"Two Senior Brothers." The accompanying disciple immediately stepped forward and greeted them.
After knowing the situation, the two disciples cupped their hands in greeting. One of them said to Chen Tingxiu, "Elder Chen, didn't the person inside say that he wouldn't see you? Even if he sends word, he might not see you! Don't you think it's inappropriate to keep bothering him? "
Chen Tingxiu said, "I know, I'm not here to see the Palace Lord, but to see the Palace Lord's disciple, Yi Shu. I know her, we're acquaintances, please inform her."
He wasn't a fool. Who was Long Xiu? If Long Xiu said he wouldn't meet him, how would he dare to insist on meeting him?
The two disciples looked at each other, and the disciple nodded. "Alright then, please wait a moment, Elder Chen."
"Thank you." Chen Tingxiu cupped her hands in thanks and watched the disciple leave.
Not long after, that disciple came out, accompanied by a dignified and beautiful woman. The former returned to her position at the door, and the latter was Long Xiu's youngest disciple, Yi Shu.
All of Long Xiu's disciples were accepted before Long Xiu became the Sect Master of Xiao Yao Palace. Long Xiu took a fancy to Yi Shu when she was very young. Yi Shu could be considered as Long Xiu's last disciple. After Yi Shu, Long Xiu didn't have any intention to accept any more disciples. Now that he was the Sect Leader, his energy was no longer focused on this aspect.
Her older disciples had all become responsible. Now that she would occasionally bring this younger disciple out, it could be considered as her gaining some knowledge and accumulating some connections. At the very least, it would be convenient for Xiao Yao Palace to handle matters in the future and pave the way for her future growth.
Yi Shu looked at Chen Tingxiu, who was waiting outside. She lifted her chin slightly and walked down the stairs arrogantly.
Chen Tingxiu had already experienced the arrogance and temperament of this person. She had embarrassed Peng Youzai back at the Heavenly Jade School, so she was already used to it. She immediately went forward with a smile and bowed. "Miss Yi."
Yi Shu asked coldly, "Elder Chen, what are you doing here?"
Chen Tingxiu looked at the people around her, extended her hand and invited politely, "Miss Yi, may I have a word with you?"
Yi Shu didn't comment and followed him outside to the old pine tree. "Elder Chen, Palace Master said that he won't see you. It's useless to look for me. I advise you not to waste your efforts."
Chen Tingxiu smiled and said, "It's the same to see Miss Yi. I came to the Wan Shou Clan and found out that you are here, it would be rude of me not to come and greet you. "
Yi Shu didn't believe that the other party was just being polite. "Don't beat around the bush."
With limited time, Chen Tingxiu did not beat around the bush and asked: "Miss Yi, Palace Master wants to see Niu Youdao but not me, why?"
Yi Shu glanced at him coldly. "Is the Palace Master's business something you can inquire about?"
Chen Tingxiu hastily said, "I don't dare, I don't dare. It's just a little strange. That Niu Youdao has always looked down on Xiao Yao Palace. Why is Sovereign treating him so courteously?"
Yi Shu sneered, "Don't put Xiao Yao Palace in your eyes? What right did he have to look down on Xiao Yao Palace? Elder Chen, are you trying to drive a wedge between us? "
"No, no, no! I've known him for many years, and I know what kind of person he is. Of course, there is one thing that I have to admit. This person is indeed a rare young talent in this world, and he is absolutely outstanding among the young talents. I'm afraid there aren't many who can surpass him … "Chen Tingxiu praised Niu Youdao, and at the same time, paid attention to his expression and reaction.
This was not the first time he had met this person. He knew that this person was conceited and thought highly of himself. Of course, he also had the confidence to be conceited.
As expected, an uncomfortable expression flashed across Yi Shu's face. She said disdainfully, "He's just a frog at the bottom of a well. Did he say anything about looking down on Xiao Yao Palace? "
Chen Tingxiu replied, "He didn't."
