On the other hand, Hong Chen, who was helping to tidy Yue Yao's hair, gently nudged her arm, snapping her out of her daze. Then, the two of them said in unison, "We are willing to go with Master."
Mu Fanjun grunted in acknowledgment, then closed her eyes and said nothing else.
After helping her with her hair, the two maidservants stood to the side and watched over her. Then, the two maidservants stepped forward to help Mu Fanjun with her makeup.
The lines of her face gradually became more defined, and her eyebrows became thicker and darker, forming a pair of straight eyebrows. It was obvious that this wasn't the first time the two maidservants had helped Mu Fanjun with something like this. Soon, Mu Fanjun's face lost all traces of her feminine beauty. She was now a man sitting in front of her dressing table.
She opened her almond-shaped eyes to the mirror. Her gaze was cold and intimidating. Mu Fanjun stood up, and her maidservants quickly helped her straighten out her heavy gray robe.
The master and disciple trio left the Nine Heavens Palace. Standing on the steps outside the palace, Mu Fanjun cast a cold glance at the mountains outside the palace. With a flick of her sleeves, she swept up Hongchen and Yue Yao, who were at her sides, and flew into the air.
Halfway up the mountain at the foot of the Nine Heavens Palace, there was a small hall that was usually responsible for handling the miscellaneous affairs of the Realm Beyond Heaven. Originally, it was overseen by Mu Fanjun's eldest disciple, Huyan Taibao, but now, it was under the control of her second disciple, An Ruyu. An Ruyu stood outside the small hall, watching as the figures disappeared into the horizon. Her expression was tense, and her fists were tightly clenched in her sleeves. Recently, she had been filled with anger, but she couldn't express it in front of Mu Fanjun.
Who else could it be other than Miao Yi? She never dreamed that Miao Yi would actually hook up with the Lady Boss of Tempest Tavern. It was one thing for him to hook up with her in secret. At worst, she could just ask him to sever their relationship. But why did he have to make such a big deal out of it? Everyone in the world knew that the Lady Boss of Tempest Tavern had already become Miao Yi's woman. He was obviously trying to make the Lady Boss his legal wife.
If her daughters were his legal wife, and the Lady Boss was his concubine, she might have been able to accept it.
Now, how could An Ruyu endure this? She was already making do with the situation and was prepared to marry her daughters off to Miao Yi. But Miao Yi didn't appreciate her kindness at all. He would rather have a pair of used shoes than her daughters. Didn't this mean that both of her daughters added together couldn't even compare to the Lady Boss's pair of used shoes?
What was even more outrageous was that Miao Yi was actually willing to give up everything for a broken shoe. He didn't even want the high position and generous salary that many people dreamed of, and actually betrayed them. It wouldn't be a big deal if it was used on her daughters, but it just had to be used on that broken shoe. An Ruyu was so furious that her lungs almost exploded.
She recalled how she had delivered Miao Yi his clothes like a fool, and even helped him change his clothes with her own hands. An Ruyu wished she could tear Miao Yi apart alive.
Her twin brother, Shopkeeper An Zhengfeng, was almost beaten to death by her on the spot. Ou Yangguang and the twin sisters were not spared either. All of them were scolded to death, and all of their anger was directed at the people around them …
At the Western Constellations Palace in the Sea of Constellations, there were visitors. Two monks, one old and one young, had come to visit. They were none other than Grandmaster Qi Jie and his disciple, Ba Jie.
Li Feng and Left Emissary Li personally came out to welcome them, and led the master and disciple straight in.
On the way to the main palace at the back, Ba Jie suddenly said, "Left Emissary Li, I heard that Miao Yi is in the Western Constellations Palace?"
Li Feng turned to look at Ba Jie, scrutinizing him from head to toe. He frowned slightly and said, "Little Master, do you have any advice for me?"
Sensing the displeasure in Ba Jie's tone, Grandmaster Qi Jie said, "Left Emissary Li, my disciple doesn't have any other intentions. It's just that my disciple and Miao Yi are close friends. He came with me, and I had the intention of paying him a visit along the way. I have no ill intentions. "
His words were still trustworthy. Li Feng stopped a random person along the way and ordered him to bring Ba Jie to see Miao Yi. Then, he led Grandmaster Qi Jie inside.
The Eastern Courtyard of the Western Constellations Palace was Miao Yi's current residence. At this moment, all thirty-six of the Sea of Constellations' Supreme Yao Kings gathered in the Western Constellations Palace had been invited by Miao Yi to a banquet.
