Chapter 2266 The Dance of Deception
The sight of Gautier made Aora and Gwain furrow their brows.

It wasn’t that his skill was particularly formidable. Rather, they were all too familiar with his energy flow. His inner strength stemmed from the same lineage as theirs, yet his mastery seemed even purer.
“Mr. Gwain, Aora.”
Gautier clasped his hands toward them with a smile. “Both of you stand unmatched in martial arts. Now that you’ve joined our assembly, one of you will take down Emmanuel tomorrow, and the other will eliminate Yorick. You’ll be hailed as national heroes. What could be more glorious?”
“Hmph! Even if you hadn’t said a word, I would have killed Emmanuel to avenge the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce!”
Aora gritted her teeth. “I’ll handle Emmanuel. As for Yorick and all that patriotic nonsense, none of it concerns me.”
“That’s excellent!”
Gautier beamed. “With a warrior of your caliber in our alliance, our chances of victory have only grown stronger. And what about you, Mr. Gwain?”
Gwain let out a cold snort. “What grand hunt? All I see is a pack of misfits and fools running wild. If I want someone dead, why would I need the help of a bunch of nobodies like you?”
The remark instantly ignited fury among nearly everyone present.
He was even more ruthless than the martial arts masters of old legends.
Gautier’s expression tensed, but he forced a flattering smile. “Of course, we all know your prowess is unrivaled. You’ve always stood shoulder to shoulder with the Northern Wolf Warrior, and everyone has high expectations for you. No one is more suited to carrying the banner of the nation’s martial peak. So perhaps

Just as he was about to persuade Gwain to target Yorick, a melody drifted down from higher up the mountain.
The hauntingly beautiful strains of music pulled everyone’s attention upward, disrupting Gautier’s
momentum.
A grand wooden pavilion stood perched on the mountainside, an exquisite structure that seemed to float above the cliff
of Divine Mountain. Recently built, it was a marvel of craftsmanship, as though an ethereal sanctuary had taken shape in midair.
To ordinary onlookers, it was a mystery. But those in the know understood that Isabella had constructed it. And as for her
even fewer were privy to that knowledge. purpose
“Look! There’s a fairy up
there!”
“What’s she doing? It looks like she’s dancing!”

lost all interest in Gwain and his so–called unrivaled skill. Their gazes were locked in fascination, their awe- struck expressions verging on reverence.
Chiara followed their gaze, then scoffed.
It was Yuna.
Tonight, she was dressed in a way that left little to the imagination. A sheer silk gown draped over her frame, whispering against her skin with every movement. The color of her undergarments was one thing, but she had also left her pale, slender waist and navel bare. She exuded an intoxicating blend of elegance and allure -what man wouldn’t be captivated?
Though Nathan had ridiculed her, claiming she no longer deserved to be counted among the Four Beauties, the one who felt the most threatened wasn’t Yuna herself. It was Chiara–the only one among them who was already married.
“It’s Miss Yuna!”
“Heavens, is she really about to dance in the sky pavilion?”
“This is pure artistry! Absolute perfection!”
A chorus of ecstatic voices rang through the crowd, brimming with unrestrained admiration.
The spotlight that had been on Gautier was suddenly stolen.
Yuna made a grand entrance, her every movement exuding grace as she struck a series of elegant poses. Yet, she did not begin her dance right away. Instead, she lingered, allowing anticipation to build, letting the excitement in the air reach its peak.
“Master, what is that woman up to? Did you tell her to do this?”
Inside a wooden cabin, Rosa stood behind Isabella, watching as the performance unfolded.
“I did not.”
Isabella gazed at Yuna in silence for a long moment before letting out a quiet chuckle. “Perhaps she wishes to follow in her mother’s footsteps.”
“Her mother?”
The girl in red was visibly startled. “Master, you know who her mother is?”
“You still don’t?” Isabella’s lips curved faintly. “If she weren’t my sister’s daughter, how else could she have inherited nearly seventy or eighty percent of her beauty?”
“What?!”
Rosa was utterly dumbfounded. To her, Yuna had always been a woman who loved to put on a show, rely g solely on her looks to leave an impression. Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that Yuna came from such a distinguished lineage.
“She may long to follow in my sister’s footsteps, but she lacks the talent to do so. Let her play her little game.”
With that, Isabella turned and walked away.

“Hmph, I just hope she doesn’t disgrace the sect!”

Rosa, however, refused to leave. She remained behind, determined to see what nonsense Yuna was about to pull and just how far she would take it
But Yuna had a keen sense of timing. Just as the restless murmurs in the crowd reached their peak, she finally spoke.
“Heroes and warriors of the world, our meeting today is truly a stroke of fate. I am Yuna Tanner, and I humbly greet you all!”
“Miss Yuna!”
“Why are you up there?”
“What are you trying to do?”
Voices rang out from the crowd, particularly from the men eager to strike up a conversation. After all, the charm of one of the Four Beauties was impossible to ignore.
In the mundane world, there was an unspoken rule–when two women were equally stunning, the one with more boldness and charisma would always captivate more admirers.
“Good question!”
Yuna cast a dazzling smile at the men below. “I wish to perform a dance for everyone here. If you find it to your liking, I hope you will extend your support to my uncle.”
“A dance?”
“Support your uncle?”
The crowd was taken aback.
Gwain, too, was caught off guard. He had always assumed Yuna harbored feelings for him, believing this performance was meant to encourage him–an act of devotion before he ascended to the pinnacle of martial arts and claimed the title of the strongest.
Never did he imagine that he had completely misread the situation. Yuna’s dance was not for him at all.
“Miss Yuna, who is your uncle?” someone in the crowd called out.
Gautier was just as intrigued. Yuna was Teddy’s daughter–by that logic, her uncle should have been Colin, who had long since perished. Could this be yet another case of the dead returning to life?
To everyone’s astonishment, Yuna’s lips curled into a proud smile.
“My uncle is none other than Mason Morgan, a man who has made extraordinary contributions to our country’s farming industry and has fed billions!”
A ripple of shock spread through the crowd.
Confusion followed almost immediately.
“Miss Yuna, isn’t your father Teddy? How did your uncle suddenly become Mason? What kind of convoluted family drama is this? If your family has endured some tragic twists, why not share them so we can all have a

A mocking voice rang out, drawing attention as the crowd instinctively parted.
The Zelinsky family–one of the Big Four–had arrived.
To everyone’s surprise, it was Magnus leading them today, with no sign of Ezra.
Yuna clenched her fists, her fury barely restrained, but she had no choice but to ignore Blake’s taunts. Taking a steadying breath, she composed herself and spoke with solemnity.
“The truth of my origins has finally come to light. I am not Teddy’s daughter. I was merely his adopted child. My mother was none other than the first–generation Maestro Moretti, Jane.”
The moment her words fell, the crowd erupted in shock.
It was almost too astonishing to believe.
“Hah! Don’t fall for her nonsense!”
Blake scoffed, despite knowing the truth. “Teddy is dead, and this woman has lost her backing. Now she’s fabricating a grand origin story for herself, using the oldest trick in the book–just another attention- seeking stunt for fame and sympathy!”
