Ye Xiaoman is a famously honest person in the cultivation world. She is loyal and reliable, dedicated to her work, and always shows concern for every handsome young man.
After her undercover ...
Chapter 269 The Young Master of the Demon Clan
The guests entered the venue in an orderly manner under the guidance of the ceremonial officers.
The first person to come to the audience was the young master of the demon clan.
The Demon Realm borders the God Realm, and the two sides have been fighting for years in order to seize territory.
The young master of the demon clan came specially to attend the ceremony and brought a signal of peace, so the dynasty promoted him and Ji Wenyi was the first to meet him.
The young master of the demon clan entered the venue in a mighty manner with a large number of attendants.
Ye Xiaoman was expecting to see a group of furry creatures, but she didn't know that high-level demon cultivators could hide their tails and ears.
The demon cultivators present, out of consideration for adapting to local customs, transformed themselves into the same appearance as ordinary people.
At first sight, Ye Xiaoman was completely attracted by the young master of the demon world.
The young master of the demon world is dressed a bit like a young man from the Miao area.
She wore a short blue jacket with large sleeves, and wide skirt and pants of the same color. The sleeves were three-quarter sleeves with a silver edge, revealing two white and tender arms.
On one wrist he wore a rugged silver gauntlet with tiger-beast patterns, on the back of his hand were several silver chains with gemstones, and on his chest was a gorgeous silver breastplate.
There were two short swords hanging around his waist, a bit like Miao Dao, with carved silver hilts and several beautiful silver chains with silver butterflies hanging down.
He appeared and stood there, his whole body shining with light, his silver ornaments gleaming, and the space seemed to be illuminated by him.
The only thing that wasn't beautiful about him was that he had a thin blue and white cloth embroidered on his head, which looked like a bride's veil. It obscured his features, so his appearance couldn't be seen clearly.
A strange and demonic beauty.
But it cannot hide the fact that this is a young man in his prime, as fresh as a green apricot.
The whole body exudes a delicious aroma.
Ye Xiaoman immediately forgot the tension of carrying out the mission and leaned forward involuntarily, wanting to see him more clearly.
At the same time, she blew out a breath quietly, pretending it was a breeze and trying to lift his veil, but the seemingly thin cloth was like a branding iron and did not move at all.
When the young master of the demon tribe saw Ji Wenyi, he presented him with gifts and only saluted without kneeling.
He did not take off his veil when he was paying his respects.
"Meet the Emperor of the Divine Realm."
A nice boy's voice.
It just seems that he is not in good health and sounds a little sickly.
Ji Wenyi did not blame him. He raised his sleeve and straightened the bowing demon clan young master's body, and said with a pleasant face: "Young master, you have come from afar, no need to be polite, please take a seat."
The young master of the demon clan nodded slightly and was led by the ceremonial officer to the center of the first row of the audience seats and took a seat.
Ye Xiaoman became curious and asked Ji Wenyi via voice transmission: [Why is he covering his face?]
Ji Wenyi looked at Ye Xiaoman. He was indifferent to other people's privacy. He answered every question she asked and recalled a lot of information about the demon clan.
Yue Mushan was born with a congenital deficiency and has been frail since childhood. Recently, it was reported that his condition has worsened, and he can no longer see, so he covers his face with a cloth. Some also say that his appearance has been disfigured by the illness.
It turns out that the young master of the demon clan is called Yue Mushan.
The name is nice.
Afterwards, many dignitaries from the six realms came in one after another.
Ji Wenyi would have a friendly chat with each guest for a few words. The closer the guest came to the front, the more important their status was, and the more he would talk. The guests who came later, he would just nod and raise his hand.
Ye Xiaoman lowered her head and her mind wandered, feeling as if she had forgotten something important.
She recalled the past events one by one, and finally slapped her thigh and remembered.
Sikong Qing and Xiao Chujing once got together to discuss helping her find the only three remaining marrow-cleansing grasses in the world.