Actually, Miao Yi wasn't the one who wanted to treat them. He was now one of the five great Constellations Masters of the Sea of Constellations, and he didn't have the habit of lowering himself just to get on good terms with his subordinates. Ever since he became a Cave Master, he had always kept a clear line between his subordinates and his subordinates.
However, the Lady Boss insisted on treating him to a banquet. She understood the principle of a husband and wife following each other's lead. Even though it was her idea, she still forced Miao Yi to host the banquet.
The Lady Boss's Tempest Tavern's staff had all arrived, including cooks and all other necessities.
Inside the pavilion, the thirty-six Supreme Yao Kings sat to the left and right. Miao Yi and the Lady Boss sat side by side behind the long table at the head of the table. The carpenter and stonemason had changed into new clothes and were standing behind the two of them. During the banquet, the Lady Boss frequently raised her cup and chatted with the various Supreme Yao Kings. Very quickly, her relationship with the various Supreme Yao Kings grew closer.
The Lady Boss was obviously very good at socializing. Even though she was actually the one presiding over the banquet, she did her best to emphasize Miao Yi as the main character. She only did her best to play the role of a foil, pushing Miao Yi to play the role of the host.
Miao Yi allowed her to do as she pleased. He wasn't used to using this kind of method to control his subordinates. Ever since East Arrival Cave, he had always been known for being tough with his subordinates. He had slaughtered quite a few of his own subordinates in the past. To him, there was no point in hosting a banquet like this if he wasn't strong enough.
The atmosphere inside the pavilion was very harmonious. Everyone was eating and drinking happily.
Just as the banquet was about to end, the confucian scholar suddenly came in from the side and whispered something into Miao Yi's ear. Miao Yi was taken aback. He turned around and said, "Let him wait for now."
The confucian scholar nodded and left. The Lady Boss shot him a glance, then turned back to the crowd and said, "Dear Supreme Yao Kings, don't be fooled by the fact that I'm sitting beside your Middle Host right now. My status here is extremely awkward. Even now, your Lord Host still hasn't decided when he's going to marry me. Sigh! I don't know if another woman will suddenly sit in this position one day. "
The crowd chuckled, but Miao Yi rolled his eyes and raised his cup to fill it with wine.
The White Boned Yao King smiled and said, "Madam, you're overthinking it. Even the heavens and earth can bear witness to Fifth Lord's heroic actions for Madam. It's not something an ordinary person can or would dare to do. How could he do so without sincerity? I believe Fifth Lord is considering the current situation. If nothing unexpected happens, the next time we meet will be the time of Madam and Fifth Lord's wedding. So Madam, you don't have to worry too much.
The Lady Boss sighed and said, "I don't know what your Fifth Lord is thinking, but I'll have to rely on your auspicious words. It's just that there are all sorts of rumors going around about me now. I'm sure everyone has heard a lot of it?"
The Emerald Sea King said in a clear voice, "Madam, you don't have to take the words of a despicable person to heart. I don't dare to say anything else, but if any of my subordinates dares to gossip, I'll definitely pull out their tongues." The group of Supreme Yao Kings immediately agreed.
Who didn't know how to speak good words? So to Miao Yi, there was no point in hosting this banquet. Maybe these people were just gossiping behind his back.
"I have no way to thank all of you for your kind intentions. I just happened to have prepared some small gifts to show my sincerity. Take them as a greeting gift. "The Lady Boss smiled and clapped her hands lightly.
The carpenters and stonemasons behind her immediately walked to the seats of the Supreme Yao Kings. Small wooden boxes and gift boxes were placed on the tables of each Supreme Yao King.
'There's even a gift?' Miao Yi turned to look at the Lady Boss, who was slowly placing her wine cup to her lips and observing the reactions of the people below with a slight smile. His hand tugged at the Lady Boss's skirt, clearly asking, 'What kind of gift is it?
Pulling my skirt sneakily in front of everyone. What kind of problem is this? ' The Lady Boss looked indifferent on the surface. She held the wine cup in one hand and took a sip, but her other hand was lowered. A sharp, jade-like finger fiercely poked the back of Miao Yi's hand, causing him to retract his hand in pain.
Liking this man was one thing. Even though she loved him to the core, she couldn't hide his flaws. She couldn't pretend that she didn't see Miao Yi's flaws. Even with his current status, he still couldn't get rid of that commoner's aura. He was used to doing sneaky things, such as pulling his mistress's skirt in this kind of situation. This was a lack of upbringing.
