It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

She was always one step short of the final step, unable to comprehend the wonderful realm of spiritual brilliance. Sometimes when she was alone, she would think that perhaps compared to her junior sisters, her talent for cultivation was really average.

But Shengsheng encouraged Ming Chuyao from time to time, saying that it was all because of the sect mission that delayed her, leaving her with not much time for meditation... Some people are geniuses who achieve sudden enlightenment, while others are steady geniuses. She is one of the latter and does not have time to devote to meditation, so she fell behind a little.

With the comfort of his junior sister Shengsheng, Ming Chuyao was not affected by negative emotions.

While busy with tasks these years, I have never forgotten to be diligent and hardworking.

but.

——No! I still can’t catch up with them!

——Whether it’s Chang Sheng or Ajiu...no matter how hard they try, they are left behind by them, and the gap is getting bigger and bigger.

"Can I really reach the heights of my ancestors?"

In recent years, Ming Chuyao has asked himself this question more and more frequently.

Chapter 3: The Divine Bird Spreads Its Feathers Out of Love (k)

"Well, I'll pay attention."

Shengsheng's reminder made Ming Chuyao realize his own gaffe.

At this moment, Ming Chuyao, who was famous among the four beauties of Nanhuai and was the focus of everyone's attention, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Xia Li and others, felt ashamed and extremely lost. But she still suppressed all the negative emotions in her heart and cheered up.

When someone came over to introduce themselves, she would smile and nod; when someone approached her to chat and ask questions, she would respond gently... Everything seemed normal; Ming Chuyao would not let herself down in such occasions.

After all, if one of the four beauties of Nan Huai suffers, all will suffer together. Even for Sheng Sheng, she will go all out and maintain perfect etiquette and posture!

in this way.

After countless greetings, small talk and heated conversations, the four highly anticipated girls were finally able to take a break in a corner of the banquet.

"Ah! I am so tired, so tired, it is finally over. This scene tonight is like my nine..."

"Nine what?"

The banquet was held in an extremely spacious attic, divided into three floors.

At this moment, Shengsheng and the others sat down in a room on the top floor. Yan Luoyu started to complain about being tired as soon as she sat down. In fact, it was not just her, Shengsheng was also very tired from the socializing... Mingchuyao and Ajiu were relaxed at this moment and showed signs of fatigue, which showed that they were also feeling uncomfortable but did not say it out loud.

Yan Luoyu, on the other hand, said whatever came to her mind. After all, she was the most powerful person in Nanhuai Valley and was not afraid of anything!

But he suddenly stopped halfway through his speech.

Shengsheng asked curiously, but Yan Luoyu glared at Shengsheng instead.

"This scene is similar to the coming-of-age ceremony I attended for an elder sister in my clan when I was nine years old."

Yan Luoyu originally wanted to say that it was as troublesome as the grand event she held after taking the Nine Pillars that year, with countless people coming to flatter her.

As a result, I realized something was wrong before I could finish my words.

She spoke so quickly because she had already told Shengsheng her true identity. She had been with the other two for a long time and had gone through hardships together, so her guard had dropped... She was so relaxed that she almost let it slip.

Fortunately, I managed to smooth things over in time.

"Well, that's how it is at all big banquets, unless you don't care about the social impact at all."

When he said this, Shengsheng glared back.

——You can't control your own mouth and you dare to blame me? Humph!

Shengsheng is not someone who can bear a loss. If she really suffers a loss and is forced to endure it, the other party should be careful.

"indeed."

Yan Luoyu understood what socializing meant and nodded in agreement. But she almost let it slip that it was clearly Xia Li's fault, because they had high-fived and pledged their allegiance that night in front of heaven and earth, so they already knew everything.

It's strange how much vigilance she can have!

Besides, the other party was too much. He didn't even give in to me on such a small matter.

And he threatens and bullies her all day long!

Therefore, Yan Luoyu decided to fight back.

"......But Li Wangshui, this is your first time to witness such a grand gathering, right? There are real immortals chatting and laughing, and there are no ordinary people interacting with each other. Anyway, the human race's Pingjun City is indeed a bit remote."

"Haha! You guessed wrong, Yan Loli. I have seen Qingyan Huihuang and Cangze Baidi many times... This is just a small scene."

"boast!"

"Oh, would I lie to a little kid like you?"

that's it.

Shengsheng and Little Peacock were talking back and forth, you glared at me and I glared back, with sarcastic words and hidden meanings. Shengsheng didn't want to be dragged down to the same level by the childish Yan Luoyu, but the other party was too jumpy tonight, and she didn't give in even after she threatened her with a voice transmission.

It's totally outrageous!

"Senior Sister Li, someone is reciting a poem for you...Would you like to listen?"

at last.

Ajiu couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted the two people's flirting.

At this moment, someone in the hall on the first floor was indeed reciting poetry for Shengsheng. After the banquet officially began, it entered the warm-up 'talent show' session to create a lively celebration.

The so-called talent shows, in addition to poetry, songs, music and dance similar to those in the mortal world, also include acting, discussing scriptures, preaching, etc.

If an immortal is willing to enter, it would be a chance for most of the spectators.

of course.

At this moment, the banquet has just begun. Even if an immortal king is ready to leave, he will not act immediately. His status and position still have to be respected, so poetry, dance and music are the main activities here.

At this moment, in the central hall on the first floor, a beautiful female disciple from the Jinkuitai, who was either a senior sister or a junior sister, was reciting a poem to Shengsheng... After Shengsheng listened for a while, he found that the poem was original and very elegant.

It’s a pity that Shengsheng was ugly and refused.

Well, she's not really ugly. In fact, she's an elegant beauty.

But it still couldn't shake Shengsheng's mind, there was no surprise that made him exclaim "Oh my!" Gui Surui let Shengsheng exclaim, so Shengsheng lay down on the snow obediently, and Chichan's warnings were useless.

