1612 Court Banquet 1

De Fu’s voice arose at Ronghua Palace. He said loudly, “The Phoenix Girl is here!”

The King was seated quietly on the throne, without much concern. He was the King so he did not need to be worried, but people from Piaomiao Pavilion were different.

Elder Qianji and Zhao Dier were no longer as arrogant as before. After all, their worst enemy – people from the Cangyan Door and people from the Snow Territory whom they did not dare offend, were all there. So for them, the Phoenix Girl was more sacred than ever. After all, they could not be the only school who did not get the Golden Rolls.

So Elder Qianji and Zhao Dier were both quite nervous.

Wuxing was next to them. As the Senior Brother, Wuxing had a position at the court as well.

!!

He was not as nervous as them. Confidence was all over his handsome face, and he seemed to be calculating something.

After the Phoenix Girl walked in, people from Piaomiao Pavilion rose to show respect to her.

After they got up… they subconsciously followed the Phoenix Girl’s direction, but… both Elder Qianji and Wuxing were shocked.

They could not believe what they saw next to the Phoenix Girl.

Wasn’t that… Lingyun?

They had been looking for the woman for days and so had Wuxing, but they could not find her until today, when she herself showed up right in front of them.

And she was with the Phoenix Girl!

Elder Qianji was confused. He almost forgot to sit down, but kept thinking about it over and over again.

What was she doing with the Phoenix Girl? Did the Phoenix Girl take her away after their encounter at Huais.h.i.+?

However, she needed upper-grade pills, which were only available at Piaomiao Pavilion. The Phoenix Girl could not have gotten them. So why did she leave with the Phoenix Girl?

He just could not figure it out.

As for Wuxing next to him…

He was shocked, then he smiled briefly.

It was a good thing that he ran into Lingyun at this moment.

Lingyun seemed to have worked out the antidote and detoxified herself. She seemed better-looking than before too. He did not truly like Lingyun, so he could not accept her old, hideous look. He could not even pretend to like her, but Lingyun seemed very pretty at the moment, and that made him feel more comfortable.

Then she could be more useful than just making drugs.

She must be trusted by Gu Chaoyan, so apart from the drugs he needed, he could even ask Lingyun to say some diplomatic words, so that many things could work out well.

The Phoenix Girl seemed young and beautiful. If Lingyun was capable enough and helped him, so that he could approach the Phoenix Girl, who could possibly fall for him… then that would save so much trouble!

Within a short period of time… Wuxing seemed to be planning all kinds of things that could bring good benefits to him. He seemed angry before, but now he was no longer distressed. He was smiling.

It seemed that success was just around the corner.

He turned to look at Elder Qianji, and confidently nodded. Elder Qianji understood and stopped staring.

“The Cangyan Door is here!” De Fu’s voice arose again.
