1613 Court Banquet 2

De Fu’s announcement had just quieted down…

It was very quiet at Ronghua Palace, with no one saying a word. People from Piaomiao Pavilion seemed to have dropped the intention of trying to suck up to Gu Chaoyan and they stopped thinking about what happened before. They were all smiling and drinking tea as if they were so innocent.

Gu Chaoyan also started to be cautious.

She was also sizing up people from Piaomiao Pavilion while they were sizing up Lingyun.

She had met Zhao Dier and Elder Qianji, but this man next to them was a stranger to her. Nevertheless, she was almost certain that he must be Wuxing. He must have been summoned here because Elder Qianji told him about Lingyun’s existence. Why was she certain that Elder Qianji knew Lingyun – well, their facial expression exposed everything.

!!

It was going to be a very exciting show. Gu Chaoyan was thinking inwardly.

The people from the Cangyan Door walked in.

They greeted the King politely who returned with a slight expression. Then they greeted the Phoenix Girl kindly.

“I am Mu Ning, the Young Head of the Cangyan Door, greetings, Phoenix Girl.” Mu Ning greeted her politely before saying, “It should have been my father who is here to see you, but my father is too old to travel, so I have been sent.”

Gu Chaoyan looked at Mu Ning.

The Cangyan Door, as Huang Fu mentioned, is almost as capable as Piaomiao Pavilion, but people from the Cangyan Door seemed patient, and more polite too.

They had arrived at the Saint Divine Land a few days ago, but she had not been summoned to see them in the court. People from the Cangyan Door did not insist on meeting her either, and they seemed quite sincere at the moment. They were definitely better-behaved than the arrogant people from Piaomiao Pavilion.

“You are welcome, Young Head Mu Ning,” Gu Chaoyan replied with a smile.

Not far away from the gate, Zhao Dier gritted her teeth and burst. “Hypocritical!”

Mu Ning ignored her, but continued to take a seat.

The atmosphere at Ronghua Palace was becoming very subtle after people from the Cangyan Door arrived.

The two sides seemed to calculate in trying to bring each other down.

Gu Chaoyan ignored them. She just continued to drink her tea whilst watching the show of the two sides.

Some time pa.s.sed, and the King said nothing.

Soon De Fu’s voice arose. “The Head of the Snow Territory is here!”

The Head of the Snow Territory?

Gu Chaoyan was very curious.

Snow Territory…

Huang Fu did mention it before, but that was the only thing he talked about – Snow Territory, the two characters, that was all.

So who on earth was the Head of the Snow Territory?

Gu Chaoyan turned in that direction.

In came a slender silhouette dressed in white. He only had jade ornaments around his waist and he had sharp and clear facial features. He walked forward quietly, looking n.o.ble and elegant.

Well…

Gu Chaoyan admitted that he must be the best-looking and most n.o.ble man she had ever seen apart from Zhou Huaijin.

When he walked in, he did not even take a look at the King, but came to Gu Chaoyan directly. He did not waver as he looked right into her eyes.

He came to Gu Chaoyan and looked down at her from a high point, saying coldly and quietly, “It has been a long time, Feng Le.”
