In Douluo Continent, I am the mastermind behind the scenes.

Chapter 91. The Real and Fake Ma Xiaotao (2)

"How could that be?" Ah Ying stammered, "I... I'm not into anything, it's just that I haven't met a better male Soul Master yet, so I'm just looking for a little follower to take care of that kind of problem."

After saying that, Aying's face turned red instantly, perfectly reflecting the feeling of a young girl being caught by her mother secretly playing with toys in her room.

To be honest, the second soul skill of the Spirit Eye Martial Soul is really useful. It can even simulate blushing and adjust the degree of blushing on its own, which gives A Ying a lot of confidence.

"Alright, alright, even if you want to spend your whole life with Miss Ling, we will support you. Life is only a hundred years or so, just be happy and there is no need to follow the rules and regulations left by our ancestors."

Cai Meier was deeply moved. Ever since she was severely injured by Xue Di and her broken arm was reattached, she had become a completely different person and no longer followed the traditions of the Sea God Pavilion.

As she spoke, Cai Meier stepped forward and hugged A Ying in her arms, her little hands constantly stroking A Ying's cheeks.

The skin is real; there are no signs of faking it yet.

But... as a woman, Cai Meier instinctively felt that something was wrong with Ma Xiaotao in her arms, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.

She remembered... that the original Ma Xiaotao didn't have any lesbian tendencies, right? She only went out to participate in the Soul Master Competition for a little over a month, and she already hooked up with Ling Luochen?

In fact, Aying herself is normal in her orientation. The reason she hooked up with Ling Luochen was simply because she was after his ice staff. But she could never say these things out loud.

Ah Ying never dreamed that, with the help of various factors, Cai Meier would misunderstand her intentions and mistakenly believe that she had lesbian tendencies, thus making her seemingly perfect identity no longer perfect.

In an instant, Cai Meier's heart sank to the bottom. What she was afraid of was that both Ma Xiaotaos looked real, but that they both looked fake, because... you don't know if there is a real Ma Xiaotao among them. Without solid information, all actions become restricted.

"Xiao Tao".

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"You're all grown up now, it's time you had a fiancé. Since... you don't have a penchant for marriage, then fine, your teacher and I discussed it with the two sect leaders and we're going to hold a martial arts contest in Shrek City to find you a husband."

"A martial arts contest to find a husband?" Ah Ying pretended to think for a moment and said, "That's fine. If I can choose a husband with a respectable family background and who satisfies me through the martial arts contest, it will put everyone's mind at ease."

After informing Ma Xiaotao of this news, Cai Meier left Seagod Island. Hmm... The fact that the other party did not refuse the martial arts contest to find a husband surprised her. This meant that the other party was completely willing to get married, have children, and settle down in Shrek City.

She does look like the real Ma Xiaotao, but... once the seed of doubt is planted, it cannot be completely erased.

Even if… that adorable, somewhat clumsy girl suddenly appears in Shrek City and, by some coincidence, meets the couple, perhaps the mastermind behind all this is actually trying to do the opposite, making them kill the real Ma Xiaotao with their own hands.

Back in the outer courtyard, Cai Meier reported the whole story to Mu En, Long Xiaoyao, and Yan Shaozhe. For a moment, all four of them remained silent, their faces grim and terrifying.

After a long silence, Cai Meier asked weakly, "Grandpa, teacher, are we still going to hold the martial arts contest to find a husband?"

"The martial arts contest to find a husband is definitely going to happen. We've already said it, so we can't back out now," Long Xiaoyao pondered. "If all else fails, we can go to the Body Sect and spend some resources to ask Ye Xishui to come out of seclusion and help us verify the truth."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. They knew that the machine that could identify the identity of an evil soul master through blood was developed by Ye Xishui. Perhaps she really could find the real Ma Xiaotao from the bloodline level.

After all... the Fire Phoenix Martial Soul is a super Martial Soul, and the fake Ma Xiaotao's Martial Soul must have been simulated in some way.

Once the disguise is exposed, the identity of the fake Ma Xiaotao can be confirmed.

"Alright, let's do it this way. I'll personally go to the Body Sect and invite them to help us select the two Xiao Taos. You can then begin preparing for the martial arts contest to choose a husband. Before I return, don't try to test the two Xiao Taos again. We'll discuss everything when I get back."

As he spoke, Long Xiaoyao walked out of the room without looking back, pretending to leave Shrek City and flying straight towards the Body Sect.

Flying at full speed, Long Xiaoyao arrived at the foot of the Body Sect's mountain in just one hour. He then presented his invitation in a proper manner, as he needed to ask for a favor and had to follow the rules.

Qin Yi only knew that A Ying had replaced Ma Xiaotao's identity, but he didn't know that Ma Xiaotao, who had lost her memory, had returned to Shrek City by some coincidence. He was completely stunned when he saw Long Xiaoyao's invitation.

After becoming a god, he no longer needed to do those fancy tricks. He could see through the souls of most mortals at a glance, and identifying Ma Xiaotao was just a piece of cake. Hmm... he was wondering if there was anything he could do about it.

In both his past and present lives, A-Ying was the first woman to confess her feelings to him. However, he couldn't stand that she had achieved the feat of killing a hundred people, so he directly rejected A-Ying's confession.

If they got together, even if A-Ying stopped looking for men outside, he would still feel uncomfortable. As a transmigrator, he could accept mediocrity, but he could not accept being a cuckold.

After thinking it over and over, Qin Yi couldn't come up with any good ideas, so he met with Long Xiaoyao in the main hall of the Body Sect.

"Brother Qin, we've known each other for a long time, so let's cut to the chase. I'd like to ask you to help us distinguish between the two Ma Xiaotaos. If we succeed, I'm willing to offer you two 70,000-year-old soul bones as a token of my gratitude."

Knowing Qin Yi's personality, Long Xiaoyao didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.

"Is it a real or fake Ma Xiaotao?" Qin Yi pretended to ponder. "Brother Long, if—and I mean if—both Ma Xiaotaos are fake, what are you going to do?"

Long Xiaoyao frowned and said, "Hmm... I haven't considered this situation yet. Let's wait until we find out."

Although Long Xiaoyao tried his best to hide his emotions, Qin Yi still caught them. The other party's voice was trembling, obviously worried about Ma Xiaotao's safety.

After all... the timing of the second Ma Xiaotao's appearance was too coincidental. If it weren't for the fact that the other party's martial soul and behavior were exactly the same as Ma Xiaotao's, no one would have associated two people with such different appearances.
