"Little Xie? Are you sure you did not see wrongly? "Fei Yan was slightly taken aback.
Qiao Chu rubbed at his nose and said: "I don't think so. Although her looks have changed, but even if you beat me to death, I would not mistake that pair of eyes. Moreover ….. I feel that not many people would be able to imitate Ye Sha and Ye Gu's imposing manner."
If he had only seen someone who looked like Jun Wu, Qiao Chu might not be so confident. But he had clearly seen that among the three people beside Jun Wu, two of them had an air that was highly similar to Ye Sha and Ye Gu. That was definitely not a mistake.
Fei Yan narrowed his eyes and the corners of his mouth curled up into a sinister smile. Since Jun Wu had come here personally, the birthday banquet this time would surely turn into something highly exciting!
The two of them chatted for a while more and then dispersed, like they did not know each other at all.
The Pure Grace Palace was still bustling with activity. The teams from the Twelve Palaces who had come to offer their well wishes were almost all present and the other smaller powers who were scattered around did not even dare to say a single word before the Twelve Palaces.
Gu Xin Yan came into the main hall under the warm welcome of the Pure Grace Palace's disciples. Upon her clear and pretty countenance, there was only a faint smile, polite but distant. The ruckus around her made her a little impatient but she could only force herself to stand there, chatting and laughing with the people around her.
Among the crowd of people, Gu Xin Yan's gaze swept over the crowd. But when her gaze met a pair of cold clear eyes, she could not help but tremble slightly.
That pair of eyes had moved away in an instant, but it had left a chill in Gu Xin Yan's heart. That chill was mixed with an oppressive heat, causing her breathing to become a little ragged in an instant.
[Jun Wu?]
Gu Xin Yan could not believe her own eyes. She seemed to have seen that familiar figure among the crowd, her gaze involuntarily following that person. Even the words of the Pure Grace Palace's disciples at the side did not enter her ears in the slightest.
"What are you looking for?" A voice tinged with mirth suddenly rang out beside Gu Xin Yan's ear.
Gu Xin Yan stiffened and quickly suppressed the throbbing in her eyes as she turned her head calmly to look at Gu Ying beside her.
On this trip to the Pure Grace Palace, Gu Yi had sent her to travel with Gu Ying and throughout the journey, the two siblings had not spoken much.
"It's nothing." Gu Xin Yan subconsciously hid her own guess. Without knowing why, the danger that Gu Ying posed made her want to erase Jun Xie from Gu Ying's line of sight, not wishing for Gu Ying to notice the existence of such a person in the slightest.
Gu Ying looked at Gu Xin Yan's feigned calm expression and the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile, but he did not ask any further. How could he have missed that flash of palpitation in Gu Xin Yan's eyes earlier?
Gu Ying's eyes narrowed slightly as he swept his gaze over the crowd, trying to find something.
But in the Pure Grace Palace's main hall, there were so many people attending the birthday banquet and the people who had been standing there earlier had already been washed away by the crowd. He was not able to find any clues at all.
Gu Xin Yan discovered that Gu Ying's gaze was constantly searching through the crowd and she could not help but feel a tinge of nervousness rise in her heart. She immediately opened her mouth to say: "I'm tired and would like to go rest first. I'll leave the things here to Big Brother for the time being."
"Alright." Gu Ying raised an eyebrow, the smile on his face not diminishing in the slightest.
Gu Xin Yan's smile was a little forced as she left the main hall under the lead of the Pure Grace Palace's disciples, to head towards her residence.
The Pure Grace Palace Lord's birthday banquet would last for ten days and within these ten days, all the people who came to attend the birthday banquet would be staying in the Pure Grace Palace.
