"There's no need to watch the competition between these people. The real show has yet to begin." Zhuge Yin said scornfully, his gaze falling upon the figure of Gu Xin Yan standing at the back.
Gu Xin Yan stood among a group of youths from the Blood Fiend Palace, her gaze light, but there was no sign of Gu Ying at her side. Among the group of youths, Gu Xin Yan's beauty was attracting more and more attention and Zhuge Yin was highly moved when he saw her. Coincidentally, that hateful Gu Ying was not around and he put on a suave smile as he walked towards Gu Xin Yan.
Gu Xin Yan had been rather distracted the entire day. The words she said to Gu Ying at the banquet yesterday had made her feel rather uneasy and she had sent a disciple from the palace to invite Gu Ying to go out with them today but she had been rejected.
Towards this Elder Brother of hers, Gu Xin Yan really could not figure out his character and her heart was filled with a kind of fear towards Gu Ying.
Truth be told, all along the way here to the Pure Grace Palace, Gu Ying had been inseparable from her like a shadow which had really made her a little nervous. Today, Gu Ying was not around and she felt a little more relaxed. Her pair of beautiful eyes looked around, not knowing what she was looking for, passing over the bodies of the youths one by one, but she was disappointed time after time.
That person did not come.
"Little Sister Xin Yan." Zhuge Yin's voice rang out right in front of Gu Xin Yan. Gu Xin Yan snapped back to her senses and saw Zhuge Yin smiling at her. She was feeling rather helpless in her heart but she still smiled back politely.
"Young Master Zhuge."
Zhuge Yin did not feel that Gu Xin Yan was trying to distance herself in any way and he just leaned over to ask: "Did Little Sister Xin Yan sleep well last night? I hope Little Sister Xin Yan will not take offense to yesterday's incident. I drank a little too much and lost my composure, which made my Little Sister see a joke. "
"Not at all. Yesterday was just a misunderstanding." Gu Xin Yan replied with a smile.
"The Pure Grace Palace's arrangements today were rather boring. Although the Pure Grace Palace has many flowers, insects and fishes, it is rather dull. I saw you this morning that you seemed to be rather interested in those flowers. If there's a chance in the future, I will definitely invite you to the Dragon Slayers Palace to take a look at the flowerbeds there. It is not something the Pure Grace Palace can compare to." Zhuge Yin said with a smile.
Gu Xin Yan was a little speechless. She really did not know why Zhuge Yin was pestering her like this. If it had been anyone else, she would have just ignored him completely, or fended him off with just a few words. But the other party was the Dragon Slayers Palace's Young Lord, and she had no choice but to be wary of him.
The Blood Fiend Palace and the Flame Demons Palace were both fighting for the number one position among the Twelve Palaces and if they were to cross swords with the Dragon Slayers Palace at this moment, it would only bring up new problems.
Gu Xin Yan could only be patient and deal with Zhuge Yin.
The youths on the stage went up one after another. Now, the one standing on the stage was a youth named Lan Ling.
But to those true geniuses who were biding their time below the stage, this little bit of strength was not enough for them to make a move.
Zhuge Yin continued to seize the opportunity to strike up a conversation with Gu Xin Yan. It must be said that Zhuge Yin's looks, status and power were all enough to attract a large number of admirers. But Gu Xin Yan's heart was completely unmoved by Zhuge Yin's advances. She only responded nonchalantly, her eyes involuntarily searching for something within the crowd.
When she saw the figures of Yue Yi and Zi Jin, her eyes showed great disappointment.
The two people from the Shadow Moon Palace were already there but Jun Xie had not shown himself. Looks like he really did not come today.
The emotions in Gu Xin Yan's eyes were secretly observed by Zhuge Yin. That desolation was highly piercing to his eyes and he followed Gu Xin Yan's gaze to look …..
