Chapter 527: Chapter 520: The Esteed of the Three Sects_2
Today’s banquet, the guests had yet to all arrive.
At this mont, outside the hall, the clouds parted to reveal the illusion of night, and the double moons shone as clear as washed silk, like a great silver dam bursting across the sky and spanning the sea, overshadowing the luminescence of the Longevity Lamps that illuminated the eternal city for miles.
Three figures, regardless of order, simultaneously transford into three differently colored Sword Rainbows and landed within the grand hall.
Upon seeing this, the expressions of everyone present were undeniably shocked and amazed.
Legends say, exiled amid the dust for five hundred years, rely a ga.
After a thousand years, breaking through the sea’s vastness achieves carefree liberation.
The word “carefree” refers to these three Carefree Immortals who entered the mortal world.
The strongest of the mortals, three True Immortals.
Heavenly Seal Sword Master, Master Yu.
Cangwu Palace Master, Yin Dufeng.
Master of Taixuan, Su Guanhai.
“Thank you for waiting, please take your seats, esteed immortals,” said Seal Keeper Qing Xuan as she rose to greet them. Being an official of Kunlun, and already having transcended tribulation, though these three were descendants of the celestial lineage from ancient tis and would soon ascend to the noble rank of Golden Immortal upon being granted the Star Crown,
Even before the eyes of the Kunlun Seal Keeper, even if a true Golden Immortal descended into the hall, they could only speak to her as equals.
This respectful address as “esteed immortals” was indeed quite humbly expressed.
The masters of the three Sects of Righteous Immortality exchanged so polite small talk with Qing Xuan before taking their seats.
Baili An noticed among these masters, there was one particularly scholarly and handso man whose gaze kept sweeping over in his direction, filled with a hint of confusion.
He thought to himself that this person must be the Sect Master of Taixuan, Su Guanhai, right?
And the focus of his gaze was not him but Su Jing sitting by his side.
Baili An glanced sidelong at her and saw Miss Jing sitting upright gracefully, with her undistracted eyes deep and remote like twin ancient wells, calm and unfathod.
She appeared utterly oblivious to Su Guanhai’s repeatedly directed glances, as if the man who had just entered the hall was not her father.
Although her deanor showed no change, Baili An still keenly sensed a subtle shift in her emotions.
It was a detachnt colder than that between strangers.
Baili An did not know what had transpired between the parent and child, nor did he intend to delve into their secrets.
He rely felt Su Jing’s current distress, his gaze shifted slightly, feeling sowhat embarrassed and apologetic about the incident that had happened earlier by the lake.
After a mont’s thought, he used chopsticks to pick up a round Frosty atball from the small dish and placed it on the pristine white plate in front of her.
Su Jing glanced sideways at him, her dark pupils and snow-white complexion serene.
Baili An laid down his chopsticks, leaning slightly toward her and softly said, “I noticed you haven’t eaten all day.”
Unsure if she still harbored resentnt about the earlier disrespectful incident, Su Jing did not look at the round atball in the plate, and her gaze indifferently shifted away from his face.
Baili An coughed lightly and added, “During the performance, I saw you glance at the Frosty atballs on my plate a couple of tis, thinking you might like them. If you don’t want sothing sweet, then let’s not eat it.”
Fearing that the atball might be an unwelco sight, he reached with his chopsticks to take it back.
Baili An was completely unaware of how silly his actions looked to others.
Su Jing’s eyebrows slightly raised, and unbeknownst when, her chopsticks stably held between her fingers.
She pressed her hand against Baili An’s approaching chopsticks, her gaze slightly annoyed as she glanced at him, “I have no interest in food, and I didn’t peek at your dish.”
Baili An was stunned, thinking if that was the case, why stop him?
Su Jing flicked her wrist lightly, pushing away Baili An’s chopsticks, and then calmly picked up the appealing Frosty atball.
Looking at the white atball, she said, “But without permission, how could you take away sothing from my plate?”
Her words were mild yet domineering.
Once it’s in her bowl, it becos hers.
Throwing in is fine.
Taking away, not acceptable.
Thus, Baili An watched as she ate the Frosty atball.
She claid to be uninterested, but truly, the look in her eyes told that she probably did enjoy sweets.
Su Guanhai, who was busy conversing and toasting with Yin Dufeng, never shifted his gaze from his daughter. Unaware of the incident at the Bronze Gate, and unaware of the bond of sea demon vine between the two at this mont.
When he entered the hall and saw his aloof and distant daughter seated beside a young man, it inevitably stirred tumult in his heart.
Seeing the young man’s seat, he realized that he was the new master of Xianling City.
But even so, ordinary individuals could barely approach her three-foot radius, so how had this young man managed it.
Full of doubts, Su Guanhai, because it wasn’t the right occasion, had to suppress them.
Who could have expected the young man would be so bold as to take food and put it into her bowl?
At first, Su Jing’s indifferent attitude was calculated within his expectations; Su Guanhai thought there must be so other cause and effect for his daughter, Ah Jing, to be seated next to this young man.
However, when he saw Su Jing actually taking small bites of the atball, Su Guanhai was utterly shocked and speechless.
For a mont, even the action of raising his glass halted.
Of course, among the people present, Su Guanhai wasn’t the only one shocked and speechless.
When Su Jing entered the hall and ascended to her seat on the dais, Ying Xiu, whose gaze had never left her, had a grim and unsightly expression.
anwhile, the young man nad Wu Bu seated at the sa table was completely engrossed in tackling the array of exquisite dishes. Having grown up in hardship, often hungry as a child, his palate, accustod to coarse rice, couldn’t resist the spread of delicious food before him.
