"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Recently, Father has shown signs of breaking through and has been in seclusion to focus on breaking through. The affairs of the court have been temporarily handed over to Second Brother.”White Soaring King replied in detail. Ever since he confirmed Feng Qianqiao's identity, he had spoken more than he had before.
"That's good. I think grandmaster should be relieved!”Feng Qianqiao's tone was gentle, and she was secretly delighted. As the Holy Maiden of this generation of Chun Yang Palace, her grandmaster, the Phoenix Empress, who was once the previous Holy Maiden, was the wife of the first Phoenix Emperor of the Heavenly Phoenix Empire. The Gentle Kiss Soft Sword at her waist was the weapon that the Phoenix Empress carried with her back then. It was later passed down as the symbol of the previous Holy Maidens until now.
In the end, although he rescued the trapped Phoenix Emperor and the two of them worked together to escape, they were also heavily injured and even implicated the baby. This was the reason why the royal family was unable to break through to the Divinity stage and successfully transform into a spirit. This was also the reason why Feng Qianqiao was so happy when she heard that the current Phoenix Emperor was about to break through.
Furthermore, it was rumored that the first generation Phoenix Emperor hurriedly issued an edict to pass the throne to his youngest son. It was an act of loving beauties over the country. It was because her father-in-law, the Palace Master of Chun Yang Palace, Xuan Tian Divine King Lu Yan, was furious when he heard that his beloved daughter had been seriously injured because of the Phoenix Emperor. He personally went to the dynasty to bring the Phoenix Empress back to Chun Yang Palace to treat her injuries and strictly prohibited her from leaving.
The Phoenix Emperor knew that this matter was caused by her recklessness and was filled with regret. He actually went to Chunyang Palace alone and stood quietly for a month to see his beloved wife. He promised his father-in-law that he would rather give up the world than reunite with his wife. Only then did he get forgiveness. After that, the two of them settled down in Chun Yang Palace and never left. However, how many rumors were true or false? Who could say for sure?
"Regarding the matter of the grandmaster, BenGong has orders, but it is inconvenient to speak.”It wasn't that Feng Qianqiao was putting on airs, but she didn't know why she couldn't answer. Before she left, her master had specifically instructed her not to leak any information about her grandmaster's situation.
Seeing White Soaring King's obvious disappointment, Feng Qianqiao also felt awkward. She immediately changed the topic and looked at the people opposite her.
"Seniors, there's no need to be so polite. Just treat me as a new student of the Phoenix Cry Academy.”Feng Qianqiao smiled. He naturally did not want to rely on his identity to gain convenience when he left the palace this time. Otherwise, there would be no way for him to gain experience.
"Then, I'll take advantage of my seniority.”Qu Tongyou also came out to ease the atmosphere. Seeing that White Soaring King had no objections, he immediately continued to host the rest of the Phoenix Feast.
"After the semi-finals, seventy-two people passed! An hour later, the Phoenix Feast began on the rooftop!”
" Young Master Lin, there's something I don't understand. Why did you…" Feng Qianqiao voiced her doubts after seeing White Soaring King and the others leave. When he was climbing the stairs earlier, he had personally seen Huang Jingxiao heavily injured on the ground, but no one had paid any attention to him.
"Huang Jingxiao's evil intentions have not changed. He colluded with his accomplices when we were about to die and once again wanted to eliminate all those who did not have any combat strength. It was all thanks to the Great Salutation overdrawing his bloodline and risking his life to control it. As for those who were in cahoots with him, they had already fled in all directions.”Lin Xuan naturally understood Feng Qianqiao's question. From the moment Huang Jingxiao asked for help, he had guessed that the two of them might know each other, so he immediately explained in detail.
"I didn't expect him to be so despicable!? Young Master Lin, please forgive me. My master and this person's master were from the same sect, so they have some relationship.”Feng Qianqiao's brows furrowed as she heard this. She was furious at her uncle-master's behavior.
"No worries, no worries. However…speaking of which, we are now considered fellow disciples. May I ask if Your Highness Saintess can condescend to change the way we address each other?”Lin Xuan said half-jokingly. Actually, he was also thinking what everyone was thinking. The Saintess was too famous, and it was inevitable that they would be unfamiliar with each other. Lin Xuan also didn't want Feng Qianqiao to become estranged from everyone because of this matter.
"Senior Brother Lin, you don't have to be so polite. You can just call me Junior Sister.”Although she didn't know Lin Xuan's age, someone as strong as Feng Qianqiao was impressed by his chivalrous heart and stunning performance.
"Sister Feng, calling me Senior Brother is not a loss. Big Brother is already at the age limit for participating in the competition this year.”Lin Lang, who was at the side, came over and looked like he had recovered a lot.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Lin and Senior Sister Feng!" The four young masters of Yixian and the people behind them greeted him in unison, but a snore interrupted them. They saw Wang Dashu fall asleep again, just like when he passed the preliminary round. They didn't know if this was his unique recovery method, but the youths immediately burst into laughter. Thanks to him, the scene instantly returned to its initial harmony. The group of youths was unrestrained and intimate with each other.
