Chapter 207 The Beginning of Everything, An Ominous Feeling (Please Subscribe~)

As the sunlight streamed in, Princess Kaguya rubbed her eyes, stretched, and sat up from her sleep. She looked around and saw that it was still an exquisite room, with a beautiful sea outside the window.

Princess Kaguya said blankly, "It's not a dream...."

"Of course it's not a dream."

As soon as Princess Kaguya finished speaking, she heard a melodious voice. Princess Kaguya was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw Aoandon walking in carrying two plates, followed by Ari, who was also carrying a plate.

Princess Kaguya quickly said, "Good morning, Aoandon-neechan; good morning, Ari-neechan."

Ali smiled and said gently, "Come and have some breakfast. The breakfast at Liren Pavilion is mainly light, so there won't be any greasy food."

Qingxingdeng rolled her eyes and said, "Give me a break. It's like you Liren Pavilion don't eat oil. I feel like you don't even add much salt. It's really easy to cook for you."

"After all, the most important things for a singer or dancer are her voice, figure, and appearance, so it's understandable."

After A-Li and Aoandon placed the dishes on the table, A-Li said gently, "This is shrimp porridge with some greens in it. The two plates that Aoandon is carrying contain some side dishes. Please try them."

"Oh!"

Princess Kaguya held the small bowl with both hands, blew on it, and then took a sip. The next moment, Princess Kaguya's eyes lit up. What delicious porridge! Although it wasn't particularly tasty, it was still quite good.

"What delicious porridge!"

A-Li said softly, "If you like it, then eat more. Later, Qingxingdeng and I will go to the Pavilion Master's place. Little Huiye, you stay in your room and we'll be back soon to chat with you."

"Yes! Sister Ali, Sister Qingxingdeng, don't worry, I'll be fine!"

Aoandon thought for a moment before waving her hand, and a book appeared in her hand. Aoandon said gently, "Take a look. This is not a ghost story, but a myth, a Western myth, about Kaguya. You should like it."

"Wow! Western mythology... I've never seen it before, it sounds really amazing..."

"Yeah, that's really impressive. Kaguya, you can keep us entertained for a bit, we'll be right back."

"Ok!"

Aoandon sighed and said, "This is really a headache. I never thought I would be invited to meet with humans. It's really amazing."

"Pfft... If they knew you were Aoandon, things would probably get interesting."

"Huh? Even if that's what you say, I'm not the kind of person who would kill someone indiscriminately."

"That's true... Sigh... I really miss Shiraha's cooking..."

Aoandon said irritably, "Ah Li, are you serious? You're leaving tomorrow night, and now you suddenly miss Bai Yu? I've never seen you like this before."

"Huh? Before? I was thinking about it before too, but maybe it's because I'm going back soon that I feel especially homesick..."

“That makes sense... But Ah Li, you, the stunning songstress of Li Ren Pavilion, have quite the refined taste in breakfast.”

"Hmm...it's alright. The quantity isn't much, and the cooking method is quite monotonous. For seven days a week, it's just these few dishes being changed over and over again, with no difference."

Aoandon rolled her eyes and said, "It's just the same old thing, huh... it doesn't sound very interesting. Hey? When are you going to see your sect leader?"

Ali thought for a moment and said, "Before you came yesterday, the sect leader told me to take you to see him at noon tomorrow. As for noon... let's eat and rest first before going."

"Row!"

The three of them ate and chatted, and time flew by. It took them almost two hours to finish breakfast.

It wasn't until nearly noon that Qingxingdeng stretched and said, "Hmm, the weather is really nice... Ali, shouldn't we set off now?"

"Ah... um, but for some reason, I have a bad feeling."

"Eh? What are you afraid of? Two powerful demons. If Lord Seimei were to come, he would probably have a headache. What do you have to worry about?"

"It's not because of danger, it's just that I have a... a very strange feeling..."

"Huh? Is it that serious? We'd better go check it out quickly."

"Ok!"

"Goodbye, Sister Ali and Sister Qingxingdeng!"

"Okay, Kaguya, just wait for us obediently."

"it is good!"

Aoandon put away the paper lantern, and A-Li, with her usual black hair, walked through the Li Ren Pavilion. The maids around them all looked amazed, as if they were shocked by the two people's exquisite appearance and extraordinary temperament.