Sikong Qing mentioned that one of the plants was most likely in the hands of the young master of the demon clan.
Ye Xiaoman looked at the young master of the demon clan, Yue Mushan, from afar for a while. He lowered his head and seemed to be sitting in a daze. When someone went to talk to him, it was his subordinates who answered on his behalf.
The whole monster looked dull.
Even if he had the marrow-cleansing grass in his hand, he probably ate it to stay alive.
"Master Sikong, I have heard of your great name for a long time."
Ye Xiaoman suddenly withdrew her gaze from observing the young master of the demon clan, and her gaze collided with the two pairs of eyes below.
She gasped.
Sikong Qing and Xiao Chujing also came for some unknown reason.
Sikong Qing entered with his own identity, and Xiao Chujing played the role of his subordinate.
Xiao Chujing and Sikong Qing both saw the woman next to Ji Wenyi and showed some puzzled expressions.
They were not surprised that the woman in white failed to escape and was caught by Ji Wenyi.
They had seen the woman in white up close before and knew that she looked somewhat similar to Ye Xiaoman. They didn't have a particularly strong feeling that day, but why did they feel more and more alike the more they looked at each other today?
It was almost as if Ye Xiaoman was standing in front of them in person.
Ji Wenyi was displeased and frowned.
Just like last time, Xiao Chujing stared at Ye Xiaoman intently as soon as he saw her.
Sikong Qing, who met Ye Xiaoman for the first time, also looked at her rudely.
Ji Wenyi said threateningly, "Master Sikong, what are you looking at?"
The atmosphere in the venue was quite lively, but it became quiet for a moment because of Ji Wenyi's blunt attack.
Sikong Qing replied nonchalantly, "The woman next to you looks a bit like someone I know."
The malicious words, combined with the lawless temperament of the demons, sounded a bit like "Your woman is very good, let me borrow her to play with her."
Ji Wenyi said with a forced smile: "Master Sikong, your reason for chatting up is too old-fashioned."
In diplomatic occasions, it is not advisable for the two to make things too awkward in public.
Sikong Qing bowed and walked towards the audience seats.
After they both sat down, they continued to stare at Ye Xiaoman.
Ye Xiaoman avoided the four fiery gazes below and kept preparing herself mentally.
Her palace makeup was so heavy that they would not be able to recognize her.
There was a shielding array in the palace, so they couldn't search for her.
Calm down, once you get the demon's heart, she'll run away immediately!
While I was preparing myself mentally, Ji Weiming also entered the inner field.
He didn't say a word, didn't even glance at Ji Wenyi, and just stood in the middle of the place, looking up at Ye Xiaoman.
Ji Wenyi tricked Ji Weiming into coming to the capital on the pretext of an engagement ceremony in order to imprison Ji Weiming in the capital for life and to put an end to the thoughts of those noble families who supported King Rui in his uprising.
Therefore, he did not care about Ji Weiming's rudeness. He took Ye Xiaoman with him to accept Ji Weiming's scrutiny with the complacency of being the ultimate winner.
The subtle aura of the two brothers made many guests look around curiously between Ji Wenyi, Ye Xiaoman and Ji Weiming.
"Your Highness Prince Rui." The ceremonial officer reminded in a low voice.
Ji Weiming gave Ye Xiaoman a look that said "wait for me", flicked his sleeves and turned around.
Sitting in the first row, the view is excellent and you can keep an eye on Ye Xiaoman at all times.
The number of hot glances increased from four to six.
Ye Xiaoman began to feel uneasy.
There's a sense of urgency as if a powder keg is about to explode.
Jiaying made the final appearance.
When he appeared at the altar in a sedan chair, all the guests stood up automatically, except for Ji Wenyi, Sikong Qing, Xiao Chujing and the three lawless young masters of the demon clan who seemed unable to perceive the situation around them.
Along the way, the Buddha's voice resounded through the sky, the nobles came to pay homage, monks and Taoists followed, and everyone rushed to worship the Holy Son.
