Su Chen knew that Xiaoyaozi was a woman, which was much simpler than seeing through Xiaoyaozi's abilities.

When his foot touched Xiaoyaozi's body, he knew this person was a woman.

He distinctly felt that Xiaoyaozi had two fewer ribs than a man.

And there was another feeling.

The sixth sense.

When he abandoned the five senses.

And then felt with his heart.

Intuition told him that he was fighting a woman.

"No, I'm not a woman, I'm not!" Xiaoyaozi suddenly hugged her head, her expression one of agony.

"Uh..." Seeing this scene, Su Chen felt somewhat eerie.

This was the first time he had seen someone so concerned about their own gender.

He had only suspected before.

After all, Xiaoyaozi could simply be deliberately presenting a man's appearance.

But now he was sure.

Xiaoyaozi even deceived herself.

She was clearly a woman.

Yet she deceived herself into thinking she was a man.

"I am a man, believe me, I really am a man!" Xiaoyaozi cried her eyes out as she lifted her head again.

Su Chen looked strangely at this man who was bawling his eyes out.

What on earth made the other person so desperate to be a man?

"Bro, I also want to believe you're a man, but... you're a woman, isn't being a woman good?" Su Chen spoke.

"It's not good, not at all, I'm not a woman, I am not!" Xiaoyaozi shook her head vigorously.

Xiaoyaozi's ability was deception.

Deceiving people's senses.

She could even deceive herself.

Making her see in the mirror that she was a man.

Over time, activating her superpower and deceiving herself became a habit.

Gradually, she started to believe she was really a man.

To prove she was a woman, she even started pursuing women.

Like pursuing Hua Qianyu...

Xiaoyaozi's desire to be a man had to do with her family.

She was born in a remote mountain village in Huaxia.

Where the customs held sons in great esteem over daughters.

Boys would be spoiled by their parents.

Girls would do heavy farm work and be scolded and beaten.

Xiaoyaozi had a younger brother.

He ate the tasty food first, and wore new clothes first.

While she labored under the scorching sun, her brother would be eating ice cream in the shade.

If only she were a boy, how great that would be.

She wished she could become the brother.

Then, she could be loved by her parents, without the need to do all the strenuous farm work under the sun.

But wishes were just wishes.

The brother was always the brother.

And she was forever the unwanted elder sister.

But one day, her brother went missing.

Her parents looked for him frantically.

But they couldn't find him.

Seeing the painful look on her parents' faces.

Xiaoyaozi was even more pained.

If she disappeared, would her parents look for her like they did for the brother?

If only she could become her brother.

Not only would her parents not have to feel sorrow.

But she would also get to live a life like her brother's.

Unexpectedly, she really became the brother.

At least, in her parents' and others' eyes.

She became the brother.

She was treated with the same love and care.

From then on, she lived the life the brother had.

Even though she knew herself that she wasn't really the brother.

But that didn't matter anymore.

As for whether her parents would look for her if she went missing?

The answer was definitely yes.

It's just that they weren't very serious about it.

In truth, Xiaoyaozi becoming the brother was the first awakening of her superpower.

At that time, she didn't know how to use her abilities.

It was purely her deepest heart's desire.

From then on, she lived for a long time as the brother.

She rejected being a woman.

She always existed with the appearance of the brother.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with being a woman, really." Although Su Chen didn't know about Xiaoyaozi's ordeal, he could see the desperation and pain in Xiaoyaozi's eyes.

The deep loathing and hatred towards knowing she was actually a woman.

"Being a man is the tragedy. Nowadays, for a man to find a wife is very difficult..." Su Chen didn't know why he felt compelled to counsel Xiaoyaozi.

Actually, he could tell.

Xiaoyaozi wasn't inherently bad.

Even though she attacked him, there wasn't a strong intent to kill.

In fact, there was no intent to kill at all.

This was apparent from the start, when Xiaoyaozi only wanted to kick Su Chen, enough to make him fall into her own urine.

If it hadn't been for that, Su Chen might not have talked so much with Xiaoyaozi.

He would have killed her outright.

"Really?" Under Su Chen's various persuasions, Xiaoyaozi looked at him with some disbelief.

"Really, just try it. Return to your original appearance, you might be a great beauty!" Su Chen said with a smile.

Xiaoyaozi bit her lip, seemingly hesitating.

"Believe me, go back to being yourself, you might experience a different life." Su Chen gave Xiaoyaozi an encouraging look.

After much hesitation, Xiaoyaozi's body underwent a transformation.

When Su Chen saw Xiaoyaozi's looks, he was stunned.

He said Xiaoyaozi might turn into a beauty, just to encourage her.

To find her true self.

But unexpectedly, Xiaoyaozi really was a beauty!

Not very tall, about 1.6 meters, with fair skin, an oval face, willow leaf eyebrows... Not a trace of makeup on her face.

A natural little beauty.

The only flaw was that she wore men's clothing.

"Am I, am I very ugly?" Seeing Su Chen completely dumbfounded, Xiaoyaozi said somewhat frantically.

Subconsciously, she wanted to change back into the appearance of a man.

"No, you're beautiful, really," Su Chen said quickly.

Seeing Xiaoyaozi was still in disbelief, Su Chen directly condensed an ice mirror with Inner Strength and handed it to Xiaoyaozi to see.

Although the person in the ice mirror wasn't very clear, Xiaoyaozi could see that she, in the mirror, was truly beautiful...

Xiaoyaozi touched her own cheek with her hand, intoxicated.

To be truthful, ever since she replaced her brother, she hadn't recovered her own appearance.

That is to say, even she herself didn't know how she looked now!

Beautiful, really beautiful!

She even felt that her looks were not less than Hua Qianyu's.

"Girl, with this appearance, why would you want to be a man?"