"That's it?"

"Hmm...Sect Leader, we've arrived."

"Pavilion Master?"

Ali called out, but there was no response. She turned around and knocked on the door again, but still no response. Just as she was thinking, she saw a maid come over and say in a gentle voice, "Miss, and this gentleman, please come with me. The Pavilion Master said that he has specially prepared a banquet to welcome this gentleman."

A-Li frowned, and Qingxingdeng narrowed her eyes, feeling that today's events might be much more troublesome than they had imagined.

Despite saying that, the two of them had no intention of leaving. They nodded and followed the maid in one direction. They walked for a short while before arriving at the door of the room where banquets were usually held.

The maid bowed slightly and said softly, "Miss, this gentleman has been brought here, so I will take my leave now."

Ali nodded and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work. Just let me know that my room doesn't need cleaning for the next two days. We'll pick it up ourselves after we've done the good deed."

"Yes!"

After the maid left, Ali breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Qingxingdeng. Qingxingdeng didn't say anything but just nodded. After hesitating for a moment, Ali pushed open the door. The next moment, both Ali and Qingxingdeng were stunned.

The pavilion master was indeed present, but he was accompanied by an unfamiliar man. The two sat in the main seat and the secondary seat, while on the other side were two other tables, each with a cup of fragrant tea on it.

"Sect Leader, we've arrived..."

Chapter 208 A-Li's Rejection, Qingxingdeng's Ominous Sensation (Please Subscribe~)

At this moment, both Ali and Qingxingdeng understood that after Ali told the Pavilion Master, the Pavilion Master directly told the City Lord that Qingxingdeng had also come, which was why she came today. The so-called coming tomorrow was just a pretext.

Upon seeing the two stunningly beautiful young women standing at the entrance, both the city lord and the pavilion master's eyes lit up. The pavilion master's eyes lit up because Qingxingdeng was so beautiful and aloof; if she joined the Liren Pavilion, they would definitely be two peerless beauties...

As for the city lord, there's no need to say more; he's nothing but a bunch of filthy thoughts. The pavilion master smiled and said, "Ah Li, you've finally arrived. This must be the friend you mentioned. Oh my, what a beautiful young woman in the prime of her life, graceful and elegant, truly stunning."

Ali said softly, "That's right, this is my friend, whom I consider my elder sister."

"Oh! I see. No wonder you two are so close. Come, let me introduce you. This is the city lord of this city that I told you about before, Ali."

Ali nodded and said softly, "Greetings, Lord City Lord."

The city lord stared at the two stunningly beautiful women, who were equally aloof and elegant, until he came to his senses. He stood up, bowed, and said gently, "Please take a seat, ladies."

"Thank you, Lord City Lord." x2

After the two were seated, the city lord smiled and said, "Miss Ali's beauty is renowned throughout the world. I have long desired to befriend her. Some time ago, I saw Miss Ali and this young lady strolling together on the beach, and I was truly amazed. May I ask the young lady's name?"

Aoandon glanced at the city lord indifferently before softly saying, "Ao..."

"green?"

A-Li glanced at Qingxingdeng, who whispered, "Bai Qingdeng..."

A-Li's lips curled up slightly, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes. The city lord paused for a moment and said, "Hiss... This name is indeed quite rare, so it should be... Miss Bai?"

"Ah."

The city lord nodded in realization and then said softly, "Sect Master, you can serve the dishes now; it's lunchtime."

"Oh! Yes, yes, yes! Someone bring the food!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a voice came from outside the door. The city lord smiled and said, "Miss Ali, Miss Bai, please have some tea. This is a top-quality tea that I obtained during my travels."

"Thank you, Lord City Lord." x2

The two of them drank their tea in silence, their expressions remaining unchanged. The city lord did most of the talking, and the pavilion master echoed his words, while Qingxingdeng and Ali listened quietly with expressionless faces.

Before long, a series of exquisite dishes were served. Perhaps because the city lord was present, there were several meat dishes among the food, and wine was also served. It should be noted that at Liren Pavilion, only water and tea were served...

"Come, come, good wine, good food, good weather, and the weather is especially kind today. Ladies, please have a few more drinks."