Miao Yi expressionlessly rubbed the back of his hand. On the surface, he acted as if nothing had happened and slowly took a sip from his wine cup, but deep down, he was gritting his teeth.
The Supreme Yao Kings below opened their gift boxes and saw ten pills glowing with a faint purple glow inside. One of them exclaimed, "Basic Immortal Pills?"
When the Supreme Yao Kings saw this, they quickly opened their gift boxes as well. Sure enough, there were ten Basic Immortal Pills in each of their boxes.
The crowd of Yao Kings took the pills and examined them in their hands. They loved these gifts very much.
The Supreme Immortal Pill was exclusive to the Six Sages. Other than the people close to the Six Sages or the trusted subordinates of the Six Sages, no one else had the chance to enjoy it. This bunch of Demon Kings had never tasted the Supreme Immortal Pill before. They finally had the chance to see it for themselves.
Miao Yi looked at the Lady Boss suspiciously, thinking, 'These can't be the pills I gave you, right? I gave them to you, but you gave them to these guys? '
When he first came back from the Vitality Sect in the external realm, he gave her a thousand Basic Immortal Pills.
"That's right. They are indeed Basic Immortal Pills." The Lady Boss smiled. "Before Tempest Tavern was destroyed, my grandfather had someone send some to me. However, I didn't expect Tempest Tavern to be destroyed by your Lord Fifth. Not long after, I was snatched away by him. Coincidentally, I still have these Basic Immortal Pills with me and haven't had the chance to use them yet. Since this is our first meeting, I'll take them as a greeting gift. I hope you won't mind. If I've offended you in any way in the past, I hope that you can forgive me. From now on, we're all family. Please don't hold any grudges against me. "
This was quite a generous gift. Even though it wasn't much when divided among all thirty-six Supreme Yao Kings, it was a total of three hundred and sixty Basic Immortal Pills. This was equivalent to giving out thirty-six million low-grade Orbs of Will in one go. Who would dare say this was a small gift?
However, the Supreme Yao Kings felt a chill in their hearts as they secretly exchanged glances. This woman was indeed Yun Aotian's favorite granddaughter. Just the fact that Yun Aotian was willing to give her so many Basic Immortal Pills proved that Yun Aotian had never given up on this granddaughter of his. He had always regarded her highly.
No one suspected that these Basic Immortal Pills were given to the Lady Boss by someone else, because they all knew that only the Six Sages possessed them. For the Lady Boss to throw out several hundred of them at once, it couldn't have been anyone else other than Yun Aotian.
Miao Yi thought to himself, 'So it was a gift from Yun Aotian.'
"Let bygones be bygones. Who would still hold a grudge against him? I, Lie Huan, will be the first to go against him. Besides, how could we not mind such a generous gift from Madam? We've all benefited from Madam this time. We can finally have a taste of Basic Immortal Pills. "Supreme Yao King Lie Huan cupped his fists and smiled.
The Yao crowd also cupped their fists in thanks.
"Everyone, don't thank me too early. I'm not giving this gift to you for free. Firstly, your Lord Fifth hasn't officially married me yet. Now that you've accepted my gift, you have to help me urge him. Even if he isn't anxious, I am. Secondly, you can't pretend that you didn't hear the rumors about me outside. If you see them, you have to speak up for Little Sister, "the Lady Boss said with a smile.
She looked serious, but in truth, she didn't expect anything from these people at all. Did she need them to speak up for Miao Yi? Did she need them to shield her from the rumors? She was just saying it out loud. With a good reason, she would be able to talk things out in the future.
"Of course," the Yao crowd replied.
After the banquet was over, the Lady Boss hooked her arm around Miao Yi's and walked out of the pavilion together.
When the Yao crowd had all left, Miao Yi immediately asked, "Your grandfather still secretly gave you Basic Immortal Pills?"
The Lady Boss rolled her eyes at him and said, "If my grandfather had given me Basic Immortal Pills, would I still be at my current cultivation? You were the one who gave them to me back then. "
"What?" Miao Yi stopped in his tracks and retracted his arm from her grasp. He was both annoyed and amused as he said, "It's one thing for you to give away the gifts I gave you to someone else. How dare you say that the gifts I gave you were from your grandfather? There's no need to embarrass your grandfather like that, is there? Do you think your grandfather would care? "