“Excellent work, you can see the effort put into it.”

"Eh? Isn't she Jing Meng from the Great Elder's lineage? We rescued her together that time, why did she only write a poem to thank you and not me?"

Hearing that someone was reciting a poem for Shengsheng, everyone in the room paid attention.

After listening to it, Ming Chuyao praised it very objectively, saying that she sounded like she liked the poem very much. Of course, no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.

Yan Luoyu recognized that the other person was Jing Meng, the only descendant of the great elder's lineage. All the other disciples of Yan Yidao died while defending the medical village, one step ahead of their teacher... Only Jing Meng was the most loved by Yan Yidao. Yan Yidao sensed that the crisis was coming, so he sent her back to the sect on the pretext of a mission concerning life and death.

Jing Meng realized it later and felt regretful and blamed himself.

After that, he worked extremely hard in the reconstruction mission. During the siege of the demon's nest, he almost died and was saved by Shengsheng and Little Peacock who arrived in time.

In fact, it was Little Peacock who really saved Jing Meng, and Shengsheng saved the others.

But because it was Shengsheng who fed the medicine personally, the person he saw when he woke up and opened his eyes was Shengsheng, so even after telling him the truth, his feelings remained unchanged.

What's your intention?

Of course I am extremely grateful and I wish I could work like a cow or a horse to repay the little peacock in the next life, but in this life I just want to give myself to Shengsheng to express his love for me!

This is not...

After Shengsheng politely refused several times, the other party still expressed his love in a subtle way at the banquet tonight.

"I'd rather she write a poem to thank you."

The girl rubbed her forehead.

I don’t know how slow Yan Luoyu is when it comes to emotional matters. She couldn’t even understand the whole passage “I want to walk with you on the immortal path and hold your hand for a lifetime.” I really admire her.

"Eh~?"

Shengsheng didn't feel worried for a while. Just as the person who read the poem to her left, another junior sister came on stage to perform the Ming Chu Yao dance.

The girl raised her eyebrows.

"Senior sister, someone is dancing for you."

It can only be said that at this moment, the reputation of the 'Four Beauties of Nan Huai' in the valley is almost at its peak, and there are many admirers and adorers. Even a naughty child like Yan Luoyu has many people who like her, and they are extremely fanatical.

"......Um."

Ming Chuyao glanced at Shengsheng and saw that his eyes were fixed on the hall on the first floor with a look of great interest on his face.

But I don’t know whether it was intentional or he was really interested in dancing.

With a sigh in her heart, Ming Chuyao also looked away. Even though she was not interested, she still watched it carefully out of respect and politeness.

have to say.

Those who dared to show off their talents at the banquet tonight were quite good. After the dance, the senior sister won applause from the whole building, even louder than Jing Meng who just recited a poem.

After the dancing sister left the stage, seven 'shows' went on, and finally the first immortal king came on stage to perform.

This performance lasted two hours and the audience benefited a lot...

Three incense sticks were specially left on the scene for everyone to taste the tea and savor the experience, followed by an ordinary solo performance of the Yaoqin.

The so-called ordinary refers to the performance just now, which is purely for relaxation and entertainment.

But at the moment the solo ended, an accident happened!

The musician actually confessed his love in public, and the person he confessed his love to was a little peacock who knew nothing about love! You should know that most feathered insects know etiquette, and being polite means being elegant and reserved.

Moreover, in an occasion like tonight, even Jing Meng, who was madly in love with Sheng Sheng, only recited a poem and left calmly after finishing it, maintaining proper posture and etiquette.

As a result, the musician confessed in public, and he shouted to Shengsheng and the others in their room on the third floor.

That's fine.

The musician also said that if Yan Luoyu rejected her love, she would not pester him. As long as he fulfilled his promise, he would perform a peacock dance for her!

You should know that the peacock dance is not an ordinary dance, but a French dance.

Contains the kind of Tao rhyme...

Not only can they fight against the enemy, but those who have watched the dance and learned from it can also gain sudden enlightenment and improve their cultivation, similar to the performance of the Immortal King just now.

"Did you really promise her?"

"Okay, it seems so."

"Didn't you say you couldn't do the peacock dance? Your mother taught you, but you just couldn't learn it no matter what you did."

Shengsheng looked at Yan Luoyu as if she was an idiot, and at this moment, everyone in the attic cast their eyes towards their room.

"...I, I wouldn't, but I lost the bet."

The little peacock hesitated for a moment, then explained reluctantly.

"Huh! Bet, what are you betting with her?"

"It's a one-on-one match in the middle of Feixian chess. I thought I would never lose... Woo~! It's all your fault, Li Wangshui!"

The little peacock spoke more and more quietly.

However, at the end of his speech, he rebounded and even put the blame on Shengsheng.

"It's none of my business! Don't you know your level?!"

Shengsheng was angry.

She has always been the one to push the blame, and this is the first time someone has blamed her. I can only say that she is worthy of being the head of a school, she is simply shameless.

"Why is it none of your business? I asked you to spend more time with me, but you always find excuses!"

When the little peacock complained like this, Ming Chuyao looked over immediately.

Even Ah Jiu, who was concentrating on admiring the scenery, raised his head.

"Ah! She was talking about playing chess."

Shengsheng quickly explained.

Even though she didn't care about Ming Chuyao's feelings, this matter couldn't be misunderstood. She had no interest in a little brat like Yan Luoyu!

"Yan Louli, please speak to me properly."

Shengsheng warned the other party.

Seeing that Little Peacock was still about to argue, Shengsheng was worried that the other party would come up with some new words, so she stopped her immediately. Besides, everyone was paying attention to them at this moment, so it was not appropriate to continue arguing.