Ah Li said softly, "I'm sorry, Lord City Lord. Because we need to perform songs and dances, the sisters of Li Ren Pavilion never drink alcohol. Ah Li has never touched a drop of alcohol since childhood, so... please forgive me, Lord City Lord."

"Oh! Right, right, look at my memory! In that case, let's not drink alcohol and just have tea instead. That would be quite fun!"

"Thank you, City Lord. However, Ali still wants to ask, City Lord, what is it that you summoned us here for?"

The city lord breathed a sigh of relief, then clapped his hands and said, "Good! Miss Ali is indeed an extraordinary woman, so generous! Come on! Bring her in!"

Ali and Qingxingdeng were both stunned for a moment, and then they saw the door open and men carrying exquisite gift boxes walked in. The gift boxes were all wrapped or tied with red cloth or red ribbon.

A Li said in a deep voice, "City Lord, what is the meaning of this?"

The city lord smiled and said, "Miss Ali, you are a world-renowned stunning songstress, exceptionally beautiful, elegant and graceful, with a superb temperament and unparalleled charm. I have long intended to befriend you."

"Miss Bai is even more so, with an added touch of elegance to her appearance. The two of them can be described as having stunning beauty. I have always believed that people with similar looks can become friends, so Miss Bai must also be an extraordinary woman."

"This is truly a masterpiece. Both of you possess exceptional talent, wisdom, temperament, and appearance—a rare find indeed, a blessing from the gods..."

After taking a sip of tea, Qingxingdeng said softly, "Lord of the City, please speak frankly. There's no need for further flattery."

"Very well! Since you two ladies are so generous, then I will speak frankly! You two ladies are exceptionally beautiful, and your talents are beyond question. I admire you greatly, and I have prepared a small gift to propose marriage to you."

A-Li and Qingxingdeng frowned immediately, and the city lord quickly said, "Ladies, rest assured, I will not show any favoritism..."

"No need." x2

"Hmm? What did you two say?"

Ali said softly, "Lord City Lord, there's no need. Take the things back. We won't agree to this."

The sect leader quickly said, "Ah Li, please think it over carefully again..."

There's no need to consider it.

The city lord clenched his fist and said in a deep voice, "I want to know the reason."

"The reason? If you want to know, I can tell you. Sister Bai already has a husband, and I also have someone I love. So, we cannot accept the city lord's admiration."

The pavilion master was taken aback and quickly said, "A-Li! What did you say? You already have someone you like?"

“That’s right, we are in love. There is no room for anyone else in my heart. I have made a lifelong promise with her. I am truly sorry that I was unable to inform the Pavilion Master.”

"you you..."

The city lord gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Fine...fine! What a fiercely independent and passionate Shiranui..."

A-Li and Qingxingdeng were both stunned for a moment. The city lord said in a deep voice, "Let's call it quits for today. I was too hasty today and have displeased the two young ladies. Tomorrow afternoon, I will host a banquet as an apology! Come on! Take your things away! So as not to upset the two young ladies!"

"Yes!"xn

A-Li said softly, "Thank you for your understanding, City Lord."

"Heh...then I'll take my leave..."

When the city lord left, the pavilion master naturally followed closely. Ali and Qingxingdeng both saw the city lord whisper something in the pavilion master's ear outside the door before leaving with a cold snort.

"Ah Li...something's going to happen..."

"Um..."

Kraki and the others listened quietly. Akali frowned and said in a deep voice, "What did that narrow-minded man do afterward?"

Ah Li clenched her fist and continued talking about what happened next...

A-Li and Aoandon were not given any trouble, and everything was the same as before. However, this tranquility made the two feel uneasy. In the room, Princess Kaguya was still engrossed in reading a myth.

Qingxingdeng said in a deep voice, "Ali, if nothing unexpected happens, this city lord will definitely do something to Liren Pavilion."

Ah Li sat calmly at the table, sipping her tea, and said softly, "It doesn't matter. At most, they'll just disband the Li Ren Pavilion or expel me. If they want to capture us, they'll know what the real Shiranui is like..."

Aoandon shook her head and said, "No... I feel it's definitely not that simple, A-Li, you might need to be careful."

"Me? And what about you?"

Aoandon said softly, "I am a great demon, and I have always been a legend. Putting aside the fact that I have no scruples, the Liren Pavilion has done me no favors, and I have no qualms about killing people. What about you?"
