A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 325 The New King Ascends the Throne
Xiao Jin was bored and started pointing fingers and nitpicking.

"You stinky leopard, shut up if you don't understand! You're a leopard, not a sparrow!" Shen Tang's ears were ringing. If she weren't wearing a formal dress, she would have kicked him.

Shen Li glanced at him with her fox-like eyes, a half-smile on her face. "Oh? You think my drawing is bad? Why don't you come and try?"

"Ha, I'll do it!" Xiao Jin rolled up his sleeves and snatched the item from Shen Li's hand. Heaven knows he had been itching to get his hands on it and had been waiting for him to say that.

Shen Li's fox-like eyes widened as he realized he had been tricked!
Shen Tang was shocked to see Xiao Jin personally doing her makeup. She turned to run away, but he grabbed her and held her firmly in her seat. He even turned her around so that her back was to the mirror.

He pinched her face with his large hand, his playful smile gone, and said seriously, "Don't move! I'm getting serious."

"..." I dare not move! I absolutely dare not move!

Xiao Jin thought the thief fox was easy to draw, but when he actually got his hands on it, he found it inexplicably awkward, as he didn't know what several of the tools were for.

However, there was one thing he recognized: this red box was blush, which could improve one's complexion!
So, as if he didn't care about the cost, he scraped off a large amount of blush onto Shen Tang's face.

He raised an eyebrow, quite pleased. Look at how rosy and apple-like they are, so healthy and delightful!

Xiao Jin then picked up the brightest lipstick and applied it to her lips.

Shen Li and Jia Lan couldn't help but burst into laughter when they saw Shen Tang's drawing, which looked like a monkey's butt. They laughed so hard their stomachs hurt.

"You stupid leopard, are you a spy sent by the enemy country? Are you trying to make sure Tangtang can't face anyone tomorrow and becomes the laughing stock of the people?"

"..." Lu Xiao and Xue Yinzhou couldn't help but chuckle, silently turning their faces away and forcing a smile at the corners of their mouths.

Xiao Jin glared at them angrily, then tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Tangtang, don't listen to their nonsense, they're just jealous!"

Seeing the beastmen's reactions, Shen Tang sensed something was wrong and didn't believe the stinky leopard's words at all! She quickly pushed it away, but accidentally let the lipstick slide across the corner of her mouth.

Shen Tang was on the verge of tears. She quickly turned to look in the mirror, her forehead veins throbbing wildly!
She doesn't look like she's going to a coronation ceremony; she looks like she's going to perform in a circus!
Xiao Jin touched the bridge of his nose guiltily, "This, isn't this pretty? It's reddish, so festive."

Fortunately, before Shen Tang could even lift a finger, Xue Yinzhou couldn't hold back any longer. He lashed out at Shen Tang's rear with his tail and said coldly, "Get out of here and stop causing trouble."

Xiao Jin cursed and swore but dared not fight back; this time, he lacked confidence.

In the end, it was Jialan who brought a basin of water and a towel to wash off Shen Tang's makeup and redo it. Shen Li's skills were simply superb; in no time, she gave Shen Tang a classic and elegant makeup look, making her radiant, with a healthy and rosy complexion, giving her a sense of peace and prosperity.

Lu Xiao patiently smoothed Shen Tang's somewhat frizzy and messy hair, tied it up, and styled it into an elegant and formal hairstyle.

Compared to her usual delicate and charming beauty, she now possesses a greater sense of majesty and solemnity befitting a monarch.

The man had distinct facial features, a hard jawline, and long, broad hands with calluses. He didn't resemble the spoiled sons of wealthy families; instead, he seemed somewhat aloof and distant. However, his movements were surprisingly gentle and meticulous, a stark contrast to his usual demeanor. Shen Tang was also surprised that he was skilled in such delicate tasks as hair braiding.

She was surprised, "You can braid hair?"

Lu Xiao replied respectfully, "I have learned about serving the Mistress in my course."

Their ability to graduate with a perfect score is beyond question.

Jialan had prepared jewelry, a dazzling array of sparkling pieces made from precious gemstones that could practically dazzle anyone. The most eye-catching of all was a string of pearls, each one full and round, of the finest quality. Worn on her slender neck, it made her skin appear even whiter and more like jade.

Jialan looked at the necklace around her neck; her earlobes turned slightly red, but he concealed it well.

Xiao Jin polished the crown until it shone, then placed it in Shen Tang's hair. Gone was his usual recklessness; his movements were exceptionally careful and gentle, and his gaze towards the female was filled with deep affection.

The six of them fussed around in the room for a long time, and then it gradually got light.

A servant entered to remind him, "Your Highness, it's time. We should head to the hall." ...

The day the new king ascended the throne was a rare good day in winter.

The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly.

It was as if even the gods were looking after her.

On this day, the people put aside their work and flocked out of the city, turning the streets into a deserted place, all to witness the coronation ceremony of the new king.

"Look at the sky!"

Wow, so beautiful!

"The person sitting in the golden palanquin must be the new emperor!"

"Ahhhh, I'm so excited, I'm going to faint!"

A loud cry resounded through the sky, officially kicking off the celebration. The crowd on the ground looked up and exclaimed in amazement.

Hundreds of brightly colored birds stretched their elegant figures, pulling magnificent palanquins as they took off from the hall and circled the imperial city ten times.

Where they flew, a dazzling streak of colored light streaked across the sky, like a flowing neon, radiant and eye-catching.

At the same time, countless petals fell from the sky, landing on people.

"Roar!"

"Ouch——"

Many orcs were so excited that they transformed into their beast forms, letting out excited roars as they ran through the city following the beam of light.

In an instant, birds soared through the sky, beasts galloped, and the entire city erupted in excitement.

The whole country rejoiced, and the celebratory atmosphere reached its climax.

Lu Xiao, Xiao Jin, Shen Li, Jia Lan, and Xue Yinzhou led the honor guard in a procession through the city.

They, too, were dressed in magnificent formal attire, waiting to proceed to the hall—both the starting and ending point of the procession—to greet the monarch.

Lu Xiao stood at the very center of the ranks, tall and imposing, clad in a navy and red knight's robe, the classic military attire accentuating his perfectly sculpted physique. The robe cascaded down his shoulders, the gold tassels swaying gently with each step, and the badge on his chest gleamed in the light. He was like a drawn sword, exuding an aura of inviolable sanctity.

The young man following him on the left had a face so beautiful it could topple empires, with captivating and enchanting features, especially his deep blue peach blossom eyes, which shimmered like glass in the sunlight.

Jialan wore a platinum gown that accentuated his slender waist and long legs, with intricate gold patterns extending from his shoulders to the hem. The cuffs were adorned with elaborate pleats, embellished with lace and pearls that shimmered with subtle light as he moved.

He was like a prince who had stepped out of a classical oil painting, so dazzling that people dared not look directly at him.

Even the roughest Xiao Jin was dressed in a proper suit today, with a white shirt underneath, a neat bow tie at the collar, and a bright red boutonniere pinned to his chest, making him look even more dashing.

With handsome features, he would occasionally look up at the sky, a barely concealed smile of excitement playing on his lips, exuding confidence and charisma.

He also carried a gun on his waist in case of any accidents.