Yi Shu sneered, "Then how do you know that he doesn't put Xiao Yao Palace in his eyes?"
Chen Tingxiu muttered, "How should I put this? Miss Yi is a smart person. There are some things that I don't need to hide in front of you. In order to take over Nanzhou, Heavenly Jade Sect did not have a good relationship with this Niu Youdao. Speaking of which, Heavenly Jade Sect even suffered a loss in his hands. When the incident happened, I warned him in person that Heavenly Jade Sect took over Nanzhou with the permission of Xiao Yao Palace and the other two sects. I told him not to interfere. However, he said that the three sects didn't forbid him from interfering, and that those who are capable should take over. He even said, 'Don't use your connections to intimidate others.' He said that when he was in Qi Capital, he even took care of the disciples of Heavenly Fire Order. "
This was pure nonsense, but to him, it didn't matter. He wasn't afraid even if he confronted him face to face. So what if he insisted that Niu Youdao said that?
The corner of Yi Shu's mouth subconsciously curled up. She said indifferently, "He's right. I've also heard that he severely injured a Heavenly Fire Cult disciple. If someone hadn't stopped him, he would have killed the Heavenly Fire Cult disciple in front of everyone. I know the Kun Linshu that he injured. At that time, he caused quite a commotion. Even the Palace Lord noticed it. "
Chen Tingxiu sighed, "He doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Heavenly Fire Order didn't care about him, but if they really wanted to take care of him, how could they not? However, he didn't think so. Instead, he thought that he had a brilliant plan. It's understandable. He's a young talent, after all. Ever since he was an abandoned disciple of the Shangqing Sect, his path has been smooth sailing. He has never suffered any losses, and no one can stop him from doing anything. He does have the capital to be conceited. This guy looks modest on the surface, but only those who have been in contact with him for a long time would know that he's actually very arrogant. He thinks highly of himself and considers everyone beneath him! "
Yi Shu mocked, "This is just your one-sided statement."
Chen Tingxiu said seriously, "Miss Yi, this isn't my one-sided statement. It's an example that everyone knows about. In the Shangqing Sect, when the Yan Supreme Court Song Jiuming was still in power, the Shanghai Sect relied on the Song family to struggle at death's door. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a dog raised by the Song family. Song Jiuming's son is only one word different from your name. His name is Song Shu, and he's also a disciple of the Shangqing Sect. Logically speaking, Song Shu's position in the Shangqing Sect is imaginable. Who in the Shanghai Sect dares to touch the Song family? "
"But Niu Youdao is different. He doesn't care about the Song family at all. A mere disciple of the Shanghai Sect actually doesn't care about the Yan Supreme Court. Don't you think it's funny, Miss? Who would believe it? But Song Shu's son, Song Yanqing, was slaughtered by this little disciple of the Shangqing Sect. "
"Speaking of the Heavenly Fire Sect, Miss should know about it. It's one of the three main pillars of the Qi Kingdom. Kun Linshu is an outstanding talent among the disciples of the Heavenly Fire Sect. But so what? Who would dare to kill Kun Linshu in the territory of the Heavenly Fire Sect? But he did it. He did what others don't dare to do, and he still managed to escape unscathed. "
"There's another person that I don't know if Miss has heard of. She's the matchmaker of Qi Capital's Fu Fang Garden. She's a world-famous beauty. Countless men have always wanted to take her as their personal pet. But for so many years, not a single man has succeeded. And after Niu Youdao went to the Qi Capital, he once told the disciples of the Heavenly Jade Sect that a famous flower has no owner and only waits for heroes. I must pluck this flower! Miss, don't you think this is arrogant? There are no heroes in the world in his eyes. Only he can be considered a hero. Then, as expected, he really plucked the flower that no one could pluck. The matchmaker of the Qi Capital really left with him! "
Yi Shu sneered. "She's just a slut. Is she worthy of being called a famous flower? Is a man who puts in so much effort for such a woman worthy of being called a hero? I can't beat a coward! "
Chen Tingxiu said, "What Miss said makes sense. There are still a few other examples that don't need to be mentioned. They're not worth mentioning to this kind of person. But just these examples alone are enough to show that this guy is arrogant. He's conceited to his bones. I think that other than a few Supreme Martial Artists, no one else is worthy of his attention. Logically speaking, what right does he have to meet the Palace Lord? Doesn't he know his place? But he still came. It's obvious that he thinks he has the right! "
Yi Shu slowly tilted her head to look at the deep mountains under the night sky. Her eyes flickered.
