scary it was!?” Heidi said angrily.
She went out of the room. Zhao Manyan and Mu Bai’s room were right opposite theirs. Heidi believed it was necessary to remind them. She couldn’t let them suffer from the same fright as she did.
“I would think twice about that,” Mo Fan said.
Heidi ignored him. She went to the opposite room and knocked on the door.
Heidi stood in front of the door as she waited. She could hear loud music inside the room. She was a little confused.
A while later, the door opened, but the person was neither Mu Bai nor Zhao Manyan. It was a tanned, sexy, blond woman in a bikini. She swung the door open and said to Heidi, “Are you here to have some fun, too? Come on in, but you have to take off your clothes first, that’s the rule!”
Heidi was stunned. She looked into the room and saw a bunch of women not wearing many clothes dancing under the dim lights while flinging their hair around and twisting their waists. Their private parts were covered with clothes smaller than a person’s palm. In Heidi’s eyes, they were pretty much naked, and yet everyone in the room was dressed in the same fashion.
Swinging, twisting, and pole-dancing, it was Heidi’s first time seeing a striptease party. She quickly slammed the door shut. As she closed the door, she caught a glimpse of Zhao Manyan coming toward her with a bottle of wine, asking who was at the door.
Heidi blushed as she ran back to her room.
She saw Mo Fan sitting on the couch with a mischievous grin.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier!?” Heidi’s chest was heaving from her heavy breathing.
“Let me tell you, you keep scolding me as to what kind of a jerk I am every day, but Zhao Manyan is the real assh*** among us. He can’t even sit still once. He likes being surrounded by bunches of gorgeous ladies.” Mo Fan had long gotten used to it.
“What about Mu Bai?” Heidi believed Mu Bai was a gentleman. He would not mess around like Zhao Manyan.
“He was against it before, but he slowly fell in love with it, too. However, he doesn’t really like foreigners, so if you see any Asian beauties in the room, they are mostly his,” Mo Fan said.
“Perverts!” Heidi cursed.
“See, I’m the actual gentleman among us three. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Miss Brianca about it. She trusts me the most,” Mo Fan said.
“You’re no good either!” Heidi refuted without any hesitation.
Heidi did not stay in the room with Mo Fan. She decided to head out to the hall where the crowd was.
One there, Heidi noticed Mu Bai sitting in a corner under a lamp in the hall. She realized that she had been tricked by Mo Fan again. Mu Bai was indeed not messing around, unlike that pervert Zhao Manyan.

“Here, she’s over here!” Heidi was just about to greet Mu Bai when a familiar voice yelled out at the entrance.
Heidi was very sensitive to sounds. She could tell it was Ferrero’s voice.
Heidi immediately felt disgusted when she glanced at the entrance. In addition to Ferrero, Vani, Zoey, Sofia, and the rest of the students from the European University Institute were here, too. They quickly walked up and surrounded her.
“Damn it, it’s all your fault! Why did you go and provoke the big female Medusa!?” Ferrero was the first to yell angrily. He had completely lost his demeanor of a gentleman.
“What do you mean?” Heidi asked the group of people that had come up to her so menacingly with great patience.
Mu Bai quickly came over to Heidi after seeing what happened. He snorted at them with a cold face, “You still have the guts to come trouble us?”
“It’s your fault in the first place that we are placed under the Curse! Why did you even bother acting like a saint and save a Steel-Armored Beast that was as good as dead? We are all Cursed by the Eyes of Vengeance now!” Ferrero yelled.
Ferrero was utterly terrified. He did not seem to be in his right mind. He did not even bother maintaining his image in a time like this!
“All of you are Cursed by the Eyes of Vengeance?” Heidi asked curiously.
Vani, Zoey, Sofia, and Galba nodded. The fear of seeing the ghastly sight was still lingering in their eyes.
“Your perfume attracted the Medusa Mountain to us in the first place! Their hatred toward you isn’t any weaker than us! It’s not a surprise you are cursed by the Eyes of Vengeance!. Stop putting the blame on us!” Mu Bai was displeased by their attitude.
“None of this would have happened if you hadn’t provoked the big female Medusa! Where are the others? Ask them to come here right now!” Ferrero was the most terrified among them all, and started yelling in the hall.
“Heidi, go get them,” Mu Bai said.
“Alright.”
—
Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan came down not long after.
Zhao Manyan’s face and body were covered by red lip marks. He smelled like booze, too. Ferrero and Galba were infuriated when they saw the guy still had the mood to indulge in sensual pleasures!
“You must be responsible for this!” Galba said.
“What responsible? If Ferrero hadn’t mucked around with his precious perfume, the Medusa Mountain won’t even have come after us in the first place!” Zhao Manyan seemed extremely angry.
He had tried to sleep when he got to his room, as he was feeling very tired. Since Mu Bai was in the room too, there was nothing he had to worry about. Mu Bai would surely cultivate for the night!
However, as soon as he fell asleep, he was scared shitless by the eyes of the snake. Mu Bai also saw the eyes while he was meditating. Zhao Manyan suggested calling a bunch of strippers over to liven up the mood so he could forget about the fear in his mind. Mu Bai was not interested in that, so he went out to the hall instead.
It was not the reason why Zhao Manyan was mad. He had always been a fan of sexy women with long hair and slim waists. It was a pleasant sight when they twisted their hips around, but he was clearly not in the mood today. The women’s hair kept reminding him of golden snakes while their bodies were like the small female Medusae. He was initially planning to fulfill his desires, yet he was feeling even more absent-minded now!
The Medusae could deprive him of his soul, but he would not allow them to deprive him of his passion for women. Zhao Manyan realized he had no other reason to live if he was afraid of women!
“I can’t sleep, can’t make out with chicks, can’t cultivate… at this rate, we are going to be tortured to death before those snakes show up out of nowhere and eat us!” Zhao Manyan swore.
Not long after, Chad and his brother Benz came to the hall too. They were also wearing unpleasant looks. They did not need to ask what was going on when they saw the people that had gathered in the hall.
“We are all cursed by the Eyes of Vengeance,” Chad sighed with a grim look.