Looking at the crowd below, Qu Tongyou cursed in his heart. He thought to himself that this bunch of little fellows had hit the snake and followed the stick. Each and every one of them called him senior sister and junior sister so smoothly. This old man still did not dare to call himself master in front of His Highness until now. He then looked at White Ling King, who was sitting beside him. After comparing the two, he felt a sense of balance.
But just as he thought about it, Qu Tongyou also realized that this year's Phoenix Feast was not simple. Disciples from the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Palace and Pure Yang Palace had come to participate in the competition, and their identities were quite special. It seemed that the hidden meaning behind each of them could only be revealed in the future.
After a while, a group of attendants below the stage lined up and began to set up the banquet. The seventy-two seats formed a circle, and everything was ready in an instant. Looking closely at the clothes of the attendants, Cheng Sufeng and the other three were also slightly surprised that they were all under the command of Yi Xian House. However, just as the four of them were puzzled, an extremely familiar voice suddenly entered their ears.
"The four little fellows have done well!”A beautiful middle-aged woman walked up the stairs. It was Yi Jiushi, the owner of Yi Xian Restaurant.
"Greetings, Master!" Cheng Sufeng and the other three were also in high spirits. They were naturally even happier to see their teacher when they cleared the dungeon.
"Aunt Yi, you're teasing me again. However, the following banquet should not be as simple as just fine wine and good food, right?”Lin Lang was so intelligent that he seized the opportunity to start probing.
"You're the only one who's eccentric. It's just that I can't say much now. Encounter such a beautiful scenery, naturally enjoy yourself to the fullest, everyone remember.”Yi Jiushi didn't answer Lin Lang directly. Seeing that everything was arranged properly, she only left a meaningful smile for the youths and left.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan subconsciously turned to look at Feng Qianqiao behind him, only to see that the latter was also deep in thought. Yi Jiushi's words naturally had a deeper meaning. It seemed that he could only act according to the situation.
" Gulp…" It was still Wang Dashu. His voice attracted everyone's attention. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at the decorations in front of him, but the words he said were like enlightenment.
"Eh? Was he going to eat? I'm starving. I have to eat more later.”After waking up, Wang Dashu had returned to his original state, but his simple words combined with the parting words of Yi Jiushi were deep in Zen.
"Dashu Shidi's words really woke up a dreamer. Now that he thought about it, Senior Yi's words were probably referring to good wine and delicacies, but it was not so easy to enjoy.”Feng Qianqiao was enlightened.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qu Tongyou's voice rang out. All the suspense was about to be revealed.
"The time has come. The banquet will begin!" As soon as the order was given, the attendants of the Yi Xian Restaurant immediately presented the delicacies and wine to the guests. For a moment, the place was filled with a fresh fragrance that made people's appetites rise.
Delicious food on top, Wang Dashu seemed to be possessed by Lin Shuo, his mouth almost reaching the roots of his ears. Before Qu Tong You could say anything, the youth immediately picked up a cup of wine and gulped it down as if there was no one else around.
"Everyone here is the winner of this year's Phoenix Feast. On behalf of the academy, I, Qu Tong You, would like to welcome all of you! In the following banquet, the top three will be born.”
"We will obey Elder Qu's orders!" Lin Xuan and the others replied in unison, but they were also full of doubts, not knowing how the top three would be selected.
" Could this be…the Essence Returning Liquid?" Leng Zuiyue, who was beside him, was shocked after taking a whiff. As the person who knew the most about wine among the four young masters of Yixian, Leng Zuiyue naturally knew the value of the Guiyuan Liquid. Even he had been searching for such a pill brew for a long time, because the manufacturing method was extremely complicated and the consumption was huge. Even with the financial resources of the Immortal's Restaurant, it was rare to brew it.
A pot of Origin Returning Liquid was worth at least a hundred qi primeval stones. Moreover, the supply was in short supply. However, the speed and effect of its replenishment of qi essence was worlds apart from the Origin Returning Pill that Lin Xuan had given to Wang Dashu previously.
However, just as everyone was about to feast, a spiritual light that made someone's hair stand on end appeared on the scene again. Four non-spirit pearls shone, enveloping the group of youths and their tables.
"Does this mean that you want us to eat 'light'?”At this point, the depressed Wang Dashu was already unable to complain. He could only pray in his heart that there would not be a scene that would make people's hair stand on end.
However, reality was often unexpected. In the blink of an eye, a group of beauties suddenly appeared in the arena. She had a graceful figure and eight notes in her hand. For a moment, the sound of the sky was lingering, clear and melodious. Unfortunately, no one had the time to appreciate the beautiful music. Looking over, the group of youths suddenly slowed down, as if they were wrestling with someone.
Leng Zuiyue, who was standing at the side, was even more anxious. The " treasure " was right in front of him, but he could not touch it. He was full of complaints, but he could not say a word. It made the young man feel so depressed that he almost vomited blood.