Chen Tingxiu said again, "Of course, I'm indeed trying to sow discord. But I'm really uncomfortable. I have to say something. It's the Heavenly Jade School that pays tribute to Xiao Yao Palace. He didn't pay any tribute to Xiao Yao Palace. I really don't understand and want to know why the Palace Lord would rather see this kind of person than me. "
Yi Shu turned her head and scolded, "Are you dissatisfied with the Palace Lord?"
"No, no …" Chen Tingxiu denied repeatedly.
In the end, Chen Tingxiu didn't get to see Long Xiu. But when he left, he was in a good mood. Although he was respectful in front of Yi Shu, Yi Shu was still inexperienced in his eyes. If it wasn't for the background of Xiao Yao Palace, she would be nothing.
When he returned to the mountain pavilion, Chou Shan was still waiting there. When he saw Teng Qingshan, he asked, "Did you see Long Xiu?"
Chen Tingxiu sighed and shook his head. "He still doesn't want to see me."
Actually, after Long Xiu rejected him, he went to see Long Xiu personally. He didn't expect to see Long Xiu. His main purpose was to see Yi Shu.
"Brother Chen, rest early." Chou Shan gestured with one hand. His tone showed that he had done his best.
"Thank you!" Chen Tingxiu clasped her hands in gratitude.
After he left, Chou Shan asked the disciple, "If you didn't see him, why were you gone for so long?"
The disciple replied, "I didn't see Long Xiu, but I saw Long Xiu's female disciple. The two of them chatted for a while, but I don't know what they said."
Chou Shan was silent for a while, then said, "Go and bring Niu Youdao over. If he asks why it's so slow, just say that it's because of the delay in reporting to the sect."
"Yes!" The disciple accepted the order and left.
Chou Shan looked at the darkness around him and left in a flash …
Under the moonlight, Niu Youdao paced back and forth in the courtyard.
Yuan Gang came out of the house, walked to his side, and looked up at the sky. "Does it take so long to report? Even if he didn't agree, it wouldn't take him so long to reply, right? Why do I feel that there's a problem? "
Niu Youdao stopped in his tracks. "It is a little strange."
At this time, Guan Fangyi also appeared, waving her circular fan. She walked over and said with a smile, "What's going on? I haven't agreed to meet you yet. Now that Long Xiu has become the Sect Leader, his attitude is indeed different. "
The speaker didn't mean anything, but the listener heard it.
Hearing this, Niu Youdao glanced at her. He looked back and met Yuan Gang's gaze.
At this moment, Zhou Tiezi led a Wanshou Sect disciple over. The disciple cupped his hands and greeted, "Mister Niu, Palace Master Long has agreed to meet you. Please follow me."
Yuan Gang cut in, "Why did you only reply now?"
The disciple said, "Xiao Yao Palace is an important guest, and we shouldn't disturb him. I also need to wait for the sect's reply. Sorry to keep you waiting."
Since he said this, what else could they say? They had already given him face by agreeing to pass the message for him.
Niu Youdao turned his head, "Hong Niang, come with me."
Yuan Gang looked at her reaction with the corner of his eyes.
The circular fan in Guan Fangyi's hand froze. She said in surprise, "I go with you? Didn't you say that you can go alone? "
Niu Youdao said, "I thought about it. I think I should go with you."
