Murong Xue’s mind recalled that unparalleled ancient attire.
"The inner skirt lines were very form-fitting, and the outer draped white plum blossom cloak was quite grand and classy. Especially that slender waist, simply enchanting. The ink-black hair was lightly tied up, only adorned with a jade hairpin. When she raised her hand to shield from the sun, the exposed skin was really as smooth as condensed cream. Though her expression under the light veil seed cold, her eyes were clear. Bro, this girl is excellent, definitely a beauty, interested?"
Murong Han couldn’t help but flick her forehead: "Stop, what are you thinking?"
Murong Xue, upon thinking of the Holy Daughter’s true identity, quickly dismissed the idea. Although in ancient tis, siblings could marry, as a modern person, such unrealistic thoughts are absolutely off limits, and luckily her brother’s significant other isn’t here.
Not long after, Shengming’s distinctive black skeleton carriage slowly drove up. Its striking color made it obvious to anyone which ’unit’ it belonged to.
Once the carriage stopped, two won dressed in white jumped down from the driver’s seat. Their faces were covered with masks, making their appearance unclear, but judging from their exposed lines, they wouldn’t be ugly.
They had petite figures, walked silently, absolutely practitioners.
The two gatekeepers exchanged glances, each seeing shock in the other’s eyes.
Even the drivers are so skilled, when did martial artists beco as common as cabbages?
The two white-clad won gently opened the carriage door and respectfully spoke inside.
"Reporting to the two Pavilion Masters, we have arrived at Phoenix Building, please disembark."
"Alright." Following the sound, a red and a blue figure elegantly descended from the carriage, causing the black-clad n to brighten with anticipation. However, when those petite figures turned around, they sighed in unison; rely a glimpse of their back had stirred their hearts for the young won, but upon turning, they wore masks matching their attire, disappointing yet unable to conceal their natural enchanting aura.
Two young won, approximately twenty years old, one red and one blue, possessing uncommon deanor, had already handed over their visiting cards at the entrance. Thus, upon entering Phoenix Building, Xuanwu and the others ca out to greet them.
"May I ask, are you the two Pavilion Masters of Shengming?"
Anxiang and Dai Fu slightly nodded, "We are."
"Yue Palace Saintess, Shura Sect Xue Sha, Earth Evil, we are Xuanwu and Azure Dragon from Liuyun Sect. Everyone’s present, please co this way."
As for Holy Water Manor, due to the relationship between Beiming Yi and Shui Yixuan, the two knew each other. Shui Yixuan may not be aware of Beiming Yi’s establishnt of Liuyun Sect, but the always comrcially focused Holy Water Manor never participated in Jianghu affairs. Thus, it had declined to attend this gathering officially, while privately sending Shengming’s two Pavilion Masters, which counted as a manner of participation.
At that ti, the Sky Room Number One revealed an odd and awkward atmosphere. Among the four factions, apart from one from Yue Palace, the other three groups each had two participants sitting around a rectangular table, with fresh fruits, tea pastries, and dried fruits placed on it, hosting in full asure.
"I’ve long heard Yue Palace people are mysterious and enigmatic, and today, truly lives up to its na!"
Xuanwu broke the awkwardness, complinting the Yue Palace Saintess; the white-robed woman heard, tugged her lips, but didn’t respond.
Azure Dragon, sensing the awkwardness, clearly as the host needed to employ usual social skills.
"Apologies for keeping everyone waiting. Since everyone is here, shall we begin?"
"Won’t you introduce us, Azure Dragon?" The white-robed woman slightly frowned, frustrated with Azure Dragon’s oversight.
"Holy Daughter, we are about to start, no need to hurry." Azure Dragon paused slightly, then rose and moved to Anxiang and Dai Fu to politely introduce, "These two are the Dark Blue Pavilion Master and Dai Lan Pavilion Master, two of the Six Pavilion Masters of Shengming."
Anxiang and Dai Fu wore official smiles, stood up, and politely nodded and greeted the white-robed woman and everyone else.
Then looking at everyone, addressed the white-robed woman, "This is the Yue Palace Saintess."
The white-robed woman gracefully rose, elegantly bowed to everyone, then elegantly sat down, her series of actions fully demonstrating her noble and refined manner, yet without making one feel awkward or unpleasant, this moderation, she handled quite well.
